Bella Star Productions

We are so happy with our highlight film and our documentary film from Phil at Bella Star! He was fantastic to work with, and did an amazing job on our wedding video. Phil was so easy to communicate with, and so quick in his delivery of our videos. We definitely recommend working with Phil at Bella Star Productions for your wedding!

Choosing Bella Star Productions as our videographer was one of the best decisions we made throughout our engagement! Phil was wonderful to work with throughout the whole process. He was very organized and made sure he had ALL of the details to ensure that the day goes perfectly. The day of, Phil was early and genuinely excited to film our special day! He made sure he got every little minute of the day. He was there from 10 am to 10 pm when our reception ended. Within 2 weeks, we got our highlight film and we can't stop watching it! It's so perfect, and we can't wait to see the final product! Overall, working with Bella Star was an amazing experience!

Phil was absolutely fabulous to work with! Super organized, fair pricing, great to work with both before and during the wedding, and wonderful results!

We loved working with Phil! He was incredibly attentive, responsive, and very easy to work with. He blended into the crowd on the day of our wedding and captured such wonderful moments. We also couldn't believe how fast we received our highlight video and the rest of our wedding footage (the USB came about a month after the wedding). Our family and friends have loved watching our wedding video! Would highly recommend Phil to anyone getting married in the Buffalo area!

Bella Stars Production was a great choice for our special day. Phil worked with us and our vendors to make sure all our moments of our wedding were captured. On the special day, Phil showed up early, prepared and excited. He caused our whole bridal party to have a sense of ease and excitement. He delivered our short film on time and it brought us to tears. We highly recommend Phil to anyone looking to have great footage of their wedding! Thank you again!!

Phil was amazing! He went above and beyond for our entire day and honestly created such an incredible video! Highly recommend!

Phil was incredibly professional and courteous the whole day. He stopped at nothing to make sure he got the perfect angles and shots. We got a wonderful short video that was brilliantly put together. I can’t wait to see our full length video!

We highly recommend Bella star productions, he was very thorough and organized throughout our whole day. He helped plan out our schedule and made our day as smooth as possible. He made sure to capture all of the important moments and our video turned out amazing!

A friend recommended Bella Star Productions & I'm so glad we listened! Phil was fantastic to work with & very reasonably priced. Although there were also 2 photographers, Phil was able to capture moments that they did not. We absolutely loved the short film (which was ready in only about 2 weeks) & cannot wait to see the documentary footage!

Phil was great. He made us feel comfortable from our first meeting before we had even booked with him. He was very friendly and stayed a long time at our wedding! He also got our video to us very quickly and our families loved it. I'm really glad we chose Phil to capture our day.

Bella Star Productions was the best vendor we could have chose for our wedding day! Philip is very professional, caring, and dedicated to his work. He is very detail oriented and does everything in his power to make sure he gets the picture perfect shot. His prices are very reasonable for the time and effort he puts into his work. Even when I was running behind schedule, Phil assured my husband and I that everything was going to be ok, and that he was going to take the time to get the shots we wanted. I can’t imagine what our day would have looked like without Phil by our side. Thank you so much for beautifully capturing our special day!

We hired Phil to shoot our June wedding, and we were thrilled with the results! Phil skillfully captured the getting ready moments and flawlessly synced them with a requested song during the editing process. He delivered great footage of the ceremony from various angles, and great clips of the dancing at the reception. The video editing was well-done, and he skillfully blended the music with the footage, including songs we requested. Phil's communication was excellent before the wedding ensuring all our questions were answered and everyone was on the same page. On the day of the wedding, he was punctual, friendly, and stayed until the end of the night. He delivered the short film just 3 weeks after the wedding, and it truly reflects the joy and emotion of our special day - we've watched it countless times already! We highly recommend Phil for anyone looking for a talented and reliable videographer. Update: We recently received our "documentary film" and we were blown away with how wonderful the editing was of the pre-ceremony, ceremony, and reception. Phil captured the ceremony from multiple angles and it's hard to believe he was the only videographer! We have loved watching and re-watching footage of the toasts and reception dancing (over 30 minutes of fun, high quality video of dancing). We enthusiastically recommend Phil!

Phil was amazing! He made the whole process easy for us by mailing us pre-addressed envelopes and having great communication. He was present and dedicated to our whole wedding day! He made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, resulting in genuine and natural footage. Their expertise on capturing the audio was impressive as well! We appreciate Bella Star Productions so much for capturing our special day perfectly and would highly recommend to anyone! We love our highlight film so much and can’t wait to get our documentary film.

