Nico did an incredible job with our wedding video. He provided four different films for us: a teaser, a ceremony film, a full-length feature film, and ceremony film. All of them were absolutely amazing, and beyond our expectations. He has a nack of knowing how to capture people in their best light, and making them look like superstars on their big day! My wife and I have watched the films over, and over again!! Additionally, Nico also provided us with all of the raw footage which has been great as well. I cannot recommend Nico enough. You will not be disappointed. read more

Nico was outstanding!! He filmed both my wedding in August and my sister's in January. My sister had an intimate courthouse wedding and I had a 300 person hotel wedding and he captured the beauty in both types of events perfectly. He is professional, kind, and a true artist. He has a way of quietly capturing every special moment and detail with his multiple cameras and angles. I was shocked to see all of the different views in the edited video because I had no idea he even had cameras in those places! It was truly incredible to see him work his magic. The production and editing of the videos were absolutely perfect as well! We can't stop playing them over and over. I would highly recommend Nico to anyone! read more

Nico is my all time favorite videographer! So happy I found him on Yelp! When I was looking up videographers to film my wedding, at first I was concerned about him doing it by himself, but seeing the final products from previous weddings on his website, my now husband and I liked his shots and how natural everything looked. But oh my, the final product of my wedding video had me in tears. It was so beautifully made and intricately placed together, his level of perfection surpasses my eye. I was even looking for the little hiccups that happened here and there and I felt like it was either covered well or just glad that he didn't include it in the final product. He truly did an amazing job, and I couldn't have been happier or made a better decision than choosing him for my special day. So thankful for everything he had done for us. read more

Honestly, the work speaks for itself. Here is the link to our highlight film: https://vimeo.com/195553097/708cb67c4b We got married in San Diego at The Pearl Hotel. Nico/Agape Films are now located in Santa Barbara, but when I booked them, they were still located in San Diego. I don't remember how I found Agape Films exactly, but I will tell you this.. as soon as I watched Lindsay & Chris's film (https://vimeo.com/95452903), I knew Agape Films was who I wanted filming our big day. If they weren't available on the date I requested, I was totally prepared to change the date. I was more locked into them filming the wedding then I was to the actual date. Nico sent our highlight film on my birthday and it was by far, the greatest birthday present a girl could ever ask for. I cried and still cry every single time I watch it, and I watch it a lot. It's hard not to when it's truly that amazing. Nico captured so much love and so many moments I might have missed because of the craziness of the day. I'm grateful that I found Agape Films because they were one of the best decisions we could have made for our big day. Nico and his crew are professional, courteous, punctual, responsive, reasonably priced (especially for the quality) and truly talented artists. You'd be crazy not to book them. Thank You, Nico!! You did an AMAZING job and I am forever grateful to you and your crew! read more

Agápe Films - September 10, 2016 - Videographers Near Me

When we look back on our wedding day several years from now, our memories will be remembered through the eyes of Nico's lenses. We couldn't have entrusted anyone else with such a huge responsibility other than Nico and his team. Nico is well organized, extremely accommodating, professional, talented, and most of all, has a sweet eye for beauty and capturing moments. We worked entirely remotely with Nico being that we had a destination wedding in Cayucos. Nico offered ideas and started conversations that would shape the outcome of his work and he does his due diligence! Even though the first time we met was on our wedding day, Nico was ready and prepared and knew the logistics inside out. He worked seamlessly with our photographers and remembered all the little details that I asked him to shoot! Upon editing the videos, Nico did not disappoint! He made us, our friends, and family all cry tears of joy from the beauty of his video. You can feel from his work that he edited from a well of love and care that speaks to how we felt and what we personally wanted to communicate. We can't stop watching, sharing, and showcasing our videos thanks to Nico and his team!! https://vimeo.com/340952742 read more

What an incredible experience working with Nico on our wedding day! Not only did he provide top quality footage of our wedding, but he was able to capture the happiness and joy from us, as well as of all of the guests. I could not recommend him enough to anyone looking for a wedding videographer. I have already watched the video(s) numerous times, and each time I only am more impressed. Best choice to have him on our team! read more

