We first saw Emotion Picture Studios on a preferred vendor list and after reviewing some sample work they sent us and reading reviews on other wedding sites, we decided to go with them. Marc and company were very communicative and answered our many questions in the lead-up to the wedding. They have you fill out a questionnaire which gets you to think about which style of video you'd like, documentary or cinematic, and which songs you'd like included. We opted for cinematic. A few days prior to the wedding, we were notified that Jessica would be our videographer. She showed up right on time the day of the wedding after verifying which rooms we'd be getting ready in. Jessica was lovely to work with and it helped she also got along great with our photographers (I think she'd worked with some of them before). Right on schedule, about two months later, she reached out to us to let us know that both our trailer and our full wedding video were ready. The videos did not disappoint; they were equal parts beautiful and touching and included several of our favorite wedding songs including our first dance song. It was the right call for us to opt for cinematic; it was very moving to watch our wedding day unfold as if it was a shorter feature length film. We asked for our full video to include the entirety of both of our vows and it was wonderful to have those both captured. We're so happy to have the videos to help us remember the best parts of our wedding. Thank you for your wonderful work! read more

Have you ever met someone who fits their job so well, that you are sure that is what they were born to do? That is Marc. He has an amazing keen eye for details to capture; he was fun, passionate, extremely thoughtful and thorough throughout the entire process leading up to the event. If you are looking for an organized, fun, talented, passionate videography team that is expert at capturing stunning moments, then look no further. I highly highly recommend The Emotion Picture Studio and cannot wait to work with them again in the future! Is there an option to give 6/5 stars ??!! read more

Marc and the Emotion Picture Studio was recommend to us by our photographer, and are we glad we went with them! Marc and Lorelei tag teamed to film our big day, from our getting ready, first look, ceremony, and post-ceremony portraits, to all of the festivities in our reception. We began with Marc early in the morning. He had a great sense of humor, which put my husband and I at ease. We're both camera shy, and we weren't certain about how we'd do with a videographer following us around, but we both agreed that we hardly noticed Marc was there. In the evening, Lorelei was just as subtle; she truly was like a fly on the wall but was capturing each and every moment. Communication was via e-mail, and it was a breeze. We had access to an online portal and questionnaires to better aid the team when they edited our film. Marc was very patient and understanding when I didn't make the deadlines; thank you for this! It was a tad challenging to wait two months for the finished product, but it was well worth it. My husband and I are amazed at the cinematography and the details that were captured to piece our story together. The Emotion Picture Studio took great care in listening to what we wanted in our video, as well as exercising their expertise and creative license to merge our musical preferences with the best selection of film to create a masterpiece. I know we and our loved ones will continue to cherish these treasures for a lifetime. read more

So amazing to work with! From upon first contact we were so pleased with the responsiveness of Marc. Always so communicative and the online sheets made it so easy to get all the details he needed. The day of our wedding we were impressed with how detailed he was and could not wait! We just received our video (which btw got to us in such a great amount of time) and I was in tears at the trailer. We made some time to sit down and watch the full video and it felt like reliving the day. We could not be more grateful. All the beautiful parts and fun were captured- we love it! read more

The Emotion Picture Studio is so easy to work with. Marc was always quick to respond to emails. They showed up on time and delivered the finished video much earlier than we anticipated. The video they made is amazing! We keep watching it over and over again. Everyone compliments us on how amazing our video is. We would definitely recommended them to anyone looking to get a video done. read more

The team from The Emotion Picture Studio was the perfect choice to capture our wedding. The team was so accommodating and fun to work with. The team from beginning to end was available to answer my questions and ready to tailor the experience to my preferences. Initially, we were not going to hire a videographer but we were so glad that we did because they captured some memorable moments that we missed in the chaos of the day. They have so many different options to fit your budget and needs. I am more than satisfied with the experience and final product. read more

