In searching for vendors to service our upcoming wedding, we looked at the following essential factors: quality, pricing, communication. Bryan was very attentive and understanding of the stresses that accompany wedding planning. He will curtail a package that will work with your budget with little sacrifice to your desired result. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we weren't able to retain him but I believe his work would have been outstanding! read more

We recently got married in July 2019 in the San Gabriel Valley. My husband and I knew that the photographer and videographer would be the important factor on our wedding day since that would be something we would be able to look back in future days. With time restrain of planning a wedding within 6 months we were on crunch time. Our friends who hired them for their wedding day back in 2016 referred us Bryan and Melissa from Looking Glass. After our first meeting we knew they would be our photographers and videographer for our special day that we booked them before our goodbyes. They answered all our questions and worked with us a little more than a month before our wedding since my husband and I had a trip planned 2 weeks before our wedding day. (This big trip was planned before the wedding). The day of the wedding they were on time and professional. They were in good spirits since our wedding was 12 hours long with no break in between. Knowing we had so many hours of video and photos we were surprise to know that they had them ready for us 7 weeks after. On time for our family gathering. Our family loved the video and the photos they captured of our day. My husband and I are very pleased and happy of them capturing our day and our joy. Thank you Melissa and Bryan!! Look forward to future milestone with you. read more

See all

Bryan Ricke from Looking Glass Wedding Photo & Video is your wedding photographer and videographer!!!!! These guys are great! We hired him to film our wedding and we are 100% satisfied. He's a really cool guy, who you'll like as soon as you meet him. Very laid back and easy going as well as being easy to talk to. This is super important! You're going to be spending the whole day with them, you should hire someone you feel comfortable with. It was great having him and Katrina there! We never felt awkward about being filmed because they had a way of making you feel comfortable. Both he and Katrina did a wonderful job. Everyone in our family loved the videos he did for us. And he gives you a few different videos... like a short teaser video, the longer video of the wedding, and little clips of the different parts of the wedding. Bryan was great with communication leading up to the wedding day as well as during and after. Responding to texts as well as emails. The videos were worked on, and sent to us pretty fast. And it arrived in a cute little wooden flash drive! You will not be disappointed in hiring Looking Glass Wedding Photo & Video. We loved their work and would recommend them. Check out their website for more of their photography work. And their vimeo webpage for more videos. Ours: https://vimeo.com/136887284 More videos: https://vimeo.com/lookingglassphotovideo read more

Looking Glass Media - Video/Film Production Near Me

These two are amazing to work with. Melissa and Bryan are professionals that take their job seriously but are also lighthearted and enjoy the day, putting everyone at ease. The last wedding I worked with them had lots of specific traditions during the ceremony along with several small children running around and they managed to capture every moment and emotion perfectly. They are on time, seasoned, go with the flow, are constantly moving around to get the best light and angle and most importantly produce quality photos. If you want an affordable, quality, creative and friendly team to photograph your wedding or event then look no further:) read more

I used looking glass photo and video for my wedding in march and was amazed on the quality of photos and videos I received. Bryan and Melissa knew exactly what pictures and clips to take without me having to worry about any of it on my wedding day! They are super nice and very accommodating. I highly recommend them for your special day! read more

Bryan and Melissa are top notch! My husband and I booked them for our engagement and wedding day pictures. Both are stunning! Bryan worked with us on our Claremont Colleges engagement shoot. He spent about 2 hours with us and went through our idea board and some ideas he had. He also taught us how to pose. So that was super helpful. The engagement photos were edited and returned to us in about a week. They are so great. Both Melissa and Bryan shot our wedding day and I am so glad that they did. They work great together. From the moment they arrived to the hotel all the way to the send off, they were so amazing. Melissa stayed with me and the girls and Bryan was with my husband and the boys for getting ready pictures. They arranged the timing just right so that we could still have our group photos in the same location but shielded so that my husband and I could have our first look. They remembered to take all of the specific photos we had requested, they referred back to our sent photo sheet multiple times and they even took detail photos we forgot to request. We received 802 edited photos and just under 4000 unedited in 5 weeks. All on a super cute flash drive. We are so happy with their work and their reasonable prices really helped us out! 10/10 would do again and highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a photography team. read more

