Highlighted review.
Ryan did an amazing job with our wedding videos, I literally had tears falling down when I watched all of them! We had Sunny and Zack working with us and collecting the images on the wedding day and they were great to work with. They both are so sweet, creative and fun. We all felt so comfortable. During the wedding ceremony and reception we could hardly notice them, and they did such a great job capturing amazing images of everything! Our wedding video was beyond what we expected, it was amazing to be able to relive our special day with such a beautiful video. Thank you so much to Ryan, Sunny and Zack for the amazing work. Our video is perfect!
Ryan and Zach, thank you for capturing our special day!
Ryan Films was the first vendor I booked knowing they offer same day edit video. Their website is detailed so it was so easy for Jack and I to make a decision based on our budget.
The team made us at ease despite the nerves on the wedding day, both are professional and very friendly! My family and friends were pleased and enjoyed watching the video during our reception.
Up to this day, we are still watching and reliving our special day and can't wait for the documentary video.
We hired Ryan Films for our destination wedding in Las Vegas based off of their social media and reviews- we could not be more pleased with our decision. We opted for the associate package from Ryan, and he sent Zack and Hector. These two were punctual, professional, and generally a lovely addition to our wedding. From start to finish, they were right there everytime a memory was happening. The teaser video we received within a week took my breath away and completely captured our love. I cannot wait for the full thing! 10/10 recommend.
Any questions?
My husband and I had the absolute pleasure of working with Ryan and Zack as our wedding videographers, and we cannot speak highly enough of their talent and professionalism.
Despite never having worked with our photographers, Ryan and Zack seamlessly integrated into our day, effortlessly maintaining an upbeat and fun atmosphere throughout. Despite the inevitable tension and stress of such an important occasion, they managed to keep the mood light and personable, making it feel as though they weren't even there.
Both Ryan and Zack exuded professionalism from start to finish, while also bringing a genuine warmth and friendliness that put us at ease. Their ability to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera was truly remarkable, turning what could have been awkward moments into candid and upbeat memories that we will cherish forever.
Although we have not received the final product yet, we are beyond thrilled with our trailer and cannot wait to see the final cut. Their skill in capturing the essence of our love story was evident in the trailer, and we have no doubt that the final product will exceed our expectations.
We cannot recommend Ryan and Zack highly enough to any couple looking for talented, personable, and professional wedding videographers.
Thank you both for everything!
ey were far beyond our expectation. We had Zac as our day of videographer and I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Zac!!!! Please request him for your day of event. You will not regret it!!! Not only is he so professional, knows how to pose us and make everything natural but he truly cares and listens to what the couple is wants! He was so much more than our videographer he helped me stay on my timeline with our shots because I wanted to make sure I attended cocktail hour. He bustled my dress countless times! He has such a bright positive personality that truly just adds so much light to your special day! He made me and my now husband feel special and just truly helped us get the best possible shots! He also helped our photographer in so many ways and truly he is the greatest!!! Make sure to request him because he is the best!🤩 to Zac we truly can’t thank you enough for creating such a happy, festive, and beautiful wedding experience! Were sad we didn’t get a picture with you in it because you deserve to be in our photos albums!! 1,000/10
After we secured our wedding date and venue, Ryan Films was the very first vendor that we secured and it was the BEST decision we made in the wedding planning process! After seeing their awesome videos on Instagram, we knew we needed to have them film our wedding. Beyond having amazing reviews that highlighted Ryan’s great communication and super professional team, we really liked how Ryan used innovative techniques like flying a drone over the ceremony site to capture a different perspective. When we reached out to Ryan, we got an immediate response and a list of his pricing. Ryan let us know that he worked a lot at our venue, Green Gables Wedding Estate, and knew the staff and how they operated really well. This was awesome news for us since it meant less to coordinate on our end! It was super easy to find the best video package for us and there were even video extras like a “best wishes video” from our guests which was a fun addition. Throughout the process, Ryan’s communication was superb and helped keep us on track. A few weeks before the wedding, Ryan sent us a reminder email with items he needed from us for the big day so we didn’t overlook anything. On the day of, Ryan and Zack (his second shooter) were super personable and friendly which made the video experience fun and not awkward like you might assume it would be. Even though it was the first time they worked with our photography team, they did a great job of looking for opportunities to get video while we were posed for photos so we didn’t have to duplicate poses. We both felt like rockstars with the prompts they gave us and are so excited to see the final video. We would definitely recommend anyone looking for an awesome videographer to use Ryan. The main regret we hear from other married couples is that they did not get a videographer for their wedding day. DON’T BE THAT COUPLE! Look no further and go with Ryan and his team and I promise you will not be disappointed. They are so fun and easy to work with and I am so glad that we went with them. Thank you so much, Ryan and Zack, you guys are the best!!
WOW! Working with Brenda & Madi from Ryan Films was a dream! They were so kind and did a fantastic job capturing the small moments on my wedding day. Every last detail was carefully executed, allowing me to be a calm, cool, and collected bride. I highly recommend Ryan Films! I cannot thank them enough for making our day so absolutely special.
I'm really glad I didn't have to look for long when I decided to go with RyanFilms for our wedding videographer. Both my close friend and cousin-in-law had hired him for their weddings previously in the last couple years and when starting to do the vendor research, it was a no brainer to go with Ryan's company too. Although we ended up deciding on the package that works with his associates, the quality is still top tier and reflective of the company that Ryan has built up.
Communication with Ryan was super easy, payment/contract details also seamless and easy on his website.
