BrightSpot films was by far one of the BEST vendor that we worked with for our summer 2024 wedding. From the very beginning, Ted and his team were extremely responsive, personable, and professional. We had multiple pre-wedding meetings giving us so much peace of mind knowing that he understood our hopes, vision, and overall theme of our special day. His communication and questions felt very personal ensuring that our content would be special to us as a couple. I was so impressed by his preparation to make this day a success. Ted’s energy is infectious and he made every interaction on our wedding day meaningful. He arrived early and went straight to his great work- taking shots of all the venue and personal details that made our special day unique. Ted introduced himself to my husband and I with the biggest smile and authentically expressed to us that he was excited to enjoy our special day with us- and this energy and disposition continued all night! Ted has a perfect balance of capturing candid interactions and planned clips that felt very natural and so much fun for our entire bridal party. Ted worked wonderfully with our other vendors and his genuine teamwork with them was evident. He was quick to think when a special moment occurred… I swear he captured every single important moment! I even saw him running across the ballroom to make sure he captured a quick but special interaction during our reception. We were so in the moment during our special day and he was beautifully in the background ensuring all of those emotions were captured so we can remember them forever. We truly had so much fun working with him and are thrilled with our choice to hire his company. We will be recommending him to everyone we know engaged in our area. If you are looking for a videographer in the RI/MA area… look no further than bright spot films!! They are the BEST in the business and live up to every expectation that you would hope for to capture the most important day of your life. Thank you, Ted, for your wonderful service! You are appreciated more than we can express.
Lots of love, The Allens 6-26-24
We hired Ted to do our wedding video this past September at OceanCliff in Newport, and it was hands down one of the best decisions we made! He was such a pleasure to work with both leading up to and during our wedding – he had the best attitude and made our big day that much more enjoyable. And most importantly, he did an AMAZING job capturing everything on video. We can’t put into words how perfect both his videos came out, and they were turned around incredibly fast. We are forever grateful for how we will always have Ted’s work to look back on our wedding day. Ted, you’re the best!
We are so so thankful that we worked with Ted for our wedding. Leading up to the wedding, he was responsive and extremely helpful in planning our day-of timeline. On the wedding day, he brought great energy and captured everything we wanted. Our wedding video came out AMAZING. We seriously cannot stop watching it. The inclusion of the drone footage was such a cool added touch. We cannot recommend Ted and his team enough. Best choice you can make for your wedding videographer!
Ted was an absolute pleasure to work with! After a brief discussion about what I wanted captured on my wedding day, he showed up and went right to work! He’s so sweet and kind and truly an expert in his field. He knew exactly what I was looking for, from my table details to every special moment in our day.
He went above and beyond and far exceeded my expectations! He truly brought tears to my husband and I after watching our video. I’m so thrilled to be able to have his timeless work for many years to come. You will not be disappointed!!
Ted and his team at Brightspot Films were absolutely amazing!!! The videos of our wedding were stunning and captured all the special moments. Hiring Brightspot Films 10 days before our wedding was the best decision made! Everything was made so easy during the final days of the preparation to the big day! Thank you Ted for being so accommodating! Highly recommended!
Ted was so wonderful on our wedding day! He made everything so easy and was so professional. When my husband and I received our wedding video we were in tears all over again. Ted was able to captured all our big moments and the things that we missed. He is truly so talented and would definitely recommend!
Ted was an absolute gem! Our video came out amazing & had us in happy tears! He captured our special day beautifully, and highlighted many important parts of the day honoring my mom, who sadly passed before my wedding. We are so happy we will always have this video to look back on! Thank you, Ted for capturing 10-22-2022! We appreciate you & your amazing work.
Ted could not have been a more perfect fit for our wedding. He was friendly, encouraging, and managed to always be there to capture our best moments, but never felt like he was in the way or tried to promote an artificial moment. We had an amazing time working with Ted on our big day. Once we watched our finished video, we nearly started crying, he captured our day so perfectly, all the best moments big and small. We will be watching this video for years to come and we can't gush enough about how happy we are and how much we love our video. If you're looking for a fantastic videographer, look no further!
