We LOVE telling stories and what better story to tell than one of the best days of your life! We know wedding films can seem similar, but what truly makes them different is you! Your love and passion is the story and we are here to tell it!

Rhys came recommended to us by our photographer (Aesthetiica Photography). His response time via email was quick (always 24hrs or faster), and he was very personable when we met with him via Zoom. For these reasons, in addition to his reasonable pricepoint and solid sample videos on his website, we decided to go with him for our wedding video. On wedding day, Rhys and his team were prompt and easy to work with. They let us enjoy the pre-wedding festivities however we wanted to, capturing b-roll footage quietly and effectively. When moments came to get a great shot though, Rhys and his team provided great guidance and recommendations to capture that moment perfectly, without being pushy. We received our cinematic wedding video two months after the wedding, and the full-day video another month after that, all in the same time window as Rhys's wife giving birth to their child! Whenever we watch our wedding videos, we are flooded with the emotions of the day. We are so thankful to Rhys and his team for capturing the day brilliantly and providing us with a great final product to watch for years to come.

I wasn't born with a camera in hand, but I was born with a passion for telling stories. I started college with dreams of becoming a young adult writer, but a screenwriting seminar taught me that video can tell a story more powerful than words alone ever could. Now, instead of dreaming up fictional love stories, I get to document real ones.

As a fellow vendor, I'm able to comment on a different side of the vendor than most other previous clients. Chelsea is a lot of fun to work with because she gets along with everyone, has clear communication, and keeps the client's interests as her number one priority! I wouldn't hesitate to hire her! She's truly a great fit for all clients!

Your wedding or elopement is one full of raw moments, and it is our job to weave these together cohesively. We always approach each film with a detail-oriented eye, considering you, the film, the composition, the audio, the lighting, and everything in between, to ensure we achieve a comprehensive film with an emotional impact. It is also a priority of ours that your film resonates with your spirit. That it represents you, your story, your love, and your style authentically. That's why we get to know you and your partner well and cater to your preferred look.

My husband and I recently got married in December, 2023. I'm so grateful we hired Rick and his team to be our videographer!! I would highly recommend using them. Rick was very professional and supportive throughout the entire process. We set up a few calls while being engaged to prepare for the day. He also worked really well with our photographer to gameplan for the day. This was HUGE because they were able to work together to obtain all the shots needed and didn't step on each other's toes. Rick put together a 2 minute clip of the day, and I watch it everyday! The shots he chose and the music he tied with it was so meaningful. It was a perfect video to showcase the day. I shared it on social media. He also put together a full 45 minute video of the day that includes special events and speeches of the day, so we won't forget anything special that happened! Again, we are so grateful we worked with Rick. He captures all the special moments and now we have his work to look back on the wonderful day! Thank you!

Video Reflections

In 2005 Tim started capturing wedding stories and founded Video Reflections. In 2018 his sons Trevor and Aaron caught his passion. Trevor, the lead videographer and editor, captures the imagination of couples with his out-of-the-box creativity. Aaron, assistant videographer and graduate of Columbia College Film School, is a visionary filmmaker. His portfolio includes several short films, documentaries and viral stop motion animations. In 2019 Abby joined the family team and now assists Tim with his recent addition of wedding photography.

I was looking very hard for a videographer that met our budget and delivered a high quality product. I spent more time searching for a videographer than any other wedding vendor because I was not happy with the majority of videographers I found on the internet. Video Reflections was one of only a few I contacted because I was impressed with the quality and artistry of their work. When we met Tim and Trevor, we were very happy with their professionalism and caring. They rolled with our unconventional plans, meeting us again a week before the wedding to make sure they understood our plans so they could capture them. We ended up buying the package that included a highlight video and a documentary and we are so happy with our decision. We were very budget conscious with our wedding but we knew that we wanted to prioritize the photography and videography so that we had the priceless memories. They are very reasonably priced compared to other videographers, but I would not have spent the money for a sub-par videographer if I did not like their portfolio. They did a wonderful job and were very calm and supportive the day of our wedding-very easy to work with. I loved seeing the parts of the day I missed and remembering parts that had flown by in the rush of it all, which, sadly, was a lot. My highest recommendation.

My husband and I had the absolute best experience working with Trey and team. Trey truly took the time to learn about us as individuals, who we are together, what mattered to us most, and our vision for our wedding day. He is personable and professional and will truly feel like a friend that you are excited to see when the big day comes. Our video turned out better than we could’ve ever imagined and it is such a treasure to have such an elegantly captured representation of our day to look back on. It has also been the perfect way to share our experience with family and friends who weren’t able to make it. Watching the days events unfold through the perspective of a guest is such a cool experience and had us falling in love with the day all over again. Working with Trey was a flawless and stress free experience and took the pressure off us because he really was able to lead our team through the events seamlessly. We are so happy with the finished products down to being obsessed with the song choices he picked. He took all our feedback and ideas into consideration and just made our video spectacular. He is truly an artist in videography and we cannot recommend working with him enough!

97 Films did an amazing job capturing our wedding day. Katie helped us every step of the way leading up to the big day. On top of the wonderful service we also got a surprise thank you gift. Every time we watch our wedding film we are taken back to that special day and get to relive the best moments. What a great way to remember our wedding day and it even has the essence of a Hollywood film. We also had a same day film and our friends and family were surprised and it brought tears to their eyes.

I became indulged in the story-telling of my wedding couples. Being surrounded by the excitement, sometimes nervous couples, and their loving families and friends made the filming such a rush. Then to have the honor to edit a film where their personalities and love shine through is the greatest privilege. I want to take them on a journey back in time to the most epic day where they laugh and cry with all their family and friends. I make films that last the ages. I love to think about how my couples might show their kids or even grandkids someday.