Alec and Faisal (the associates) worked really well with our photographers for the day. Although our photographers took the main lead in where the location of the shots were going to be, Alec and Faisal worked with it and added their own directions for shots.
I cannot stress how much I value having an amazing team for videographers and photographers at our wedding because it flew by so fast, I hardly remember everything that happened. Knowing I'll be able to relive it through these videos gives me so much happiness and relief. We're loving the sneak peak so far and we're so excited to see the full video!
We are so grateful to have found Ryan Films in our search for a video team for our wedding. We had the pleasure of sharing our day with Zack. We had a pretty long wedding day (two ceremonies and a reception) but Zack was a trooper and was so kind, easygoing, and fun to hang out with. He worked seamlessly with our photographer to make sure we didn't have to miss more of our reception/cocktail hour than we wanted to. When we got our sneak peek 1 minute teaser video back, I cried. Zack captured so many amazing moments from different aspects of our day and wove them together so beautifully to create perfect retelling of our day in just one minute. We cannot wait to see the final product. If you're looking for a video team, we cannot recommend RyanFilms enough. Not only is their work incredible, but we had the best time hanging out with them all day.
Quite possibly the single best investment of our entire wedding! We had a destination wedding in Las Vegas and initially weren’t finding videographers from afar that we really jived with. Late in the game, we found Ryan and Sugar Rush Films and immediately knew we absolutely needed to have him at our wedding. His communication leading up to our wedding was exceptional and as a bride who is a self-described “over planner,” it was so reassuring to have him asking all the “right” questions and for all the small important details ahead of the big day. From the second he walked into the bridal suite, and throughout the entire day, he brought a level of excitement and genuine warmth that made us feel comfortable and at ease. After seeing his previous work we knew that our film would be fabulous, but nothing could have prepared us for the film that he delivered; we laughed, we cried and we reminisced at every clip. He perfectly combined the Vegas debauchery with the classic sentimental moments and it couldn’t have embodied our wedding day any better. We are so thankful that we found Ryan and Sugar Rush Films, and as a couple who initially nearly passed on booking wedding videography, it was the one of the very best investments we made. Thank you Ryan for bringing life to the moments from our big day that we can cherish and relive for a lifetime!
I cannot say enough amazing things about Ryan and his team!!! We had an absolutely perfect experience working with Ryan Films for our wedding day! From the very start Ryan was professional, communicative and organized. He answered every question we had and made everything so easy. His team day of was a dream to work with, I had Hector as my lead shooter day of. He captured our day so naturally and effortlessly and captured absolutely timeless and wonderful moments. I cannot recommend Ryan and his team enough! HIGHLY RECOMMEND, you will not be disappointed. We are delighted with the final product and the timeliness. Thank you forever and ever
I cannot say enough amazing things about Ryan and his team!!! From the very start Ryan was professional, communicative and organized. He answered every question I had and made everything so easy. His team day of was a dream to work with, I had Kristopher as my lead shooter day of. Him and the second shooter had such an ease about them and captured our day so naturally and effortlessly and captured absolutely timeless and wonderful moments. Ryan did an AMAZING job editing and creating our dream wedding video and we received it completed less than a month after our wedding. Our wedding was 9.29.23 and we received our completed video on 10.24.23. I cannot recommend Ryan and his team enough! HIGHLY RECOMMEND, you will not be disappointed.
Ryan was such a pleasure to work with! He was super organized and easy to communicate with throughout the process. When he came to the venue, he knew exactly what to do and where he needed to be and have loved his sneak peaks he has shown us so far. He was a delight to have there on our big day and made us feel at ease!
Ryan Films is a phenomenal company, but I hired Ryan himself & he is so easy and fun to work with! He guides you in a natural way to get the best footage, and the end result of our teaser video made me literally cry tears or joy & laughter! I looooove my teaser video. Can’t wait to see the full “Sugar Rush” film which is the type of package I got. He is AMAZING!! I would recommend working with Ryan Films over and over again. 🙌
Ryan was so easy to work with for our wedding. My husband and I took forever to do everything for our wedding because we both hate planning but Ryan was extremely patient and accommodating. He was really professional and offered a lot of options for packages for us within our budget. He made sure to ask us questions to get a feel of what we liked and wanted to ensure our needs were met. His team was so fun to work with the entire day and we ended up getting our sneak peek just a few days after the wedding. It was incredibly fast and we absolutely loved our video. The video even included some amazing drone footage.
We ended up having a medical emergency during the reception which ended up throwing off the timing a bit but they were so flexible and ended up staying an extra hour for us. We were so grateful for them. We're super happy we went with Ryan & his team and you'd be happy too :)
Ryan was incredible to work with. His willingness to travel to our venue in Nor Cal and accommodate our needs was great. He was super timely in putting together our wedding video. We are super thankful for all of his hard work.
We hired Ryan Films for our wedding day. We did an 8 hour package with two videographers. Kris Jones and the 2nd shooter were able to capture us getting ready, first look, the ceremony and reception. We chose the package that included the 50 minute video and it included all our moments. They did a great job!! Ryan Films had great communication throughout the whole process.
We had an absolutely perfect experience working with Ryan Films for our wedding day! Ryan was super professional and helpful in his communications with us, and Hector, our videographer on the day of, was delightful and respectful, keeping his distance during key moments, but also perfectly capturing beautiful memories. We are delighted with the final product and the timeliness. Many thanks!