Marc and his team did an AMAZING job with our wedding videos. They were referred to us by our venue and we're so happy we chose them. They got great footage and put the video together seamlessly. The flow of the video, along with the timing of the music coordinated so well. We chose to get aerial footage and we're so glad we did; it makes the video that much better. Marc was great to work with from beginning to end. He was quick to respond to emails and was awesome during the day of the wedding. Thank you Marc for capturing our day and making some great videos out of it! read more

Marc with The Emotion Picture Studio did an amazing job capturing all the beautiful moments of our wedding. Watching the videos brought us back to the actual day and we could feel those emotions again. Your wedding day goes so fast, you find you don't remember a lot of it or didn't get to see every part of it. Marc captures all those forgotten or missed moments and we were so happy to get to watch it and relive that magical day. We most definitely recommend The Emotion Picture Studio. read more

I don't like to post bad reviews and I thought long about posting one here. I used this company for our wedding. I spent over $250k on our wedding at Disneyland and decided to use this company for videography. The sound during the film is different in many places so we have to adjust the volume. The editing was the sloppiest. Looks like they just threw a bunch of stuff together. I called Mark to tell him I was unhappy with the final film he sent me and he had the nerve to tell me he would charge to edit it again. It is a terrible video and just embarrassing to show people. They won't edit your video as you would like it so beware before hiring them. Most of the time they just stuck a camera on a tripod and did nothing. read more

Amazing is an understatement for Marc and Lorelai's incredible work. They captured our special day absolutely perfectly. We have received so many compliments on our video and pictures. Thank you guys so much for making this unforgettable day a dream come true. read more

We were beyond amazed by Emotion Picture Studio. About 3 weeks prior to our wedding we realized that we absolutely had to make room in our budget for a videographer. Biggest problem, finding someone amazing who had an opening and was willing to work with the short time frame. Emotion Picture Studio came to the rescue and helped us capture our big day! Their videographer was extremely polite, super professional and did a great job catching all of the big and little moments that make a wedding memorable. Then their staff was very helpful in getting the bits and pieces put together for the final product. We are so happy with our video and have watched it over and over again. I cannot thank you guys enough! read more

Mark really got to know us and everyone who watched the video had the same response, "That beautiful video is so YOU." The creativity was off the charts. He captured so many of the moments we missed that the video is priceless. read more

Marc and his company, The Emotion Picture Studio, are amazing professionals! He and his crew worked hand-in-hand with our wedding photographer, capturing the most memorable (and delightful!) moments of the day. The final product was beautiful, delivered in a short turnaround time after the wedding and reminding us of what a terrific time was had by all. If you have the chance to hire Marc and his company for your wedding, don't pass on the opportunity! read more

My husband and I had a wonderful experience with The Emotion Picture Studio. Marc was flexible, friendly, and very professional. He was easy going and made and accommodations we needed. He worked well with my photographer and both did a wonderful job on the wedding day. We got are wedding video in a timely fashion and it totally exceeded our expectation! It captured every important moment of our special day! Marc put in all the songs we wanted and the audio was loud and clear. My husband and I watch the video as often as we can. Thank you to the Emotion Picture Studio for such a wonderful wedding video! If you are looking for a videographer, Mark has our highest recommendation! read more

For our wedding, we had Marc as our videographer. He was very professional and easy to work with. During the ceremony and reception, he did a great job of catching the best moments, while also being nearly invisible (we hardly noticed his presence)! We received the edited video within just a couple weeks, and it turned out amazing. We really enjoyed watching it and reliving the whole day. Overall, we highly recommend Marc and The Emotion Picture Studio to capture your special day. read more

Marc was very professional. I called him with just a week's notice because my sister in law wanted to have a video of her husband's funeral. Although Marc couldn't attend, he did send a videographer (I'm blanking out on her name) who was lovely. She was very professional and sympathetic to our needs during this difficult time. Although the first draft of the video didn't download properly, Marc was great and made sure it was right the second time (which was still received in less than a month after the event). He will definitely be the first call I make next time I need a videographer. read more

