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.

ALENKA FILMS

  • Serves West Islip, NY

Hi! I'm Alëna! I’ve been making videos for over 10 years now. I believe in sucking the joy out of life and documenting it. It’s by immersing myself in travel that my eyes were first opened to videography. Being an adoptee from another country I fell in love with the process of collecting memories. I feel that my exposure to changing environments has allowed me to appreciate things from various perspectives and remain calm and assertive in fast pace situations. Such as weddings! I love capturing different traditions & religions AND of course documenting people in love or breaking the dance floor are my literal favs! Let's freakin' go yeah!?

I was on the fence about getting a videographer due to budgetary reasons and not knowing if I would really treasure it compared to photos. After several discussions with my family, I decided to book a videographer and found Alenka Films. I have to say, hiring Alenka Films to shoot our wedding was one of the best decisions we made! She went above and beyond to capture our day. From the pre-wedding discussions and check-ins, to the day-of logistics and everything after the day, Alena has been so responsive and communicative - I never had any worries about her ability to follow through and provide the best videos possible. She captured all of the most important parts of our day and even stayed a little late to get some amazing shots of our guests dancing. Since the wedding day, the videos were provided well within the given timeframes and are all so beautiful. Everyone I have shown the videos compliments them so much. I am so glad we hired Alena to film our day and that we have a beautiful video to look back on for years to come!

I craft something that is both cinematic and beautiful, but also deeply personal. My goal is to create something captivating that you can cherish for a lifetime, while at the same time giving you and your guests an amazing experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
The experience we had with Chad was 10/10. I'm a bit late reviewing but Chad did our wedding in May & I can't even put into words how great he was. We knew immediately Mist & Moss was perfect for us after meeting Chad on zoom when we were first searching for vendors. We knew nothing at all about wedding planning and he made us feel totally at ease, talked us through the whole process of how the video process worked and right off the bat made us feel like friends. The day of they were the PERFECT chill (but organized) presence we needed, they were there for every second and caught every moment perfectly. The final product WAY exceeded our expectations and we cannot thank you guys enough for our memories!!

  • Serves West Islip, NY

Hello! My name is Fen, nice to meet you online! I’m a freelance cinematographer and editor. I split my time between shooting weddings and indie films. I enjoy doing both because I love the thrill of operating a camera and I love people and stories! I have shot over 300 weddings and I edit everything myself. In my spare time I love swimming, hiking, skiing, traveling with my family, writing and learning all kinds of stuff. I’m very curious about the world!

Awarded Best of Zola
Fen was wonderful to work with for out wedding on October 8th, 2023! From the very first virtual meeting all the way through the big day itself, she was so friendly and professional! On the day of our wedding she coordinated with our photographer to get video capturing the entire day from start to finish, sometimes from the same angles as our photographer and at other times different angles or multiple angles all at once! We opted to receive both the full-length format video as well as the short highlight summary, and they are both fantastic! From the drone shots of the venue in the introduction, to the wonderful B-roll video clips in the transitions, and overlaid music at times where it made sense, the videos we received are just so wonderfully put together and capture the events of the day perfectly! The highlight video struck a great balance of events throughout the day and was great to be able to post to our socials. We asked for a small change to the highlight video, and Fen was more than accommodating and had an updated version sent back out to us very quickly. And when we received and watched the full 3 hour edit, we felt transported right back to that day and like were able to completely re-live it. We are so happy with our choice to work with Fen, and overjoyed to have this special record of our big day for the rest of our lives. Overall we cannot say enough good things about Fen and her work, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a videographer!

Margo Sees Stars

5.0

Woodstock, NY
  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $4,900
  • Serves West Islip, NY

Hi! I’m Julia, middle name Margo, a film school dropout and music buff who wants to make your wedding look like art. I'm here to represent diversity in the couples I work with and weddings I shoot (love is love), to give you something hyper-shareable that will instantly transport you in space and time for the rest of your lives, and to make you cry upon watching. The crying is very important. Bear with me on this analogy, but basically I like my wedding films like I like my salads: raw, organic, a little bit of quirk and flare, and consumed alongside great music. If this sound pretty good to you, have a look at my work and get in touch!

Awarded Best of Zola
We were on the fence about getting a videographer, partially because it seemed unnecessary and partially because we were worried that we would feel uncomfortable having a camera follow us around. But we met with Julia (Margo Sees Stars), and ultimately decided it was worth the risk. We could not be happier! Although Julia herself was booked for our wedding day, her colleague Mel was fantastic--she was friendly, unobtrusive, worked great with our photographer, and really put us with ease. And Julia's editing ability is off the charts. We opted for the package with a short teaser as well as a longer video, and both brought us to tears. We are so happy that we went with Margo Sees Stars for our special day. You will not be disappointd if you do the same!

This team was amazing. I got 2 photographers and 1 videographer for 10 hours at a reasonable rate. I was able to customize the timeline to prioritize what I wanted -- arrive at 1 pm and end at 11 (for some coverage of my after party). The preview gallery blew my mind. The fully gallery with videos came after 8 weeks, which is good! I'm very pleased, and would definitely recommend. They were also very patient when there were changes/hiccups in the schedule. I'm very grateful!

We’re Hungry Heart Films, a husband and wife wedding team in Brooklyn, NYC, and Upstate New York. We believe the best wedding films are unexpected and sincere, the kind of film that can transport you back to the feeling of that awesome day every time you watch it! Your vibe as a couple is unique and your wedding film should be too! We capture your day as it naturally unfolds, whether you're on the quiet side or throwing a rager to remember.

We're so happy we booked Brian and Rebecca of Hungry Heart!! They were both so open, honest, and answered all of questions before we even had a chance to ask them. We both don't love being in front of a camera and were worried about having both a photographer and videographer at the wedding, but Brian and Rebecca were so respectful of our space. They were the perfect combination of warm, approachable, and professional. Our final film is so beautiful, we've already watched it a million times. Thank you both so much!

After graduating from Parson's School of Art in Manhattan, I worked as a fine artist, my work involved photography and photo manipulation. I quickly discovered that I loved and excelled at photo retouching, and went on to work for some of the best photo retouching studios in New York. In 2009 I shot my first wedding, it was a dear friend of mine and the beautiful photos were featured in one of the biggest wedding magazines. I realized that I had found my calling and have been producing stunning wedding photographs with my amazing team and clients ever since.

While we haven't received our final set of photos, we are obsessed with our previews!!! We just got married last weekend and loved working with Ryan, Massimo, and Michael on our wedding day. They were all a very calming presence and directed us as needed to get the best shots/footage. Emma worked with us on our budget and was very transparent and communicative about what we could/couldn't do. We're really excited to get the rest and highly recommend Emma Cleary Photo & Video.
