Vows exchanged on the open lawn under a wildflower arch, the Topatopa Mountains standing green behind the whole wedding party, deep jewel-toned bridesmaids' dresses against all that grass.

01The Day

The way it felt.

Vows were exchanged on the open lawn under a wildflower arch, the Topatopa Mountains standing green behind the whole wedding party, deep jewel-toned bridesmaids' dresses against all that grass.

The officiant kept things loose and warm, and by the time Chris and Jocelyn turned to walk back up the aisle the whole crowd was already on its feet.

02Filming at Ojai Valley Inn

On Ojai Valley Inn.

Ojai Valley Inn sits inside the Ojai Valley with the Topatopa Mountains as a constant backdrop, green and dramatic in a way that is hard to find elsewhere in Southern California. The resort's open lawns give a ceremony real scale, and the surrounding mountains mean the wide shots do most of the work without needing much additional styling.

QWedding Film & Video, Answered
Do you film weddings at Ojai Valley Inn?

Yes. We've filmed at Ojai Valley Inn and know the property, from where the light is best to how the day moves from ceremony to reception. As a wedding videographer who works across California we plan the coverage around the venue itself, so the film feels specific to where you got married, not generic.

How much does a wedding videographer cost in Ojai?

Our wedding films range from $6,000 for The Moment to $10,000 for The Legacy, our most complete collection. Every collection includes a full cinematic wedding film plus a custom wedding website. You can see everything on our Collections page.

How soon do we get our wedding film?

Your full cinematic wedding film is delivered in about 8 to 12 weeks. Our two larger collections, The Portrait and The Legacy, also include a shorter teaser, delivered sooner so you have something to share while the full film is edited.

Is there a difference between a wedding film and a wedding video?

We'd say yes. A wedding video is a record of what happened. A wedding film is edited with intention, pacing, and your actual vows and speeches woven through it, so it plays more like a short film than a highlight reel. That's what we make.

Will we notice you during the day?

Barely, and that's the point. We film the day as it actually unfolds rather than staging it, staying close but out of the way, so you're present for your wedding instead of performing for a camera. Most couples tell us they forgot we were filming until they watched the film back.
