Candice came recommended from our photographers, and was absolutely WONDERFUL to work with (also, pro tip, your photographer and videographer being friends makes for a really fun shooting experience). We were waffling on whether we needed a videographer when everyone has cellphones and would be capturing video – don’t fall for the cheap option! Not only did Candice capture every moment we wanted with skill and artistry, she added touches and romantic flare we never would have thought of but turned out so beautifully. One of the most incredible touches was, in addition to the professionally edited film, she gave us the raw footage so we could add or re-watch pieces that didn’t make it into the final cut. 100% recommended, especially for queer couples who worried about finding vendors enthusiastic about capturing the passion and authenticity of your love story!
I can’t say enough incredible things about Candice and her work! I was fortunate to speak with her early on in our wedding planning process, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the interaction. On our first call, Candice took the time to really get to know me and what my now husband and I wanted captured for our special day. She was also extremely helpful with other parts of wedding planning. Candice gave me some humble advice, which was especially appreciated given our wedding was in Joshua Tree, CA, and we live in Florida. I was so comfortable with her from the start, and the same sentiments are true for our wedding day. Candice was the right amount of everything. Her work is incredible, and our video was everything we wanted. She captured all the best parts, and we have been reliving the day through the video since. Thank you, Candice! ♥️
Candice and CJ were great to work with! My husband and I wanted to capture our wedding like classic home video tapes. They offered great pricing and provided options for packages that included beautifully curated social media videos, but we opted for a raw footage-only package to fit our preferences and budget. Their communication was fast and efficient, making the entire process smooth and stress-free.
Candice was absolutely wonderful to work with, and getting to hang out with her was one of our favorite parts of our wedding day! Not only is she an incredible artist with tons of experience and a real dedication to her craft, but she's just an all around delightful person who approaches everything she does with goodness and care.
From the very beginning, she was an excellent communicator who was very professional yet genuinely friendly and warm. I immediately felt so at ease with her, like I was making a new friend. I already knew from her portfolio that her work was beautiful - but after our first conversation, I knew that we'd be in safe hands and that we'd have a ton of fun together along the way!
On the day of our wedding, she had such a great energy and both cheered us on and provided a calming presence that made us feel safe and happy to be our authentic selves. She was always looking out for us, and even helped me when my makeup got a little smudged. She also had great chemistry with our photographer and wedding coordinator, which helped make the day run so smoothly. We felt so comfortable and happy hanging out with her, and Candice made an already unforgettable day even better!
The final videos she gave us were also everything we hoped for and more. We got a mix of digital and super8 film, and Candice not only blended them beautifully, but also gave us a super8-only teaser too, and let my partner and I take footage of each other on the day of our wedding! She even perfectly matched moments of our day with things we said in our vows. :') We laughed and happy cried many times watching our films, and we'll be cherishing them for the rest of our lives.
We'd do it all again with her in a heartbeat, and we'd recommend her to literally everyone we know! Thank you so much again for everything Candice!
We hired Candice for our Joshua Tree micro wedding back in April 2024. She is such a bundle of sunshine and joy! She also had such good chemistry with our photographers Jenn & Pawel- it made our wedding day feel totally care-free and fun. Even though my husband and I are both camera shy, we felt comfortable the entire time. To top it off, we ended up with the most amazing reel of our special day that still makes me tear up when I watch it <3 She captured so many real, authentic, candid moments that we get to cherish for years to come thanks to her artistic eye.
If you want a videographer who communicates timely, genuinely, and who pours extra love and care into her work, I'd highly recommend choosing Candice as your videographer. I promise you won't regret it!
Candice was the first vendor that we booked and we are so glad we did! Our wedding day was so much fun and she was just spectacular and was so easy to work with. Our wedding video is amazing and even better than we could have hoped for. Highly recommend!! She was so great with us throughout the day and captured everything perfectly. Candice kept us smiling and laughing too, which was an added plus. Overall fantastic experience!!
Candice was the first vendor we contacted when our daughter got engaged. She had done the video for a friend of ours and we loved her work. Candice did not disappoint. She was professional and got along so well with our photographers and wedding planner. She was available any time we had a questions. She captured our daughter's wedding perfectly and her work is impeccable. We could not be happier.
