Oleg was fabulous to work with. I’m awkward enough behind cameras and he made the whole thing feel so easy and I never felt awkward. The end result was stunning and I can’t stop watching our videos over and over. Not to mention he was so quick!

Shutter and Sound

  • Cinematic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Santa Monica, CA

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!

We flew Caitlin up to our venue in the Bay to do the photos and videography for our wedding and we could not be happier with how well she captured the most perfect moments from our day! At the risk of sounding cheesy, I’ve been dreaming about my wedding since I was young so I was very thorough and meticulous about selecting a videographer. Caitlin was highly recommended and still exceeded my expectations. She was incredibly attentive, professional, and knew just how to make our vision come to life, while also being so sweet and making me feel completely at ease. From the first meeting to well after the wedding, it was such a pleasure to work with her. I cannot say enough positive things about her and how much we love our wedding photos and video! We have gotten so many compliments on our video and photos, which, as anyone knows, are things you’ll cherish for such a long time… So to anyone still deciding on a videographer, Caitlin will make sure you have something amazing whenever you want to look back!

Gui Bittencourt Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Santa Monica, CA

Hi there! I'm Gui Bittencourt, a wedding videographer based in Southern California since 2018. My passion for photography started when I was a kid, playing around with my grandma's old film camera. That early love for capturing moments grew into a career, taking me from Brazil to the vibrant wedding scene here in SoCal. I specialize in multicultural weddings, celebrating love stories from all over the world. I believe every couple’s story is unique, and my goal is to capture your special day in a way that feels real and timeless.

Awarded Best of Zola
Discovery & Initial Communication I learned about Gui’s services through word of mouth. A friend highly recommended him after hiring him for her son’s birthday party. Based on her glowing review, I decided to hire him for my very intimate civil ceremony. My main goal was to have the event beautifully documented so we could share the final video with family and close friends. From the very start, communication with Gui was seamless. He was responsive, efficient, and incredibly patient when addressing my detailed inquiries. One aspect I truly appreciated was his initiative to schedule a pre-event video call. This gave him the opportunity to get to know us, understand our personalities, and discuss our expectations for the shoot. His willingness to listen and incorporate our ideas made the entire process feel collaborative and personal. Planning & Preparation One of the reasons I chose Gui was his ability to include a highlight reel in the video package—something I really wanted. During our meeting, he welcomed my ideas and suggestions for the final video, showing a genuine interest in delivering a product that reflected our vision. Gui’s level of preparation was impressive. He took the time to scout the courthouse and a nearby park beforehand, ensuring we had the best possible locations for our shoot. His preparedness and attention to detail gave me peace of mind leading up to the event. The Day of the Ceremony On the day of our civil ceremony, everything went smoothly. Gui greeted us warmly at the courthouse, immediately setting a positive and reassuring tone. His calm and easygoing demeanor helped ease my nerves—something I truly appreciated amidst the mix of adrenaline and excitement of the day. He captured moments effortlessly, allowing us to be present and enjoy our special day without feeling overly directed or staged. Final Thoughts & Recommendation Overall, I couldn’t be happier with Gui’s work. His professionalism, creativity, and dedication to capturing our special day exceeded my expectations. If you’re looking for a videographer who is not only talented but also personable and well-prepared, I highly recommend Gui. 10/10 – Would definitely hire him again!

Sagebrush Films specializes in candid, natural wedding films. Weddings are awesome. Most wedding videos are corny. Sagebrush Films was created to fix that. We capture your day as it happens naturally, without the gimmicks and cheeseball editing. It should go without saying, but we film weddings for couples of any religion, orientation, color or creed.

Awarded Best of Zola
Most wedding videographers have no creativity. They recycle the same corny edit with a few speeches and a Michael Bublé song overlaid. Joel and his team are different. They delivered something that truly feels unique and fresh. Literally dozens of guest from our wedding have reached out to us and told us that we have the best wedding film they have ever seen. Working with Joel was a pleasure and we could not be happier with the end result! Our video is definitely something that we will cherish and revisit for many years to come. Thanks again, Joel!

My wife and I interviewed Chris to be our videographer for our small wedding. Not only was he very quick to respond to any and all inquiries from us, we felt he quickly understood the assignment in terms of what we wanted from our wedding videos and, most importantly, who we are as a couple. When the day of our wedding came Chris was amazing - he handled everything and we had one less thing to worry about that day! His integration into the events of the day was seamless and as the bride groom we weren't distracted by him so we could focus on ourselves. In addition Chris worked incredibly well with our other photographers and officiant to capture our moments. Fast forward to us receiving the final videos and we were floored! We opted for a few different edits of our video including a documentary-style edit and they were all perfect. This allowed us and our family to relive our special day as if it's happening all over again. The cinematography and technical aspects were amazing and Chris took amazing care with the edits themselves. The end products were perfectly paced, captured every moment, and were visually beautiful to look at. Thank you so much, Chris! You really nailed it for us and happy we went with you for our videographer!

Hi there, my name is Caleb but most people call me Cook. I spent almost 13 years in the southeast filming weddings, events, corporate gigs and commercials. I moved to California in 2012 and pursued a different career. A couple years ago I decided to get back into event videography and started Cook Captures. When shooting events I have a very hands off candid style. I love to capture people naturally having fun, enjoying the day and creating memories. Every event I film is unique and each film ends up with it’s own story and narrative that fit the couple, venue, guests and overall vibe of your wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
Cook and Peter were so great to work with. I appreciated their understanding of how difficult the cost of weddings have gone up and how they were willing to cooperate reasonably throughout the whole process. Cook was able to capture all the shots I was hoping to have captured and his talent is truly evident. My husband and I were hoping to get some footage within the whole gallery of the not so “picture-perfect” to keep memories authentic and to see the natural candid side of our special day. Cook delivered that exactly through his videos. I truly recommend working with Cook if you are looking for someone to capture a meaningful event in your life. He is also so versatile in styles that he truly can provide you exactly what you are looking for or thinking through collaboration.
