First Look Photo and Video

Emily and Mark were awesome. We used them for our wedding in Charlotte in October and we were left with amazingly beautiful photos in a massive digital gallery, as well as the most incredible video feature from the day. We've watched our feature back at least ten times and my wife and I both cry every time. Emily and Mark have since moved to Charleston so if you're in the Charleston, SC area we highly recommend!

I was in search of a videographer for our October 2022 wedding and am so lucky Emily was available! From our first phone call we clicked! She created a fun and exciting atmosphere on our wedding day. We cannot wait to see the videos! If Emily is available to capture your wedding day- book her! You won’t regret it!

We would definitely recommend Emily and First Look! She was such a sweet, positive energy before and during our wedding day. Emily took the time to get to know my husband and I before the wedding day. She made our dream of the wedding video a reality. We will be recommending First Look to all of our family and friends!

Working with Emily was such an easy and fun process from start to finish. We decided to get a videographer towards the end of our planning process and now we know that getting a videographer and picking Emily were two of the best decisions we made. She was comforting and knowledgeable throughout the entire planning process which really helped to build our confidence. We also found that one of Emily's biggest strengths was her direction on the day of. She made it such a fun process to capture memorable moments and she helped to direct our photographer for wonderful shots. Finally (and certainly not least) the video came out AMAZING!!! It is so spectacular to watch the wedding back and to relive all of the great memories with a beautiful soundtrack. If you're on the fence about getting a videographer, this is your sign to get one and to choose First Look! https://vimeo.com/720477065

Emily is amazing!! From the initial phone call to the wedding day she made us feel so comfortable and went above and beyond! She is so talented and captured such incredible moments throughout our day. She made us laugh and was extremely helpful directing us - it was truly so fun working with her! When we received our wedding film we were blown away - the lighting, the audio/music, and her vision was better than we could have ever imagined. We love it so much - she is seriously the best!!! Thank you Emily!

First Look Photo and Video gave us more than we could ever imagine. Videos that we will cherish forever! We almost didn’t book a videographer for our wedding but am so glad we did! They were very professional and made us feel so comfortable/natural throughout the entire process.

If you are thinking about having a wedding video make, you must hire First Look Photo and Video! I cannot say enough good things about our wedding video. Her videography skills and the final product went above and beyond my expectations. Our video perfectly captured our wedding day from all the minor details to the big things like our vows , first dance and speeches. The footage was AMAZING! We are so happy that we have this amazing video to look back on and remember one of the best days of our lives. I cannot thank and recommend Emily enough!

Amazing, very personable and fun to be around. Felt like I knew her for years when I met her. It’s fun to see her and her husband working together as photographer and videographer. The video was the most perfect, and it really felt like I was back there that day when I watched it - even friends and family who couldn’t be there told me it brought them to tears and they felt they were there. They gave us hreat direction and made us feel very comfortable - especially coming from two people who don’t love being in photos. There isn’t a single thing I don’t link about my photos or my video.

Emily and Mark did an exceptional job on capturing memories of my daughter's wedding. Emily's photography skills are amazing. The engagement photos were beautiful and then the beauty she captured of my daughter in her bridal portrait session is absolutely breathtaking. The photos from the wedding and reception were stunning. She captured the whole feel of the day in every photo that she took. Mark's video was just the keepsake that we wanted and will thoroughly enjoy watching it for many years to come. You cannot go wrong with them and the work they do.

Emily's videos are fantastic! She delivered our video so quickly and the end result was better than I could have hoped for.

From the level of communication, conducting day of & return of BEAUTIFUL photos; I'm HIGHLY recommending First Look Photo & Video. I was blown away by the amount of effort & care put into our wedding day. This team knows how to hustle, capturing every sweet moment of the day. Thank you again for all of the hard work!

Emily was great! She was super responsive and flexible with our 2020 wedding madness of changing venues just a few months before the wedding! She sent out the video so fast and it is amazing! I love her personality and she made it easy for us!

