Shore and Wave - Videographers Near Me

We had an excellent experience working with Kaiel and Stephanie as the video team for our wedding. From the start, they were great communicators, easy to work with, and brought such a fun, relaxed energy to the day. They did an incredible job capturing candid moments, and we especially loved their Raw Wedding Videos. If you value nostalgia and want to relive your day in a longer, more natural way (almost like a home video or docu-style film), these are truly amazing. Also, the edited highlight reel was beautifully crafted and perfectly captured the feeling of our day. They helped us feel comfortable and have fun, and the final videos are something we will treasure forever! We recommend them 10/10 :-) read more

Easiest 5-star review! Kaiel & his team went above & beyond for our wedding. They periodically checked in in the months leading up & helped us prepare a workable shot list for our special day. The best part though - their energy on the day. Absolutely invaluable. Even with everything going right, your wedding can feel chaotic and have your minds and hearts racing. S&W helped navigate us around the venue while effortlessly shooting content. They were all smiles, kept the energy at a high level all day, and reminded us to enjoy and soak everything in. The cherry on top was a lengthy list of sneak peek pictures just days after.. followed by an impressive gallery of all the beauty they captured. Can't recommend them enough. read more

Easy to communicate with, great photos, good vibes, pricing was great! Have been telling everyone about Shore and Wave since even before the wedding and happy to have had the team apart of my special day. You won't regret the decision to have them take your photos :) read more

HIRE SHORE AND WAVE HIRE SHORE AND WAVE. From the initial consultation, we were met with really good vibes from Kaiel and Stephanie. They went beyond talking about photography/videography and wanted to get to know a little about us, our relationship, and our vision for the wedding. After speaking with them and looking at some of their work, we knew they'd be a good fit for photo/video. We booked them in March 2021 for our October 2022 wedding, and we did our engagement shoot in September 2021. The engagement shoot photos were warm, dreamy, and the turnaround to receive them was so quick. These photos made for great save the dates/website gallery photos. Another great benefit of working with Kaiel and Stephanie during the engagement shoot is that they make you feel comfortable with photography and doing certain poses (on a regularly basis, my husband and I are awkward af when it comes to photos). They also gave us creativity to do the photoshoots where we wanted, and were open to fun ideas (we did some of our shoot at in ice cream place, because food!). In between the engagement shoot and the wedding, Kaiel and Stephanie were always available to answer questions, add services if needed, and have little hangouts in between to continue to get to know each other and talk about the wedding. Their professionalism, courtesy, and all around great personalities just made it that much more exciting leading up to the big day. We had our wedding on October 15, 2022. Since we had gotten to know Kaiel and Stephanie so well, the day went so smoothly, and it felt like we had them as friends holding it down for us on the photo/video end. They worked so well with all of our vendors, and throughout the event you could see them really working all aspects of the day. I also have to acknowledge that Kaiel is a GREAT hype man. He'll get you laughing/posing, and werking it, haha. We just received our photos/video, and WOW. My expectations were beyond exceeded. The shots are gorgeous, the use of space is spot on, our posed photos look natural, and the overall color tone matched our style and venue perfectly. The highlight video managed to get all the best parts of our vows and all the little candid clips that encapsulated the best parts of the day. I am beyond happy with how everything turned out, and I can't stop showing everyone who asks (and even those who don't lol). Shore and Wave does a fantastic job of capturing the best parts of your day in addition to giving you insight into the moments you might have missed since you're running around being married and stuff. My favorite part of looking through these photos and videos is seeing all my friends and family happy and having a good time. On top of this, while we did walk away with wonderful photos and videos, we also walked away with some good friends. Kaiel and Stephanie are just great people, it's a privilege to know them and work with them. I can't recommend Shore and Wave enough! read more

We used Shore & Wave for our photo & video for our wedding, and they were amazing! From our engagement shoot, to our wedding, Kaiel and Stephanie made us feel so comfortable being in front of the camera. Aside from being great creatives, Kaiel and Stephanie are just awesome humans and super communicative and accommodating. Their energy brought out the best of us, and in return, we got photos and videos that we'll remember for our entire lives. Highly recommend if you're looking for a photographer and videographer for your big day! read more

