Coelho Video Productions both understood and exceeded our expectations while staying inside the budget we had discussed. Similar video package quotes were substantially higher priced and offered much less in comparison to CVP. Every interaction with Kevin and his staff was a breeze from start to finish. He provided excellent coverage of our big day that he transformed into a flawless final product. We are beyond happy with our experience with Coelho Video Productions and would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for an excellent video production.

From the going over the contact and sending us a video of his previous wedding coverage to the day we got our video in hand, Kevin was always there and provided great service. When it came the day of the wedding, everything went well, Kevin was on time to start capturing my husband and his groomsmen get ready and got to my house just in time to start capturing starting to get ready with my girls. From that I was able to be worry free during my special day and know that every moment wouldn't be missed. And sure enough when it came to watching my video every moment was on there. I was taken back to my wedding day like it was happening all over again and that is when I knew I made the right choice going with Coelho Video Production. If you are in the market for a videographer to capture your special day let Coelho Video Production do it for it, you won't be disappointed.

If I could give Phillip Alan Films ten stars, I would. I got married in October of 2010 and…read morebooking a videographer, or 'mini film maker' as Phill would say, was the last thing on my mind. I had done a ton of research and even asked for referrals from recent brides, but my budget just wouldn't allow me to have one. So with just a few months before the wedding, I figured heh, what the heck. No videography for me. Fast forward to a couple months before the wedding....my friend sends me contact information for Phill. I checked out his website/blog and my first thought was 'are you kidding me, he's going to be pricey'. His work was really really really really good and shockingly, he had a package that was affordable for me. So I made contact with Phill and he met me the following weekend to talk details. The thing I particularly like about Phill, aside his awesome work, is that not only is he beyond talented and affordable, but he is a really easy person to work with. I've been in seven weddings to date and I feel like a lot of vendors aren't as nice and they don't take the time to get to know you. Phill asked me a lot of questions to get a good sense of who we were as individuals and as a couple. I can go on and on about how great Phill is but let's talk about his work. When we got our wedding video, I was nervous to watch it for some reason. After all I bought a package that allowed just a one man team to film my big day.....how much footage can he really shoot? Did he capture everything I needed/wanted? My thought in the end is you get what you pay for. I didn't want all the extra footage with Phill shooting me getting ready, or Alex getting ready so whatever we got, that was going to be IT! We pop the DVD in and OMG.....I have to say it's the best wedding video I've seen. A few things I noticed that other videographers don't do is Phill features a lot of your guests. I suppose if you don't want that, you can tell your videographer but I didn't tell Phill anything. I just told him to do whatever he wanted; I put my trust in Phill and I am so thankful he was able to deliver. I highly advise you to book Phill if he is available on your big day. You will not regret it. Everyone told me that I wouldn't watch my video more than once but I've seen it about 20 times to date. On random days, I'll pop it in and admire my own wedding, and how beautiful it was. Haha! And for those that think videography is not important...make a point to factor it into your budget.....Phill told me something that is soooo very true. There are just some things that photographers just cannot capture...that's what a videography is for. So call Phill TODAY and BOOK HIM!

We got married in September 2016, and Phill was our videographer! Where to begin when discussing…read morehow amazing he is...?!? We found him from a referral from a friend. And we are so happy she did her homework because he is fabulous!!! Since the holidays began immediately after we got married, it took phill a few months to get us our final product-but let me tell you... waiting a few months is worth it because the holidays were stressful and the start of the new year was chaotic... so receiving our package in February was PERFECT. we got to sit down and watch out creation-no words could describe our joy! Phill And his team literally thought of the detail work. The package came with a black box with USB in it. The USB is customized with his very wonderful and simple logo... the DVDs and BLU RAY came with a wedding photo on it. It is not cheaply made. We knew we would be getting a good product, but never thought it be this!!!! I do not want to post a photo because I want you to use him and be surprise at the quality of work he provides! I would back him up 100% When I was getting ready on our wedding day, he was so accommodating! He is very creative! Watch his videos on Instagram and Facebook! He had an eye from the small details! He captured things we forgot about. Made us smile!!! I love love his work!!! My only problem now is that I do not have an event coming up... so I don't know when I can use him again!!! Love you phill and your amazingness!!!

