The Best Documentary Wedding Videographers in Amherst, NY

“Tyler flew out to shoot our wedding in SLC. I could sit here and tell you all the normal stuff, like how friendly he is, or how proactive he is, or how he makes everyone (even somehow miraculously my wife's grandma) feel comfortable on camera, or how his style is cinematic but still keeps the bright, happy, fun vibe of the day, or how my wife still raves out our wedding video as one of her favorite keepsakes from the wedding. I could tell you all of those things, and they are true, but that should all be obvious from his portfolio and his other reviews. Instead, I'll tell you a quick story that shows you who he actually is. On the way to our reception we ended up getting a flat tire (someone other than Tyler was driving, for the record). I was in my suit and my wife was in her dress and so neither of us were exactly thrilled about the idea of crawling around in the gutter on our wedding day. Without a second thought, Tyler jumped out and volunteered to change the tire for us. No one asked him to. That's not in his job description. He just did it, and wore a smile the entire time. That's just the kind of guy he is! We ended up making the reception on time thanks to him. I tend to be a pretty harsh critic and basically never rate anything full points, but Tyler is the rare exception who genuinely earns a 10/10. You won't regret booking him!”

“Chad & his team are one of a kind, truly talented, and the coolest people ever. We had the best time getting to work with them and feel so lucky that we had the honor of Chad making our wedding video! Mist Moss somehow captured the very essence of our relationship and turned it into a work of art. We watch it every day because it brings us so much joy!! Lauren & Warren were absolutely fantastic and made our day so special. I am a bit camera shy, so I was a bit anxious about photos/video on the day, but they made the whole process fun and the end result is an absolute treasure. If you get the opportunity to work with them — do not hesitate — TAKE IT!!!!!”

Fallingwater Films

“If you are thinking about hiring Fallingwater Films, stop thinking and book Ian right now. From our very first conversation, Ian was the definition of professional: clear, organized, calm, and genuinely invested in understanding us and what we wanted our day to feel like. On the wedding day itself, he showed up early to start capturing B roll, and filmed without ever being intrusive. speaking of film, his attention to detail was next level. What he delivered is not a “wedding video.” It’s a timeless film. Our final film, “The Warners,” feels like a feature-length story about our love, not a highlight reel. The pacing, the emotion, the storytelling, the music he integrated from different moments of our day, he carefully wove together the big moments with the quiet intimate ones. it genuinely feels cinematic. Watching it doesn’t just show us what the day looked like, it brings us right back to the vibe of how it felt. Our family has laughed, cried, and rewatched it more times than we can count. If you’re worried about being awkward on camera, or about whether a video will really be “worth it,” Ian completely puts those fears to rest. He makes the entire process easy, comfortable, and stress-free and the end result is something you will treasure for the rest of your life. Fallingwater Films creates work that is emotional, elevated, and truly timeless. We are beyond grateful we trusted Ian with our wedding day, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. This is one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, hands down.”

Hi I’m Anthony! I’ve had a camera in my hands since I was 14 - what started as a teenage curiosity quickly grew into a lifelong passion for storytelling. Over the years, I’ve taught myself everything I know about filmmaking, and after filming my first wedding five years ago, I knew I had found my purpose. There’s something truly special about capturing the emotion, laughter, and small, unspoken moments that make a wedding day unforgettable. It’s an honor every single time I get to help couples preserve that feeling forever

They are incredibly talented, so much fun to be around, and made the entire day feel effortless. Communication was fantastic from start to finish. As a bride, I had a million things to worry about, but they made the whole process completely stress-free. They were always kind, responsive, and easy to work with. When we received our highlight film and wedding movie, we were in tears. It truly felt like something out of a Disney movie. They captured every emotion so beautifully, and even the mountaintop shots—which we didn’t fully understand while filming but ended up being absolutely breathtaking. I was also nervous because it was our photographer’s first wedding, but they were so supportive and worked seamlessly with her. That kindness and professionalism meant so much.

“We cannot recommend Perfect Cadence Events highly enough! From our very first conversation with Logan, we knew we were in incredible hands. He was kind, thoughtful, humble, and incredibly responsive throughout the entire process - a true professional who also felt like a friend cheering us on through wedding planning. Logan made everything about the music setup effortless. He checked in regularly to make sure we were feeling good about the day (and even about things beyond music!), and he brought a calm, confident energy that instantly put us at ease. The day itself was flawless. Logan handled every moment - from our mountaintop ceremony to cocktail hour with live music, to a high-energy dance floor - with total mastery. During the ceremony, he adjusted the mic live to account for different voices and even the wind at the top of the mountain. During the reception, he kept every generation on the dance floor all night long. His transitions were seamless, his song choices were inspired, and he read the crowd perfectly, mixing eras and styles in a way that made everyone feel part of the celebration. Beyond all that technical skill, Logan was simply a joy to work with - genuinely kind, gracious, and dedicated to making the night unforgettable. Perfect Cadence truly lived up to its name. If you’re lucky enough to book Logan and the team at Perfect Cadence, do it. You’ll get not just an amazing DJ, but a wonderful human who will help make your wedding day absolutely perfect.”
