Steady State Studios

If you are looking for a wedding videographer for your wedding, I 100% highly recommend Steady State Studios! They were phenomenal. Specifically, I worked with Jason and Kevin who were awesome! They covered every special moment of my wedding. You won't regret your decision :)

Steady state covered the photography and videography for my wedding and they were phenomenal! They arrived on time and we’re very flexible to all the wedding events as they took place. They covered all the vital moments of our wedding and the final results were beyond our expectation. I would 100% recommend them

I stumbled upon Steady State Studios a year before my wedding among hundreds of other videographers in the Portland metro area. Their work was beautiful and I was instantly drawn in from their drone work. I emailed Jason, the owner thinking it would be a long shot they were available, but to my surprise they were! I coordinated with Jason via phone and email mostly and had such a terrific experience. Jason not only listened to my wants, but helped me figure out a way to work their services within my budget. We decided on a 6 hour day with one camera man, and signed the contract. Let me say, I am over the moon with how everything turned out. Our wedding day came and Steady State Studios arrived early to set up and take b-roll footage of the scene. The camera man was so friendly and kind and made all of my guests feel like he was someone from our family! He had great ideas on shots to take, and was so great making sure he was in 14 places at once! A couple months later and we got our videos back, it was worth every single penny. We opted to wait out the contract time for return, but you can purchase expedited editing! I was so excited to see Jason's email that I left the gym in the middle of my workout with my husband to watch the highlight video in my car! Steady State BLEW my expectations out of the water!! I will cherish my highlight video and live events footage for the rest of my life. I can't wait to show the whole family and our future children one day. The editor did a phenomenal job parsing in sound bites from our vows and speeches, with shots of us, the ceremony, the guests.... AH ITS PERFECT! Seriously, this is the BEST videographer you could hire! They are flexible, affordable, and phenomenal at what they do. Thank you Steady State for capturing our day, we do not have enough words to describe how happy and blown away we are at the result <3

From the moment we booked Steady State, it was all so easy. Communication leading up the wedding was clear and straightforward, and Jason was such a breeze to work with on the day of. During our First Look, we chatted a bit while waiting for the ski lift, and we got a sense that he is very easygoing and professional. For the remainder of the wedding, he blended seamlessly into the flow of the day, and I never once felt like there was a video camera in my face. When we got the video, the end results were spectacular, and we definitely cried!!! He included all the most special moments in the highlights reel, and the music and voiceovers were done beautifully. I can't believe I almost didn't think to book a videographer at all - in the end, it was well worth it, and captured those little things that a regular camera just can't. Stop hesitating and just book Steady State!

We got our wedding video back before we got our photos back! Jason was super quick and responsive from the time we inquired with him to the delivery of our videos. Kevin was our lead videographer (we didn't have Jason) and he did a wonderful job editing! We had very few requests for edits and he came back with the edits the next day! We would definitely recommend Steady State.

The team at Steady State is above and beyond. We almost cut videography for budgeting purposes (we were sticker shocked by some of the other prices we came by), and when we found Steady State at a reasonable cost, we went for it. The quality of the films is next level - we got drone footage, beautiful editing, and we even got to pick the soundtrack. We ended up with several cuts and versions of footage. Jason & team were amazing to work with, and such kind, wonderful people. We just watched our essentially full feature film (1.5 hours) on our one year wedding anniversary - and it's spectacular. It's my favorite moments from our wedding. CANNOT recommend this team enough. Thank you Steady State!!

I came to the team at Steady State with a difficult request -- not only did I want a unique style and cinematographic approach to my wedding video, something I had absolutely no examples of existing in the real world, but I also had a limited budget, due to realizing later in the wedding planning process that videography was a must-have. Not only was the team at Steady State excited about my unique idea, they worked with my needs to identify the package that would fit my budget. The final product was exactly what we were looking for! The cinematography and editing done by Kevin really blew me away and captured my vision in a creative way. Sound and video quality were perfect. Thanks Jason and Kevin!

