Fueled by nostalgic recalling we aim to create a film that is timeless and authentic. Motel Cinema is based out of San Diego, Ca and our approach to weddings is inspired by the untraditional travelers before us, who hit the road in search of adventure into the unknown.

Cook Captures 

5.0

  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves San Luis Rey, CA

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Cook and Peter were so great to work with. I appreciated their understanding of how difficult the cost of weddings have gone up and how they were willing to cooperate reasonably throughout the whole process. Cook was able to capture all the shots I was hoping to have captured and his talent is truly evident. My husband and I were hoping to get some footage within the whole gallery of the not so “picture-perfect” to keep memories authentic and to see the natural candid side of our special day. Cook delivered that exactly through his videos. I truly recommend working with Cook if you are looking for someone to capture a meaningful event in your life. He is also so versatile in styles that he truly can provide you exactly what you are looking for or thinking through collaboration.

When inviting me in to tell a part of your story, you are letting me into your relationship.

From the last light on the horizon to the messy and playful love, your film will hold memories, not just videos.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were really struggling to find a videographer that understood what we wanted and was within our budget. Dianna was warm and friendly from the start! She was very patient as we talked through everything we wanted in our video. On the day of our wedding, she was very thorough and captured some shots that we didn't even know happened! We were worried that our photographer and videographer would get in the way of guests' views but Dianna was very respectful and was able to capture beautiful footage without disrupting our guests. We cannot recommend Dianna enough!

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 an absolute delight to work with for our wedding videography. From the start, their communication was always punctual, professional, and courteous. Kristi and Karina were amazing to collaborate with - they meshed so well with our photographer and made the entire experience 10 times better. My husband is usually quite shy, but they made him feel completely comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera. The final product they delivered was truly top-notch and so heart-warming. Kristi was also incredibly responsive throughout the process and captured our wedding day perfectly. We could not be happier with the magical highlight video they created for us. Highly recommend KS Media Productions to any couple looking for exceptional videography for their special day!

My name is Ben. I am a LA-based Wedding Filmmaker who runs on emotion-driven films that tell the story of you as a couple. The wedding day for sure! - But lets be honest, the wedding day is only whatit is because of who you are together before and after the day is done. Let's get some of that. That's the stuff that lasts longer than a few years after your wedding. The stuff your kids will pull out and watch.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

Awarded Best of Zola
We are not joking when we say that we hired Saja from Mawaddah productions at 8:30 am on our wedding day after realizing that we almost made one of the biggest mistakes by not having a videographer. And this was definitely the BEST decision we made. We were amazed that Saja not only managed to travel two hours from Boston to Alstead New Hampshire with a last minute notice for the job, but also exceeded our expectations by capturing all these priceless and unforgettable moments with little to no preparation other than a timeline flyer a few hours beforehand. The cinematography is insane: she films so beautifully and candidly, and her attention to details is unparalleled. Through her art and vision, she was able to translate this day which needless to say, went by overwhelmingly fast, into such a beautiful beautiful endless everlasting memory that we can now forever replay. We ABSOLUTELY ADOREDDDD the teaser, the short wedding film and the feature film. We shared it with our entire families and friends and they are completely in love. The short wedding film is on constant repeat. We could not thank her and recommend her enough for her incredible work and talent.

I aim to provide a unique, meaningful experience filled with adventure, laughter, and a whole lot of love. My main goal is to ensure that not only do you receive a kick-ass gallery or video that brings back all the feelings from your day, but that you have an INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE throughout the entire journey! Your wedding day should be fun, STRESS-FREE and memorable. Simple as that. And I will do everything I can throughout the entire process to make sure it is nothing less.

I worked with Alanna this summer for an elopement in the Olympic National Forest. She was so on top of communicating with our couple, helping them find locations, reaching out to people about permits, and really set the whole day up for success. I don’t shoot a lot of elopements in that area, so I felt so inspired & at ease seeing the way she stepped up to help our couple plan their day. Her expertise was the reason the day went so smoothly. Day of, she was gentle and calm with poses & capturing natural moments as they happened. She even hung back to get detail shots of the scenery to really capture the whole story for her final video. Working with her was such a dream. It was my first time meeting her in person and it just felt easy. She’s the best & I am so lucky I got to work with her. :)
