We had an amazing experience working with Lastlook Films. From start to finish, Andi made the entire process smooth and stress-free. She asked questions to ensure that every special moment we wanted captured was perfectly recorded. Communication was effortless, and she made sure we were consistently updated throughout the process. On our wedding day, she was professional yet personable, seamlessly blending into the background while still managing to capture all the emotions and details. The finished product was nothing short of amazing—it was exactly what we asked for and more! The video perfectly captured the essence of our day, and we couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. We are so happy we get to have this as a beautiful keepsake to relive our most cherished moments for years to come. We highly recommend Lastlook Films to any couple looking for a videographer who delivers both quality and a great experience.

I'm William, a dedicated and passionate photographer/videographer based in Washington, DC. My love of photography was born out of my love of travel. While exploring other countries and cultures, I was using my phone to document the people that I met and the places that I have been. This led me to buy my first professional-level camera; it has been with me ever since. I consider my photography style to be timeless. When I'm not behind the lens, you'll find me at my local movie theater or spending quality time with my family and friends.

My husband and I wanted to find a videographer who would make a film that felt personal to us and would truly reflect our day. We were thrilled when we found Chad who took the time to get to know us and understand just what we were hoping to achieve.

Granger Creative is a full-service production company specializing in weddings/couples and branding. I’ve been working in the film + media industry for 5+ years and have loved every minute of it! I believe that there’s as much meaning and beauty in the subtle and intimate as there is in the grand and exciting. The films I create tend to be nostalgic and cinematic mixed with a documentary approach. My hope is that we can be a team, bringing your memories and emotions to life. Let’s create something together!

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Michelle at Granger Creative felt natural and like it was "meant to be." We chatted before the wedding day to make sure we both felt confident with the day-of timeline, and on the wedding day our couple commented that we must have known each other from before! Perhaps we got along so well because we're both mid-westerners? Or maybe it's just because creatives that love what they do are always an easy match. Either way, I loved working with this gal, and you will too!

Hello! My name is Jeff Bien Aime I am the Founder and Lead Videographer of Flare Hill Productions. I fell in love with Wedding Filmmaking back in 2018 when I Filmed my 1st, Wedding. I remember feeling so excited but yet so nervous. After it was all I over and I delivered the Wedding Film to my client. They ended up loving it and recommending me to my next couple. Since then, I've dedicated myself and this company to creating and capturing timeless moments of our couple's special day. I realized that there's something magical about capturing the love and emotions of two people in a way that can be relived over and over again. ​

Awarded Best of Zola
I'm a photographer and I don't bundle video, so I make referrals. Flare Hill Productions is at the top of my preferred vendors list. I've worked side by side with Jeff on many occasions and know the quality of Jeff's work from another creative's perspective. I'm also fairly familiar with his packages. Jeff makes a full length video of the ceremony and speeches using multiple camera angles as well as a highlight video. He calls this "RAW footage". (Keep that term in mind). So if you are interested in full length videos for ceremony and speeches I think he is worth a serious look. Many other videographer packages say "RAW footage", but this is often meant as all the unedited short (a few seconds or minute long) video clips that the videographer used to create a highlight video. Not Jeff! Ask to see one of his full ceremony and/or toast and speeches videos. They are very cinematic. He also does bloopers reels and best wishes which I can't tell you how many couples have really enjoyed these outtakes and personal messages to the couple. (Just take a moment to watch a few of his viral videos on social media! Jeff is also amazing at live streaming if you have friends and relatives that would like to watch the wedding live. I don't know any other videographer that creates as much value for his clients! If you're having a larger wedding of 150 or more guests, I would recommend getting two videographers with Jeff, although he works well alone too. To top it off, Jeff is a really cool human being! Jeff will not disappoint! There are not enough stars to properly rate him!!

We found Robert and Mandi thanks to a Facebook recommendation, and we seriously lucked out!

When it came to the day of the wedding, they worked hard and captured all the important moments beautifully. They had so many fun ideas, and the quality of their work is just wonderful. They are so fun and easy to work with! We had only met in person the day of the wedding, and it was like they were friends.

Every couple is different and we strive to create something with you that truly reflects that. From first meet to final delivery, you can expect a genuine experience that hopefully feels like working with a friend more than a vendor. We offer both Super 8 film and camcorder-style footage in addition to our standard 4K delivery. <3

Working with Cat as our videographer was an absolute joy! From the moment we met her, it was clear that she was not only incredibly talented but also a wonderful person to have by our side on our wedding day. Her easygoing nature made it so comfortable to be around her, and she truly felt like part of our celebration. Cat always had a smile on her face, which radiated positivity throughout the day. She captured every moment with such deliberate ease, making it all feel effortless. From the glimpses we've seen so far, it’s clear she perfectly encapsulated the overwhelming love, joy, and happiness of our wedding. You can genuinely feel the emotion in her film, bringing those precious moments back to life for us. We are especially grateful for Cat's suggestion to add on Super 8 film before the wedding; we had so much fun with it throughout the day and know that it will add such a beautiful and personal touch to our final video. We can’t wait to see the full film to relive our day again, knowing it will be a cherished keepsake that we will treasure for years to come. Thank you, Cat, for your incredible work and for capturing our day so beautifully!
