Hey there! My name is Reid and I’m the owner and operator of Best Made Videos®, a recent (I’m very proud to say) award-winning wedding videography and video production company based in West Seattle, WA. I graduated from Gonzaga University with a degree in Broadcast Journalism in 2008 and after working in local TV news for 6 years both here in Seattle and down in Bakersfield, CA I decided to step away from news and start my own video production company. Never originally envisioning myself as a “wedding videographer” I’ve now completed over 400 weddings for happy couples throughout the area!

My husband and I got married on September 7th, 2024. A week and a half before our wedding day, our videographer had to cancel on us due to a family emergency. We knew that having a wedding video was not necessarily a necessity, but it was something we really, really wanted to remember our day forever. By August 31st, just one week before our wedding we got linked up with Reid by a crazy chain of connections through family friends and social media. Reid was game and ready to save the day!! Which he absolutely did.
I truly believe Reid is always who was meant to video our wedding. He showed up more than prepared, with lots of energy, and captured our day perfectly. He met every need we asked of him on such a short time frame. The turn around time for him delivering video was so impressive. You can tell that this is a passion of his and something he loves doing- it is evident in the work he produces. Everyone we show our video to is so impressed and we are so beyond happy with the outcome. It is something that we will watch forever and get to show our kids and grandkids in the many years to come.
We cannot thank Reid enough for saving the day and showing up for us. We would 1000% recommend him to any couples planning their wedding and looking for a videographer.

Reid with Best Made Videos far exceeded our expectations. He was communicative and thorough from the beginning, consistently available via email and very responsive. On the day of our wedding, we were so pleased by his natural ease of working with our photographer and other vendors and family seamlessly and also providing us direction and guidance without issue. He really cared about how myself and my husband were doing throughout the day and took some beautiful images and videos. Would recommend him to anyone needing videography services. His turnaround time for our videos was shockingly fast and his work is beautiful. We’re so happy we booked with him to keep these memories for a lifetime!

Reid was wonderful to work with throughout the entire process and perfectly captured our special day. He is a great communicator, professional, and created something we will cherish forever. Having never worked with a videographer before, we didn't know what to expect. Reid seamlessly worked alongside our photographers while never making us feel self-conscious that we were on camera. We really can't recommend Reid and Best Made Videos enough. Thank you so much!!!

Reid was super professional and captured all of our key moments despite have a very long a complicated day (Indian ceremony in the morning, western style ceremony in the evening, and Slovak ceremony at night). He ended up coordinating with our photographer ahead of the wedding day which was a pleasant surprise and the two of them worked together to make all our photo+video needs go smoothly. He would often go above and beyond, such as jumping in during family photos to manage guests, and help make sure everyone was smiling and not in the way. We had multiple guests point out what a great energy Reid brought to the whole day! His turn around time for our videos were super quick, and being able to have a full recording of our ceremonies to share with family abroad was amazing. He was also super communicative leading up to, during, and after the wedding so we knew exactly what to expect. Don’t hesitate to book Reid, you really won’t regret it!

I am so happy I decided to have a videographer to film our special day but even happier it was Reid/Best Made Videos. He was so nice from beginning to end and I really appreciated how flexible and easy going he was throughout the entire process. He listened to what we wanted and made sure it happened. Reid was there to catch every special moment on film, from the small moments to the big. We love how he edited the end video, it was better than we even imagined. We are so happy with it and love showing it off! All my friends and family are so impressed. It’s such a special keepsake from the most important day of your life. Thank you so much Reid for making our happily ever after a memory to last forever.

Reid was great to work with throughout the process of our wedding and made our special day stress free and magical! He made the whole process very easy by providing transparent pricing during the initial discussion, prompt communication throughout the planning process, and amazing experience on the day of. He had a detailed questionnaire that prompted us to talk through things we hadn’t thought about in terms of things we wanted to capture for the video. On the day of, he arrived early and had everything all setup while we were still getting ready. He worked seamlessly well with our photographer (who was directing all the shots) and made it feel like he wasn’t even there while still being able to capture everything that was on our list. Reid finished the video within a week after the wedding and the product was amazing and captured everything that was on our list! We would highly recommend Reid for your wedding photographer!

