I am here to say Trenton Foster did amazing on our film. If you want a FILM done please reach out to FilmLife. If you would like a simple video shot with elevator music if that’s y...
our style please look elsewhere. These films are very personalized and the effort that goes into them is not overlooked at all. Turnaround time for a film while other films are being made and other weddings and events are being filmed is not going to be a month, it will take time. Understand that if you want a personalized love story of a film with beautiful color grading, very detailed and open communication with your vendor, and a true sense of comfortability with your film maker/ videographer PLEASE come here!!! I highly recommend this videographer to everyone I know. The investment is worth it, trust me please. I couldn’t have felt more excited and I have never had someone who even has known me my whole life be able to know what my marriage is made up of - the different vibes. But Trenton got it out of my husband and I- even the vulnerability, in such a beautiful way. Trenton was always transparent about pricing and the investment & after looking at all the prep work and work that goes on afterwards- FilmLife was worth it. 100%.
So professional and really care to get to know the couple as a whole before their big day. I only have a teaser and I’m already satisfied with the results from our big day
Trenton was amazing. We were unsure if we wanted to book a videographer or not at first and couldn't be happier we did. As he arrived, he was respectful, kind, caring and you cou...
ld tell he was passionate about his videos. At the end of our wedding he gave us a sneak peak, which I'm still blown away on how he was able to edit that quickly. Having a videographer was the best decision we made, and having Trenton was the best gift we received.
I had the pleasure of working with Trenton for my first styled photo shoot. He was very professional and he made the entire process so effortless. I had already heard from everyone...
else how talented and fun he was. I was blown away when he uploaded all the pics and videos from our shoot. I will definitely recommend his services.
We had the pleasure of working with Trenton for wedding on 4/16/22. I CANNOT emphasize how AMAZING Trenton was. We met with him to talk about our timeline and he brought so many di...
fferent ideas to capture our day. He is very creative and great at what he does. His work left us in happy tears at the end of our wedding when he surprised us with a teaser of our day. He is supper pleasant to work with, responses very quickly to messages and made sure our day was captured from the beginning to end. If you are looking for a great videographer that can make you laugh, emotional and tell you what to do add a bit more of spark to your video, stop looking and go with Trenton.
Trenton and Bethany are magic makers. They are incredibly passionate and thoughtful storytellers. We appreciate their detailed approach and story sessions leading up to the wedding...
day. The combination of both prepared us mentally and emotionally for our big day.
We love that our wedding video represented us as a couple and captured our true personalities. We’re impressed with all the details they added throughout our wedding film, including shots of all our friends and family (something important to us) and flashback videos. Some of those moments that we didn't even know that happened, and now they are moments we’ll get to cherish forever.
Don't think twice about hiring Film Life Moments; it's worth the investment and then some. The only regret I have is not buying more add-on packages. Cody and I highly recommend Trenton and Bethany for all your videography needs! Thank you again for everything!
Slow-Motion Video Booth FOR THE WIN! We loved it and our guests were absolutely obsessed with it! It was such a fun experience and value-add for our big day. It's even more fun wat...
ching the highlight reel over and over. I highly recommend this add-on by Film Life Moments - it was the highlight of the night!

Don't hesitate to book them for your Wedding or next event! Those still shots and Instagram teasers are just the tip of the iceberg. Trenton's work really is brilliant!
I HIGHLY recommend Trenton due to his professionalism, social media presence, FAST edits, and thorough and beautiful footage. I didn't plan on getting a videographer, and actually ...
booked one at the last minute a few months before. I am SO grateful I made the decision to have a videographer. It helps you relive every moment, but also makes all of the details (like your decor, flowers, etc) really come to life. It is worth the money.