AMAZING! Ted knocked this experience out of the park! The whole day was a blur and he did a great job of capturing the intimate details and doing so with a great attitude. He fit in like he was in the wedding party himself and we are so thankful we chose him to capture our wedding day. Our families can’t keep replaying the video and can’t wait to share it with their friends. Getting to relive the best day of our lives is something we’ll always have thanks to Teds talent! He has a great eye and the way the video is edited is exceptional. Thanks a million!
Still in awe with how incredible our wedding video came out! Ted was amazing to work with during every stage of wedding planning. We were impressed with his focus and attention to detail filming throughout the wedding day, capturing elements that were important to us. The video perfectly captures the vibe of the day including the emotions and joy of not only us as a couple but of our loved ones. The creative direction of the video was amazing including the editing, quality and music/audio. It has been an absolute joy to re-watch and share with our family and friends. Their reactions watching the video spark memories and stories from our wedding day that will live on forever thanks to Ted's amazing work on our wedding video! 10/10 recommend!!
Ted did such an excellent job as our videographer. He was great to work with in the planning stages, the wedding day itself, and delivered an exceptional product. He is highly recommended!
We hired Ted (Bright Spot Films) as our wedding videographer and could not have been happier with this work! He was engaging and easy to get along with on the day of our wedding, fitting right in throughout the day. His work speaks for itself! Our video is exactly what we were hoping for. It perfectly captures the emotions, the beautiful scenery, and also the fun of our wedding. Initially, we weren't sure if we wanted to spend money on a videographer but I can tell you now that we are absolutely thrilled with the product and SO grateful that we decided to trust Ted with this job. I would recommend him and his work to anyone!
Ted and Brightspot films might just be the Boston-area wedding industry's best kept secret. We had an incredible experience with Ted as our videographer for our May 2022 wedding. My husband and I knew we wanted a videographer to capture our big day, but at first, it was really hard to find one whose artistry/style we loved and was at a reasonable price point in the sea of options on WeddingWire and the Knot. Ted hit both of these criteria out of the park. If you've landed here on Ted's page, look no further. Ted's style is effortless. He is a true artist and storyteller, and a consummate and charismatic professional. On the day of the wedding, he struck the perfect balance between 1) being the most awesome and encouraging best friend, cheering us on throughout the day and 2) being completely unobtrusive, capturing all of the key moments without us even noticing he was there. He partnered really well with our photographer. My favorite memory was when the two of them literally stopped traffic in the middle of a busy street to catch us walking hand in hand under a rainbow. It would be an understatement to say that Ted went above and beyond for our wedding. He was super flexible with timing - arriving quite a bit earlier and staying later than our original "contracted time" at no extra cost when our timeline ran late, just to make sure he would be able to capture all the key moments in the day. He scheduled multiple calls with us leading up to the wedding to understand what was important to us. The final work products are just incredible. My husband and I (and our extended families) must have watched his short social media clip hundreds of times just in the first week after our wedding. It really allowed us to relive all the joyful emotions of the day - which, trust me, you will want to do immediately after the wedding is over! Our longer video had everything we wanted and is a perfect keepsake for years to come. It perfectly captured who we are as people and all the big and little moments that made the day special. Thank you so much for everything Ted and Brightspot films! We can't recommend you enough!
Ted was phenomenal as our videographer. As many other couples say, we were on the fence about hiring a videographer, but we decided to go for it, and we are so so glad that we did. Once we saw the video that Ted created, it just brought everything to life in a way that photos could never do. It was vibrant and captured the vibe of our wedding perfectly. Ted was also just great to work with - really professional, really enthusiastic, and really helpful when some unexpected needs arose and we had to set up a live stream of the ceremony. I have only good things to say about him, and we are absolutely thrilled with the result.
