We really wanted to be able to leave a positive review, because he seems like a good guy, but he really dropped the ball. The videos he put together for us had a lot of graininess and errors, with some parts being impossible to see. It felt as though he put them together without ever watching them because there were so many mistakes. We've been waiting almost two years for him to fix the issues, but we've given up hope that he will fix it. Hopefully others have more luck than we did.

Lost all of our video footage. Two days worth of footage. Slow communication. We would have to follow up on emails/ call him in order to get a response. Did not find out the footage was lost until 7 months AFTER the wedding. Although we were able to get our refund and he was apologetic about it, the poor communication/ transparency was what did it for me.

Wow. Literally beyond happy with Alfred and Pearl Films. Videography was a last minute decision from our end and we contacted Alfred and he responded ASAP. We were very clear with our vision and he supported us along the way. Not to mention, he was incredibly thorough and personable in person. He came prepared with all the available materials and we did not even have to remind him of anything on the timeline as he was always in position ready to go. He also worked great with our photographer, and was an asset to making our day a success.
Any questions?

Pearl Films blew our wedding video out of the water! The communication and execution were professional and matched the exciting energy of our special day. We are so grateful to have our memories captured so perfectly and simply cannot stop watching our video!

We love our highlight video from Pearl Films! Alfred did such a great job capturing our day and are so thankful to have footage of all the important moments. High quality video and easy to view and share with others :) We received a highlight video 3 months after our wedding and will have all deliverables within 4-5. He is reliable and responsive.

My husband and I chose Pearl Films as the videographer for our wedding in August, and we could not be more happy with that decision! From the very start, Alfred was quick to answer any questions we had, organized, and made us feel very comfortable. The final product of the video turned out amazing! He really managed to capture the whole day within a few minutes in the highlight video. And being able to watch the entire ceremony, dances, and toasts, allows us to relive our special day any time we want. Danny was our videographer on the day, and he did a fantastic job! He was constantly on the move to get different angles and make sure he captured every moment. Alfred and Danny were both so great to work with from start to finish, and we cannot say enough good things about them!

Alfred was great to work with as the videographer for our wedding! From the start, he was very professional, kind and thoughtful. I appreciated how he listened to any little details that we wanted captured and was thorough in his questions to make sure we were all prepped for the big day.
He helped us feel comfortable and relaxed on our wedding and everything went smoothly! Afterwards, he was very transparent with his timing with getting the videos edited back to us. The final videos were lovely! It captured all the memories of the evening and I keep watching our videos over and over. The whole wedding was full of happy tears and laughter and I'm so thankful that Pearl Films was able to capture the special moments for us to remember for years to come.

My husband and I hired Alfred the week of our wedding because we decided we wanted our ceremony to be filmed. On such a short notice, Alfred was very on top of sending us the details, cost, information, documents etc. that normally would take a few days or weeks to put together .. Alfred got all of it to us right away. We had two phone calls with him to talk about our vision of our wedding and a few things we wanted captured and he was very attentive to our desires. The day of our wedding--Aldred showed up on time and had his equipment ready to go. My wedding planner said Alfred was very professional. We got out ceremony video a few days after our wedding and we loved it. We are so glad that Alfred was willing to take on a huge last minute ceremonial video for us and killed it!

Find an affordable videographer seemed almost impossible, but luckily I came across Alfred and his Pearl Films business and fell in love with his videos immediately! I knew I wanted to hire him to shoot my wedding. My husband and family didn't care if I had a video, but I did. I wanted these memories, especially because we have a lot of family who live out of state, and due to COVID, we were limited to how many people we could have at the venue. I love my video and am so thankful Alfred worked with us and captured our big day moments. One thing that I appreciated most was that we were able to make payments, a lot of other buisnesses wanted the payment in full or within 90days before the wedding, Alfred worked with us to help pay off 30days after our wedding. Muchos gracias Alfred for working with us, and for my beautiful video!

Alfred was the best I could have ever asked for. He was attentive, listened to what we wanted, was observant and creative. He was a joy to have at my wedding let alone a vendor who was recording it.
If you have doubts about hiring a videographer, worry no more, Pearl Films PNW is the place to go. I recommend them to everyone, hands down, the best choice I made!

We hired Alfred for our wedding videography. He was a trooper . It was outside and an early sunrise in the mountains, and he showed up and worked in the rain. You did a great job! Thanks again.

Alfred was an absolute joy to work with! We decided to go with a videographer last minute for our wedding and we are over the moon with our decision not only to do so, but to hire Alfred. He captured our day so beautifully!! He was prompt and professional and so incredibly nice. He is creative and attentive to detail and so talented as far as editing goes. The highlight video he created of our day was absolutely amazing! We are so happy to have chosen Pearl Films to be apart of our special day and 10/10 would recommend.

Thank you so much for your very kind words, in the end it does help a lot to work for such fun and awesome people like you and Chris!!! Thank you!
I enjoy capturing life's unique moments, both big and small. I'm inspired by things like inspirational speeches, romantic kiss at sunset, and emotional dances between fathers and daughters. I'm excited to get to know new people, hear their stories, and help them in telling them in a way they'll treasure forever. I moved back to lovely Southern California in 2022 after four years in Seattle where I worked as a wedding videographer and started what today is Pearl Films
