When we were initially planning our wedding I didn’t think getting a videographer was necessary. However, my now husband convinced we needed one. And as much it pains me to admit he was right about anything I’m so glad we got a videographer and not just any videographer but Kristiann. I really didn’t know what to expect but I can say that without equivocation she exceeded all expectations. She was communicative and always responded to questions immediately. When our first wedding had to be canceled 3 days before our original wedding date Kristiann was so kind and accommodating. When it came to our day finally arriving she was there early, professional and so friendly. She made us all feel comfortable and was not intrusive at all. After getting back our video not only was it beautifully made but it was so wonderful to see the moments she captured and the things we missed. Not only that but so many of our guests commented on how nice and wonderful she was. Without a doubt I would rebook and recommend Kristiann in a heartbeat.

To me, it should feel like assembling a group of friends for a laid-back weekend. We are here to bring that fun and friendly energy, capturing every moment with warmth and authenticity.a

Awarded Best of Zola
If you’re reading this review, you’re likely considering Steven and Wild Light Films as part of your big day. DO IT!! We were originally drawn to his unique style of work, music-video like approach, and storytelling ability in capturing the essence of people’s wedding days. Working with Steven was incredible and we can’t say enough about how much we loved his work. We booked him back in 2019 for our 2020 wedding, but of course with COVID we had to push it back a year. He was super flexible and accommodating, and we still figured out a plan to have video footage of an intimate ceremony in 2020, as well as the original plan for 2021. He did such an amazing job incorporating the two ceremonies together into one seamless video, which he turned around even quicker than we expected! Steven is a delight to work with—truly a genuinely kind person. His video editing craftsmanship and storytelling are compelling—rewatching our video + highlights felt like taking us right back to the memories and joy of our day. Do yourself and your future self a favor and get Steven to make your wedding video that you’ll cherish for years to come.

Hi there, my name is Caleb but most people call me Cook. I spent almost 13 years in the southeast filming weddings, events, corporate gigs and commercials. I moved to California in 2012 and pursued a different career. A couple years ago I decided to get back into event videography and started Cook Captures. When shooting events I have a very hands off candid style. I love to capture people naturally having fun, enjoying the day and creating memories. Every event I film is unique and each film ends up with it’s own story and narrative that fit the couple, venue, guests and overall vibe of your wedding.

Intimate and unique films tailored to you. Every wedding is different, just like every couple. What they all share in common is our love for getting together. Our need to share and connect is as human as it gets. As life takes us in different directions, getting together can become a challenge. So when our family and friends make the time to get together, we want to make sure to remember it and capture those moments. That’s where we come in. We want to capture the big and little moments of your celebration, because these moments are worth preserving ♡

Nadia captured our wedding day with the exact energy I was looking for! She took the important details that I was interested in (candid family-oriented shots) and blended them into a 10 min TREASURE that I will never stop watching. Her smile is contagious and her communication following our wedding was impeccable. So grateful for this forever memory of our day!

Based in Southern California - filming wherever your love goes. With 5 years as a professional videographer, I discovered a passion for filming weddings and documenting moments that’ll last forever. I have a background in video production and as a colorist as well as a degree in Film Production from NYU.

KS Media Productions were true professionals and a huge asset to have for our wedding this year. We saw samples of their work and immediately wanted our wedding to be captured in that light. It was definitely a fresher feel for videography. On our wedding day, it rained for a good part. KS Media Productions (along with our photographer) worked together to come up with great shots to capture the special moments of our wedding despite the weather. The improvisation KS Media had was phenomenal. Our photographer also had the highest of praises for them when it came to working with them on the professional side and communication side. We couldn't have asked for anyone better than KS Media Productions. We can not wait to see the final product, but I can tell you that we 100% recommend KS Media Productions for any event. Thank you Kristi and KS Media Productions for making our wedding amazing and we hope nothing but the best for you as you start your next chapter in life! Thank you again!

My journey as a wedding videographer is driven by a deep ethical commitment to provide a service that is not only professional but also heartfelt and responsible. I understand that your wedding day is one of the most significant moments in your life, and my approach is rooted in capturing these memories with the utmost care and sincerity. I pride myself on transparency, ensuring that every couple knows exactly what to expect from my services. From clear communication to respecting your privacy and preferences, my goal is to create a trusting relationship with every client.

Recently, in early 2023, I had the joy of experiencing my wedding day, and I must say, it was made infinitely more memorable thanks to the exceptional work of Scarpace Videographers. Justin and his team were nothing short of phenomenal. Their attention to detail, creative eye for shots, and overall professionalism were evident throughout the day. One of the most remarkable aspects of their service was how they managed to capture the essence of our special day. The day itself flew by in a blur of joy and celebration, leaving me with fleeting memories of those precious moments. However, Scarpace Videographers skillfully captured all those little, yet significant moments, ensuring that every smile, tear, and laugh was beautifully recorded.

Ben is such a talented videographer! We are super happy with the film and had a great experience working with him. His artistic take on editing and music makes the film an emotion triggering art piece. We also really appreciate his support during the pandemic. We had to reschedule twice during the whole process, not only was he flexible, he didn't even raise the price after two years and flew all the way to Seattle for our wedding. Thank you, Ben!

My husband and I were going back and forth on whether we wanted videography at our wedding, and I am so so glad we decided to go with stamper films! Firstly, they were affordable and fit in our budget. Even better, their style is documentary-like filming which we love! Looking at our videos now, it feels like an authentic, real, romantic view was captured. Yan Li was super easy to work with & everything went seamlessly. We felt very comfortable with him & his assistant, and they were so respectful of our photographer as well. Our wedding video makes me cry just thinking about it. Then I turn it on & I really start to cry— our vows overlayed on top of the footage, the scenery & details that were captured, & especially the emotion Stamper Films got on camera. 10/10 and if I ever needed videography again I would go to Stamper Films.

HEYYY! *waves hands* We are Leandra & Clinton Cunanan, owners and lead videographers of Food & Cake Wedding Films. We are huge advocates for doing exactly what you want on your wedding day. We had the most epic wedding of all time (ask us about it!), but we didn't hire a videographer. And now this why we do what we do. It's the best feeling knowing each one of our couples will be able to relive their wedding day for the rest of their lives. We didn't have that, and now we get to give that to you!

I am so blown away by not only the quality of Clint and Leandra's work as videographers, but also what wonderful people they are! Not even halfway through our first zoom with them to talk about what packages they offer and our vision for the day I knew they were the perfect fit for us! Being with them on the wedding day felt like hanging out with old friends, they were amazing at blending in to the crowd to capture candid moments while also giving us prompts that created some of our favorite memories of the day. They worked so well with our other vendors and I don't think our day would have been complete without them. They are masters at what they do, and also the perfect people to have during a busy and, at times, stressful day (Leandra was able to bussle my dress when no one else could get the loop on the buttons AND snagged me some appetizers when I was resting my feet after the receiving line, she was a lifesaver!) My husband and I both teared up watching our trailer and highlight reel, and then happy cried getting to see our whole ceremony, private vows, speeches, and first dances. I know this is footage we’ll be so happy to look back on in the years to come, not just of my husband and I but of our whole families as well! I'm so happy we found Food Cake, you will not regret hiring this fantastic couple!
