We almost didn't get a videographer and Blacksmith Media group was really responsive and clear when checking out different service options. We got the video back and it is such a perfect representation of the day and all the small moments. We are SO grateful to Blacksmith Media and how smoothly everything went with minimal effort from us!
Stop looking, you just found your videographer! I cannot recommend Bransyn and Lauren enough. Our video has me crying my eyes out every time I watch it. Having a video made wasn’t originally something I cared very much about, but I am so glad I did it because it just helps me re-live the day over and over again, and it really brings together all the special moments in a way the photos just can’t. BMG was very reasonably priced, a lot less than some of these giant videography companies, and I feel like Bransyn made a much more personal video. Bransyn made a great compilation video and then we also got individual videos of the entire ceremony and each of the speeches. We also paid a small extra fee for the raw footage which was nice too! They do have a military discount as well! Bransyn is very easy-going and he just kind of slips into the background on your wedding day- I didn’t even notice he was there! Very easy to book and didn’t really require any coordination beforehand, which made things very simple. I just gave him the contact info for my photographer and church coordinator, and he took care of the rest. I am so happy we went with Bransyn, and I am so thankful we have such a beautiful video of our day.
Blacksmith Media Group did a fantastic job recording my son's wedding! The videographer (Kurt) worked nonstop to film all of the special moments of the day. The videos (cinematic cut and social media cut) were both beautifully and artistically edited to recreate the emotions of the day. The cinematic cut brought tears to our eyes, and the social media cut was perfect for sharing highlights on Facebook. My daughter-in-law also wanted to add the raw footage to the package, and it was well worth it. I spent hours watching it and seeing moments that I would have otherwise missed.
Any questions?
Blacksmith Media Group just sent back our wedding video and we are obsessed!! Bransyn was punctual on wedding day and was awesome to work with. We got to stay in the moment and enjoy our day while he captured the most beautiful shots. Delivery and quality of work is amazing and I would recommend him to everyone I know!!
Blacksmith Media Group knocked it out of the park with our wedding videography. Videography was one of the items my husband and I put into the "nice to have" category, but with the Blacksmith Media Group in charge it is a MUST HAVE. We are so happy to have our video to look back on for years to come. The best part? They get to catch the moments even you miss because as everyone says - the day does go by soooo fast. If you are pondering hiring the Blacksmith Media Group. Ponder no longer! They are the BEST!
My husband and I were lucky enough to work with Bransyn and Lauren for our wedding video, and we'll never run out of good things to say about the experience. They are such sweet people
and were so helpful and patient with all of our questions beforehand, and Bransyn was so fun to work with the day of. On top of that, the video is absolutely phenomenal. We've watched it countless times and were ecstatic to share it with our family and friends. It's so special to have that recap of the day to look back on forever, and Bransyn captured it so beautifully and thoughtfully and really picked out the best moments for us to reminisce on. He made our wedding look like something out of a fairytale. We couldn't be more grateful for the work Blacksmith Media Group did for us. They are truly incredible!

Everything from scheduling and paying to our finished video went absolutely perfect. Lauren and Bransyn were such a pleasure to work with and were extremely accommodating and professional. I would highly recommend Blacksmith Media Group for your videographer needs, you will not be disappointed!
The whole experience was great with Blacksmith Media Group! You can't go wrong with them, our wedding video turned out beautiful and overall we were very pleased. I will definitely be recommending them to all my friends getting married!
Blacksmith Media Group is the real deal!! Bransyn was so great throughout the whole planning process and truly cared about making our video perfect. He responds to emails within the same day and takes his time making sure he doesn't miss any details. He captured every detail of our day so beautifully and created a video that we will cherish forever. 10/10 and the best videographer we could have asked for!!!!

Thank you for the kind words Brittany! We are so happy that you loved your video. It was truly a pleasure working with you. Thank you for trusting us to capture your special day.
Great experience! Blacksmith Media was very responsive to emails and texts, their pricing was good and their finished product was everything we hoped it would be. They worked closely with our wedding director's schedule, were open to suggestions and provided a few suggestions of their own. We particularly enjoyed the scenes filmed with the drone! They captured my daughter's wedding day beautifully! Their turnaround time to prepare the media clips and the video was quick - less than two weeks after the wedding. I would very much recommend them to anyone planning a wedding. We would certainly use them again if the opportunity arose.
Blacksmith Media Group is absolutely the best! Their professional, personable, and quality services is unprecedented. Prior to the wedding, I explained exactly what I was looking for as a final product and they nailed it. They worked with the DJ to ensure audio was tied into their equipment and captured every moment desired. Unlike some of the vendors, they didn't need any "managing".
You won't make a better decision chosing Blacksmith Media Group!
Bransyn is the best. He’s a cool cat and seemed to be everywhere at our wedding, without being noticed. The final product is better than we could have ever imagined. We watch it multiple times a day. He just captured the day so perfectly. Book him, you won’t regret it.
