I was told that I would have a preview video and the rest of the videos in 4-6 weeks. It has almost been five months now and I get no information or updates. I way overpaid for this service and he broke the contract I signed with him. incredibly poor service, I would avoid especially after seeing similar reviews on Yelp.

We are SO HAPPY we found Nico to be our wedding videographer. He was so easy to work with and took the time to get to know us before our big day. He was so open to our ideas, vision, and preferences throughout the process too. On the day of, he helped make things go smoothly with the photographer (a separate vendor) and we were able to just relax without worrying about logistics.
Our highlight reel was AMAZING, and we have been watching it over and over. The quality and the thoughtfulness shines through.
We highly recommend Nico to every bride/groom, you won’t be disappointed!

Nico was amazing to work with! He did such a great job of telling the story of our wedding day and we couldn't have been happier with how our wedding video turned out! He really knows how to find the perfect moments and sync them with the music. Thank you so much Nico!

I am so happy we hired Nico to capture our wedding. He stuck with us through multiple reschedulings (due to the pandemic) and ultimately covered our wedding celebration 2+ years after we originally booked him. The video highlight really captured the day, and we are grateful to have the full recordings of all the important moments - ceremony, dances, and toasts. Nico delivered amazing videos for a great price.

Nico was incredible to work with for our wedding. In reading so many articles and listening to my friends who had gotten married, the biggest regret seemed to be not hiring a videographer. If you're questioning it, don't question it anymore. Hire a videographer and hire Nico!
He was incredibly professional from the first email, to the day of the wedding, and then to producing the final video (WHICH WAS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL and made my cry, in the good way). He's truly talented and so creative with his shots--catching some breathtaking moments that I will cherish forever. He worked seamlessly with our photographer and other vendors to allow for a flawless day.
His editing style truly captures the wedding day. I have watched the video over and over again. I am so thankful to Nico and his creativity and vision for our wedding day!

Nico was one of our favorite vendors to work with for our wedding! He was professional but relaxed and did a fantastic job capturing all of the special moments on our wedding day. I was very impressed with how nicely he paired the music with the footage and how the videos he produced had this very romantic and magical feel to them. Additionally, his pricing points are great. My husband and I did a lot of research into videographers for our wedding and decided to move forward with La Luna due to the production quality of the videos, value for your money, and the opportunity to support a small business. We would absolutely hire Nico again in a heartbeat and are so happy with our decision. We were thrilled with how both our teaser and full video turned out and I still get butterflies watching these videos!

Nico was a truly wonderful videographer, and did an amazing job pairing with our photographer who he had never met before. Our wedding’s highlight video that he made captured all of our favorite moments of the day, and we are so grateful for all of the raw video he took of the ceremony, speeches, and dances. Nico remained unobtrusive during the whole day, which allowed us to be fully present in the moment, and all of his footage of it was phenomenal. I highly recommend choosing La Luna Productions for any videography needs because of Nico’s professionalism and care put into his work.

Nico was punctual, a great communicator, professional, and really awesome. We booked him about a year out from our wedding, and the whole process with him was smooth, especially considering that for several months we were navigating a pandemic. I only have positive things to say about working with him!

Nico was easy to work with, responsive, and he has great artistic vision. We were incredibly pleased with the final product of wedding event videos and we could not have found a better videographer. It was an overall great experience. We were contemplating on not having a videographer but after consulting with Nico we were so grateful to acquire his services within our budget. You will not regret hiring Nico. We can now revisit our memories that were captured on camera and cherish them forever. We give Nico our highest recommendation! Thank you Nico!

Nico was amazing to work with from start to finish. Finding the right videographer can be a difficult process because it takes a lot of research and conversations to find the right one, but we got extremely lucky with Nico. After watching some of his sample videos, we felt very excited about his style and quality.
Nico was always on time, worked really well with our photographers and was prompt in sharing the completed video with us after the wedding.
I would highly recommend Nico to anyone who is looking for a wedding videographer (or any other special occasions).
Thanks Nico!

