ough he got it right the first try!)
Rich was absolutely amazing! From our first contact with him to set up pricing and our date to the finished product was seamless. Every time we wanted something shot or changed for...
our video it was done in a quick matter. He was quick to respond to emails and always willing to jump on a call. We felt like he was more than just a vendor to us but someone who really invested his time in us and our day.
After Rich sent over our wedding footage and highlight reel we were so unbelievably blown away at the amazing job they did capturing all of our favorite moments! The drone footage ...
they got was next level and so cool to have. Even more so we couldn't believe how seamlessly and under the radar they managed to be while capturing everything they did!! We never felt like we were being 'filmed'. Rich and his team were so professional and so fun to be around. We are so lucky to have been able to work with them and have the perfect footage to relive our wedding whenever we want. The first time we watched the video I think i saw my husband crying... THANK YOU RICH & TEAM!!
I was hesitant at first to hire a videographer, but after viewing the results of Rich's work, I could not have been happier! Rich and his team were totally invisible all day and w...
e were amazed (and quite pleased) to see the many fresh and fun new images they captured that amazing day. It was worth every penny and then some. We will cherish this video forever!
Rich and his team were beyond amazing to work with! They met and exceeded all of our expectations! From the moment he arrived at our wedding, I felt at ease. Rich was so easy go...
ing and captured everything we had hoped for. At first we were not sure if we should hire a videographer, but it was one of the best decisions we made. I would recommend him to anyone! We can't thank Rich enough :)
Rich and his second shooter Wade were fantastic! They made my husband and I feel very comfortable and at ease while shooting us (particularly because we can both be a little camera...
shy). I also loved how present Rich was during the reception without getting in our guests' faces or being too noticeable - he struck the perfect balance and it was a pleasure to work with him!
Rich and his colleague at Brand videography produced a beautiful short film of our wedding day for us. They were lovely on the day, extremely subtle yet captured all the best momen...
ts. The use of the drone was brilliant for our West Hollywood roof top late afternoon and evening wedding. It was so special to capture our daughters as flowers girls walking down the aisle and having fun on the day. We are SO glad we decided to go for a videographer and this videographer in particular - it provides the best memories of the day and is fabulous for showing family and friends. I would absolutely recommend Brand videographer to anyone for their wedding.
My husband and I booked Brand Videography based on their awesome reviews from The Knot. Booking was very quick. I emailed Rich (owner of brand videography) and inquired. He replied...
promptly and was very professional. I would say the price is mid-range. All contracts were signed electronically through email.
Unfortunately, about a week before our wedding date, Rich had an emergency and was not able to shoot for our wedding day. Which is totally understandable because life happens. He kept me and my coordinator updated and had another great videographer take over for our wedding.
On the day of our wedding, Rich’s crew came on time. The main videographer, Garrison, was very polite and patient. Garrison and the other two videographers captured all the moments we wanted and included drone footage. We had two separate ceremonies three hours apart including a reception after, but they captured it all.
For the editting process, Rich was incharge of it and we are so grateful to him. I’m sure having two ceremonies made the editting so much more difficult than a typical wedding video but he gave us weekly updates on the progress. The videos are high quality and was shipped through a USB and hard drive.
We love our videos so much. We received an instagram clip, 10 min clip and a full 2hour video. We can’t thank Brand Videography enough for helping us replay our wedding day through the beautiful videos.
Brand went above and beyond to meet the needs for my husband and I. They were super responsive and friendly to work with.
We are so happy that we selected the team at Brand Videography! Rich and his team were incredibly responsive, easy to work with, a pleasure to be around on the day of, and we could...
n't be happier with the final product! We were initially torn on whether we were going to get a video but have already watched it several times and are so happy we have something to capture all of the little details since the day goes by so quickly. Rich and his team stand out in many ways but here are just a few examples--they stayed until the very end of the night, they were really easy to work with and communicate with both before AND after the big day, they paid attention to the little details of our wedding and got a sense of who we were to make the video perfect for us, they were very open to feedback/edits/suggestions (even though we loved it and didn't need any changes). Thank you!!!