We are so grateful to have worked with the Ryan Films team for both of my daughter’s weddings. We had the privilege of having Zack be part of each celebration and he did a wonderful job of capturing the joy and happiness of their wedding days. Zack is incredibly kind, creative and detail-oriented with his work. He did a great job of making everyone feel comfortable and you can tell he really cares about not only his work, but the couple he is filming. We were so excited to have a sneak peek of our daughter’s wedding just a few days after her July 2023 wedding and we cannot wait to see the final product. We love how their editing team weaves in the sermon and the speeches to really personalize their big day. We highly recommend working with Ryan Films. Thank you, Ryan, Zack and team!
Ryan came recommended by our wedding photographer and we are so happy we chose him as our videographer!! Ryan and his team were professional, communicative, a pleasure to work with and had such a wonderful eye when capturing our 3 day wedding celebration. They made us feel comfortable and in the best way possible, blended into the background to work their magic. We loved our teaser video but were absolutely BLOWN AWAY by our cinematic highlight reel! Ryan and his team did a phenomenal job of threading love and humor throughout the video to tie all of our events together. Not only did they capture the big moments, but they also captured all the small in-between moments and edited them together so perfectly. I think we've watched the video at least 20 times and fall in love with it even more each time. Your photos and videos are really the only things you get to "keep" after the wedding is done so who you choose to capture the day for you is super important. Do not hesitate another second - book Ryan and his team NOW, I promise it will be the BEST decision you make!!!
Ryan and his teammate Hector were so amazing to work with on our wedding day. They were so kind and patient. They also worked great along side with our photographer. They made us feel super comfortable and we love all the different angles they captured. We absolutely loved the teaser film Ryan put together for us and cannot wait to see the final video. So happy with our decision to hire Ryan!!
My wife and I hired Ryan through a mutual friend to film our ceremony and it was the highest quality service we paid for our whole wedding.
Ryan and his teammate Kelsey were extremely professional, kind, and were great at getting candid beautiful moments on camera without us even noticing. They let us be ourselves even on the directed shots to make OUR experience come to life.
The end results are nothing short of legit film/music video quality. Everything from the shots, editing, and music selection came out better than anything I could imagine.
My wedding day was without exaggeration the best day ever. If you want a service that will live up to the hype of that memory, you have to hire Ryan!
RyanFilms was so wonderful to work with. They stayed well hidden when needed, but were very helpful getting creative shots when needed as well. It was comfortable working with them, not awkward at all. They were kind, good at giving direction, and professional. Ryan seemed to understand our vision right away as well. We would recommend RyanFilms 100%!
We hired Ryan Films for our wedding videography in Las Vegas and we were amazed by their work. Ryan was professional, friendly, and skilled. They captured every moment of our special day with cinematic and elegant videos that we will cherish for a lifetime. They also worked well with our photographer and other vendors. The videos were delivered on time and in high quality. We highly recommend Ryan Films to anyone looking for a award-winning and trusted wedding videographer in Las Vegas. Thank you Ryan for making our wedding unforgettable! 🙌
Kris was incredible. We had such a good time filming our wedding with him. I can’t begin to thank him enough. He even sent us a beautiful 2 minute sneak peak less than a week after our wedding!
I had the pleasure of working with Hector on the day of our wedding. We were so impressed with Hector the day of and he did a great job capturing our important day. We have nothing but great things to say about the entire process. Highly recommend Ryan Films.
Ryan & his team did an amazing job capturing our wedding day! Very professional, efficient & super fun to work with! The booking process was also very easy & he offers different types of packages with reasonable pricing. Our wedding video looked like a movie. The music, the flow and everything he captured was perfect! (specially those golden hour shots!) If you are looking for a wedding videographer, you won't regret booking Ryan & his team! Thank you again Ryan for making our wedding day memorable, we will cherish those moments forever!
-Denise & Romel
Ryan and his team were exceptional to work with! From booking to the wedding day and to receiving our wedding videos, they went above and beyond! We absolutely LOVE our wedding video and we are so grateful for the additional documentary footage of the entire day. We will cherish these forever and we can't thank them enough for all of their excellent work.
On the wedding day, of course you have so many nerves and everything starts moving fast. They were so helpful and stealth, capturing all of the moments that are flying by in emotions. Now having our videos, we are so grateful to be able to relive this magical day. And not to mention how amazing the edit and the songs they chose just by the vibes they got from our ceremony/reception playlist. We are so, very happy with all of their hard work and we are forever grateful!
I am telling all of my newly engaged friends that, if your budget allows, it is a MUST to get a videographer -- and if they are in Southern CA you have to hire Ryan Films! So, if you are on the fence or looking for a videographer, look no further and book Ryan Films. You will be so happy that you did!
I spoke with many videographers and I hit it off immediately with Ryan. We had the privilege of working with Zack and Brenda on our Wedding Day and they were absolutely phenomenal. They were friendly, caring, and communicated with us every step of the way. By the end of the night they felt more like close friends than a hired vendor. The highlight film and our wedding video came out terrific and we have re-watched it many times since then. Thank you Ryan, Zack, and Brenda for capturing our wedding and making our video a memorable moment that we will treasure forever!
Ryan was absolutely incredible to work with!! He was professional, kind, creative, and fun!! He made my husband and I's wedding day experience perfect. Plus, his work is absolutely AMAZING!! He always responds in a timely manner and does not take long to get your final products back to you. Would highly recommend in a heartbeat!!<3
Ryan and his team are so amazing! My husband and I choose Ryan Films because we loved his style of shooting and how amazing his videos were online. Little did I realize this was just the icing on the cake. He was so easy to work with, so responsive, has multiple options for video packages depending on what you are looking for, and made our wedding day shooting so easy. Ryan and his second shooter fit seamlessly into the day. I felt like we really just got to enjoy the moments and he captured them perfectly. Could not recommend Ryan and his team more!
