We got married in August, and I can't even put into words how amazing Sebastien was to work with. From the booking to final consult, to the day of, he exceeded our expectations above and beyond! We had two videographers that arrived promptly, they were so friendly and fun to work with, and listened to everything I was wanting to see in our video. They were sure to keep us updated during their time at our wedding, while also letting us enjoy our day. To make it better, we received our video so quickly, without compromising the quality. I had given Sebastien very little direction in what we were hoping the video would be, but he understood and the team delivered! I know that years to come I will still tear up watching the video because it captured our day perfectly. I am so glad that we chose Interstellar Films to work with.

We hired Brendan Reiss to film our wedding. Brendan was easy to communicate with and was able to answer all of our questions. The way Brendan filmed our wedding was truly magical. One unique thing Brendan did was filming aerial views of our wedding venue with his drone. He used top of the line equipment to film our wedding and didn’t miss any important shots. The highlight video and long video Brendan provided us was breathtaking. The videos were high quality, and the music chosen truly matched our wedding. We want to say thank you Brendan for your thoughtfulness, and flexibility working with us. The videos you made for us will be something that we cherish forever. You gave us the gift of being able to relive the happiest day of our lives. We cannot thank you enough for all that you’ve done. We highly recommend hiring Reiss Films for your next event!

Hey! Thanks for stumbling upon my business listing and taking the time to read all about me. I'm a passionate creative who strives to create a timeless film that the two of you can cherish for a lifetime. I appreciate authenticity, candid, and vulnerable moments.

Garrett Goerl is the best photographer I have ever used. He was incredibly professional, respectful, fun, and talented. My husband and I do not have much experience in front of a camera, and tend to dislike getting out pictures taken, but Garrett made us feel at ease and also helped us feel more confident in our photos. All of the wedding guests we had had nothing but positive and excellent things to say about Garrett. I also ended up getting fairly sick on my wedding day, and Garrett was not only very flexible with the schedule that became in flux because of this, but also, photographed me so well you couldn't tell that I felt like fainting all day, lol. I appreciated working with him, he was kind, flexible, and hilarious. The pictures came out beautifully and I love that we have so many great photos in our possession now. Thank you for everything Garrett!

I am a phoenix-based wedding filmmaker fully invested in your love story. If I'm being honest, films found their way to me. I clearly remember my parents owning hundreds of VHS and us watching through all of them. There were our favorite classics like Stand By Me, Hook, or The Imitations of life. There was a singular commonality: They caused me to feel. They were raw and used the elements of storytelling at their best. Whenever I help tell your love story, I hope you can look back and feel the love.

I love working with Jay! As a fellow vendor he exhibits the kind of professionalism I look for when recommending a vendor to my clients. Not only do I enjoy working alongside him, I trust him to be a part of my own team because he takes pride in his work and puts the client above his own interests. His work is consistent and crafted with care. His calm demeanor on a wedding day is something every couple needs to have in their life. If I were to get married again I would 100% choose Jay for my own videography.

Hi, I'm Jesse, an award-winning, international wedding filmmaker. I love to tell stories in a strong and original way. My work today is all about STORYTELLING and the PEOPLE that help move your story along. I have been part of so many incredibly personal moments, memories, laughs, tears, and emotions over the past decade. I understand the magnitude of what it is I do. My passion is telling your unique story and I'd love to be the first and maybe only professional you hire to document your life!

I am truly so thankful for Jesse and his team. His talent in catching and documenting special moments on your wedding day is beyond what you can anticipate. The art of taking those special moments and forming a video with music and voice recordings from the ceremony and speeches is not something just anyone can do. I have to say, our wedding videos are BEYOND. The more we watch them, the more thankful we are to have hired Jesse and his team. Besides the fact that Jesse was so wonderful to work with from our first phone call to the day of our wedding, he is so kind and has amazing attention to detail. He caught everything on our video "wishlist" and gave us some of the best tips before the wedding. He asked for our vows, speeches, and ceremony script ahead of time and then incorporated video shots with special words as they are played. All around, incredible! I'd hire him again in a heartbeat and recommend him to no end!

HEY! I'M ASHLEY! Aka, Your Professional third wheel! I am so happy you dropped by! I am a uber bubbly, warm hearted, person who loves to order 3 drinks at Dutch Bros and say its for other people but really its just for me. When I am not spending my lifes savings at Dutch Bros, I am professionally following peeps in love and photographing their stories. I am a lover of true crime and murder podcasts! (But I mean who isnt! I just cant help it!) FUN FACT: I speak switzerdütsch, aka a German slang. My mom is originally from Switzerland and my dad from Jamaica, so you know I am always hungry for adventures (and new places to binge eat at).

Ashley is one of the most caring photographers I’ve ever had. She really went above and beyond even before I booked her. She sent out a timeline of how my session was going to go and even send me suggestions of what to wear. Then came the session, she made me really comfortable in my own skin and made me giggle so much with her awesome humor. I was really worried about how I would look, but when I saw the photos I was so happy I almost cried! She got all my best angles and captured my true personality in those photos!! If you want someone that goes above and beyond, takes care of your needs, and is FUN to work with and captures your best angles, SHE IS THE ONE!!!
