It was a pleasure to work with Lauren and Clint!! They were super friendly and communicative, which was especially nice since we had to postpone our wedding due to COVID-19-related restrictions. They were timely in getting us a sneak peek - less than a week after our wedding - and also our full length film + raw footage of the ceremony, speeches, and my brother singing at the reception. My husband and I love our film SO much and have already watched it multiple times...so have many of our friends and family! Lauren and Clint captured all of the special moments. A key reason why I chose them was their film strike a beautiful thematic balance - they are sweet and romantic, but also upbeat and fun. I would HIGHLY recommend!
We could not be any happier with Candlelight Films! Clint and Lauren made our day so fun and the quality of the video that we received is unmatched. Friends and family members have not stopped sharing the video that we received - everyone loves it!
When they say "Best of the Best," THEY MEAN IT!! Clint and his partner were SOOOO fun to work with!! I loved their energy, it was contagious and FUN! Jerry and I both couldn't be happier with our pick for our videographer and I would recommend them in a heartbeat for any event you want recorded! They are down to earth and captured our day beautifully! I asked them to incorporate bloopers and they said SURE, no one asks us to do that!? HA....they also created a beautiful sneak that had everyone smiling and in tears afterwards. My favorite part is getting to see what I didn't get to see the day of! How amazing is that, I get to relive the day and live the day for the first time through his video! Thank you Candlelight Films for everything!
We loved our sneak peek video from our wedding that Candlelight did! They captured our big day perfectly and we highly recommend them!!
Awesome, awesome, awesome. Clint and Meredith were super easy to work with and were extremely accommodating. They had our "sneak peak" video to us within a few days and the video looked AMAZING. They captured the details, the vibe and the love of the big day. Worth every penny.
Clint and Meredith were an absolute pleasure to work with - they are both so sweet! Clint met with us before the wedding to go over all the details and made sure to take note of all our preferences when it came to music, specific shots we wanted to make sure to get, etc. And, WOW, let me tell you, the films they make are always absolutely gorgeous. They all look like they're straight out of a romantic movie! I haven't seen the final wedding film yet, but I am absolutely in LOVE with the sneak peek they put together for us. My mom shows it to everyone she can (including many strangers haha!) and so far, not one person manages to get through it without tearing up. Everyone who watches it exclaims, "This looks like a movie!". So, if you want your wedding film to look like it came out of a blockbuster romance movie, use Candlelight Films!
Clint and Lauren are not only two incredibly sweet people, but they do phenomenal work! I had not budgeted for a wedding video, but after seeing the amazing job that Candlelight Films did on the film for my (now) sister-in-law's wedding, my husband insisted that we seek out Clint and Lauren for a wedding film. They were professional and helpful on the day of the wedding, all the while seeming like they were beyond excited to be there. We kept checking our email on the first couple of days of our wedding because we were so excited to see the SneakPeek. It is amazing! We were both in tears and watched it over and over. I cannot even count how many times we have watched it! You will not regret the investment on this!
Clint and Lauren are amazing!!!! At the last minute, we decided to add a sneak peek of the wedding day, and they totally delivered!! We cannot wait to get the full wedding video in a few months!!!
We originally did not include videography in our wedding budget, even though I really wanted videography. I just eventually forgot about it. After seeing a friend's sneak peek video after attending her wedding a couple months before ours, I decided to just go for it and see if they were available. It was such an impulse, but we were SO excited when they said they could do our wedding just a month and a half away! Clint and Lauren are SO nice, funny, and just wonderful people. Our sneak peek video is seriously one of the most amazing wedding sneak peeks we have ever seen (but of course we're biased). Totally worth every penny! We cannot wait to see the full length video. The quality is just incredible; the way they shoot, edit, and put it all together is just so professional and beautiful! I am so happy we booked them- I am now a firm believer in hiring a videographer for weddings. The video just brings the day back to life, and we will be able to enjoy it for years! so so pleased, couldn't have asked for better!