We had Zack, Brenda, and Kris as our film team for our wedding in September. We have nothing but amazing things to say about this team. They were interactive, professional, and engaged the entire day. When they had to make adjustments, they did so seamlessly. Throughout the process starting many months in advance, they helped make us feel comfortable, prepared, and excited for our wedding. Their preview, which was delivered in their expected time frame, was phenomenal and made us even more excited about the full length wedding video. The wedding video brought us to tears and better than anything we could have ever imagined. I cannot recommend Ryan Films and his team enough. Although we did not have the pleasure of meeting the other staff members, if they are anything like Zack, Brenda, and Kris, you are in fantastic hands. We cannot thank them enough for giving us a visual memory that will last a lifetime. If you are in San Diego and need a videographer, Ryan Films should be at the very front of your list.
Ryan and his team are so incredibly talented! I am so happy I chose them for our wedding video. We are absolutely obsessed with how the videos turned out. We will cherish them forever. I definitely recommend Ryan and his team!! They are professional, responsive, talented and super fun to work with! Thanks Ryan!!
so happy we picked Ryan & his team ; I feel like we got such a great variety of videos to keep forever at a reasonable price!!! They were a pleasure to work with and we got our videos back SO FAST! quality, music, and all the scenes were blended so well , I’m obsessed!
We had Mia & Cat as our videographers and they did an amazing job! They were so friendly, easy to work with & made us feel comfortable the whole time! We just got our highlight reel and are in love! Highly recommend!
What an amazing experience! Ryan and his second shooter Victoria made our wedding day such a breeze and really allowed us to enjoy ourselves. Ryan had such a great calmness about him that made us feel so comfortable throughout the day.
My husband and I were very specific in the style we wanted for the video and Ryan was amazing at taking our vision and allowing us to share exactly what we wanted and feedback to make sure it was perfect! From the beginning, he told us he wanted this video to be what we wanted and for us to love it forever. We can tell by the effort that he put in that he meant it and we are so appreciative of that!
We can’t thank Ryan and his team enough. Our wedding wouldn’t be the same without him!
Ryan and his team are leaders in the videography for weddings for a reason. They produce magic from what they capture and everything from their editing, lighting and audio is top notch. Ryan is professional, responsive to requests and ideas, and so easy going that you feel a friend is being there for your special day. We even got a special surprise that our teaser video was emailed to us less than 2 days after the wedding! Waiting for our documentary length wedding video was long, but worth it. It felt like our wedding was yesterday and moved us to tears once again! I still watch our wedding videos from time to time and it never gets old.
At the beginning, I wasn’t sure if I wanted to hire a videographer but my sister convinced me that I should and oh boy I’m so glad that I did. Ryan is extremely responsive. He answered all my questions and concerns. We had Zack and Brenda as our shooters. They arrived at the hotel on time and quickly got to work. They are polite, sweet and easy to work with. We just received our 1 minute sneak peak and we are in love. Highly recommend Ryan and his team for your wedding!!! You won’t be disappointed!!
I learned about Ryan Films through my wonderful photographer, Stephy Wong. When I saw their work on Instagram I was instantly hooked. The videography I saw was absolutely beautiful, so I reached out for a quote. The communication was great and Ryan kept us informed up until the day of my husband and I’s wedding. Our lead filmmaker was Cat and she was the best! She made our experience super positive and there was never once a time when we felt uncomfortable. After viewing our sneak peek video, my husband and I knew we made the best choice. I highly recommend Ryan Films. The team is great and the videography is everything I could have hoped for and more.
If you're wondering if you should get Ryan Films for your wedding videography, DEFINITELY GO FOR IT!!
His website was incredibly easy to use and transparent about packages and pricing. He was very easy to contact and get quick responses from. There's no back and forth with consultation and pricing, it was all very clear and straight forward which I definitely appreciate after having worked with so many vendors that had a 10 step process to even get to a contract. When we told Ryan up front that we'd need a custom package to work with our budget, he was happy to oblige, worked with us on services that most fit our needs, and came to a happy agreement.
On the day of the wedding, his team consisting of Hector and Alec were fantastic to work with, very professional and punctual people. They presented themselves as very knowledgable in cinematography and we even talked a bit of shop about the tools used in editing etc.
After the wedding, Ryan was very punctual and delivered our video and raw footage in a hard drive in a timely manner and was incredibly communicative and responsive then as well.
The video was breathtaking!!! We relived that day all over again and it made us tear up as well as our parents tear up all over again.
Best ever, no complaints! You can rest easy knowing you will have a great experience working with Ryan Films!!!
We communicated early with Ryan to know the ins and outs of the contract, and we were pleased with how open and transparent Ryan is about how he operates his business. We had a few conversations with various videographers and had the best feeling from Ryan. His experience at our venue (the Prado in Balboa Park) was apparent as he obtained numerous shots that I had no idea were possible or even merely available.
His demeanor was energetic and positive; he gave us good direction, and he made sure we didn't waste time and to enjoy the wedding with our guests. His assistants were the same and had artistic style in their camera handling. Ryan also supported and accommodated some of our requests in the moment, to get shots we asked for spontaneously (an under-the-veil kiss moment, for example). We had both a photographer (Walter Wilson) and a videographer, and both teams had great report with each other. They worked with each other and also gave space to each other to capture the moments they were looking for. Ryan's work with the venue, photographer, and coordinator showed he is a consummate professional and I highly recommend him. No reservations at all.
