You’ve poured your heart into this day, and I want to make sure you remember exactly how it felt! I’m Hector David, the filmmaker behind Ebullient Memories. Since 2016, I’ve captured over 400 weddings with one goal: to tell your story as true and authentic as the day it happend. From quiet, intimate exchanges to the wild dance floor; I focus on those in-between moments that matter most to you. Based in San Diego, I film across Southern AND Northern California and specialize in creating candid films that feel real, emotional, and true to you.

Awarded Best of Zola
We found David through a referral, and were immediately pleased with his workstyle. He has creative ways to make sure the wedding video is memorable, while tailoring it to the personality of the couple. For example, he surprised us by including a surprising amount of footage of our pups, even though they were only present for the ceremony. David and his team were very attentive throughout the whole wedding, and made sure to capture footage of all wedding guests, without being intrusive. We were surprised at all of the dancing sequences from our friends and family members, and they all looked very natural! David’s editing skills are also superb. We were concerned, because my husband has a very low voice, and a marching band played during our vows, so we thought that he had been completely drowned out. We were so happy when we watched our wedding video and saw that David was able to salvage the audio of our vows perfectly! We will recommend David in the future!

My style is vibrant, natural, and true to life—focused on authentic emotion and joyful moments.

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!

Finisterre Visuals 

5.0

  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Markleeville, CA

So what does finisterre mean? Finisterre is Latin. If you know some Spanish, you’ll recognize two words squeezed into one: “fin” and “tierra,” essentially meaning the world’s end. Don’t worry, not in an apocalyptic sense of the word — it’s actually a place. It’s where the Romans once stood in modern-day Spain. They looked across the vast Atlantic Ocean, and thought to themselves “is this the end of the road?” Finisterre is an ode to that majestic feeling of unknown. Getting married is one of those unique experiences.

This review is long overdue and for that we apologize! We hired Ryan and his team to be our videographers for our wedding at the Corner Barn in Graeagle, CA this past July and are so thankful for our decision. Ryan was the main videographer and brought an additional shooter. Between the two of them, they got absolutely amazing footage. Ryan is a mastermind with putting the footage all together and turning it into one beautiful video. All the little details were brought together in such an artful way that we are so impressed with. We loved his style of video, especially the documentary part. He interviewed important people, such as family members, MOH, and BM, at different parts throughout our special day and had those included in the video as well. Ryan was so kind and communicative throughout the whole process. It was obvious how knowledgeable and passionate he was and we were so comfortable working with him and trusting him with our most special day. He did a great job of thinking of every detail to make it special. Once the video was done, my husband and I received a portable video player that showed his work and it was such a great surprise! Overall, we could not recommend Ryan enough to hire as your videographer.

Wedding Weekender is redefining wedding video with a more authentic, accessible way to capture your celebration. We send camcorders for your friends and family to film candid moments across your wedding weekend — from getting ready to the dance floor and everything in between. Afterward, our editing team shapes that footage into a thoughtful, nostalgic wedding video that feels true to your celebrations. We believe meaningful wedding video should feel personal, accessible, and rooted in real moments.

Where do I start with Wedding Weekender… if you’re looking for a camcorder for your wedding/event and to capture all the silly, raw, fun, beautiful moments, Wedding Weekender IS IT. My maid of honors surprised us with this gift and the WW team was so helpful from the beginning. Our friend knew exactly what to do with the camera, it was small and compact, and people even felt comfortable passing it around to get different POVs. We shipped it back and what we got 2 months later was beyond our wildest dreams. They made it everything we wanted: nostalgic, fun, loving, and such a perfect snapshot of our weekend. I even had 2 small edits after they delivered the video and they had it back to us right away. The team processing and editing these videos truly have a magic touch. This was priceless and we can’t wait to relive our wedding through this video forever and ever. Thank you for being a part of our special day!

Her artistry, talent and the opulence mirrored my vision so much that I ended up firing my previously booked videographer!

We used Conner for our wedding on May 3, 2025. We were looking for a DJ and our photographer who had worked with him multiple times had recommended him…. Fast forward we found out he also did videography and we booked him for both- and we are so glad we did! He was so amazing, along with our photographer, they worked together so well and made sure we stayed on schedule and got all the moments captured we wanted. We almost didn’t go with videography but I’m so glad we decided to! He did such an amazing job with both the video and DJ. If we could do the day again, we would 100% have him again! He is so great to work with and so professional, I would recommend him to everyone! Thank you so much Conner for capturing the best day of our lives, the video was even better than we ever imagined.

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

Anthony captured ALL of our favorite moments during our wedding. He was very attentive and even helped guide us during certain moments when taking photos. I have recommended him to many friends and they all love him and his work!!

HEYYY! *waves hands* We are Leandra & Clinton Cunanan, owners and lead videographers of Food & Cake Wedding Films. We are huge advocates for doing exactly what you want on your wedding day. We had the most epic wedding of all time (ask us about it!), but we didn't hire a videographer. And now this why we do what we do. It's the best feeling knowing each one of our couples will be able to relive their wedding day for the rest of their lives. We didn't have that, and now we get to give that to you!

I am so blown away by not only the quality of Clint and Leandra's work as videographers, but also what wonderful people they are! Not even halfway through our first zoom with them to talk about what packages they offer and our vision for the day I knew they were the perfect fit for us! Being with them on the wedding day felt like hanging out with old friends, they were amazing at blending in to the crowd to capture candid moments while also giving us prompts that created some of our favorite memories of the day. They worked so well with our other vendors and I don't think our day would have been complete without them. They are masters at what they do, and also the perfect people to have during a busy and, at times, stressful day (Leandra was able to bussle my dress when no one else could get the loop on the buttons AND snagged me some appetizers when I was resting my feet after the receiving line, she was a lifesaver!) My husband and I both teared up watching our trailer and highlight reel, and then happy cried getting to see our whole ceremony, private vows, speeches, and first dances. I know this is footage we’ll be so happy to look back on in the years to come, not just of my husband and I but of our whole families as well! I'm so happy we found Food Cake, you will not regret hiring this fantastic couple!