Clint and Lauren are such sweet people! During the wedding reception we didn't even realize we were being shot! I just watched my sneak peak (which came out a couple days after the wedding!) and watched it I don't even know how many times! Everyone loved it! I couldn't believe how amazing the video turned out! They caught every highlighted moment during that day and put it on our sneak peak! I can't wait to see how our film turns out to be like! I couldn't have asked for a more perfect team to capture our wedding day! Having our wedding recorded was the best decision we made because it captures moments we tend to miss or forget-CandleLight is definitely the team to do it!
We used Candlelight Films for our wedding videographer and they were one of the best decisions we made for our entire wedding. At first we were hesitant about whether it was worth doing videography at all. After we received our preview video back, we were so glad that we did it. It captured so many things that photography doesn't. The husband and wife team at Candlelight truly treated us as not just a number or a job. They truly wanted the best for us and to capture our personalities during the process. I highly recommend them and am so glad we chose them.
We saw Clint and Lauren's work at a friends wedding and decided we wanted to hire them immediately. We coordinated with them first before even finding a venue that would be available when they were. They did such a great job blending in at the wedding to where we barely noticed we were being filmed, and our sneak peak is so awesome that we watched it about 50 times they day it was released. The quality of the film is the best I've seen and captured our wedding in a way that photographs could not. Their work was so awesome that it inspired my husband to pursue videography himself, and Clint has been so great at supporting that endeavor. If video is important to you, you can't get any better than Candlelight!
They were absolutely wonderful. I watch my video from them more than I look at all my pictures!
I knew before we hired Clint and Lauren to be our videographers that we were making the best decision. They are both amazing and are gifted at what they do. They are so sweet and down to earth, we could not have imagined anyone else there to capture our special moment. Our wedding guests and friends/family who were unable to attend have not been able to stop talking about our sneak peak wedding video. They're all sure it's going to go viral. Thanks guys!!
WOW!!! I don't know where to begin...Lauren & Clint are absolutely AMAZING. They are wonderful people to work with and are such incredible professionals. We got our preview video a few days after our wedding and I probably watched it half a dozen times showing all of my family. Everyone was speechless and so impressed. All of our friends and family have been extremely complimentary and said it's the best wedding video they've seen. The whole piece perfectly captured our special day and it was a great gift to have before going off on our honeymoon. We cannot wait for the final video!! Spending money on a videographer may not seem like much of a priority during the planning phases, but after the day is all over it is by far the best way to relive the event and share it with loved ones. It captures far beyond a single shot like traditional photographs. I cannot imagine having such an amazing video to treasure for our lifetimes. Not all videographers can capture an entire day full of laughter, tears and joy so accurately and emotionally. Lauren & Clint, you are both so gifted and amazing at what you do. Thank you for how much time and work you put into your products and for giving us the ability to relive our wedding day over and over!
Candlelight is probably the best videographer service in the metroplex. They are super fun and easy to work with, flexible, efficient, and very very good at what they do. Everyone that sees the video comments that it is the best wedding video they have ever seen. I highly recommend Candlelight Films!
Clint and Lauren are spectacular! They are very easy to work with and fun to be around. They have top of the line equipment and do a great job of capturing all the great moments of your wedding day! I am so glad we picked them to video our wedding; they are amazing!! They not only put together a video of your wedding day as a whole, but they also put together a sneak peak video that they post on facebook the beginning of the following week that shows some of the highlights of the day. This allows you, your spouse,and friends and family to look back at your wedding day before you get the final video. I would recommend them to anyone!!
Lauren & Clint at Candlelight Films literally took our breath away with our wedding preview. It is our own little love story and family and friends can not stop raving about how beautiful it is. When my husband and I first saw it, we both were very emotional, reliving the best day of our life. I highly recommend Lauren & Clint for a real, authentic wedding film!
We could not have ever imagined a better team of videographers to capture our wedding ceremony and reception as perfect as they did! Words cannot describe their kindness, joy, enthusiasm, and expertise! Clint and Lauren (husband and wife) are such a joy to work with... and the results are phenomenal! Every video they make looks like a movie! They are worth every penny!
I would have paid ten times more for their services. What they gave us was priceless. Not only are they amazing at capturing precious moments they are a joy to be around!
