Everything was lovely and friendly and exciting until I sent ShoFilms the final deposit (totaling ~$6,000) and it all went down hill from there
Leading up to our wedding-
I emailed and called Paul multiple times to confirm the wedding day timeline with no response. I informed my photographer who then posted on the Elizabeth Forward Facebook page asking if anyone knew of the wellbeing of Paul because she was shooting a wedding with him but hadn’t heard from him. He of course immediately responded to me and asked photographer to remove the post. I assumed he was busy, no hard feelings, and moved on.
Wedding day-
Paul and his second shooter arrived on time and stayed the duration of the wedding. However, there were many, many times throughout the night where we found ourselves looking around thinking “wow I hope this moment was caught on film” only for the videographers to be nowhere in sight. I understand we’re all human and need breaks and no one can video for a straight 12 hours, but it got to a point where we didn’t even know if the videographers were still at the venue. Turns out that they spent a lot of time relaxing in the bridal lounge with their feet up on the table. I gave them the benefit of the doubt, assumed I caught them in the middle of a break, and didn’t let it ruin our very perfect wedding day :)
Post wedding -
When booking, Paul told me that I would get a teaser video the day after our wedding, a highlight video 3 months after our wedding, and the rest of the videos 6 months after our wedding. As months passed by without receiving any videos, I began calling, emailing, and texting countless times without any replies. On the rare occurrences I did get a response, it was “2 more weeks” and then months would pass without me receiving a damn thing (note the dates in the texts). These screenshots speak for themselves. As we are celebrating our ONE YEAR anniversary, I decided to try one last time with Paul. He FINALLY responded with videos. However, our reception video seemed to have cut off around 6:00PM, even though we had paid for coverage until 9:30PM. I questioned this and he replied that my package was for “up to 12 hours”, (even though it clearly says 12 hours on ShoFilms website, in screenshot photo). I asked him to send me the raw footage because at this point, I would rather have an unedited video than nothing at all. He replied that the raw footage would cost $700. Admittedly I am unfamiliar with what work goes into compiling raw footage, but naive me assumed that after making me not only wait an entire year but also completely ignoring me through the process, he would’ve given them to me for free🤷🏼♀️
Paul and his assistant Chris from ShoFilms were exactly what we were looking for in a wedding videographer. They knew exactly how to interact with us, our bridal party, and our guests to get a great mix of shots throughout the night. Plus, they were fun to hangout with. They got us a great teaser reel less than a week after our event and, if it's anything to go by, our full wedding video will be incredible. Their editing is top notch and displays a thoughtfulness and creativity-both in video and audio-that was beyond our expectations. We would absolutely recommend working with ShoFilms for your wedding.
Really beautiful work and memories captured on our highlight/teaser video, the 10 min feature, the ceremony, toasts and reception edits. I loved reliving it all while watching these, and it's so nice to have clips from each part of the day like this. Paul and Chris were really chill and great to work with!
If you do not have a videographer booked, get one if you can! We have only gotten our teaser so far, and we are OBSESSED. A videographer captures your wedding day in a way that pictures can’t. Paul and his team are EXTREMELY talented and also extremely passionate about videography. He is very busy, so it may take him a little while to get back to you, but on your wedding day and when he is making your video, he gives you his undivided attention and creates incredible work. If you want a cinematic masterpiece, book shofilms! Highly recommend!
Paul and ShoFilms were so amazing!!! We debated for awhile if we should book a videographer and decided to reach out to Paul 2 months before our wedding and we were so thrilled he was available! My husband has very high standards with quality of film and after reviewing many videography vendors, he was shocked at the high quality of ShoFilms! We knew we had to have them! It was the best decision we made hiring Paul and his team!! They were so friendly and made the day so much fun! We vibed with them from the start! They made our day so incredibly special. The teaser film has made us cry over and over again and we can’t wait to see the final product! Thank you for turning our dream wedding into a reality! It was a day we will remember for the rest of our lives!
Paul was absolutely perfect! The quality of his work is the best in the business! We have only received the teaser so far, and absolutely love it!! We have received so many compliments including “this looks like a movie!” Trust me, it is worth every penny to capture your day! Paul, thank you for capturing memories to last a lifetime and videos to be shared for years to come!
Paul and his crew are the best in the business. If you want the best all around videographer there is in the business Shofilms in the place to go. They went above and beyond to accommodate us on our special day and we were so lucky to have then with us. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for videographer of any sorts
I can’t say enough good things about Shofilms! They truly captured our day perfectly and were such a blast to work with! They made us feel so comfortable and they got the most authentic footage! Great people and great at what they do. I would highly recommend!
