Elephant Memories

an extensive amount of time to make sure our video was unique and just the style/way we wanted it, but also took the time to get to know us really well as individuals. Through learning about us, the Elephant Memories team (Clarissa & Karl) were able to highlight what they learned to be most important to my husband and I. I am over the moon excited and ecstatic with how our sneak peek video and highlights video came out! If you want your wedding video to look exactly how you envision it, you need to book EM! We are forever grateful for everything EM has done for us and for their beautiful work! Clarissa and Karl, we love you so much! Thank you for everything!

easure forever! We have watched our video countless times since receiving it, and we're left laughing, crying, smiling and feeling so much love, just as much as we did the first time we watched it. The amount of dedicated hours, work, precision, and creativity (and love!) they put into our video is unmatched and left us speechless. We knew we made the right decision when we contracted with them, but upon watching the video they created, we were completely blown away! They captured our day, sharing our love story in such an incredible way, and I can still hardly believe their talent!! As if the video wasn't enough, getting to know and work with Clarissa and Karl was such a joy, as they are such wonderful, sweet, and amazing people! If you haven't booked with them already, do it now! It was one of the best decisions we could have ever made for our wedding, and we are so grateful for their incredible work! We love you both so much!! <3

second I saw her work I immediately wanted her to be our videographer. Every video I watched of hers brought tears to my eyes, even when I didn't know the bride and groom! Then when it came time for our wedding weekend, she was everything and more. Clarissa arrived early, caught every important moment from multiple angles, and it genuinely seemed like she had fun the whole time doing it! Her and our photographer, Rachel Red Photography, were the ULTIMATE DUO. They were such a great team and it made for a great outcome with the footage. Clarissa is so incredibly thoughtful about putting together your videos, she works to create a story line for each video and it makes it all so much more special. And the editing on each video is just so perfect with the audio - it is truly unmatched. Cannot recommend Clarissa enough!!!

told that our wedding video was the best video people have ever seen- and we couldn't agree more. On top of their impeccable craftsmanship, they themselves, are one of the most incredible couples to be around. They make you feel like family and truly share in the joy and celebration of your day. We hope to have them in our lives forever!

f I was going to do a wedding video, I had to have Clarissa! Not only did we have an in depth phone conversation prior to me meeting her, but she is so warm in person and made me feel like I’ve known her! The video exceeded my expectations and captured all the people, emotions, and high points of our special day. Highly recommend them!

our wedding day is the greatest gift and we will cherish it always. It takes right back to that special day every time we watch it triggering all of those emotions all over again. If you’re looking for a videographer for a wedding or other special event, you will be in good hands with Elephant Memories!

he video is completely original and we will treasure it for a lifetime!

she sent us so many incredible options it was hard to choose. She really took the time to get to know us as a couple and provide us with a special and personalized experience. She worked so well with our photographers, it felt like they were a unified team. Her videos are such high quality and really capture the magic of the day. Would highly recommend booking her for your wedding!

dry eyes at the end of it. We have had friends of friends say our video was the first wedding video they entirely watched. Everyone is just in awe with the creativity and how it captured every single important moment possible. Our video truly captured our day and our love. We could not have a better wedding video. We are so pleased and blessed to have crossed paths with Clarissa. She was the sweetest human from the very beginning e-mails and throughout your best but kind of stressful/overwhelming day. She is someone you want around you on your wedding day. She was very punctual, positive, flexible and professional. She did anything and everything to get every single moment captured. One of my favorite vendors was hands down this vendor. Thank you thank you!!!!!

endor, and that was only increased the day of the wedding! She even arrived early and made us feel so comfortable all while capturing every second of our big day! From the moment I saw a wedding teaser of a couple at our same venue over a year ago, I immediately knew I wanted her to be part of our all-star vendor team! Every video of hers that I have watched (multiple times) has made me laugh, cry and feel like I knew each couple personally based on how well she captures their unique story and personalities. I cannot wait to see our finished product and have Clarissa capture special memories for us for years to come!