Wish I could give more stars! Emily was AMAAAAAAZING!! She was so friendly and easy going. Our wedding video is more than perfect! She did such a great job, and got it back to us super quick!! Would definitely recommend First Look!!!

Emily was the BEST videographer she is so personable and so much fun to work with! She captured our special day so well and was so flexible with us when covid caused us to have to move our original wedding date.

Emily is hands down THE best videographer in the game! She is so much fun to work with and her videos are incredible!!! I’m going to book her for every single event in the future! She was such a great joy to be around during our wedding day!

Emily is wonderful! Professional, fun, and wow does she know her stuff. She made working with her seamless. She is unbelievably responsive, and made the day just so much more fun. I cannot recommend her enough- a true gem to work with.

We were on the fence about hiring a videographer because we had already spent so much money on our wedding. Then 2 weeks before our wedding my maid of honor told me it would be a huge mistake. I took her advice and found First Look Photo and Video on Google. After a couple phone calls I knew Emily would be a good fit for us. Well......we are so happy we hired her. The video came out fantastic and we will have it forever to share with family and friends.

Due to Covid many family members could not make it to our wedding so we knew we had to hire someone special to capture our wedding. First Look Photo and Video's films really stood out to us and after talking to Emily on the phone we knew she was the one. Now we have a beautiful film to share with all our friends and family that couldn't make it to our special day.

Omg our video blew us away! Emily was so helpful with everything on our wedding day. She even helped my grandma up the stairs. I can't say enough kind things about her. If you are looking at other videographers STOP RIGHT NOW! First Look Photo and Video is the best hands down. Mic drop!

I was told by a friend First Look Photo and Video did amazing work and I should check them out. After viewing their work and speaking to Emily on the phone I knew she had to be my videographer. Emily was such a pleasure to work with and did an amazing highlight video for me! I am telling all of my friends to book her for their wedding!

Emily is fantastic! Not only does she put your mind at ease before the wedding, but she also has a blast during the process! I enjoyed talking with her and really loved working for her. Not to mention our video is my favorite thing EVER! You will not be disappointed working with Emily!

I knew Emily would be the perfect photographer along with her husband (videographer) to capture our special day from our initial phone call. She had lots of ideas and recommendations! I love looking through our photos and I can’t watch the video without crying. She fit right in with the bridal party and captured everything perfectly. I would choose First Look Photo and Video again in a heartbeat!

Even though I have watched my wedding video over 1,000 times, I still get the chills and cry every time. I would hire her again in a heart beat! She made the process super easy before and during the wedding. I cannot say enough about how amazing the video is, too. Emily did such an amazing job capturing every part of the day. Without even noticing her during the wedding, she noticed every detail about my husband and I. Thank you Emily!!!

Emily was such a joy to work with! She is very patient and professional and I was thrilled to have her at my wedding! Thank you so much for capturing our special day! I highly recommend Emily!

Can’t recommend her enough! If you are looking for high quality footage of your big day for the best price in the area, book with First Look! Emily showed up early and snuck in some extra video shooting before our scheduled start. When we were asked to stop filming in a park (before our first look reveal), Emily stood up for us and was able to get the shots we wanted. Everything about our favorite day is captured beautifully in her work, with details like voice clips from father-of-the-bride, maid of honor, and best man speeches. Our family and friends have raved about the final product and we can’t wait to watch and relive our wedding for years to come!