Candice is an extremely talented videographer and we are delighted to be able to recommend her to others. We hired her for the 4-7 minute film package for our wedding in Los Angeles and ended up upgrading to the 12-15 minute film after the event, and are so glad we did. We loved how easy and comfortable it was to work with her and cherish the film she made for us. She is super communicative, supportive, fun, funny, responsible, and low-stress. We had researched a lot of Los-Angeles-based videographers, and learned it was difficult to find a non-generic, but also non-gimmicky wedding videographer—but then we found Candice and knew right away that she and her work are special. Her filming and editing captured the dreamy feeling of our wedding day in both a genuine and fun way. Candice shoots and edits in a natural style that is personalized to the couple and captures the ethereal beauty of the light and warm energy of the day. She was also very easy to work with after the event, and her first cut was a home run! work in her portfolio is really cool, too, so don’t look any further and sign up with her company Spin The Dial!
Candice caught our day perfectly! She captured the raw, candid moments, and made it flow beautifully into the video of our dreams! She was able to get beautiful drone footage of our venue as well!
Candice and CJ were incredible in documenting our wedding. We met with Candice before and gave her all of our needs/wants and she did a wonderful job translating that into a fantastic video. CJ was a delight on our wedding day, making sure to capture all the important moments without it feeling like we were on a reality show. We loved the trailer, super8 film, and mini-movie that we received. The entire video process was seamless and everything we could have ever wanted!
Candice was amazing as our wedding videographer! She was incredibly easy to work with, super chill, and really made us feel at ease during the wedding day. The highlight film she created captured all the moments we had hoped for, and seamlessly intertwined the 16mm footage. She had great energy throughout and would definitely recommend her!
If you’re looking for a fantastic videographer with great vibes look no further! We are beyond thrilled with our wedding film we received. Candice is organized and a joy to work with the day of the wedding! She is super personable and you can clearly tell how much she cares for her couples. We added 16mm film to our package and would 100% recommend it! We honestly cannot stop watching our video :)
Candice documented our day perfectly and the end product of our wedding film was beyond what we could have hoped for! For starters, she is professional: Timely, courteous, experienced, and talented. On top of that, she is compassionate, kind, a relaxing presence to be around, and so much fun. Wedding Photos and Video can feel like a big production and such a big focus of the day, but Candice did her work in a way that aligned with how our day was going, and she did this unobtrusively and candidly. I am so grateful to have had a videographer that is also LGBTQ+ identifying, as my wife and I felt more comfortable letting her in on one of the most emotionally intimate days of our lives. The film itself was gorgeous! We chose to have a mix of digital and film for our video and I am so glad we did. The colors are true to life and warm, the music was nice and blended in well, and the way it was edited to include parts of our vows and speeches was so wonderful. Our package also included raw footage, and I am looking forward to combing through that to see more of cocktail hour and the full vows and speeches. We can't wait to share our film with friends and family! Hiring Candice was one of the best decisions we made in our wedding planning.
Where do I even begin but to say that I absolutely LOVE Candice!! I think we would be friends if we met in different circumstances, so this goes to show she treats her clients with the upmost respect, professionalism, and understanding.
Candice was the only vendor of mine who I met on social media, more specifically through a wedding Facebook group. They hosted an event to meet vendors on Zoom, and I was immediately drawn to her positive energy and impressive college education in photography and film. When I went to her website, I fell in love with her natural style. In short, she doesn't follow the stereotypical wedding video script, but makes your day into a literal work of art.
Candice was actually the only videographer we interviewed, and we hired her as we fell in love with her on the spot. She was always so patient with questions, very responsive to emails, and flexible when it came to upgrading packages and making edits.
Candice previously told me that she acts as a ghost on the wedding day, and this could not be more true. I sincerely didn't notice her and was impressed with how much footage she had considering she was a team one. She had so many different angles captured along with amazing lighting without the bright lights in your face. I admire her for going through 8 hours of footage. That takes a lot of patience!
If I'm being honest, I was skeptical about hiring a videographer in the first place as I was cognizant of money, but I knew I would be missing out on a huge opportunity if I did not hire Candice. Many people I have spoken to think photography is a must and video is optional, but Candice's work is absolutely essential.