It is so hard for me to write a review on Maloch Media, because it is so hard to put into words how exceptional they are. Trevor and his team are such a joy to be around on one of the most important days of your life. Trevor wasn't just there as a videographer but there as a friend. Throughout the whole day he was making sure that I was comfortable and had what I needed, and he was there to comfort me during the overwhelming times. He exceeded any expectations that I may have had. I truly cannot say enough great things about him and his work, it is truly exceptional. Every time that we watch our wedding video we are just overwhelmed with emotions, the video makes us feel like we are reliving the day all over again. He captured things that we don't even remember seeing on our wedding day. His work is impeccable. Maloch Media is the perfect addition to any wedding, they are worth every penny and more!

I love coffee. I never leave home without it. I’m easy going. I love to chill. I’m a huge sports fan and I love watching Skip Bayless and others argue on Fox. Basketball was my first love and even in my thirties I still daydream about playing in the NBA. As a teenager, while most of my peers were listening to 2Pac and Biggie, I preferred Marvin Gaye, Al Green and The Temptations. I’ve been told that I have an old soul. At the end of the day I love life, I love my job and my customers always come first.

I am Angela; owner, lead photographer, and wedding film director. My husband, Zac, is my favorite teammate and covers lead (gimbal) videography, or 2nd shooting (photography). We've been photographing and filming weddings together since 2010! He has a storytelling perspective, while I love details and intimacy. The tension between the two creates such a romantic vibe! When you need a larger team, we pull in our favorite colleagues - professionals in their own right - to work with us for the day. We have very close peer-vendor relationships with a solid group of amazing artists we work with regularly.

Almost Fantasy Photo Video were an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. Their communication style was kind, fun, and excellent from start to finish. The quality of their work was beautiful, high quality, and had great lighting - we got so many amazing pictures that we'll cherish forever. They were so sweet and helpful throughout the day, and were very flexible in accommodating our needs. We couldn't be happier with the memories they captured of our special day.

Our approach to wedding filmmaking is simple- deliver the most sincere, organic recollection of the day by acting as unnoticeably as possible. By eliminating the pressures of being filmed, our couples are able to enjoy each moment of their day and be truly present in the experience, providing us with an authentic and emotional collection of frames. Weddings are our passion and we enjoy being able to assist with planning, coordinating and timeline creation throughout the months leading up to your big day. We’re with you every step of the way and are dedicated to creating the best possible version of your love story.

Rhys was great to work with!! He provided so much guidance leading up to the wedding day, going over my timeline and making recommendations based on how long he's seen things take. He also provides a list of suggested do's and dont's that you wouldn't realize have an impact on the video - it was so helpful!! Before the wedding he also has a prep call to go over all the details and any notes/requests we have for the videos (vibe we're looking for, any cinematic requests, song requests, etc.) He was another great presence to have the day of! We haven't gotten the video back yet but right after our wedding we got an email that lists out all the steps they take throughout video production. We've since gotten emails every time our video has moved to the next step. The communication from Rhys since we booked has been so incredible!

I've worked as an editor and videographer for the last 6 years of my life and filming weddings has allowed me to connect storytelling to a lifelong hobby and passion of mine; videography. In the off-season, I work for creative agencies, production houses, and all kinds of others as a videographer and editor. Follow me on Instagram to see some of my other commercial and creative work that I've had the pleasure of working on.

Brad was an absolute breeze to work with. Planning a wedding in 2020 was not easy, but you wouldn't have known that working with Brad. His communication was always on point and was there to answer every question. Not everyone decides to hire a videographer, but I would 100% recommend it. The outcome of his product left my husband and I speechless, not to mention brought tears to our eyes. Everyone always says the actually wedding day flies by, and truly it does. But having all of the video footage to go back and watch is something I can't put into words. Brad and team, I can't thank you enough!! So if you are on the fence of whether to hire a videographer or not, do it. I promise you won't regret it!

Finding the right videographer was incredibly important to us because we wanted more than just photos. We wanted to capture the voices, the laughter, the tears, the movement—every emotion that made our day unforgettable. At first, we struggled to find a connection with the work we saw, but after months of searching online, we came across Alex V Films, and his work left a lasting impression on us. It was exactly what we had been searching for. From the moment we met Alex, his warm personality and passion for his craft put us completely at ease. He took the time to understand our vision, showing incredible attention to detail and truly listening to what we wanted. His talent for capturing not only the big moments but also those small, candid interactions brought everything to life in a way we could only dream of. Alex was able to beautifully weave our vows into the movement and storytelling of our film, bringing each word to life. In my vows, I shared a memory about my papa. As he approached his final days, I asked him, “Papa, what can you tell me about love?” He gently touched his chest and said, “You feel it in your heart.” Alex captured this moment with such care; as I spoke the words, “my papa touched his chest,” the video transitioned to my wife, sliding her hand gently down my chest, mirroring my papa’s gesture. It was as if he had breathed life into our vows, capturing not just the words, but the emotion and legacy behind them. Alex made the experience of working with him enjoyable. Throughout the process, his communication was top-notch, and professionalism shone through every step of the way. He was attentive of our needs and made the process easy. Alex didn’t just record our day—he captured its essence. Every look, every laugh, every precious detail we wanted to hold onto is now a part of a beautiful memory we’ll cherish for a lifetime. These are moments that photos alone could never fully capture; they’re filled with emotions that will be felt and connected to for years to come. At the beginning of this process, Alex was a stranger. As we got to know him we felt as though he became a friend. We’re forever grateful to have found Alex, who created more than just a video—he created a keepsake of our love and joy that we will cherish for a lifetime.
