KS Media Productions

  • Serves Santa Barbara, CA

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!

We used Evian’s for their photography (Will) and videography (Ali) services, and they did a fantastic job! Our day went by so quick, If we didn’t have photos, I wouldn’t have thought it really happened! Will and Ali both did such a great job capturing every special moment.

Hi! Courtney here (that's me on the left!). Shutter and Sound is the brainchild of renowned wedding videographer Ryan Geldermann. Ryan began his wedding videography career in 2010 in Los Angeles and quickly became recognized as one of the top videographers in the U.S.. After relocating to DC and still receiving countless inquiries from all corners of the country, Ryan decided to recruit and train a few talented friends so he could continue offering the quality wedding videography he’s known for in SoCal and eventually over 10 cities. Shutter and Sound is a very small group of filmmakers dedicated to turning your big day into a work of art.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are thrilled with the stunning work of Shutter and Sound! Their highly talented videographers perfectly captured all the love and memories of our wedding day, and helped preserve them in film. Reliving the day by watching our highlight video brought us and our family to tears of joy. Every beautiful moment was captured with crystal-clear visuals from getting ready with our wedding attendants to our sparkler send off at the end of the night. The drone footage and details shots also perfectly blended with the rest of the film and helped set the stage for our perfect day. We can’t thank Shutter and Sound enough for the creativity and care they put into making our wedding video. I highly recommend!

We're a Wedding Photo & Video Studio based in Los Angeles, California. Our goal is to have your wedding photos and video serve as a testimony for the generations to come that true love exists and that the happiest moments are those that are shared in the presence of your loved ones.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I knew it would be an important task hiring a photo/videographer for our wedding. There’s SO many options and styles out there that it’s also daunting to commit to one. We found Cruzio Studios on The Knot and we are incredibly grateful we did. We were drawn to their journalistic style of capturing love between partners: intimate, natural (doesn’t look too posed), synergizes with the location, delicate, and sweet. After having phone calls with other vendors, we were most excited to work with Cruzio. Not only do they have an amazing portfolio (easily accessible on their beautiful website), but they have great packages to offer their clients. Our package came with an engagement shoot and the results were mind-blowing. I know that sounds hyperbolic, but my partner & I don’t show a lot of PDA and the Cruzio team captured our love so sweetly. When we got the photos and video short, we kept on saying, “That’s us!!” Given their portfolio, we trusted their expertise and artistic eye. Not only were they kind while providing clear directions and great ideas, but they’ll do their best to get the optimal shot. They’re immensely generous with their talents considering all the thought and detail they put into their product. Also, they’re really easy to talk to. We felt like we were just hanging out with friends who are very talented photo/videographers! Cruzio Studios definitely did not disappoint on our wedding day. I’m definitely a planner, so I had a list of group photos we wanted for our wedding day. The Cruzio team had that list with them and ensured we got the shots. They are so professional and stuck to our wedding day timeline with such grace. And although our venue spaces weren’t the biggest, they adapted. To that, my husband & I never felt like they were ever in the way or super noticeable. And, of course, their final products are amazing. They captured the excitement leading up our first look & ceremony and joyous celebration during the reception. Also, the romantics are simply so pretty and caught our love perfectly. It’s so lovely to look back at our special day through their talents and lenses. We consider ourselves fortunate to have had them in our wedding dream team. If you’d like a wedding photo/videographer who are fun & easy to work with, incredibly talented, and experts in their crafts, look no further. Thank you, Cruzio Studios, for everything!!

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

Sagebrush Films specializes in candid, natural wedding films. Weddings are awesome. Most wedding videos are corny. Sagebrush Films was created to fix that. We capture your day as it happens naturally, without the gimmicks and cheeseball editing. It should go without saying, but we film weddings for couples of any religion, orientation, color or creed.

Listen, I'm the first to admit I didn't think we needed a wedding video. We were on a budget and I was trying to keep things minimal. My friend hired Joel and told me about her experience and convinced me a videographer was essential, but only if I worked with Joel, and let me tell you what, I am SO thrilled we hired him. Joel was thoughtful and listened to my concerns prior to the wedding and made me feel at ease, the day of he was EARLY (who's early anymore?), he captured every special moment and worked really well with my photographer (who he'd never worked with before!) - by the end of the night you would have thought they were old friends in this wedding business that provided us with the most beautiful creations post-wedding. When Joel sent the link for us to work, my husband and I watched it 10 times in the first hour, we are SO thankful to have hired him and highly recommend him to anyone else looking (or not looking) for that extra special touch capturing your most special day.