Paul and his team are quite incredible. Their movies are truly pieces of art. I knew during the wedding process that the videographer was key, this is something we will share with future friends and family that captures every part of the day. I watched my wedding highlight film more than a million times the day it was delivered to my email - Paul captured every emotion that filled my heart that day. If you plan on booking Paul, email is the best way to communicate with him! I am so happy with my decision to book Sho Films and look forward to viewing any videos they produce of other weddings.
ShoFilms was hands down the best investment we made for our wedding day! Paul and his team were amazing! From the initial consultation to our wedding day, they covered every detail! Our teaser video was everything we had hoped for and more! We can’t wait to receive our full video! ShoFilms brought our wedding day to life through a video in a way we never imagined! I would recommend them over and over again!
I first saw ShoFilms' fabulous work several years ago, when one of my friends from high school posted a short 'teaser' video on her Facebook page from her wedding. After seeing that video, I knew that if I ever got engaged I would book ShoFilms for my wedding! Fast forward a few years, and sure enough, after the proposal and securing dates with the church/reception venue, ShoFilms was the first vendor I called. I was thrilled to hear that they were available on my date, and after I booked them I recall saying something like, "I don't care who any of our other vendors are - I got ShoFilms!" They certainly didn't disappoint. I was a little nervous because we did not meet with them prior to the wedding day and only had to fill out a short survey, but when the day arrived they were perfectly organized and knew EXACTLY what they were doing. Paul and his team were clear professionals and were a joy to work with. They made us feel very comfortable and natural, and they coordinated well with our photographer, which led to some amazing shots. They delivered the 'teaser' video very quickly after the wedding, and it turned out beautifully. I am so glad that I hired them. Many wedding videos can be cringe-worthy, but that is absolutely not the case with videos by ShoFilms. They make everything look so natural and edit the videos beautifully. I really cannot say enough good things about ShoFilms. THANK YOU!!!
ShoFilms captured our wedding day perfectly! The staff is so friendly and they make you feel so relaxed! In our home they filmed us getting ready and made sure to capture video of our beloved Pit bull - he stole the show! They even brought the drone that my husband was so excited about and flew it around us and over the golf course making our Teaser video (which is absolutely amazing) that much better! We cannot wait to get the whole video!! Thank you, ShoFilms for capturing our memories on our perfect day!
Paul and Casey with ShoFilms were AMAZING!! The entire process was a blast and we are beyond thrilled with our videos. You HAVE to book ShoFilms for your wedding!!
Shofilms is beyond extraordinary!!! Paul, the owner is the most down to earth guy you will ever meet, but what is more is that he is so talented. He has the eye for exceptional video making. He knows how to truly capture the events of the day with the true vibe and feeling of the couple, who they are, their wedding day and the theme of the event. I would highly recommend Shofilms, it is worth every penny!
We could not be happier with Shofilms. On your wedding day you want to capture every single moment while still feeling comfortable and natural- these guys nailed it! Jordan & Chris were absolutely amazing and didn’t miss one second! Their professionalism was evident and their great personalities made it so much fun! Our teaser was magical and we cannot wait to see the rest of the footage! Highly highly recommended!
We don't even have enough kind words to say about ShoFilms! They are so awesome to work with and truly so incredibly talented. My husband and I were a little bit skeptical at first because we felt like we might be camera shy or not know what to do or say but ShoFilms made it so easy and fun. They captured our day beautifully and it was SO us! We absolutely loved this experience and can't wait to see more videos! TOP NOTCH! ALL THE THUMBS UP FOR YOU GUYS!
Oh my goodness ShoFilms knocked our wedding video out of the PARK! Everything was documented so beautifully and artistically. I wanted "wow" factor and I defiantly got it!
I HIGHLY recommend a package that includes a next day teaser. It was SO fun to wake up the day after our wedding to such an awesome recap of our love story.
I am a creative by trade and a bit of a micromanager. I don't think I could hand the reigns over to anyone else BUT Paul and his team.
Shofilms were both professional and FUN on our wedding day and made us feel super comfortable.
We are SO in love with our wedding feature and we will cherish these memories forever.
Future brides, secure ShoFilms FAST, you won't regret it!
There are no words for Shofilms other than PERFECT. The team is professional but also casual enough that we never felt staged or uncomfortable. They befriended our bridal party and family and really felt like part of the party by the end of the night. Our videos are incredible and tell our love story- and wedding story- perfectly. I would highly recommend reserving Shofilms for your wedding, but do so quickly because they book up fast!
