deo of our dreams! We watched it four times in a row the day we received it. It’s that incredible.
We reached out to Elpis Weddings with less than a week before our wedding, and they pulled everything together seamlessly. Their hard work and professionalism are unmatched, and they were such a joy to have with us on our big day!
Our wedding day involved three locations, 12 hours of filming, and 130 guests, yet Oz and Berk captured it all with such skill and artistry. The highlight reel they created is stunning, with a perfect mix of emotion, beauty, and storytelling.
I can’t recommend Elpis Weddings enough to anyone looking for a team that not only makes you feel completely comfortable but also brings an artistic flair to their work.
Thank you, Elpis Weddings, for giving us a video we’ll cherish forever!
Rachel and I couldn’t be happier with the wedding film that Oz and Elpis Weddings created for us. We’ve been together since high school, and our wedding day in 2023 felt like the c...
ulmination of so many years of love and growth. Having our ceremony in a beautiful Foreign Cinema made it even more special—it was like a perfect tribute to our story.
We realized we hadn’t written a review when Oz kindly reached out to us, and we’re so glad to finally share how much this video means to us. From the very beginning, Oz and the team were incredible. They captured everything in such a genuine and thoughtful way, from the small moments like Rachel laughing with her bridesmaids to the overwhelming joy we felt walking out together as husband and wife.
The film truly feels like us. It’s cinematic yet so personal—it brings tears to our eyes every time we watch it (and trust me, we’ve watched it a lot, especially on our anniversaries). The way Oz combined the stunning shots of Mission st. with our emotional moments was beyond what we could’ve imagined.
To anyone considering Elpis Weddings, we can’t recommend them enough. They don’t just create wedding videos—they craft memories you’ll treasure for a lifetime. Thank you, Oz, for preserving the most important day of our lives in such a beautiful way. It’s a gift we’ll cherish forever.
Being a part of this project was such an incredible experience! From the moment I stepped onto the beach, I could feel the passion and creativity from everyone involved. Oz and the...
Elpis Weddings team brought such a clear vision to life, and their attention to detail was nothing short of amazing.
Posing as the bride in this shoot was effortless because the entire team created such a relaxed and inspiring atmosphere. Oz was incredible behind the camera—guiding us with so much care and making sure every shot felt natural and full of emotion. The way they captured the story of Meley and Valentino on the beach is truly breathtaking.
The final video is stunning! Watching it felt like stepping into a romance novel, with every moment beautifully framed and brought to life against the gorgeous backdrop of Miami Beach. It’s a testament to the incredible talent of everyone involved, from Valentina’s flawless makeup and hair to Massielle’s dreamy floral arrangements.
Thank you, Oz and the entire team, for creating something so magical and for letting me be part of it. This project was more than just a shoot—it was a celebration of artistry, love, and storytelling at its finest. If you’re thinking about working with Elpis Weddings, you’re in the best hands!
When Ashley and I decided to elope, we wanted it to feel personal and unforgettable. Honestly, working with Elpis Weddings made the whole experience even more special than we could...
've hoped for.
From the start, Oz and the team were so warm and easy to talk to. It felt like they weren't just there to do a job, they really cared about making sure our day was captured perfectly. On the wedding day, they blended right in, making us laugh and feel totally comfortable in front of the camera.
And the film? Wow. We were blown away. They didn't just record the day; they told our story.
Watching it, we could feel every emotion all over again-the love, the laughter, even the little nervous moments we had before the ceremony. They even captured details we didn't notice in the moment, like the way the sunlight hit the flowers in the garden or how Ashley's dress moved as she walked.
Elpis Weddings truly has a gift for making everything look as beautiful as it feels. We can't thank them enough for giving us something so special to look back on. If you're thinking about hiring them, don't even hesitate. They'll take care of you like friends and create something you'll treasure forever. Thank you, Oz and the team-you guys are the best.

