Film holds power. It captures mountain breezes through veils, secret shared smiles and zany dance moves. Most importantly, it brings it all back to life. Over the past 10 years here at Zweifel Studios we have been compelled by the power of Story. We've made films about people, businesses, surfing, lifestyle - everything. But bearing witness to weddings - major milestones in the lives of others - are uniquely vulnerable and joyful occasions. These films inherently hold deep meaning and are often looked at for the rest of peoples lives - giving us a sense of responsibility to do our best each and every time.

Ryland and Sarah (Zweifel Studios) were amazing to have with us on our big day. They were fun, made us feel at ease, and were always in the right place but never in the way. Our film captured us perfectly down to the last detail. Can't recommend enough!

I am an avid reader. It was important to me for my wedding day (the experience, the photos, and the video) to feel like it was a fantasy novel brought to life. And that is exactly what this video portrays. I could not be happier. My wedding video was beautiful and I feel like they really captured the feelings and emotion of the day. My video was very different from others in the best way possible. The cinematography was incredible. Everyone who has viewed our wedding video tells me it looks like a movie. This video is something I will cherish for the rest of my days. I cannot stop watching it. The magical feeling that is displayed throughout our film is everything I dreamed for. If you are specific in what you want your film to look like, Fine Arts Weddings will nail it for you. They fit so much in to such timely films. I married my high school sweetheart of 11 years. The love we have was shown beautifully in such a romantic and fantastical way. You will not regret booking with them!!

We hired Brendan Reiss to film our wedding. Brendan was easy to communicate with and was able to answer all of our questions. The way Brendan filmed our wedding was truly magical. One unique thing Brendan did was filming aerial views of our wedding venue with his drone. He used top of the line equipment to film our wedding and didn’t miss any important shots. The highlight video and long video Brendan provided us was breathtaking. The videos were high quality, and the music chosen truly matched our wedding. We want to say thank you Brendan for your thoughtfulness, and flexibility working with us. The videos you made for us will be something that we cherish forever.

I can't express how grateful we are for our incredible wedding videographer, Steven! He was not only incredibly talented but also the sweetest person to work with. His professionalism and attention to detail were evident in every shot he took.  He beautifully captured all the special moments of our day, and finding someone who could provide high-quality video, drone footage, and 8mm film was a dream come true. When I finally stumbled upon this gem from Virginia, I knew I had found my guy! And I felt compelled to write this review even before receiving our final video because of how much we enjoyed working with Steven and his colleague! I was so comfortable with them and felt like their friend by the end of it all. If the teaser video is any indication (which we received the following day OMG!), the final video will far exceed all our expectations! We will cherish these memories forever, thanks to their amazing work! EASILY, HAPPILY, AND HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! 12/10! 5 STARS ALL AROUND! If you would like a videographer who has a great product, is easy to work with, is a good human, and makes your wedding day better by being awesome, do yourself a favor and hire Steven! You will not regret it…we sure as heck don’t! Steven, thank you so much! What a positive experience you gave us! You’re the best and we are so grateful! We’re so excited for our final edit! -Laura

Growing up in New Zealand, England and the US means I've had my fair share of adventures. I’ve spent 15 years telling stories through video, poetry, and photography — and the weddings I capture are rooted in that same deep attention to detail and care. With my sister as second shooter, a couple drones (Bug & Sheldon), and a documentarian’s eye behind the lens, I make art from the real. Having seen 30+ countries and indulged in every experience you can think of - I bring a global perspective and a personal touch to every film. This isn’t just a highlight reel. It’s your story — the way it really felt.

Alex was amazing for our San Francisco wedding! He captured everything from our hotel prep to the last dance at the reception. He handled all three locations like a pro - especially the gorgeous outdoor space and ballroom at the Conservatory at One Sansome. He got along great with our big wedding party (no small feat!) and stayed cool and friendly all day. Communication was on point before, during, and after the wedding, and he rolled with any changes without missing a beat. His technical abilities truly impressed us. The steady-cam footage was smooth and professional, while the drone shots added a stunning cinematic quality. We're obsessed with both our full wedding video and the shorter cut he made for social media. When I asked for a few tweaks, Alex jumped right on them with zero drama. What makes Alex special is how much he genuinely cares about getting your vision just right. If you want someone who's talented, easy to work with, and passionate about making your wedding video perfect - Alex is your guy! Highly recommend!