We just received our cinematic short video and it's absolutely beautiful. Marc captured everything perfectly. Our video is better than I could have ever imagined and I'm so thankful that we hired The Emotion Picture Studio. Prior to the wedding, my husband was very hesitant to spend the money on a videographer but after watching the video we are sooooo happy that we hired Marc. Watching our wedding let us relive the day and brought joyful tears to our eyes. Marc captured so many things that we would have missed otherwise. The music pairing, vows, and speeches were captured exactly how I wanted. Thanks for capturing priceless moments that we will cherish for years and years to come. read more

I have to say that I am overall very disappointed with our Emotion Picture Studio wedding video (Cinematic Short). The audio quality was very poor. The only person that could be heard clearly during our vows was our friend who was officiating the wedding. I was not given a microphone for my vows (which I was told I would be getting), and even my now husband who DID have a microphone can not be heard clearly on the video. During our first dance, a stationary camera was used to capture the moment. There was no videographer manning the camera, and as a result the back of my sister's head blocked a good portion of the video. This was later edited when I asked, but of course, there was no way to completely edit it out. Finally, we were asked to provide 6-8 songs for the video. I had expected that a sampling of most of the songs would be used for the video. Instead, only 3 or 4 songs were used in total which made the video overall less interesting to watch. Also, our first dance (a slow number) was shown during the cinematic short with a very upbeat, club-like song playing; it just didn't fit the feeling of the moment. In retrospect, my husband and I should have either gotten a friend to video our wedding, or spent significantly more money on a better wedding videographer. I have tried really hard to be less disappointed with our video, but the more friends' wedding videos I have seen, the more disappointed I have become. My video was nothing at all like the beautiful sample videos on the Emotion Picture Studio website. I am not one to leave negative reviews (in fact, I have only ever written positive reviews on Yelp), but I absolutely cannot recommend Emotion Picture Studios to anyone. read more

The Emotion Picture studio was amazing to work with on our wedding video! They were always extremely responsive with emails, and extremely reliable and prompt day-of. Our video is everything we could have wanted and more :) read more

Marc and his team at Ashley Video / The Emotion Picture Studio are amazing! We hired them for our wedding on October 27, 2012 and we got our DVDs just in time for Christmas. They were fabulous! My groom and I had a few disagreements over whether or not to spend the money on a videographer and how much coverage (hours) to pay for. I cannot stress enough that Marc and his crew were worth every penny! We went with the longer version (you have a couple different options) and we love, love, love our video! We have actually had friends in our bridal party ask if they can watch it when they come over - honestly! Our parents love it too of course, especially some of the music, which you get to pick yourself. It's true what they say, the day goes by so fast and trust me, you'll wish you could have seen much more than you'll actually remember the next day. Let the Emotion Picture Studio be your eyes and ears and preserve those awesome moments for you. We are deliriously happy that we did and like I said, it was worth every penny. They're great! read more

Marc did an amazing job with our wedding video! He captured every moment perfectly and even stayed longer to do so. We are so happy with our video and highly recommend him. read more

I would give them zero star if I could please please stay away from them, as other reviews mention the quality is really bad and they use stationary camera :( the whole video is terrible we first ask for non edit version, then they called and say will be nicer to edit and we agreed and pay the difference, then we get the DVD and the whole DVD is wrong we have 15 minutes of silent and ... , there is nothing from a cocktail hour or our toast then song we chosen wasn't there we contacted them and they promise they fix it and now is almost two years and nothing the last time my husband letting them now they like no is good if you want extra editing will be $200/hr, is an important day in your life stay away from them ...... read more