Great company. Nico filmed our elopement in SB so that our family could watch during the pandemic and he absolutely nailed it. He was easy to communicate with and showed up to our ceremony spot early to find the perfect place to get married. He arrived early and stayed late to get beautiful shots. On top of that his prices were very reasonable. Our family loved the video. We received so many compliments. read more

Amazing work. My family and I were in tears watching our video! I barely even noticed Nico during the wedding and couldn't believe all the footage he captured. He was easy to work and communicate with during the pandemic. When everything is online, you have to be able to trust the person you're working with, even if you don't meet them in person, and he definitely delivered. Highly recommend. read more

Nico was such a pleasure to work with and he does such beautiful work!!! We looked at a whole bunch of videographers, but Nico's sample videos on his website were the only ones that consistently made me tear up with emotion. We knew we had to work with him and are so glad we did. He was communicative leading up to the wedding and during the weekend he was very present and really captured the essence of the moment. I have already watched our videos 384932749837 times and it helps me relive the day over and over again. We would work with Nico again in a heartbeat!! If you are trying to figure out a) whether you want a videographer and b) whether it should be Nico, the answers to those questions are: a) yes and b) yes. You won't regret it. And lastly I will just add that one unique thing about Nico is that he really captures the emotion of the day, as opposed to creating a video that just looks cool or feels like an advertisement. They feel personal and meaningful, and we'll treasure them forever! read more

Nico did an amazing job filing our wedding. He was super professional and the end result was stunning. Amazing views, drone shots, and the editing was perfect. Captured the essential and important moments of the day. We were thrilled with our final video. read more

Wonderful videographer!! Our final wedding video turned out AMAZING, and Nico was very professional and easy to work with! He was timely and very on top of everything. Would highly recommend! read more

My husband and I used Agape Films for our wedding in Santa Barbara and are beyond happy with the final results. We were originally recommended through a mutual friend and I'm so glad that we ended up choosing Agape over someone else. Their pricing is very competitive and we ended up with such a great product that we will cherish for years to come. On the wedding day itself the two videographers were very professional and easy to work with, they got all the sweet moments but weren't in your face about it which was appreciated. read more

I must say that Nico of Agape Films was a great pleasure to work with! He was very welcoming of working with a same sex couple and was extremely professional. He was receptive to our ideas and just executed our wedding film so flawlessly. He captured our wedding day and highlighted the most tender moments of the day seamlessly. The filming and editing of our wedding film was documented in such a cinematic way that we felt like celebrities. Our wedding video is so good that our entire family has watched it a million times with us. We are so happy we found Nico and Agape. We will definitely be using Nico and Agape again for other special events. Thanks Nico! read more

Nico was great to work with and captured our wedding beautifully. He even worked with us to get the video exactly how we wanted it, adding certain parts that were left off at first that we did not clearly let him know were important to us. We barely noticed him at the wedding, but he somehow captured it all! Highly recommend him. read more

From our first meeting to the wedding day to viewing our highlight reel to receiving our wedding footage, we could not be happier with Nico's work. One of the best decisions for our wedding!! Nico dealt with inclement weather on our wedding day just fine and his two cameras caught all the highlights of the day. I honestly feel like I blanked out my wedding day and the footage helped piece the crazy wonderful moments together. I loved that Nico was also a cinematographer because I could not have edited our highlight reel like he had. We were on the fence about having a videographer because our budget was inflated enough but it didn't even feel like a splurge after discussing Nico's reasonable rates - he's worth every penny!! read more

Nico provided videography services for our wedding day and the video was absolutely stunning! Nico is incredibly talented and he captured our special day beautifully. Everything from the style in which he filmed our wedding to the editing of the film was flawless, creative and exactly what we were looking for. I can't recommend him enough! Thank you so much for making our day so memorable. read more

Nico and Blair knocked our video out of the park. They provided us with a five star package at an affordable rate- can't ask for anything more! My husband and I originally thought that we were not going to do a wedding video, but with 4 weeks until wedding, we both decided we had to capture the best day of our lives. We found Nico and Blair on the web, met them and and they worked to accommodate us on such late notice. Post wedding they produced a wonderful highlight film in just a couple weeks. The highlight film was amazing. Two weeks after that they released a 30 minute, documentary style cut that captured everything from from the prep, to ceremony, speeches and of course the dance floor! It gets even better bc they also are giving us all of the raw footage, so we can watch every moment! They are new on the scene, but they produced an amazing wedding package! Thank you Nico and Blair. You were awesome to work with and made our wedding extra special! read more

Nico is the best! Easy to work with and captured our Santa Barbara ceremony perfectly. Thanks Nico!