It's vendors like Spin the Dial Productions that make your day that much more comfortable and special. Make sure to hire a videographer for your wedding, and without a doubt, it MUST be Candice! :)
A month before our wedding we had to hire new vendors due to COVID restrictions/requirements in Los Angeles. We hired Candice at that time, which was an extremely stressful time for us, replanning part of our wedding with less than 30 days and for me, a videographer was a must. Candice was so easy to work with, from our first call to day of! She has so much energy, great vision, and has an old Kodak she can shot with too!!! Candice shot our wedding by herself, 145 guests, two different cameras, and the video is an absolute dream. The best part is we also received all of our raw footage, which was not offered by other vendors. Thank you Candice for your flexibility, cheerful personality your brought day of, and creating a video we will watch for a lifetime. You also made us feel very comfortable as we were two Brides, thank you!
Candice is amazing and we couldn't have asked for anyone better to film our wedding. We met pre-COVID and immediately were drawn in by her cheerful personality and great vision. When COVID hit and we realized we needed to reschedule, Candice was incredibly understanding.
When the big day came, 2 years later, Candice was as excited for us and to see us as we remembered from our first meeting. She kept us loose and made her work fun for all involved. We are happy to call her a friend, not just our videographer!
Seeing the final result brought happy tears to our eyes because she captured everything so perfect that we could relive that day.
Candice, you are awesome and keep doing what you do!
Candice worked patiently with me to create an atypical wedding video for our tiny mountain elopement. She was so warm, kind, and easy to communicate with — a great thought partner and total pro at this process. Thank you Candice!
There aren't enough stars my husband and I could give Candice! Her documentary-style videography was just what we were looking for. We had to postpone our July 2020 wedding due to COVID, and Candice could not have been more accommodating, responsive, or understanding. When our big day finally came a year later, Candice was an all-star! Especially enjoyed our spontaneous post-ceremony video shoot running around the venue parking lot during golden hour. And don't get me started on the final video--I'll start crying! So beautiful, tender, funny, and just perfect.
We were originally hesitant to hire a videographer for our wedding, but we are thrilled we did. The video Candice sent us is absolutely stunning. We have already watched it several times (even though the wedding was only a few months ago), and our parents won't stop sharing the video with people. We highly recommend Spin the Dial.
We absolutely love Candice and our final product!! She was so patient in the beginning with fielding all of our questions and uncertainties about videography. We were sold on her unique real film specialty.
Most importantly, she has the sweetest presence and was the best hype woman on the day of the wedding. I had a lot of apprehensions about seeing myself on video but I am so glad I trusted her and did not forego this aspect of the day. She eloquently captured our day in the true essence of our relationship.
We are so grateful to call her a friend now and have this special documentation to share with our family and future generations.
Candice is AMAZING. She captured our day so beautifully and we love our film that she edited together. She has such a fun and unique style to the way she shoots and edits, and we were so lucky to have her as a vendor. She was so great at shooting everything while remaining in the background to get those great candid moments. The wedding film is so amazing and it's nice to be able to relive the day and see everyone having such an amazing time. Candice is a true professional and so friendly and easy to be around. You should definitely have her on your wedding team!!
Spin the dial is amazing!
Candice made us feel so comfortable, she gave us directions while we were still able to be ourselves. Everything was captured so naturally and candid, and her rates are very reasonable. We truly appreciate the time and effort she put into our special day and film!
Do yourself a favor and hire Spin The Dial ASAP!!! Planning a wedding during this pandemic was interesting, to say the least. We had to change plans/venues multiple times and ultimately downsize our guest list to just family. But from the beginning we knew that our video would be the most important part for us!
Candice was absolutely amazing to work with.. I felt so comfortable with her from our first phone call. Not to mention, she was incredibly flexible when crazy last minute changes happened! She kept us laughing the whole day and was able to really capture us in a such an easygoing and natural way.
You can tell how much time and effort she puts into her work.. our video turned out AMAZING! I’ve watched it about a million times and our families rave about it. (Making people cry left and right lol!) Ohhh and lastly, i have to mention that i especially love how she can mix in the Retro 16mm kodak film!!! It really gives it such a unique feel.