nd Elephant Memories to anyone! 😊

ails of our day, plus some! Clarissa truly cares about the bride and groom and their vision for the day and for the video, and takes everything to heart. She is kind and funny, and a joy to have around on wedding day! She is on top of things and got us our video ahead of schedule, and was so helpful throughout the entire process. She was one of my very favorite vendors from our wedding, and I would recommend her to ANYone. I don't have enough great things to say! The video she created for us is a memory we will cherish for a lifetime.

eoed my daughter’s wedding in May and was punctual, professional, so sweet to everyone, fun to be around, and her work was absolutely outstanding!

lways available and quickly responds to any questions you have! Clarissa makes you feel so comfortable and is very accommodating! I highly recommend her, you won’t be disappointed!

lanning for almost 2 years. She heard our concerns about the likelihood of still having guest number and mask restrictions even come May, and she was still empathetic, supportive and excited for whatever our wedding would look like. She ensured us that it would be beautiful no matter what and we could work around the restrictions. We filled out an extensive questionnaire about our preferences for music, using the toasts and vows, etc. and she stayed incredibly true to our vision. The end result is a beautifully crafted, romantic, genuine and fun highlight of our wedding day that is representative of who we are and our relationship and we couldn’t be happier! We loved working with Clarissa, she brought so much energy and enthusiasm leading up to and during the wedding weekend and we felt very comfortable in her hands.

as very communicative from the day we booked her through the entire process to make sure the video came out just the way we wanted. Everyone we have shown it to says it's the best wedding video they have ever seen. Having it be roughly 8 minutes is perfect as well because it captures the day without people having to sit there for ages watching it. We also really appreciated Clarissa's guidance on the day of the wedding in terms of what angles or poses would look best on camera. We may have felt silly at the time, but boy do they fantastic in the video! Our wedding video was our one splurge item and it was worth every penny. Thank you!

g about our wedding video. She made everyone completely relaxed and made the process fun as well. I am shy to begin with, but I felt completely comfortable working with her. Everyone absolutely loves our wedding video and we do too! Thank you Elephant Memories!

ecial, you HAVE to hire Clarissa to capture it on film so you remember it forever. She captured the most intimate, stunning moments for us. She is SO easy to work with and takes the time to edit every second of the day. Our wedding video looks like it was produced in Hollwood... It's THAT good! She is not only one of the most talented people i have ever met, but she is such a sweetheart! We are forever grateful she was the one who captured our day for us. I would recommend her time and time again!

get a feel for our style prior to our big day! The day of the wedding she was punctual and made us feel so comfortable while capturing our special moments. The end product was more than we could have imagined! My husband and I were very pleased with the teaser and highlights video she created for us. It brought back so many memories from a beautiful, blessed day! We have footage of our family and friends that we will cherish for years to come. We recommend Elephant Memories for anyone looking for quality, talent and professionalism when it comes to capturing your most precious and unforgettable memories.

nd knowing that so many of our friends and family would no longer be able to attend, we decided to add on a videographer to help document the day for those who couldn’t be there in person. I’m SO glad we did! Clarissa created a beautiful video that absolutely captured the spirit of our wedding and the spirit of the city where we fell in love. I have watched the video over and over and it makes me so happy every single time. It’s like being able to relive all the perfect moments again. Clarissa made the whole process so easy for us. She is an absolute pro! She was flexible with our needs and helped create the perfect package for us. Her footage is absolutely stunning; it should honestly be a marketing video for Charleston. She created a priceless keepsake for us that we will cherish for many years to come. Thank you Clarissa!!

ecame evident we needed to document with more than just pictures. Intimate and small was the intent- with a budget that had become razor thin. I wasn’t going to have a videographer but we needed a videographer. So I researched- they were cookie cutting movie makers so I abandoned the idea until I stumbled upon the Elephant Memories website. I watched video after video each one specialized to document each couple’s original story; no cut & paste formats. I emailed Clarissa with our story and the vision- we clicked creatively. The wedding was 2 months away & I feared she would not be available, lucky for us, she was. Covid cancelled our original date & without any fuss Clarissa was very accommodating- we had a great team of vendors. If you want your story documented, please know Clarissa is VERY attentive to details and open to your overall vision. We wanted a special musical vibe ( Jazzy & modern), she gave us the guidelines and let us go wild. Communication was key since we live in Atlanta - I’d email in the wee hours of the morning and surprisingly she would respond (creatives find inspiration in the wee hours). Our first phone conversation was like friends catching up & for every one of my ideas she added something to make it more special. I met Clarissa the day of the wedding-her beautiful personality was magnified 100x- she took charge of the shots, gave direction to create the images we discussed and was open to some impromptu shots we wanted on the fly. We followed her through the streets of Charleston creating amazing content and just having FUN! IT WAS MAGICAL! When we received the finished product I laughed and cried, my husband wanted to watch it again and again. It was a TRUE documentary of our special day. The music and transitions seamlessly blend,- she was invisible in plain sight-because she captured conversations and those little details that you glance at and, admire but forget a moment later. There are a lot of “oh I remember that’ moments in our video. We can now have those moments forever. Our video is unique to us- as is everyone else’s is unique to them. Clarissa has captured for us , ’THE BEST DAY EVER.’