Bella Star Productions was great to work with. He created a beautiful highlight video that accommodated all of my requests with a very quick turn around time. The video was exactly what I was looking for to highlight our day and I appreciated that he stayed all night to capture the fun at the end. Highly recommend and a great value!

We highly recommend Phil and Bella Star. We felt so comfortable with Phil from our first convo and especially on our day. It was pleasure having him with us all day for our special day. He was attentive and organized from the moment we first contacted him through our wedding day. You can tell that he cares about his clients and his work. He captured everything we wanted and was a perfect member to our whole wedding team with his kindness, professionalism, and organization. We are grateful to have found him to be our videographer and capture our day for us. It was a pleasure working with him throughout the whole process we really appreciated his contribution to our wedding day experience. We recommend him highly Gratefully Natalie and Anthony

Phillip is kind and professional. We were so happy with our wedding video! I would highly recommend Bella Star Productions.

Phil was fantastic to work with! He took the time to fully explain his process during the planning process, and we always felt as though we were in capable hands. He was also able to get amazing footage while still being discreet. Many guests didn’t even notice he was walking around, but those who did had great things to say! We also received a short highlight video very quickly after the wedding, which was even better than we could have hoped for. I would highly recommend Bella Star to anyone getting married!

Phil has been amazing to work with and the short film we received so far was absolutely incredible! We reached out to him back in 2019 but due to Covid we didn't have our wedding until 10/15/22 and all throughout he was super helpful and professional. He's very easy to get along with and you can tell he has a passion for his work. He caught so many amazing moments and the way he put music to it was perfect! I'm so glad we chose Phil and would highly recommend him to anyone!

Phil’s personality and willingness to get to know us was incredible. Phil took time to get to know us and to make sure he had an idea of what our expectations were. Phil always answered any questions we had and did it in a timely matter. Matter of fact, he was so on top of it, we could not believe his work ethic. Working with Phil was a breeze. We always looked forward to our chats with Phil. Phil has a passion for what he does and it shows in his work. His passion also reflects in the relationship he strives to develop with his clients. Phil was punctual and organized. Wedding planning can be stressful and we never felt this way at any point when working with Phil. Phil also did an amazing job coordinating with our photographer and DJ. Phil does amazing work. Check our his page to see the vast amount of video clips. Our highlights film was exactly what we had hoped for and more. We cannot wait to see our video. Phil excelled in more ways than one and we cannot recommend him enough. Always remember to be open and honest with ur expectations when wedding planning and Phil will ensure he meets your expectations and more. Thank you Phil for sharing on day with us!!

He is very knowledgeable and professional, as well understanding and patient. We received our highlight video very quickly, and it is beautiful! Thank you so much!

Phil was nothing short of incredible. He was so helpful in finalizing all of the little details and timeline information leading up to the wedding and arrived on time and ready to go the day of.

Phil was the perfect videographer to capture all the important parts of our special day. He was extremely professional to work with and went above and beyond by providing us with helpful advice and pro tips for making all of our moments look great! He is also very responsive and prompt with any questions you may have along the way. 10/10 highly recommend!

Phil from Bella Star Productions was an absolute joy to work with! You can tell he enjoys what he does and he isn't just in it for the money--he stayed up until the VERY end of the night and was EVERYWHERE. He was extremely professional, caring and thorough. We couldn't recommend him enough and are more than confident that he will do an exceptional job!!

Phil was great! He was very engaging and communicative with us about certain shots he knew would look great! He knew all the great spots at our wedding party photography location. We love watching our wedding video! He captured all the best moments and are very pleased with our choice to hire Phil!

