Evan & Kelly
A chuppah draped in a tallit and heavy with blush garden roses, and a golden hour walk out onto the ridge with the Simi hills going amber behind them.
The way it felt.
They were married under a chuppah wrapped in blush and cream garden roses, a tallit stretched overhead, the ranch lawn running out behind them toward the hills.
Portraits went up onto the ridge as the light dropped, dry golden hills folding away in every direction. That last hour on the high ground is the reason we push couples here to protect the time for it.
On Hummingbird Nest Ranch.
Hummingbird Nest Ranch is a Spanish Colonial estate on more than a hundred acres in Simi Valley, with sandstone boulder formations rising behind the property and dry golden hills in every direction. The scale is the point: ceremony lawns, a ridge for portraits, and stables and courtyards that all read differently on camera, so a single day can move through several completely distinct looks.
Do you film weddings at Hummingbird Nest Ranch?
Yes. We've filmed at Hummingbird Nest Ranch 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 Simi Valley?
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.
