Cristian and his team are 10/10! They are non intrusive the day of (were not in a single photo!), were absolute joys to be with the day of our wedding, and delivered an amazing film FAST! Cristian even took the time to make some edits to make sure we loved it. Can’t recommend Cinemarvel enough. Also can’t rave enough about the video guestbook — watching back the clips of our family speaking on our wedding day was so special and we’ll surely watch on every anniversary. Book with him now!!!
Words cannot describe how amazing our experience was working with Cristian and Cinemarvel Films. From the beginning meetings throughout the planning process, to the day of and then receiving the final product. Everything was well communicated, done efficiently and was such a joy. Cristian was such a fun part of our special day and really captured so many little and big moments that we are grateful to have on film. We have watched both out teaser and longer film so many times, everyone who was there at our wedding who has watched it has said how it really captured the day and is the best wedding video they have ever seen. If I can recommend anything for your wedding day, it’s to use Cinemarvel Films!
A huge thank you to this amazing team for the incredible job they did capturing our wedding in Hudson! We were blown away by the teaser video released just two days after the wedding—it was absolutely beautiful and perfectly captured the joy and magic of the day. Now that we’ve seen the full video, we’re beyond thrilled! It’s amazing and exactly what we wanted.
The videographers were such a pleasure to work with—flexible, easygoing, and professional. We truly appreciate how seamless everything felt, from the prep to the big moments.
Highly recommend them for anyone looking for talented and professional wedding videographers. Thank you again for all your hard work. We’re so happy with the final videos!
We hired Cinemarvel for our wedding in May of this year and we cannot recommend him enough. Cristian and his team are the ultimate professionals and they know precisely what they need to deliver an amazing video to remember your special day. He worked seamlessly with our photographer and delivered a beautiful sneak peek video and our final video much quicker than we expected.
We spoke to Cristian in the morning then we barely noticed him the rest of the event as he is so subtle and not too in your face while capturing the day. He did an amazing job capturing the vibe of our friends and family and we will treasure it for a long time.
Something that sticks out to us as we have attended other weddings and events after our own is that finding a videographer that is professional and respectful (we got married in a church) is very important. We compare every videographer to Cristian now and he really set the bar high!
Cinemarvel Films is hands down the best cinematographer in the NJ/NYC area. We met with roughly 20+ cinematographers throughout our planning process and no one was able to convince us on handing them the keys to film our wedding and deliver a first class product. There was a point where we started to give up on the idea of cinematography as an option but then we luckily found Cinemarvel Films. Cristian (lead cinematographer) was very thorough during our initial consultation and welcomed our ideas as it pertained to the vision that we had. He was very responsive throughout our decision making process and answered all our questions promptly. Cristian was really a breath of fresh air and we were very confident that he would be able to meet our standards therefore we decided to pull the trigger and lock them in.
The package we picked had a save the date video included and Cristian was willing to work with us as it pertained to the location, dates and time. He also allowed us to bring our dog and incorporate our dog within the film. We suggested we wanted this film to serve as a Time Capsule of our love at this moment before kids and Cristian delivered. We loved it so much and received so many compliments on it regularly. As it pertained to timing, Cristian was very quick on turnaround.
Now, leading up to the wedding. Cristian sent us a questionnaire which asked key details and hit on specific topics that would be essential to ensure he was equipped to deliver on our vision. Moreover, We had a coordinator that worked with all of our vendors and in terms of communication, cinemarvel films was very on point and efficient.
Now, on our wedding day, The team of cinematographers were early to the venue, very professional and had amazing attention to detail. We noticed that Cristian and his team worked really well with the other vendors. In relation to personality, the team was very personable and allowed us to have genuine candid moments. We showed our save the date film during dinner with our wedding guest and we received many compliments from not only our guest but the venue staff (several of them said that this was the first time the saw a film of this quality shared during a wedding).
Lastly, for turnaround time of our wedding teaser/film. We received it before the amount of time that was promised. If there’s one constant theme I can say about Cinemarvel is that they consistently underpromised and overdelivered for us. We watched the film and again we were blown away with how amazing it was. If you don’t believe me, see our first reaction on Cinemarvel films Vimeo page.
I know we have said this several times throughout the process but thank you so much Cristian. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Cinemarvel Films. Please look no further. This is the best cinematography company out there but more importantly overall genuinely nice/honest people.
Thank you so much for capturing the true essence of our wedding day, delivering on our vision, and providing first class service throughout.