THANK YOU, Nico! Nico was exceptional to work with! He provided top notch customer service from the initial point of contract all the way through our experience together. His work is FANTASTIC and we really felt like we got a great deal out of his work and the quality video that he produced. He truly captured every detail from our special day. THANK YOU NICO!!!! We are so thankful for you! read more

I used Nico for our wedding in September of 2015 and only got the teaser video. My wife loved the video so much that I contacted him this year for our 2 year anniversary to make a longer version of our wedding video. Nico created an amazing video that gives us a bit of everything and exactly what I wanted. He was quick with his response, still had our videos footage and provided me with options of what he could complete. If you are on the fence for the signature film, I highly recommend going all in and getting the best package. You will thank yourself later down the line, when you have something that truly captures your special day. read more

Nico is a top notch videographer. Our photographer suggested we check out his website and after the films we watched brought tears to our eyes, we booked him right away for our wedding in Santa Barbara. He has several options to match any budget and is very acommodating. We decided to have him record content at the hotel while we were getting ready, at the ceremony (courthouse gardens), at the beach afterwards, and our reception. He was fabulous to work with; so easy going, so polite, so competent, non-intrusive and flexible. What a pleasure. His artistic ability is also wonderful. The 25 minute feature film he prepared is outstanding. Nico was very accommodating to our requests/suggestions regarding what to include in the finished product. He listened well to our ideas and respected our thoughts. We felt very blessed to have him as our videographer. The quality of his work is excellent and we now have a film that captured our day perfectly. Our feature film is a treasure we have already viewed several times and plan to share with friends and family that could not be there. read more

Agape Films & Nico were awesome! Nico made it super easy, as he is located in Santa Barbara (where my wedding took place) and I am in Northern California. His pricing is reasonable for the amount of work that will go into your videos. I can't tell you how many times I have watched my own, I am so in love with it. Other people who did not attend said they even cried watching! Nico was not only able to capture our magical day but the all of the love we shared with friends & family. This was the best decision we made. Thank you, Agape Films for letting me relieve our moment over and over again! read more

I want to thank agape films for their creativity! My video was a hit! Everyone in my family can't stop talking about how special the video came out! They are the best to work with! I am so grateful I met them! read more

When my husband and I think back to our wedding day we both agree that it was a whole lot of fun and relaxing and filled with goofiness and love. The video that Nico put together embodies all of it. He just simply "gets it". Nico and Kevin captured the day perfectly while remaining very obscure and unobtrusive. I actually referred to them often as our "video ninjas". They were stealthy, allowing us and our guests to be ourselves and the video shows that authenticity. The artistic elements of his video style were what drew me to pick Agape Films from other vendors and I am beyond satisfied with the final product. I cannot recommend Agape Films enough to capture such a momentous event as your wedding day. Find a way to make it happen, even if you don't think you have the budget for it. It is so worth it. read more

We absolutely LOVED our wedding film by agape films! Nico did such an amazing job at capturing the natural moments throughout our entire wedding day, which was exactly what I had hoped for, and something my husband and I (and our families) will treasure. When I was researching videographers, Nico was super responsive, professional and took the time to thoroughly answer all of my questions (and there were a lot!) -- something every bride can appreciate. I also liked how calm and easygoing he was on my wedding day...it made the entire experience that much more enjoyable! read more

Nico & Blair did an amazing job capturing our special day. Our highlight film turned out absolutely beautiful. They are easy to work with and very prompt with their communication. After looking at their work, I knew right there and then that I wanted them to be our wedding videographer. They were able to capture every single moment during the ceremony & reception. I will definitely recommend them to all my friends and family. Thank you again, Agape Films! read more