My husband and I decided late in the game to book a videographer - just two months before our big day. We are so glad that we decided to have Emily film our wedding! She did an amazing job of capturing the small details from our big day while also creating a video that fully encompasses the vibe of our wedding day! I love how Emily worked with me to make sure she included all the highlights from our ceremony and reception - from our vows, to the toasts, to our grand exit. The quality of the video and editing is top notch. She even worked with my mom and me after the fact to make sure all our family was included in the video. We couldn’t be more thrilled with how our wedding video turned out! If anyone is on the fence, I would certainly encourage you to book your videographer through First Look. I’m amazed at what a great deal we got and I know that our video is something we will treasure forever! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Emily was a dream to work with through the planning process and on our perfect wedding day! She had great ideas and recommendations during our initial phone call and I immediately knew she was the right choice to capture our perfect day. She was extremely friendly and her personality helped us all feel so comfortable while she was filming various parts of our day. She sent our completed video in under 3 weeks and it perfectly captured so many beautiful moments from our wedding. We could not be happier with the whole process and the final result!

I seriously can’t say enough great things about Emily. My wedding video turned out absolutely PERFECT! Additionally, Emily was super easy to work with. She was so fun and easy going, everyone in the wedding party adored her and had so much for being shot by her. Thanks Emily!!

Emily has a true talent! She captured all the important moments on my husband and my wedding day! We were totally ecstatic with our video! I'm so grateful I found her, she went above and beyond and is so down to earth! I felt I had known her my whole life!

Emily was amazing!!! She was creative in her ideas and would make commentary while recording to help you relax and have fun with it. She was truly a joy to work with and gave us an incredible experience and video. Thank you Emily!

Emily was absolutely amazing. We originally did not have a videographer and last minute hired Emily. It was the best money we spent! Everywhere I looked Emily was right there capturing every moment and made the final video absolutely perfect. Every detail was beyond our wildest dreams. We are so grateful for her talent and she was so great to work with. Thank you for the bottom of our hearts Emily for capturing our day so we can re-live it again and again.

Absolutely amazing! When my husband and I were starting to plan our wedding, we knew we wanted not only photography but video as well. After talking with so many vendors, we just couldn't find one that was in our budget. Luckily, we found First Look. From our first phone call to the day of the wedding it was nothing but easy with Emily and her team. We had some last minute changes that needed to happen the day of due to weather but Emily and her team just rolled with the punches. It was amazing! Our photos and video for the wedding are absolutely amazing. I'm in love with each and every one of them. I couldn't be happier!

All I can say is WOW. I knew from the beginning of wedding planning that I really wanted a videographer. Well they can be very expensive and the cheaper ones did not have the best videos. Cue Emily.. I found the perfect mix of affordable and BEAUTIFUL videos. On my big day, she was wonderful. She was everywhere catching everything.. without me even noticing her all the time. Then a couple weeks later, I have my amazing wedding video back. I shout from the rooftops that you should book Emily as your wedding videographer!!

My wife and I couldn't be any happier with our wedding highlight video from First Look Photo and Video! Emily did such a great job and was so fun to work with on our wedding day. We were trying to spend as little as possible with our wedding and First Look Photo and Video was such a great deal for the quality of work, so we went with them. I can honestly say I wouldn't have chosen anyone else. If you're hesitant to choose First Look Photo and Video because you think you need to spend a lot of $$$ to get good quality work, they are the exception to the rule. The quality of the video is amazing and is exactly what we were hoping for. Thank you Emily! -Justin and Chelsea

I didn't want just any videographer, I wanted one that cared and would fulfill my vision of capturing my wedding. Emily did just that. She sent me the perfect timeline weeks before my wedding to really plan everything perfect. On the wedding day she was timely and efficient in getting all the shots. She was also a lot of fun with helping me a Brad do poses. Please don't just book anyone, talk to Emily before settling for something less. Couldn't possibly be an happier with my video.

I wanted to hire a photography and videography company and it was hard finding one that had work that I both liked. Then I found First Look Photo and Video. Their prices were fantastic and the quality of their work was top notch. So glad we booked them. Everything came our great! Big thumbs up!

Beautiful, stunning, timeless. That is how I would describe the film that First Look sent me. They captured all the details I asked for and more. The drone work was impressive and it was a fantastic upgrade. The drone really captured the mountain scenery over the Villa. Couldn't ask for more. Would recommend highly.