l cherish forever! Clarissa is so sweet and so easy to work with. Not one moment was missed and her creativity and uniqueness truly made our video so special. She not only creates amazing videos but she also took the time to really get to know us and our personalities and that is why we would 100% recommend her and her work. Our video doesn’t just spark the memories of our wedding day but it sparks the memories of us and our story.

her of the bride, a great honor for sure! Clarissa captured the most beautiful moments that were shared between me and my daughter. Definitely brought on the water works. My son did the first look with my daughter- his sister and she caught every single second of that beautiful moment! As I am typing all of this out, it brings tears to my eyes that Clarissa felt what we were feeling in that moment on my daughters wedding day and captured it! Clarissa has done a few videos for Teagan and Bryce that are more than perfect. I even had a friend ask if there were academy awards for wedding videos because theirs would win.... Clarissa puts her heart and soul into every video she makes and keeps in close contact with the bride all the way through... She truly becomes a part of your family!

r my video. I needed it to have a certain feel and emotion when it was watched. And OH MY GOSH did Clarissa not only deliver exactly everything we wanted in a video, she completely customized every single detail with love and completely out did herself!!! She gave advise and even threw some new ideas at us that we completely fell in love with. And as a bride you already have so many things to choose and all you’re really looking for are ideas from your vendors that you are obsessed with and make your vision even more amazing!!! Our video is more than we could have ever dreamed of because of Elephant Memories. Thank you a million times over and over again. You are the absolute best!

ding films back! A must hire for a stress free process with a beautiful result!

deographer that would be able to capture the perseverance and resiliency our love has during difficult times. I researched about 20 videographers and watched hundreds of videos, before coming across Elephant Memories. As soon as I watched a couple of Clarissa's wedding videos, I knew she was perfect for my vision of a Love Story Movie. She was very professional and friendly from our very first emails to finally meeting on the day of the wedding. I felt like I had known her for years! She made us feel extremely comfortable on our wedding day and worked SO hard to capture every single moment with expertise and natural skill. She was so much fun to work with and paired so magically with our photographer that you would have thought they worked together many times before even though this was the first time. She did it all. Drone footage and even a second camera set-up all by herself which is very impressive. The best part of it all is that she was truly just as excited to put our video together as we were. She finished it early and when I tell you it is the most beautiful video I have ever seen, it is! My favorite compliment when others watch it is that they feel like they just watched a trailer for a movie like The Notebook which was my inspiration from the beginning. I would 1000000x recommend Clarissa and Elephant Memories to anyone looking to book a videographer. Anyone would be lucky to have Clarissa's impressive skills, expert editing, and overall love for her job and passion to produce a beautiful product that can be cherished forever.

nd what we wanted! We absolutely LOVE our video, it is so gorgeous and gives us such a special way to look back on our day. We were amazed at the high quality and at the artistic and beautiful moments she captured from our day, she really was able to capture the emotion and happiness. Clarissa is a pleasure to work with, she is so kind and personable and really gets to know you as a couple so that she can make a wonderful video!She was also so flexible and willing to help us in the midst of plans changing in the midst of the pandemic, she really wanted what was best for us and made it happen. If you're thinking about wanting a video from your wedding I highly reccomend it, and if you do BOOK ELEPHANT MEMORIES!!