N Compass Cinema filmed my wedding Jan of 2013. THE STRONG…read morePOINTS: We really enjoyed their highlight review of the wedding - I think this is their FORTE - the turnaround time for this highlight reel was 24-48 hours. We watched on our honeymoon in Hawaii. I've gotten so many compliments and raves about the highlights video and it definitely helped me remember all the details. We weren't originally going to hire a videographer but we decided to 2-3 months before the wedding - SO GLAD we did. Check out the highlight reels on vimeo.com! You'll love them! I like that they had 2 people filming and the price point is very reasonable. THE DOWNERS: Music was a very thought out process in my wedding ceremony. I picked music that wasn't traditional and I really wanted it to come out in my wedding video. Sadly, while watching the video I heard the generic background music CLASHING with the HARP music that was playing during the ceremony. For about 5 minutes, the music clashing against each other was very distracting and made me very, very sad. Even the String Quartet music that was playing while I was walking down the aisle was cut out. After paying $1,000 for the string quartet, I don't get to hear them on the video. {Insert SUPER SAD face here + tears} I don't hold this against them. I partly think that I should have specifically said to keep all the original ceremony music in the long video reel. But, also, I think that as videographers, I would think that if they heard the crashing on the video reel while editing, they would have thought about cutting their music out and letting the HARP play. Considering that they have great reviews here on yelp, it just makes me think they didn't really sit down and take the best care with editing process on our video. Maybe they should consider to include every client through the editing process. My advice to you: HIRE THEM! Generally, you won't be disappointed. But make sure you're specific on what you want kept on the long video reel and what you don't mind being cut out. Lastly, Just an FYI - the wait time to get your actual DVD/BLU-RAY wedding reel video will be 1 year after the wedding. This is specified on the contract. I got married in Jan. I got the video Mid-Dec. This is why this review was written so long after we got married. But, at the end of the day, I'm happily married. {Insert SUPER HAPPY FACE here}

We really enjoyed the shots he took with his drone for our wedding, and how he was able to capture the feel of our wedding through this highlight. Make sure to book with N Compass early because spots for their year quickly fill up. We strongly recommend N Compass Cinema! Also by the way, Renee is an amazing breakdancer! He showed off his moves on the dance floor during our wedding day.

My husband actually…read moregrew up with Michael and when it came down to looking for a videographer we knew he would be perfect. From the first consultation meeting through the entire editing process for music selection we had a fantastic experience. The sound and picture quality of the video is outstanding. It is blue ray which makes the picture appear so clear and bright. Michael and his team are very talented and will be sure to incorporate any ideas or suggestions you want. The editing is fantastic. The highlight video is outstanding. It takes 8 plus hours of raw film footage and compacts it in 3-4 mins and tells a beautiful story. I highly recommend using their services for your wedding

We are speechless. PVE has got to be the hardest working crew we have ever worked with. Chi…read moreChristine showed up at my last rehearsal without my asking and the whole crew literally worked non stop from morning till night the next day for our wedding. They posted the wedding pictures immediately the next day on Facebook so we could check them out and tag our guests. They got so MANY good angles and captured the most beautiful moments of the day. Hands down to PVE! They were serisouly our eyes and ears. My husband and I planned our own wedding so it was not easy to enjoy our day. We had a very busy wedding schedule and the fact that they followed it to a t was amazing. The way they edited the video makes everything so smooth and really captures our personalities. I don't know how many times they watched it to make a perfect video but it is so on point. We are extremely happy with their work and grateful for what they did for our wedding. Everyone in our family all commented on how hard they worked. Please check out the video below to see their work https://youtu.be/e4nyrtOEZ8w Thank you PVE! We can only see our day from your cameras in thousands of angles. Thank you for making our lifetime memories so much more special and perfecting them so when we look back, it's always "a perfect day".

