I can’t recommend SD Wedding Films enough! We were on the fence about whether to hire a videographer for our wedding, and I am so glad that we did. Our main concern was the price, but after doing a lot of research we found that this company offers a lot of flexibility and different packages so you only pay for what you want. With any package, they provide you with the raw footage that has the video linked with the audio, which we learned isn’t necessarily guaranteed with other companies. So, in addition to having our highlight reel, we have all of the footage from our wedding and can go back and watch everything! The day goes by quickly and there’s a lot you miss, so it was great to go back and relive it. The team is also very friendly and pleasant to work with. They have great communication, both in person and in writing. The videographer conducted his work in a very discrete manner, and knows how to work around people and in collaboration with other vendors. It was absolutely worth it, I’m so glad that we decided to hire a videographer. The final product was amazingly well done, and I’m so thankful that we have footage from the day. Thank you SD Wedding Films for beautifully capturing our favorite day!!

  • Serves Lake Forest, CA

If you're here, then you are probably looking for a wedding videographer. And there's so many out there that it's tough to choose which one will be a good fit for your wedding day. But too often, videographers make the same type of wedding films that aren't that different from the other hundreds out there making the videos feel generic, unauthentic, and boring. Meaning it's hard to differentiate all the videographers you see when on the search.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jaime and the team at One in a Million Films were absolutely phenomenal to work with. Their communication was smooth, quick, and efficient from start to finish. The quality of their work was perfect - they executed a hilarious, Office-style edit that I had requested, which was something they had never done before. The final video was high quality, personable, and captured so many amazing emotions from happy to funny to hyped. The entire filming process was seamless and it's insane how beautifully they were able to bring our special day to life. I cannot recommend One in a Million Films enough!

In everything I do, I strive to do my best. When I started filming weddings in 2016 I put in my whole effort to observe the couples I worked with to best tell their story. In 3 years I shot over 150 weddings and though I know how weddings should flow, I'm still just as much an observer as I was when I started. Since every couple is unique, I believe their video should reflect that.

Anatoliy is from Kazakhstan, where he studied transportation technology at Karaganda State Technical University, before getting his MFA in filmmaking from New York Film Academy. Susie is from LA, and she studied molecular & cellular biology at Harvard University (along with film and animation), before getting her MS in computer science from UChicago. While we were both in engineering, deep down, we always had a passion for storytelling. And one day, we decided that life was far too short for us not to do what we loved: creating and sharing real stories.

I chose Anatoliy K Weddings for my wedding this past January 2021 back in the midst of the pandemic. He was very responsive with all of my inquiries and concerns. Even if I had emailed him a million times that day, he didn't make me feel like I was bothering him or I was wasting his time and I loved that. We worked together on an engagement shoot as well prior to the wedding that he incorporated into my Same Day edit video during the wedding day and let me tell you, it was hands down THE BESTEST VIDEO I HAVE EVER SEEN. And I'm not being biased either because it was my wedding video! Literally, everyone was in SHOCK when the video was played during the reception and it incorporated some shots from the engagement shoot, some getting ready footage and even up until minutes before the video was played. Anatoliy really captures the perfect lighting, the perfect shot, and has a vision of how to make you look fabulous in every way. After the wedding, I received my wedding photos within the time frame he promised I would receive my photos and he was beyond accommodating about sending over extra photos of details that I wanted to keep for myself. Overall, Anatoliy K Weddings was the best choice and exceeded ALL of my expectations. If you don't believe me, watch our video. It's absolute perfection!!