VERY disappointed in ShoFilms. I was so excited to use their slo mo video booth services for my upcoming wedding. I spoke to Paul on the phone and via email a few times, and he was supposed to send me a contract to sign. Well after a week of not hearing from him, I started to wonder what was going on. My fiancé and I called and emailed repeatedly to no avail. Our wedding is in less than a month and we were so looking forward to having this special feature at our wedding. Now we're scrambling to come up with something last minute. Extremely disappointing.
We loved having ShoFilms there for our special day. We did not receive our video back yet but we know their work is quality. They also let us a use a GoPro camera on our honeymoon!
Shofilms was AMAZING! there are not enough words in the English language to express how happy we were to work with them. They went above and beyond!!! my husband and I would highly recommend them!
My husband and I had such a great time working with Shofilms... Paul and his team are awesome. We were so comfortable filming our love story (before the wedding), and during the wedding you would barely even know they were there! We cannot wait to see our video... turn around time is 3 months, which is pretty amazing considering all the editing that they do. When we first started looking at videographers.... no other vendor could compare to the quality of videos produced by Shofilms. I suggest booking this vendor VERY EARLY as I have heard they are in high demand. Thanks again Shofilms! We love you guys and gals!
Why not make the most important day of your life into a movie?! ShoFilms is truly genius and they are beyond talented. They will make your wedding day last for years to come!
ShoFilms does not just provide videography. ShoFilms makes your wedding day into the movie you always dreamed it would be. Our cinematographers were attentive, flexible, and on point all day long to capture moments that would mean the most to us. They were professional and made everyone feel comfortable.
Our wedding day was a big day for our family and ShoFilms was a big part of it. I cannot imagine not having them there for our event. When our highlight clip was revealed we received phone calls, emails, and comments about the professional quality. The personal edits make watching it such an emotional and magical event.
If you are getting married, you need to get ShoFilms. You can get a regular videographer and watch your friends and family roll their eyes and wince in pain at the thought of watching your wedding video or you can get ShoFilms and have a real movie experience you will love and cherish for years to come.
I don't even know where to begin...ShoFilms is by far the most talented and professional team of videographers I have ever encountered (and I work in the wedding industry). My husband and I are blown away every time we watch our video. ShoFilms captured every moment of our wedding perfectly- down to every last detail, the music, people, dances- everything, perfect.
If you are lucky enough to have a wedding date that shoFilms has available, book them- they are worth every penny. It was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding. I get to relive my wedding day all over again every time I watch the video- and it couldn't be more close to the real thing. They are the best of the best and deserve to be filming movies in Hollywood!
Beautiful footage!
I'm not one for all caps, but these guys will make all your wildest dreams come true. I searched high and low (for about an hour) before coming across these guys on theknot, I watched a few of their highlight videos and immediately called my mom to beg her to hire them for our May 12 wedding. She reluctantly complied given that they seem a little pricey but let me tell you this was possibly the best investment we made in the wedding. These guys are artists. They capture things you don't even know are happening even if you are standing right there. You could hire these guys and not need a photographer they are truly that good. It was such a pleasure working with them. They make you feel so at ease and nothing like you are being video taped (not that I'm camera shy...) but my husband sort of rolled his eyes like "are we really doing an interview with these guys" and once we got thought a few shots he was so excited for the video and was totally into it. We did whatever they asked us to do because we could see how amazing this video was going to turn out and it really did. This is only based on the highlight video, we haven't gotten our blurays yet, but the wedding was may 12 and our highlight was posted and we got to watch it in the Hong Kong airport on our way to our honeymoon in Thailand on May 16. I can't say enough good things about these guys. Go to their website and see for yourself! Our highlight video is "Jamie + Josh". We loved every minute of our rehearsal dinner and wedding day and we get to relive it for years to come with this incredible video. Thank you so much Paul!
ShoFilms did a wonderful job filming our wedding. Not only were they friendly and professional, but they captured the spirit of our day perfectly. Their theatrical style helped to show our wedding day from our point of view, which is exactly how I wanted it to be remembered. I loved working with the ShoFilms team and how comfortable they made us feel. I am so glad that they were the ones filming our wedding day; I don't think we would have received such high quality work otherwise. Our favorite way to relive our wedding day magic is most definitely by watching our film. I don't think I can say "thank you" enough. Thank you ShoFilms crew!