From the bottom of my heart, this was THE BEST experience of my wedding by far. I had toyed with the idea of videography for our wedding for a while because to be completely honest, I wasn’t sure if I would watch it or if it was something that fit into our wedding budget. When I say this is the best money spent on our day, I truly can’t express how much! From the very beginning, Phil conducted himself with the most outstanding service and professionalism and he made me feel comfortable right away. He graciously met with us in his home and treated us like old friends. He explained everything down to every detail of our day and what to expect and for once, I didn’t have any questions! Lol! It’s like he knew every concern we may have and read our minds! His communication up to our day was superb and the day of our wedding, it’s hard to explain but it’s almost like I forgot he was a vendor and like he was part of our family! Truly! He blended into everything like magic and we never felt like his equipment was bulky or in the way. It was so professional down to every detail! When it comes to our video, it truly brought me to tears. We couldn’t believe how quickly he got our preview to us but the way he captured the FEELING of our day is completely indescribable. The whole day is such a fast blur that it almost feels like a dream you’re trying to remember, but every time I watch it it’s like being right back in and reliving the whole day. Having the ability to revisit our day is so completely priceless and sharing it with our family and friends, and even some guests that couldn’t make it is my most prized take away from our wedding. (Well I suppose besides my new husband lol!) If I could recommend ANY piece of our wedding to anyone else, it would be Phil and BellaStar. I wish I had words for how much I truly mean it. I also think it’s important to note that I work in the wedding community and have met hundreds of vendors for various services and Phil truly blew us away. His style fit us perfectly not being over produced and over edited into something that it wasn’t. It was truly like rewalking in my wedding shoes! I could never say thank you enough for giving us the chance to pass this down to our family someday, or for the dozens of times I’ve already watched it! If you’re considering this, I promise you won’t be disappointed!

Phil was amazing to work with! He helped us with creating a timeline for the wedding day to make the day run smoothly. He was with us all day and fit right in with everyone. Phil made us feel so comfortable and barely even felt like there was a camera around. He even was able to get us our short film back within a few days of our wedding and the short film was absolutely incredible! We were on the fence about a videographer but we have no regrets about hiring Phil he was the best and I would recommend him to everyone I know!

Phil was wonderful to work with! His communication made our day flawless. We never knew he was there capturing all our memories we will cherish forever. Having a videographer was one of the best decisions so we can relive our special day over and over!

Phil from bellastar was amazing to work with! He worked with my mom to surprise her gift of a videographer with me! During the wedding, he worked amazingly with our photographer. We also had a big bridal party and a rowdy group at that! He was patient and even helped to organize getting ready,corralling and angles /positioning. Most importantly, his services/final product delivered. He was always in contact pre event and detail oriented (double checked our song choices and preferences along the way). The final video was everything we wanted and our guests still talk about his presence and our video is a huge hit- couldn’t recommend enough :)

We couldn’t recommend Bella Star Production highly enough!! We had an incredible experience with Phil. He immediately put us at ease and was with us every step of the way on our wedding day. He went above and beyond our expectations, and captured so many beautiful moments for us!

Phil was a joy to work with from the start! He made sure he understood the timeline for the day and where he should be/when in order to get the best shot. We adore the highlight film Phil made for us and I’ve watched it probably 50 times already. His work will be cherished by my friends and family for decades to come. If you’re on the fence about hiring, do it! (If he’s still available 😉)

Phil was amazing. He helped plan my itinerary for the day and was so informative! My video is beautiful and everyone that has watched it agrees! Yeah I got that I got the scale up with

I can’t say enough good things about Bella Star Productions. Phil was excellent to work with. He truly cares about the couples he works with and captures all the important moments. You won’t be disappointed!

Phil was amazing throughout the entire wedding planning process! He set up multiple phone calls to go over his services and my timeline. On the day of, he was there for the whole process of getting ready, the ceremony, and the reception! He captured all the the moments I had hoped and produced a beautiful highlight video! We can’t wait to see the full video! Thank you again Phil!!

Phil was an absolute joy to work with! He made us feel so comfortable and was always willing to answer any questions we had, at almost any time of day. We had a timing conflict and he made it work for us. Day of was a breeze and he was with us all night long! We already received our highlight video and we are so excited for the rest of our video. We HIGHLY recommend Phil!

Phil was amazing! He did everything perfect, on time, conscientious, moved everything along, and most of all worked amazingly well with our photographer. They coordinated everything perfect and i cannot thank him enough for capturing our special day. I would recommend Phil for anyone looking for spectacular videography, then end product shows. Amazing work, we cant thank him enough!

Phil was INCREDIBLE! He captured our special day so beautifully. He was very thorough and didn't miss a single thing, which we LOVED. If you need a videographer, don't even think twice. Bella Star Productions is the ONE AND ONLY! Absolutely amazing.

Wedding videography was a very important thing for me to have and choose for my wedding. Phil went above and beyond my expectations. He works in a very timely fashion and the short film he produced for us had me smiling from ear to ear. It was so great to watch all the happiness from our special day. He highlighted all the parts of our day perfectly. I would definitely recommend him to any couple!

