Ryan was such a delight to work with! We were looking for a documentary-style photographer, and his style fit exactly what we wanted. The resulting photos were great, and are keeps...
akes we will cherish for years to come.
One of the things our guests consistently remarked on was how much of a good hang Ryan was. He effortlessly worked the room and made everyone feel comfortable, while still getting great coverage of the event. I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer for their wedding.
Ryan and the team at Silver Seas did an impeccable job with our wedding photos. We bundled engagement photography, wedding photography, and cinematography. Ryan scheduled a helpful...
phone call prior to our engagement photo shoot to get to know a bit more about each other and his process. It was insightful and gave us confidence that we had made an excellent decision as we were hoping for someone that could match our dark taste. When we met up to do the shoot, we clicked instantly and he truly understood the esthetic we wanted to achieve. The engagement photos came out perfect. Next was the wedding shoot. His team came to the house that we got ready at to get some shots of the process before the wedding itself. Everyone on his team was excellent to work with and had good communication. Preparing for an ordeal such as getting married comes with a lot of stresses, of course, but neither my wife nor myself felt that the Silver Seas team added to that. They got the job done and allowed us to have freedom on the big day. I did not feel like they were in the way or taking focus off of the memories we were creating. The actual wedding and reception was fantastic. They accomplished every type of photo we wanted and every group shot we had hoped for. It was a beautiful day that we are beyond grateful to have such wonderful photographs of as well as the film of the ceremony and several other pieces from the day. We chose to order a lovely leather bound book to commemorate the occasion. Of course, they did a fantastic job on that as well. Thank you, Ryan and thank you to the whole team at Silver Seas (photographers, videographers, and editors).
Wow, working with Silver Seas was wonderful! Ryan our photographer and Elijah our videographer were both so professional and easy to work with. Communication was flawless and their...
energy was perfect for my wedding day. Calm, relaxed, efficient, reliable, and supportive. I absolutely recommend them 10/10!
We worked with Ryan and team for not one but two of our weddings - our covid wedding in California in 2021, and our big wedding in Texas in 2022. Ryan and his team are friendly, pr...
ofessional, and we were so impressed with how they were able to cover a 110 person with just two people doing both video and photo.
We liked them so much we decided it was both economically and creatively the right choice to fly them down from California for our Texas wedding.
Post-wedding, they have been pretty responsive in doing a few minor edits to our photo and video, but honestly, not too much had to change. We also made a mistake in forgetting them to mic one section of our wedding, and they were able to pull something together using the other footage they took.
Would highly, highly recommend them!
From start to finish, Ryan and his crew made us feel like we were hanging out with friends, who just happened to be amazingly talented photographers and videographers. We did both ...
our engagement shoot and wedding with them and felt so at ease being in front of the camera. They are true pros at capturing moments and memories as opposed to the same posed photos that many other photographers do. Seriously, look no further if you want a team who genuinely cares, asks all the right questions and delivers phenomenal work. Thank you again Ryan and team!
Ryan and team at Silver Seas were awesome. So many people commented saying "these guys were everywhere" and that was the case. They captured all of the wonderful moments of our wed...
ding and working with Ryan was a pleasure!
I am beyond impressed with the work Ryan and his team did for us for our Prenuptial Wedding photos & videos + Wedding photos & videos + Documentary! They did so much for us and ch...
arged us with such a reasonable price! The best thing about Silverseas is their professionalism and their desire to achieve perfection. Ryan worked with us when we said we wanted to have our prenuptial shoot in THREE different places. He worked longer hours just to get all the shots needed. His team stayed longer during our wedding day (because we ran into some time management issues) to ensure that they captured all the important parts of our wedding. To top it all of, he made the most amazing prenuptial and wedding videos, which made everyone who watched it tear up. In fact, the prenuptial shoot he took of us got featured in popular Instagram pages! We got recognized because of their work and they deserve all the praises! If you’re looking for perfection and professionalism, this is the wedding videographer and photographer for you!
Words cannot begin to describe how amazing Silver Seas Cinema is. I looked at several other wedding photographers/videogaphers in the Bay area and am SO glad that I went with them....
These guys have this magical ability to capture the love in a relationship and the uniqueness of a wedding and make it something you can relive every time you watch footage and flip through photos of your wedding. Each photo is framable; amazing quality, and just perfectly edited.
