Oh my goodness. If you are wedding planning and hunting for vendors, stop here. Quit scrolling. Do not pass go. Stockham Media is the right choice for you. You only get married once, hopefully, and you want your big day to be epically captured. Dillan and his team did exactly that for us. Our package included a "Love Story" video before the big day. We got together with Dillan in Balboa Park and spent the afternoon filming and getting to know each other. I cannot stress this enough, getting this face time in beforehand, and getting to meet Dillan and see what a lovely person is, made us feel so at ease on our wedding day. By the time Dillan and his team arrived we already felt so comfortable and cared for, that it felt like welcoming another guest to the celebration, instead of feeling unsure of how to act around a camera. Plus, the gorgeous sweeping drone coverage they captured at our ceremony site seriously feels like something from a movie. We received our wedding highlight video this week and my new husband and I can't stop watching it. We have cried like 75 times, in the nicest way possible. Stockham Media took our day and turned it into a cohesive, shareable story that we can now treasure and revisit for years to come. We were so impressed with their warmth and professionalism, and can't recommend them enough. Happy planning! read more

Dillan was a fantastic videographer for our wedding day in October of 2022. Very nice guy and super professional in the prep and consulting process -he outlined exactly what his process was and what our deliverables would be in very clear language. In addition to all of the raw footage (ceremony, speeches, etc.), Dillan also produces a short 4-7min Wedding Day video to encapsulate the big day and enable us to rewatch some of the highlight moments again and again. He even incorporated our vows into the intro of the video, which gave the whole thing an ethereal sense of sentimentality before diving into the more "party vibe" of the second half of the video... it's a really cool end product to have, and we even bought a digital coffee table book to show it off the right way. Dillan even allowed us to choose the music for that video, which made us feel like we were part of the creative process as well, and certainly made the video feel more like "OURS" than if he had not brought us into the loop like he did. Dillan even seemed to have a good time on the day of... he was obviously there to do a job but it certainly felt nice to feel like he was enjoying being part of the day, and that in turn helped everybody there to be at their most natural and comfortable in the wedding day footage. Would certainly recommend Dillan, two thumbs up! read more

We were on a tight budget for our wedding and video was one of the things we were considering cutting, but I am so glad we didn't and SO GLAD we hired Stockham Media! They are seriously amazing! From working with me to create a package that worked in my budget to patiently helping me finalize my day-of timeline, to just doing an absolutely incredible job filming on the wedding day, we were so impressed. The first time I saw our wedding highlight video, I was moved to tears seeing all of the special moments and re-living the emotion of the day. The team at Stockham are true artists who care about the beauty of every shot and the way the story comes together. They are also just awesome people who were so much fun to be around on the wedding day and helped to keep us smiling and laughing instead of stressing over the little details. I can't speak highly enough about the quality of Stockham's service from start to finish. And I mean all the way down to the final touch of the delivery of our hard drive of footage which arrived in a beautiful, personalized wooden box and was accompanied by this amazing Papermotion album that plays our highlight video. What an incredible team who doesn't overlook a single detail! My best advice for all the brides out there planning: don't skip video! And if you are getting married in Southern California, book Stockham Media right now! You will not regret it. Thank you Stockham for giving us the such a special way to remember our wedding day for years to come. read more

Stockham Media - Video/Film Production Near Me

So glad we found Stockham Media! From the very beginning, Brandon was a pleasure to deal with - very professional, communicative over e-mails and extremely detail oriented. We opted out of the love story film, but Brandon accommodated engagement photos in lieu of the film. Not only that, he did his research to find places that fit my vision, and we took our engagement photos last weekend at the Santa Rosa Plateau. We received the photos back today (exactly 1 week later as promised!) and we are beyond thrilled with how they turned out! It was risky as this was a first time shooting there for them, but our two photographers, Gavin & Dillion, made magic happen! Best part, our lil shih-tzu pup came along and also had a blast. Dillion was part assistant/part puppy-sitter throughout the shoot as well! :D Adam & I look forward to working with you again in August at our wedding!! read more