Our pre-meeting was very thorough. Throughout the entire process and wedding day Trenton was very professional, direct, and friendly. We enjoyed working with him day of!
He was extremely fast editor and was generous enough to gift us with an awesome social media teaser within 48 hours after our wedding! So grateful for that. He also provided day of social media snippets for us throughout the day.
When I went back to look at the RAW footage I was so impressed that he had been using multiple cameras and angles through the entire day to get every detail, every important moment, but also cover all of the shot from multiple angles to ensure nothing was missed. It was all so beautiful and I hadn't even noticed he had been doing that the whole time!
Thanks Trenton!
We didn't receive our 5 min highlight video until 9.5 months after our wedding. In that amount of time I could have had a baby. When we initially signed a contract with them there ...
was no timeframe listed as a guarantee. This should have been a red flag but as first time wedding planners we didn't know better! In conversation, they said 4-6 months was their turnaround time, which already felt long, but it took MUCH longer for us to receive it! All the while, they showed off on social media several 2019 same day wedding videos! It was a slap in the face to see they were already working on 2019 weddings when they hadn't started our 2018 wedding film. It's horrible customer service and a terrible business model. When we finally saw our wedding video, did we like it? Yes. Honestly, it's nice. I will give credit where it's due. But after 9.5 months it should've been a cinematic masterpiece. Friends and family liked it but commented "that's it?" and "why'd that take 9.5 months to finish?" It took away from any wow factor.
After we solidified our timeline with our coordinator and run through what we wanted captured on film with Trenton, it seemed like we might run into an issue capturing our dessert moment on film. Not wanting to bust our budget, we asked about adding on 30 minutes to build in a buffer in case things ran late. Trenton wasn't willing to accommodate us and said they only bill in 1 hour increments. That made no sense. We weren't asking for a discount, just to cut the time in half and to pay half. This was disappointing and made us alter our timeline again, adding to additional stress in the final week leading up to the wedding.
On the wedding day, they stopped by the bridal suite to capture some getting ready shots and a card reading. Unfortunately the shots they wanted took much longer than we had allotted for (even after going over the timeline with Trenton), so the bridal party left the hotel 45+ minutes later than we had planned. This set back the first look, made everyone feel very rushed, and cut out much of our pre-wedding photo time with family. Vendors should not be the source of stress for a bride on her wedding day.
It was clear to us that they didn't work well with our photographer, with whom we had spent time with discussing our shot lists and timeline. It seemed like they were constantly competing for shots, which led to tension. They also put mics on us in visible locations which slowed down the photo taking process because our photographer kept having to move them. Because they didn't take the time to talk to our photographer ahead of time, they left the area during our after ceremony photos and then came back after only to require more time of us away from our friends and family. This led my groom and I to miss all of cocktail hour.
When they stopped by the bridal suite to capture getting ready footage, they clipped a mic on me that recorded all the way through our ceremony. This was unnecessary and captured private conversations and even moments in the restroom! This felt like a total violation of privacy as I played it back. They should have been more intentional about turning my microphone on/off like they did with the groom.
Our experience working with Trenton & Bethany left much more to be desired. While their videography skills are there, until they are able to step up their client interactions and be more transparent about video production time I would go elsewhere for your videography needs.

led and so happy with our wedding video. I can’t wait to watch this every year on our anniversary!
My husband and I decided to take on the responsibility of planning our own wedding instead of spending it on a planner. Taking on that responsibility brought us some worry but the ...
amount of professionalism, consideration and care Trenton from Awesome Future Productions was so comforting! I am more than happy with the work that was done and the service that was given to us.

ith high quality video resolution. My husband and I really liked Trenton's professionalism and how quick he was to respond to any of our questions. He also helped me organize an outline for the day of events. He was so helpful and great!
Trenton and Bethany did an amazing job with our video and they are super easy to get along with!
We met Trenton over emails and hired them to do our video before ever meeting them...
in person.
We met Trenton the day before our wedding. He came for a walk through the day after his vacation and was super easy to explain what we wanted and how the day was planned out.
We had them at our wedding from 2pm-ish to 11pm-ish. We got our first preview of our video about a month-ish after our wedding, but before that, they posted on their social media little snippets of the day and they got some super adorable stills of me with my dog (who is basically the center of my world) and it was unexpected and really sweet! So make sure to follow them on Insta.
They did a 15 second, instagram video, which I also shared on my socials and then we got our 5 minute short to share with family on FB, again LOVED IT!
The day we actually got our entire video, was about 3-ish months after the wedding. They are super quick!
Cute and funny thing about our video is our first dance. We did not practice our dance all the way through and we basically winged it the day of. Well, it was a bit of an uncoordinated disaster and me and my husband had our first "fight" trying to direct one another, all the while he still had the mic on (LOL). They did a fantastic job editing that part and making it seem like to was a very romantic moment, when in fact, it was the most stressful 3.5 minutes of our entire day!
I didn't really notice them there during the ceremony, but again, you don't really notice anyone when you are walking down the isle or saying your I do's. They were with me and my inappropriate sense of humor for the entire time I was getting dressed and they captured some really sweet getting ready moments.
They also take direction very well! I have a weird facial paralysis thing and I told them to keep focus on my left side of the face as much as possible and that is exactly what they did. I didn't cringe as much as I usual do when I see my face on camera, define plus!
They are super affordable and super easy to work with! If you are thinking of getting a professional video made of your day, definitely do! Don't skip out on it, the day and night fly by so fast, you will want something to remind you of your wedding and see some of the things you might have missed.
Trenton and Bethany produced a beautiful video for our wedding. Showing it to family and friends they said it was a perfect representation of the day and the love that was in the a...
ir. The video was heartfelt and definitely got myself and others watching it a little teary eyed. I hardly even noticed that they were there and that's big because we wanted a video that was natural yet romantic. They were diligent about capturing all the big moments that were important to us and for that I am very grateful. I highly recommend them!
These guys did Awesome! My wife and I were blown away by our wedding video! Leading up to the wedding I was really on the fence on about having a videographer, I was concerned abou...
t having too many people with camera's running around and getting in the way of everything, or the videographer and photographer stepping on each other's toes. But none of this was a problem! Trenton and Bethany did a superb job of capturing great shots while not getting in the way of the moment. During the day I hardly even realized they were there, and at the same time they got great shots that made for the best wedding video I could imagine. I would recommend them to anyone!
