captured and we now have the gift of re-living the best day of our lives each time we watch it. Lev and Nina pour their heart and soul into their artistry, getting to know you as a couple, and highlighting the moments that mean the most. Not only vendors but friends we can't begin to say how thankful we are to have found them!

wedding film and brought it to life in a way that exceeded every expectation. Their creativity, attention to detail, and artistic eye are unparalleled. Lev and Nina were incredibly patient and personable, making us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. They worked tirelessly to capture every special moment without ever feeling intrusive. Their professionalism is top-tier: they were timely, communicative, and went above and beyond to accommodate our requests. We were blown away by how quickly they delivered a highlight reel for Instagram—it was stunning and beautifully encapsulated the magic of the day. The final film? It’s something you’d see in Hollywood... It surpassed every expectation we had, and something we’ll treasure forever. We must have watched it 100 times by now. If you’re considering Vanilla Film for your wedding or any special event, stop thinking and book them NOW. Lev and Nina don’t just make wedding films—they create memories you can relive over and over again. Thank you both for being such an integral part of our day. We couldn’t be happier!

nt we met them, they made us feel so comfortable and at ease—it was like having old friends capturing our memories. If I could relive our day a million times, I wouldn’t change a single thing because they went above and beyond in every possible way. AND CAN WE TALK ABOUT THEIR VIDEOS?!? As someone who works in video and photography, I was incredibly picky about who to trust with this once-in-a-lifetime moment. Vanilla Film blew me away. They perfectly captured the magic of our day, and when we watched it back... let’s just say there were a lot of happy tears! 🥹 Their talent, professionalism, and kindness make them a dream team, and I honestly couldn’t recommend them more. If you want your memories preserved in the most beautiful way, Vanilla Film is IT!

not only captured stunning visuals and crystal-clear audio but also managed to convey the love, happiness, and essence of the entire celebration. We are beyond grateful to have this beautiful keepsake to cherish for the rest of our lives. Their professionalism and talent exceeded all expectations, and we are so glad we chose them as our videographers. If you're looking for someone to perfectly capture your special day, look no further. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

s, the 2 were so incredibly friendly, attentive to detail, respectful of our our vision but also ready with great suggestions, and worked so wonderfully with our planner and the other vendors. Day-of their sweet and cheerful dispositions never wavered [throughout the entirety of the 8+ hours they worked!] and only added to the incredible energy of the celebration. Most importantly, they were seamlessly able to make themselves slip into the background when necessary, so as not to disrupt the "candid" vibe we wanted with our video. The outcome of the process was a short/highlight film that I've watched almost everyday since receiving it, as well as the most special full-length, documentary style video of the whole day, which my husband and I plan to watch every wedding anniversary. If you're debating on whether or not videographers are worth the extra expense for your wedding, I can say without a shadow of a doubt that it was the best investment we made–all those special small moments that would otherwise be forgotten to time are right there for you to refer back to whenever you want and Nina and Lev did the most spectacular job capturing them. You needn't look further for your videographer!

t special moment of our lives but also deliver our stories, our vibes. We are introverts but when we are with each other and feeling comfortable, we bring the goofy, bold side out of each other and I wanted the video to show that. It was a lot to ask I know (lol) but Lev and Nina DELIVERED and more!! They are delightful people to be around so the shoot was a breeze. We had SO MUCH FUN and the shoot was filled with great conversation, (note that we are introverts! They KNOW how to make ppl feel comfortable) And they have a great focus on details and make sure they have all the shots they need, and they make sure you are on the same page with them regarding what to expect, etc. We still talk about how great decision it was to work with them, so if you are pondering over whether or not you should hire them, just book a consultation already! You'll thank yourself later when you watch the video :)

ging and my venues and vendors have been cancelling left and right. I changed my wedding plans to 3 completely different location in Washington because of covid. Every time I had a hardship with the wedding and a change of plans, Nina and Lev have been the easiest and most understanding and compassionate individuals that helped me navigate the next steps because I did not want to post pone. They never once made me feel stressed with having things constantly change. Nina and Lev also put %150 into this project! I also would recommend adding the pre video because it gave me a chance to get to know Nina and Lev and become friends prior to the wedding so that I felt like they were good friends surrounded by us on our important day! Not just videographers!! There is a huge difference in their quality of video compared to any other I researched !

at shy in front of the camera, but Lev and Nina put his mind at ease. Their films are of the highest video and sound quality. They were able to capture our full wedding day beautifully in an hour and twenty-minute film. We also received a stunning highlight video that was masterfully edited with the perfect clips and music choices…it literally looks like a move trailer. They really have a wonderful eye for angles and lighting, and their creativity shines in their videos. While Lev and Nina are as sweet as vanilla, there is nothing vanilla about their services. Prepare to cry tears of joy as you watch and remember your special day that only Vanilla Films could flawlessly capture.

enjoy and I believe the videographers will adjust the mood of the films depending on the day of the wedding to keep the vibe organic. On the day of, we met at our getting ready location and they proceeded to film us all the way through the end of our reception. Lev and Nina are so kind and warm that we felt instantly comfortable and our wedding party also really enjoyed their presence. We loved the final video as the mood is exactly what we wanted and Lev and Nina made us look so good. Highly recommended!

of the camera and providing clear direction during the posed shots, to capturing all the candid footage without distracting us and our guests. They brought all their gear and were well prepared to shoot outside when it started raining as well as inside our dimly lit venue.  We absolutely love our video!  It beautifully captures all our emotions on our wedding day. All the shots and transitions are so seamless, and the cinematic style is perfect.  They even delivered our highlight video and raw footage much earlier than expected. We are forever grateful for this gift that allows us to relive one of the most important days of our lives. Thank you, Nina and Lev!  Your work is amazing!