Reid captured the moments that we will be able to revisit forever. At first we were unsure of the expense of a videographer, and our wedding planners advised us to proceed, as we would value hearing the sounds of our loved ones voices for years to come. It was then obvious we should proceed with Best Made Videos.
Reid is professional, and has clearly been doing this work for a long time. Prior to the wedding, he was thorough in his survey about what kind of music we wanted associated with the video, who we should be seen with, and prioritizing which scenes to capture - and he delivered!
Reid was also careful to capture what mattered while staying in the background so our guests could be natural. We love the drone footage of our scenic venue captured before the event, and transitions and sound quality of the video are exceptional.

Reid from Best Made Videos was so great to work with. He was super responsive with all communication throughout the wedding planning process. He has a really thorough questionnaire that he sends to his couples prior to the wedding to get a sense of what was important to us and what we wanted him to capture and prioritize about our wedding day. He was fun to work with on our wedding day and was able to capture the essence of our wedding with a beautiful, well-made product that we will cherish forever. We got to pick our own music, and once we did that, the turnaround for getting our video was super quick. We would highly recommend him to our family and friends looking for an awesome videographer!

Reid was the perfect videographer for our wedding. From getting to know what was important to us, to the final video reels, everything was personalized and stress free. The videos featured great footage of us and our guests. Reid captured all of our toasts and our ceremony in great detail. Our highlight reel included everything we asked for and more; we had great shots of ourselves and our guests at the reception. The videos captured all the unique touches that we put into our wedding and really highlighted the venue for both the ceremony and the reception. We also did a live stream of our wedding for those who couldn’t make it, and the quality was perfect. There was nothing more we could have asked for in a videographer for our wedding day and we would strongly recommend Reid to anyone looking for someone to record footage of their big day.

We were referred to Best Made Videos by our wedding planners. We spent $2,070 for a ceremony live stream and a video guest book. Leading up to our wedding Reid was HANDS DOWN our favorite vendor. He was flexible in working with us on our contract scope, incredibly responsive over email, and had very helpful suggestions along the way. The day of our wedding we even told him he was our favorite vendor because he’s just so darn nice and easy to work with.
Because I really like Reid, I sincerely wish I could say we were happy with the quality of the videos. Unfortunately, that’s just not the case. For the ceremony live stream, there were two big issues: 1) live stream camera angles that highlighted the parking lot rather than the gorgeous greenhouse, trees, or the canal and 2) turning the groom's mic on too soon so that private conversations were live streamed.
For the video guest book, it did not look professional AT ALL. The entries had poor lighting, inconsistent audio, and an ugly background. The video guest book was supposed to have a background in front of a large window with trees and the canal as the backdrop. This information was sent to Reid from our wedding planners 11 days before the wedding. Unfortunately, on our wedding day of there was a miscommunication and Reid set up in a poorly lit corner that prominently featured the parking lot, the thermostat, and the fire alarm. I know that this was only partially his fault (my understanding is that our planners screwed up and directed him to set up there), but it was a huge disappointment and we wish he would have spoken up and adhered to our original game plan. In addition to the lighting and the ugly background, during some of the video guest book entries you can see the videographer adjusting the microphone stand. There were also several audio issues where the microphone (provided by Best Made Videos) appears to cut out halfway through the video entry.
In summary, as much as Reid is the nicest guy and I sincerely wish him the best, I would never trust him to capture once-in-a-lifetime video memories again.

