Chris is a phenomenal videographer! My wife and I are beyond pleased with the work he did leading up to the wedding, during the wedding, and of course afterwards. Some highlights of what makes Chris stand out:
- Very personable and easy to work with. We conveyed our vision to him and he certainly knew how to translate that into a wonderful product. We had a couple meetings with Chris leading up to the wedding - he was very understanding of what we wanted and what important moments to capture. It was exactly what we'd envisioned.
- Drone footage is always an awesome scene-setter! Especially with the beautiful green of the DMV area.
- Chris was also very discrete while filming throughout the wedding. Looking back on the footage, I had no idea he was around us for many of the shots!
- After Chris produced the videos from our wedding, he asked for our input to see if there was anything he could make better. We had some minor requested adjustments and he made it perfect - I feel that is particularly telling to Chris' care and attention to quality. You can be sure you're going to get an amazing end result.
Overall, Chris was well worth every penny - especially for the package deal we purchased - and now my wife and I will have these special memories on video for the rest of our lives. Thanks Chris!

Chris was fantastic! My now husband and I had a late need for a new videographer for our wedding - Chris was super responsive and we set up a Zoom to discuss his videography and what we were looking for. My husband and I both agreed immediately that we “got good vibes” from Chris, and moved forward with booking him. So glad they we did! He was super easy to work with and went above and beyond to capture footage on our wedding day, despite a little bit of rain. His package was such a great value (loved the included drone footage!) and the videos came out beautifully. He took into account our desires, and was responsive throughout the editing and sharing process. So glad to have the videos to look back and remember our wedding! Highly recommend working with Chris.

Hiring Chris as our videographer was the best decision we made for our wedding! From the very beginning he was so easy to work with. He listened to our vision for our day, provided suggestions and worked with us to put together a package that was perfect for what we wanted. Out of all the videographers we spoke to, his videography package was the best value and tailored to exactly what we wanted. On our wedding day Chris was on time and he fit seamlessly in, as my photographers were taking photos I barely noticed Chris in the background filming the whole time. He really just meshed in with the day and created the most amazing wedding video. He presented us with the video so quickly even before my wedding photos were released! It was absolutely beautiful, the film had us in tears! He captured our day perfectly and edited the film with seamless transitions. As a last minute request, I asked for a vertical short instagram reel. He promptly put together a quick film for me to post that was perfect to add to my instagram. We are beyond thankful that we chose Chris as our videographer for our special day!

We were BEYOND fortunate to have Chris Coyle as our wedding videographer. With a family background in photography and videography for over 16 years, my standards were exceptionally high, but Chris not only met them but far exceeded every expectation.
From the very start, Chris's professionalism and attentiveness put us at ease so it wasn't a surprise the videos would turn out great. But when we received the final video, it honestly felt like he had the presence of a whole team of videographers. The angles were impeccable and the lighting was flawless. Fortunately ;) nearly 80% of our wedding day, it was a complete downpour but Chris showed a level of preparedness and professionalism that I can confidently say sets him apart.
Our photographers, with extensive experience, commented to us after the wedding about how impressed they were with Chris's seamless integration with the team. It truly felt like a coordinated effort, and the final video reflected his commitment and passion for what he does.
Without a doubt, I HIGHLY recommend Chris Coyle for his outstanding videography skills. Don't hesitate to hire him - you won't be disappointed!

Chris was amazing to work with for our wedding videography! He worked seamlessly with our photographer to capture our full day from getting ready to our last dance. He also sent us our videos within two months, which included a 6 minute highlight film and footage from our ceremony, toasts, and private vow readings. Chris went above and beyond; for example he got some footage from local DC landmarks to include in our highlight film which was such a nice touch.
If you’re in the DC area and looking for a wedding videographer, I definitely recommend him!

Words cannot describe how amazing Chris Coyle's work is! I have had experience with many different videographers, but Chris is simply above all of the rest in all categories! As a professional, Chris is incredibly easy to work with and really helps ease your nerves during such a stressful and exciting time. In terms of his work, Chris was able to put together an incredibly creative, high-quality, and perfectly shot video that everyone has loved to watch ever since! Also, Chris threw in a free instagram teaser clip that was really cute and small enough that I could easily text or email to my friends and family who aren't on social media.
For some context, my husband and I got married during the height of COVID and Chris was literally the ONLY vendor who was willing to be flexible, accommodating, and reasonable in filming our wedding. Other vendors charged additional fees or didn't refund deposits, but Chris went above and beyond to be understanding and quickly produce an AMAZING video that I was able to share with my family and friends who couldn't attend. Most people say you have to get photos, but tbh, the video was the absolute best! Chris was able to capture better moments and shots than my photographer and, since his video is so high quality, we were able to take screen grabs and get better wedding photos than our photographer. If it weren't for Chris, our wedding would not have been the same and he made it so memorable and shareable, which was especially important during COVID. THANK YOU!!
Overall, there is nothing to not love about Chris Coyle Films! He is so passionate about what he does and he produces such high-quality, creative work at a fraction of the other big name videographers, you'd be crazy not to book with him!

Chris Coyle’s work truly exceeded our expectations!
Hiring Chris for our wedding videography was the best decision we made in the wedding planning process. His communication and attention to detail was noticeable in our initial conversations. We could tell he understood who we were as a couple and what we valued in our relationship. Leading up to the wedding, we had a few planning conversations with Chris to discuss our vision, and he offered his opinions and expertise along the way. He also worked with our day of coordinator and photographer to create a timeline that would make the day run smoothly.
On our wedding day, Chris was prompt and ready to go! He worked alongside the photographer to capture our wedding details and continued with our getting ready shots. He captured private moments and group moments with ease, and it didn’t even feel like he was in the room.
The rest of the day went just as smoothly, and our wedding video is the perfect product of the day. We are so appreciative that Chris not only made our highlight video but also gave us the raw footage of our ceremonies and speeches. He even made reels that were easy to upload to instagram!
To no surprise, Chris was prompt with giving us access to these videos while also ensuring everything was perfect for us. We cannot put into words how happy we are that we had Chris Coyle capture our special day!