I truly loved my wedding day and feel like we took every advantage of the beautiful location and sunset thanks to Ryan and his team. Such nice people to work with! (this is the feedback I got from several of my guests as well.) It blows my mind how they got these unique shots and videos without us even noticing. HIGHLY recommend getting the video and photo package, you will not have any regrets.
We had an incredible experience with Ryan and his crew. The pictures were perfect and so much more than we were expecting. We absolutely loved the video! Everyone who saw the video...
was blown away and commented on how amazing our videographer was. We were very impressed with the entire process from the initial contact to receiving the pictures. I would highly recommend Silver Seas.
For those not wanting to read this entire thing: LOOK NO FURTHER, YOU WANT SILVER SEAS TO BE YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER. And now here I go. Your wedding day will come and go in a FLASH. You...
spend months and even years planning and setting things to go the way you want it to but once the day comes, it'll be over before you know it. You won't notice the flowers you picked out. You won't remember what the dessert table looked like, you won't remember anything. That's where Silver Seas comes in and captures it all for you. They capture your most important and well prepared day in the utmost beautiful way possible, just as you envisioned but better. Like how is that even possible? No freaking clue, they're like Houdini when it comes to this. There were a few little things that did not go as planned on my day. The dessert table was not set as I had planned it to be, decorations were missing, the centerpieces on the table were placed improperly, etc, etc. But none of it matters. Silver Seas will somehow make your day the most beautiful day EVER. I had an 8 piece band, a trailer photo booth, a Korean ceremony, and more but the only thing my guests complimented us on and noticed was the Silver Seas team. They were going beyond and using their nerd-skills (hehe) to capture every shot in the best light, perfect angel, etc. and everyone witnessed it. Now THAT'S the type of service you are paying for. We picked the Photo & Cinema package. Worth every penny and in fact, I feel like I'm ripping them off. The quality of service you get is worth so much more. I had photographers asking for 30-50% more of what they're charging and did way less. Listen, I am the most negative person you'll ever meet. Yes I am that type of person that will find the grey is everything and find a reason to complain. But I have absolutely ZERO complaints here. You won't regret it and you'll thank yourself for the best decision by choosing Silver Seas to be the ones who captures it all for you. Wish I can share my photos here to show you what I mean. Go on Silver Seas IG and look us up, Annie & Kyle!
Ryan and his team were the best we could have asked for. First of all, our engagement photos turned out beautifully, fully taking in the hillside backdrop we used. His knowledge an...
d use of dramatic lighting and lenses made for some striking photos that don't look as cookie cutter as others I have seen, while still also providing us the traditional beautiful portraits. He was also really easy to work with, coaching my self-proclaimed unphotogenic now-husband through some exercises to get some really genuine smiles and poses from him. The day of the wedding he and his team were super prompt, stuck to a time schedule and kept us moving and grooving to get the shots we had requested. His videographers were always moving and taking shots, and having just received our Instagram video of the wedding my jaw is on the floor - it is utter perfection and even my husband goes, "I'd see that movie." I honestly cannot wait for another opportunity to work with Ryan and his team - hopefully he does family photos! ;)
Ryan of Silver Seas was amazing to work with. He made us feel super comfortable and kept our photo session really fun even though we were a little nervous at first that we wouldn't...
be good at posing. I truly can't say enough good things about Ryan and the entire experience that he created. When we received our photos, we were blown away! He was able to get natural expressions that fit our vision perfectly! The art and attention to detail that he puts into his work is extremely apparent. I cannot recommend Silver Seas enough!
We absolutely love our wedding photos and film. Ryan and Terry noticed the things that mattered to us and really captured the feeling of the day. Their work has a ton of depth and ...
creativity, and I feel lucky to have such beautiful memories to look back on. I was super appreciative of how easy/fun they are to be around, while also clearly on top of making sure we got gorgeous shots, which put me at ease and able to focus on enjoying the day. We're so happy with our experience with them and how everything turned out. Thank you guys so much!
Thanks to Silver Seas for our amazing wedding photos and video!!! The outcome is incredibly beautiful that I can hardly believe that it’s something that happened to me. Our highlig...
ht video took my breath away and made me cry! This not only surpassed our expectations, but also our family and friends were impressed that they said that this was the most beautiful wedding video they have ever seen. Ryan was super easy to work with, and even though we have no experience in front of the camera he helped us to feel comfortable and relaxed, and the result was truly amazing!
My husband and I are so happy that we chose Silver Seas to capture our wedding day, and couldn’t give a higher recommendation.
