He worked well with our photographers which is always a good thing! He was extremely professional the entire day and captured all of our favorite moments.

I now have memories of my parents, grandparents, and friends that I’ll treasure forever. I almost tried to DIY the whole thing, but realistically editing my own wedding footage would’ve taken me until our first anniversary. They made everything fun and effortless. Thank you SO much!”

“I am SO glad we decided to have a videographer, and we are so glad it was Gordon!!! Our wedding day went by unbelievably fast, and there are so many little moments that we didn't get to see or fully take in while everything was happening. As a bride, it never clicked for me that I wouldn't be able to see my family walking down the aisle until the day of! Having our wedding video means we get to experience those moments again... our vows, speeches, our families' reactions, all of the little candid moments, and things we didn't even know were happening. Gordon was so easy to work with and was incredibly professional without ever making us feel like we were constantly being filmed, especially as two naturally camera-shy people. He did such an amazing job of capturing everything naturally, and we barely even noticed the cameras were there. The final video was honestly more than we could have hoped for. It feels so personal to us and captured the feeling of the day in a way that photos alone just can't. I already know we're going to be watching it for years and years. If you're on the fence about hiring a videographer, PLEASE do it. Being able to hear and see our wedding day again is something I'm already so grateful we have.

Paul Hairston is an award winning and nation-wide wedding, documentary and commercial filmmaker for over 13 years. He loves anything and everything about human storytelling and creating impact through the medium of film. He strives to capture your special day with earnestness, trust and top shelf visuals. Throughout his career he has worked to blend vérité filmmaking with a production value those stories and emotions deserve, while never getting in your way. Providing painterly and elegant coverage with an unobtrusive but attentive presence that documents every unique detail is Paul’s goal with every film.

“Paul and his assistant were absolutely amazing. I actually found him when googling videographers in my area and LOVED all his work as I could tell he took true pride in his films and caught all the little details of the weddings he videoed. When setting up a meeting, I realized he actually lived 4 hours away from me... BUT that didn't stop him! He was willing to travel with his assistant for a VERY cheap price and was there the whole time. He actually asked ME if he could come earlier to ensure he got all the little details on camera and capture every minute of us getting ready, etc. He was quick to respond throughout the whole planning process prior to the big day as well. Paul was in school for cinematography at the time which is very evident in his work as you can tell that film is his true passion in life through his work. We had no idea he was even there and he stayed until the very end (little did I know) to ensure he captured everything on film. As most brides (and grooms) do, we put a LOT of planning into our big days and a lot of thought into every single little detail. Of course your own wedding day is such a blur you never even get to appreciate all your hard work... but thanks to Paul, I am able to see every little part of the wedding from the place settings to all the little signs we had everywhere. He did an amazing job capturing every moment and I love my highlight film. Thanks to him, I get to witness and relive what was my dream wedding over and over again... I knew I wanted to hire him when his highlight films of complete strangers brought me to tears! He is now videoing my brother's wedding and a family friends... So Yes.... I HIGHLY recommend him :)"”

I became indulged in the story-telling of my wedding couples. Being surrounded by the excitement, sometimes nervous couples, and their loving families and friends made the filming such a rush. Then to have the honor to edit a film where their personalities and love shine through is the greatest privilege. I want to take them on a journey back in time to the most epic day where they laugh and cry with all their family and friends. I make films that last the ages. I love to think about how my couples might show their kids or even grandkids someday.

“Trevor of Maloch media goes big when it comes to wedding filmmaking. He will do anything to get the shot, and uses all the newest and best equipment to make sure your day captured beautifully. He works seamlessly with other vendors so that the day goes smoothly. Highly recommend!”

“We weren’t sure how important videography would end up being, but this team made the decision easy. They are calm, professional, and genuinely did exactly what we expected. On the day of the wedding it all felt natural, and the final videos were great. We were really excited to watch it with our friends and family! If you’re trying to decide whether to book someone, definitely reach out and talk with them. The conversation alone eased so much stress for us.”
