Wow! There is truly not enough room to write about how many things impressed us about Sarah. She handled the entire day like the pro that she is and worked seamlessly with her second shooter and our videographer to capture each shot in tandem. Extra special shoutout to her for helping me with my hair as my curls started falling! She captured all of the best angles/lighting/moments between my new husband and I, ensuring we felt comfortable and at ease the entire time. Just a few weeks later, we had all of the edited photos ready to review! Truly, such a quick turnaround in comparison to my other friends. So grateful for the opportunity to work with Sarah and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing photographer!

At Hovey Films, we specialize in luxury wedding videography rooted in emotional storytelling, fine-art visuals, and timeless craftsmanship. Based in Santa Barbara, we create cinematic wedding films that capture not just events, but the intimate essence of your celebration. With an editorial eye and a documentary-style approach, each heirloom-quality film honors your love story and legacy. Our work is guided by a commitment to quality, designed to preserve your most meaningful moments — not just for today, but for generations to come.

I have been married for over 51 years and at that time we didn't have any high quality video services available. I looked a the Hoveyfilms.com site with fresh eyes to see what is available now as my grandkids are getting married. The first thing that caught my eye on the Hovey Films web site was the Wedding Package Finder link. I enjoyed going through the questions that were well thought out and educational. They uncovered aspects of the wedding day that I would not have considered including in my video. Now, if I had it to do over again I would want to capture an exciting new look and feel that I know Jesse Hovey can produce.

She’s so down-to-earth and made us feel completely at ease throughout the entire process. During our engagement shoot, she guided us effortlessly, showing us how to pose in a way that felt natural and comfortable. We're both not usually in front of the camera so I worried that it would be hard but with Leslie, we felt so confident, had an amazing time and the pictures she captured were absolutely stunning!

Michele was our full wedding planner. Our wedding went perfect without a single hitch and it was all thanks to Michele. We had the caterer for our rehearsal dinner drop out one week before the event and Michele found us a replacement within an hour; and the replacement caterer was a slam dunk. Everyone loved the food. On the day of the wedding and rehearsal dinner Michele and Dan did everything. And I mean everything. She set up tables, positioned flowers and welcome signs and seating charts. She ironed over disagreements with vendors and never once did we have to lift a finger. It is a common saying that the bride and groom never enjoy their own wedding but we thoroughly had a blast at ours thanks to Michele. She is forever our go-to recommendation to all our friends getting married. If she has availability to plan your wedding, book her.

So the music for our wedding was CRUCIAL for me as it had to be PERFECT. I knew that dance floor had to be LIT. I randomly came across an Instagram video of Justin mixing songs and knew he was the guy to pull it off. It was the exact high energy and excitement we wanted. Justin took so many calls and texts from us explaining each vision that we had from our first dance to special surprise dances and moments even custom mixing tracks for us. No matter the time or day or random thought I had he was totally reachable and ON BOARD. After the wedding we had so many compliments from people about our dance floor and music. Truly it was a BLAST and we could not have done it without Justin. Not to mention great MC skills he totally knew exactly when and how to queue us. The dance floor was going off so much so that we didn't even change songs for the cake cutting and kept it going till we had to shut down El Paseo. BOOK JUSTIN

Leah's photography skills were superb and she provided us with so many beautiful pictures of us, our friends, venues, and so much more. Her turnaround time on getting us the photos was so quick too! Not only did she provide great photos, but she assisted as our "day-of-coordinator." Leah eased our fears so many times leading up to the wedding, she was easy to get a hold of or would reach out to us to make sure our wedding was coming together, and helped us communicate with some our other vendors when we needed an extra hand.

It is so hard to put into words what Natalie and her team at Surraya Events meant to us. She created the best day of our lives flawlessly and we will always be grateful to her! From the second we first spoke we knew she was incredibly attentive to detail. Without skipping a beat she would recall comments we made earlier in the conversation and circle back to answer any previous questions. She is a master communicator, incredible organizer, go-getter, and a truly sweet person. When choosing a wedding planner or coordinator it was most important to us that we receive value out of the cost. When I say Natalie blew us away I really mean it! She went above and beyond our contract to complete the wedding day vision. Her ability to coordinate vendors is next level; she is so talented at quickly getting answers to people that need one.

Angie, you were absolutely incredible to work with. We had a wonderful time partnering with Angie to create our dream wedding. She was recommended to us by our venue, The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, and we are so happy we chose her! Angie has such a positive personality, always kept everything under control, and never let us feel overwhelmed. It was so smooth at times we wondered what we were forgetting, and Angie always reassured us that we had it all covered. She did it ALL - from getting our vendor rates and availability sorted to showing us all our options and details that made the day come to life. Through our regularly scheduled calls and all the messaging in between, she asked all the right questions to help guide the process, (even for things we hadn't even thought about) and was always available for the one-off questions and to keep us sane, especially during those final two critical months before the big day. Angie also has a wonderful website that organized all our to-do lists, inspo pics, budget info, timelines, vendor details, etc. We didn’t realize how essential something like this was for keeping us on track, and it was little extra details like this that made such a difference. It's because of Angie that we had such wonderful vendors, a significantly less painful planning experience, and a flawlessly executed wedding day!

Your wedding deserves more than just photos—it deserves an experience. With over 15 countries captured, I create timeless, editorial, and emotionally rich images that transport you back to the moment. Every glance, every touch, every fleeting second—preserved with artistry and intention.

Wow. Just wow. Choosing Moments by Frank was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the moment we reached out, Frank and his team were responsive, warm, and genuinely excited about capturing our day. It felt like working with friends who just happened to be incredibly talented photographers and videographers. On the wedding day, they blended in so effortlessly that our guests kept asking if they were longtime friends of ours. They made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, and their energy and kindness helped ease every bit of nervousness. They knew exactly when to step in for direction and when to let moments unfold naturally. And then came the photos… breathtaking. Every image told the story of our day with raw, elegant emotion. They captured the big, epic moments but also the fleeting ones—the teary glances, the spontaneous laughter, the way our parents looked at us. Looking through our gallery felt like reliving the best day of our lives, frame by frame. If you're on the fence about hiring Moments by Frank, just do it. They’re more than just photographers; they’re storytellers who will make your experience as seamless and joyful as the final product. Couldn’t recommend them more!
