I watched so many wedding videos from multiple videographers and just fell in love with the style of Baby Blue Film. They were extremely professional and very easy to work with. We got married in May 2022 in Sonoma and had Ed as our videographer. He was great and we barely even noticed him. Our video turned out amazing and we've watched it so many times! They were able to capture the entire day and all the emotions perfectly. Thank you Wilson & team!

We got to see so many things we weren't able to experience on our wedding day, so if you're debating a videographer or not - go with Baby Blue! From the first time I watched their videos, I knew that they had cinematic vision and a chronological flow that made more sense to me than any other wedding videos I'd seen. Silvana is super responsive and helpful on the contracting / scheduling side of things. When I first talked to Wilson, I knew his positive energy and work ethic would shine through in our video. On our wedding day, Wilson and Woo were so funny and cool to hang out with, took a ton of great footage, and captured the amazing dance, family, and drone shots I dreamed of. We got the first draft of our video and it was almost perfect. We asked for a couple of edits and Wilson quickly implemented within a week. We couldn't be happier with the final result. Thank you Wilson, Woo, Silvana, and the rest of the Baby Blue team!

My husband and I wanted a bit of a different vibe than the usual, traditional wedding. We wanted a dark, romantic aesthetic, but with a fun, chill vibe. Franz, Nick, and the team absolutely nailed the aesthetic and energy we were going for. They also made the process so easy, it was like working with friends. Every aspect, the photos, the videos, sneak peaks, previews... are incredible. We still hear about the amazing cinematography and moments captured from family and friends.

They captured the dreamiest footage and created such beautiful, heartfelt videos that truly reflected the couple and the atmosphere of the day.

They made Moriah and Jun feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, which made all the difference in capturing those genuine moments. I'd gladly work with them again in a heartbeat! xx, Koral & Ko.

When you want someone to photograph this once in a lifetime moment, you know you need the expertise of someone like Joseph, who has photographed hundreds of proposals himself.

Do not hire Blue Lotus Films for your filming needs!!…read more I hired Blue Lotus Films to make a professionally edited film of a live performance I created. The quality of the film they created was beyond unprofessional. Sarah, the lead of this company, even admitted to me in emails that some of the footage from the videographers she subcontracted was below professional standards. To name a few issues with the video: -whole parts of songs are cut off -bows and speech at the end are missing -there is shaky footage throughout whole video where it jumps off the stage and into audience, audience's heads cutting off what's happening on stage (one of the videographers was videoing "hand-held" instead of on a steady tripod) -there are misaligned end credits with incorrect titles (e.g. "production" instead of "cast) -there are black spots in the video where it goes blank -the sound file was misaligned with video in certain parts -different color/lighting from the 2 cameras that were being used (one is dull and one is bright) -there are missing key parts of the show that I requested ahead of time to capture (both on the phone and in writing) - because of this lack of following direction, there was only 1 camera shooting for about a third of the show. -corrupted files which meant that end of show was completely cut off. After all this, I requested a refund, as the footage was completely unusable, and Sarah refused. Terrible business ethics. If you want a professional video and to work with someone ethical, find another company.

We truly cannot say enough incredible things about Darren with Reel Eyes Media. He was our…read morevideographer for our wedding in San Francisco, and honestly, I wish I could hire him for every major highlight in our lives moving forward. Originally, Darren had certain package requirements based on the expectation that we were planning a full wedding celebration. Even when our plans were still in flux, he consistently followed up in the most professional and thoughtful way. His emails always seemed to arrive at the perfect time...never pushy, never overwhelming- just gently letting us know he was there and available. It felt like he was patiently waiting in the wings, supporting us before we even officially booked. When we ultimately decided to elope, Darren didn't hesitate. He completely customized a package just for us, making it feel just as meaningful and intentional as a large wedding day. That flexibility alone meant the world. What truly sets Darren apart is his artistry and collaboration. He worked seamlessly with our photographer and we later learned that having a videographer and photographer move in sync like that is actually rare. There was zero ego, zero friction...just pure teamwork and creativity. The final video? Absolutely breathtaking. He under-promised and wildly over-delivered. I sent him countless text messages while planning (likely in a flurry of bridal emotions), and he handled me with so much patience and grace. The end result was the most beautiful, tear-jerking film that we proudly played at our wedding reception. There wasn't a dry eye in the room. Hiring Darren was, without question, one of the best decisions we made throughout the entire process. If you are even considering booking him- THIS IS YOUR SIGN. Hire Darren for anything you need captured. You will be endlessly grateful that you did.

His calm presence, kindness, and passion were felt every step of the way. We are beyond happy and so thankful to have had him as part of one of the most important days of our lives. We would recommend him without hesitation

But after seeing Matter Video's and chatting with Dan, we completely changed our minds, and we are so glad we did. Working with Dan was a joy, and he was highly professional and very experienced. He worked seamlessly with our photographer -- so well that we kept forgetting that they weren't part of the same team! His wedding videos are able to capture the raw, emotional highs of a wedding without feeling cheesy or overdone. He really portrays the beauty and happiness that is present throughout the wedding. He captured so many details and moments that we didn't get photos of. We recommend him even more if you are having your wedding at Nestldown, as he clearly knew how to navigate all the best shots and lighting and timing throughout Nestldown.  He was friendly, easy to work with, clear in his directions, and also got us our sneak peek video within 24 hours of the end of the wedding. We loved our sneak peek so much that we opted for the longer video package! Thank you for the best keepsake! -Nickie & Jonathan, Nestldown June 2025

We saw Augustus' ad on Craigslist for portraits. Based on positive Yelp reviews, we gave him a try…read moresince his portfolio had a real professional's refinement in lighting and composition. When we arrived at his studio, the initial impression was less than positive. It was a ramshackled century-old house in a flag shaped lot off of Filbert. After working our way up the narrow staircase, we entered a rather tight studio space, no more than about 10-foot square. However, we were quickly put at ease by Augustus and the satisfyingly clean room. Even though we tripped over each other to maneuver around the tiny space, we felt like we were really working collaboratively in the composition. Despite the limitations of the space, Augustus managed an exquisite level of control on the lighting. He worked tirelessly to ensure that every shot had exactly the right light and composition, even corralling the wayward strand of hair between shots. Within an hour, we had dozens of flattering individual and joint photos. We hadn't seen ourselves look this good since our wedding photos, which had cost 20-times more. After the shoot, Augustus lightly post-processed our photos with his Photoshop setup for a nearly imperceptible but better result. He showed us how we could post-process the photos ourselves and even gave us the original RAW files, which some other photogs won't do, including our aforementioned wedding photographer. Overall, it was an amazing value for $49 and I hope he continues to offer this great deal to other Yelpers. We now have great photos that will be more than useful for our marketing collateral -- they will be personally treasured.
