Casey was very responsive and professional leading up to the event with prompt e-mail response timing, established a price model that worked with my budget prior to the date of the event, and arrived promptly on time with assistance, equipment and was ready to go! They were very flexible as the event progressed, great with modifying the interview questions based on the person they were interviewing, and made quick decisions when artists scheduled to be interviewed arrived late, and required some shifting around. They were very easy to communicate with which is very important! We are now in conversation with video editing, and I am very excited to continue doing business with them, and cannot wait to see the end result and the final footage of the event! Thank you Agamemnon Studios for a wonderful experience!!

I would recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat! You really cannot find a better trio than them to be apart of your wedding day.

We hired Melissa from Weddings By Sunnyside for photography. Melissa was fabulous and incredibly…read morefun/easy to work with. Important things first - the photos are incredible. Everyone loves them and loves the way they look in all of them. The colors are warm and she did a wonderful job of taking candid and special shots that are both unique and gorgeous. From our first meeting, a site tour and the day-of, Melissa and team were always professional, but as if we had known her for years. Throughout the wedding, Melissa made the photo experience feel natural and special at the same time. I love that the photos capture our actual dance moves, laughs and emotions, they aren't just a bunch of family shots.

One of the tips we always heard before our wedding was to get a wedding video. And we originally…read moredoubted that tip, deciding to not get a wedding video after seeing many different videographers and sample videos. But after seeing Matter Video's and chatting with Dan, we completely changed our minds, and we are so glad we did. Working with Dan was a joy, and he was highly professional and very experienced. He worked seamlessly with our photographer -- so well that we kept forgetting that they weren't part of the same team! His wedding videos are able to capture the raw, emotional highs of a wedding without feeling cheesy or overdone. He really portrays the beauty and happiness that is present throughout the wedding. He captured so many details and moments that we didn't get photos of. We recommend him even more if you are having your wedding at Nestldown, as he clearly knew how to navigate all the best shots and lighting and timing throughout Nestldown.  He was friendly, easy to work with, clear in his directions, and also got us our sneak peek video within 24 hours of the end of the wedding. We loved our sneak peek so much that we opted for the longer video package! Thank you for the best keepsake! -Nickie & Jonathan, Nestldown June 2025

There's truly no better choice than Dan for your wedding video! His passion for what he does is…read moreundeniable, and he takes the time to really listen to what you want. Dan and Travis were the sweetest duo--so kind, fun, and easy to be around. They made us feel completely at ease, and we spent most of the day laughing with them! Dan's attention to detail is absolutely flawless. He has a way of turning real moments into something that feels cinematic, capturing every magical second with such care. We received our wedding video yesterday, and I'm not exaggerating when I say we've already watched it at least 50 times. I don't think I've ever cried or smiled so much in one sitting--my cheeks are still so sore! Thanks to Dan and Travis, we'll be able to relive the most special day of our lives over and over again. It's something we'll cherish forever. We're endlessly grateful to Dan and Travis!

Videography was something important to me, since my parent watch their wedding video every anniversary. I wanted a videographer who was professional, but also able to bring in sentimentality. I am so happy to have worked with Kyle! He is kind, funny, and a Brooklyn native--bonus points for me! I am not used to the spotlight, so having a camera in my face all day was not something I was used to, however, Kyle did made the experience comfortable and fun. I can tell that he was paying attention to details, angles, lighting, and content. I am so excited to see the final product, and I am so confident in Kyle's abilities. My husband and I enjoyed working with Kyle and posing for the camera, something I thought I wouldn't like! Kyle truly made the entire process seamless and tailored to our interests. Thank you, Kyle and the Hit Maker team, for bringing our wedding to life. We can't wait to see the video!