See all

Dillan and Brandon are an amazing dream team to work with. We found Stockham at a bridal show and were immediately captivated by the footage they were showing. They are all so laid back and relaxed that it's very welcoming. You can see the passion when they talk about their work. Prices were competitive, feedback responses were almost always immediate. Any time there were questions, Brandon would go out of his way to clarify. One thing I liked the most was that they never treated us as customers, but as friends. They never tried to oversell but gave us a variety of options. I looked forward to meeting with them and discussing details; I'm almost sad the whole process is over. They shot a beautiful love story for my husband and me. I guess it helps that we had similar senses of humor. :P Don't believe me? Check out their website for other videos they've done. Once we saw those, we couldn't picture going with anyone else. Day of wedding, Dillan and his crew were already on site filming details of the wedding. I was mentally all over the place, but they were very patient with me. (Apologies, I didn't really spend much time talking with the other two shooters.) They handled my 180 emotional flips really well. BTW, Dillan's glide cam is amazing and should be reason enough to go with them. (: Basically, these guys went above and beyond to make our wedding day and the planning leading up to it a better experience. I am so glad that we found them and decided to go with them. Words cannot express the gratitude my husband and I have for them, but this will suffice. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who asks. (I already have!) read more

Stockham Media was awesome to work with! One of the things I loved most was that they include what's called a love story video with their wedding videography package. We saw it for the first time at our reception and it was so memorable, I couldn't wait to see the wedding highlight video. We got it yesterday and it's even better than I was expecting. Brandon and his guys are super fun to work with and are extremely talented at what they do! I'm so glad we chose them to film our special day! read more

Dylan and the team did such a great job capturing all of our special moments. I loved my wedding video and it made me cry all over again. I must have shared the video with just about everyone I knew. My wedding photos came out so pretty and I felt beautiful in all the pictures. They knew what they were doing and it was evident in there work. Also the price was really fair and competitive. If your looking for a videographer and photographer definitely look into vetting these guys! read more

Stockham Video delivers high quality, artistic, and beautiful videos! It took us awhile to find just what we were looking for in a videography company and we were truly impressed with our final wedding video. They truly captured the emotion of our special day and we cannot thank Dillan and Brandon enough for all their hard work. read more

Beautiful wedding photos and video at a crazy reasonable price!!! Stockham Media is everything you need. I stumbled across Stockham on weddingwire while planning my wedding and they are the best wedding decision I made. They use something called cinephotography, its complicated but they basically shoot video and photo at the same time. Its much more reasonably priced than photo and video separately and the product is EVERYTHING!!!!!! Let me start at the beginning. Brandon, who is the manager/coordinator of sorts, is A PLEASURE. He was so professional and delightful to coordinate our experience with. He was accomodating, polite, and always prompt in responding to my many emails. I never waited more than a few hours for a response from him. He eased all of my fears about my unfamiliarity with cinephoto and tolerated my many questions to try to be clear about the product I was getting. We also hired them for our engagement photo shoot. The company is based in San Diego, but they were very accommodating in shooting us in our home in Long Beach. The owner, Dillan, shot us for our engagement, and I must say that we felt an immediate connection to him! He is LOVELY! He has a great energy and spirit and is really amazing at what he does. I must say I left that shoot feeling not only great about the experience but genuinely wanting to be friends with Dillan! Furthermore, we received our all of our photo prints so quickly! We were elated! Stockham also shoots something called a Love Story, which is video footage where you get to share on camera your personal relationship story through a variety of questions and prompts. We shot ours at our wedding venue, and that was a blast as well. We were able to play it at our wedding reception and it was beautiful to relive that shoot. Last, our wedding day!!! We had a crew of at least 5 or 6 from Stockham shooting me and my husband as we got ready at our respeective locations and then at our venue. They were fun, relaxed and professional at the same time and put me at ease! Now that I've received all my footage, I can see that they were everywhere, catching all the details that day. Which is amazing because I felt like they were never in the way! Another special moment occurred when the owner Dillan who had been shooting my husband and the groomsman most of the day stopped by my bridal suite just to say hello and check in. This meant a lot to me as I had developed a great connection with him over the prior year shooting engagement and love story footage, and seeing his face before the wedding calmed me immensely. Finally, we were over the moon at the finished product! We received almost an insane amount of footage, all of it on a hard copy drive. We received ALL of our raw footage including our entire ceremony, and love story, highlight films and over a thousand beautiful photos. I've gone on too long, but I could go on longer. Stockham was by far, my favorite vendor to work with! Every bride should have them in her life! You wont regret it! read more