Rich, the owner is very professional and quick to reply to any questions you have during the wedding planning process. He was flexible and willing to hear any requests and comments...
we had. One thing I liked in particular is that he lets you choose your own songs. After checking out a few other videographers, this was not the case! The turnaround was also quick, which is always exciting! When our video was delivered, it came packaged in a nice box, which included a flash drive with "Brand" engraved on it. I was really impressed with such a beautiful presentation! You can tell Rich takes pride in his work and my husband and I are forever grateful for this timeless keepsake.
Thank you so much for adding such beautiful drone footage to our wedding coverage. Our wedding video would not be the same without it!!!!! It added all the scope and beauty to our ...
wedding location coverage that was needed. You are the best, and we are so thankful to have had your support in covering our wedding.
After the wedding, you are left with a handful of tangible things to remember the most amazing day of your life. Fortunately for us, one of those things is the video Rich put toget...
her of us, which captured the essence of the evening, the things you can’t put into words - the feelings and emotions. Watching the video, really just brings us right back to it all. Rich and Brand Videography did an amazing job and were super easy to work with. Can’t recommend them highly enough!
My husband and I got married about a month and a half ago and were blown away by Rich and his team. They were so enjoyable to be around and made us laugh the whole night. Rich capt...
ured our evening so perfectly and we were thrilled with the video he cut for us. We literally had zero changes for him. Do yourself a favor and hire Brand photography!

d his team there for my special day. I cannot say enough about the video!! It’s my number one favorite thing- nothing compares to capturing all of those moments, the ones you remember and the ones you actually weren’t aware of unless you have the chance to look back! Best decision ever! This video makes me cry with joy every time I watch it! It’s so beautiful and magical. I cherish it!! Thank you Brand Videography.... from the bottom of my heart.
Brand Videography is excellent and we could not have asked for a better wedding videographer than Rich for our May 2016 Redondo Beach wedding! He was thoughtful and professional t...
hroughout the process, as well as patient. He was very available at every step and got back to us quickly whenever we had any questions. He made sure to capture the important moments of our wedding and crafted very professional and heartwarming videos (both the full length and the highlight videos) for us, listening to our thoughts and wishes each step of the way. He is very personable and we felt comfortable from our very first meeting with him early on in our wedding planning process. We really felt like he listened to our vision for our wedding video and he gave us options for different styles, which we truly appreciated. He was also extremely patient and kind throughout the video editing process and made sure we were very happy with the final product. I am absolutely recommending Rich Brand to all my friends getting married in Southern California who want a fantastic wedding videographer! 5 out of 5 stars!! If I could give him 10 stars, I would!
Rich did an amazing job with our wedding video. Very professional, great personality, and overall a great experience. I have watched my video over and over again! I couldn't have a...

First rate experience and the video was high quality, well edited and captured moments and shots that felt unexpected and unique to our wedding. I love rewatching the video and s...
haring it with friends or family that were unable to attend. One the best decisions to get the video since it offered a prespective I couldn't get as the bride and couldn't be more happy with what was produced!
Rich filmed or wedding in May. He was super easy to communicate with and he totally over delivered on our expectations. We had a small ceremony with our immediate family only. W...
ith the video Richard shot and produced, we were able to share our special day with all of our friends and family. It was perfect and we couldn't be happier!
Professional, unobtrusive and above all else exceptionally talented. Rich has a calm, plesant demeanor and is a joy to have in the mix on such a special day. He goes with the flow ...
but also gets the shots he needs. My wedding video is detailed, thoughtful and a beautiful living memory of an important family day. It's clear that Rich does not use a standard format or copy and paste the style but instead crafts his short film pieces around the couple he is capturing. I was honestly hesitant to book a videography at all and thought I could use the money for other things. Looking back having a videography and far more importantly having Brand Videography as part of my wedding was one of the best decisions I made. (as an aside - spring for the drone footage if you love your venue - the aerial shots are amazing!)
LOVE him! He knows what he is doing and knows how to blend into the crowd to not feel invasive during the big day, yet he still manages to capture the most intimate of moments. And...
he will work endlessly to make sure you have exactly what you want for the final reel/highlight demos, etc. The BEST.
Rich's crew shot our wedding late March this year. We are satisfied with the entire experience from initiation, wedding day to post editing and extra tweaks we wanted. I'd describe...
him and his crew as highly professional and reliable. Definitely recommend.