to our first dance, and wedding toasts - such that the story it told left us in tears! And the photos captured the emotion of each moment remarkably! Thank you so much for the wonderful memoirs of our wedding! Te amamos mil gracias! The best wedding videographer in the world!

elled, we completely moved states and were so worried that we would not find a videographer. Elephant Memories saved the day! Clarissa was quick to respond and jumped right in like she was family. She even offered ideas to help our vision come to life. With the stress of everything changing so quickly, it was a huge relief to find a videographer that was genuinely excited to be a part of our day. She did not hesitate to wake up super early and hike with us. She wanted to make sure we got the most breathtaking mountain shots, and WOW is all I can say! Our love, our family, the location, every tear, every laugh, every detail of our day was captured so perfectly. The video was so much more than we ever imagined and we cry every time we watch it! Clarissa is so much fun to work with, she became an instant friend which made us feel so comfortable. You will not be disappointed with Elephant Memories!

pathway that would allow us to share our special day with our loved ones that could not attend our wedding. Elephant Memories exceeded our expectations in every way. She created the most beautiful video that not only captured our wedding, but captured so many special moments throughout the day. It was worth every penny. If there was anything I would do over and over and over again when planning a wedding, it would be booking Elephant Memories. She was so intentional, kind, creative, and flexible throughout the entire process. She worked great alongside other vendors. She did excellent in maneuvering through our family beach house (last minute venue), and captured so many great memories. It has been a true joy to share our video with family and friends, and we have received nothing but high praises for the video and appreciation for its attention to detail. I can’t stress enough how she was able to capture so many great moments. We highly recommend Clarissa! She is phenomenal. Additionally, we highly recommend investing in the flash drive after the wedding as well! We can’t say enough good things, please book with Elephant Memories you will not be disappointed!

done before. Our destination wedding to SC was cancelled due to Covid-19, so we scrambled to plan something small and intimate at home. Clarissa took the footage from the small and intimate wedding, and shot some footage of us in SC to create an incredible video that beautifully tells our story. It turned out better than I could have imagined, and we couldn't be happier!!! If you're on the fence about hiring a videographer, I HIGHLY recommend it! Especially if you're considering working with Elephant Memories, you won't regret it! I can't wait to watch our video again on our anniversary while we share our wedding cake. The video captures so much more than any photographs can.

un to work with. Clarissa understood exactly what we wanted and she captured EVERYTHING. And I get to keep these memories forever. I could cry. Thank you, the videos were perfect and she is a dream to work with from start to finish!!! She works soooo well with the rest of our vendors, I just can’t say enough good things about her. THANK YOU!!!!!

for more than just our wedding to be video taped and set to music with some basic editing. We wanted a video that had creativity, and really helped to tell our story. Elephant Memories did just that, and MORE! The creativity that they brought to the table was more than I could have ever dreamed of. More than just getting the "right shots", the editing that went into our video makes it over the top! Working with the team on the day of was easy - they make you feel so comfortable. We honestly could feel their passion for what they do throughout the whole day that they were with us and beyond. Here are my final recommendations for any bride to be: 1. If you are on the fence about wanting to hire a videographer and you can make ANY room in your budget: DO IT! I promise you that after all is said and done, you are going to be SO thankful that you did. 2. Highly consider hiring Elephant Memories for your big day. Their passion, talent, and experience lead to the most AMAZING final product. I mean, just take 5 mins and head to their Instagram to watch a few of their examples - you won't regret it!

I will cherish it forever

edding video and Clarissa took all our feedback into consideration and also provided us with her own creative ideas to consider for our video. We wanted our video to be reminiscent of a sweet french love story, and Clarissa totally delivered on this and brought all our ideas to life! I also have to mention Clarissa's editing skills - it's movie quality!!! We purchased the Diamond package, which included a 1-minute teaser (perfect for sharing on IG), a 3-5 minute trailer (great for sharing with friends and family), and a 10-20 minute documentary. This package was totally worth the money, and we found Elephant Memories to be very reasonably priced compared to other Boston-based videographers (especially given the quality of work they deliver!) Clarissa and Haley were a pleasure to work with, and I would highly recommend them to any engaged couples who are in search of a wedding videographer, you will not be disappointed!

