BENJAMIN THOMAS FILM

Los Angeles, CA
  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves San Francisco, CA

My name is Ben. I am a LA-based Wedding Filmmaker who runs on emotion-driven films that tell the story of you as a couple. The wedding day for sure! - But lets be honest, the wedding day is only whatit is because of who you are together before and after the day is done. Let's get some of that. That's the stuff that lasts longer than a few years after your wedding. The stuff your kids will pull out and watch.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

Bustle & Twine specializes in documentary wedding videography - telling the story of your day through all the beautiful details, unexpected surprises, and candid emotions as they unfold. We strive to capture every moment of your day while keeping a low profile.

We hired B&T for our wedding videography as part of a package with our photography. It was so seamless and they were so professional! They did an amazing job capturing all the sweet moments of our big day while somehow being barely noticeable. The trailer, highlight reel, and ceremony/reception videos were so sweet, we cried while watching them. We loved working with the whole B&T team so much, I absolutely would not hesitate to work with them again. Just really wonderful people who do fantastic videography.

Artistic Emotional Cinema. Dream Images. I am an innovator, and highly motivated. My experience with cinema camera, lenses, Steadicam stabilizer, audio, and lighting allows me to confidently and enthusiastically create exciting real life motion pictures, starring YOU. I will be open and honest with you, and quickly show you what I can bring to your special day. Let me know exactly what you want, and I will work consistently with you to provide it. My goal is to create movies and videos which are authentically you.

Bruce gave us exactly what we asked for and the entire experience was easy and seamless especially compared to most wedding vendors. We wanted more documentary style footage, which he provided us throughout the full night, as well as some beautiful video editing for key moments. Bruce captured everything and you never even knew he was there, worked well with the photographer and is nothing but professional. Bonus, the prices are incredible reasonable.

Fueled by nostalgic recalling we aim to create a film that is timeless and authentic. Motel Cinema is based out of San Diego, Ca and our approach to weddings is inspired by the untraditional travelers before us, who hit the road in search of adventure into the unknown. We don't like boxes and we don't want wedding films that fit into one. If that tickles your fancy let's get weird.

Awarded Best of Zola
Motel Cinema, was the most thoughtful and collaborative videographer we interviewed. From first meeting to execution he provided clear communication and went above and beyond thinking through every detail. His style is unique and captures intimate moments artfully. I cherish our video and watch it over and over again. If you are looking for a video that will stand the test of time look no further.

Alanna Morgan Videography

Seattle, WA
  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves San Francisco, CA for additional fees

I aim to provide a unique, meaningful experience filled with adventure, laughter, and a whole lot of love. My main goal is to ensure that not only do you receive a kick-ass gallery or video that brings back all the feelings from your day, but that you have an INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE throughout the entire journey! Your wedding day should be fun, STRESS-FREE and memorable. Simple as that. And I will do everything I can throughout the entire process to make sure it is nothing less.

My husband and I have had several photo shoots with Alanna over the past couple of years, and each session has been filled with love and laughter. We aren't super comfortable in front of the camera, but Alanna put us at ease and captured our candid moments instead of making us awkwardly pose. She is an excellent communicator and so easy to work with leading up to, during and after the photo shoots. We received our galleries way faster than expected, and we could not be happier with the end results. If you're looking for a fun, compassionate, adventurous photographer who will capture your love story- do yourself a favor and hire Alanna, you won't regret it!

I cannot thank Saja and Mawaddah Productions enough for producing the wedding film of my dreams! Saja was a joy to work with. She is exactly the type of person you want around you on your wedding day: calm, kind, and professional.

Better Half Wedding Video

5.0

Chicago, IL
  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves San Francisco, CA for additional fees

Better 1/2 started in 2011 in the San Francisco Bay Area. In 2019, I relocated to Chicago. I've filmed about 30 weddings for couples with a range of venues and guest counts. What's consistent is my style, which is personal and beautiful. I tell each couple's wedding story in a tailor-cut video, highlighting the big moments and spotlighting the small ones.

As a wedding photographer, working with videographers often makes my job more difficult. In my experience, most videographers try to create moments by having people do things they would never normally do. They are often an obstacle for photographers to work around. Sometimes multiple videographers are working to get all the angles and they end up creating something of a spectacle of an event when folks are just trying to be natural and enjoy themselves. I had a hard time recommending videographers to my wedding couples... until I met Jenn. Jenn from Better Half Wedding Videography is the exception. She is an incredibly nice person, super respectful of people's time and space. She brings a calming presence to weddings and eases people's nervousness. Jenn is upfront, honest, and discreet. Her work is fun and natural. I am so bummed that she no longer lives in California. When people ask about videographers, I still recommend her. She is the best!

Dane is so professional, and knowledgeable about what he does. But he is also so much fun to work with, and very responsive. He cares immensely about his art, and it shows. His turn around times are impressive, especially with the level of detail he creates. I wouldn’t hire anyone else for videography.

Hi! I'm a 22-year-old videographer from Stonington, CT! I love capturing moments and experiences and I am so so happy I can do this as a job. I have been working in weddings for the past 3 years and have loved every minute of it. There's no story that I don't want to tell!

Rippetoe Studios
San Francisco, CA
  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $1,900

I’ll gladly admit I’m not the photographer for everyone, but if getting married in the woods with a taco truck and a few friends around sounds like something you would be into, I’m sure we could get along. I always suggest that you talk to as many photographers/videographers as you can before booking one. Find the person that truly connects with you, and book them. Try to hire someone you would be genuine friends with. When you are comfortable and trust me it allows me to shoot uninhibited, and when I have freedom you get the best images.

Hi! We're Ashton and Gabe, two dorks who became best friends, fell in love, and got married.