Phil was so responsive and available throughout our planning process and took the time to get to know us as a couple prior to the wedding. We are ecstatic at our short film and are so excited to see the full length film soon! The quality of the video is amazing and is easily one of the best values for videography! I would highly recommend Bella Star to couples in Buffalo and you can't beat Phil's experience in the wedding industry! You won't meet a nicer guy either!

We really enjoyed working with Phil. He stayed with us through the pandemic and was very flexible. Our highlight film is absolutely perfect & I was able to see all of our guest have them most amazing time ! I cannot wait to see the whole film. Phil went above and beyond to agree to even the smallest and silliest details I asked for without hesitation. He has a wonderful service!

I booked Phil at the semi-last minute and he was absolutely wonderful to work with from start to finish. He responded to my inquiry in a timely manner and his prices were among the best I've seen! I checked out his portfolio before booking and was blown away with his eye for detail. Planning a wedding from out of town, we could not meet until our wedding day, but we had multiple phone calls to discuss our vision and he made sure to keep me informed every step of the way. Upon meeting him, he was super friendly, very professional, and down-to-business! I did not stress one bit about if he would capture specific moments as he seemed very comfortable doing his thing, and I was very happy to not have to worry about anything just knowing he was there. When he sent our teaser video not even two weeks later, I cried all the way through it as it was so perfectly beautiful. I absolutely cannot wait to see what he comes up with for our full video, but I am certain that it's going to be amazing! I would recommend working with Phil to anyone looking for a wedding videographer who will be not only professional, but personable on your special day!

Working with Phil was a dream. He was very responsive and flexible with us during our 2 postponements, due to COVID. Phil worked with us and the photographer to create a time schedule that worked best for all parties. On the day of the wedding he worked seamlessly with with photographer and the bridal party to capture our big day. We are so happy with the final production of our video. We would recommend Phil to everyone and if you're on the fence, totally spend the extra money on the videographer! As a bride, and watching our film, you realize how much of the day you actually miss! We couldn't be more pleased with Phil's service, production, and packages!

Planning a wedding during a global pandemic is NOT something brides dream of, and it's uncharted territory for both couples and vendors alike. I was not sure I wanted to spend extra money on videography, but since we had to scale everything back so much and reduce our guest list so drastically - I wanted to make sure every moment of our night was captured for our family and friends to see afterwards (Selfishly, after seeing my highlight video, I would be so sad not to have it for myself) . From the very beginning, Phil was professional, flexible and truly had our best interests in mind. I was confident that Phil would leave us with memories to last a lifetime , and he did NOT DISAPPOINT!!! The evening flew by in the blink of an eye, and we are so happy we have all of this video footage to go back and watch anytime we want. We are so happy with our decision to hire Phil and cannot recommend him and his work enough.... all I can promise you is that it's worth every last penny. Thank you Phil for everything you did to make our day so special!!!

Phil was awesome. Extremely personable and enthusiastic about what he does. Before the wedding he gave us the rundown what to expect from him and did he ever exceed our expectations. He was at church early to set up before everyone got there and was with us until just about the end of the night. Capturing every big moment. At church he mic’d the groom up so that the vows were clearly heard for the video. He made the whole process so easy from initially booking to a month before the wedding asking for a timeline for the day of, then calling a few days before to see if we had any questions. He also checked in with us at the wedding to remind us of his game plan for the day. He was right in the middle of the dance floor capturing all the fun moments with friends and family. We got our highlight video about 10 days after the wedding and we’re blown away how he could capture so much love, happiness and fun in 4 and a half minutes. We can’t say enough about Phil and bella star productions. We 100000% recommended Phil for anyone looking for a top notch videographer.

My now husband and I were on the fence about a video but last minute decided to go for it so we wouldn't regret anything. Let me tell you we would have definitely regretted it!!! Our short film is amazing and Phil captured every important moment for us. We highly recommend Phil and the service he provides! He is extremely helpful, professional and very detail-oriented. Phil helped us with scheduling our day out and making sure we were doing everything we needed to. He helped our day run as smoothly as it did. If you are debating on hiring a videographer I say go for it, you won't regret it and choose Phil to capture your special day!!!

Phil is absolutely amazing! He was like a wedding planner/videographer. He is so sweet, helpful, personable and amazing at what he does. He captures the moments you don’t want to forget. The day I received the short video I watched it 3 times because I couldn’t believe how absolutely amazing it was. We also got our highlight clip within a week of our wedding. You will not be disappointed with Bella star productions!

