We had a very small, intimate backyard wedding. Our wedding photos came out so beautiful and the video highlight reel transported us back to that day, bringing all the feels along with it. I really loved Anne's communication, especially with our phone call a month before the wedding to work out the kinks. Absolutely ADORED her direction day-of. No wasted time and she made us look great in every photo! David was so slick with the camera work as well, half the time we didn't even know he was there! Kim did an amazing job editing our highlight video and really captured all the details in 3 minutes. He synced it well with the music we chose too (Birds of a Feather by Billie Eilish). I highly recommend Something New and Blue team to capture your day!!!

I chose Anne and Dave as the videographers for my March 2023 wedding for two main reasons: (1) they…read moreoffered a video package that I wanted, that few others did, and at a reasonable price. It was really important to me to have a copy of the raw footage from my wedding, because I knew I was going to be too busy to remember the ceremony and the toasts, and all those other important moments. Anne and Dave offered a package that included this footage, and at a reasonable price. The other videographer I had found who offered this was charging an exorbitant amount. (2) I spoke with Anne before hiring her, and I really liked her. She responded to my email inquiry very quickly. When we talked about their packages, she gave me her honest opinion--that, for what I was looking for, one of their cheaper packages would be sufficient. She could have tried to upsell me, but the fact that she didn't showed me that she has integrity. I also just really liked her energy when I spoke with her. She seemed really earnest, cheerful, and supportive. I'm so pleased with the work that Anne and Dave did. They arrived early to the venue and worked nonstop until after the first dance. Our photographer seemed to enjoy working with them, to the extent that I thought they were already friends (but they'd all just met that day). Anne and Dave both had good suggestions for certain shots they wanted, and even recommended some shots to the photographer. Lastly, there was a point before the ceremony where I was extremely stressed and frustrated, and Anne came over under the guise of fixing my necklace, but I think she was also trying to help me take deep breaths. She wasn't being condescending or anything, it was just a natural extension of her calm energy. That moment helped ground me, and helped me feel like I had someone supporting me. I could cry just thinking about it, because she knew what I needed in the moment. We received our highlight video less than 2 months after the wedding, and it's so cute! I'm excited to go through the raw footage next. This experience has been 100% positive.

She was so sweet! Ethan was the photographer assistant and he was joyful to work with. There is a slight language barrier, they spoke Chinese but everything was communicated well. All the photos turned out amazing. And we had such a good experience! We recommend it to anyone in the area to take their prewedding photos with them!

We're not super used to being in front of the camera, but KimFilms did such a fantastic job with helping to guide and pose us in ways that still looked natural. They had scouted our photo venue ahead of time and had some great spots in mind that gave us a lot of variety of settings for our photos. I knew I wanted my photo and video for the wedding to both come from one company, and KimFilms really proved why that is such an asset.

This city has always held a special place in our hearts, and having our wedding there was already a dream come true. But Kimfilms made it even more magical. From the moment we connected, the team exuded warmth, professionalism, and creative passion. They immediately understood our vision -- I had always dreamed of something timeless, elegant, and full of class -- and they brought that to life beyond anything I could have imagined. Every shot, every angle, every frame felt intentional, artistic, and deeply personal. Kimfilms didn't just take photos and videos -- they told our story. The way they captured the natural beauty of Santa Barbara alongside the intimate moments between my husband and me was absolutely breathtaking. They caught the quiet glances, the joyful tears, the laughter, and the love -- the kinds of moments you can't plan, only feel. And now, thanks to them, we get to relive those emotions forever. When we saw the final footage and images, we were moved to tears. It was everything we hoped for and more -- a perfect reflection of who we are as a couple and the love we shared that day. The vision of elegance and class was spot on, and Kimfilms honored it with such care and creativity. To the entire Kimfilms team: thank you, from the bottom of our hearts. Thank you for making us feel seen, for honoring our story, and for giving us the most beautiful memories to look back on. We will cherish your work -- and your presence on our special day -- for a lifetime. Czezka + Joaquin

Two of Eric's associates shot our entire wedding from beginning to end. It didn't feel like we were being pulled in many directions. These two worked in sync with our photographer, which was great. The two videographers had pleasant attitudes the whole day and it was so lovely working with them. - The end-product was better than what we had imagined!

After watching every single video posted on their website, which were all beautifully shot, my husband and I were convinced ESC media would best capture the essence of our love and our wedding day. Just wow! In the first day the video was sent to us, we watched it 50 times and I watched it at least 10 times a day for the rest of that month and now at least once a month! I well up with tears of joy every time. All of our family and friends who watched the video felt moved by our story. ESC worked their magic in stringing together all the speeches and our vows into a beautiful story that captured our goofy, cheesy relationship. Our initial communication was very professional and clear. Eric was very responsive and friendly! He was also accommodating and very sincere and honest. During our first meeting, Eric disclosed to us that his colleague, Jason, will be shooting our wedding. We felt very comfortable talking to Eric and also received alot of good advice from him. He even sent us some example timelines to help us plan before we even decided to book him. He was a valuable resource in the planning process and really made sure that we felt comfortable. We met with Jason a few weeks later and really clicked. We talked about key shots and footage and felt like they really understood what we wanted to capture. On the day of the wedding Jason and Grace were so supportive and helpful-offering extra sets of hands to prepare for the ceremony and reception and keeping me kinda calm when I was overwhelmed by all the coordination to be done. They were patient and immersed in the days events without seeming obstructive or intrusive. We are eternally grateful for all the magic and love you guys captured on our special day and the way it was retold through the highlight video. We can't wait to watch this video with our future children and possibly even grandchildren. I hope they feel the magic then that we felt on our wedding day. You guys are the best! It was such a pleasure to work with you all. Thank you!