Our final package included many add-ons, including an additional hour, that were very reasonably priced. We also added on a third camera to catch so many extra images and we are so grateful for that. Each of Ryan's assistants were helpful in identifying good angles, making specific takes look great, and the final products (teaser video, cinematic video, and guest message video) were excellent. Great splicing of moments, sound quality was excellent, and the camera control was particularly well done.
My wife and I simply can't say enough about how happy we are with our choice to go with Ryan.
Highly recommend RyanFilms SD for your videography team on your wedding day. They are truly such kind people and so good at what they do.
Hector & Kris were the most delightful people to work with!! Almost like video ninjas. You can’t see them, but they’re there 😂 They also worked really well with our photographer. Ryan himself was incredibly responsive any time I had a question or shared updates.
We got our sneak peek and are already in love. They are such a blessing and a curse. Just leaves us wanting more!! 😭 I will say the wait time to receive our fully edited videos are on the longer side, but I’m sure it’ll be worth the wait. So excited to see the other videos!
We used Ryan Films for our big day and couldn’t have been happier!! The wedding video we got back is so perfect and captured our day in the most special way so the their unique editing skills. Petey was amazing the entire day!! He got everything and you barely noticed the camera filming. Definitely would HIGHLY recommend Ryan Films to anyone looking for a great videographer!
Working with Ryan Films for our wedding was one of the best decisions I could've made. From the get go, Ryan was very thorough in his communication with us and was very patient in answering all of our questions. For our wedding we went with the Junior Videographer package but let me tell you, there's nothing Junior about our video. Hector and Petey were professional, reassuring, funny, and made us feel comfortable on camera. The teaser video has been a great treat to share with friends.
We also added the photo booth to our package and it was worth it. Once it was set up, guests were using it non stop and it made the night that much better. Going through Ryan Films for the booth was really easy and it helped to minimize the amount of vendors we worked with. Highly recommend. You can't go wrong with Ryan Films. Though I hope to only do this the one time, if I were to do it again, they would be one of my first calls.
Hector, Petey, and Ryan, thank you for making our wedding day so special!
I am so glad Ryan was available for our wedding date, he was professional, quick to respond, eased all the wedding planning and wedding day nerves, chill happy vibes, and his work is absolutely AMAZING!!
We are so happy with his work and the way he captured our day. 10/10 recommend!! If you want a videographer, go with Ryan, and secure the date with him soon... he was my #1 vendor choice for videography and even all my friends who got married in SD recommended him to me & had all the best things to say about him!
Ryan and his team did such a great job capturing our wedding. We received our wedding teaser less than two weeks after our wedding, and it was perfect! We were so pleased with how it turned out, and even though it was just a minute long, as intended, it really demonstrated the feelings and mood of our wedding day. We were so glad we chose Ryan Films for our videographers and would suggest them to all others. Moreover, we wanted to give a shout out to Cat and Hector who did such a great job with direction during the actual day and captured all the important moments. We look forward to our full length video, which we are sure will be amazing, just like the teaser.
We booked with Ryan Films back in 2020 and had to make some pandemic changes. Ryan and his team did an amazing job capturing our ceremony. Fast forward to 2022, Ryan kept in touch and gather all up to date information for our postponed reception and made sure we were all set for our big day. We had the pleasure of having Zack and Brenda shoot all day and let me tell you, we received our sneak peak trailer 2 days after our wedding date and I cant explain the footage that they were able to capture without being all in your face. I literally barely saw them but when we did, direction was smooth, quick and so much fun! The drone footage Zack was able to get was the icing on the cake. We have already received so much positive feedback on how our trailer came out. If we come back with a 3rd wedding celebration we will most definitely be booking with Ryan Films! Thanks team!
First, if you are debating on getting a videographer just DO IT! Second, hire Ryan and his team :)
Through the whole process Ryan was professional and easy to work with. The day of the wedding we had Ryan and Mia. They were both so sweet, genuine and FUN! Ryan knew exactly how to guide the poses and capturing the “in the moment” shots. Overall we both felt so comfortable! We didn’t feel nervous at all with having him “follow us”, honestly you don’t even recognize they are there! When our crowd was dancing and having the time of their life, I quickly saw Ryan and saw him smiling and enjoying the crowd with his camera, he is truly passionate about capturing the best moments.
When we got our teaser, of course we immediately cried! Once we received our final video, it felt like were watching a movie! The moments he captured were just BEYOND amazing. Everything from the music, to the style, to the scenes recorded, it was just was PERFECT!!!
Thank you for capturing the best day of our lives! We are forever grateful.
I highly recommend Ryan and his team.
Hector and Brenda were great!
Ryan was excellent to worth with throughout the planning process. He was timely, organized and professional. My shooters the day of were Cat and Petey and both were a delight to work with. I did not have a planner or day of coordinator and they helped to keep us on track throughout the day without us feeling rushed. The sneak peek I have seen looks amazing and can't wait to see the whole film. Drone footage was awesome too!
Ryan and his crew are absolutely amazing! Ryan was recommended to us by our photographer and from the moment we connected I knew he was the perfect match for us! He was really invested in getting to know us and what we wanted. After chatting he suggested we take a look at his newer film company called Sugar Rush which focused more on the fun of the day but still incorporated all the special moments. We instantly fell in love and could not be happier with our decision to go this route! His communication throughout the process was phenomenal and he was fun and easy to interact with on the big day! Most importantly, the video captured US perfectly and I cannot express how grateful we are to have this memory forever!
It's been a week since our wedding and we're already getting to swoon over the sneak peek teaser we just received from Ryan Films! Zack and Mia did SUCH an incredible job capturing our day.