After researching and meeting with many photographers for our wedding, we decided to go with Bryan and Melissa because we instantly felt comfortable with them. At our initial meeting they asked questions we hadn't thought of. Aside from your spouse these are the people that will be around you most of your wedding day. Melissa responded to my late night emails and answered all my questions that a nervous bride has. We were all impressed with them. At first I didn't think the investment in photos AND video was worth it, but now looking back, every photo brings back a memory from that day and the video brings a smile to my face every time we watch it. We'll definitely be working with Bryan and Melissa in the future. read more

I have no doubt Bryan would be shooting our video for our wedding the moment I saw his work online. The highlight video is what hooked me in and I knew no one else would have the skill and such talent to make our as wonderful as he had shown on his website. The patience Bryan had was incredible no joke. Dealing with me and my deployed fiance he worked with us on a budget, our date that kept being switched because of my fiancee's deployment, last min me heading to Mexico and signing the contract with my mother in law, and last but not least his professionalism in working with the photographers I had (which by the way didn't do half a good of a job) I would've wished in investing with Bryan for our photos but if we ever plan on renewing our vows this is who I would turn to. Bryan thank you for working with us and making our video awesome I will always treasure it. read more

Bryan was really great at answering all my questions and putting me at ease. The final product turned out absolutely beautiful! I could not have asked for a better wedding video. read more

I cannot recommend looking glass enough. We hired Bryan to do our videography for our wedding at dodger stadium. He was so accommodating with every aspect of our wedding. He responds quickly to all calls and emails. We were hesitant to even hire a videographer due to our budget but we are so happy we found looking glass. Very affordable and nice quality work. He somehow gave us a beautiful video even with the restrictions of having our wedding at a non traditional venue. Thank you for capturing the best moments of our wedding day. read more

Me and my husband were blown away with our wedding video! Bryan really went above and beyond my expectations! I had seen some samples and was pleased with them that is obviously why we hired him but when we watched our video of our wedding I was speechless, in tears, and just over the moon. Looking glass is so underrated tho! But I just want everyone to know, Bryan is deff worth hiring. I did so much research and priced sooo many videographers here on yelp and so many of them seem that they over charge. Weddings can be so much money and I don't think it's right they want to charge soooooo much! So I found Bryan and we felt comfortable with what we paid. Everything goes by so fast, and I was a lil tipsy so I can't remember all of my wedding but! Thank God for Bryan! I'm so thankful I found him! He really did amazing! Outstanding! All of those good positive words are Bryan and his work! Thank you so much Bryan! You are awesome! read more

If you're looking for a wedding photographer I would highly recommend Bryan from Looking Glass Photography! I couldn't be any happier with the way our wedding photos turned out. Not only did he work with our budget, but he captured all of the important moments of the day. I have to say I really love the quality of the images we received from him. On top of that, he is really nice and easy to work with. I couldn't ask for anything more. read more

Absolutely the BEST! I can not say enough about how happy I am with my wedding video! Bryan is awesome!! He gave my husband and I the perfect video that we will share with family and friends forever! The editing was perfect, and he put the perfect music to our day with little to no direction from us. I would definitely use Bryan again!! I can't imagine anyone better! My friend paid 3 times more for a wedding videographer then I did, and even she admits my video is better! Awesome experiance!! read more

Bryan did a great job with our wedding video. The music we sent him was worked in so well, and the "highlights" video was a nice touch. The transition on the video from church to reception was seamles. Bryan was calm and sweet throughout the process and highly responsive. Thanks so much, Bryan! read more

They were always so helpful from answering our many questions to Melissa going as far as helping me with my dress because everyone had long acrylics and couldn't button me up! Haha. On our wedding day, They were everywhere making sure to capture every moment which me and my husband appreciated so much. I can not wait to see the final pictures! read more