We are so in love with our wedding video and experience from The Emotion Picture Studio. The artistry and quality were more than we could have imagined. We were looking for someone to document our special day and we got that. However, we also received a beautifully edited video that made us look like movie stars. Wow!! Absolutely amazing. Our family and friends love the video too and it is so special to have this to share with people who could not make it to the wedding. Marc is a lovely person and we are so grateful that he was part of our day. Thank you so much! read more

It was a pleasure doing business with Marc and The Emotion Picture Studio. This was for my daughter's wedding in September 2013. Marc was extremely easy to work with, and professional in every way. And we are all so pleased with the video. Marc was able to capture all the meaningful moments and put it all together in a beautiful way. We just love it. We decided on the feature film (longer) style and decided to add the two song recap. That was a great choice. The longer feature film gives a great review of the entire day. The two song recap is perfect for those who just want to see all the highlights. And it was all done with music that my daughter picked out. Initially we were unsure about hiring a videographer but are so glad that we did and that we picked The Emotion Picture Studio. All in all a perfect experience! read more

Initially we weren't going to use a videographer for our wedding ceremony and luckily we were recommended to The Emotion, and are very glad that we had them video our wedding ceremony. I really liked working with Marc because he was very quick to respond via email, and didn't require a lot of phone calls, which made it very easy to communicate with him. He offered flexible options and tailored our package to exactly what we needed. The day of, he was professional, on-time and video taped exactly how we had hoped he would. He mailed us our wedding video very promptly after our big day. Overall, exactly what we were looking for! read more

Marc with Emotion Picture Studio is the definition of a professional. From beginning to end, I knew I didn't have to worry about the videography. Marc helped with timing decisions, videography packages, questions, etc; he had us covered. Marc did exactly what I wanted with the final cut since I was very specific about not cutting speeches or parts of the ceremony. I've heard of so many awful stories where the videographer takes matters and music choice into their own hands and run wild, but that was so far from how Marc works. It's all about what you want, and Marc executes from beginning to end. Our wedding video is stunning and captures the moments and mood of the entire day. The cherry on top is the fact that the turnaround from the wedding day to receiving the final product was faster than I ever expected. Do yourself a favor and look no further than Marc with Emotion Picture Studio! read more

We were very impressed with everything about Emotion Picture Studio. They were so easy to work with. We gave them all of our wedding info and music we wanted to use through their website. They showed up to the wedding and were very professional. We hardly knew they were there. They stayed with the photographer most of the time, so when we received our video it was like seeing the pictures come to life. They captured the emotion of the wedding and receptions perfectly. They captured private moments between my husband and me that I didn't know they captured and that I didn't remember. It was really nice to see it on the video. I highly recommend them!! read more

Absolutely amazing!!! Marc and his team of videographers did an absolutely breathtaking video. They captured all the important, fun and silly moments that really made our wedding special. I love being able to work with a vendor who really will give the bride and groom as much or little direction as they want. If you are the bride that really has a clear cut vision of what you want in your video Marc and his team make sure they do that. I on the other hand felt they could piece together my cinematic short better than I could and I was absolutely right! The video brought out the emotional aspects of our special day and the fun and beauty in our event, our friends, family and each other. Completely worth the money and you wil regret not having them there to capture every moment!! Plus Marc was so good I didn't even realize he was in certain areas of the venue until I saw I to the video. That is how you know the man is good!!!! read more

We are very glad that we hired a videographer for our wedding and grateful that Marc from The Emotion Picture Studio was our videographer. Marc was easy to work with, responsive and professional. On the wedding day, he was on time and ready to capture every special moment from the pre-wedding ceremony to the end of the reception. Marc worked well with our photographer, capturing everything on the video from multiple angles and yet we were not aware of his presence during the ceremony or reception. Our full-length video is beautiful, capturing the emotion of the day as well as all of the important and memorable moments, including those that we either forgot or did not see. Within weeks of our wedding, Marc delivered the edited video with our selected music. We are extremely happy with our wedding video and highly recommend Marc and The Emotion Picture Studio for anyone considering a videographer for their special event. read more