entary style and I could not be more pleased with how it turned out! In addition to filming throughout our wedding, we had the opportunity to film separately at the location where we met; this was Clarissa's idea! Adding the extra footage added an even more romantic spark and truly captured our story as a couple. She pays very close attention to detail and genuinely cared about our vision as a couple. Not only were unforgettable moments captured, they were highlighted in such an artistic fashion that truly brought magic to our video. I highly recommend Elephant Memories!

ng even more special than we could have hoped for! They make you feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera on your wedding day, which is especially important given how busy your wedding day can be! Would recommend to anyone looking for a wedding videographer.

ew we were looking for something different. We'd need to find an amazing videographer to match our vision. When we talked with Elephant Memories and started exchanging ideas, we knew Clarissa was the perfect match. By that time, we had reviewed what seemed like hundreds of wedding videos. When you watch so many, the repeated themes start to hit you over the head. The "normal" wedding video was everything we didn't want. We both decided we wanted a more commercially produced, cinematographic approach to our video, telling our story in a more interesting way. We wanted a video that would make us smile, laugh AND cry and remember everything years and years from now. So many of them just make you cry. Clarissa and Hayley both took the time to get to know us, our story, the little details that made it all so special, and the vibe we were going for. Since ours was a destination wedding in Charleston, we first met with Hayley on a short weekend visit. She was so easy to talk to and made it clear that there could be promise with Elephant Memories. Then Clarissa reached out to learn more about the different approach we wanted. Right away ideas came flowing and she suggested taking a romantic, almost sexy approach but in a classic way, like old memories. She sent over a mood board and potential footage we could get around Charleston. I work in advertising and so I'm used to having tons of adjustments to make on a project like this. I had almost none. I absolutely loved her ideas and she went above and beyond to get extra footage for us around Charleston days before the wedding. It was amazing. She was so creative with an eye for the exact shot was needed where and guided us along the way! We asked her to capture footage and audio from our rehearsal dinner dinner and wedding day and there are so many moments from both that we never would have had if not for her and Hayley! I am so grateful for them both. Their professionalism was top notch, and they crafted the most amazing presents for my husband and I (a 6 min highlight video and a social teaser <1 min) , along with unexpected sneak peek surprises. We got more than we could ever ask for with Elephant Memories, and honestly, despite the splurge on not 1 but 2 wedding dresses, I'd have to say this was some of our best money spent. We are thrilled and would recommend this crew over and over and over. You're most precious memories are in incredible hands with Elephant Memories. https://www.elephant-memories.com/post/wedding-video-at-governor-thomas-bennet-house

forward to working with her on our wedding day as well :)

visioned in your mind and you have to step out of your comfort zone and she made it so easy to do. Not to mention the fact that her videos are always going to be better than you could ever dream of them being!! Clarissa went over and beyond for us, and I know she will continue to do the same. Thank you a million times!!

ortant part of the wedding team and our celebration. We did a lot of research, in our quest to find the perfect wedding videographer, as this was a destination wedding in Charleston and we were all in Colorado. Well our work paid off...you guys were professional, respectful, informative, creative and upbeat throughout the whole process. Clarissa and Haley worked seamlessly side by side with the wedding photographer to capture some truly amazing footage. Your skill and artistic ability created such an incredible movie experience that perfectly captured our daughter and sons-in-laws special day. What Elephant Memories delivered far exceeded our expectations! Thanks to Elephant Memories we will be able to relive that special September day in Charleston, SC over and over again. We hope that we will be able to work together again at our next big event! We highly recommend Elephant Memories for your wedding/special event!!!

VERY high recommendation for the quality of work they do. The value of their video packages were amazing. I feel like it was very reasonable compared to other videographers for wonderful quality work. The video is awesome and super romantic...Thanks Guys!

you can tell they love what they do and will go out of their way to make your big day extra special

only was the end product amazing, but the process was even better than we could've ever hoped for. She has an incredible eye for detail, and was able to capture the day and all the important moments in a perfect way. She made sure all our guests felt comfortable while filming, was incredibly friendly with our family, friends, and all the kids at the party, and was also very patient with us. Even though as bride and groom our attention was split in a hundred different directions throughout the hectic day, she took advantage of the smallest windows of opportunity to get all the shots needed. This kind of talent is hard to come by.
