Ryan Geldermann Cinematography

Ryan and his team were absolutely PHENOMENAL, and his videography, cinematography and livestream services are amazing. In light of the pandemic we were limited with the number of guests at our wedding, and so Ryan live-streamed our event for our friends and family. Our "remote guests" were amazed at how they were able to see and hear everything. They all reported how they felt like they were really there - they didn't miss anything! There were 3 cameras, and live-editing, and while it certainly isn't the same as having people physically at your event, I know all of our friends and family were super impressed at the quality of the live-stream, and enjoyed the opportunity to attend our wedding while remaining safe and healthy at home (with champagne and popcorn). I highly recommend Ryan and his top notch live-stream services for any wedding or future life event!

I don't think that words will accurately convey just how pleased I am with the services I received from Ryan and his team, however, I will try. I apologize in advance for the length, but I feel like telling my story will really make you understand my review. We planned a large destination wedding for over 230 guests where 90% of our guests would have had to travel in and we were super excited to travel with our guests to have a beautiful wedding. We paid off our wedding in full and then, just a few short weeks later, Covid-19 blew up every plan that we had. We were forced to abandon our plans, but received no money back from our original plans. We quickly decided to pivot and get married in Maryland instead and we slashed our guest list by over 75%. We planned this smaller wedding in a matter of 8 weeks with the idea that we could somehow livestream it to all of those loved ones who were unable to join us. I found Ryan's company through a google search and he was offering a special for couples affected by Covid at a great price that we really couldn't believe. I was skeptical, but he was super responsive and answered every question I had and also linked me with a videographer to supplement our experience. One of the things that saddened me most about our altered wedding plans was that our loved ones who could not be there would not be able to witness our union. When we came across this option, we immediately created a private facebook group for all of our invited guests (and some that we would have loved to invite, but could not due to restrictions on the original guest count). On the day of our wedding, there were chats, zoom conference calls, phone conferences, etc and they all interacted with each other while watching our wedding. I have pictures of my loved ones dressed up and drinking champagne while watching, watching the live stream via their big screen television, etc. They all remarked about how clear the live stream was and how it made them truly feel like they were there. This is the best investment you could ever make in a situation like we were in. It brings me to tears to know that our loved ones did not miss sharing our day. Everyone exclaimed that the quality was beyond what they expected and it was so much better than simply having someone "go live" because we didn't have to worry about any of our guests being tasked with the duty of not enjoying themselves because they had to monitor the live stream. I am forever grateful to Ryann and his team, who got both my fully edited live stream video AND a feature video edited and over to me within just over a week. If you are considering this service for your special day, please book them immediately, if not sooner. You will NOT regret it! Thank you so much Ryan!! Christopher and Erika

Ryan did an absolutely fantastic job live-streaming our wedding, and we strongly urge every couple looking for a wedding videographer to hire him! Ryan was responsive, courteous, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the final product. Our wedding was outdoors in a relatively remote location and yet there were absolutely no streaming issues! We had more than 110 people watching the ceremony live from across the globe and it went off without a hitch! Ryan used three different HD video cameras and multiple microphones edited in real-time to create an incredible viewing experience. An unexpected surprise was that our guests emailed us screenshots from the ceremony, so we ended up having high-definition pictures within minutes of being married! Ryan even did a post-wedding edit so that the final product we get to keep forever was event more perfect. And on top of all of that, Ryan’s rates were extremely reasonable. Finally, as a professional, Ryan was a joy to communicate with. Every email that we sent him was answered basically within the hour, and he went above and beyond to make sure that we were thrilled with the final product. Hiring Ryan was one of the best decisions we made in our planning our wedding. Because of Ryan’s live-streaming services, it really felt like we had the big wedding we had originally planned. We are so grateful to him!

Let me begin this post by explaining that I have been a professional wedding planner for 7+ years. Therefore I hold all of my vendors to a certain standard... Ryan and his team surpassed this standard tenfold! From the booking process and through planning, Ryan was always responsive and helpful if I had a question or concern. On the day of, he and his team arrived early and began working right away. They made everyone feel comfortable and beautiful all day long! My favorite part about Ryan and his team was the fact that I would forget they were there. We were just so comfortable and happy and in our element. Less than two weeks after the wedding, we had our extended highlight film and I have watched it no less than 10 times. It was so perfect- it truly surpassed every expectation I had when it came to our video. If you are hesitant about hiring a videographer, DON'T BE! Having Ryan's video to show our families, children and grandchildren one day has been the greatest gift we ever got. Absolutely blew my mind how wonderful this whole experience was. Thank you so very much Ryan!