I must admit, my husband and I were not going to hire a videographer for our wedding. We were already way over our budget, and truly thought that our photographs would be enough. So, when I stumbled upon one of Clint and Lauren’s videos through our photographers, I was torn with what I saw. The video was AMAZING, and it made me realize why people spend money on having a videographer. The music, the editing, the emotion – all right there in front of you to re-live. But, I wasn’t sure we could squeeze it in our budget. We decided to meet Clint and Lauren for coffee just to get a feel for what they offered, and from the moment we sat down I knew we had to have them at our wedding. They are such genuine, charismatic, smart people – people who truly love their work and each other, and put that love into each project they do. I wrote them a check on the spot and never looked back.
Working with Clint and Lauren was seamless. They showed up on time and immediately started shooting. After a few minutes I forgot they were there and just enjoyed my day. There were even times I thought “where are the videographers”, when I realized they are just that good at blending into your event.
After our wedding, we received our “sneak peek” on facebook on the Tuesday of our honeymoon, and it was incredible to re-live our day from half a world away. I admit, I watched that sneak peek every day for the last four months, until I received my full length video this week. Every part of it is perfect. Clint and Lauren used my music suggestions (and picked the best songs from them!), used impeccable editing techniques, and really put time and effort into the finished product.
About a month after our wedding, we went to a friend’s wedding, and as we were pulling up into the hotel, we saw Clint and Lauren getting out of their car, with their equipment in tow. It was great seeing them, and I looked forward to seeing the finished product of our friend’s wedding almost as much as I looked forward to seeing our own. That’s how good these people are. Their work is more than videography, more than documenting an occasion. While their clients certainly get an edited account of their day, they also get so much more. They get a piece of art that they are the start of – a timeless and classic film that they can cherish over the years. Thank you, Candlelight Films, for this precious gift.
Clint and Lauren with CandleLight Films are amazing to worth with. They are so sweet and really listen to your wants and expectations for your video. My inital meeting with them lasted almost 2 hours because we had such a great time getting to know each other and they were so genuinely interested in us as a couple and our wedding. My wedding was only 2 weeks ago so I have only received my video preview, however I have been told my MANY people that it is the most beautiful wedding video they have ever seen. One bride even changed her mind on not hiring a videographer after she saw our wedding video and will be contacting CandleLight. Out of every vendor we hired for the wedding CandleLight is one of the few we would recommend again and again.
Not only are they incredibly nice people, they are unimaginably talented. From the first day we met them they wanted to hear all about our story (how my husband and I met and so forth) and were genuinely concerned about writing down every detail so they could make sure that the video would be perfect. They wanted to make sure they filmed every detail and didn't miss a moment, even if that meant filming in 100 degree heat at the golf course!! (My husband and his wedding party decided to golf the morning of the wedding) We had several different vendors at our wedding, and this is by far the best choice we made. I can not think of one single thing I would change about CandleLight films and how they run their business. Such personable friendly people who are very dedicate to making your wedding video perfect! If I could give 100 stars I would.
Clint and Lauren are true professionals and even better people. They were respectful, helpful and most of all- a lot of fun to work with.
I can't tell you how many people cried after simply watching our honeymoon preview (the short version of the entire video). It was a great way to share the experience with friends and family who couldn't make it to our wedding.
What a treat to have worked with these guys. I would recommend Candlelight Films to anyone with a wedding large or small.
If you'd like to ask them for references, my name is Jordan Rogers. My wife and I got married in December of 2010.
Their work speaks for itself. I can speak for the people behind it.
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Lauren and Clint! They personally made it a priority to meet with us one on one to get to know us and find out what we liked and disliked. We felt so comfortable with them and we genuinely felt as if they were apart of our family during the wedding! They also took the time to personally meet up with us after the wedding with our finished videos. It was so refreshing to know they truly did care about getting to know us and to check back in with us. We shared a lot of great memories from the wedding and had such a great time laughing and joking around! The quality and style of the video was everything we could ever dream of! We had spent months and months finding an amazing videographer who actually met our price range. We were ready to give up and then found Candlelight films! We would recommend them to anyone looking for a videographer. They truly are dedicated to making your wedding memorable without you having to worry about a thing. Choose Candlelight films and you won't be disappointed!!!!!
