I had the honor of working with Brandon Onishi during one of the most difficult and emotional times…read morein my life -- my mother's funeral. From the very beginning, Brandon was incredibly kind, professional, and easy to work with. He communicated with me by phone and text, which made everything simple and smooth during a time when I had so many things on my mind. We were able to quickly secure the date, and the booking process was very easy. I paid the deposit through Venmo and the balance at the event. On the day of the service, Brandon handled everything beautifully. His setup and breakdown were effortless, and his music created such a meaningful atmosphere throughout the entire evening. During the funeral program, his music added a level of comfort and reflection that truly touched everyone in attendance. What made the day even more special was the music he played during the dinner reception afterward. It brought warmth to the room and allowed family and friends to gather, share memories, and celebrate my mom's life together. One moment that meant so much to me personally was when Brandon took the time to learn a song just for the service -- "I Hope You Dance" by Lee Ann Womack. Hearing that song played live during the service was incredibly emotional and moving. Many people who attended told me how powerful and beautiful that moment was. Later on, Brandon shared with me that he now performs that song at other events because of how meaningful it was. Knowing that a small piece of my mom's memory continues through the music he plays is something that means a lot to me. If you are ever looking for someone to provide music for a special event, I cannot recommend Brandon Onishi enough. His professionalism, talent, and genuine care truly made a difference on a day that meant everything to my family.

His music stands out because he's not merely a musician, he's an artist who sings and plays from the heart and connects with this audience. I attend as many of his public performances as possible, and if I had an upcoming private event I would absolutely hire him. Marie B.

They have almost everything you can think of or didn't think of in the studio. He helped us to get set up, made sure the equipment was working and gave us an orientation since it was our first time there. Acoustically, it's great. Walking down the hall, the other band was really cranking it and you could hear them playing through the door in Studio A. But once we got into Studio B, we couldn't hear anything else except ourselves. They also keep everything clean and as sterile as possible. I walked in on him wiping things down and vacuuming giving me confidence that I was entering a clean environment. Our very first band practice was a success thanks to West One Studios. We just needed a little more time for practice which I'm sure we will on our next one that will be very soon! Except for the lack of close/cheap parking I would definitely recommend these studios.

Whenever I rewatch my wedding day livestream ceremony & videography I cannot help but LAUGH OUT LOUD & smile remembering the day. My husband and I first heard of Orig Media when we went to a wedding expo. When we came across their booth, what stood out to us about them is the uniqueness of their videography and capturing the wedding day. We hired them soon after we met up with Jeff in person. He is very professional, friendly, chill and definitely is GREAT at his craft. To be honest, Orig Media was probably one of the first vendors we hired! LOL. As time went on, we continued to converse and send updates and the staff were amazing at following up with us in a timely manner. Come our wedding, we were in the middle of a pandemic, and THANKFULLY Orig Media had a livestream option for our wedding day ceremony. It was a GOD SENT because we couldn't have most of our guests attend anymore due to COVID. I am so glad we had that option because it turned out amazing. Funny part was after the ceremony when my husband and I went home to watch the livestream which was still on Youtube, you could hear our side commentary. LOL. We loved it! I'll admit it was also great to be able to have family & friends around the globe watch our ceremony in real time (Philippines, California, Boston, and Canada). When we got our final product of the videography of the day I was absolutely pleased with it. It was exactly what I imagined and more. It will definitely be a wonderful keepsake for our family to come. Do not hesitate to work with Orig Media. They are amazing! Also - besides doing private parties/projects they also do independent film and commercials I believe. I recommend them to everyone!

We had Jeff do a video invite for us as well as day of videography. We couldn't have possibly been happier with the service. Jeff and team are very quick to respond, very friendly and easy to get along with. It was never like working with someone as much as it was collaborating on a fun project with friends. I'm sure if Orig Media offered photography services as well we would have gladly hired them for that portion as well. Definitely would recommend these guys for any and all video needs. 5 out of 5 would hire again.

With the help of our amazing wedding coordinator, Karisa, we booked ARIA Studios on May 16, 2019. We were overjoyed that we got a professional photographer on such short notice and it was especially important to get these memories captured. Our wedding day came and I arrived at our venue. As soon as I stepped out of the car, Jess from ARIA Studios was there, snapping moments that I will remember for a lifetime. She was so kind and patient with my (now) husband and I (we are really not models). We loosened up with her gentle guidance and she even helped me convince my husband to get in the water for some photos. My mother's health declined quickly and so I asked for the photos of her from that day expedited, knowing full well that it might be an additional fee. I received the photos quickly and Mom was able to see them and enjoy them. Now our family will remember this day, my happiest day of my life, which I was able to share with my beautiful Mom. We have received all of our photos and Hubby and I could not be more happy with them. It's taking a lot of restraint not to be totally weird about it and print lifesize photos and put them all over the house. In any case, Hubby and I are doing a part 2 and have already booked ARIA Studios for that day (and asked for Jess specifically!). We can't wait because we know what a great job they do.

About 4 days after our wedding, Holly was able to email us a couple of preview photos while they worked on editing the rest. We chose the Fusion package (Cinema 8 Hour Package, Same Day Edit and Photo 8 Hour Package). I am so amazed by the quality of their work and am amazed by how fast they can edit the videos to show in the Same Day Edit. And I absolutely love our Same Day Edit (https://vimeo.com/263970983), I watch it at least three times a week. It let's me relive this special day :) I would highly recommend using Aria Studios!!