Stockham Media - Video/Film Production Near Me

Dillan was awesome! My wife and I both really wanted a wedding videographer for our wedding and we were actually referred to Dillan by a mutual friend whose wedding he had just recently shot also. After getting in touch with him, we found his pricing was competitive and the best that we found from bridal shows, online, etc. On our wedding day, he showed up on time and was ready to shoot even thought it basically rained almost the entire day. Thankfully, I had bought some umbrellas at Target that morning and those kind of helped! My wife and I were surprised and very excited once we were back from our honeymoon to find that Dillan had made a quick and awesome 1 minute trailer from our wedding while we waited for our main highlight video! Our highlight video finally arrived via a USB the other day and my wife and I spent almost 3 hours reliving our awesome wedding... all said and done, we were both very thankful and happy that we booked Dillan! read more

I seriously cannot say enough good things about working with Stockham Media! They made us feel extremely comfortable on our wedding day and were cheering us on the entire time. Fast forward to when we received our wedding video - WOW. So many tears of joy reliving this incredible day, I don't think I'll ever get tired of watching it! They so perfectly captured all of the emotions of our special day and the little details we put into it. I couldn't help but share the video with pretty much everyone I know and they were blown away! This team works so hard and are so amazing at what they do. We can't thank them enough for being so great! read more

Stockham Media filmed my wedding for me in August 2018. Love, love, love my highlight film!!! It brought happy tears to my eyes! It was perfect. Now I can watch it again & again for years to come. Stockham Media was easy to work with & whenever I had a question or tried to reach them they were easy to get a hold of & contacted me back right away. I received a highlight film, raw footage & a ceremony video for a reasonable price. I was nervous when I first booked because I'm not from the San Diego area & didn't make any trips prior to my wedding to meet with anyone but Stockham Media did not disappoint. Thank You Stockham Media!! P.S. It took me a little while to write my review because I just now watched the hard drive footage. My baby got a hold of the cute wooden box that the raw footage & ceremony video arrived in & she lost the cord. Finally found it! read more

We hired Dillan for our wedding back in 2015 and we were totally blown away with the final product! His team caught everything so perfectly and creatively. My husband and I are so thankful we decided to do a video with Stockham Media. We now have this unbelievable memory that will always take us back to our special day. Thank you!!! read more

We are beyond pleased with the work Stockham Media did for our wedding day! They were prompt, accommodating and completely professional the day of the event. They worked well with our photography (who they didn't previously know) and captured incredible footage without being a distraction. We were shocked how quickly they sent us the highlight film and were ecstatic to get to view it while we were still on our honeymoon. The video and editing quality is beyond what we expected and we could not be more pleased! We highly debated hiring a videographer for our wedding and are so incredibly happy we did! read more

The team at Stockham Media deserve 10 stars. We booked them for our wedding as a referral from our photographer and they are incredible. Generally speaking, having a videographer for your wedding/event is perfect because even the best of photos cannot totally capture the experience of your wedding. Plus, we had many guests who were unable to attend and we wanted them tot feel like they were there. Everyone we worked with at Stockham (including the founder, Dylan Stockham) truly has a talent and these folks are all top notch. If they're available for your special day...book them right away! read more

Choosing Stockham Media made our wedding extra special. From our first encounter at a bridal show, they were attentive and genuinely caring. This made them stand out and after we had our first consultation, we knew we made a great decision. They are not only professional but overall great guys who take their craft very serious. Included in our price were 2 edited videos, all raw footage and full-length footage of toasts/ceremony/speeches, 8 hours of service, 2 videographers and a shooting assistant. They were our favorite vendor to work with and our wedding wouldn't have been the same without them. The videography they provided was top-notch due to them paying attention to detail, shooting in 4k and utilizing drones. You can even utilize their footage to screenshot pictures. We also had a "Love Story" made that was a beautiful added touch to play during our reception that highlighted our relationship and engagement. They even added a customized wooden box with our names and the date of our wedding to deliver all of the video footage to us. You will not regret hiring Stockham Media for any special event. We look forward to working with them again in the future. Please feel free to review our video below.https://vimeo.com/272877828 read more

We hired Stockham Media due to a last minute change of heart for a videographer. Initially, we were going to do without, but we were glad we changed our minds! We had hired another photographer well before meeting Brandon and Dillan. We later learned that the other photographer's contract was very limited with time even though we had explained what we expected. So we ended up extending our contract with Stockham Media to cover both photography (for the end of our wedding) and videography for the entire day. We are still so glad that we did! The quality of photos, their attention to details, their concern with making sure they got great shots by making sure the background was clear of people was amazing. Honestly, I regret not having met them prior to our original photographer because their photos, video, content and demeanor during the day of the wedding and during the love story was very pleasing, relaxing and professional. Dillan, Ben, Brandon and Tyler actually made me laugh and calmed my nerves the morning of the wedding after the other photographer had stressed me out. My husband and I have spoken about this and if we could change one thing on our big day... it would be making them our primary photographer and videographers. I cannot say enough good things about them. They don't know it yet, and I don't know if they provide this service, but we will be reaching out to them soon to see if they photograph newborns when our baby is born, if not, then we are definitely checking in with them before we hire anyone else. When we look back at our wedding day and all the different vendors we used Stockham Media is at the top of our list with their excellent service. read more

