Preston LaMar Films 

5.0

  • Cinematic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Santa Cruz, CA

My name is Preston LaMar Before starting my company in 2021, I was a theatre arts major and actor. I spent 4 years studying acting, lighting, sound, set design, and wardrobe. I had one major goal in mind. I did not want to create the typical cliche films that are out there. I wanted to create videos that were divergent while staying true to an original cinema ambiance. within every video I create there is always a different approach, I strive to be as creative as I can, and always use new themes and artistic choices.

Thank you so much! LaMar productions did an amazing job! We entrusted 100% of our wedding day videos to them, and they definitely made sure that every moment of our wedding was captured! They devoted their time and energy to capturing our big day! They are very creative, organized, detail oriented, dependable, honest, understanding, professional, and trustworthy! We love working with them, and they suggested great ideas for our wedding videos, and they communicated and worked well with our photographer. We are so happy that we picked Preston our lead videographer. We definitely recommend LaMar productions to all of our friends! We can't wait to see the final videos

My husband and I struggled when it came to picking a videographer. We wanted to go with a company that picked our "style". We came across the Uncommonwedding and loved their video style. We booked out videographers 14 months before our big day. Leading up to our Wedding they had great communication and even after the Wedding, they make it so easy to get in contact with them. Our videos turned out amazing and they captured every moment we requested! 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!!

The service was excellent, I especially want to point out the drone shots that made our wedding video so much better. The drone operator used it during the ceremony, at a park during cocktail hour, and pretty much used any opportunity to get more drone shots. Seriously, the way they used those shots was on another level! Our wedding looks like a blockbuster film!

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.

If you're here, then you are probably looking for a wedding videographer. And there's so many out there that it's tough to choose which one will be a good fit for your wedding day. But too often, videographers make the same type of wedding films that aren't that different from the other hundreds out there making the videos feel generic, unauthentic, and boring. Meaning it's hard to differentiate all the videographers you see when on the search.

HOW DO I EVEN PUT INTO WORDS HOW HAPPY I AM WITH OUR WEDDING VIDEO From the very first interaction to the last minute touch ups and final product, I am SO impressed at the level of professionalism, attention to detail, and high quality work that went into creating this MASTERPIECE!! I was very clear that we didn't want this video to feel like a "production" or a big staged event. I wanted him to capture the natural heartfelt moments of sentiment, and genuine authenticity - and he did exactly that. The final product moved me to tears - and it was 10000% percent worth investing in - because these memories I now have forever to cherish. Jaime went above and beyond to work with my budget, listen to my desires and needs, and deliver on time, with impeccable quality. If anyone is considering hiring Jaime and his team - DON'T HESITATE!

Working with Eyeconik Media was an awesome experience. One month before the wedding, I reached out to them to coordinate timelines and ensure that we were on the same page. On the day of the wedding, they were professional, prepared, and a joy to work with.

They delivered them quickly and the quality was excellent. I hope I get the chance to work with them again!

When I first started shooting lots of weddings, I would wake up the next day after a shoot and my wife would ask me how went. “It was insanely cool, and everybody there seemed like SUCH GOOD FOLK,” was a phrase I would almost always use to describe a somewhat ineffable feeling of being surrounded by GOODNESS. Goodness is often found at weddings, and it’s that goodness that we try to find with our cameras, microphones, lights, eyeballs and ears. That's how I came up with the name of my business. Meeting amazing people in beautiful places is what fuels my passion for wedding videography!

Apart from my husband, the Goodfolk Film Co. was really the best choice I made on my wedding day. Mauricio went above and beyond to capture meaningful moments, and has an eye for beauty. Our video is without a doubt my absolute favorite keepsake from the day. He was easy to work with, responded quickly and reliably, was incredibly professional, and really made an incredible video. We also took engagement photos with the Goodfolk Film Co. and they are just beautiful, genuine, and such a blessing to look back on. There are so many people who work in the wedding industry, but Mauricio and his team are truly diamonds. Please watch some of their videos, and treat yourself!

I've been a wedding planner in NYC for over 8 years and NST Pictures have been my go-to videog team since the day we connected! I even hired them for my own wedding back in 2016. They're just really great to work with, the process is always very smooth and on the wedding day you won't have those crazy lights and giant cameras in your face, you won't even know they are there, which is the true beauty of working with them. They coordinate and work alongside your photography team and you get to just live in the moment, and soak up every second of fun on your wedding day all while not being posed or interrupted to re-do something. Then when the final video edits are being made and you have that final product you can also really appreciate why you chose to hire a videographer. They capture live moments in action that you just can't get with still photography. Knowing what I know now I would ensure to hire NST Pictures for my wedding day over and over again, they're truly amazing!

