Awarded Best of Zola
Discovery & Initial Communication I learned about Gui’s services through word of mouth. A friend highly recommended him after hiring him for her son’s birthday party. Based on her glowing review, I decided to hire him for my very intimate civil ceremony. My main goal was to have the event beautifully documented so we could share the final video with family and close friends. From the very start, communication with Gui was seamless. He was responsive, efficient, and incredibly patient when addressing my detailed inquiries. One aspect I truly appreciated was his initiative to schedule a pre-event video call. This gave him the opportunity to get to know us, understand our personalities, and discuss our expectations for the shoot. His willingness to listen and incorporate our ideas made the entire process feel collaborative and personal. Planning & Preparation One of the reasons I chose Gui was his ability to include a highlight reel in the video package—something I really wanted. During our meeting, he welcomed my ideas and suggestions for the final video, showing a genuine interest in delivering a product that reflected our vision. Gui’s level of preparation was impressive. He took the time to scout the courthouse and a nearby park beforehand, ensuring we had the best possible locations for our shoot. His preparedness and attention to detail gave me peace of mind leading up to the event. The Day of the Ceremony On the day of our civil ceremony, everything went smoothly. Gui greeted us warmly at the courthouse, immediately setting a positive and reassuring tone. His calm and easygoing demeanor helped ease my nerves—something I truly appreciated amidst the mix of adrenaline and excitement of the day. He captured moments effortlessly, allowing us to be present and enjoy our special day without feeling overly directed or staged. Final Thoughts & Recommendation Overall, I couldn’t be happier with Gui’s work. His professionalism, creativity, and dedication to capturing our special day exceeded my expectations. If you’re looking for a videographer who is not only talented but also personable and well-prepared, I highly recommend Gui. 10/10 – Would definitely hire him again!

That's the stuff that lasts longer than a few years after your wedding. The stuff your kids will pull out and watch.

Ben is such a talented videographer! We are super happy with the film and had a great experience working with him. His artistic take on editing and music makes the film an emotion triggering art piece. We also really appreciate his support during the pandemic. We had to reschedule twice during the whole process, not only was he flexible, he didn't even raise the price after two years and flew all the way to Seattle for our wedding. Thank you, Ben!

The other videographers just let me know they were available for our date and then gave me their prices. Brent wanted to know how we met, how my husband proposed, etc., not to mention he responds to emails and texts and any questions very fast. On our wedding day, Brent help keep everyone moving along on and on time for all of our events and timeline details. He was so easy to work with and captured our day perfectly.

From coastal California celebrations to romantic Pacific Northwest weddings, Kristiann creates timeless images and films that feel natural, joyful, and true to your story.

Awarded Best of Zola
When we were initially planning our wedding I didn’t think getting a videographer was necessary. However, my now husband convinced we needed one. And as much it pains me to admit he was right about anything I’m so glad we got a videographer and not just any videographer but Kristiann. I really didn’t know what to expect but I can say that without equivocation she exceeded all expectations. She was communicative and always responded to questions immediately. When our first wedding had to be canceled 3 days before our original wedding date Kristiann was so kind and accommodating. When it came to our day finally arriving she was there early, professional and so friendly. She made us all feel comfortable and was not intrusive at all. After getting back our video not only was it beautifully made but it was so wonderful to see the moments she captured and the things we missed. Not only that but so many of our guests commented on how nice and wonderful she was. Without a doubt I would rebook and recommend Kristiann in a heartbeat.

Still Do was so helpful and professional from the very first meeting. We booked for just videography services.

Matt, our backup videographer, is amazing! He stepped in a few days before the wedding with professionalism and positive energy. He captured every detail in perfect style. I just had a little bad experience with how they deliver raw footage unprofessionally. Folders and clips are messed up and disorganized. But our experience with Still Do Media is incredible. We are always thankful for making our wedding such a memorable and joyful experience!

Simply OBSESSED. I worked with the Wedding Weekender for my bachelorette and wedding and both times was SO happy with the result. The team is prompt and communicative, answering our questions before and quick to provide our footage afterward. It was such a bonus to get all the raw footage in addition to the final video - my husband and I watched clips every night on our honeymoon, the best way to reminisce!! I loved having content that was from the POV of my guests, it makes you feel like you’re right back in the middle of things. Lastly, this was such a cost effective solution when you already have so many other things to worry about. Video was the first thing we cut from our budget, but with this we were able to have it all.