Their attention to detail was impeccable, capturing every moment beautifully and precisely. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of a top-notch videographers. My husband and I don’t really enjoy being on camera BUT the Elips wedding crew made it so natural. My 94 almost 95 year old grandpa wasn’t able to make it to the wedding but because the wedding videographer company is so legit and personal, he’s able to experience our special day 💕. That is something I can’t thank this company enough for!!! Thank you Thank you THANK YOU!!!

Title: More Than a Videographer – A Friend and Storyteller: Kudos to Oz and his team!
The journey of planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but finding Elpis Weddings was like di...
scovering a hidden gem. Right from our initial consultation, it was clear that they weren’t just here to document our day; they wanted to be a part of it. Working with Elpis Weddings felt less like hiring a vendor and more like gaining a friend and storyteller.
Oz took the time to understand our personalities, our quirks, and the nuances of our relationship.

Elpis weddings made me so happy! They went above and beyond our expectations and listened to our feedback to make sure we got the wedding video we dreamed of! Incredibly worth it, ...
and now i have a beautiful wedding video that I can cherish and keep forever. Their professionalism and eye for detail was a nice relief as the day of the wedding can be so hectic anyway. Thanks to them, I had one less thing to worry about as they handled it and delivered a video with beautiful cinematography. I cried the first time I watched it! They captured a very sweet moment with me and my parents. I am forever grateful for their hard work. 100% all the way!
I apologize for the previous review left by me, Eduardo R.
It was meant to be a 5 star review and not a 4 star because they were absolutely great!
We were super happy with the work...
they’ve done capturing our special day.
Something that’s a bit nerve-wracking is trying to find a good videographer for your wedding. And I think Elpis Weddings really did a great job. They’re super responsive and we lov...
ed the fact that they first wanted to meet us and find out what we were interested. I really recommend they’re services.
We loved having Ozgen and his team film our wedding - they were all so professional and went above and beyond on our special day. If we could give them 6 stars out of 5, we would. ...
We were able to meet with him before the wedding to go over our vision for the videography and he and his team executed it to a T. They were fun and easy to work with and clearly have passion for their work.
Elpis Weddings were so professional, punctual, and super nice. They are very detailed in their work. Their short videos are amazing!
Ozgen was so great to work with! Easy coordinating, excellent day-of attentiveness, and a beautiful deliverable (we ordered a ~5 min summary video). I would definitely recommend El...
pis Weddings for your wedding video needs! :)
The team at Elpis video were nothing short of fantastic! As anyone knows, the day of a wedding goes by in a flash and you are so busy soaking up every moment of the special day. Ha...
ving Oz and his team there to capture all of those fleeting moments on camera was truly something special. We were able to rewatch our whole ceremony and reception, which is something that was really important to us and not something many other videographers offer! They captured so many wonderful moments and I cannot thank or recommend them enough :)
We hired Elpis Weddings for our original 2020 wedding that became a 2021 wedding and let me say, these guys are GREAT. We were hooked after we saw some of their work online and jus...
t how different, unique and artistic everything looked while being well polished. We weren't originally going to have a videographer, but after viewing their work, we quickly changed our minds and I'm SO glad we did. They were extremely kind in pushing out our wedding date without any strings attached, made us feel special leading up to our big day and were so kind and professional on the day of. They are passionate about what they do and go out of their way to create a work of art. I was in tears watching our special day back and I guarantee you will be too. Book these guys and know that you will be getting not only quality footage, but you also will be working with some of the kindest and committed people around.
Where to start? This was purely a last minute decision that we were thankful we made! We originally didn’t have videography in mind but we couldn’t resist once we saw their videos ...
and reviews not to mention the price! This was easily the best decision we made. The team was wonderful! They were professional but at the same time relaxed and made everyone feel comfortable, it’s like their goal was to blend in the crowed, which they did very well. Our hope was to have a genuine, fun wedding (non of the rehearsed, posing or planned feel) and Elpiswedsings gave us exactly that. We had an initial meeting with ozgen and Serkan where we were asked all the right questions to get a feel of what we’d like to see, after that meeting we felt very confident hiring them to shoot our wedding.