PVE productions was a great choice when it came to our wedding photos. Many of our guests commented…read morethat their team did a wonderful job. They have many packages to choose from and are flexible on customizing them. A cool wedding favor they offered was instant photos (where guests take an entrance photo with the bride and groom and get a copy to take home at the end of the party dinner). I can't say enough how happy I am to have chosen Anh Hoang aka Kevin Nguyen and his team from PVE productions. The groom and I were pretty unorganized and one of the photographers was nice enough to drive us to the reception since we had no car. Too funny. We also had Anh Hoang take our Dam Hoi photos which turned out equally amazing. Can't wait to see the wedding video!

I recently hired Stephen to do my wedding video for my beach ceremony over Labor Day weekend. He…read morewas so great to work with and I would definitely recommend him! From first reaching out to him to get a bid, he was super responsive and really nice. Since we were getting married on a public beach during such a busy weekend, I was worried about having to coordinate with multiple vendors (videographer, photographer, transportation, et ) in case we needed to change locations at the last minute due to crowds. Stephen assured me that he was really mobile and could easily pack up and switch locations if necessary. Stephen also asked me thoughtful questions leading up to the big day about what songs I liked and what my husband and I are like to make sure that the video was exactly what we wanted. On our wedding day, Stephen showed up right on time and quickly got set up. I am really not sure how he was able to get all the angles he did on our video bc I never even remembered seeing him! I think that's a sign of a professional :) After our wedding, Stephen was so fast in getting us our finished product. Everything arrived exactly as he said it would and the quality was really great. It was kind of windy during the ceremony but the audio was still perfect. I would HIGHLY recommend getting a video of your wedding ceremony to anyone on the fence about it and I would DEFINITELY recommend using Stephen. He is such a talented professional and we really enjoyed working with him.

I HIGHLY recommend Stephen Spaulding. He was our videographer for our wedding in Carmel Valley in…read moreOctober 2010. He has a great personality and was a pleasure to work with. In truth, I was initially not interested in having a videographer. I was concerned about having a camera following us and our guests around and what that might be like. My concern was totally unwarranted. Stephen makes a point to stay in the background and you hardly notice he is there. But when the video arrived... WOW. My wife, my wife's family, and I were glued to our seats for the entire video. After my father received his copy of the video, he called me excitedly to report that he and my mom had just watched the video two times in a row! It was extremely well done. He captured so many precious moments, large and small, from our day. It is an amazing gift that we will now be able to relive our special day for the rest of our lives. Hire him.

Vernon was excellent at envisioning and incorporating exactly what we wanted in our wedding video.

They usually look really cheesy and become forced bataan marches of boringness when it's not your own wedding. However, I'm very grateful that we did end up getting a videographer, and specifically Trifocus Media as the videographer. Having seen the production quality and great editing of our video, I'm very impressed and very satisfied. Trifocus stayed with us during the entire wedding and got all of the nice moments that our photographer didn't capture. They were flexible in how we wanted to receive our videos (a short cut trailer with separate longer clips of the speeches/first dance). They use the latest technology to get some great shots: awesome drone-captured panning shots of the beautiful grounds, gopro camera to capture friends/family personal messages to us i'm very happy with how they edited our video to show the most interesting parts of the ceremony/speeches. It spared us from looking at ourselves standing awkwardly during long recitations. No bataan marches here!

I found Nick and TriFocus Media for my sister's wedding and the short version is that he and his…read moreteam are incredible. He was professional throughout, spent plenty of time with us before the day with planning, is clearly a master at his craft and has this ability to be invisible. The memories of the day should not include a camera or video camera constantly in your face, and honestly, I remember them being there but they were never obtrusive and always managed to get the most wonderful shots. We just got the video draft today and it was a very emotional moment watching it and reliving the day through the amazing footage, music and editing that Nick and his team created. I'm thrilled with the results and give him the highest recommendation. Our details: - Location: Nestldown, August 2016. Received feature film draft in December, 2016. - Additional coverage of the Friday night dinner at a separate location - In the venue, he had to cover 6 different locations and did it flawlessly - 200 guests - He's giving us a preview of the feature film for feedback (not sure if this is customary but it sure is nice). Bottom line - 100% worth the cost. Videos capture moments that will never been caught on camera because people aren't still frames - the emotion, the beauty and the setting blend together so much better with film and I know my sister will watch this for years to come and be able to pass it down to her kids.