Hello, hello - I’m Bryan Khaw. I’m a wedding videographer based out of Phoenix, Arizona and I’ve had the privilege of filming weddings for the past five years. My commissions are bespoke. The very foundation of each film are the unique characters of the people I get to know and work with.

We recently had our intimate wedding at San Francisco City Hall and realized at the last minute that we absolutely needed a videographer to capture the day. That’s when we found Bryan, and he was a lifesaver! Bryan responded to our inquiry right away and was so helpful in explaining all the services he offered. His rates were super reasonable, which was a huge relief. On our wedding day, Bryan was not only on time and professional, but he also felt like part of the family. He managed to capture every beautiful moment without ever being intrusive. His creativity and attention to detail really shone through in every shot, and the final video is something we’ll cherish forever. By the end of the day, we felt like we had known Bryan forever. We are truly blessed to not only call him our videographer but also a friend. Bryan went above and beyond our expectations, and we couldn’t be happier. If you’re looking for a videographer who is responsive, talented, and genuinely invested in making your day special, Bryan is your guy. Thank you, Bryan, for making our wedding day even more unforgettable!

I'm Lauren, a Wedding Videographer and Photographer Duo! Whether you are still on the fence about adding a videographer to your wedding, or you want one but still haven't found what you're looking for, I'm here to help! I have affordable packages as well. Another perk of mine is I travel anywhere in the world! Let's talk about booking today! I would love to be apart of your special day. I am looking forward to speaking with you.

Lauren was amazing to work with! Leading up to the big day she was reachable and so informative. She was able to work out a package that worked for our needs. The pictures and videos were beautiful and we got a sneak peak a couple days after and then it did not take long for the rest of them. I have watched the video so many times and am constantly reliving that night with the album. Highly would recommend!!

My husband and I hired Juan when he was just starting out as a videographer in 2019. He not only came to the rehearsal to scout out the venue, but he ensured that I had so much fun while he was shooting me and my girls, and the product that he gave us was ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!! I still go back and watch it, and I love the video just as much as I did the first time I saw it. Moral of the story: hire Juan. You'll be so glad that you did!

My name is Jessica Odnoralov, I’m looking forward to working with you! Wedding videography has been my consistent flow of video work since 2016, and I’ve enjoyed having the opportunity to improve my skills with each new project. I am naturally creative, and always enjoyed photographing and recording fun moments in my life. I also love to travel and see new places, and love collecting memorabilia of my adventures. Plane tickets, stickers, bottles of sand from my favorite beaches, and passport stamps. Nature and exploration is food for my soul.

Do yourself a favor and hire her! We got married during the pandemic and she was extremely flexible and understanding of the situation. Her attention to details are exceptional which is so important to me. The video that she put together of our ceremony and reception is phenomenal. It literally brought tears to my eyes. I will say that I have high standards when it comes to these things and she fully met them. This video will be treasured forever. Thank you Jessica!!

Our wedding business started out with me shooting a wedding video for a very dear friend of mine in 2017. I posted the video to a Facebook business page and BOOM! It received 200,000 views and we started receiving hundreds of inquiries from couples around the PNW. Every year I would book 30-40 weddings doing photo and video for couples. When COVID struck, we had a year crashing into the next year. We had to adapt. So I grew our company to 8 teams of pro photographers/videographers to cover weddings around the US. There is nothing better than capturing love on the biggest day ever. Every day we are thankful to be able to do this.

Joshua Jacob Creative was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding videography. Josh was extremely responsive in his communication, always getting back to us promptly with clear and precise answers to our questions. On the big day, Josh and his assistant were consummate professionals - impeccable work and attention to detail. They made us and our families feel at ease while skillfully capturing all the special moments we hoped to remember forever. From my husband feeling comfortable in front of the camera despite not loving the spotlight to shy relatives coming out of their shells thanks to Josh's friendly demeanor, the video perfectly encapsulates the joy and love of our special day. We couldn't have asked for a better team to seamlessly document our wedding memories to cherish for years to come. Thanks, Josh!

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.

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.
