y and calmed in the moments I needed it the most. He knew what to do in every moment and how to capture our dream! The video was dreamy; it was way beyond our expectations; we looked like movie stars. Thanks to him and his team we were able to enjoy our wedding day for the second time since during the day of the wedding we were too busy to really be present and pay attention to so many details. The video captured so many amazing details that I know for sure we did not see during the wedding day. The quality of the video was just spectacular. We will forever treasure this special day thanks to him! If you are still shopping around you can stop here and feel assured that you got yourself a gem for your special day! His kindness and talent did it for us!
Wow! When we got our video back it truly went above and beyond our expectations. Could not recommend Waking Dreams Films anymore. Don’t look any further.

of meeting him he was able to ease the wedding stress. His warm present and professionalism made me feel so comfortable in choosing him to create our special day. On the big day, he was able to capture stunning pictures and video including drone footage! I could not have asked for more, he got every detail and moment and truly made us have the best day. A video to look back on that felt like a movie watching it! Would highly recommend Dash and his team!

e worked so hard, had amazing personalities, and worked as a team. They were personable, able to direct people, as well as give free rein of different styles of pictures that you wanted. My entire family could not be happier! The communication was great, and the entire time I was having pictures taken, they made me feel confident, and also made me laugh. They ensure to get all of the important moments without having the bride and or groom stress over time. We enjoyed working with them so much, We ended up buying an extra hour, it was totally worth it. After working with these individuals, I am confident in their work, it was a pleasure to work with such a great team and people that work so hard to make you happy. Again, thank you so much, we could not have had a better day. I was nervous at first, however, all I had to do was follow Dash’s lead and everything worked out perfect. What a great photography/videography team.

solute best. Not only is he an amazing videographer, he’s an even better human. He truly takes his time to make sure your wedding video is everything you dream of. If you are reading this, book waking dreams films ASAP! You will not regret it.

solutely perfect for us. We were moved to tears when we watched it. We would hire him again in a heartbeat!
We are so happy with the whole experience, very professional, best quality video!
Where do I even start with Dachel... from the beginning and the very first time we spoke on the phone I knew he was great and could truly hear in the way he spoke his passion for f...
ilm. Not only is he crazy talented and knowledgeable but his ability to make you feel like you have such a huge impact on the vision of your video means everything. Of course you reach out to some one because you like their style but the second I spoke with him he made me so excited for our video and our wedding was 8 months away! He just made me feel like our video was going to be so unique and special for him to be able to create for us. I can’t say enough good things about him, our in person meeting lasted for hours, he was just so creative and innovative and I loved every second it! Fast forward to the wedding day and he brings his soon to be wife as the second shooter and not only she is the cutest thing ever she is so kind and sweet and these two just make an unstoppable team! They moved around the hotel get ready room and during the whole wedding like flys on the wall, capturing every single moment and detail without ever feeling crowded or that they were in the way it truly is a gift. When it was time for them to go I truly wanted them to stay and hang out because with out even seeing the video yet I honestly felt so grateful. Grateful for how hard they both worked all day and grateful how they made me feel on my wedding day I felt like I gained two new friends I would recommend these two in a heartbeat to anyone! Which I did! To my friend that is getting married in a month and I can without a doubt say that she is going to have the same experience I did! I don’t even have my video back and I’m confidently giving this review that says a lot! I will leave another as well after I receive what I know will be an incredible video. Even the next day my mom commented on how much she liked the both of them. They are the best and you won’t regret choosing to have them be a part of your special day!
Dachel is awesome! He truly captured moments I didn’t even realize in our vow renewal. A pleasure to be around, very kind and an excellent videographer. He always responded immedi...
ately. I’m so glad we were introduced to him. Look no further for your wedding memories to be preserved in a beautiful way, Dachel is simply the best!! Thank you so much again! The Clarks
This review has been such a long time coming...What an amazing experience! It was so wonderful to work with Dachel. From the moment he met with my husband before our wedding, and...
with such short notice might I add, he explained his vision and was an excellent communicator throughout the entire process. He is passionate about what he does and his work truly shows that. Words cannot express how happy my husband and I are with our wedding video. It brings me to tears every time I watch our special day, because he was able to capture the most beautiful memories that we will be able to look back at and cherish for a lifetime. He went above and beyond anything we could've ever asked for. We highly recommend Dachel, his work and his amazing attention to detail. Thank you so much!