Jason and his team at Steady State studios captured my husband and my day perfectly. They got all the shots that we would have wanted and created an absolutely gorgeous video for us to enjoy for years to come. We would recommend Steady State to anyone who asked.

Steady State Studios is the best vendor we hired for our downtown Portland, Oregon wedding. Jason responded to every question we had within hours and really walked us through the video process and what we can expect. We wanted more of a home video look for our wedding and he did just that! He listened to what we really wanted them to focus and created our perfect wedding video, and the eye for detail with what he captured on our wedding day will be treasured forever. He offered drone footage for our first look which really made our day extra special. From drone, to ceremony, to testimonials and the dancing, Jason was able to capture everything in a dreamy way. Having your vendors flow with the day and still capture every special moment is very important. Steady state studios is punctual, professional and the perfect hire for as your wedding videographer!

Steady State is amazing! Jason was so easy to work with and was so flexible since we had to reschedule in 2020 due to COVID. He was quick to respond and helped in every way he possibly could to make the reschedule easy. His work was absolutely perfect! The way he edited the photos and the footage he got made for a perfect video that we will always treasure! He is very professional and knows how to capture every moment of the wedding. He is definitely the perfect choice for the perfect day!

I cannot say enough good things about this company!! We hired Steady State Studios do to our photography, videography, and DJ services. Jason was SO responsive from the very beginning. He helped talk me through all of their package options and decide which one would best fit our needs, and was totally flexible when our plans changed with COVID. Everyone was so friendly on our wedding day and made us feel completely comfortable. They captured everything so perfectly and got us back all of our photos and videos so quickly! We couldn't be more happy with our decision to work with Steady State Studios and would recommend them to anyone - they're the best!!

We hired Steady State Studios for our wedding on 10/10/2020 (they handled photograph, videography, live stream and DJ for us). The flavor of the wedding changed a lot due to COVID. The team was extremely understanding and helpful as we navigated that. They helped us swap our original plan for a photo booth and did a live stream for us instead. With our package we got all of our photos and three videos (60 second Instagram cut, ~9 minute one, and the full live events video). All three were amazing and the photos were beautiful. We couldn't be happier!

We had a great experience working with Jason and his team. I would highly recommend their services! The footage was absolutely beautiful. The drone footage was extra special. Jason was responsive and willing to work with me on edits, to make it exactly how we envisioned. We have had so many compliments on how amazing the footage/video is. We will cherish this video of our special day forever. Jason and his team were extremely professional. Thanks so much!

Jason and his team were amazing! They showed up on time and knew exactly what they were doing! They were also very flexible with my wedding date because I had to change my date and usually others charge for date change, so I was very thankful for that! Also they are very good at responding back! I had so many questions and they got back to me with all the answers in a flash. Definitely would recommend! ☺️

Wow! Our wedding video was way more than we expected. I would highly recommend Steady State Studios! They were there for us very last minute and got back to us right away at all times. Kevin and Jason captured every single detail of our wedding from the little things to the biggest moments with our loved ones that we will cherish for forever! I didn’t even think about having them capture a few of the important details and when we got the video, we cried happy tears seeing everything. Both guys were very behind the scenes, you hardly noticed they were there and we ended up with the most beautiful video I could have ever asked for. If you’re thinking about if you should get a videographer or not, DO IT! It is SO worth it and you’ll be so impressed when booking Steady State Studios for the job. We will be watching our video everyday for the rest of our lives!

They did an AMAZING job! So professional and the turn around time was so quick for our photos and videos. My family and I love everything they did for us. Trust these guys to capture all the special moments you’re hoping to preserve. There were specific shots we wanted throughout the day and they captured every single one of them but they were so discreet, they didn’t interrupt any part of the day. The professionalism and communication was fantastic! I highly recommend them!!!

Jason was very accommodating. He listened to what I need and he satisfied all of them! He was very responsive and very caring. He spent endless hours with me on the phone and over email to make sure he noted everything I wanted for my big day. I had real wonderful experience working with him. If you really want a person who cares, you won’t be making a mistake with Jason. He is your guy!!

