Sam and Sarah, aka Natural Media, are seriously THE BEST! Experience: They were so thoughtful, communicative, kind, and professional before, during, and after our wedding. Despite capturing truly EVERY special moment of the entire day (seriously, we can't think of a single thing they missed), it barely felt like they were even there! This really made it so that we could organically enjoy our day, and they were able to capture us in our natural (true to their name) experience of the day which is SO lovely to look back on. The brief moments when we did interact with them on our wedding day, they were so kind and thoughtful, making sure they were capturing everything we were hoping they would, and sharing with us how beautiful they thought everything was which was so sweet to hear. The Videos: The quality of the finished videos they gave us are truly unbelievable! We were immediately brought to tears by how gorgeously they captured everything, it all looks like a movie! The audio and video quality of everything is insanely good, even the screenshots they gave us look like stills from a movie. We so appreciated how in addition to a beautifully edited and polished "wedding video" video that encapsulates many moments from throughout the entire day, they also gave us full length videos of the entire ceremony, speeches, and first looks, which are so so special to have in their entirety. We are completely blown away by the quality of everything, truly. If you're wondering whether it is worth the investment for videographers on your special day, I can tell you Sam and Sarah are worth their weight in gold and will leave you with the most beautiful, high quality, comprehensive videos that will allow you to re-live your day (in amazing clarity) over and over again forever. We feel so lucky to have found Natural Media to capture our wedding, and we are incredibly grateful to Sam and Sarah for all of their hard work! Thank you both!

We are so glad we found Natural Media! Sam and his wife are super easy to work with and do great work! We chose the all day package that included the edited video along with copies of the speeches, ceremony, first dances etc...the videos turned out AMAZING! They are extremely high quality and we love the story they told. We got so many compliments on the video. We are so happy to have these memories forever.

AWARD WINNER

Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot

Natural Media, a wedding videographer in Minneapolis, MN, is the cooperative effort of videographer Sam and his wife, Sarah. Sam has created over 150 wedding videos since 2013, and Sarah is lead editor with her background in traditional art. We call ourselves Natural Media because our number one priority is to capture the natural feeling of your day. Planning a wedding is a big venture, but once the day actually comes, we find that the gravity of the day allows couples to be themselves more than any other time. We seek out whatever it is that makes you and your wedding unique and capture that feeling in your video. We are 100% independent artists; we don't outsource anything and we don't have a marketing team. Now you know a bit about us, but we want to hear about you! Reach out and you'll hear back from Sam within 24 hours. We are happy to answer any questions you have, help with your wedding planning or offer any advice if you are unsure about any part of the process.

ond to create a video that felt upbeat, authentic, and so us.. not overly sappy like so many wedding videos you see online. They made the entire process easy and enjoyable. The final video perfectly captured the joy, humor and energy of the day. We couldn’t be happier and would recommend them without hesitation

I am so grateful that we chose Natural Media and Sam to be the videographer for our big day. Our wedding video turned out absolutely amazing. It captured the entire day perfectly a...

nd we have cried every time we’ve watched it. Sam didn’t miss a single moment - we got the package with just him and he was running around in the June heat with his heavy equipment all day making sure he didn’t miss a thing. The audio/video quality is top notch - our wedding video looks like a movie! His package pricing is super competitive especially with how good the quality of the video is. Honestly if I had to go back I’d get the larger video package because it was so good and we just wanted more! Do not miss out on capturing the memories of your day - I would regret it so much if we had decided to skip out on a wedding video. So worth it and 10000/10 recommend Natural Media!

essional and respectful with our team of photographers. They got sooo many live shots of the day and made an amazing 10 minute video! In addition to that, we got full coverage of the most important parts of the day and we are obsessed with going back to watch our perfect day. Highly recommended!

e such a calming presence and captured things I didn't even have the opportunity to experience. They were extremely thoughtful in their editing - taking in our day, understanding our vision and creating a video that felt unique to US. The audio and video footage captured is PRICELESS and we feel so lucky to have met Sam and Sarah. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

nd with extremely creative and detailed editing! The lead up to our wedding day was straightforward which is appreciated with all the other logistics to account for. On the wedding day, we didn't notice they were following us around but they captured everything. After the wedding, the video was more than we could have imagined. They even asked us if there were any changes that we would like to be made. We requested one minor tweak which they were more than happy to do and got us back the revised video the next day. We did the "Documentary" package and would say it was worth the upgrade! Great values for the pricing overall. Thanks to Natural Media, our video takes us back to the moment of our wedding which is so fun to relive!

The creativity of the final video was outstanding! I would highly recommend Sam and his wife. They captured the wedding day so wonderfully.

I came across Natural Media and was responded too almost immediately. Sam was amazing with his communication, professionalism and flexibility. Then when we got our video, was even more pleased with how amazingly wonderful it was put together. They were attentive, and do great work. Would definitely recommend!!

ages compared to other videographers. Sam was very communicative throughout the entire process to make sure that I received everything exactly how I wanted it. He was very organized and made my wedding day very easy. After receiving all of my videos, I was in shock at how amazing the camera quality was, as well as his creativity with all of the shots he took, the editing, the music, etc. Every single aspect of the video was perfect and exceeded my expectations. I received countless messages and comments from friends and family mentioning how impressed they were with my wedding video, and I couldn’t agree more. I am so beyond grateful that we hired Natural Media as our videographer and I am so appreciative to have this special video to look back on to feel all of the emotion and excitement we had on our wedding day.

Natural Media- Sam Silverness was exceptional to work with. He made my thoughts, ideas, and dreams come into reality while helping me prepare for our elopement. I was not from the ...

area and have never traveled to the spot we ended up finding to elope. Sam helped us with all the details, look at areas before coming and gave the best advice. He was prompt, worked around the wind, rain, and all of the changes that happened throughout the day. I couldn't give enough praise to him and his wife for all their help and great, professional experience.

Sam and Sarah are an absolutely prenominal pair that make incredibly beautiful videos! They are incredibly professional, communication is perfect, expectations are perfect and the ...

thing I kept thinking while watching my wedding video for the first time was "I'm so glad I found Natural Media, this is perfect!". I did my research and reached out to 20+ videographers prior to picking Natural Media and they were everything I hoped for. They are so nice, and did such a wonderful job capturing the most beautiful moments from my wedding. I was so nervous having 2 videographers at the wedding, that I would be nervous in front of the camera, and I didn't even realize they were there!! A few embarrassing moments during the ceremony were edited around in their cinematic feature so flawlessly, and I still have the ceremony video from start to finish! If you want a perfect wedding video, choose Natural Media! They did such a great job, they deserve everyone's business!