Zack and Mia were so great. I think what really stands out about them is how seamless everything was. We never felt like we were "on camera". They worked hand in hand with our photographer to capture moments from our day in such a non-intrusive way that left us feeling calm and kept things looking so natural. I've already watched our video what feels like a thousand times and can't stop smiling over the raw emotions and candid energy they were able to capture.
One moment that stands out to me is that right before our first look, Zack stopped me and reminded me that this would be one of our only moments for just us so to embrace it and take as long as we wanted to soak in that moment. Everything he said was so true and it was one of the most special moments of our day. Throughout our day, that was a testament for how Zack and Mia interacted with us. They felt like old friends and always made us feel comfortable and were just so fun to be around. At one point, Zack even handed the camera to my husband for him to take footage of me. We laughed and truly enjoyed having them capture such special memories for us.
If you're at all on the fence about hiring a videographer, do it. There's something that video captures that is so unique. What a beautiful way to get to re-live such a special moment in time.
We specifically went with Ryan Films because we wanted the option to also get all of the raw footage, which they provide as an add on. In addition, we also wanted the ability for our videographers to capture drone footage. The drone footage included in our video is so incredible! The quality of the video we were provided is more than we could have imagined and truly out of this world! Zack and Mia did a phenomenal job and we are so appreciative of them!
We are so happy that we chose Ryan Films as our videographer! They were a delight to work with at every turn. Ryan was really helpful on our initial phone call, and in making sure everything was all set for the big day. Kris and Alec were our videographers, and they were such a joy to work with. From the second they showed up, they were helpful, fun, and warm. They were great at directing us and helping us feel comfortable in the shots with just the two of us, and then they were awesome the rest of the day/night at blending in with our guests and capturing some amazing footage. They had a great sense of humor, and they clearly enjoy their work and sharing in the joy that they are helping to capture. We never felt nervous or self-conscious, and barely noticed we were being filmed. And the finished product is just incredible! The footage they captured and the way Ryan Films edited it truly captured the essence of the day. The music they chose to put our footage to matched our vibe perfectly, and they chose some of the most beautiful words from the ceremony and speeches to include. We originally ordered the cinematic highlight reel, and ended up adding on the full ceremony cut and reception cut as well. We were so stoked and surprised by the 1 minute teaser video they sent us a week after the wedding! And they were very timely in their delivery of our full finished product. We will treasure these videos forever and ever, and are so grateful to have footage to look back on and share for years to come. Thank you for your beautiful work, Ryan Films! We can't recommend you guys highly enough!
I discovered Ryan Films through some online research, and I’m so glad that I did! From the start, his communication was great and I could tell how knowledgeable and experienced he was. The whole planning process was so simple and user-friendly, and Ryan was always so nice about answering any emails and questions! The day of the wedding, him and his assistant, Zach, were there to capture the whole day and they were super fun and easy to work with. They made everything flow so smoothly and worked great alongside our other vendors. We got our sneak peek video the next morning, and it brought me to tears! It was so beautifully put together, and I’m looking forward to seeing the finished product! I have no doubt that it will be something we will treasure for a lifetime. Thank you, Ryan and Zach!
I cannot rave enough about Ryan Films!!! They are incredible and worth every penny. Ryan is so talented and super responsive from start to finish. Zack and Brenda on his team were the ones who came and shot my wedding, and they could not have made the experience more enjoyable. They were super friendly and made me feel relaxed and not awkward at all in front of the camera. I just got my sneak peek video back and have been crying for two days straight! They got amazing shots. Thank you Ryan Films for everything and for capturing the biggest day of my life so perfectly!
Margie and her team were absolutely amazing! We hired a guitarist (Nicco) and a violin duet and we got so many compliments about their talent. Working with Margie and her team was extremely easy and stress free. Margie gets back to you in a timely manner and answers all your questions. We are so glad we spent the extra money and hired Margie and her team for our wedding. They played ceremony and cocktail hour songs beautifully! Can not express how impressed we were with this vendor. Thank You Margie and Team.
Hector and Zach did such an amazing job!! They went above and beyond and even took the time to get the one shot we really wanted. They were so nice and super easy to work with. Our video is absolutely beautiful! I highly recommend this company! So happy I chose them for our big day!
Book this team for your wedding video! All of my expectations were completely blown away. Throughout the planning process, Ryan was super responsive and worked with us when we had a change of locations. Day of our wedding, Zak and Petey were our video team. They were hands down THE BEST. They were super friendly, very easy to talk to, and made it feel like they weren’t even there when filming (which was great because I was worried about feeling awkward in video!) Zak was great about helping us relax and just reminding us to smile if we didn’t know what else to do. Zak even went as far as heading into our reception before us so he could get us drinks ordered. So attentive and made us feel so special! We just got our sneak peek video, two days after our wedding, and it’s just perfect. I have watched it so many times already. I can’t wait to see the full videos, I know they will be great! Thank you Ryan, Zak, Petey and the RyanFilms SD team!!
WOW! I am beyond impressed with the quality of my wedding video. Ryan and his team did a phenomenal job of capturing the tone and feeling of the wedding. I know my husband and I will cherish this video and watch it again and again for years to come. During the wedding, Ryan and Zach were so calm and collected and helped us let loose and enjoy our big day. They also worked great with our photographer, and we never felt like we had a camera in our face during important moments. I absolutely cannot recommend them enough.
We used Ryan twice for our pandemic mini-mony and our reception 2 years later. Ryan and his team delivered BOTH times. They captured our wedding(s) perfectly. He is so talented, fast, and responsive. We really love his work. Shoot we might even have a 3rd wedding for fun just to have him capture it again.