Phil was extremely helpful, professional, and easy to work with from day one! Phil put me at ease by conducting a phone conference with me early on to plan our day to make sure we captured every important moment. I felt so confident with Phil from the start, he really knows what he is doing. The day of the wedding he was amazing, he does his thing and makes sure he is capturing all the precious moments but in a way that you don’t even realize he is there! He worked so well with out photographer and all other vendors as well. Phil stayed our whole night ensuring he did not miss a minute! He also got out highlight film out to us within a week and it blew us away! Phil is truly a professional and i would highly recommend him as a videographer to anyone in the future!! Excellent!!!

If you are looking for an experienced videographer with an eye for the details, look no further, because Phil is your man! Phil is so knowledgeable and easy to work with, and he truly loves weddings. He kept in contact with us in the months leading up to our wedding, and even helped us put together a timeline for the day. He worked seamlessly with our photographer, often times working with her to set up beautiful shots. He gave my husband and I pointers from time to time to ensure things videoed well, and though he stayed out of the way, we know he was there to capture all of our beautiful moments from our wedding day. He helped us stay relaxed and focused on each other, not on the video, and we are so grateful to him for helping our day run so smoothly! Thanks Phil!

Phil was our videographer for our wedding last weekend, and he was just fantastic. Truly nice and professional, just a pleasure to work with. And he has already sent a highlight video that is so beautifully done, we love it. Highly recommend!

We went back and forth on whether we should get a videographer or not. To be honest, my now husband didn't want one at all. Within a few minutes of meeting Phil, his mind had changed. Phil was so easy to work with! During the pre-planning he was thorough and helpful! The day of he was there to capture the candid moments from getting ready to dance offs at the reception without disrupting anything! We received our 'highlight' video within a week of the wedding and are IN LOVE with it! We are completely satisfied with our decision to go with Bella Star Productions and we definitely recommend!

Phil at Bella Star Productions was an amazing videographer! He was extremely professional. He showed up on time, was organized throughout the whole day and worked so well with our photographers from a different company. He captured amazing moments without being obnoxious and in the guests' faces. I'm so happy we went with him as we have this amazing video to remember our day from that's so professionally done!

Phil was extremely professional, friendly, and completed our video preview in a very timely manner. He was very easy to work with. We loved our preview video and can't wait to see the rest of his work. We would highly recommend him.

Bella Star Productions is the videographer you want to chose for your wedding! From the first day my wife and I met Phil, he was very welcoming, polite, and professional. You could really tell he had a ton of experience. Also, Phil was very organized. As the wedding day arrived, Phil communicated with my wife and I over phone, email as well as mail to make sure our big day with him as our videographer was captured how we wanted. On our big day, he was on time, professional, and positive throughout. He was able to video different views of the wedding with the use of multiple cameras and voice recorders. He also was always right in the middle of the action; Phil gets right out on the dance floor as everyone is dancing to tape! That is awesome! Lastly, the highlight video/DVDs were great. The sound and picture were excellent, and it all flowed smoothly. If you want a videographer that will only make your wedding day even more fantastic, you should choose Bella Star Productions! The quality that Bella Star Productions produces through video is stunning, and because of this company my wife and I will always be able to reminisce on our big day through video due to the amazing job of Bella Star Productions. THANK YOU!

I selected Bella Star for my July 7 , 2018 wedding. Honestly, I had no clue what I was looking for in a videographer, but Phil absolutely exceeded any expectation and I couldn't be more pleased. Phil contacted me to touch base a few times prior to the wedding, which established my comfort with him. The day of our wedding, he arrived promptly and was ready to begin work. He captured so many moments that I'm happy we have to look back on. Phil was friendly, professional, and great to have around. I truly felt like he was "present" with us that day, taking in the joy, fun, and love. It certainly didn't feel like we were just another number, another job. More importantly, the product he produced was exceptional. He captured so many wonderful moments and some moments, as the Bride, I didn't get a chance to see first hand. I'm truly happy we chose Bella Star and we are thankful for Phil and his wonderful work that we now have to rewatch for a lifetime.

Philip LaNasa at Bella Star Productions was WONDERFUL to work with- we highly recommend him! He was extremely pleasant, punctual, and captured our wedding day without ever being distracting or ‘in the way’. He is extremely passionate about his videography and his work shows it. I am forever grateful that we will have a beautifully captured and edited video of our Wedding Day to look back on and cherish. 💜

Phil was amazing. He hit all the important points and much more! We have only gotten our hilight video and it was amazing! I can’t wait to see the full version! He was on time and didn’t need direction, he just did his thing! Definitely recommend Them to everyone I know!