Rich is INCREDIBLE!!! From our first conversation, I knew I would be putting my trust in a complete professional. He was very easy to connect with right off the bat and definitely ...
went the extra mile for us. Originally, my husband and I weren't sure if we wanted to get a videographer because of our budget, but we are so glad we did. He's worth every penny! I highly recommend choosing Rich. He captured so many beautiful moments from our wedding day and we will both cherish this video forever. Thank you Rich!
Brand Videography delivered everything I had wanted and so much more! Rich and his second videographer blended in with our wedding guests so we never felt as if we were being filme...
d. His prices are reasonable and fair & the end product is exactly what you would want - footage that is filmed and edited to perfection showcasing all of the best parts of your wedding you worked so hard to plan. I would highly recommend him to everyone!!
Rich with Brand Videography was just phenomenal to work with!! He captured every special moment and was so incredible to work with. He went above and beyond when editing our vide...
o and I hope to use Brand Videography with many future events. Our wedding video is best I've seen and I couldn't be happier and more grateful for Rich's time and effort he put into capturing our most special day.
Rich was great every step of the way and we couldn't have asked for a better videographer to work with. He was so receptive to our ideas and preferences and would provide us with h...
is thoughtful insight. Every idea and suggestion that we had was incorporated into our video and exceeded our expectations. We absolutely love our wedding video - Rich has a true artistic eye and seamlessly interwove different scenes from our wedding; skillfully and amazingly incorporated our song preferences; and added awesome special effects - like slowing down certain key scenes and moments in a very subtle way. It's so artistic and we can't stop watching our wedding video thanks to Rich's mastery.
Brand Videography was simply the best decision that we made! Our wedding films came out absolutely amazing! I cannot recommend Rich and his team enough! They made the who proces...
s so easy and fun. Thank you Brand Videography!
My husband and I feel so blessed that we were introduced to Rich of Brand Videography. The moments he captured over several hours during our wedding day are PRICELESS. Rich is prof...
essional, very reasonably priced, knowledgeable, extremely talented, kind, reliable and hard-working. He communicated with us throughout the planning process and responded to calls and emails promptly. He offers unlimited hours and drone footage. He spent countless hours editing our footage and we were brought to tears the first (and every) time we watch the video. This video will be cherished forever. If you have high expectations, want to work with a veteran in the industry, and appreciate excellent customer service, I highly recommend hiring Brand Videography!
We decided on having a videographer last minute due to some changes in our family attendance. Brand videography worked seamlessly with us to figure out s price and package, and wh...
en the highlight real came to us we were mesmerized by not only the artistry of the footage but also the emotions that were captured. I never expected that from a video and am so happy we did it.
Brand Videography is truly professional along with an excellent customer service. Our wedding video speaks for their talents with great personality! The whole team is amazingly pro...
fessional, understanding, very kind and friendly…Rich truly interested in telling our own personal story. We are so excited and satisfied with our decision to go with Brand Videography. The first time we met Rich, he immediately made sure we were comfortable and had what we needed; he seemed to genuinely care about how to capture the best moments of your big day. Case in point, he doesn’t have the hours limit so he can stay to capture the last moment without any extra charge.
To our surprise, his quote was very reasonable if not lower than most other videographers we’ve interviewed. Rich also shipped us the external hard drive and an USB drive free of charge. I was quoted $8 and $10 to have our final DVD shipped to us from 2 other videography vendors on top of hourly charges, I understand it’s all business but the compassion Rich has for his clients earned our business and referrals. We are glad we chose Brand Videography, could not ask for a better videographer to work with!
Also, we absolutely loved the same day edit Rich and his team created for the reception, every single guest at the wedding was in awe of how beautiful it was and how efficient they were with just little time they had. We shared it with everyone who could not make to the wedding and they loved it too! Thanks again Rich, so glad we did a same day edit video!
Last but not least, not only Rich and his team are creative to capture the moments we couldn’t see on our wedding day, but they are also great at picking the songs to go with the video. The whole team made the day comfortable, relaxed, and fun as it should be. Rich and the crew were able to fit right in while making sure to be there for all the important moments! I strongly recommend Brand Videography. Personally, I think his services are worth more than his quote.
Rich and his team were absolutely fantastic!!! We are so in love with our short and full feature films. He captured the day in the best possible way, we are so grateful to have thi...

