I trusted his vision from the start - I met Joseph through corporate lifestyle product shoots I was a part of with Oru Kayak. When my partner and I got engaged, I knew he was the person for the big day. He catches the magic light, never misses a sweet moment and has a cinematic way to capture the feeling. He and his team are organized, calm and flexible - so you can get through all of the group shots quickly. He's especially great with little kids. We would definitely recommend him!

Great communication every step of the way - from booking to day of, and with delivery of photos. Joseph was very thoughtful in recommending photoshoot locations, and also accommodating when I had to reschedule because of last-minute travel. The session itself was even more fun than the first time! Working with Joseph is like hanging out with a friend. He's so easygoing and we had a blast with him! Even in a location you've been to before, Joseph can find hidden spots for photos. We're planning to make family photoshoots with Joseph a tradition and have also recommended FATE Factory to several of our friends.

We'd like to thank Christina and her team for their amazing work on our wedding day! They were very…read moreprofessional and made everything feel so easy. We had multiple meetings before the wedding day and she provided helpful tips and a checklist of items to have prepared for some cinematic shots. She also arrived early to check out the venue and find good locations. They helped us figure out how to pose and recorded shots in various angles. We didn't pick a great location for our sunset photos/video shoot, but our photographer and Christina searched & found the perfect location to capture the sunset and amazing shots with the drone. Christina sent us our edited video less than a week after our wedding. We also really appreciated she provided us with a USB that had the full-day video clips. Highly recommend 10/10!

Amazing! One of the best wedding decisions we made was hiring Reel Motions. EJ and Thomas were so…read moredown to earth and friendly that it made us feel like we were hanging out with friends on our wedding day. They collaborated so well with our photographer and even took some pictures on their phones the day of. EJ sent them to me and I was so surprised at how sweet that was and how wonderful the iPhone pictures were. EJ and Thomas made sure to capture the entire day and to get key elements that were most important to us. We truly enjoyed spending time with them! They made us feel comfortable and were great at directing us as well as being able to hide in the background when needed. Both of them showed us throughout the process that they cared and wanted to make us happy. When we received the highlight video, we were blown away! My husband was apprehensive about hiring a videographer but I convinced him to do it as I really wanted to have those memories. After watching the highlight video, he was so happy we hired Reel Motions. They picked one of the songs we liked and it flowed perfectly with the video. They captured everything we wanted and more! I've watched it so many times and each time I love it more. Everyone we've shown it to is amazed at how beautiful it came out and how professional it looks. The video quality is top notch as well as the editing. I'm grateful for them taking the time to make this special for us. They even scheduled a call with us while they were working on it to confirm a few details. Later on we received the footage from the day which included another four videos (getting ready, wedding ceremony, speeches, and friends and family). Not only did they put two of the videos to music but they also made them into edited videos that are fun to watch. They captured moments that I didn't even remember and/or didn't notice that they were recording. The ceremony music sounded great and the mics they put on my husband and our officiant blended in pretty well and captured the voices well. We 100% recommend Reel Motions to anyone who wants a videographer to capture special memories. We would use them again in a heartbeat! On top of all this, their prices are more than fair and I can't imagine anyone being dissatisfied with them! EJ and Thomas are top notch all around!

There aren't enough words to fully capture the impact DJ Rick had on our wedding. He is the…read moredefinition of a professional - passionate, kind, and entirely focused on the happiness of his clients. Interestingly, though we are both musicians, and music lovers, my husband and I actually found the process of selecting our own wedding music surprisingly daunting. Rick stepped in not just as a DJ, but as a consultant, helping us talk through genres and the emotional timing for each moment of the day. The result was a masterclass in engineering. He helped us thread together a beautiful, soulful grouping of songs for our ceremony that transitioned into the ultimate 90s/2000s dance party for the reception. Our guests have not stopped raving about the setlist; it was exactly the high-energy, nostalgic vibe we wanted. DJ Rick has an incredible intuition for how to work a room. DJ Rick doesn't just play music; he curates an experience.

We were so very happy with DJRick. He listened to what we wanted and executed everything perfectly…read more He met with us several times for planning and guidance. Not only did he play great music, he kept the party flowing. He did music for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception and we were able to tailor it to our preferences.We particularly liked his suggestion of having each of our guest tables come up to us at our table for a group picture as opposed to us going to each table. It worked out beautifully. Our goal was to dance as much as possible and keep the dance floor full and that truly happened. I would recommend Rick to anyone planning an event and I would definitely use him again if we have another event.

Keith was easy to coordinate with ahead of time and always extremely responsive, which made the planning process smooth. Our photographer Robin was excellent. He helped us schedule the day to make the most of our time while still being mindful of the flow. We had a few special requests, like a photoshoot with our dog Bowie on the Embarcadero, and he made it all happen seamlessly. He also planned ahead to capture us at sunset overlooking the Bay Bridge, which turned into one of our favorite shots. We originally chose Robin for his incredible candid photography (since we're not naturals at posing), and we are so glad we did! Even our guests commented on how many wonderful candids he captured. At the same time, he guided us through posed photos when needed and brought a creative vision that went far beyond the basics we had in mind. It's also clear that Robin truly loves what he does - his enthusiasm made the experience even more enjoyable. On top of everything, he delivered our photos back to us in just one week, which is unheard of and so greatly appreciated. It was a lot of fun working with Robin - he was easygoing, professional, and stuck with us through a long day with such positive energy. We would absolutely recommend him and Lynds Photo & Video to anyone looking for wedding photography.

Vijay is a consummate professional, super easy to schedule and requires very little direction. He is personable, patient and thoughtful. He did a pre-engagement shoot at Filoli Gardens. My son and his fiancee were gave raving reviews for him. Looks like Vijay was fun, gave clear instructions and good tips throughout the shoot. I was amazed at the cheerful disposition with which my son came back from the photoshoot, considering he doesn't exactly like being photographed:) That should give you an idea of how easy it is to connect with Vijay. The engagement function was a bit challenging since we had over 150 people and groups were wanting to be photographed with the couple throughout the event; Vijay organized groups with ease, set up his shots and did it efficiently, managing to photograph all our guests. Vijay delivered the photographs from both the shoots very quickly. The results were outstanding. The shoot at Filoli was absolutely stunning! Overall classy, well composed shots, great locations, beautiful angles, excellent work with bright and low lighting, it was truly a joy to see what he was able to produce from each shoot. We will definitely reach out to Vijay when we have an event again, and I highly recommend working with him! One tip I'd like to share for host families, if you have a large group, put a shot list together and assign a friend to get through the shot list, this way you ensure you get all important family and group pics.

Alex and his team were there on time, very professional, and so fun to work with! He was also so quick to respond to my emails. My husband and I were pretty nervous at first but Alex made us feel comfortable from the beginning. He captured our natural selves and how we love to smile and laugh that our video turned out exactly how we wanted it to be. We were crying all over again while watching the final edit and WOW, we were blown away! Alex even captured the raw moment of my father and I hugging which was very touching and means so much because he is currently battling stage 4 sarcoma cancer. We will remember that moment for the rest our lives. Thank you again, Alex!! You were so wonderful to work with. We will look back at our wedding video and relive these unforgettable moments forever! We have already watched our video more than 10x! Lol If you are second guessing hiring a videographer and a great one at that, don't hesitate and hire IQ Videography. You will NOT be disappointed!!