Due to the pandemic, we decided to hire a videographer last minute to film our wedding. My wedding coordinator recommended RyanFilms and thankfully, he was available.
Ryan was so patient and understanding with us as we just wanted him to record our ceremony.
My husband and I were so moved when he sent us the wedding video. It is a beautiful video that we will treasure for the rest of our lives.
He was also kind to send us a shareable link so we can share it with my husband's extended family in Ireland.
I highly recommend Ryan for any major event.
With every wedding vendor, there’s always at least two periods of interactions that you want to make sure goes smoothly: the pre-wedding planning and the day of the wedding. With videography vendors, there’s the added post-wedding communication/production that you want to make sure goes well too. We’re happy to report that Ryan Films did an excellent job on all fronts for our wedding.
During the planning portion of our wedding, Ryan was very accommodating and would always try to respond to our questions as quickly and thoroughly as he can via email or text. Having a responsive vendor is essential when you pick who to include in your wedding team because planning weddings, while fun, is stressful and you don’t want the added stress of having to wait a whole week before hearing back on something or worse, being ignored altogether. Ryan was always very patient and sincere when answering questions, and I had many! He made sure to address all my concerns and would never express any hint of annoyance from my constant stream of questions.
On our wedding day, Ryan Films was one of our favorite vendors to work with. Right as he arrived, he brought a ton of positive energy and enthusiasm. He acts like your personal cheerleader to help you feel confident and comfortable as you’re being filmed.
Lastly, when we finally received our wedding video (which did take awhile, about 15 weeks or so), we were very happy with the result. The music and clips he chose to put together really highlighted the best parts of the wedding. There were a couple small areas that I wanted to have edited and he responded within days to make those edits and was again, very accommodating. All in all, I really recommend Ryan Films for your wedding videographer if you want someone who’s responsive, who brings a lot of excitement and enthusiasm, and who is committed to your satisfaction in producing a video that you’ll love.
I've been meaning to write this review for months but I cannot say enough great things about Ryan and his team! He captured our wedding so beautifully and was very personable. I highly recommend working with him and allowing him to film your special day. Everyone loved our videos and I can't thank him enough.
Hands down the best team ever. They are so nice and you barely even know they are there. 10000/10!!!!!!!!!!
We had such a lovely experience with Ryan Films SD. Our videographers were Zack and Hector, and each was friendly and professional. They worked in concert with our photographer to get the shots they needed efficiently so we could spend more time enjoying our wedding. They were super nice and made everything feel natural. Ryan Films SD sent us a 2-minute "teaser" a few days after our wedding, and my wife watched it at least 10 times the week we received it. Such a hit. I wasn't sure it was worth hiring a videographer since we had a photographer but - while we loved our wedding photos - there are some things that just lend themselves better to video and I'm so grateful we have them on film. We loved working with Zack and Hector and we would work with them and Ryan Films again without hesitation.
Not enough good things can be said about Ryan Films! To start, Ryan was SO communicative and prompt. From the time I first inquired until the wedding day, he answered my emails quickly and never made me feel like I was asking too many questions. Fast forward to the wedding day; Sunny and Kris were AWESOME. Most of the time, we barely knew they were there. The footage we've received is incredible and really captured our day perfectly. I teared up watching it, and am so thankful to Ryan, Sunny and Kris for giving my husband and I (and our future family) something beautiful we can look back on for years to come. Plus, if you're looking for some great dancers to really get the party going, Sunny and Kris really have the moves. We had so much fun with them at our reception! If you're looking for fantastic wedding videography, don't hesitate in hiring Ryan Films!
We recently received our sneak preview of our wedding video and have already watched it over and over again! Zack and Petey did an amazing job capturing our day and making us feel comfortable being filmed. Zack went above and beyond with help putting on my veil and had an emergency pair of scissors handy! Everyone at Ryan Films has been super helpful and responsive. If you want a great quality video that captures your overall event plus intimate moments and exceptional service you can't go wrong with Ryan Films!!
Ryan Films provided videography for our wedding day and were amazing! The Ryan Films team worked closely with our photographers and captured our day perfectly. All of this was done without being intrusive. They had asked how much direction we preferred, and even though we gave them free reign, they did not demand any uncomfortable or staged moments. Once our portrait sessions had concluded, it was as though they disappeared into the background, completely unobtrusive. Hector and Brenda were professional, courteous and allowed us to be ourselves on the day of. So far we have only seen our sneak peak film and love it! Can’t wait to see the rest of our videos. Would highly recommend Ryan Films for your wedding or special event!
Stop looking and book Ryan Green Films now! Ryan is so incredibly talented you will not be disappointed.
My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Ryan for not only one but both of our wedding days. He filmed our elopement and then our reception a year later. Our elopement film is so special and intimate, he truly captured every little detail and then some. We didn't think he would be able to top it the second time around for our reception but, he again, out did himself. We have watched both films a multitude of times and so have our friends and family. There is something so incredibly magical about being able to relive the day not only through video but through his eyes and talent.
He was extremely professional, personable, and attentive from the first day we contacted him to the final video delivery. He even goes above and beyond to help groomsmen and the groom in getting ready. From tying ties to fastening boutonnieres all while still capturing these fun moments on film, without a trace of him in any of the footage.
Ryan also works especially well with your photographers. We had two different photographs for both our events and at both events you would have thought Ryan and our photographers had worked together for years. When in actuality they just met that day.