Rich was recommended to my wife and I by a friend who had hired him for their wedding. We couldn't have been happier. Rich was absolutely wonderful to work with. Easy to work with ...
and affordable. The day of the wedding went so smooth due to his knowledge and professionalism. Our video is spectacular and highly recommend him to anyone who is need of a videographer. Thank you Rich.

Hiring Rich Brand of Brand Videography was one of the best decisions we made when planning my daughter's wedding. We found him to be highly professional and a pleasure to work with...
for the entire 9 hours that he was with us. Our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception were held in 3 different areas of our venue which is not an optimal situation for a videographer, especially on a 100 degree day! But somehow Rich and his team were present for all of the special moments throughout the day, capturing everything we could possibly want to remember about the event. We highly recommend Brand Videography for anyone who wants a top of the line videographer without having to pay the usual high end prices for California vendors. His calming presence and professional demeanor will give you peace of mind and allow you to enjoy every moment of your special day. Even when there were unexpected glitches on my daughter's wedding day, Rich and his Brand Videography team never missed a beat, and continued to make his clients' needs a top priority. As a mother of the bride who planned a wedding from across the country, believe me when I tell you that Brand Videography will be the best choice for you event!
We found Rich of Brand Videography through our wedding planner! At the beginning of our wedding planning we were unsure as to whether or not we wanted a videographer, but both my h...
usband and I can say looking back to that day two weeks ago it was without a doubt one of the best choices we made for our big day! Rich was incredibly easy to work with, showing up early to make sure he got there on time and throughout the day being such a comforting presence! He was incredibly easy to work with as he captured so many moments from our big day and worked so well with our photographer as well! Rich made sure to direct us when we needed it and was always there when there was something important going on so he could get on film! We only got married two weeks ago but we could not be more excited to see how this video turns out and without even having seen it I know it will be incredible thanks to his hard work, dedication to making sure he got everything on film during the happiest day of our lives and comforting demeanor which made my husband and I feel so at ease we almost forgot he was there when filming! As I said before, I know this 100% is one of the best decisions we made for the big day (hiring Brand Videography) and the thing we are most excited is seeing this video so that we can always look back and relieve all he captured of our wedding day!!! Thank you so much Rich, we feel so lucky we found you for our wedding day!!
We weren't planning on even having a videographer but kept hearing that not having video was a big regret from many of our friends. We met with Rich and instantly knew he was the r...
ight guy for us - great sense of humor, easy to get along with and of course, a great eye. He captured the intimate moments beautifully and made the crazy dance party moves even more fun than we remembered. We have only seen our teaser video so far and literally cannot stop watching it. We can't wait for the rest!
As our budget ballooned, as wedding budgets often do, I was having more and more trouble convincing myself I could spend more on a videographer- especially since we would have phot...
ographers covering the whole thing. My planner urged me that I would regret not hiring someone, that there are moments as a bride, you never see- your flower girls walking down the aisle, the way your dad looks at you in when you're not looking, your partner's expression as you walk down the aisle, a million little interactions of all your favorite people that you could never possibly witness because you are SO BUSY! I listened and thought I understood, but still was wary to spend any more documenting our day. Not until I realized my mother in law who lives out of the country would ogle the video and swoon to show all her friends, did I decide that we needed a videographer. Two weeks before the wedding.
Best. Decision. I. Made.
If I didn't have video of the day, I would be terribly sad almost three months later. I can't tell you what an awesome feeling it is to have that link show up in your inbox and be able to breathe in your day with your husband, in bed, and giggle about how fun it was, all the things you forgot, or missed.
The thing no one tells you about hiring your videographer is that you are with them ALL DAY. More so than your new husband or wife, more so than your parents, ALL DAY. Which is why it's so important to hire someone who is not only talented, creative, and has an eye for making a movie, but someone fun. and cool. and laid back. and easy going. I cannot say enough about Rich, he got along with everyone, captured moments I never knew he was even there for because he was so sincere about not interfering with the moments as they were happening but rather preserving them for years to come.
After the wedding he asked our opinions on songs to include to make it that much more personalized and lo and behold when I saw the first cut I just sat in awe of how incredible it was to rewind through our day.
Rich put up with a bride two weeks out from her wedding day hiring him at the last minute with grace and humor. He was a silent observer, getting shots I had no idea were possible without us ever knowing, he was fun to be with, asked nothing of us, and gave us the world. I could not recommend Brand Videography enough and if I could tell brides anything it would be HIRE A VIDEOGRAPHER! HIRE RICH! (Your mother in law will thank you)!