Seriously, 5 stars is not enough :)
I hired Spin The Dial to re-edit my already filmed wedding video (using the raw footage).
Last year I got married in November. Long story short, I quickly chose my videographer without doing proper research (not recommended).
About a month after our wedding I received our wedding video and I cried. It was nothing that I wanted. I don't want to go into why this video was not good, but frankly I realized that I was not going to get a product I'd be proud of even if I had the videographer re-edit the video.
I was a member of a Facebook page for brides and vendors, and I saw Spin The Dial Films (Candice) post on there that she re-edits videos. I took a look at her films and they were BEAUTIFUL!
After going back and forth via email, about things I didn't like in my video, I quickly had total faith in Candice that she would be able to re-edit this to at least show a film that captured my wedding that I thoroughly loved.
I received my video about a month after paying her the deposit, and I cried (this time out of extreme joy). Candice wasn't even at my wedding, and yet she captured the emotions, the fun, and all the little nuonces that I remember from that day back in November 2019.
I can't even imagine what a video would have looked like, had she filmed the wedding herself, and I don't care at this point. She made my dream come true.
If you are an unhappy bride with your wedding video, or if you are looking for a videographer, this company and Candice Nachman go above and beyond!!
Candice is remarkable. She really heard me when I described what I hoped for in a wedding videos. I am an avid wedding video video viewer and I spent hours watching videos before landing on a videographer. Our video is truly perfect. It not only captures everything we hoped, but it captured our vibe and the energy. We will cherish it forever and are SO happy to have it. Candice was so amazing to work with - kind, sweet, patient and helpful. I really cant tell you how happy we are that we hired her and have this incredible momento. Plus, our family members also LOVED it - we are so happy that we will get to watch this over and over again for the rest of our life.
Candice is simply amazing!!!! She is so sweet and soooooo talented! She made us the most beautiful wedding film that makes us feel like we’re reliving our wedding day every time we watch it. I’ve probably watched it 1,000 times! I highly recommend her as your wedding videographer - she will not disappoint!
Great videographer! They captured all of the best moments of our wedding day and the video is just amazing! We’ve shared it with our guests and everyone just loves it. Highly recommend this service—they are easy to communicate with, affordable, and do great work!
We simply can't recommend Candice enough. We originally didn't want a videographer at our wedding, but after seeing Candice's work we changed our minds - and I'm so glad we did! We both started crying when we watched our full wedding video. She not only perfectly captured the big moments from our wedding day, but she captured so many special, small moments that really add a level of intimacy to the wedding video and show who we are as a couple. Multiple people were shocked to hear that we had a videographer at the wedding, which is the biggest testament to Candice's ability to stay under the radar and not distract from the day's events. Thank you so much, Candice!
Candice and Spin the Dial were a dream to work with! From the very first phone call, to the day of the wedding, to the finished delivered product, we were impressed the whole way through. Candice was a great communicator and worked perfectly with our other vendors the day of the wedding. During the ceremony and reception, she managed to blend into the crowd as to not interfere with any proceedings but still captured the most amazing footage. Watching our wedding video allowed us to re-live the big day and appreciate special moments all over again, many of which we didn't have enough time to truly take in during the wedding itself. It was also very impressive how she blended our vows and speeches perfectly into footage she shot during the day. We loved our finished video and are so happy we chose Spin the Dial as our wedding videographer. :)
We made the last minute decision to hire a videographer, and we are SO thrilled that that videographer was Candice! She captured our day exactly how we'd hoped, and turned around our video incredibly fast. She was so sweet and warm on the day, and totally got us. My husband was worried about having a videographer because he thought it might make him act differently/be nervous, but honestly, we barely noticed her--she is GREAT at what she does. I'm so grateful we ended up hiring Candice!!!
We really enjoyed working with Candice and have no regrets at all in hiring her for our wedding. She is very responsive and receptive to all our comments and concerns. On the day of our wedding, she was really pleasant and did not have an overbearing presence- many of our guests said they didn't even notice her! In the end we were very pleased with the final product of our wedding film. We had seen many wedding videos by other videographers and they more or less follow the same template. Candice has a really creative style on her own, but I felt like she tried her best to capture the style and format we wanted as well. Thank you Candice!