These guys made 2 people who aren't comfortable in front of a camera, so comfortable. We didn't even know they were there, but when we did interact with them we were so incredibly comfortable. From the moment we met with them to interview them, we knew they were a match. Their pricing is very reasonable for what you get (PS I highly recommend the "love story" ) and the quality is incredible. Everything they did from start to finish was top tier and they we on top of everything. I would recommend, and have, these guys to anyone who was looking, you will not be disappointed. :) read more

Let me start by saying that I honestly feel my husband and I found the best crew. Stockham media did our photography and videography for our engagement, wedding, and trash the dress after the wedding. From the moment my husband met Brandon and Dillon, he knew that was the company to go with. Boy, he sure was right, in this case haha Brandon, Dillon and their crew were very professional and patient, and the communication/relationship they had with each other was absolutely amazing. The day after the wedding all our friends and family kept telling us that the photographers worked so hard on our wedding and that there was no doubt that we were going to be blown away with their work. When we first watched our highlight film, I started shedding tears of joy. It was so touching. My husband and I watched it over and over again because we were completely blown away with all th the details that were captured. The photos were all so beautiful and vibrant, especially the ones taken at the beach. The only sad part after the wedding was that we were not going to be working with stockham media anymore :-( . They were so much fun to work with. We would pick them over and over again :-). Dillon, if you are reading this, thank you so much for all your patience and hard work. Keep that nice smile Brandon, thank you also for all your patience and for going out of your way to fulfilling my desires. Tommy and I always enjoyed chatting with you:) Thanks to the rest of the crew, you all were wonderful:) Everyone else who is reading this: don't waste time trying to find the best of the best photo/ videographer because you have found it-STOCKHAM MEDIA! read more

We were so pleased with our love story and highlight film of our wedding done by Stockham media. They are organized and professional. They were easy to get along with and made us feel so comfortable. We barely even noticed they were there on the day of our wedding but seemed to catch film of everything. We chose their 3-5 minute highlight film and it was PERFECT. I still can't stop watching it. I had such a hard time choosing a videographer because I wanted it to be good quality but not cost an arm and a leg. Stockham is super talented and so fairly priced. read more

If you are looking for a professional wedding videographer, go with Stockham! We will cherish our love story/ ceremony forever.

Including Stockham in our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. We filmed a love story with them which went through how we met and our overall story up to that point and it was a blast to film. At first I thought it was going to be awkward because we haven't spent any time in front of the camera, but they were extremely easy to work with and brought out the best in us. We showed the love story to our guests during our reception and it's safe to say that it was one of the highlights of the entire event. They created a video that completely captured our personality and was the perfect mix of emotion and humor. On the day of the event, the videographers worked seamlessly with our photographer and captured all of the important moments without hindering the atmosphere. If you are considering any sort of videography for your wedding, going with Stockham is the best decision you can make. read more

Brandon and his team are amazing!!! The price they charge is so inexpensive for the quality of the videos and photographs you receive. I was a worried about the quality compared to other vendors prices. I assumed that we would suffer quality for the price. Then I looked up their work and I immediately knew I had nothing to worry about. We used them for my parents 50th wedding anniversary. They are extremely professional while still keeping a relaxed environment. Always with a smile and great attitudes. My parents had 8 kids and they shot each family individually. You can imagine how long that took. We were are talking about party of 33!!! Ranging from my grandmother who is 93 to my little niece who is 4. All sorts of people talking and kids running around at all times, yet they still maintained their composure never once making us feel as it was overwhelming for them. They made all of us feel comfortable and never made us feel bad about asking them to change something. We used them on 3 different occasions and each time they were wonderful. They filmed a "confessional/this is why we love you and thank you" video for our parents as a gift to be shown at their reception. It was beautifully edited and shot. They also did the video/photography for the renewing of vows, reception, and the next day "after party". I would 100% recommend them to all of my family and friends. I will absolutely be using them again for our next special event. read more