I highly recommend choosing Ted to film your wedding! I can't speak highly enough about him and his professionalism. I (and most of my guests) were impressed by how many different angles Ted was able to capture while going unnoticed during the ceremony and reception. Ted provided us with a full length video with every special moment included and 2 shorter social media clips. The final result is a video we will cherish forever. Thank you, Ted!!
Absolutely recommend!! Ted was so friendly and upbeat! He kept to the timeline we discussed and got all of the shots we requested! Ted was nothing but a pleasure to work with! He made us feel so comfortable being filmed and we had a blast being in his presence!
We contacted Ted about 3 months before our wedding, budget had already been blown and we initially decided to pass on a videographer. My gut told me to pursue evaluating a few options, Ted being one of them. When Ted and I spoke, he was professional and personable, and the price was reasonable - so, we contracted with Ted. I can honestly say Ted was one of the must-haves looking back at our wedding day (along with our wedding planner who was also a must!). Our videos (we hired Ted for a 15 min film and a social media teaser) are beyond incredible - truly next level good. My husband and it regularly, three months the later. Day of, Ted was professional and charismatic. He was punctual and went above and beyond… Ted was as excited as our guests were to be a part of our day - and we had just met him. We could be bias, after all, it was our special day… so check out Ted’s work for yourself!

Ted was amazing! He was professional, punctual, and super easy to work with. We had a pretty clear vision of what we were looking for in a wedding video. He was very attentive in listening to our thoughts and ideas and what he created in the end totally exceeded our expectations. We now have an amazing wedding video that we will be watching and enjoying for the rest of our lives.
Ted and his work partner Jeremy were our wedding videographers last month, and after seeing the video they edited for us I can honestly say they created one of the most beautiful pieces of art I’ve ever seen! The video was a lot longer than they told me they planned on making it as well, which was a huge bonus for us! It truly felt like we got to relive that night all over again. Not only did they shoot with amazing quality, but their attention-to-detail is something like I’ve never seen. They captured every single sentimental moment no matter how brief it was, including examples such as my wife saying “we’re married!” in between a bite of cake, or quickly wiping a tear off each other’s face during our first dance. In addition to them being patient and understanding no matter how many requests or changes we made, they also kept constant communication with us, even within days before and the day of, to ensure that everything was still going as planned. In my opinion they were one of the most “money well spent” vendors we had and I would highly encourage every couple to check them out! Thank you Ted and Jeremy for creating such an amazing memory for us!
Ted was so great to work with! Prior to our wedding he helped us through the process of planning out the video and what to expect on our special day. On the day he was very professional and worked really well with our schedule. He had a drone, a camera he used while walking around and a stationary camera set up. All of these provided all the shots we could ever want! After the day he was extremely quick getting our footage back to us and has been so easy and flexible to work with on edits. We highly reccomend Ted to capture your perfect day!
Bright Spot Films was absolutely incredible. The way they capture your special day is out of this world. We were so happy with the results and they are so fun to work with on our special day. Honored to have had them on our wedding team!
Ted Borgman was our videographer, and he was phenomenal. We are a usually quiet couple, and Ted had no problem easing our nerves and giving us direction- he clearly has a creative eye and mind and told us where to do a slow dance or when to wave with a group of friends-he really had a vision from the moment he was there. His drone filming astounded us and all of our guests. The video was spectacular and a keepsake worth more than every penny. He kept saying how excited he was for certain shots or how he couldn’t wait to edit the footage, and what a fantastic feeling that was to feel his enthusiasm and energy for the work he does.
"Ted worked incredibly hard to capture all of our important moments and we had a lot of them!! He was very professional and friendly. Our wedding guests raved about him. The videos were amazing and captured who we are as people and everything important to us. I highly recommend this company to everyone and cannot wait to work with them again! Thank you so much!"
