Ivan is amazing! From the beginning, the booking process was easy, he was very accessible and responsive. He made sure he knew all the details and things we wanted captured. The day of our wedding he captured every single thing we could possibly imagine, he is so good at what he does that you could hardly even tell he is there capturing every moment. Within a couple of weeks of our wedding we got our highlight video and our documentary video! Very timely and such amazing work! He definitely has an eye for what he does and you can tell he loves capturing the happiest and most important moments of your life. Thank you Ivan for your hard work! And giving us an amazing video we can look back to and feel like we’re getting married all over again! I 1000% recommend him to anyone looking for a videographer for their special day!

Ivan and Cesar did the photo and video for my wedding on 6/20/24 in El Paso, TX. Let me start by saying that booking Ivan and Cesar was one of the BEST decisions I made for my wedd...
ing. They both are incredibly talented.
My experience with their service:
In the months leading up to my wedding day, there was consistent and readily available communication when needed. I never had an issue getting in contact with him via phone or email in a timely manner (1-2 days response time). Prior to our wedding Ivan made confirmed our "list" of photos/video we know we wanted to ensure he would be able to capture it. On the day of the wedding, he and Cesar were both on time, professional in staying "on schedule" with the events of the day, and respectful to everyone. It took 2-3 weeks to receive my photos and video. It was much faster than I was anticipating and the quality did not suffer from it either! After receiving them, I realized there were additional photos that I wanted and had a few edit requests. Ivan and Cesar were able to get them to me in less than 2 weeks. So from wedding day to final photos/video was about one month! They are wonderful to work with, transparent, and trustworthy. I believe that they VERY reasonably priced for the quality of their work.
My photos and video:
After a few edits and additions, I absolutely LOVE my photos and videos. They came out PERFECT. They captured wonderful moments of one of the best days of my life. I am so thankful to have hired and worked with them. If you would like to see their work from my wedding, here are the links: https://cesarespinosa.pixieset.com/alexisandcody/

My recommendation:
I would recommend them to any and everyone! Ivan is INCREDIBLY patient, fair, detail oriented, and professional. I have said it before, they are both very talented at what they do. However, you can hire anyone based on their talent and skills, but you should hire them because of the quality of their character, integrity, and have a genuine passion for what they do.

Ivan and Cesar went above and beyond for my wife and I for our wedding. They were flexible with our schedule. LGBTQ friendly 🫶🏼 Their price for both video and photography fit in ...
our budget and they made us feel very comfortable. We are a military couple and hired them while being overseas. They helped relieve so much wedding stress and even went out of their own comfort zone a little bit to do some photos with a warm tone like we wanted. I would recommend them to absolutely anyone needing wedding photos or videography in Southern New Mexico or even El Paso. They will not disappoint.

every detail that you wouldn't think about. Both the highlight video and wedding documentary captured all of the moments that anyone would love to remember. The videos were bright and airy and perfect for how I want to remember my wedding day. If you're on the fence about a wedding videographer, Ivan is definitely worth hiring you won't be disappointed with his editing and videography.

Ivan literally brought tears to my eyes. My husband and I never take photos and these guys made us so comfortable and look like models on a wedding magazine cover, seriously! Everything was edited SO beautifully, and I’m so glad that we picked Ivan Espinosa Films to cover our wedding. 10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND!

Ivan was so great to work with. From the very first interaction to the very last - fast responses, very professional and willing to work with you to customize a package for your sp...
ecial day.
At the start of wedding planning, I was unsure about hiring a videographer due to the constant recording making me nervous. Looking back, I am so happy we invested in hiring Ivan as our videographer. You can tell he is passionate about his work by the way he moves around to get the perfect angles. He shows excitement as he works and would compliment us- all building up more anticipation to see the final product.
In a little over a week, he delivered our highlight film. It was just perfect. As the couple getting married, it’s difficult to be present in every moment. The film allowed us the see just how beautiful our wedding day truly was.
We highly recommend engaged couples to hire Ivan to capture your special day. You won’t be disappointed. In the words of my Husband, “Best Videographer Ever!”

eo with such professionalism. We even were connected with lapel microphones to pick up our conversations/speeches. We didn’t have the luxury of time to have a big photography package (i.e. pre-ceremony shots) but he did a good job with the post-ceremony photos. I was surprised by how efficiently they did everything.
