“We did a lot of research looking into different vendors to use for our various wedding needs. After locking down our photographer, I realized I wanted something a little less "typical" and something more "creative" for my video memories. I think that Andrew and his team hit a very happy middle-ground of artistic quality over corporate event-video, and the very expensive arthouse productions I got quotes from.
Firstly, they arrived on early, which is on time, and wasted no time getting started. There was no downtime, and every minute they were on site was working to get us the best footage, shots, and coverage of our wedding. Beyond that, they got creative shots, angles, and used a different cameras from different perspectives. They were able to figure out how to get clean audio of the important speeches and readings. And to put it all together, they created an amazing 6 minute video of our event that we've been able to share with everyone. The editing is anything but standard faire, and shows an artistic care to our specific event, the words said, and how they juxtapose over the events details. Oh and while I thought the Drone shots were not necessary, I'm so happy they got them- they looked AWESOME.
Some more technical things we loved about Instillwonder is that when I asked what equipment they used to shoot on, they actually answered me. The fact that they were shooting with mirrorless cameras, not typical DSLRs, and used gimbals for motion/stability put me at ease knowing that the footage wouldn't be static and would feel more alive.
They also were the only company that would give me a discount (not charge extra) to be given my raw footage. This helped our budget greatly, and now (as a former video editor) I'm able to play with all the footage and have it saved forever.
Overall, they were communicative, friendly, and attentive to my events needs. I can't recommend their work more, and am excited to see them give other couples the same wonderful experience we received.”