Candice, and her husband Robert, were such a pleasure to work with. We are OBSESSED with our video. It feels original, raw, and authentic. Candice is so sweet, such good energy to have around you on your wedding day, responsive, and dependable. Superstar! Could not recommend more!
Candice was amazing and took engagement photos of my fiance and I. She is incredibly down to Earth and easy going that it made taking these photos feel so natural. The pictures came out fantastic and I couldn't be happier. It was such a special day of running around on the beach, playing pool and enjoying a beer. If you're in need of an amazing photographer, Candice is definitely your girl!
Candice from Spin the Dial Films was amazing to work with. Another couple got married a few months before us, and Candice came highly recommended. Since our initial call, we could already tell that she was someone we wanted to work with. She was very detail oriented, and made us at ease during the stressful planning process. During the call, she not only walked us through details on her end, but also questions we might consider. She also went above and beyond and sent us some recommended vendors and photographers she thought might be suitable for us. Candice was easy to communicate with during our whole planning process.
On the day of our wedding, we finally got to meet Candice in person for the first time. Candice had a vibe that just brightens everything around her. She also had a way to make us feel very comfortable in front of the lens (we are very awkward camera people). We could not have asked for a better videographer.
We just got our video back, and it was way ahead of schedule. The video was edited perfectly. It captured the essence of our wedding perfectly. We loved Spin the Dial Films and will recommend them to everyone!
Candice did an amazing job with our wedding video! She perfectly captured and pieced together a film that caught every bit of our special day. She arrived and started rolling right away, while making us feel completely comfortable and never made us feel pressured while we were being filmed. She was lovely to work it and we are very happy we chose her to be part of our day. We will always have this wonderful video to look back on to remember how we were surrounded by all of the love from our friends and family on our wedding day! We absolutely recommend her!
We searched far and wide for a videographer for our wedding. It came to a point, where referrals and videos we found online all started to look the same. My husband and I were looking for a videographer that would be able to capture our personality and translate it into a video that we will remember forever and Spin the Dial did just that! All the videos in her portfolio are unique and true to the couples personality. It is not based on a generic template that a lot of videographers use these days.
We immediately hit it off with Candice (the owner) when we first had our Skype consultation. She was the sweetest and it felt like we had known her forever! She also became our friend shortly after that. She was super helpful, responsive and she gave us creative ideas and suggestions on all of her asks. We had so much crazy ideas in the beginning such as making an engagement video, video montage and she patiently stood by us with all our change of plans.
When it came to our wedding day, we didn’t even know that Candice and Ariel were filming our wedding! A lot of the shots that they had were taken from a distance, which made our wedding video very authentic. What we even loved the most is that Candice was able to translate our personality into film and watching it makes us relive our wedding day. They even got a shot of our cat in our wedding film, which we loved and didn't expect. All the emotions that we felt that day were summoned by that film! Watching our film makes us feel like we were transported back to that day and time. It is just truly magical!
Also, not to mention that Ariel even helped us out with transporting our alcohol to our wedding venue and he didn’t have to do that! Candice also referred us to our also amazing photographer! Overall, I highly recommend Spin the Dial. They exceeded our expectations and we cannot wait to work with them again in the future!!!
Initially, I was hesitant to get a wedding video and I was worried that a videographer might be intrusive. But my first conversation with Candice put me at ease. She has a wonderful, positive attitude, that eliminated all my initial trepidation. Candice and her team made the videography process easy and I walked away from the weekend so happy that I had decided to get a video!
Now that my husband and I have seen the footage, we could not be more excited to recommend Spin the Dial to anyone looking for an awesome videographer.
Thank you Candice and Spin the Dial for contributing your time and awesome energy to our weekend.
Spin the Dial was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. Candice was warm and easy going throughout the entire process and set everything up to be stress-free for our big day. Her editing and creation of our final video was terrific and we are very pleased with how everything turned out. Could not recommend more highly!
Early in our wedding planning my husband and I were given the advice to get a videographer to capture our wedding day and have it come to life in a way that photos can’t. We are so thankful that we took that advice and that we found Candice and Spin the Dial Productions!