Thanks very much for taking the time to leave a review, it was a very memorable day and I’...
m glad that we could be a part of it.
I’m so sorry to hear your dissatisfaction with your wedding video and livestream, I wish that you would have let me know your issues ahead of time so I could have help address these personally.
Your venue necessitates the ceremony livestream to be set up in that way, that is the way we always stream there and is the same way we were set up in the example video I believe I sent you guys prior to booking. I absolutely understand your valid concerns but unfortunately we don’t have a better option, the canal based on location and lighting isn’t really visible from either streaming angle.
As for the guest book, that is where we were directed to be set up by your planner, we also showed you the setup while we were getting ready so if we weren’t in the correct spot, I would have hoped that you would have let us know, I do apologize.
A couple of the guests, I believe, partially disconnected the audio cable from the microphone while they were speaking, which was very much an issue during the video guestbook, and could certainly partially be blamed on equipment malfunction.
As for turning on the microphones too early, I really don’t have any recollection of that I apologize. I know there was some confusion about exactly getting everybody down the aisle alongside your officiant on time, but I don’t believe I intentionally had anything turned too early, it certainly wouldn’t be anything intentional on my end to try the air or broadcast anything that was meant to be private.
As I said, at the top, I really appreciate you guys, allowing us to help capture day, and certainly wish that you would have been more satisfied with the service. Let me know if there’s anything else I can help you guys with, thanks again to take care!

We had a large wedding with 240 people attending at multiple sites throughout Seattle and Best Made Video did an amazing job! Reid was incredibly responsive, attentive to detail, and fun throughout the process. From our first inquiry, to special requests after our wedding, he was always very patient and quick to help us understand our options. Their detailed survey helped us figure out what we wanted to capture and how we wanted to remember our wedding day. We didn't want people to feel like they were being followed around, so we were relieved that Reid was very engaged, but low key, and quick to make our family and friends feel comfortable. Being a gay couple, we also wanted to make sure our vendors (especially photographer and videographer) didn't make heteronormative assumptions or asks of us. Reid was completely inclusive and didn't make us feel at all like we had to play the roles of "bride" and "groom". After the wedding, the turnaround was very quick - only a couple of weeks to get our highlights video, full ceremony, and raw footage. When we asked for a special customized edit of some of the clips, Reid turned it around in a week during peak wedding season. We would definitely recommend Best Made Video for your videography needs.

We hired Reid very last minute as a videographer for our wedding and it was by far one of the best choices we made. We had originally hired another vendor and had some concerning interactions with them and needed to find a new videographer asap. Reid came highly recommended and by some miracle was available on our day!
He was professional, organized and a breeze to work with! And of course, our video turned out amazing and he had it to us in record time! We are so happy we have a lifelong moments of our special day. We highly recommend Reid for your video needs!!

Reid and his team at Best Made Videos were wonderful and we are very happy we hired them for our wedding. Reid wins by a landslide for quickest vendor to respond in email; he is lighting fast! He did an outstanding job on our wedding video. I wanted specific parts of the toasts to be included, but couldn’t remember the exact. He read my mind and used exactly what I would have picked. In addition to the highlight video, he included the full ceremony and toasts as well as dances and other parts throughout the day. He worked well with our photographer, Joanna Monger - they were a great team!

Matt did an amazing job at our wedding and worked very well in partnership with our photo team. My fiancé and I didn't want a videographer originally because we are both camera shy and thought it would distract from the day and make us uncomfortable, but our parents insisted. Having Matt and the team there was the best thing we would have ever asked for. They made it a comfortable experience and we even forgot for most of the day that the camera was even there. We got a video back very quickly, it was fun to come home from our honeymoon and be able to watch it and reflect on the week we had. I highly recommend Best Made Videos for your wedding.

Reid is awesome! We hired him to live stream our wedding since we had a lot of family out of state and it was important to me we had a reliable stream. He sent me a YouTube link weeks in advance so everyone was well prepared and I was instantly able to watch the stream after, which was SO nice to watch the next day over breakfast. It was shot beautifully and the audio is so clear… I wasn’t sure it would be worth the money but it really was. Couldn’t recommend enough!

