I fell in love with Joel’s incredible videography long before I met and fell in love with my husband. It was 2014 and my best friend was getting married. We would sit on her bed for hours watching Joel’s videos and bawling our eyes out, both because of how amazingly authentic and beautiful his work was but also because we knew my friend didn’t have the budget to hire him for her wedding. Unbeknownst to her, her fiancé surprised her by hiring Joel and she was able to get her perfect wedding video. Fast forward four years and it was my turn to get married. I knew I had to hire Joel. I didn’t look into any other videographers, because I had been waiting for the opportunity to work with him. In my opinion, no one else’s work even comes close. My fiancé was on the fence a bit about making the investment as I’m sure a lot of grooms are (“aren’t the photos enough? Do we really need a video?....”). One day, he and his sister were talking about it and she said, “you know, the video was the best investment we made at our wedding. Brooklyn (their daughter) watches our wedding photo at least once a week.” That conversation sealed the deal and we moved forward with booking Joel. Then, a little later in the process, we made the decision to hire him for our rehearsal dinner as well, knowing that a lot of people would give speeches and that we wanted to capture the entire weekend’s worth of festivities. Joel was simply amazing to work with. He is not only kind, professional, organized, and relaxed, but he possesses this incredible talent to somehow stay deep in the background of all that is going on, yet he was right there when we needed him and took charge when needed to capture everything we wanted. People said to me multiple times throughout the weekend that that they didn’t know we had a videographer, that they never saw him, or that when they did, they were so surprised because he was so unobtrusive. He’s a cinematography ninja! We haven’t even seen our video yet, but I am so looking forward to the moment when we do. Joel was a dream to work with, we loved every minute of it. We are over the moon that we hired him and even more excited that we hired him for the rehearsal dinner as well. We want to relive our wedding over and over again and know that Joel will give us that gift. We can’t wait for the day that our son or daughter asks to watch it like Teddy’s niece so often requests of her parents. We would highly, highly recommend Joel to anyone considering a videographer for their wedding. Watch a few of his videos and you won’t need any more convincing. Thank you, Joel!