From the moment we booked with Elegant Events Media, my husband and I knew we had made one of the…read morebest decisions for our wedding. Having a true one-stop shop for our photographer, videographer, DJ, and officiant made the entire wedding planning process so much easier and significantly reduced the stress that comes with coordinating multiple vendors. One of the things we loved most was that, even though everyone worked under the same company, we were still able to choose the specific professionals we wanted from their roster of talent. It gave us the perfect balance of convenience and personalization. We were fortunate to have Andrea as our photographer, Hai as our videographer, DJ Tri as our DJ and MC, and Brad as our officiant--and every single one of them exceeded our expectations. Andrea was absolutely amazing to work with. She was creative, patient, made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, captured every meaningful moment so naturally, and was always one step ahead in anticipating the perfect shot. Our wedding photos turned out so beautifully and brings us to happy tears. We cannot wait to cherish these photos for the rest of our lives. Hai did an incredible job capturing the details, emotions and special moments throughout our day. He was extremely professional, creative, knew how to get the best footage/lighting, and somehow managed to document everything without ever feeling intrusive. We fully trusted Hai in documenting our wedding day. We are confident that our wedding film that Hai produces will allow us to relive the magic of our special day for years to come. DJ Tri completely understood the vibe we wanted for our wedding. We hired a string quartet for our ceremony and cocktail hour, and DJ Tri provided his own sound system in order to amplify their music. For the reception, he kept the energy exactly where it needed to be, and transitioned the music we requested so well throughout the evening (from island reggae, to country music, to hip hop). He also kept the timeline running smoothly and made every transition feel seamless. Brad was the perfect officiant for our wedding. He delivered a meaningful ceremony that felt personal, genuine, and truly reflected us as a couple. We received so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful the ceremony was. What stood out most about Elegant Events Media was how seamlessly everyone worked together. There was clear communication, coordination, and teamwork throughout the entire planning process and on the wedding day itself. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our vendor team was already familiar with one another and worked so well together. Our wedding day was everything we had dreamed of and more, and each member of our EEM team played such an important role in making it so magical. We are incredibly grateful to Elegant Events Media for helping create memories that we will treasure for a lifetime. If you're looking for talented professionals, exceptional service, and an stress-free planning experience, we cannot recommend Elegant Events Media highly enough.

The photos look like they belong in a magazine, the video made me cry happy tears all over again, and the photo booth was a nonstop hit with our guests. What stood out the most was their energy and professionalism. They blended in so seamlessly that we forgot the cameras were there, and yet they captured every candid smile, every tear, and every detail we worked so hard to plan. Looking through our gallery feels like reliving the day moment by moment. I would recommend them a thousand times over. Choosing them was one of the best wedding decisions we made.