From initial meeting with Candice to final product she clearly demonstrated her high level of professionalism and artistic abilities. She was easy to work with and was a clear communicator and definitely listened to what we wanted as our final product. The night that we got our final video I had to stop myself from continuously watching it – Candice did a great job of truly capturing our wedding day and she understood and embodied the vibe we were going for! We look forward to many years of watching our wedding video and reliving a beautiful night that Candice so artistically captured. We would recommend anyone looking for a videographer to look into Candice and Spin the Dial – you guys are truly the best!
Candice and Robert Nachman were by FAR one of our favorite vendors on our wedding day - from their quiet presence to their impeccable attention to detail, they really made the best day our lives feel natural, cherished, and personal, which is what we really appreciated so much. Robert was super accessible months before the wedding, readily available via email, video chat, or even a quick meet over coffee. Candice made us feel so comfortable and you could tell that she was really passionate about the work she was doing that day. We highly recommend them. We can't wait to see our video!
Are you looking for true artistry with a super incredible director with an amazingly friendly personality? You've found her! Candice rocks in so many ways. You cannot go wrong hiring her to document your most special moments in your life. She's a gem and a truly wonderful at her craft.
Searching for a videographer is so important- I learned that quickly in helping friends plan their weddings and then planning my own. When people say they wished they would have gotten a videographer, its SO TRUE and I am so glad I did. It should be a top priority to every bride/groom.
Candice was easily the best vendor I worked with. HANDS DOWN. When I originally contacted her, we weren't sure if we were going to be able to work together due to scheduling conflicts. She made it work and she made me feel completely comfortable in every way. Not just through emails, not just through site messages but was fast to FaceTime, call, text and even meet in person. Like I mentioned before, planning a wedding can be crazy but the day of is even crazier. I only remembered small snippets of time, I was soooo overwhelmed. Candice and Ariel, truly got who we were and made an incredible video for us. I cried just because it changed my perspective of the whole experience. My poor Mom actually broke her ankle minutes before I walked down the aisle. Thanks to Candice and Ariel- she can actually look back and see what she literally couldn't the day of- her first born getting hitched. Candice and Ariel, I can't thank you enough, you reminded me that even though the day was crazy, when sh!t can really hit the fan, I will forever be grateful and in love with my wedding day because of you guys. You also gave us the best pricing by a long shot. No joke, the best price I got from any vendor. The fact that you offer final balance payment due upon receiving your final video is not only logical, it's f-ing RAD! I 100% will recommend and tell everyone I can about Spin the Dial!
XOXOXOXOXOXOXX Love you guys!
Of all the woulda coulda shouldas that we all reflect upon in the post mortem of that glorious blur of our wedding, do NOT -I repeat- do NOT let one of those regrets be that you didn't spring for the videographer that all your friends told you was a must. Then, once you've made the right choice, choose Spin the Dial! Candice and her crew work tirelessly and efficiently to create your perfect story. With film school training, boundless energy and sharp wit at their disposal, these folks have your back in every way possible. Low maintenance? Check. Great rates? Check. Don't pay in full until you get the cut of the video to your exact specifications with the opportunity to request music choices and give notes on first drafts? Check!
We loved working with Spin the Dial so much and watch our wedding video basically on repeat. Don't risk videographer FOMO! Hire Spin the Dial today!
Candice of Spin the Dial was so great to work with! From our very first conversation even before booking her, I felt like I was speaking with a friend. She even took us out for coffee to meet in person before the big day, so we had a chance to get to know each other and feel comfortable with one another. On our wedding day, Candice blended into our wedding seamlessly and she was able to get some amazing video footage of the event! We love the highlights film she produced - she captured all the most important parts of the evening and melded it all together so beautifully. Her video is one of our favorite keepsakes from the day - such a great way to revisit all the details and emotions of the special moments. Candice also charges fair prices for what you get! Can't go wrong :)
It was a pleasure working with Robert and Candice. They did an incredible job of capturing the overall feel of our wedding with just the right amount of subtle and visceral shots. My husband and I were very happy with the collaboration process and the reliability from the lovely couple. Thanks again!