We were truly sad to part ways with him after our reception, as he felt like a member of our family. We could go on and on about Ryan and how wonderful he is. But let his work speak for itself. You won't find a more personable, down-to-earth videographer with his incredible talent and eye!
Cat and Kris were absolutely amazing to work with on our wedding day! They were fun and didn't make anything awkward. We had 2 photographers along with Cat and Kris and I was a bit worried that 4 extra bodies could be a bit much, but we honestly hardly even noticed that they were there! They were so graceful and still captured the most incredible footage. We have already received our sneak peak video and it is absolutely perfect. It is incredible how it brings back all of the emotions of that day in just 60 seconds. Do yourself a favor and hire Ryan Films!
AMAZING TEAM! Before our wedding day Ryan was super responsive via email whenever we had a question. He was organized and made everything very easy for us. On the actual day of our wedding (back in August) we had Zack and Kris. My husband and I didn't even notice them (in the nicest way possible ha!) They were both very professional and creative with the footage they wanted to get. They were also super easy to work with and were fast with the turnaround time for the teaser video and full video! Cannot recommend Ryan Films enough!
Ryan and team made us feel so comfortable on our wedding day. We felt like we had one of our friends there filming us, which made our footage look so authentic. The final video is such a wonderful representation of our wedding day and I am so glad we booked Ryan!! The sneak peak was delivered within days of our June wedding and our full video was delivered perfectly on time. Ryan is professional, friendly, and so creative. I highly recommend Ryan Films!
The videographer I had booked 1.5 years before my wedding cancelled on me A WEEK BEFORE! I was completely devastated and did not think I would find a videographer whose work I liked. I frantically searched and found Ryan Films SD. After looking through their instagram page, I was convinced, I absolutely loved their work.
Zack and Kris did an amazing job on our wedding day. Extremely attentive (even brought us water when we were parched). Just overall incredibly happy with their professionalism and demeanor. They made us feel so comfortable even when it can get somewhat awkward at times posing for so many pictures.
I received a teaser video just 4 days after our wedding day and cried all over again! They really caught all the beautiful moments in such a beautiful way. Thank you so much! I can't thank Zack and Kris enough.
Ryan & Team gave us the best wedding gift we could've asked for, in the form of our wedding video and footage! Not only were they flexible with date and location changes over the course of our ~2 year COVID wedding planning process, but we were also super impressed by their quick and consistent communication throughout, overall turn around time, and amazing quality of their work. It was so fun and surprising receiving our teaser video just a few days after our wedding, which left us wanting more and so excited for the extended video and raw footage. We were worried about the day of seeming too rehearsed and having video and photo in our face the whole time, but that couldn't have been more wrong. The team truly did act like "flies on the wall" which made the coverage they got even more impressive! We are so glad we decided to hire Ryan and his team to capture our special day and will look back on our video for the rest of our lives.
Although we haven’t received our full wedding video yet, Ryan sent us the teaser within less than 24 hours of our wedding and it was AMAZING. We’ve probably watched it 50 times by now. He really takes his time to make sure he gets the perfect shots for video. We can’t wait to see the full video!! Ryan is incredible!!
Ryan – Thank you for being a part of Christian and I’s special day! WOW! We are just so thankful we hired this amazing team for our wedding day. We fell in love with Ryan Films approach to videography! Just incredible to work with. Ryan was very communicative and so quick to get us a wedding teaser video! We can’t wait to see the full highlights reel and the raw footage. On our wedding day, Ryan and Lucy worked so seamlessly with our Photographers to capture the best memories. Ryan even got some amazing drone footage of our venue overlooking the Carlsbad coast. If you’re looking for a wedding videographer, look no further as Ryan and his team are fantastic!
The shooters (Zach and Mia) did an incredible job capturing the shots and sound for our last minute wedding. Zach specifically was amazing, helping my friend (who was the photographer) organize the 100 people into a group for photos and video. He had great ideas and poses for my husband and I as well, yet were flexible with our goofy personalities. I loved their professionalism and attention to detail. They adjusted my hair and ring several times, which I appreciated. I love that they brought the drone in too to get some fun shots! The video was produced in a timely manner and I’m overall happy with the turnout. I would have appreciated it if we were included in the song selection process because I’m not the biggest fan of the songs selected; one part of the song makes me cringe because it hits such a weird note. It was in both our highlight video and our 10 minute video. That’s why I’m not giving 5 stars. Otherwise, they were great! I’d definitely recommend them :)
Ryan was an incredible wedding photographer. Loved chatting on the phone to talk about our vision. He arrived super early day-of and was so easy to work with. He explained how we shouldn’t look into the video lens, and instead be natural almost pretending he wasn’t there—this was super helpful. He also captured great drone shots of the venue. The video was amazing! Highly recommend!
Ryan and his team were awesome to work with!! Leading up to the wedding, they were so professional and efficient in communicating, which made the booking process so easy. Ryan also had a great network of photographers he had worked with before. So, when we needed to hire a new one ASAP, he sent us a list of some excellent choices. On the day of the wedding, his team was prompt, kept us focused, and stayed subtly to the sides during the ceremony, all while capturing beautiful footage! He sent us a teaser trailer pretty quickly after our wedding, and the final product was better than we ever imagined! Thank you for capturing the best day of our lives! I'm so excited to show this video to our kids and grandkids one day.
Thank you Ryan Films and our lead videographer Sunny. We received our "sneak peak" video already and LOVE it! I didn't cry at the wedding, but I did watching the video! Sunny is creative and was a pleasure to work with. Ryan was very flexible with rescheduling us twice due to COVID. Thank you!