edding. Their professionalism and commitment went above and beyond our expectations, capturing our most treasured moments and beautifully combining them into films of cinema-level quality. We sincerely cannot provide a higher recommendation for their level of cinematography, artistic vision, and genuine compassion in helping us through our wedding day. For context, we did not have much initial direction when we started our search for a wedding videographer. However, we knew our wedding was going to be incredibly hectic and wanted to ensure we had a solid video team so we could actually appreciate our wedding after the big event. We searched through countless websites and sample videos to little avail, but knew we found exactly what we were looking for when we found Vanilla Film. Lev and Nina immediately jumped on a video call with us to introduce themselves, learn more about us as a couple, and provide some direction on how they would personalize their videography to match our personalities and expectations. Their kind-heartedness and creativity shined through their personalities, and we could instantly tell they were going to be fantastic to work with. They made everything so easy for us, accommodating the schedule and locations of our multi-day wedding, and staying in consistent contact with us leading up to our big day(s). We knew we could rely on them through every step of our wedding planning process and they produced a spectacular video we will treasure forever. We honestly felt like movie stars and you can see their commitment to quality film-making through every shot of our video. We cannot speak more highly of Lev and Nina and their cinematography. They were professional and genuine through every step of our wedding and will forever be a part of our fondest wedding memories. We know they will only continue to make some of the best wedding cinematography on the market and we will genuinely miss our interactions with them.

oth the featured film and highlight footage. Not only were we blown away with your ability to edit, produce, and capture sentimental moments, we were also amazed at your ability to blend in both background sound and music so well with the footage. (Bravo!!!) The cost were competitive/better than the other vendors we researched (It's definitely a commitment for videography, but one that is well worth the investment). Once again, thank you for capturing our special day and very making it so easy to work along side you during our big day.

io/website/video we had seen prior, we hated (I am SO particular, and everything we saw prior to finding Vanilla Films... was overdone, cheesy, basic and cringey LOL, sorry for the truth). They are worth every dollar. They are worth more than the value most people put on video as photo typically trumps video in this process. Lev and Nina are such talented artists, they are quick, they require NO direction (seriously, trust them and let them do what they do best) and on top of that, they are the most respectful, kind, easy people to work with.

riends. They were great at making us feel comfortable on camera and directing us in shots as well as capturing the candid moments. They were very responsive in all our emails and were accommodating to changes that we wanted made in our feature film. Getting a videographer for our wedding was completely worth it and we are so glad we hired Nina and Lev!

ne who’s looking to capture their big day in a cinematic style!

an amazing job. The day of the wedding, they were able to film everything without being intrusive and I'm so glad they were there! Not just because we now have a beautiful film to relive our special day, but also because it felt like we had two extra friends at the wedding! I would definitely recommend Lev and Nina to anyone and if you are on the fence about hiring videographers, please do it! My advice to brides now would be put aside money in your budget for a video and cut costs somewhere else because it is so worth it!

r videos and being blown away by what they put together for us. They are such sweet people and incredibly talented videographers, we honestly cant imagine finding anyone better to capture our day in the way that they did! They shared with us such special moments that we didnt even realize were so special until we saw them in our videos, and added all the fun and craziness that went down at our wedding. I could go on and on, but they are the best and you wont regret making them part of your special day!

and we are so grateful. We recommmend them to everyone we know.

made! Fast forward 7-8 months, and OH MY. They delivered. Nina and Lev are the sweetest people, who can make anyone feel comfortable in front of the camera! They are masters at their craft and do an incredible job directing their clients, while still making you feel like you're actually just enjoying the moment candidly rather than filming. There is also something to say when your videographer and photographer gel SO well. Thank you, Lev and Nina, for such a wonderful experience working with the two of you! We can't wait to see the final product!

g. They spent the whole day with us and no one even realized we had a videographer there! They sent us our footage and highlight video after a few short weeks. I would recommend this team to anyone who is looking for a videographer who can capture the feeling and tell the story of your wedding day. So grateful to have found them.

sharing them with our family and friends. Nina and Lev did an amazing job and captured our day beautifully. They did a great job capturing the mood of the day as well as the little details that made it so special, and we loved their editing style. They were professional, friendly, made us feel at ease, and were fun to have around on the wedding day. Cannot recommend them enough!

l about them, but when they showed up on the wedding, these guys were on time with all their equipment. We just love how they were so proactive, starting doing the work without us telling them what to do and when to do it. They were very flexible to offer the kind of service we needed. Even though it was their first time to work on that venue, they really demonstrated high level of creativeness. Overall, I would recommend because of high quality of their work and professionalism. Thank you for your help. Lev

d the most important day of our lives that was so authentic. They were so comfortable to work with from start to finish. We were at first questioning if we needed a video to capture our wedding, but with Lev and Nina’s creativity it was more than we could have ever wanted. Thank you Nina and Lev for the best experience, you guys were truly amazing!

direction and generally being really easy to be around during somewhat stressful times leading up to the ceremony. Rory and I are so glad we trusted Vanilla Film with our important day, and you won’t regret getting a video done, it is SO worth it because the video brings your big day to life - as if you are reliving it again ❤️ We LOVE our video - we bought the package with that included a short- and long-form version, and it has been such a treasured thing for us and our families to watch whenever we please. We have made a new tradition to watch these videos every wedding anniversary.

very interaction. They were on time, made us feel relaxed and then became pretty much invisible in the rest of the day, yet able to capture shots. I didn't remember they were there for. I got my video within the timeline quoted, and it looked amazing! Lev and Nina were friendly, easy to work with, professional and always made me feel like I was in trusted hands. I highly recommend VanillaFilm to everyone, they are truly talented filmmakers.