JD and Eric Wedding - Review Part 2
After the dust settled, Robert and Candice met with us again, and checked in with us and asked us questions to ascertain what elements that they captured for us were the most important so they could prioritize and organize our project. Then, over the next few weeks they sent us rough cuts to get our feedback. My husband and I met at a film festival and both come from the entertainment industry, so we were probably more difficult and persnickety than their other clients. Candice and Robert treated us with continued kindness and professionalism. After our requests for edits, we received an amazing final product that reflected the tone and tenor of our wedding. It encapsulated the love and joy of our day. Our family and wedding party have fallen in love with Candice and Robert through this video as well. The praise we have received for it has really shown us that a wedding video can be more than just a simple document of an important day in a family’s life. I was talking with my little sister tonight and she was telling me how she has shown the video to about a dozen of her friends and coworkers, and each of them finished watching in tears telling her how gorgeous it was. Some of the comments we have repeatedly received are about how artistic the specific shots are, the meticulous attention to detail, the delicate pacing, the balance of intimate shots during the ceremony and larger group shots of our revelers, the narrative structure masterfully woven through the video, and the skillful edits which managed to separate the wheat from the chaff. We couldn’t agree more with these accolades for their work.
We cannot recommend and thank Spin the Dial enough! We tell everyone about our wedding day and how special it was for us, and now we have a way to prove to them how extraordinary it really was. If it sounds like we are gushing, it is because we are.
Do yourself a favor… if you want to remember your special day, you would be remiss in choosing anyone else.
JD and Eric Wedding - Review Part 1
When Aristotle wrote, “pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work,” there was no way for him to know the work of Candice, Rob, and Spin the Dial Productions, but the joy they have in their profession radiates from our perfect wedding video.
Two of our friends got married a year before and said that of all of the investments they made for their wedding, the best one was having a video of their day that truly captured the magic they remembered of their occasion. They showed us their wedding film and we were blown away. Usually wedding films (at least the ones we’ve seen) are poorly shot, cheesy, and generic. Theirs was well framed and artistic, charming and genuine, and perfectly representative of the couple. So of course, we chose the videographers who produced their video: Spin the Dial.
The process began when we met up with Robert well ahead of our wedding to get to know each other. We wanted to make sure that he and Spin the Dial was the right match for us. Robert also expressed that he wanted to get to know us and what we were looking for to get a better idea of how they could achieve the goal we desired. It was a pleasant experience and by the end of our meeting it was clear that he would care for our wedding like a friend.
On the day of our wedding, we briefly saw Robert and showed him around the location. He then took time to wander around the venue and familiarize himself with the lay of the land. Later, we realized that he was basically choreographing his movements for the day so he could be where he needed to be when he needed to be there. Photographers and videographers can be distracting at an important event, taking attention away from the special moments they are attempting to capture. In quantum physics, the Observer Effect describes how the act of even looking at something changes it and influences the outcome. If this theory is true, then somehow Robert existed in a parallel universe, inexplicably filming our event invisibly, even though the footage shows that he was front and center the entire time. I have no clue how he achieved this. Not once did we think about the logistics of the filming during our wedding, we were confident that it was being taken care of in the competent hands of Robert. We were not wrong.
We were looking for a videographer who 1) had a great eye and made beautiful, authentic, non-cheesy or sappy videos, 2) was willing to really listen to us and respond to our needs, 3) would not take away from our presence and enjoyment of our own wedding. Candice was all three and then some! She was so inconspicuous that I actually forgot she was there, and yet she still somehow managed to capture beautiful and intimate moments. She was extremely professional and responsive, and her own enjoyment of our celebration translated into the video. We are so thankful that we will be able to relive this moment for years to come! Thank you Candice!
Candice of Spin the Dial did an absolutely beautiful job on our wedding video. She perfectly captured the essence and feeling of the night. It brought tears to our eyes to get to watch and re-watch one of the most fun nights of our lives and to see beautiful shots of all of our friends and family enjoying it with us. Candice is also a pleasure to work with - she is easy going and worked really well with our photographer the day of. She kept us in the loop of the editing process and was happy to make the edits we requested. All in all a great experience working with Spin the Dial! Thank you!!
I'm so happy we decided to get a videographer!!! It was so great to have both people there, they captured so much of our wedding that photos can't show! Candice was so helpful on the day and made everything super easy. We were so happy with the final product! I cry every time I watch the video, they did such an amazing job with capturing everything!
Thank you!!!