We really couldn't decide if we were going to get videography or not so we put out some feelers. Once we spoke to Emily at First Look Photo and Video we were convinced that it would be a mistake not to get video. Fast forward to our wedding date and then getting our video and it was well worth the investment. We know now that not only us but our friends and family can not only see but hear the memorable moments from our wedding day forever!

We looked around for quite a while to find the perfect videographer and we finally stumbled across First Look Photo and Video. When we made the phone consult Emily immediately put us at ease and made me feel comfortable and confident in my decision. We are so happy we decided to book her and our video came our fantastic. We would recommend First Look Photo and Video to anyone looking for a great wedding videographer.

Omg our video was amazing! Emily is the best. She was so friendly when we met. We immediately bonded about dogs and our fondness for the 80s when we met over coffee. She really impressed us with the quality of our video and the fast delivery. I have already shared it with all my friends and family.

Emily is unbelievable!! We decided just a few months before our wedding that we wanted to add a videographer for our special day, and it couldn't have been a better decision! We were on a tight budget and she worked with us to give us exactly what we wanted. Not only was she professional and easy to work with, but so fun! Everyone had nothing but compliments to give about her and if I could go back in time and do this all over again, the only thing I would change is having her with us longer....because she's SO WORTH IT!! If you want a wedding video that will bring you to tears and allow you to relive your day over and over again, First Look Photo and Video is a NO BRAINER!! And she had our 25 minute video to us in under 1 month!! Thank you so much Emily for making our wedding day so special!!! So much love!

We could not be happier with First Look photo and video. Mark & Emily were always available for questions or issues during the planning process. They were an absolute pleasure to have capture our special day. We are so happy we chose to do a video, too! Everything came out great and our family loves it. I would highly recommend!

From start to finish they were great to work with. Our video came out amazing. Most of all my father, who couldn't make it to the wedding got to see it. I'm so happy with First Look Photo and Video.

First Look Photo and Video did an amazing job filming my daughter's wedding. The videographer was so fun to work with and helped us move the day along since we didn't have a wedding planner. We absolutely loved our video!

We looked at several other videographers and decided to go with First Look Photo and Video. They were quick to answer our emails, easy to talk to on the phone and on the wedding day they were fun to work with. They also helped keeping things in order, as things get hectic on your wedding day. The video turned out amazing, we are so happy we choose them.

We are so happy we hired First Look Photo and Video to do our wedding photography. They really captured those intimate moments that we will cherish for a lifetime. They also helped us with our wedding timeline and making sure things went at a good pace during our wedding.

I hired First Look Photo and Video to shoot my daughter's wedding video. They were so much fun to work with, and they did a wonderful job. We got our video 6 weeks after the wedding. We are so happy we choose them for our daughter's special day.

Excellent from beginning to end, professional and very friendly...totally made our wedding day extra smooth. The finish work is unforgettable!!! Highly recommend!

My wife and I were on a tight budget for our wedding but we didn't want to miss out on getting our wedding filmed. We found First Look Photo and Video and we decided to choose them. At first we were a little nervous that the quality wouldn't be the same as a more expensive videographer but our worries were put to bed as soon as the videographer for First Look arrived. The professionalism was outstanding and we could tell a lot of effort was being put into our video. The end result was incredible. My wife and I couldn't stop watching and our friends and family felt the same. I'm so glad we were able to budget this in to our wedding day! I highly recommend First Look Photo and Video

First Look Photo and Video did a wonderful job on our wedding day. Our video came out fantastic! We got it only a few weeks after our wedding and have been showing it to all my co-workers and friends.

My husband and I were on a tight budget and found First Look. They had great prices and great looking work. We had a phone consultation with them and booked them for video. We couldn't have been happier with our decision. The videographer was a pleasure to work with on our wedding day and our video came out amazing. I would recommend First Look Photo and Video to anyone.