We found Cinemarvel in a wedding Facebook group and are so so glad we did! We knew the typical sappy romantic wedding video wasn’t for us, and loved that Cristian really tailors his videos to each unique couple. Personality was an important factor for us in hiring all our vendors, and we could tell from our first video call with Cristian that we would get along great. We loved meeting him ahead of time and getting comfortable being filmed in our Save the Date shoot, and that video was fantastic. Then on the day of our wedding, he and his second shooter, Andres, did an awesome job of capturing every special moment without anything feeling forced. We were completely blown away by the teaser video he posted the very next day - it honestly looked like a movie trailer and we felt like total celebrities. The longer video arrived sooner than he said it would and it was equally amazing. Some people think wedding videos are something you’ll only watch once, or only worth having to show your kids in the future, but we and our families have been watching these videos on repeat.
Do not hesitate to book Cristian as your wedding videographer. We found him on Instagram and were immediately floored by the quality of his work. The day-of, he was unobtrusive and let our photographer lead, but also somehow got every shot framed and captured perfectly. We had our sneak-peek trailer about 24 hours (before we even got to our honeymoon destination!) and our feature film quicker than we could believe. It made our parents cry even more than they did on the day of our wedding! His second shooter, Jason, was also so pleasant and talented. Cristian and Jason also worked well in tandem with our wedding photographer, and were very flexible. We were so happy with this team.
We hired Cinemarvel films after debating whether or not we wanted a videographer for quite a while, even through our several COVID postponements. In February 2022, we had secured a different videographer, but that fell through when we needed them to be vaccinated. Even though that was a less-than-ideal circumstance, we wanted to go forward with getting our wedding on film and we looked for someone closer to our wedding venue - enter Cristian and Cinemarvel Films. From our first contact with Cristian, he was nothing but polite, engaged, thoughtful, and kind . When discussing his aesthetic for his films, e explained that he likes to tell stories, and who wouldn't like that ? As with any vendor, but especially with less than six weeks to go before the wedding, you are taking a bit of a chance but it is safe to say you will be in excellent hands with Cristian. He really knows what he's doing and more than that, you can tell he cares about creating something that represents the couple and their wedding story. I don't regret for a moment having Cristian and Cinemarvelfilms film our wedding, and I highly recommend him to any other folks looking for a well-priced and beautiful video. Thank you a million times over, Cristian, for stepping in and producing something gorgeous.
We want to thank Cristian at Cinamarvel for all of his great work. We knew we absolutely wanted a wedding video to capture our day and Cristian took the time to sit with us and explain all of our options, helping us find what would work best. He was so responsive and willing to go above and beyond to make sure we got the wedding video we envisioned. The day of he was kind, professional, and we were so comfortable working with him. he directed us and suggested ways to make the video even more special. The teaser and full 8 minute video was edited to perfectly tell a story and capture every special moment of the day. Cristian is truly a professional and expert in his field and we can’t recommend him enough!
When deciding whether or not we wanted to hire a videographer for our wedding, my husband and I really had to weigh the pros and cons as we were trying to stay cost effective. While it came as a last minute decision, we are so incredibly happy that we decided to hire Cristian to film our day. The experience was simple and easy from start to finish, and Cristian was always quick and responsive to any questions or concerns we had. Cristian was nothing but professional, polite, and timely in delivering our contract & our final products after the big day. Our wedding video was beautifully crafted, so romantic, and truly captured who we are. We are beyond excited to have these videos to share with our friends and family forever. Thank you so much Cristian!
We had our wedding during COVID. Cristian worked with us patiently and answered all our questions. He was engaging and professional. One can tell that he is serious about his work. He even has a questionnaire that you can fill out so that he can give you the best service during your wedding.
Our wedding film had clips from our family and friends who were miles away. Combined with the beautiful work that Cristian captured, the end result was a tear-jerker. We had something special to share to our families and friends who couldn’t make it to the wedding, and we have documented memories for a lifetime. We are so blessed to have had him as our videographer.
Cinemarvelfilms really captured every detail of my wedding, it was a great experience to have worked with them on such special ocassion. On behalf of my wife and I, we want to thank Cinemarvelfilm for such and amazing job and for the dedication and hard work they put into our wedding. They are truly professionals and the final product is definitely speaks for itself. Their attention to details, quality of work and determination to capture every single moment really amazed me. Thank you cinemarvelfilms for such an amazing job and for making this beautiful day even better.
We really loved his work & professionalism. Great to work with, very patient & a lot of great ideas for pictures. He really captured the moment for us. We would definitely recommend him to our friends and family.
Thank you
Working with Cristian was awesome! He was punctual, courteous, and managed to get awesome footage without being in the way, which was my concern with having a team with two photographers and a team with two videographers. We love our short film (we’ve watched it SO many times) and have gotten so many compliments from our family and friends. Excited to relive more of the wedding with our documentary cut! It’s wonderful that we’ll get both. Essentially, we got exactly what we wanted for a very reasonable price and would certainly work with Cinemarvel again!