Edward Lau was born in Hong Kong. Having always been fascinated by filmmaking, Edward went on to earn a bachelor's degree in Cinema from San Francisco State University. After graduation, Edward freelanced at local television stations, then went back to Hong Kong and worked in both the TV and film industries. His positions included production assistant, assistant editor, assistant location manager, and script supervisor

Edward went above and beyond for my husband and I. We contacted Edward the week of our wedding because our original videographer turned out to be a scam. My message was panicked and probably all over the place but he hopped onto our crazy ride, promised a great price and was ready to go. THEN, my husband and I learned we had COVID and had to postpone the wedding for two weeks. This didn't phase Edward. He was going to be there, the price was the same, and he was so kind and communicative. Day of the wedding he shows up and gets to work. He is incredibly kind, he worked amazingly with our other vendors, especially the photographer and and wedding planner. He really just knows how to step back and capture what is happening. He also knows exactly when to step in and get the particular shot he wants. He even stayed a little while longer without charging us. He was seriously such a delight leading up to the wedding and the day of the wedding. I just got the wedding video and I had to make sure I came here to sing his praises because the video IS AMAZING. So far I have only watched the sneak peek because my husband wants to wait to watch the video with his family, which, fine, but I want to watch it all now! Edward took one of my favorite songs and used it exactly as I dreamed in the preview. There is so much that went into that preview that I didn't even know he did and/or was there for. That's how good he is at just settling in and capturing the moment!! I really want to watch the full video so I can gush and marvel at all the other amazing ways he used the songs we sent him for our video. Plus, we get the raw footage too! That was really important to us. I cannot say enough kind things about Edward. It is impossible. He deserves the world. Thank you sooooooo much for being the exact videographer we needed. Thank you for being so calm and supportive during an especially hectic time. We were so lucky to find you. I'm considering having another wedding just to hire you again. hahahaha.

Intimate and emotionally powerful. Visually striking and over-the-top cinematic. Intentional yet natural. We want our films to evoke the genuine emotions that you experience on your wedding day. Not just how things looked on the outside, but how every single moment felt to you on the inside.

Alisa and Oleg are VERY GOOD at what they do, they are very talented! They move fast, which is a good thing because it was like they were never there lol. Plus they knew what they were doing! The only areas of opportunities would be communication/responsiveness and the turn around time for the sneak peak photos. When we needed to contact Alisa for questions, it was very difficult to get a response. We understand she is busy, but a quick response acknowledging us with a follow up would have been helpful and put our minds at ease. We had to do a lot of follow ups and it was becoming a concern. The turn around time in getting our sneak peak photos was not as discussed or advertised on the package we purchased. Sneak peak photos were supposed to be sent within a week, but we did not receive them until 3 weeks later after multiple follow ups. When we reached out, we were not getting a response, so we had to reach out to Oleg. Oleg completed our videos earlier than expected and had to reach out to Alisa for us. Other than that, our sneak peak photos and videos are just perfect!! We watch our video everyday - Oleg caught so many good memories! And our sneak peak photos are just beautiful. We can’t wait to see the rest of the photos!! Thank you again!!

My name is Gage Horne, the owner of Gage Horne Studios. I started my company in 2019 (officially) but have been doing video work starting at the age of 11. It started as gaming videos uploaded to YouTube, to shooting professional dance films in college, to starting my own Video Production Service. I found true passion in my work when I realized how important wedding videos are. I had already shot 100+ films before my wedding but realized as a consumer how valuable it is. I love what I do and finding intriguing/interesting ways to display those pieces is what keeps me creative and constantly making my films better.

I'm a fellow wedding vendor (photographer) and Gage was a BLAST to work with! He was flexible and so easy to coordinate with. He also knew exactly what he was doing and he seriously knows how to take care of his couples! You won't regret hiring him!

Hi, I’m Juan, a 26-year-old wedding videographer with 9 years of experience. Seven years ago, I filmed my first wedding, and it was a life-changing moment. I even cried behind the camera as I watched the couple tear up during the ceremony. From that day on, I knew weddings were my passion. Every shot, angle, and color is carefully captured to ensure your day is as beautiful in video as it is in person. 💍 For inquiries, please visit my website at samanwedding or contact me on Instagram at juandaweddings_ Looking forward to creating unforgettable memories with you!

His genuine love for his craft was evident in every shot he took and every moment he captured on film. Throughout the entire process, Juan was attentive to our needs, responsive to our requests, and always went above and beyond to ensure that our wedding memories were captured beautifully. His creative vision and attention to detail resulted in stunning photographs and an enchanting wedding video that we will cherish for a lifetime. While Juan may be new to the wedding industry, I have no doubt that he is destined to shine bright. His talent, passion, and dedication are undeniable, and I am grateful to have had the opportunity to work with him. I have no doubt that he will become a sought-after name in the wedding industry, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to any couple looking for a photographer or videographer who truly cares about their craft.

Nice to meet you! Christian here, I have lived all my life in the DMV. (For those who don’t know what that is: DC, Maryland & Virginia metropolitan area) I also enjoy traveling abroad whenever I get the chance, always with a camera in hand :) I spend a lot of time with family and at church. I try setting a good example for the youth at my church and helping wherever I can. I have a beautiful wife who I enjoy traveling and eating with :) a beautiful daughter that we cherish with everything we have. Lastly, a Toy Poodle. Roxie is the friendliest little creature to roam the earth.

After realizing about 4 months out from the wedding that we really wanted a cinematographer, we found Christian and are so thankful that we did! He captured our absolute favorite moments and our film was uniquely us! We are so thankful we could easily add on a third angle for the ceremony, as our live stream through the venue didn't end up recording, so Christian really saved the day! He was incredibly communicative about pricing, timeline, and kept us updated after the wedding so we knew when we could expect our film. His artistry and attention to detail are unparalleled! There's nobody else you should trust with your special day!