I used Shore & Wave for my wedding videography after I saw their photography and videography in my best friend's wedding. Highly recommend! I had a great experience with them as well. I had their second shooter doing the filming and Kaiel (owner) doing the editing and highlight video. I trusted them both completely and the product met my expectations (which, as a bride, were naturally high expectations.) I was not able to add the video to this review, but here are screenshots from it. They totally captured every important moment perfectly. I have already watched my video back dozens of times. I specifically enjoyed everyone's kindness, empathy, flexibility, and genuine enthusiasm for my wedding. Other vendors seemed "burnt out" and not really caring about my big day, and it was a kill joy. I LOVED how Kaiel got excited for us. It made the whole experience magical. I can't believe I almost skipped paying for videography. In hindsight, it is a MUST. Plus, you get the raw footage of the entire event. So amazing. Thank you, Shore & Wave. read more

Kaiel was amazing from the start!! We had an initial phone call where he really wanted to get to know me and my husband and to understand our needs. Once wedding day approached he was SO easy to work with! He got everyone comfortable and laughing and did an amazing job at capturing all the moments without us noticing too much that he was even there. We received our video and the raw footage and I couldn't have asked for more!! He captured our personalities and the details of our wedding beautifully. I highly recommend Shore and Wave! Thank you thank you! read more

I asked Cali Viewfinders to shoot our engagement photos. What most people don't realize is posing for pictures is awkward, even if it's with your best friend and love of your life. Kaiel made the entire photo session very easy and comfortable. The pictures came out amazing and natural. Because Kaiel is a wedding videographer he offered the service as well. I always had it set in my mind that a wedding video wasn't what I wanted. But after seeing his work on highlight videos, I changed my mind. He was there on our wedding day capturing loads of video time but was never in the way. He was capturing moments for our video and I didn't even realize it. Three days after our wedding he turned around our video. I was shocked at his quick work! And the highlight video is the most cherished thing I have of our wedding. It's beautiful and romantic and tear jerking. Hire Cali Viewfinders!! read more

We won't say anything about the quality of work because I think the portfolio speaks for itself (check out Vimeo account for examples). Kaiel was with us from start to finish, from that initial video call to everything in between and most especially on the day of. He really took the time to get a feel of who we are as individuals and as a couple. He is a true professional who captured the essence of our wedding. Side note- my photographer was stuck in traffic due to freeway closures from wildfires so Kaiel's videography is the only documentation I have of getting ready. Thanks for saving the day :) Lots of love, Melvin & Charity read more

Kaiel was so great and fun to work with! My husband and I thought he was super nice and friendly and made us feel very comfortable. We loved the vibe and energy of our video and enjoyed seeing the raw footage he sent us and reliving our wedding day! Sharing our video with our friends and family was super easy and we received nothing but positive feedback on our wedding video! They all loved how it turned out and we could not be more thankful to have this beautiful memory of our wedding day! I would highly recommend Shore and Wave for your events and would love to be able to work with Kaiel again in the future! read more

I contacted Shore and Wave for my uncle's Celebration of Life event. Although an unusual event for most, it's not unusual in the Pilipino culture to take photos and/or video of the deceased and their family at viewings & funerals. Especially during COVID times, when many family members could not travel for the funeral from the east coast and the Philippines, it was important for my auntie to capture these moments during the Celebration of Life event to share with those family & friends. Sometimes you think you don't need photos at an event like this but when you finally see the videos of your family members you haven't seen in years, it touches your heart. Stephanie arrived early and was gracious to the entire family throughout the event. Stephanie is a very sweet human! She was respectful of all our religious and cultural practices. She captured beautiful moments of the family through the viewing, Catholic Mass, and burial of my uncle. My auntie (you know Pilipina titas) had specific requests of what she wanted captured and Stephanie captured them with no hesitation. We felt blessed to have Stephanie & Kaiel of Shore and Wave provide videography service for our Uncle's viewing and funeral service! Thank you to you both!!! I highly recommend Shore and Wave to capture the beautiful moments of your Pilipino families' Celebration of Life event!!!! I was able to capture some photos on my iPhone of Stephanie during the service and wanted to share how wonderful they are! read more

Kaiel is an impressive videographer!!! He recently shot our elopement in Joshua Tree. He produced an impressive video, provided stellar customer service, offered competitive pricing, was highly professional and an absolute joy to be around. I wish I could give him 10 stars. Not only did I receive an amazingly produced video, I was able to pull over 100 photos from the raw footage/final version. The video stills were far superior to the images received from the photographer in both quality and artistic representation. Hands down he was the perfect addition to our special day. We highly recommend Cali Viewfinders. We look forward to working with him again. We have found our videographer of choice! One of the very best planning decisions we made. Don't hesitate, book him today! read more