I want to start off by saying to those who are unsure about spending the money on a videographer: you’ll never regret having those videos, but you will forever regret NOT having them. Wow — where do I even begin? Working with Armando, Amanda, and The Fourth Film Team has been absolutely phenomenal! They are so kind, patient, and above all, incredibly talented! I spoke with several videographers before hiring The Fourth Film. I was so impressed with the care and time Armando spent speaking with me during our consultation call. I love how he had creative ideas for setting the scene for the video that reflected my own unique relationship with my partner. It felt like a creative collaboration. On the day of the wedding the team was helpful, positive, unobtrusive, and diligent. My partner and I wanted more of a candid Film style. The Fourth Film team absolutely has delivered and totally understood our vision. They fully respected that we did not want to be taken away from the celebration for staged moments. Above all, I’m absolutely amazed at everything I’ve seen so far, and the turnaround time has been so impressive! The Fourth Film’s video editing quality and story telling ability is above and beyond what I hoped for, and their price point is far below what the quality of their work deserves!

  • Serves Watsonville, CA

Kindly Weddings is a team of professional filmmakers led by Austin Stoecklein. We have filmed weddings + commercial projects in just about every part of the world, for companies like Apple and Visa. Since 2010 we have been pushing the boundaries of what a wedding film can be, and our work has been seen by millions. Our goal is to make unique films, not generic wedding films.

We were on the fence about getting a wedding video at all. Most of the videos out there are cheesy and just not our style. Why spend the money? Then, we found Kindly. And wow, I'm so happy about it. During our first call with Austin, it was clear that he "gets it." He has incredible taste, and is excited about cool, interesting weddings with a lot of heart. As I described the vision for our wedding — an ode to old school Los Angeles taking place at the iconic Sunset Tower & Chateau Marmont hotels — we could see Austin's creative wheels turning. We decided to use a Super 8 camera to incorporate in the film, which added that grainy, vintage, home-video aesthetic to the final product. Austin also had the idea for us to send videos we recorded ourselves of our relationship and the time leading up to the wedding to incorporate in the film — making it not only a wedding video, but a story of our love. Here's one final anecdote to capture what made working with Kindly so spectacular. My husband and I both share the same favorite moment of the wedding: it was the end of the night, we were on the dance floor surrounded by all of our favorite people in the world, and Robyn's song, "Dancing On My Own" was playing. We were jumping up and down and spinning, and everywhere we looked, there was someone we loved. Forever that song will remind us of that moment. Well, when Austin sent us the final film, he had selected Robyn's "Dancing On My Own" to punctuate the final minutes. It took our breath away. We didn't ask for this song, or tell him this was our favorite moment. But he was there, not only observing behind the camera, but also experiencing the wedding with us, and he just *knew*. He knew the magic of that moment, and knew to capture it in the film. This is what you want in a wedding cinematographer. Someone who gets it: who gets the magic, who gets the moments that matter, who gets the story, who gets the aesthetic, and who turns it into the film you that almost 2 years later, you still watch every Saturday morning. Yep, we — two people who weren't sure we wanted to invest in a wedding video at all — still watch ours every Saturday morning because it's that special. Absolutely could not recommend Kindly more highly. Here's our video if you want to check it out: https://vimeo.com/374696258

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!

Hi! My name is Nico and I love creating stories through the film medium. I’ve been making films since high school and received a film degree from UC Santa Cruz. I'd love to be the one to create a wedding film that you can look back on, to remember and cherish for the future years to come. I’ll do my best in capturing all the precious moments of the big day and all that it symbolizes. So with all that said, I can't wait to meet you and craft a wonderful story for you both!

From start to finish Nico was INCREDIBLE to work with!! Not only was he easy to talk with during the planning process he genuinely has a passion for the art of videography. On our wedding day he moved effortlessly with our photographers, capturing every important detail. I honestly had no idea that Nico and Eddie were filming the entire day, it just felt as if they were part of our wedding. When we received the highlight film we were completely blown away. From the editing to the music selection Nico exceeded our expectations! We were so impressed by our highlight film that we also ordered the documentary film. Nico has given us the best gift of reliving our wedding day every time we watch. This was one of the most important vendor selections for us and I am so happy that we found Dream Together Films. Thank you Nico!!