I've worked many times with Rich. I love his energy and his team. He always does an amazing job capturing the wedding day and works great together with the photography (me). I know...
the bride and groom are always happy.
Brand videography was great! very professional and I love their work!
Rich Brand was so sweet, honest and most importantly - he honored all of my requests, which I'm sure wasn't easy.
It was a huge debacle between my husband and myself to have a v...
ideographer - I wanted it SO bad, and my husband did not want one at ALL. My husband hates attention, taking pictures, etc. so I asked if we could get a still get a great video without it being all "in your face" throughout the whole wedding day/night. Rich got every moment I wanted without even knowing he was there. He is like a NINJA! This made my husband so much more at ease to know he wasn't being followed around like some videographers do. The best part is, is Rich UNDERSTOOD how my husband felt, so he made sure to make him feel comfortable and did i mention that he is a NINJA?! Blew my mind at what a great video we got when I barely even saw Rich, honestly felt like he wasn't even there - like a fly on the wall.
It made me so happy to know we will have our wedding video forever so we can watch it whenever we want. It's important to see what really goes on at your wedding because there is so much you can miss - luckily this video captures it all. Couldn't be happier with it - I still tear up everytime I watch it.
LOVE IT-
Thank you Rich Brand!!
Love,
The Rados'
The great thing about Brand Videography is that you are able to enjoy your day not thinking about the video cameras being in your face.
t was like he wasn't there!! He manage...
d to appear as if he wasn't there the day of, but also managed to capture the best parts of our special day for us. I highly recommend Brand Videography for any wedding!!

d Brand was good to his word and provided a excellent memorable video that captured the entire day. Did not charge by the hour, he and his crew give you the entire day focused only on your venue, they are extremely friendly and professional. All Brand's videography and photography equipment is state of the art. Brand Photography captured every angel and every moment and over-passed any expectations. A+ 100% satisfied groom and bride. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
I am very happy with everything about Brand videography. Rich was professional and listened to my ideas while at the same time knowing all the great shots to get. He made us a 15 m...
inute highlight reel as well as a 45 minute full video and I'm obsessed with them both. He's reasonably priced and does amazing work. I would recommend him to everyone.
If you're looking for a great videographer, look no further. I can't believe how wonderfully he had cut and edited our video. Our wedding was far from organized and many things whe...
re everywhere. He made everything look amazing and our venue absolutely dreamy. He knows how to accentuate the best parts of every part and it will leave you with the rosiest rose colored glasses. MAGIC! You are a magician Rich. We love you!
My wedding was in August 2014. Brand videography actually wasn't my first choice but I didn't find him in my original search either. When my first choice did not work out and my we...
dding was only a month away, I luckily found Brand videography. Because I was a nervous bride, he came out to meet with me at work. I find that meeting with my vendors is the best way to gauge them. He was reassuring and calm, something I needed.
On the day of the wedding, his assistant got there first and he showed up shortly after. I think he offers a great service since it's rare to find a videographer to offer 2 of them and unlimited time. He did my highlight and full length video. When I had requests for music or to tweak the audio, he was more than willing to do exactly what I asked. I couldn't be happier with his work and I'm so happy that my first choice didn't work out because if it didn't, I would have never met Rich. He worked well with my photographer and got great shots. I'm happy to recommend him.
We are so glad that we hired Rich to shoot our wedding video. Honestly, we had not planned on hiring a wedding videographer because we were already way over budget, but we liked Ri...
ch's videos on this site and decided to set up a meeting up. After talking to Rich for only a few minutes, we decided to go for it. It was the one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Rich got so many great shots and edited an amazing video! You definitely get great value when you hire Rich and we are so glad that we fit Rich into our budget. Worth every penny......
Rich is an amazing wedding videographer! Rich was very professional and worked really well with our families and guests. He has a way of getting all the great shots, but you reall...
y didn't notice him even being there and getting those great shots. Our wedding video captured everything that was special about our day and more! Rich found a way to capture everything we love about the venue and the location without us having to tell him. Our wedding day was so much fun and happened so fast, we are glad that Rich was able to capture all of those special moments for us. Thanks Rich!