My now husband and I hired Best Made Videos to not simply video tape our wedding, but stream it for everyone that couldn't attend; especially my family in India. We only had one formal meeting with Reid and Best Made Videos, but the amount of detail and information he got from us about what we wanted for our wedding stream was fantastic. It was really clear how particular he was going to be on our behalf. He was equally particular about informing us of the cost and procedure of everything, as well as what else we were going to get for our money, which included a full hard drive of the entire recording. All things considered, Reid and his team probably ended up being the least stressful part of our wedding day, and the stream looked AMAZING. Watching it back, we got every angle we asked for, and might've been a better watching experience than being there in person. Even in a moment of panic, when we experienced a power surge and the stream cut out for a minute, the Best Made Videos team acted quietly and efficiently to sort things out, and get us up and running again. Everyone that watched only had good things to say, and I couldn't recommend Reid and Best Made Videos more highly.

Reid and his team are extremely professional and friendly. They put our entire wedding party at ease and helped make the whole process fun. He and his team worked and coordinated very well with all of our other vendors. Reid was willing to step in and lend a hand wherever we needed – he even helped hang our piñata! He setup and maintained the livestream, which made it so easy on our end. It was so special with our pared down wedding – everyone that wasn’t able to attend really felt included. We love our wedding highlights video so much, and we (and our family/friends) have watched it over and over! We can’t recommend Reid enough and look forward to hiring him next time we need a videographer.

Wow. Wow. Wow. Reid and Matt with Best Made Videos completely blew us away! We hired them before the Covid-19 pandemic and ended up having to change our date multiple times due to rescheduling. Reid was responsive and extremely flexible. Fast forward to our wedding day on 7/24/2021 when we met them face to face for the first time. As I was stressing out about the timeline, Reid was able to keep me calm. They captured every important event at the wedding, but managed to do it in a way where all of our guests could still see. Reid had an extremely fast turn around on the highlight video and it was absolutely perfect. My family and I had happy tears through the entire thing and I've probably watched it 10 times already. We are so happy we hired Best Made Videos to capture our special day.

With my family not able to make it to my own wedding because of the pandemic, livestreaming to them was very important to me. Reid organized our live stream with only a couple of weeks notice and made it easy.
Here's what my brother and remote best man had to say of watching on the livestream:
" It was really well run - clear picture, sounds, multiple angles. It did take the edge off missing out."

The last vendor we chose was Best Made Video because we weren't sure whether we wanted a videographer. After viewing some of their work online, we decided to get a videographer and go with Best Made. We definitely made the right choice! Reid was always responsive and flexible when we had to postpone due to COVID-19. They were on time and the quality of the video was amazing. The highlight video was very well put together. They were particularly able to capture the emotion of the moment when the barbershop quartet performed, as it was requested by my wife's father before he passed away. Needless to say we are very happy that we decided to get a videographer and highly recommend Best Made to be your videographer as well!

I found Best Made Videos very last minute, and received a response from Reid within hours of my inquiry letting me know his team was available. Reid was a dream to work with and turned our video around very quickly. Our video is something I will absolutely cherish for the rest of our lives, and I am so happy I get to send it out to all of our friends and relatives who weren't able to make it due to Covid. I highly recommend working with this company!

Reid and his team were wonderful to work with from the start. Reid checked on me more than any of my vendors (and preparing for a pandemic wedding this gave me so much confidence in them even before the big day). My wedding day was horribly planned chaos, with half of the trinkets that needed to be filmed lost, yet Reid and the team rolled with the punches and truly added a calm demeanor to an already stressful day. Pricing was excellent, especially for how involved this company is. The video and audio came out perfect. They had my videos back fast too! I highly recommend Best Made Videos to anyone looking for stress-free videography. Having worked with Reid now, I want to assure anyone looking to book Best Made that he will go above and beyond to make his customers happy. Knowledgeable, experienced, BMVs will not disappoint.