My husband and I chose to have Candle - Light Films shoot our wedding and we could not be happier! They have an amazing eye for capturing the little details as well as the big details of the day. We love being able to look back and watch our video and relive the day all over again. Candle-light films did an incredible job! I cannot say enough great things about this company!
Hiring Candle Light was one of the best decision we made in our wedding. Not only are they fantastic people, but they are incredibly talented. They has the short video done by the time we were on our honeymoon and I can't tell you the amount of people who were amazed my the video. People who couldn't make the wedding, felt like they were there. This is something that I will watch forever and get to show my kids one day.
My mother didn't understand at first why we wanted a videographer but after we received the video she is so glad that we pushed.
When I saw my friends wedding preview video I wanted one for our wedding immediately. After contacting them Clint & Lauren replied immediately and were SUPER easy to talk to. I can't imagine our wedding day without them and we watch our video almost weekly and shed a little happy tear over it. Our families are also SO glad to have a copy of it, especially for grandparents who weren't able to attend. Parents were a little unsettled about having video since its a fairly new thing to have professional video for weddings, but now they are so happy we did!
I've been married 3 weeks now and my husband and I already agree that Candlelight Films was our most valuable purchase.
I began researching videographers the first month we were engaged because I was worried that we'd have to really hunt. After about a week I had only found 2 that I would have even remotely considered. One was, looking back now, SUPER cheesy. The other was just mediocre. Somehow, I can't even remember now, I stumbled upon Candlelight Films and cried at the first video. It perfectly captured the emotion of the wedding day, the personality of the couple and the joy of the event. My fiance (now husband) is an art director and deals with video shoots and creative media a lot. I knew he would be a tough sell on whomever we chose. I showed him Candlelight Films videos and without even watching the other vendors, he said "book them immediately."
We met Clint and Lauren in January (after stalking them online and viewing every single of their videos we could get our hands on). Immediately, and I do mean immediately, we loved them. They wanted to know our story and reciprocated our excitement about our wedding.
We chose to include the Love Story upgrade and it was my favorite and best decision of the wedding. They spent an afternoon with us filming our Love Story of how we met, our first date, engagement, etc. They were extremely professional and so friendly. In fact, we found out later that Lauren was pregnant and not feeling well at all. But we had no idea. She was a huge trooper and just went on as if nothing was wrong.
They gave us our Love Story within a week and it was beyond what I had hoped for. In this world, I feel like everything is just mediocre and you just have to accept it. It's been a long time since something truly exceeding my expectations and Clint and Lauren's video of us was beyond perfect. We showed the Love Story at our Rehearsal Dinner and there was not a dry eye in the room. Several people came up to us afterward requesting a copy or a link to the video b/c they wanted to share it with their family.
Clint and Lauren then spent our wedding day with us. They were so professional and yet so friendly. My mom fell in love with them and still asks me how they are doing. They were so calm the day of. They even calmed me down just by being in the room. You hardly ever knew they were there. In fact when we saw our Coming Soon video, we kept thinking, "when did they get that?" They just blended in and were never in the way. They captured the wedding perfectly. Just by watching the video you felt like you were there, experiencing the sentimental moments, the silly moments and all the intimate moments.
As you can tell I am gushing about Candlelight Films. I would use them over and over again. In fact, my husband and I already discussed keeping in contact with them to see if they would do videos for us when we have children or even our 5 year anniversary. I kinda want them to document all our milestones. They are worth 3x more than what we paid for them.
We love them SO much and actually hope to be friends with them now that the wedding is over.
Don't look for any other videographer, just hope that Candlelight Films isn't already booked for your date. In fact, move your wedding date if they aren't available (JK).
