Freshly landed from Paris, France. Christophe has been a travel photographer for the past ten years and decided to expand his creative horizons toward white dresses and bow ties here in California. His European touch will definitely bring something special to your wedding day.

My wife and I knew that there were two sections of our wedding that we were not willing to skimp on: the menu - and the photographer. We have seen our fair share of "wow, you paid for those photos?" from past weddings - and even some other portfolios from other local photographers. We met Chris and his team in 2016 as we prepared for our 2017 wedding, originally finding him as we looked for a wedding photographer (only), and after seeing his work on his website - my wife and I fell in love with his work and what he did for other couples. We noticed that he also specialized in videography, which was not something we had originally budgeted. But figured when we met him in person to go over our wedding vision - we would see how it might work out and if it would fit into our budget. Chris is an awesome person, and you'll fall in love with his personality and professionalism (apart from his actual product!). We loved who he was and what we saw from his past work so much, that between that first meeting and the wedding - we hired him to take our engagement photos, too. During the next few months, we discussed how to incorporate two photographers and one videographer into our wedding that would still work in our budget - and we could not have been happier. It was the best decision we made. The photos are 10/10, the video trailer that he edited for us is 10/10. We've since used Chris for other projects of ours as we continue through post-wedding life, and he remains a good contact that we have referred to other couples for their wedding days, and other occasions. You won't be disappointed here.

While our goal is of course for you have have an incredible wedding film. That is second of course to ensuring you have an amazing wedding day experience. We want to make sure that when you think back to your wedding day that you think of memories of laughter and tears with family and friends, rather than us with our cameras in your face. This is why we prioritize candid, documentary-style filmmaking over forcing moments. We want you to live your story so we can tell it.

The team was incredibly responsive, and quick to answer any questions I had. They have a client portal which made communication easy and a lot less hard to keep track of. On the day of the actually wedding, the team was very sociable, kind, and personable!

If you’re looking for a San Diego wedding videographer, we offer a reliable and affordable service that’s available for weddings and other types of events.

He set a goal to create a videography service that would be much less expensive yet good enough for most people. That's how our company came into existence. For video samples and booking details, please visit our website.

We’re James and Austin, and we’re absolutely obsessed with telling love stories. But not just any love stories, yours. For us, wedding filmmaking isn’t just about capturing the big moments (though we love those too!). It’s about the small, quiet in-betweens, the nervous excitement before you walk down the aisle, the way your partner looks at you when they think no one’s watching, the laughter shared with loved ones. We pour our hearts into every wedding film, blending documentary-style storytelling with a cinematic touch to create something that feels real, raw, and timeless.

James and his team at Next Chapter Film were absolutely incredible. Our wedding video turned out even better than we imagined! James perfectly captured the magic and emotion of our special day. The flow, attention to detail, and production quality were flawless. From the planning process, to the actual day, and even the post-production, working with James was effortless. He was so accommodating with edits and truly brought our vision to life (even though the initial cut was already perfect!). On the day of the wedding, you could tell James really knows what he’s doing. He guided us with ease, making sure every moment was captured beautifully. We were able to relax and just be in the moment, knowing he had everything under control. I highly recommend using Next Chapter Film for your wedding. The memories preserved in the video are priceless, thanks to James and his incredible work!

Capturing authentic love stories through film and photography is my passion. With a deep background in storytelling and years of experience, I focus on preserving the emotions, connections, and unique details that make your wedding truly one-of-a-kind.

My editing process is just as personal—I meticulously weave your moments into a story that reflects your journey, creating memories you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

Billy went above and beyond when it came to capturing the most intimate, special and cherished moments of our wedding day. Admittedly, I wasn’t sure if we really needed a videographer but after strong convincing from my fiancée, we booked Billy, and now it is my most cherished memory of our wedding. I truly believe that our wedding would not have been as successful without him a part of our team. We battled the elements with strong rain and winds and Billy remained calm, professional and easy going throughout which helped to ease our stress. We are still getting compliments to this day about our wedding video. It is beyond what we hoped for and rewatch it constantly. Billy’s creativity and attention to detail is unmatched- you can’t go wrong! We will forever be grateful for Billy and his creative eye for curating the best of our special day.

Kim is not only an extremely talented videographer, but also a great friend you will want there on your wedding day. She really got to know my husband and I before the wedding to better understand us and it really comes through in our videos. Everything from the music to the transitions are unique to us and our wedding. Our videos are something we will truly cherish forever and it is all thanks to Kim. She is kind, organized, fun and so easy going you forget she is filming you all day! Also all her videos have a crying guarantee - both our moms cried within 10 seconds of watching our wedding video and even got some of the less emotional family members to shed a tear. We cannot be more happy with all the work she did and we are blessed to have her as a friend now. Run, don't walk to book Kim! Trust us you won't regret it or we owe you a white claw.

With a background in photography and graphic arts, the transition into film and video production was a natural one for us. We were drawn to wedding video in particular because of the unique opportunities and challenges of telling a couple’s story and capturing their personalities all in the span of one amazing day. There are few events that combine the disciplines of journalism, portraiture, cinematography, storytelling and live events like a wedding does. Oh.. and it also just makes people really happy to relive one of the biggest events of their lives and that’s makes us feel pretty good.

As a professional photographer, Shawn and his team of associates are a pleasure to work with. They are camera aware, don’t overly pose scenes, are extremely considerate about time, and are always very professional at the 20+ weddings and events we’ve worked together on. I can’t recommend this team enough!

We're all about telling epic love stories – no cookie-cutter stuff here. Based in Miami but up for an adventure anywhere, we're not your average wedding videographers. Think of us as your partners in memory-making. We'll be there laughing, dancing, and capturing every crazy, beautiful moment. Our mission is simple: make your love shine. No rules, no boredom. Your love story is one-of-a-kind, and that's how we approach filming it. We're not just about the big scenes; we're into the little details, the stolen glances, the goofy grins – everything that makes your love yours.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so thrilled to be writing this review because we simply cannot speak highly enough of Trey and TreeHouse. We have never worked with video for another event before, so we weren’t sure quote what to look for, but came across Trey’s videos and could immediately tell they were something special. We’re both musicians and also appreciated how well the edits synced with the music as well. We were hoping that our wedding video would have a documentary feel — capturing the beautiful natural location in New York’s Catskill mountains and the feeling of our group of people coming together to celebrate us. It was a laid back wedding and a really amazing group of loved ones and we wanted to see and hear things that wouldn’t be captured in photos and we wouldn’t be able to take in at the time. Trey helped craft a specific package to meet our request and speaking to him it was clear he understood what we were hoping for and built on that vision with his perspective. Wow! Trey delivered!! He brought in a second shooter, Brent, who was so helpful in capturing the day. Not only were they truly amazing people to be around (all of our friends and family were so comfortable and at ease with them), they were exceptionally professional and skilled. They kept us calm and collected in the midst of details and a tight wedding day schedule. Watching the videos was an emotional experience because Trey managed to capture the feeling of the wedding celebration perfectly and get candid and intimate interviews with our friends and family that touched us (and were new to us) months after the wedding. It was clear just how carefully Trey had listened to us in our meetings leading up to the wedding — he heard us and did an amazing job bringing our dreams to life. I really wish I had videos like this capturing other important times in my life. If you are considering whether to get a videographer for your special event or wedding, you absolutely should. If you are considering Treehouse Creative, I cannot recommend it highly enough as people and as professionals! Seriously!

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!!
