Hi, I'm Jesse, an award-winning, international wedding filmmaker. I love to tell stories in a strong and original way. My work today is all about STORYTELLING and the PEOPLE that help move your story along. I have been part of so many incredibly personal moments, memories, laughs, tears, and emotions over the past decade. I understand the magnitude of what it is I do. My passion is telling your unique story and I'd love to be the first and maybe only professional you hire to document your life!

I am truly so thankful for Jesse and his team. His talent in catching and documenting special moments on your wedding day is beyond what you can anticipate. The art of taking those special moments and forming a video with music and voice recordings from the ceremony and speeches is not something just anyone can do. I have to say, our wedding videos are BEYOND. The more we watch them, the more thankful we are to have hired Jesse and his team. Besides the fact that Jesse was so wonderful to work with from our first phone call to the day of our wedding, he is so kind and has amazing attention to detail. He caught everything on our video "wishlist" and gave us some of the best tips before the wedding. He asked for our vows, speeches, and ceremony script ahead of time and then incorporated video shots with special words as they are played. All around, incredible! I'd hire him again in a heartbeat and recommend him to no end!

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

We hired Desmond 3 months before the big day because we kept going back and forth about wanting a videographer. And, now, looking back, we are SO HAPPY that we did! Videos capture full moments that pictures can’t quite get. The day is a whirlwind of big moments that can blur so having something to watch and relive those moments is the best. He captured everything on our shot list and more! The quality is amazing and so professional, and I think the pricing is very fair considering how beautiful the final product is!

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!!

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.

My commissions are bespoke art house shorts - almost reminiscent of a home video. At the forefront of it all, it is directed by the charm and character that makes my couple’s wedding day dynamic and unique. My workflow is minimal. I prefer not to influence a wedding day by manufacturing moments and over-directing people. It is a discreet and fiercely grounded approach which leads to what I believe is a creatively genuine interpretation of the day and a testament to my couple. All of my commissions will include: a 1-2 minute film trailer a 7-10 minute feature film and uncut versions of the ceremony and toasts.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

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!!

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.

i grew up in europe and from the age of 10 used analogue film cameras. i eventually became a fashion/people photographer in milan, austria, new york city and LA. the nostalgia of polaroids inspired me to make weddings films in a more abstract and ephemeral way, like dreams. my films aim to provide a glimpse of what it felt like on your day, conveying an unmistakable essence about you and the experience.

Working with Michael from start to finish was absolutely lovely! He is a true artist. He genuinely got to know us and our story beforehand, and by the time we finally met - he felt like an old friend. From the moment they arrived, he and his assistant were ninjas, getting everything from drone shots (!?) to go-pro footage of the groomsmen in the pool. He never hesitated to throw out amazing ideas and things we could capture. Once we finally had the video - we were ecstatic. It blew our minds! It basically should go to Sundance. But really... wow, we wept looking at the most joyous day of our life be reflected to us in such a cinematic and intimate way. This was not your regular wedding video. It was spectacular! We had a chance to show some of our closest friends right away, and of course, everyone was in love with it, and the consensus was, "This is LITERALLY A FILM!" "This filmmaker is incredible," lots of tears, laughs, smiles etc etc :) We absolutely agree. I can't express enough how awesome Michael is; we LOVE his work! Thank you, thank you, thank you. We are so grateful to have had him as part of our day! To sum it up, he is an absolute pleasure to work with; he has an incredible eye and is professional, collaborative, and kind.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jaime and his team (Rachel) were truly the highlight of our wedding day. From our first phone call, Jaime exuded confidence and professionalism to ensure our visions aligned and that I would have something truly special to remember my wedding day. He made quick check-ins throughout the wedding planning process and the week before the wedding we had a longer call to ensure again that we were on the same page and to check if there was anything new he needed to know. On the day of, Jaime was our hypeman, ensuring that every perfect moment was captured along with scenes of the day we will cherish forever! He made sure we were having a great time and I'm so thrilled with how everything turned out. Working with One In A Million Films was honestly the best decision. I would get married all over again to work with Jaime and his team!

We owe Eyeconik an apology for such a late recommendation! We cannot say enough awesome things about Kanoa and Sara. The vision and creativity in their work is so refreshing. For our engagement shoot, Kanoa and Sara literally drove us around SF ( I'm talking like 4 different locations!) and produced shots that we are thankful to have for the rest of our lives. These people can take ordinary, boring backdrops and flip it into something special. That is what you will get with Eyeconik. Their creativity and imagination is something we appreciated so much! Its been a full year since our wedding. We still remain in awe with the images that Eyeconik gave us. We are so thankful to have met Kanoa and Sara, and we are forever grateful for the wonderful memories they have captured for us! Eyeconik should be shooting your photos!
