Flower and oak were absolutely amazing. They showed up extremely early for our event and we had the highest premium package ordered for the day. We had a couple specific shoot ideas for THE GROOMSMEN and the minute I walked in the front door. I was greeted by both videographers With all kinds of cool camera gear and they told us exactly what to do and there was no time wasted. I highly recommend flower and oak to anyone looking at getting married soon. The one thing I don’t regret about our wedding day is using them because they were so great. It doesn’t matter what the price is you will have those memories forever.

We are beyond happy with Proper Films and I would recommend them to anyone and everyone looking for a wedding videographer. They are very communicative and from our first consultation on, I completely trusted them and their skills. They did such an amazing job capturing our wedding day and their videos are not just a combination of wedding clips but they create a story and the video takes you on a journey throughout the full day. They do such a great job of reading the vibes of your special day and portraying that beautifully through video. We couldn’t be happier.

JCB Creative

  • Cinematic style
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Ames, IA for additional fees

Here at JCB Creative, we're a creative services provider based in Lincoln, NE, specializing in photography, videography, and live event production services (livestreaming, IMAG, and audio-visual technology services). JCB Creative started long before it had a name, when it was just Josh and his camera. Eventually came a name, a logo, a website — and everyone needs a good sidekick :)

We have seen the work that Atira and Josh have done from our friends who used them as a photographer videographer at their weddings big life milestones, and it was a no brainer that we wanted them to capture our wedding day. From the first zoom call we had with them, we knew that everything we wanted captured, they were going to make those wants a reality. And to say they delivered is an absolute understatement, they gave us so much more. They were an absolute godsend. From the moment they arrived, they brought the perfect mix of patience, creativity, and an all-around great time to be around — basically the dream team we didn’t know we needed. Many newlyweds have told us, "Your wedding day goes by in a blink of an eye." and it is 100% true. But JBC somehow managed to catch every tiny detail, every happy tear, every laugh-out-loud moment — even the ones we didn’t see ourselves, but are so glad we get to have them forever. The photos are stunning (like, how are we this photogenic they captured my husband genuinely smiling, which is a rare site to capture) and the videos? Let’s just say we’ve already watched it more times than we’ll admit. It feels like a real-life movie. They made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, kept things running smoothly, and honestly felt more like friends than vendors by the end of the day. Our family and guests loved them too! If you’re thinking about booking them — DO IT. Your future self will thank you every time you look back at your wedding photos or hit play on your highlight reels videos they capture. Atira & Josh, thank you again for capturing our chaos, joy, and love so perfectly. You made the magic last forever!

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Martin and Kero for our engagement session was hands down one of the highlights of our year. Like many couples, we were a little nervous about being in front of the camera and worried about looking stiff or awkward. However, the second we met them, all that anxiety completely disappeared. It felt like we were hanging out with two friends who happened to have cameras. They kept us laughing, gave us just the right amount of direction, and made the whole afternoon feel like a fun date rather than a formal shoot. Because they made us feel so comfortable, the photos and video captured who we actually are as a couple. We’re so grateful for the memories and the amazing experience they gave us! Huge shoutout to Martin and Kero! They made our engagement shoot incredibly fun and stress-free. We felt totally comfortable the whole time, and the footage/photos were stunning. We highly recommend this amazing team!
