01The Day

Against the ivy.

Hudson and Tiffany were married at Catalina View Gardens, and the frame we kept returning to is the one on the poster: the two of them against a stone wall under climbing ivy, her veil lifted. Stone holds shade well, which is why that wall is worth walking to.

The film runs four minutes and fifty-five seconds. Everything at this property happens outdoors, so the timeline carries more weight here than it does at a venue with a room to fall back on.

02Filming at Catalina View Gardens

Notes on the place.

Everything at this address happens outside, which sounds simple until the marine layer sits down on the hill and does not lift. We build a shot list that survives both versions of the day. Stone and shade are worth finding early, because they give you a soft, non-directional key without a bounce, which matters when the wind makes a bounce impractical. The vineyard rows read best from low and along the row, never across it. And the ocean will always want to be brighter than a face, so we expose for skin and let the water go where it goes.

QWedding Film & Video, Answered
Do you film weddings at Catalina View Gardens?

Yes. Hudson and Tiffany's wedding film was made there, and you can watch it on this site. Having filmed a place once means we already know how it behaves through the day rather than working it out on the morning.

How much does a wedding videographer cost?

Our collections run from $6,000 for The Moment to $10,000 for The Legacy, our most complete collection. Each one is a full cinematic wedding film of your day plus a custom wedding website. Everything is set out on our Collections page.

When do we get our wedding film?

About 8 to 12 weeks for the full film. The Portrait and The Legacy also include a shorter teaser, delivered sooner, so you have something to share while the main edit is still running.

Will we notice you during the day?

Barely. We film the day as it happens rather than staging it, staying close but out of the way. Most couples tell us afterwards that they forgot anyone was filming.