Steady State Studios did an awesome job with our wedding photos and video. I highly recommend getting the videographer as well - the drone footage really made our video spectacular!

We hired Jason at Steady State Studios to film our wedding at Timberline Lodge in May. He did an awesome job from start to finish. He always responded quickly to any of our questions leading up to the day and after. When it was all said and done he sent us two separate edited videos. One was a five minute teaser video with music, the other was a twenty five minute highlight video. The quality and editing was top notch all around. We would recommend Jason to anyone looking for a wedding videographer!

We had the pleasure of working with Steady State Studios for our wedding video. Jason was very friendly and super helpful from the start. He was always willing to answer questions and in a timely manner. On our wedding day our videographer was Kevin and he did a fantastic job! I barely noticed he was there and he managed to capture every important part of our wedding. When we got our video I was so thrilled. The video was very beautifully captured and edited. I’m so happy and I definitely recommend this company!

We worked with Jason Craig from Steady State studios and were very satisfied and impressed by his work. He was very timely in all communication leading up to the wedding and knew exactly what to do when he got there. He did not need any guidance, as he knew exactly what shots to get and always stayed busy during the wedding doing his thing! We absolutely loved our highlight video he sent promptly one month after the wedding (he is a very busy guy!) and we were so pleased with how it turned out. We can not wait to recieve the full cuts of the ceremony and speaches that were given. Thank you Jason!

They captured the wedding perfectly! Hiring the right photo/video combination was a bit challenging to get the package we needed and not something that was way too much. Jason was very much a breathe of fresh air to meet at the site, make sure what was important to us was delivered, and at a great price. This was not the cheapest company, but they were worth every penny! Our images our stunning. Their creative eye captured so many poignant moments, all the emotions and they worked very hard the entire day of the event. I could not be more pleased and more grateful that we trusted our special day to someone who cared so much about developing a great relationship. Thank you Steady State!

Hiring a videographer was probably one of the best ideas I had for our wedding. I have always been the sentimental type, as it is important to me to document the special times in my life so that I can have the memories forever to share. Since day one, I had been told by friends and family members that their “wedding was such a blur, it went by too quickly” and that they could barely remember what happened. With that in mind, I wanted to make sure that my wedding would be captured so that I could relive that day. I started researching videographers, and found Steady State Studios...I was, quite frankly, blown away with their work. Their portfolio of highlight videos gave me the chills, and I didn’t even know the couples! We began working with Jason, who was very kind, knowledgeable (he’s clearly experienced), and professional. The day of the wedding turned out to be a blur (shocking). From what I remember, I only saw Jason once, maybe twice, the whole evening...he was, no joke, a video ninja! I have no idea how he did it, but the footage we saw in our videos was intimate and from every angle. He also used a drone to get incredible aerial views over the venue...it was gorgeous! Our highlight video was STUNNING. I think I watched it about 20 times on repeat when we first got it! It had the perfect amount of everything (ceremony, vows, reception, etc) to make you have ALL of the feels...it was as if I was experiencing this day all over again. The full-length video was the same, and was truly meaningful as it allowed us to see the ceremony (and speeches, etc) from start to finish. My husband was wearing a microphone, so we were able to hear our sweet little comments to each other...moments like that are why we wanted a videographer. I never would have remembered these intimate moments otherwise! I cannot say enough good things about Jason and Steady State Studios...it was truly a pleasure working with them!!

Jason was amazing. He took the time to get great photos and truly captured how amazing that day was.

Jason Craig from Steady State Studios was from beginning to end very responsive, always answering questions in a timely manner. He was professional and friendly, very easy to work with in person and in writing! He was affordable and well worth the money spent and the time communicating with him. We had many people at our wedding commenting on how professional, friendly, and attentive he was! He was great with the children and the adults, and captured the big moments, while also tailoring the photography to the requests we had made. He was organized and showed up at the right time. I was a stress-mess when Jason showed up since I was not ready yet and did not want to make him wait, and he was so patient and calm and reassured me that it was fine. Jason did not make me or anyone else feel rushed, and everyone had a great time with him as the photographer. Our pictures turned out great and he provided multiple ways for us to obtain our photos simply. He was quick to get the pictures to us and we had so much fun looking through them. Very appreciative that we were lucky to have him at our wedding (:

Incredible videographers !! When their team came to shoot our wedding video, (my husband hates cameras), but we barely even noticed they were there - just like they said it would be! He was amazed. Save for a couple of special "scripted" action shots that we wanted to make our video pop, they were nearly invisible so that we could focus on being there with our family and friends. They captured all of the important heartfelt moments of the walk in, the ceremony, grandparents laughing and friends crying, killer dance moves and our full party set up (we had a lot of special decorations) and the video told everything beautifully for a huge emotional impact. We considered going with a more expensive service that would have been twice as much, but I'm super glad we chose to work with Jason and Kevin since they always maintained prompt communication, flexibility with our video edits, and an extremely high quality outcome. I would highly recommend them for everyone - top notch, very well put together video, and very fun people!!

Jason filmed our weeding back in 2012. He was very great to work with. He was professional and very quick to respond to my emails. The thing I liked best about working with Jason was how patient he was. I must have changed my mind 3 or 4 times about the music I wanted for the opening scene. :) I Would highly recommend Steady State Studios

After a friend videographer fell through, we were stuck looking for a videographer 2 months before our wedding! I was referred to Stready State through the Facebook wedding community. They were very responsive, willing to work with our budget, edit the package just right for us and catered to our every need on details for the day of. The best part was they provided a clip video AND a full 1hr video for the same price or less than all other videographers I looked at. The day of was great, friends and family had no idea I had hired a videographer, he stayed out of the way but caught beautiful film. Final drafts of film were sent to me to confirm they were good and needed no changes, of course they were perfect and no changes were needed. The final product was STUNNING. My husband and I are so thankful things worked out how they did and will love watching the beautiful video(s) for years to come. I recommend them to everyone! Thank you again.

We are very happy with the photos from our wedding. Jason was great to work with; he was so accommodating and produced such professional work. They're great! We're glad we found Jason and this company.

We had the most positive experience working with Steady State Studios! Jason and his team did an amazing job capturing our special day! The videography was absolutely beautiful and beyond what we had imagined. My husband and I are so happy with the wedding video, truly one of the most special things we will cherish forever. We highly recommend working with Steady State Studios! - Courtney & Mike

After much research and talking to many photographers, my husband and I settled on Steady State and Jason. He was so fun to work with and makes you feel at ease and comfortable. Not only did my husband and I enjoy working with him, our bridal party and family members all commented on how fun and easy he was to work with. I can’t wait to see our photos and I would absolutely recommend him to anybody looking!

Jason Craig with Steady State Studios was an absolute joy to work with! He photographed my wedding day I could not be more thrilled with all of the amazing photos. He showed up to the venue on time and with a plan, so we didn’t waste time between poses. I believe is a big part of why we got so many fantastic pictures! Jason is very professional, and made it fun! He always responded promptly to my emails, and made time to meet in person with me and my husband before the big day to go over logistics. I can not say enough great things about Jason and Steady State Studios; I highly recommend them! 

We couldn't have been happier with how our pictures and videos turned out! Working with Jason was a breeze! His laid back vibe kept everyone at ease. We loved the shots/video with the drone! Many of our guests loved that idea! Thanks so much for all the great work your team did!

Jason was easy to work with, responsive, reliable and professional and our final product was wonderful. We would recommend him to anyone

From when I first reached out to Jason, the experience with them has been phenomenal. When it came to videography and photography, I was a very particular bride. Upon hiring Jason and Team, I kept sending them videos that were super advanced and trending out here in Los Angeles. We reside here. We were having our wedding in Newberg as my husband is from Portland area. However, communication was tremendously important as all my vendors were out of state back in Portland. Jason would give extensive helpful feedback as to any of the examples I sent him and ended up supporting me with a team of 3 videographers, lead Videographer, Kevin, who was amazing!!! I requested many things and they really did all of it. I already received my highlight reel and I am just in love. I also requested a certain part of my wedding where my mother and sister sang some hymns and they got that to me right away. Side note: I really needed a drone for my wedding and they made that happen as well. My husband and I really appreciate all Steady State provided. So amazingly responsive and affordable for their superb quality of work!!!

