If you want a cookie cutter wedding videographer, look elsewhere. There are ample words that could describe Wes Raitt Cinema, but ordinary is not one of them. I scoured what seemed liked hundreds of wedding videos on more than a handful of videographers pages, made my husband watch them until he was blue in the face, but once I found Wes’s work, and watched his videos, it was the easiest choice we made by far for selecting one of our vendors. Fast forward to the day of, where he was professional, comfortable, and so easy going with our photographers that people thought they were a package deal, and we were yet again solidified in our decision. A week into our marriage, Wes delivered the perfect, cinema like movie trailer in the form of a jaw dropping teaser, which left us wanting more . We could not wait to receive our full length film! Once we were able to view the wedding video in its entirety, we each just wanted to watch it again and again. It was perfect. And it was a true reflect of us and our day. And that is the thing about Wes- he not only creates a cinema worthy video of the best day for the bride and groom, it’s like he custom made it FOR the bride and groom. After combing through his wedding videos, each one is so perfectly tailored to the couple on the film...and that is the beauty of what he does and what makes him truly unique. Cody and I LOVE our wedding video- because it is us. If you watch Wes’s other films they are all fantastic, no two the same, but I couldn’t and didn’t really fully appreciate his work until I saw our film and compared it with the others he did; because in just one day of filming, he was able to capture the vibe, feelings, emotion, and personality of both my husband and I, and showcase that in our wedding “movie”. And THAT is why you should look no further, and hire Wes Raitt Cinema immediately!
If you're thinking of video for your wedding, you should book Wes ASAP! He is passionate about his work and will take on only as many bookings he can while still being able to fully dedicate his creative energy to making each couple's day uniquely theirs. Wes's films are epic (and that's an understatement). If you are looking for a run of the mill wedding video, look elsewhere. He has a meticulous eye for detail and capturing hidden moments. His passion and creative energy are contagious and the end product is stunning. We highly recommend checking out his website and you will see a portfolio of videos that will make you give you all the feels. The videos reflect the love and beauty of each couple and perfectly captures their story. We had a lot of fill Wes's plate (a surprise flashmob, a traditional Vietnamese tea ceremony, a western ceremony, specific action shots with rose petals and dances, grand entrances, etc) and he was even more excited about it all than we were! He even surprised us with an incredible 360 shot of our flash mob! Wes made us feel comfortable being our true authentic selves, completely connected with our vision, and helped us capture it all forever in an incredible video. We are so blessed to have had the opportunity to work with him.
Wes came all the way from Austin to Cleburne, TX (outside of Fort Worth) and exceeded all of our expectations with our teaser film that came out just ONE WEEK after the wedding. Wes was a natural with the camera, discrete and behind the scenes with an amazing gift of creativity and a vision for the wedding film. We were the couple that was a going to either NOT have a videographer OR go big! And we don't have one regret about deciding to go with Wes. His films are unique and individualized to the customers style, personality and demeanor. We cannot wait to see our full film in a couple of months. We trust Wes 100% and he never disappoints!
My advice would be to not wait and book Wes now! He is such a talented guy! There are many talented wedding vendors that produce beautiful work, but Wes has a superb professionalism as well. I learned the hard way with some of my other wedding suppliers, that not everyone is professional and timely with their communication, however, you won't have to worry with Wes because he did such a good job communicating with us and being responsive. He even took extra time to Skype with us (we live in New Zealand) to make sure all our questions were answered before contracting. On the day, he went above and beyond to capture the unique and special moments of our day in such a jaw-dropping and WOW way. Wes is one talented guy and he has a special ability to not only capture the movement of the day through film, but he captures the excitement and buzz, the emotion, the real energy of your wedding. The problem you will have after is trying to think of other events you can hire him for! So don't wait...book him now before your date is gone, you won't regret it.
From the first conversation with Wes I knew he was going to be a great fit for us. He was knowledgeable, insightful and easy to speak with. He asked guided questions that helped us envision how to best capture our special moments. After Wes toured our wedding and reception site he identified shots that make the most of the venue and available light, and integrated those into the shot we had suggested.
On our wedding day Wes was seamlessly integrated into the entire event- from the time when the bridal party was having our hair and makeup done, to the ceremony, and the reception. He got along wonderfully with friends and family, like a natural. He had great finesse as he wrangled guests of all ages and personalities into our "posed" photos.
I was beyond delighted when Wes shared our photos with us. He uploaded them to an easy-to-use site, organized by theme (getting ready, ceremony, etc) that allowed us to easily download and share the images. The quality and color of the photos is more than I had hoped for. More importantly- the moments he captured are priceless. We have photos of glances, smiles, dances and laughter that we'll always remember thanks to Wes. He was even able to memorialize our fireworks show.
In short- Wes is a true talent and a joy to work with. You won't be disappointed if you hire him for your wedding, or any special occasion.
Hire Wes and you will not go wrong. Wes may be "new" in the wedding business, but he is exceptionally professional, so kind, and delivers an amazing product.
We were uncertain about whether or not we should hire a videographer, and I'm so glad we found Wes. The wedding day was so quick and fleeting, and even as much as I tried, I couldn't pause and soak it all in as much as I wanted to. But now, I have Wes' beautiful video, and I get to relive all of the most special moments that he captured every time I watch it, and I am so thankful.
Wes arrived hours early on our big day to get to know the venue and plan his shots. This attention to detail and planning made Wes able to capture shots from everywhere at once, but be seamless and barely noticable during the day. He worked so well with the other vendors, and coordinated with them to get the best shots efficiently and to get us on our way to the reception.
One of my favorite features of hiring Wes was the day-of edit that he finished BEFORE the reception. I don't know how he did it! It was a beautiful 30 second clip of our ceremony, and was so special to already be able to see during our reception.
I can't recommend hiring Wes as your videographer enough. Using video captures the movement, words, and sweet moments of the day that no other medium can, and I am so glad we have Wes' work from our day! I know budgets can be tight , but this was the best decision we made for our day!
