Wedding Film Packages

All of my full day wedding film packages (excluding 3 hour and 5 hour elopements) include (unless other arrangements are made):

-All day long coverage starting with the bride and groom getting ready until the last guests leave at the end of the night.  You only have one chance to get this day all captured correctly and beautifully and we want to make sure we've done our duty to bring value to your big day by documenting everything.

-Unlimited consultations before and after your wedding.  ( Subject to availability.) Have a question or want to share an idea?  I'm always available to help.  This is what I do and what I am here for.  It's your day and I believe communication makes everything work the best.  I want to make sure you are getting what you want for your day.

-Vendor recommendations.  I've established myself in this area and made quite a few friends in the process.  If you need help finding someone, I may know a great recommendation.

-Complete wedding film delivery usually within 2-4 months.  I don't want you to have to wait too long for your film, but I also want to pour all of my resources and time into delivering the best film I can for you.  Taking the videos on your wedding day was the fun and easy part, the editing is where I get to put it all together into a story for you.  The best part is when you share your reactions with me after seeing it!

-Wedding films delivered how you want them!  Online, on a USB drive, or on an optical disc.

-Personal license to share your film and photos online and in person with family and friends with unlimited downloads and sharing.  This is your day and your film and we encourage you to share it!

-A free 1-2 hour engagement session (planned video shoot in or around Turlock with some photos as well).

-Financing/a payment plan if needed (20% down at contract signing and remaining balance paid on a schedule leading up to 3 days prior to the wedding). No extra costs for a payment plan!

-A contract and meeting(s) so we both know what to expect and get a chance to meet face to face before your wedding.

-Years of experience and current, professional grade video equipment, audio equipment, and lighting (for video, not the whole event).

The packages I currently have for 2025/2026 elopement wedding films are:

$1800: just me with two handheld cameras. Three hours of coverage edited into a 7-10 minute documentary style highlight film including candid and any planned shots we discuss ahead of time. Some audio recordings used and music licensed from Soundstripe included.  Plus a 60 to 90 second social media highlight reel (I limit this to 90 seconds because that is the limit for Instagram allowing you to use their songs that are licensed with well known artists).  Coverage time starts at arrival at venue, travel time is not extra.   Actual fuel charges apply (usually between $40-$80 round trip depending on location (travel beyond 2 hours may require airfare/hotel accommodations).   (30% down payment to book = $600 plus a signed contract, remaining 70% can be made in payments leading up to the wedding, no later than three days prior to the wedding ceremony = $1200).

$2200: just me with two handheld cameras.  Five hours of coverage edited into a 12-15 minute documentary style highlight film including candid and any planned shots we discuss ahead of time (final length depends on footage captured). Some audio recordings used and music licensed from Soundstripe included.  Plus a 60 to 90 second social media highlight reel (I limit this to 90 seconds because that is the limit for Instagram allowing you to use their songs that are licensed with well known artists).  Coverage time starts at arrival at venue, travel time is not extra.  Actual fuel charges apply (usually between $40-$80 round trip depending on location (travel beyond 2 hours may require airfare/hotel accommodations). (30% down payment to book = $660 plus a signed contract, remaining 70% can be made in payments leading up to the wedding, no later than three days prior to the wedding ceremony = $1540).

The packages I currently have for 2025/2026 full day wedding films are:

$3200: just me with two handheld cameras. Full day coverage edited into a 7-10 minute documentary style highlight film including candid and any planned shots we discuss ahead of time. Some audio recordings used and licensed music (from limited available sources included).  Plus a 60 to 90 second social media highlight reel (I limit this to 90 seconds because that is the limit for Instagram allowing you to use their songs that are licensed with well known artists). And a free engagement shoot! (20% down payment to book = $640 plus a signed contract, remaining 80% can be made in payments leading up to the wedding).

$4400: just me with two handheld cameras and a third camera on a tripod for the ceremony. Full day coverage edited into a 45-70 minute documentary style highlight film including candid and any planned shots we discuss ahead of time (final length depends on footage captured). Some audio recordings used and licensed music (from limited available sources included).  Plus a 20-30 minute edit, and a 60 to 90 second social media highlight reel (I limit this to 90 seconds because that is the limit for Instagram allowing you to use their songs that are licensed with well known artists).  And a free engagement shoot! (20% down payment to book = $880 plus a signed contract, remaining 80% can be made in payments leading up to the wedding).

$5400: myself with two handheld cameras and a second filmmaker with a handheld camera, plus one tripod camera during the ceremony (4 cameras total for more angles when editing).  Full day coverage edited into a 45-70 minute documentary style highlight film including candid and any planned shots we discuss ahead of time (final length depends on footage captured). Some audio recordings used and licensed music included.  Plus a 20-30 minute edit, plus a 60 to 90 second social media highlight reel (I limit this to 90 seconds because that is the limit for Instagram allowing you to use their songs that are licensed with well known artists). (The same as the $4400 package but it includes a second filmmaker and a fourth camera. This adds double the footage captured and generally results in a more interesting final film as more angles are captured, at different focal lengths, and with a second person's creative vision. It creates double the footage to review and edit but the overall final film length stays the same.  I can only be in one place at a time, but interesting and exciting things will be happening at the same time in multiple places, so having a second filmmaker there to help capture it is a huge benefit if it fits your budget).  And a free engagement shoot! (20% down payment to book = $1080 for me plus a signed contract.  And $800 for the second videographer within a month of booking so they can make travel arrangements as early as possible.  Remaining balance of $4320 can be made in payments leading up to the wedding and I'm really flexible with those as long as I have an idea of what to expect).
