There aren't enough stars for us to give Craig, Tyler, Cody, and the team at Watertown for the amazing job they did on our wedding videos. Everyone we've shown the videos to has ab...
solutely loved them, and we've watched them all so many times. It really captures the magic of the day perfectly for us, and even on the 20th viewing, we still tear up.
A special thanks to Tyler and Cody who, besides getting incredible footage, also took charge and started directing things when our coordinator was nowhere to be found. These guys had a plan, and they made it work perfectly. They were ready for anything to go wrong, so when the DJ's microphone setup failed during our ceremony, we still got perfect audio from everyone for the recording. We were super impressed, and we really had a great time working with them.
All told, I can't recommend Watertown highly enough. They've been amazing professionals from start to finish, their work is impeccable, and the way they capture the heart and soul of the day is unparalleled. They are well worth the cost, no doubt. Check out their portfolio; we teared up at almost every video we watched, and we didn't even know those people!
Then, wipe your eyes, and hire these guys. You'll be glad you did.
It was a pleasure working with Craig on our wedding day. He was so friendly, kind, and professional throughout the process. I would recommend Craig to anyone looking for a videogra...
pher to capture their special event!
Craig was so amazing to work with from the start! From the moment I saw some of his other films, I just knew he had to be the videographer we hired for our intimate ceremony on the...
Oregon coast in Cannon Beach. I loved how emotive his films were and I knew that if I was crying while watching complete strangers' films, that I would definitely have an equally, if not more, emotional reaction to our own film made by him! (It was definitely more emotional and I still tear up watching it 4 months later! hehe) Craig was so responsive when I had questions leading up to the day of and I really appreciated all of his advice on the logistics for our ceremony. When we met him on the day of, it felt like we were hanging with an old friend. My makeup artist was surprised to hear that we hadn't met him to that day and she said it seemed like we had been friends for ages based on the interactions.
On the day of our ceremony there was a shift in the weather. The forecast had called for cloudy skies and a slight chance of rain, which I totally would have been okay with! But instead we had sun all day and a beautiful sunset. This created a logistical issue for us since we had planned to have our ceremony with Haystack Rock in the background. With the gorgeous weather, there were so many folks on the beach and it made for a not-so-intimate setting with lots of distractions. Craig asked if I was open a change in the site, which I was, so he and our photographer took a trip up the road to scout some more secluded locations. They found the perfect spots for us to do our first look and then for our ceremony! I really appreciated this effort from both of them to ensure that we had the intimate ceremony we hoped for. Craig even included some footage of Haystack Rock in the film for us even which we really liked!
We didn't tell our friends and family about hiring a videographer and we surprised that at our party back home in Northern California a few weeks later. We invited them to the outdoor patio where we had a project and screen set up. We played the film for them and there wasn't a dry eye afterwards. Everyone loved it! We're so grateful for the beautiful story he told of our day. I'm so glad that we found him and I'm so happy to have such an dreamy and romantic keepsake from our special day!
Craig is FREAKING amazing. He went with the flow, helped out where needed, provided amazing direction, and just overall was phenomenal. He went so above and beyond for us and sent ...
handwritten cards before the date. I'm not gonna lie... I tear up thinking about what Craig did for us. He didn't just show up, he showed up, hiked, carried bags, and ultimately made the most beautiful video we've ever seen. Our families weeped. He captured everything so perfectly.. I feel like I can only say so many good things, but nothing will compare to what he gifted us. Thank you so much Craig.
Best videographer! Compared to all the videos my friends have posted from their weddings, the video I got from Watertown films puts them to shame. Craig was very punctual and prof...
essional. Highly recommended.
We had the best experience with Watertown Films! From the very beginning, Craig was dedicated to getting to know us and knowing our story. His detailed email correspondence helped ...
us keep all the pre-wedding specifics in place. He is so great at capturing the emotions of the day and when I watch his films, I am always moved to tears.
Craig showed up early to our venue to scout locations and make sure everyone knew what they were doing and where to be. He worked seamlessly with our photographer and was the best combination of organized and laid back. I would highly recommend Watertown Films for all your videography needs and cannot wait to see our wedding film!
Worked well with other photographers and had a good balance of knowing when to play an active role and when not to. Helped with my boutonnière, very friendly and cordial!
My wife and I were blown away at how well Craig and his team captured our wedding day. The video was immersive and edited together so seamlessly. We enjoy watching it from time to...
time... it certainly helps you re-live and re-love that special moment. We couldn’t recommend Watertown Films enough!
Thanks Craig!
Watertown Films was wonderful. I originally didn’t want to pay for a videographer and thought photos were going to be just fine. Boy am I glad I changed my mind. Our wedding day wa...
s perfectly captured. I love my photos, but the video is really what I go back to all the time to remember the feelings I had throughout the day. It is the best reminder of such a special day for us. The professionalism of both the videographers and how they worked with our photographer was so great to see. They were courteous and kind, they also were good at giving my husband and space to spend together while capturing it on film. Those are some of my favorite moments, the “secret ones” that got to be captured. Every time I watch my wedding film I see little details that might have been forgotten without a video. I notice new things each time I rewatch it and that is so fun!
I would 100% recommend Watertown Films for your wedding needs.
If you are wondering if you should pay for video - DO IT!!! And use this company.
Like most couples, we were hesitant when it came to booking a videographer for our wedding. Weddings are expensive, and unfortunately videography is one of those areas that is ear...
ly to the chopping block. Thankfully a close friend urged us to consider it, and after asking our photographer for a recommendation, we found Watertown Films. The first thing we did was head over to their website and watch a few sample videos - we were blown away. I'm already an easy crier, but the emotion that Craig is able to capture and put to film is incredible. Working with Craig was wonderful - he has an air about him that puts you at ease immediately - certainly a refreshing change given the stress of wedding planning! Furthermore, he made my (now) husband and I feel extremely comfortable behind the camera on the big day - his professionalism and tact was comforting to us, our bridal party, and our guests. The ending product was everything we hoped it would be and more - and something we will cherish for the rest of our lives!
Craig and his team made our day so special !! He made us comfortable and captured our day so perfectly. His style is different and I really appreciate that about him. I would recom...
mend Craig to anyone!!!