Nico was so great! We met Nico and knew right away we hit gold. I watched almost all of the videos on his website Agapefilms.net and cried on every one. It really does capture all the love on your perfect wedding day. We did the Mannequin Challenge at our wedding and Nico Captured such a fun and epic scene. I cant wait to see our final film and raw footage. He was very professional and talented. https://vimeo.com/191313782 read more

Agape Films was amazing to work with. As a person who loves to watch wedding videos, I knew I wanted a company that had smooth transitions, was easy to work and of course - produced videos that I felt truly captured the feelings of the wedding. I'm happy to say, that was exactly what it was like working with Nico. Nico and his second videographer were easy to work with, made my wedding party feel comfortable - you barely knew they were there and were flexible when I changed my mind from wanting a 3-minute highlight video to a 10-minute video (I'm now contemplating ordering the ceremony video after seeing the raw footage). Nico made editing the video for a few minor tweaks easy, the end result is one of the best wedding videos I've ever seen. I think it captured the feelings of love and family as well as all the details I had been working on for my 10-month engagement. I truly loved what Nico did and have recommended him to a friend who's getting married in Santa Barabara in August 2017. read more

Nico and Agape Films is as good as it gets. He was hands down my best vendor for my daughters wedding. Not one problem arose with his services. I highly recommend him I just want to say Thank You!! You are amazing! You captured the day beautifully, a true talent you have. The movie was so emotional all over again! I'm am so thrilled and thankful that we used you. We are also enjoying the raw footage!!! Thanks again, Julie Myers read more

Nico was amazing! The videos he produced were beautiful and he exceeded our expectations! He was so easy to work with, he listened to what we wanted, and everything was perfect. He worked well with our photographers and the venue staff ( SB Zoo) so that everything ran smoothly and he got all the shots he needed to. Couldn't have been happier. read more

We were so impressed with Nico and the talented work he did! At every step of the process, he was thoughtful, professional, and listened with care to meet what we wanted. We initially didn't know if we even wanted the production of having video coverage, but Nico was so low-key and considerate of our moments and space that it didn't at all interfere with the intimacy of the day. He worked seamlessly with our photographer, even though they had just met. And we felt totally comfortable with him, even though we had just met in person that day too. Nico is so skilled at capturing the subtlety of moments and has a great eye for how they combine together to tell a story. We have such a beautiful final product and memory to have and share and got tons of compliments from our friends and family on it. We highly, highly recommend him and couldn't have asked for a better videographer to capture our most special moments. read more

Agape films is a wonderful choice for videographer. Nico and Blair traveled from San Diego to Santa Barbara for our wedding. My husband and I were planning a destination wedding, so we didn't have an opportunity to meet with either before the wedding and communicated solely via email and phone. On the day of the wedding, they were on time and prepared. They were very accommodating to including additional moments that we thought were important into the film.They listen carefully to our requests and we now have a beautiful feature film. To top it of, their price cannot be beat. read more

I don't normally write reviews, but after the great experience my wife and I had with Nico I thought it would be rude not to! We really weren't sure what specifically we wanted out of a wedding video, we just knew we wanted something to help us remember the day by. What Nico produced for us was better than anything we could have expected. The man really is a top notch talent who surely won't be making wedding videos forever, so if you're lucky enough to be able to book him for your event/project, I definitely suggest you do so! read more

It's been nearly a year since my husband and I got married in Santa Barbara and I am so glad we went with Nico to do our wedding films. He was a true pleasure to work with and really captured the most special, intimate moments of our wedding - not just the most obvious ones (for example, he captured the moment my college friends and my mom ran towards each other after not having seen each other for years. I wasn't there for that but it meant so much to me that he captured it). He also used a drone to capture shots of our wedding venue and us walking on the beach - not something I would have necessarily thought to have done but I"m glad he brought it along, since it helps us remember how gorgeous that day was and how lucky we were. You can't go wrong with Nico - he's kind, super talented, and thoughtful. If we ever need video/film for another event I would definitely reach out to him again! read more