My wife and I cannot recommend Best Made Videos enough! We did not initially plan on hiring a videographer for our wedding. However, COVID-19 happened, and months-and-months of wedding planning was turned on its head. A couple of weeks before our wedding we made the painful decision to significantly downsize the event. Our 150+ person wedding was now down to 30. Meaning, many loved ones would no longer be able to share in our wedding day.
That is when we contacted Reid. During our first conversation, Reid demonstrated empathy and a willingness to get to work on our behalf. Within days, he scheduled a Zoom meeting to get to know us and what we wanted help with. Of primary importance, was live steaming the event so grandparents, aunts/uncles and friends could share in our special day in real-time. Reid confidently assured us he could make this happen, which took so much pressure off my wife and me.
Fast-forward to our wedding day. Reid, and his assistant, were very timely and professional. They were inconspicuous as they set up their equipment and in no time, our wedding was being live streamed on YouTube for our friends and family who were not able to be there with us in person. By all accounts, the live stream worked perfectly. Family and friends were able to see and hear the ceremony without a hitch. Moreover, my wife and I barely even noticed them during the ceremony. They were very discrete.
Reid also recorded the entire ceremony, reception, toasts, etc. He created a fabulous highlight video and provided raw footage that we will be able to relive for years to come.
Thank you so much for everything, Reid. I hope more and more people use your services in the future. I cannot imagine they will regret it.

Best Made Videos is your choice for wedding event. We did the whole event online and it was live. Reid was a pleasure to work with though the process. Our wedding was challenging to put together due to limitations on gatherings, we had a private ceremony couple weeks prior to the event outdoors. Reid captured it with stills and video. His editing was top notchfor the live event. All of the guests that we invited had rave reviews for the content and presentation! I can recommend + you will be glad you selected Best Made Video.

Hiring a videographer for our wedding day was a nonnegotiable for us. We absolutely needed to have some of our most important and treasured memories on tape. Another non negotiable was that Reid and Best Made Videos would be the one to capture our big day. Reid is a true professional and he checks all the boxes of what it takes to perfectly execute: his response time is immediate, he knows exactly what he is doing because he has loads of experience, he is confident in his work, he is a well-respected member of the wedding industry, he is flexible, a great communicator – need I continue? Above all else, Reid truly cares about the couples he works with, their individual needs, and ensuring he delivers a product they will love; I know this because it was my experience in working with Reid. Your wedding day is unlike any other day, that’s why it is so so so important to hire someone like Reid to perfectly capture your most valued and cherished memories. Thank you so much Reid for all your hard work and everything you did for us!

Reid was FANTASTIC! We hired him to livestream our small wedding (thanks, COVID-19!) to our family and friends and we are so glad we had his professional touch. He made sure the elements we had, like a slideshow and a remote Maid of Honor doing a reading, flowed perfectly with the livestream and the wedding overall. All the folx viewing remotely commented on the quality of the stream (two cameras, he worked with the DJ to have a mic set up) and how they felt they were there with us. I would HIGHLY recommend working with Reid, it was a pleasure and now I have the video of our big day to keep forever!

When it comes to wedding day, Reid and his team are punctual, professional, detail-oriented, but most importantly fun to work with. What we love best is how quick he is in editing and returning a high-quality wedding film and we love each and every one of them.

We had a great experience with Best Made Videos! This review is long overdue but we got married 7/2019 and had a great experience with Reid and his team. From my initial contact with Reid he was very responsive and made sure to touch base with us throughout the planning process to make sure we were on track. On the actual wedding day we had such a great time - endless laughs and helped to put us at ease on our big day! The edited highlight reel was wonderful and really captured the spirit of the day. One of the things that I appreciated the most about Best Made Videos was that we received ALL of the video that was shot that day. This was absolutely priceless to get to look back on so many moments- especially some amazing dance floor videos!

Last minute we booked Reid and company to capture our wedding. Let’s just say that we are overjoyed by the results! We now have a wedding video (that we’ve watched easily 20 times already) which captures the essence of what our celebration of marriage was. The whole big day can be a huge blur, thus, a bit hard to remember all those juicy details you worked so diligently to plan. In retrospect we couldn’t be more happy with how our experience with Best Made Videos transpired. Thanks again :)

Watching the video products created is like re-living the big day! Very easy to work with and you could tell Reid put in the preparation in order to deliver on what was promised. He was very responsive, flexible, and solution oriented. Would recommend to anyone who is looking for a videographer.