My husband and I met with the owners of CandleLight Films about 2 months before our wedding this year (2011). We met with 2 other wedding videographers, but new CFilms was the one for us. Laura & Clint were AMAZING to work with! So professional, never obtrusive during the ceremony or reception, friendly and patient with my many reqeusts. Their video turned out to be our favorite wedding keepsake. I can't speak their praises enough. The video was top quality, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. We are so pleased with our decision to use CFilms!!!!
I cannot say enough about Candlelight Films. We found them through recently married friends of ours. They said that they were an amazing team, and they weren't lying! Every experience- in person, via email, or on the phone- was pleasant and informative. The day of the wedding Lauren and Clint were SO great! They weren't intrusive but captured all of the best moments and were really fun to be around. All of our guests raved about them. The 'sneak peek' video we got within a week of the wedding and I have watched it (and cried) at least 50 times in the last 3 weeks. Their videos make other companies' videos look like home-movies! I don't have anything but great reviews for Candlelight Films. I will refer them in a heartbeat to all of my newly engaged friends!
When planning my wedding, I had no intentions of hiring a videographer. We were on a tight budget and I had seen too many wedding videos that seemed like a big waste of money. And by chance, I some how ended up on Candlelight Film's website. I found myself crying my eyes out in awe of their pure talent. Their videos were SO amazing I knew I would regret it everyday if I didn't hire them! BEST DECISION OF MY LIFE!!! They are amazingly sweet people and truly understood everything that I wanted. I cannot tell you how many people have told me how much they enjoyed watching our video. It is a forever keepsake that my husband and I will forever cherish. We had a lot of friends and family that couldn't make it but still felt like they were there by watching our video. It was the best gift that we could have received. We absolutely loved everything about them
CandleLight films captured all of the special moments on our wedding day. They were so easy to work with, both so relational and sweet and did such an amazing job. Our wedding was out of town, and they were willing to travel. We have watched our video so many times and it recaptures all of the "warm fuzzies" from the special day. Their work is truly incredible. Even though they are shooting a wedding video they are very good at capturing unique characteristics and personalities of each couple they work with. We are so happy that we chose to have a videographer. We highly recommend Clint and Lauren with CandleLight films to capture your special day. We will have this memory forever, thanks to them.
We were so impressed by Clint and Lauren. They were very Professional, had a great price, the quality of the video was amazing, like we were watching a professional movie
BEST WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHERS OUT THERE....Clint and Lauren are married so they really know how to capture the day. They will NOT let you down!
See our preview video they did here!
http://www.vimeo.com/27722920
They are great! Very professional! And the film every single detail!!!! They were there while I was getting ready and filmed all the way until the end of the reception. The preview was done on time and it was breath taking! They really now what they are doing and if you choose them to film your wedding you can just relax and know that you will get the best and most beautiful video! Just loved it!!!!
Lauren and Clint were amazing! They blended in and you couldn't even tell that they were at the wedding. My sneak peak of my video that we got (5 days after the wedding!!!) Moved me to tears. How they were able to capture ever lil detail and make it feel as if you were reliving that very moment.
When we decided to book a videographer we were not sure as to how much we wanted to spend. We researched the quality of videos instead. Wow! They really impressed us on their website. We just didn't expect that their service and work would be so...awesome! We haven't received our actual video yet, but do have our sneak peek video and their work is excellent! Lauren and Clint were very professional, but at the same time, very friendly and easy to work with. We definitely recommend their services to anyone. The price offered compared to the quality is practically a steal. Get'em!
Lauren and Clint! Brian and I have watched the wedding video 3 times.. okay maybe 4! WOW! First off.. You two made our wedding so wonderful. We didnt have any clue as to how amazing it would be to have you there to be a part of the big day. Both of you made the experience more laid back and enjoyable. Words cannot describe how incredible and special that video is to us. Thank you thank you thank you. What a fun way to remember it all! Our friends and Family loved you too! You are so friendly and welcoming! What a gift to have everything on film. We are overwhelmed by people who keep telling us how great the video is. Everyone keeps saying they have watched it more than a few times and that they cry every time! I hope that some of our engaged friends get the blessing of you documenting their wedding too. Praise the Lord for you two! What a great team you are! God is so so GOOD!
