These videos are absolutely beautiful! David captured all the emotion, the reverence, the worship, the love and joy perfectly. The videos are truly a work of art.
It was an honor t...
o have him celebrate with us and to have his talent create memories for a lifetime.
The church was a challenge with narrow aisles. I appreciate how David took care of everything with a smile and no complaints!
David was so kind and professional. He handled everything with barely a question.
I highly recommend Stella Maris Weddings.

When my wife and I were looking for a photographer and videographer, it was important to us to find Catholics who would be able to know what was important to us to capture on our w...
edding day. I happened upon Stella Maris Weddings through web searching. From our very first contact, my wife and I were such at ease with David.
He was not only professional and courteous, but his prayerful demeanor just let us know that we were in good hands. My wife was a bit apprehensive about hiring a videographer due to a bad experience at a relative's wedding. David put all of her fears to rest.
David is responsive and accommodating. He traveled much farther to film our wedding than I think most videographers would. He answered all our questions and was a supportive presence on our wedding day. He captured all of the footage necessary for the blessed event, and did so without ever getting in the way or becoming a problem. He worked well with our photographers and was such a joy to be around.
My wife and I love the videos. She was moved to tears on several occasions. It's so cool to see our wedding day reproduced with such professional looking videos. It's an added bonus that our videographer was someone who was willing to pray for us. Our videos and drives were delivered in reasonable timeframes and David was always an email away if we ever had a question.
We have no hesitation recommending him for videoing a wedding or other special event. Weddings are stressful enough and not all vendor experiences are great. David and Stella Maris Weddings can give you one less thing to stress about on your wedding day.
If you are looking for a videographer Stella Maris is the place to go. I was very particular about what I wanted my video to look like and include. I spoke with David several times...
about everything I wanted included and things I wanted left out. He was so quick, kind ,and very accommodating to every request I had. I never had to wait more than 12 hours to have a response back, which I appreciated greatly. David and his team made the whole experience so easy and relaxing for my husband and I. Your wedding day is very hectic, but David never made us feel rushed or overwhelmed in anyway. After the wedding David continued to have wonderful communication and was super quick to have our video back to us. We were blown away by the edited videos produced by the team. My husband wanted to see a few of the video tapes that didn’t make the official video and David was eager to supply them to us! I can not praise Stella Maris and David enough! We highly recommend you trusting Stella Maris to capture your special day.
David is a dear friend and roommate who I’ve known for years. When I had a situation arise with the videos from my wedding I needed someone to make a professional video out of the...
raw footage. I had just seen a documentary David made and his work was excellent. I was hoping David would be willing to help and my hope was not in vain. That’s David. He’s a good guy with a great vision to preserve memories. He did a fantastic job of working with the video and turning it into something beautiful that we will cherish. He will work with you to know your needs and create something amazing for your day. You will not regret working with David and his company.
I cannot say enough about how much I adore this team! The care that was taken to capture every detail, the open communication about scheduling and moments we wanted captured, the a...
bsolute professionalism in every step of the journey…everything was just everything I could ever want in a videography team. The product is so magnificent! My husband and I tear up every time we watch the movie quality videos produced from our special day. I wish I could give 100 stars!

ery. Every interaction was fun, creative, kind, and left us feeling completely taken care of in every aspect of capturing these milestones. These carefully crafted story visuals have helped us on more than one occasion to immerse ourselves back into these treasured memories that will serve as anchors in the love we share for a lifetime. Looking back we couldn't be more satisfied with the quality of the process and production of the Stella Maris Weddings team and we are forever grateful for them treating us with such care and consideration as they showed us the best sides of ourselves and the love we share, now, as husband and wife. We hope you get the opportunity to have the same incredible experience that we did from the Stella Maris Weddings Team.
The Stella Maris team did an amazing job capturing our wedding this past April. They were so easy to work with and accommodating to anything we asked for. David and his team worked...
so well alongside the photographers, never getting in the way, but still present to get every important moment and detail. We absolutely love how our videos came out and would strongly recommend Stella Maris to anyone looking for a wedding videographer.
I originally priced some very pricey videographers and then decided to spend the money on a different portion of my wedding budget. About 2 weeks before my wedding my father decide...
d that I should have a videographer so I began my search and through a recommendation by another videographer found David with Stella Maris. First of all, I am a shy more reserved person and I cannot even begin to express to you how unbelievably nice, considerate, and thoughtful David is. We met the morning of my wedding and from the very first moment he exceeded every expectation. The entire experience was so natural. David was able to be a chameleon while getting whatever footage he needed as if he wasn't even there and then be the absolute sweetest person you've ever encountered when interacting with him. His assistant was just as genuine as he was. When I say they went above and beyond to be the most kind people they literally used their lights and walked my grandmother to her car the night of the wedding after everything was done to make sure she got to her car safely. I absolutely love all the videos that came in my package. I cried the first time watching our love story video. Using Stella Maris to capture your wedding day will be the best decision you have ever made truly.
David with Stella Maris is a kind, insightful, and wonderful human who we were so lucky to have document our wedding day. I'm so thankful to my mom who found him and told me that s...
he got the best impression from him the first time the spoke. He worked with her on the price of the services and when it came time to shoot, he put us at ease with his calm demeanor and his knowledge of his craft. He and his team (Brandon & Olivia) were so encouraging and so joyful to be around. They were so creative - the shots that were captured via drone are incredible also! People who weren't able to attend due to distance or COVID told me they felt like they were there when watching the videos. Everyone who was able to attend told me that I was glowing, but I didn't understand what they meant until I saw the videos. David and his team captured and presented that joy so beautifully for us! I kept saying that the wedding was the best night of my life and that I wished I could do it again. Thanks to the footage from David and Stella Maris, I get to relive it whenever I want! I could not recommend them more!
Definitely do not hesitate to book Stella Maris, all around best videographers ever. I am constantly rewatching my wedding videos and I can honestly say that it feels as if it's my...
wedding day all over again. David captured all the laughs, smiles, crying and crazy dance moves. It was truly the best decision I made. David and his assistant are very professional and fun! We truly thank you for being a part of our special day, definitely made it worth wild!

I can not thank David enough for the wonderful and beautiful video he created for my daughter, Courtney's wedding. With the unexpected postponements and rescheduling of the wedding...
(3 times) due to Covid 19, he was more than happy to video her wedding. He captured the love between Courtney and Nick and created a wonderful "Love Story" video for her to share with the out of town guest that could not attend.
Thank you, David, for going over and beyond my wildest imagination and capturing such a beautiful event in my daughter's life. I cannot thank you enough.
I would highly recommend Stella Maris Weddings Videos.
Thank you again, Shiela Cole
Absolutely perfect attention to detail
I cannot recommend David Warren enough. He was friendly, communicative, professional, and incredibly talented.
We decided on a videographer kind of last minute (2 months before w...
edding). Due to Covid we wanted to have something to share with the friends and family who could not join. But we were unsure whether we could afford anything with our budget. David was open to tweaking his package to fit all our requirements and budget.
I'm so happy with his services. From first contact until videos were produced, David was incredibly quick to respond (and perpetually patient) to all my detailed questions and concerns.
We got the videos back INCREDIBLY quickly and they were EXACTLY what we wanted.
He and his assistant Suarav traversed the day expertly blending in when needed but always being exactly where they were needed to get the best shots.
If you are looking for a talented, calming, budget friendly artist to immortalize your special day forever, go with Stella Maris. You will not be disappointed.
We enjoy watching these videos from our daughter’s wedding day. David took great care and presented us with a professionally made video.