We didn't initially plan on a videographer, but my grandmother's health took a turn just a few weeks before the wedding. I still wanted to be able to share the day with her but we didn't have a lot of time. Nico understood exactly what we needed and jumped on board with short notice. He was friendly, kind, and professional, worked seamlessly with our coordinator and photographer, and got us an amazing quality video on an incredibly tight timeline—and I was able to watch it with my grandmother. His contribution to our day and how we'll remember it has been invaluable.

We love our wedding video by La Luna Productions! It was a last minute decision to hire a videographer. We were so glad we found Nico to capture our special day. The only thing we regret was not getting the full package and getting two videographers. The video still came out amazing and we got so many compliments. But pay for the full package deal you won’t regret it. Nico was super easy to work with and very professional. We appreciate all the work he put into our video and will cherish it forever!

My husband and I are so pleased that we had Nico record our special day. Nico is very professional and anytime I had a question he was always quick to reply which meant a lot to me especially when planning the wedding, it took off a lot to stress knowing that he was on top of everything and we were on the same page. My husband and I were on a tight budget, we saw his beautiful edited videos and fell in love, unfortunately we were on a tight budget so we went with the raw footage but we are so pleased with his videos! He captured every single special moment that we needed and the image quality in the video is fantastic!! Nico is very professional and punctual, we were watching our wedding video within about 2 weeks of our special day. I highly recommend Nico to anyone looking for a videographer for their wedding whether it be those amazing videos he has on his site or raw footage he does great work!

We are so happy with the video footage from our wedding! Nico was amazing and really worked hard to make sure we got all of the shots we wanted. We got our video very soon after our wedding and love how seamlessly all of the highlights fit together! I highly recommend La Luna for your wedding video!

We couldn’t be happier with our wedding video!!! I got married 11/3/17 in San Francisco, Ca and we hired Nico and La Luna Productions do our wedding video. It turned out fantastic, he did a great job of encapsulating all of the emotions of one of the best days of our lives. Nico is a true professional and is willing to work with you and your vision and make bigger and even more grand than what you originally planned. He just has a natural knack for choice shots/editing/music. Very simply put, he is very talented.
The whole reason I went with Nico & La Luna productions is because I saw one of his wedding videos that was shared on Facebook, it literally brought me to tears, I was so moved by it. I knew at that moment, when I got married, I would hire him & La Luna Productions to do my wedding.
I’m forever grateful to Nico and La Luna Productions. Now we have a lasting memory that we can rewatch whenever we want, highly recommend!!

I truly can't say enough about Nico's talents! He was a very last-minute addition to our Cinco de Mayo wedding since our previous vendor went out of business. He was so easy to work with, was very considerate to our budget, and returned the most amazing video. He captured such amazing, high-quality footage and a video that required very little editing. We will forever be grateful to have Nico with us on our wedding day. He's a joy to work with and I highly recommend him!

My experience working with Nico from La Luna Productions could not have been better. We hired Nico to shoot our wedding this winter and the results were better than we could have imagined. Nico really took the time to put together a video we will cherish forever. Thanks La Luna!

The wedding video La Luna created for us was absolutely amazing- everything we could have asked for. The footage captured the feelings and events of the day perfectly. The more we watch it, the more we love it. Nico also worked quickly, we were able to see our video soon after the wedding. I highly recommend La Luna for wedding (and other special occasion) filming.

Hire La Luna Productions. Period. The work that they did on our wedding video is second to none. They managed to completely capture the vibe of our wedding with their shooting style and music selection. Our video is one my husband and I absolutely cherish and still watch regularly several years later. We both also agree that if we had to choose between saving our wedding video or our wedding photos in a fire, we would choose the video without question. La Luna was professional, unintrusive, fun and friendly and our video came back quickly. I could go on and on. As I said, HIRE THEM!