On the wedding day they showed up ahead of schedule and pretty much stayed with us the entire night; the best part is we didn’t feel “watched” because they made us feel very comfortable during the photo shoot and were stealth during the wedding, which made us feel very relaxed and allowed us to be ourselves! Once we received the video, we couldn’t believe it, they captured exactly what our wedding was all about and we couldn’t help but smile every time we watched the highlights video. Their style of story telling was implacable, truly! It reflected exactly how we felt that day and every time we watched that video with a big smile on our faces it was like reliving the best day of our lives! I am very thankful to have stumbled up elpisweddings and I can’t stress enough on how highly I would recommend them.
We loved Elpis Weddings and we're so glad we chose them as our videographer. When we were browsing videographers, it was hard to find one that matched our style and what we wanted ...
but I felt that Elpis really fit the bill. They were such a pleasure to work with, they were genuinely kind and got to know us as a couple and were also professional. Our wedding was back in September and we recently received our videos so it did take a while but it was well worth the wait. We love our videos and all the details they captured, it really feels like we're reliving our wedding day.
They were the saving grace for my daughter’s quinceañera. They were so professional, friendly, and the most reliable of all the vendors I contracted with. They were very easy to w...
ork with and flexible with all the changing plans during COVID. They were always so understanding and offered their professional insights on the production. I will definitely refer them to as many people as I can.
I found Elpis Weddings on the Knot and we are so happy we did! We wanted someone who was experienced with wedding photos at SF City Hall. Serkan was very quick to respond via emai...
l and was helpful with the ropes at City Hall. His work is absolutely stunning and was so easy to work with. He made us feel very comfortable when posing for shots and was very patient with us, especially when I was over taking pictures because it was really tiring (who knew!) We highly recommend him. You will not be disappointed! Thank you so much, Serkan and Elpis Weddings! :)
This review is long overdue! We absolutely LOVE Elpis Weddings! Originally, my husband and I were not going to go with a videographer. But after seeing their work, we knew we had t...
o hire them. In hindsight, I'm so happy we did. Everyone tells you that you're wedding day is going to be a blur. I had no idea how true that was until it happened! By the end of our wedding night, my husband and I had no recollection of anything that had happened. Luckily, we had Elpis Weddings record the whole thing! :)
A couple months before our wedding, Oz and Serkan drove out to meet us in person in San Jose. They met us at our favorite sports bar, and my husband and I explained what our vision was for our wedding. They were the only wedding vendor to take the time to meet with us and actually hear what we wanted! I also appreciated that they drove all the way from San Francisco, just to get to know us!
On the day of our wedding, Serkan and Oz arrived early to scout the property and take some shots of the location. I was so happy that there was two of them! Serkan was able to get some shots of my husband getting ready, while Oz stayed with me and my girls. They also stayed until the very end of the night.
Our wedding video is absolutely gorgeous. In fact, many of our friends who are getting married in 2022 are now hiring a videographer, simply after seeing the beautiful video that Elpis Weddings put together for us.
Overall, I HIGHLY recommend Elpis Weddings. They were so kind, easy to work with, and made our day completely stress-free. They were also extremely reasonably priced for the quality of their work.
Thank you so much for everything, Oz and Serkan!!!
It was terrific working with Oz!
In addition to making a gorgeous and unique memento of our special day, Oz was a pleasure to work with in all the ways that matter: kind, detail-or...
iented, and professional.
Oz was proactive in setting up a time for us to meet, and made sure he understood the itinerary and went over the key shots, so as to be as unintrusive as possible on the big day.
He prepared and returned the materials to us in a timely manner, and we absolutely loved the final product.
A+, would hire again ... though hopefully that won't be necessary ;)
Oz, Serkan and team did an AMAZING job. It was honestly such a pleasure to work with them and have them shoot our wedding day. They are calm, nice, understanding and very detailed ...
which we truly appreciated. Thank you soooo much!!
Wow oz and his team were truly fantastic to work with for my wedding. They were SO calm, considerate, and very professional. They even stayed extra long to make sure they caught ev...
ery moment. The video turned out incredible and really made me so happy of my special day. I would work with them again and again many times over!! HIGHLY recommend!!
