We communicated throughout the entire day that we worked together, and helped each other get the best coverage for our bride and groom! I would definitely work with her again!

Hi! I’m Gui Bittencourt, a multicultural wedding photographer and videographer based in Los Angeles. Since 2017, I’ve had the honor of documenting love stories across cultures, traditions, and backgrounds—each one authentic, vibrant, and meaningful. My style blends candid storytelling with gentle guidance. I’m not here to stage your day—I’m here to capture it as it really felt. The quiet glances. The belly laughs. The way your people show up for you. Whether you're planning a joyful celebration or something more intimate, I’ll be there with a calm presence and an attentive eye, so you can stay fully in the moment.

Awarded Best of Zola
Discovery & Initial Communication I learned about Gui’s services through word of mouth. A friend highly recommended him after hiring him for her son’s birthday party. Based on her glowing review, I decided to hire him for my very intimate civil ceremony. My main goal was to have the event beautifully documented so we could share the final video with family and close friends. From the very start, communication with Gui was seamless. He was responsive, efficient, and incredibly patient when addressing my detailed inquiries. One aspect I truly appreciated was his initiative to schedule a pre-event video call. This gave him the opportunity to get to know us, understand our personalities, and discuss our expectations for the shoot. His willingness to listen and incorporate our ideas made the entire process feel collaborative and personal. Planning & Preparation One of the reasons I chose Gui was his ability to include a highlight reel in the video package—something I really wanted. During our meeting, he welcomed my ideas and suggestions for the final video, showing a genuine interest in delivering a product that reflected our vision. Gui’s level of preparation was impressive. He took the time to scout the courthouse and a nearby park beforehand, ensuring we had the best possible locations for our shoot. His preparedness and attention to detail gave me peace of mind leading up to the event. The Day of the Ceremony On the day of our civil ceremony, everything went smoothly. Gui greeted us warmly at the courthouse, immediately setting a positive and reassuring tone. His calm and easygoing demeanor helped ease my nerves—something I truly appreciated amidst the mix of adrenaline and excitement of the day. He captured moments effortlessly, allowing us to be present and enjoy our special day without feeling overly directed or staged. Final Thoughts & Recommendation Overall, I couldn’t be happier with Gui’s work. His professionalism, creativity, and dedication to capturing our special day exceeded my expectations. If you’re looking for a videographer who is not only talented but also personable and well-prepared, I highly recommend Gui. 10/10 – Would definitely hire him again!

Hi there, my name is Caleb but most people call me Cook. I spent almost 13 years in the southeast filming weddings, events, corporate gigs and commercials. I moved to California in 2012 and pursued a different career. A couple years ago I decided to get back into event videography and started Cook Captures. When shooting events I have a very hands off candid style. I love to capture people naturally having fun, enjoying the day and creating memories. Every event I film is unique and each film ends up with it’s own story and narrative that fit the couple, venue, guests and overall vibe of your wedding.

Cook is super easy going and easy to get along with. His work also speaks for itself, it’s high quality and exactly what you want! He captures people in the entirety and a good turn around time. I would highly recommend him to everyone!

Intimate and unique films tailored to you. Every wedding is different, just like every couple. What they all share in common is our love for getting together. Our need to share and connect is as human as it gets. As life takes us in different directions, getting together can become a challenge. So when our family and friends make the time to get together, we want to make sure to remember it and capture those moments. That’s where we come in. We want to capture the big and little moments of your celebration, because these moments are worth preserving ♡

Nadia was absolutely AMAZING to work with and captured our day BEAUTIFULLY. Nadia came recommended to us by our photographer, and we are so grateful that we found her. She was very receptive to how we wanted the video to look and made sure we were comfortable while filming. She was able to help cue us into doing certain things that came out AMAZING on film. I cannot recommend Nadia enough. Thank you Nadia for the love and care you showed my husband and I and for the way you were able to capture the energy of our wedding so perfectly.

That's the stuff that lasts longer than a few years after your wedding. The stuff your kids will pull out and watch.

Ben is such a talented videographer! We are super happy with the film and had a great experience working with him. His artistic take on editing and music makes the film an emotion triggering art piece. We also really appreciate his support during the pandemic. We had to reschedule twice during the whole process, not only was he flexible, he didn't even raise the price after two years and flew all the way to Seattle for our wedding. Thank you, Ben!

My husband and I were going back and forth on whether we wanted videography at our wedding, and I am so so glad we decided to go with stamper films! Firstly, they were affordable and fit in our budget. Even better, their style is documentary-like filming which we love! Looking at our videos now, it feels like an authentic, real, romantic view was captured. Yan Li was super easy to work with & everything went seamlessly. We felt very comfortable with him & his assistant, and they were so respectful of our photographer as well. Our wedding video makes me cry just thinking about it. Then I turn it on & I really start to cry— our vows overlayed on top of the footage, the scenery & details that were captured, & especially the emotion Stamper Films got on camera. 10/10 and if I ever needed videography again I would go to Stamper Films.

HEYYY! *waves hands* We are Leandra & Clinton Cunanan, owners and lead videographers of Food & Cake Wedding Films. We are huge advocates for doing exactly what you want on your wedding day. We had the most epic wedding of all time (ask us about it!), but we didn't hire a videographer. And now this why we do what we do. It's the best feeling knowing each one of our couples will be able to relive their wedding day for the rest of their lives. We didn't have that, and now we get to give that to you!

I am so blown away by not only the quality of Clint and Leandra's work as videographers, but also what wonderful people they are! Not even halfway through our first zoom with them to talk about what packages they offer and our vision for the day I knew they were the perfect fit for us! Being with them on the wedding day felt like hanging out with old friends, they were amazing at blending in to the crowd to capture candid moments while also giving us prompts that created some of our favorite memories of the day. They worked so well with our other vendors and I don't think our day would have been complete without them. They are masters at what they do, and also the perfect people to have during a busy and, at times, stressful day (Leandra was able to bussle my dress when no one else could get the loop on the buttons AND snagged me some appetizers when I was resting my feet after the receiving line, she was a lifesaver!) My husband and I both teared up watching our trailer and highlight reel, and then happy cried getting to see our whole ceremony, private vows, speeches, and first dances. I know this is footage we’ll be so happy to look back on in the years to come, not just of my husband and I but of our whole families as well! I'm so happy we found Food Cake, you will not regret hiring this fantastic couple!

Avery Films

  • Serves Los Olivos, CA for additional fees

Wedding videographers record live events while cinematographers and wedding filmmakers focus on telling a story through beautiful motion pictures, captivating dialogue, immersive sound design, and emotion. Our films strike the perfect balance of all aspects that make a wedding great. The emotional moments that move you to tears, even while watching a strangers wedding film, the humorous moments to lighten the mood, and the high-energy entertainment that is so often under-represented in your run-of-the-mill wedding film.

We had our wedding filmed by Avery films and it was one of the best decisions I had made for our wedding. The day flew by, emotions were high and it seemed to be a beautiful, chaotic whirlwind that ended in the blink of an eye… but looking back at the moments captured and the way they turned our day into something you would see on television is just something I’ll never get over. I can relive that magic for the rest of my life! We can show our kids, our grandkids… open a bottle of wine and rewatch for date night. Special thanks to Mike who made it all happen flawlessly. We appreciate you and highly recommend your work!!