My husband and I hired Andy to do both photo and video for our Chinese bridal party, wedding…read moreceremony at San Francisco City Hall plus 2 outdoor SF locations, and Chinese dinner banquet at Koi Palace in Daly City. This consisted of 3 different days of shooting. Before the event days, we communicated through email and he was always very quick to respond to my questions and provide me with the information I requested for. He provided a clear contract with all details listed out so it was a very stress-free process. On the bridal party day, he was very punctual and arrived at my mother-in-law's home earlier than the planned meeting time. My husband and I met him for the first time that day and we immediately had a great first impression. He was very friendly and easy to work with. All of my family members complimented how hard working he was as he went around the house photographing every single detail. The house had lots of decorations and bridal food set up by my two mothers and he made sure to capture literally every inch. He was very respectful to all of my family when instructing everyone how to pose or organize in different areas of the home. I have a large family so there were many rotations of different groups for photos but he made it fun for everyone by offering suggestions for fun and candid poses. It made everyone feel more relaxed and less stiff. He really made us feel like we got all the shots we could possibly get. Everybody was happy and the event went smoothly. A week later, we got married at San Francisco City Hall. Andy and his partner arrived earlier than planned and got all of their equipment set up and ready so we would have all the entrances of us and our family captured before the ceremony. He had done numerous wedding shoots at SF City Hall in the past so he was able to be like a tour guide for us during the entire event. Before the signing, he took portrait photos of us and our intimate family. Then he led us to the clerk office and told us everything to be expected. He captured our signing and the entire ceremony at the rotunda. He always made sure to get the best angles without people in the background and politely asked others to please move aside so we could get a great shot. We really appreciated this. Our ceremony was on a Friday, which is the busiest day at City Hall for marriages, so there were so tons of people everywhere. But Andy tried so hard for us and always found the open spots for our chance. After taking every possible shot at City Hall, we headed out for an outdoor shoot at two locations of our choice in SF. First we went to Fort Point and took photos inside and around the Fort building. It was a very cold and windy day so Andy did his best to work fast and allow us time to warm up in between different shots. He was very considerate and always checked with us to make sure we were okay and could continue in the cold. We were able to walk to many different spots in the Fort for a nice variety of photos. The next outdoor location we visited was Palace of Fine Arts. He also had past experience here so he knew great places for us to sit or pose at. He knew we were getting tired from the long day and it was still really cold outside so he did his best to shoot fast so we could get through the entire area quickly. He and his partner must've been really cold too but they never complained and were always enthusiastic to take more photos. The following day was our dinner banquet at Koi Palace. Once again, Andy and his partner arrived earlier than the expected meeting time and got to work photographing all the details possible inside the restaurant. The inside of the restaurant was a bit tight since we had the max amount of tables allowed in the space but they did a great job maneuvering around and setting up equipment in areas that were out of the way for walking. When people started to arrive and sign in, he made sure to capture candid moments as well as take the posed photos with every single group. He was so friendly to all of our guests and made everyone feel comfortable to take photos. The whole event went smoothly and we got everything we wanted captured. All of our photos turned out amazing and we got so many compliments from friends and family. They will be treasured for years to come. Before meeting him we were camera shy people and didn't know how to pose for anything. After working with him, we now feel like naturals standing in front of a camera. He always knew how to make us feel relaxed and comfortable. It really boosted our confidence and helped us get amazing photos that we never knew were possible. He is truly a hard worker who is passionate about his job. We could not have asked for a better photographer and were so lucky to have found him. We highly recommend Andy and his team to anyone for their special day.

From our first interaction to receiving the final gallery, Andy was professional, easy to communicate with, and incredibly thoughtful in his approach. On the day of the wedding, Andy showed up early, was calm and collected throughout, and made us feel totally at ease in front of the camera. He struck the perfect balance between giving just enough direction and letting moments unfold naturally. He was really great when it came to the family photos and helped capture some great moments with our little nieces and nephews. The photos turned out beautifully--crisp, vibrant, and full of life. Andy captured everything from the big moments of the wedding to the reception to the quiet, intimate ones of the decor, getting ready to the first look. His eye for detail and composition is truly impressive, and we're so grateful to have such a meaningful record of the day. If you're looking for a photographer who is professional, personable, and truly passionate about his craft, we can't recommend Andy enough!

Since it doesn't happen very often, it's naturally very important to us to capture the memories of the event! Alan was amazingly wonderful and completely dependable...both during the shooting as well as with the editing. Plus before the party he edited the video from our 2005 Decade Party so we could play a short version of it at this one and he led me patiently through the editing process. He worked along with our DJ to handle some of the projection challenges (Skyping a relative) before the event. He was always very easy to contact and answered all my questions. During the party, he got all the important parts of it and was very inconspicuous with his camera. But where Alan really impressed me was after the party when I was trying to edit the raw footage and get it all ready to give to people at Christmas. I had a very tight deadline, but Alan came through beautifully and made it happen...and he inserted 10 custom titles that I had made specifically for the video! I was simply amazed at how patient he was, and he even dropped the finished DVDs off at my place to save me time. But even with all this custom work I thought his charges were very reasonable. I can't recommend Alan highly enough...I would hire him again in a heartbeat!!!