We ended up having a smaller wedding, and while we initially planned on not having a videographer, Elpis Weddings (and Oz) came highly recommended from our photographer, and after ...
speaking to him over the phone, felt immediately at ease and comfortable working with him. He was able to capture so many incredible and memorable moments that made our day great, so looking back now, I feel like I am able to relive my wedding day again and again. We are so thankful that Elpis Weddings was a part of our day, and highly recommend.
Thank you so much to Ozgen and his team for helping us recording and photo shooting my wedding event. I would highlight his professionalism and punctuality.
35Video was easy and painless to work with. I initially had hired them as my videographer, but when COVID hit, my wedding downsized from 80 to 10, with none of the traditional wedd...
ing activities, no in-person reception, or first dance, or people partying on the dance floor.
So we decided to live stream our wedding to our friends and family via Zoom. 35Video re-worked our package deal and instead provided live stream services for our wedding. We didnt have to do a thing. They coordinated the whole production, and used their equipment to clearly stream us visually and audibly to our online guests with very minimal glitches or hiccups. They were so flexible in working with us and making a change from videographing our wedding, to live streaming it instead.
They also threw in a bonus 1 minute video, that captured our day so perfectly with all its sweet moments, beautiful lighting and visuals from the gorgeous view from the mountain top venue, to the heartwarming gazes, kisses, and hugs from the Bride and Groom with their little 2.5 year old as well. The video may be short, but it was PERFECT and memorable.
If I had the opportunity to hold a longer and more vibrant wedding with all my loved ones outside of COVID, I would definitely use 35Video to capture the night and recommend them to anyone looking to have the heart of their wedding captured on video.
Thank you Tugrul and his team!
I booked 35Video b/c I was drawn by the style & feel of the example wedding videos on their site, & the relatively economic prices compared to other videography inquiries that I ma...
de.
Coordination was easily done through email communication & a single phone call before the wedding. During the phone call I was surprised when Tugrul said that he had gone to check out the venue beforehand, showing a strong commitment to excellence.
The day of, Tugrul & his team showed up on time, & were great to work with, getting in all the shots they needed without being overly intrusive.
I love the final results of the videos, the styling is beautiful, & everyone who's seen it is impressed. My brother who's a photography geek was very impressed with Tugrul & his team's equipment, & said that even the drone that he used was very new.
Overall I feel like I lucked out by taking a chance & booking 35Video when they don't have as many reviews as other established videographers, but ended up with amazing videos to capture my wedding day.
OMG! They are professionals. They take their work so seriously and they don't take a break. They don't miss any moment to capture. They behave harmoniously with each other and thei...
r environment. They are very personable as well. I highly recommend them. I asked if they provide a female videographer to capture some special moments. Guess what, they have a female videographer. She is so lovely. She has an amazing vision.They made us feel so comfortable the whole time. I cannot recommend the team here enough!
I recently proposed to my fiance and hired 35Video to capture the surprise. In the simplest terms 35Video blew me away with the flexibility, transparency, communication and respons...
iveness.
As this was a surprise we had to coordinate to ensure we were aligned on timing and location. Tugrul made himself available one week prior and went to the site with me to help me pick a spot that would capture the best pictures and videos.
As we approached the date we saw the weather would not be cooperating on the decided day so Tugrul was able to move things around and accommodate me one day earlier.
The day of the proposal the weather started to change; Tugrul texted me and let me know that they may not be able to use the drone but would do their best. Despite the high winds and slight rain that could damage the equipment Tugrul still managed to have the drone up to capture this important milestone in my life.
I was very pleased with the service, 35video went above and beyond and I will be using them for another shoot prior to the wedding.
I think I have watched our wedding video at least 100 times. I’m in awe of the attention to detail they put into it the video. I couldn’t imagine if I had chosen another videograph...
er. It simply wouldn’t have been the same. Everyone that has watched the video is highly impressed. They made everything so easy, and I felt very reassured that my special day was in very good hands. I was really impressed with the precise timing they edited the music to each moment. They brought alive the soundtrack to our beautiful day. They way the told the story is better than I could’ve ever dream of. Thank you so much.