Shore and Wave - Videographers Near Me

We used Shore and Wave for my daughters wedding and we are beyond thrilled with how things turned out. Stephanie and Kaiel were easy to work with, professional and I would highly recommend them. Choosing the right photographer and videographer is very important...they set the tone for the day, and guide you through all of the important steps along the way. One of the things I really appreciated about them is that I felt confident that they really knew how to capture the moments. If I could give them 10 stars I would!!! read more

I'm so happy I chose Cali Viewfinders for my sons first birthday video! The owner is so professional and my video came out great! I've been recommending them to everyone and I will absolutely use them again! read more

I'd give this videographer a billion stars, if I could. We booked our elopement in sunny Coronado, and it turned out to be rainy gloomy Coronado - rain's good luck, right?? Thank goodness we booked a quality videographer! Kaiel really saved the day- he was able to work with the little lighting we had, and everything turned out beautiful. My husband and I are both actors, so we wanted something more cinematic and less "camcorder." Kaiel's quality of work is top notch- we couldn't be more pleased. He's also super easy to work with, and his turn around time on getting us the highlight videos was crazy fast. Couldn't recommend him more. read more

Kaiel was my hype man on our wedding, we loved the fun energy he brought and it rubbed on the rest of my vendors! We had originally had our wedding set in May and due to Covid we had to postpone to August hoping it would be a little bit better. With so many last minute changes and typical wedding drama, we were back and forth about keeping August wedding. Kaiel was super understanding and flexible with all that, that's when you know they actually care about the couple and not just $$$. We also just got our highlight video just 2 weeks after and it was soo . Thank you so much Kaiel! You guys def need to book this guy! read more

Kaiel is da man!!!! My husband and I saw Kaiels work through a wedding he had done for a friend, and we were in awe of how amazing his work is. He is just a great person to work with and he brings such an awesome energy! You can tell he loves what he does. My husband and I got married in October and since COVID happened we were not sure what was going to happen, since our venue was still closed. Luckily for us, Kaiel was very understanding of our situation and was helpful and reassuring. We're truly blessed that we found him and are in love with our wedding footage. We highly recommend him to anyone in need of a videographer. Kaiel truly has a great eye for capturing the special moments. read more

Kaiel was a pleasure to work with. He took fantastic footage of our courthouse wedding. He was professional, kind, and accommodating. We are happy with our video and would recommend him to a friend. read more

I'm so grateful that we chose Kaiel as our wedding videographer. While searching for videographers online, through recommendations, social media or wherever, his videos immediately stood out to me. Out of all the videographers we saw, even ones that have done hundreds of weddings, his style and editing was the best we've seen. From the first phone call I could tell he was very nice, professional, and loves what he does. He also has great energy which was so helpful for making me feel comfortable during my wedding. He was so easy to work with throughout the whole process and was always available to talk or video chat with us and work with us with any questions or changes we had. We really appreciate everything he did for us! If I could redo my wedding I would still choose him. Would definitely recommend! read more

We hired Cali Viewfinders from a referral from our wedding coordinator and it was honestly the best decision we made. From the beginning, Kaiel Jackson was easy to work with. On the day of my wedding, his energy was amazing and positive. My wedding court loved him and he worked easily with my photography team even though it was their first day meeting each other. He did our same day edit /so beautifully and effortlessly- it was his first time doing one-but you wouldn't be able to tell it was! We loved it so much and I highly recommend him. He's hardworking and a down to earth person! Please do yourself a favor and book him ASAP. He creates timeless memories that you will want to watch over and over again! read more

We had Kaiel do our videography for our wedding in December 2021 and he was absolutely amazing!! From when we first spoke to him over the phone, through the wedding and after, he has been so attentive, friendly, and easy-going. His work is unique, fun, and detailed- they are truly works of art and we are so grateful we had him to capture all the special moments. Kaiel was such a great time throughout our wedding day and definitely hyped up the group, caught some great moments on video, and kept us at ease all day. It really felt like having a good friend there with us throughout the wedding and we felt so comfortable with him from the very start. read more

Kaiel was super quick with the edits and was able to provide us with the highlight video two weeks after our wedding! We would definitely recommend their service read more

Kaiel captured every moment so I can relive it for the rest of my life. - It's strange how your just wanting to live the best moments of your life and I can see that in a video over and over again. I'm reminded of the times how Kaiel was seamless taking footage, I honestly forgot he was there for so many shots for us acting silly and have a blast. My husband still cries looking at the video footage and knowing my partner is overwhelmed with joy on the happiest day of our lives just by seeing a video says it all. read more