We are very happy that we chose Best Made Videos for our wedding! Communication was a breeze before the wedding, he captured everything that we wanted, and delivered the videos so incredibly quickly - we were still on our honeymoon! We absolutely love our highlight video and are so happy with Reid's unique style that perfectly captured the vibe we were going for. He seemed like a great guy when we met on the wedding day (even showed up a little early!), but we didn't interact much at all, which is exactly what we want from a videographer...film everything perfectly without being intrusive or drawing attention :). We would highly recommend Reid to anyone!

What is there to say about Best Made Videos....well to start, let’s just say that they’re simply AWESOME AND AMAZING. When my husband and I were looking for a videographer for our wedding, we had reached out to Reid and Best Made Videos due to a a plethora of recommendations that we had received. From the moment that we sent Reid an email, he was oh so responsive and that was something that we really appreciated. Communication with Reid was very easy and he was very helpful with answering our questions! On the wedding day, Reid and his team were there right on time, if not earlier than expected and ready to shoot our wedding. We received our video about a week later and it was beautifully put together! Reid and Best Made Videos have been wonderful to work with and we recommend them to everyone! Book them! You don’t be disappointed!!

I've had the pleasure of meeting Reid and his team during the Seattle wedding show last January. Since our first conversations I knew I would be in great hands. He was very communicative, detailed on what I should expect, and professional. On our wedding day he had a team of 3 come and capture every special part of the wedding. Within a few weeks we had our video completed and sent to us with a link we could share to whomever we wanted. It was a great video and captured perfectly! We highly recommend Reid and his team.

After I got engaged to my now husband, so many people told me to hire a videographer to capture our wedding day; this was the best advice we could have taken! Hiring Best Made Videos was the best choice we made though! Reid was absolutely amazing in capturing the whole day, from every angle. We had an outdoor wedding in the a forested area, and Reid did amazing in capturing all of the backdrops we were fortunate enough to have.
My husband and I enjoy watching all of the footage from our special day together and laughing at all of the little moments we missed when the camera was rolling and we will always cherish the memories we are able to have forever!!

Extremely Satisfied
We found Reid and Best Made Videos online after reading glowing reviews, and our experience was equally positive. Reid was happy to come to our house for a brief in-person meeting, and filled us in on all the details. Throughout the whole process, Reid was extremely responsive to emails, answering any questions we had promptly.
Reid kept in close contact with us in the week leading up to the wedding, including doing a walkthrough of our venue with us and our photographer. This was important to us and made us feel at ease about the videography, amidst all the stress and chaos which comes the week before your wedding.
Himself and his assistant came to the houses in which my wife and I were getting ready, and got some great footage early on. At the venue, they coordinated very well with our photographers, and got excellent footage, without it ever feeling like they were getting in the way.
We took a little long to select the music for our video, but there was no pressure to get this done faster, and once we had selected some songs, the final edits were ready very quickly. We were thrilled with the results. We loved the artistic flair in our highlights video, which included a hilarious blooper reel of myself and my best man attempting, and mostly failing, to tie our ties when getting ready.
We would absolutely recommend Reid and BMV to anyone looking to hire a videographer for their wedding.

We weren't planning on hiring a videographer but ran across Reid's videos on youtube and really enjoyed his style. We made the right decision in hiring him. He is very responsive and informative. We scheduled an initial phone consultation and ended up booking Reid for our wedding.
Close to the day of, Reid made sure to follow up with us several times. This put us at ease. Reid promptly showed up at the venue with his 2nd videographer, Joel and introduced himself. He was like an old friend. Reid is professional, easy to talk to, work with, and has a wonderful sense of humor. Not to mention, he worked quite well with our photographers.
We were very surprised at the quick turnaround with all the videos. We really enjoyed the highlight, the longer video, and the ability to download snippets of all the videos he took. There were so many little events we didn't see or notice. Photos of our special day are one thing but adding video really captures the day.
Reid is active on his social media accounts. I highly recommend following him on his Instagram because it's amusing to watch him journal the day's events leading up to our wedding -- from him getting gas, to coffee, to the traffic he dealt with, etc. I highly recommend Reid!
