Brandon helped me with my engagement photos near a popular wedding spot he had shot near before. I had never been to San Diego and he helped me coordinate everything remotely which was amazing. He put a ton of thought into how things would turn out and was very flexible with timing and easy to work with. The photos turned out fantastic and my fiance and I are super happy! Would recommend him to anyone for any occasion.

Andrew & Melissa Aziz are a husband and wife team that shoot photography and videography for weddings, portraits, businesses, and events. Although Aziz Studios is a fairly new company, these two are no newbies to the photography and videography industry. Melissa has run her own successful photography company for 8 years, and Andrew has been shooting video now for 9 years. Aziz Studios is based in Southern California and have a second location in Seattle, Washington. They are also available to travel world wide!

As a wedding planner, I’ve had the privilege of working with Andrew and his team on several events, and I can honestly say they stand out as one of the absolute best. Not only is Andrew incredibly talented, but his eye for detail and his ability to capture the essence of a couple’s love story are nothing short of magical. Every video he delivers feels like a work of art. Trust me when I say that hiring Andrew and his team will be one of the best decisions you make while planning your wedding. He’s not just a cinematographer—he’s an artist who will give you memories to treasure for a lifetime. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

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.

We used Eivan's for both engagement photos and our wedding and couldn't be happier. They are wonderful about asking for your input and making sure you are truly happy with what you are getting. The photographers and videographers are the perfect mixture of professional and casual/friendly so that you are comfortable. We loved Rachael H for engagement photos, and Heather G (photo) and Dmytro L (video) for our wedding. They also actually care about you and the event itself, starting with asking you about your story. We got both a photographer, videographer, and engagement photos for a great bundle price, which was so helpful. Customer service is also fantastic about answering questions thoroughly and quickly. After booking and after the events, they send you information about what to expect, etc. I did quite a but of research into photography companies, and I would highly highly recommend Eivan's!

Gezim was the best! My husband is not one to like being in front of a camera, so our one request was that our videographer be somewhat of a fly on the wall, and Gezim did just that! He got the most beautiful shots of us and in such a natural way. He worked so well with our photographer, and had a really calming personality the whole day! We were so happy with the quality of his work, especially since we wanted film that was short and sweet. Now we have a beautiful video to share with our family (and future children).

Hi! Courtney here (that's me on the left!). Shutter and Sound is the brainchild of renowned wedding videographer Ryan Geldermann. Ryan began his wedding videography career in 2010 in Los Angeles and quickly became recognized as one of the top videographers in the U.S.. After relocating to DC and still receiving countless inquiries from all corners of the country, Ryan decided to recruit and train a few talented friends so he could continue offering the quality wedding videography he’s known for in SoCal and eventually over 10 cities. Shutter and Sound is a very small group of filmmakers dedicated to turning your big day into a work of art.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are thrilled with the stunning work of Shutter and Sound! Their highly talented videographers perfectly captured all the love and memories of our wedding day, and helped preserve them in film. Reliving the day by watching our highlight video brought us and our family to tears of joy. Every beautiful moment was captured with crystal-clear visuals from getting ready with our wedding attendants to our sparkler send off at the end of the night. The drone footage and details shots also perfectly blended with the rest of the film and helped set the stage for our perfect day. We can’t thank Shutter and Sound enough for the creativity and care they put into making our wedding video. I highly recommend!

Boutique Wedding Photo & Video Studio based in Los Angeles, California. Our goal is to have your wedding photos and video serve as a testimony for the generations to come that true love exists and that the happiest moments are those that are shared in the presence of your loved ones.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I knew it would be an important task hiring a photo/videographer for our wedding. There’s SO many options and styles out there that it’s also daunting to commit to one. We found Cruzio Studios on The Knot and we are incredibly grateful we did. We were drawn to their journalistic style of capturing love between partners: intimate, natural (doesn’t look too posed), synergizes with the location, delicate, and sweet. After having phone calls with other vendors, we were most excited to work with Cruzio. Not only do they have an amazing portfolio (easily accessible on their beautiful website), but they have great packages to offer their clients. Our package came with an engagement shoot and the results were mind-blowing. I know that sounds hyperbolic, but my partner & I don’t show a lot of PDA and the Cruzio team captured our love so sweetly. When we got the photos and video short, we kept on saying, “That’s us!!” Given their portfolio, we trusted their expertise and artistic eye. Not only were they kind while providing clear directions and great ideas, but they’ll do their best to get the optimal shot. They’re immensely generous with their talents considering all the thought and detail they put into their product. Also, they’re really easy to talk to. We felt like we were just hanging out with friends who are very talented photo/videographers! Cruzio Studios definitely did not disappoint on our wedding day. I’m definitely a planner, so I had a list of group photos we wanted for our wedding day. The Cruzio team had that list with them and ensured we got the shots. They are so professional and stuck to our wedding day timeline with such grace. And although our venue spaces weren’t the biggest, they adapted. To that, my husband & I never felt like they were ever in the way or super noticeable. And, of course, their final products are amazing. They captured the excitement leading up our first look & ceremony and joyous celebration during the reception. Also, the romantics are simply so pretty and caught our love perfectly. It’s so lovely to look back at our special day through their talents and lenses. We consider ourselves fortunate to have had them in our wedding dream team. If you’d like a wedding photo/videographer who are fun & easy to work with, incredibly talented, and experts in their crafts, look no further. Thank you, Cruzio Studios, for everything!!