Jason was great to work with. We had a tight timeline for our wedding, and Jason was able to get great shots under a time crunch. He knew what shots worked and was never standing around trying to figure out what to do next. He was very positive and funny, which helped my wife and I relax and have fun. The turnaround on the finished photos was under a week, which was impressive. We're definitely happy with our decision to hire Jason.

The first time my then-fiance and I met Jason, we KNEW without a doubt he would be our videographer. We both have crazy families, and were worried it would be difficult for a videographer to capture all the right moments, withOUT being Mr. Obnoxious wedding videographer (you know the type. "Heyyyy what do you want to say to the happy couple???") Coming from a stoic (but loving) family, marrying into a rambunctious and wild family, we knew it would have to be someone very, very special. Then we talked to Jason. He quelled all my anxieties and fears I felt (spending months combing through videographer after videographer). It was like he understood all my concerns — he described his style as agile/flexible according to how couple/families work best. In our situation, it would be someone who was a friendly but otherwise stealthy "fly on the wall," capturing all our special moments. Our wedding was crazier than I could have ever expected--I actually booked Jason for 2 days because we had celebrations extending into the wedding. Jason was communicative, flexible, fun, friendly throughout the entire wedding planning/day of, but most importantly: he was GOOD. This month, when my husband and I received his video, it was actually my favorite wedding gift I'd received thus far. We were captivated at everything he captured. The man must have had cameras/eyes everywhere, because he really was stealthy: There were angles and views that were incredible. I didn’t have to once ask him to “go here, do this, capture this,” he just knew. (also, I was really stressed :-)). And because Jason was so "behind the scenes," all the moments he captured were organic. No one was posing for the camera or telling canned jokes—he didn’t corner anyone for sound bites and he wasn’t obnoxious. People were laughing, and hugging, and supporting my husband and I with so much love. Needless to say, my husband and I cried a few times watching our wedding video. It brought butterflies to my stomach and took us back to that insanely emotional and beautiful weekend. We are so grateful we got to work with Jason and recommend him x a million. Notes to engaged ladies out there planning a wedding: 1. Get a videographer. Yes, I know you’re debating on it, but at the end of the day, videos are incredible ways to capture/relive/see your wedding in ways photos cannot provide. 2. Get Jason at Steady State. 3. You’re welcome.

Jason did a great job creating a beautiful video that we have enjoyed over and over for the last year since we got married. He was really easy to work with and so friendly. He was so great about making our day so memorable on video. I would say he was even better than our photographer! He was really quick to respond to emails and made a very last minute change to the video. I highly recommend highering him. It was one of the best decisions we made for our weddding. Thank you Jason!

Steady State Studios did an amazing job photographing my wedding and so easy to work with. Kevin was the lead photographer and got some amazing shots, even the big group shots turned out great. I also had Katey as a second photographer and I love all the candid shots of my guests that she got. I could not be happier with the moments they captured and will be recommending them for years to come.

We hired Steady State Studios for our wedding photography, and we couldn't be happier with the results! When we first reached out, they responded right away even though they were on vacation! Shortly after, we spoke with Jason on the phone and he took a lot of time to really understand what we were looking for. He has a fun and engaging demeanor and really knows how to get everyone to smile! The turnaround time on our finished photos was much faster than expected and they are beautiful. We highly recommend Steady State Studios! Thank you! -Rachel & Tom

Jason was amazing to work with! Right off the bat he impressed me with how quick he was to respond to any questions I had. Then he was very easy to work with by how flexible and understanding he was towards last minute changes. Also he had some great ideas for pictures that I hadn't thought of and they are some of my favorite. Definitely will hire again if we are in need and in the area again.

Loved working with Jason. Answered every question quickly. Got some great pics without me feeling intruded on. Felt like he was in the background and not the main attraction. He had good ideas for pics and got ones we wanted. Will use him again.

