Keshiia & Kevin
A working winery in the hills behind San Diego, and a reception that ran late. Sound on.
After the vines.
Keshiia and Kevin were married at Milagro Farm Winery, out in the hills of Ramona in San Diego County, well inland from the coast and far enough out that the sky goes properly dark after dinner.
The film leans on the evening. Once the sun is off the vines the property turns to lamplight and string light, and the last third of their day plays out warm and close and unhurried.
Notes on the light.
Milagro sits in the Ramona valley, which is inland San Diego County: hotter through the middle of the day than the coast and considerably darker at night, because there is very little ambient light out there to lift the shadows. That combination shapes how we shoot a wedding here. We keep the daytime coverage in the shade of the oaks and the barrel room, and we plan the reception around the property's own lighting, because once the sun is gone the string lights are genuinely all you have.
Do you film weddings at Milagro Farm Winery?
Yes. Keshiia and Kevin'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.