Thanks for capturing our special day Kaiel!! read more

Kaiel was amazing to work with. I stumbled upon his work through Instagram while I was looking for a videographer and immediately loved his style. Everything flowed so seamlessly and he seemed to capture everything so perfectly. My fiancé at the time (now husband) and I had a consultation over the phone with him and we could feel his energy and positivity through. We knew then we HAD to book him. And we did- with NO regrets. We had an engagement shoot a month or so before our wedding which was so much fun. He made everything so easy, natural and comfortable. On our wedding day, he was the ultimate hypeman. He brought so much energy to our wedding, our friends and family loved him. We got our video the other day and it was better than I even imagined.

Kaiel is great! Hard working, listens to what you want, and produces great quality videos of your special day! Would go to anyone else for videography. read more

Kaiel is an AMAZING videographer! You can tell that he really enjoys his work and that he is very passionate about it. Not only that, but he really takes care of his clients, and he is SO chill! My husband and I felt super comfortable around him throughout the entire process - from the initial phone call through our wedding day. I remember arriving to the venue for our first look feeling super nervous and anxious because we were running late. He greeted me as soon as I arrived and instantly made me feel calm as he guided me to our first look. Throughout the day he was cracking jokes, making sure we had a drink when we needed it, willing to help with whatever came up, and he also got along really well with our photographer and other vendors. We initially hired him for our wedding because we LOVE the style of his work, but his positive personality also shines through. Naturally, he captured our wedding very beautifully, and we cannot stop watching our highlight video (which he also got back to us very quickly). Last but not least - he is super organized and communicative. He would check-in regularly months before the wedding, and he also provided us with a questionnaire, so that he fully understood exactly what we wanted him to capture. We're looking forward to referring him to all of our friends and family for their events, and we hope to have him capture more of our life events in the future! read more

Kaiel was so awesome to work with from the start to end. We hired him last minute a few weeks before our wedding because we weren't sure we wanted video. We are so glad we did and it was so worth it seeing the video a week later. He was so fast turning around the final video before we even got back from our honeymoon and it was incredible and amazing quality. He captured all the special moments we wanted and more and put it all together so beautifully. He definitely exceeded our expectations. Not to mention day of he was so much fun and full of energy and worked so well with all of our vendors. We got so many compliments from our guests on the video and glad we can share and rewatch this for years to come. It was one of the best investments we made for our special day I would not hesitate to recommend him to other couples looking to capture their day. read more

Kaiel is hands down the easiest person to work with. He has a clear vision and drive to make sure everything is PERFECTION! I can't truly put into words how talented he is. I've hired him to capture two very important moments and he has done nothing but exceed my expectations. If you're in the market for a videographer who is going to make your day easy, fun, and special...then hire Kaiel. He will produce the most amazing video and make it seem effortlessly. Thank you Kaiel for being such an AMAZING, TALENTED, and PROFESSIONAL business owner. I can't wait to hire you again. read more

We hired Cali Viewfinders as our videographer for our wedding in June 2019! I cannot express how happy we were with them!!! Highly recommend them as your videographer for any event! We came across Cali Viewfinders by searching online and viewing his videos/work products which we loved. My husband and I both looked at various other videgraphers work and we both picked Cali Viewfinders as our #1 choice! First and foremost, from day one, Kaiel (the owner of Cali Viewfinders) was extremely responsive. He is also very kind and patient. I had a lot of questions about our wedding video since I had no idea how it worked. We hopped on a call and he took the time to explain all the details. I still had a lot of questions leading up to the wedding which again, he took the time to answer. He was in a great mood the day of the wedding and took his job seriously. He turned around the video much sooner than we thought he would... literally in less than one month! P.S... I've heard a lot of horror stories about not receiving videos timely.. and we most definitely did not have that problem! They also took drone footage of our venue which was really neat. Again, Kaiel was very patient with me/us in editing the video and we've already watched it numerous times. We absolutely love the video... everything from the quality.... the shots he included.. the timing of every clip in the video.. everything is what we wanted. Again, highly recommend hiring Cali Viewfinders as our videographer!!!! They exceeded our expectations with a video we can't wait to share with our kids and grandchildren! read more

Cali Viewfinders is amazing! We had them shoot our wedding on Coronado beach and Wow! Kaiel does absolutely beautiful work. The videography, editing and color are all breathtaking. Very professional, respectful and with a fast turnaround too! I highly recommend Cali Viewfinders! read more