Steady State Studios has recently recorded a portion of our wedding ceremony in Oregon City. These folks are highly professional, easy to work with, helped us find the package we needed and the quality of the video is superb! We even asked for some small edits, they jumped on it quickly and it came out perfect! I've already recommended them to friends and co-workers.

Steady State Studios did an AMAZING job on our wedding video and capturing that special day. Jason was on time, considering we had a freak snow storm and the roads were horrible! He was all smiles and had a great sense of humor which helped make that day so much fun with all my loved ones. The only thing I would do different would have been to have had them to my photos too!

Jason was a delight to work with. He was quick to respond to all e-mails, and was willing to work in person or over the phone, which is great for a full time nursing student! Photos turned out amazing, and he made all of my guests and wedding party feel comfortable. It was like we knew him forever, he fit right in! He was quick to finish our photos and was totally affordable. Lovely experience.

We are so lucky to find Steady State Studios as our photo and video shooter. Jason and Kevin are so professional to guide us for all the process. Gold to know them and give them best wishes. Highly recommend to have them on that great day. Love you all.

we hired jason on july 23rd 2015 for video and pics, still havent got the video and didnt get the pics till we asked a year later.

We love our pictures! Kevin was so accommodating on our short time-frame, and had so many great ideas. We are inexperienced when it comes to posing for pics but Kevin's ideas turned out great and our friends and family are so happy with the pictures we have posted! He got pictures of all the little details that I wouldn't have even thought to ask him to photograph. His communication was great, and he asked multiple times, multiple questions to make sure he was getting all of the pictures we wanted. What a great experience!

Steady State Studios was wonderful to work with from start to finish! Jason was so fun and creative with the poses and shots he got, he really showed our personalities through the pictures. He even braved the ice storm (Jan 2017), making a long journey on public transit to make sure he got to us on time. We will gladly recommend Steady State Studios to anyone who's getting married and will most definitely be using their services again for our next event!!

Jason was a pleasure to work with prior to our wedding and was so responsive with email I hardly hit "send" and he responded! It was awesome. The day of the wedding Kevin and Aaron were our shooters and they were so nice and put me and our wedding party at ease. They captured our day beautifully!

Steady State Studios was so easy to work with and laid back while still living up to my highly detail oriented dreams! They captured the special moments of our day with ease and went with the flow. I barely noticed they were there most of the time! I will treasure the moments captured by Steady State Studios!

I had to plan our entire wedding long distance and was nervous about this, but everything worked out great! Jason was so responsive to all of my emails full of questions and he was extremely helpful throughout the whole process. He went above and beyond to find a photographer (Crystal Genes Photography) after a conflict arose for the original plan. It was great having both of them there to document the day. Hundreds of high-quality photos were available for me to download with full rights in a very timely manner and I had the opportunity to preview the wedding video and make requests for changes. I highly recommend Steady State Studios! Jason is very talented, honest, and fun! I'm so happy I found out about them!

Jason was great. I didn't even know they were there. We wanted a video of our ceremony for our reception which was next day and he agreed to that in fact he made it so beautiful! Can't wait for the final product.

Best wedding experience! We are from Canada and eloped in Oregon. We weren't sure about booking a photographer online without being able to meet him, but Jason was fantastic. He promptly responded to all our email questions, he was early for the ceremony, and we spent an amazing afternoon shooting wedding pictures. The value to price balance was perfect. Thanks for an unforgettable day and we highly recommend Jason!

We had Jason Craig photograph our wedding from beginning to end, and I cannot say enough good things about him! He was professional, encouraging, kind, respectful and very helpful. I honestly think Jason did more to help me on my wedding day than the wedding coordinator that we paid for with our venue! When my husband and his friends went missing, he went to find him and bring him upstairs to do the first dance etc. (open bar=trouble). When he sent us our pictures, we were very impressed. Jason is talented and all of his photographs were so thoughtfully taken. I am very happy with the quality of the photographs and of Jason's service. I will definitely be reccomending him to friends and family for their special events! Thanks Jason!