I’m Kevin, a wedding filmmaker who believes your day should be remembered the way it felt. You’ve spent months designing your dream wedding—every detail, every moment, every person means something. My job is to capture that meaning and turn it into a film that brings the emotion back every time you watch it. I work quietly, intentionally, and with a deep respect for your day. The laughter, the stillness, the heartbeat of the moment—I look for the parts most people miss, and I weave them into a story that feels alive. If you want your wedding day remembered with beauty, emotion, and intention, you’re in the right place.

Awarded Best of Zola
We met Kevin at the Bridal Bazaar last year, and from the moment we started talking to him, we knew he was the one we wanted to capture our wedding day. He was so professional, passionate, and genuinely excited about what he does, which immediately put us at ease. Throughout the entire process, he was organized, communicative, and worked so well with our photographer. Kevin has an incredible artistic eye and a real talent for direction. He knew exactly how to position us, when to step in, and when to let moments unfold naturally. Everything he did made it feel like we were part of a movie while still keeping everything authentic and true to us. He also brought along a second shooter and used a drone, which added such an amazing cinematic touch. He didn’t miss a single moment. We’ve already gotten our sneak peek video back, and people keep saying it looks like a movie. The editing, the pacing, and the emotion are all so beautifully done. If that short clip is any indication of what’s to come, we absolutely cannot wait to see the full videos. We’re so grateful we found Kevin and can’t recommend him enough to anyone looking for a videographer who truly cares about their craft and their couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
Initially, my husband and I weren’t even considering using a videographer on our wedding day. But after we learned that some of our most cherished family members were unable to attend in person due to medical issues, we reconsidered and went on the hunt for a livestream option as well as an edited highlight video that we could have as a forever keepsake. We spoke to several videographers and Tony was the ONLY one to work with us on the livestream without charging an insane amount of money. He helped troubleshoot streaming platforms and software and even met with us in person beforehand to make sure things ran as smooth as possible. He was incredibly kind and patient while maintaining a professional attitude both before and on our wedding day. It did take a little longer than expected for us to receive the edited footage of our highlight video but the final product was everything we hoped for and more. We are incredibly grateful to have been able to include those members of our family who were unable to make the journey in person, and that’s all because of Tony. Thank you for everything!!

If you’re reading this review, you’re likely considering Steven and Wild Light Films as part of your big day. DO IT!! We were originally drawn to his unique style of work, music-video like approach, and storytelling ability in capturing the essence of people’s wedding days. Working with Steven was incredible and we can’t say enough about how much we loved his work. We booked him back in 2019 for our 2020 wedding, but of course with COVID we had to push it back a year. He was super flexible and accommodating, and we still figured out a plan to have video footage of an intimate ceremony in 2020, as well as the original plan for 2021. He did such an amazing job incorporating the two ceremonies together into one seamless video, which he turned around even quicker than we expected! Steven is a delight to work with—truly a genuinely kind person. His video editing craftsmanship and storytelling are compelling—rewatching our video + highlights felt like taking us right back to the memories and joy of our day. Do yourself and your future self a favor and get Steven to make your wedding video that you’ll cherish for years to come.

Chris was amazing to work with. From the start, the pre-planning was super straightforward and gave us total confidence in what to expect. On the day, he worked seamlessly with our photographer - they felt like such a great team and made my fiance and I feel like celebrities for a day. The videos themselves blew us away. The framing, the balance of music and natural sound, and the way he captured the energy of the space (the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles) made it feel like we were right back at our wedding. The sounds quality in particular was unexpectedly amazing-vows, speeches, etc. The end product was cinematic yet tender and honest, and gave us a chance to see the day through our friends’ and families’ eyes. The finished video took a few months, but it was absolutely worth the wait. Reliving the day in this way has been such a gift, and we’re so grateful. Couldn’t recommend Chris more highly.

From the moment we first spoke with Dereck from DereckDavisVideography, we knew we were in good hands. His communication style was thorough, kind, and easy to work with. On the day of our wedding, Dereck was professional, on time, and captured the most beautiful video footage that allows us to relive all the special moments. Dereck asked all the major questions prior to the event, so we didn't have to worry about a thing the day of. His passion for his work really shone through, and the final product is a stunning video that brings us back to all the little memories and emotions of our wedding day. We are so grateful to Dereck and highly recommend him to any couple looking for an amazing videographer.

Our wedding business started out with me shooting a wedding video for a very dear friend of mine in 2017. I posted the video to a Facebook business page and BOOM! It received 200,000 views and we started receiving hundreds of inquiries from couples around the PNW. Every year I would book 30-40 weddings doing photo and video for couples. When COVID struck, we had a year crashing into the next year. We had to adapt. So I grew our company to 8 teams of pro photographers/videographers to cover weddings around the US. There is nothing better than capturing love on the biggest day ever. Every day we are thankful to be able to do this.
