Hands down…hiring Alenka Films is the best money I spent throughout the wedding planning process. I can’t say enough about how incredible Alena is! I honestly wasn’t sure that videography was in my budget even though it was something that I really wanted for my wedding. I did a search for local, female- owned videography businesses and found Alenka Films. I reached out to her about 2 weeks before my July wedding and got an immediate response. After speaking for a few minutes I knew she was a perfect fit! She was super flexible considering I didn’t know exactly what I wanted and told me that I would always have the option to add on more to the package after the big day. She was super professional and helpful on the day of the wedding and was able to capture so many special moments without my husband and I even noticing. Delivery of our videos was super prompt and we loved them so much that we ended up adding a longer documentary edit to our package which also turned out to be amazing. I loved working with Alena and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone to film their wedding or special event. Thank you Alena!!!

Awarded Best of Zola
Chad was so incredibly easy to work with and absolutely nailed our video. Chad made us feel so comfortable throughout the whole experience which was helpful because we were nervous we’d look stiff and awkward. The whole film perfectly captured our relationship from the shots, to the lighting to the music and we couldn’t be happier. We were also so grateful they stayed the full day since we had a long wedding timeline. If you’re looking for a videographer, go with Mist Moss!

Electric City Studios

I have been involved in the "arts" since I was a child. It wasn't until I graduated high school when I really started to pick up a camera. It stated with photography when a friend of mine asked me to take photos of him for instagram. From that point on it was addicting. I later met someone who was interested in hiring me to do videography for his wedding. Growing up I have always said that there isn't any project too big. So I took this challenge and kicked it in the butt. They were extremely pleased and that's what started the videography business.

Electric City Studios was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding video. From the very beginning, their communication was great, wonderful, and very quick - they were always available to answer any questions we had. The quality of their work was simply beautiful, and their staff was so lovely to work with. Brad and his team really brought great ideas and a special touch that helped make our wedding day even more special. They made my wedding party, family and friends feel so comfortable, and Brad was organized, easy to talk to, and had great ideas for poses. We are thrilled with the final product and would highly recommend Electric City Studios to any couple looking for an amazing wedding videographer.

We used Conner for our wedding on May 3, 2025. We were looking for a DJ and our photographer who had worked with him multiple times had recommended him…. Fast forward we found out he also did videography and we booked him for both- and we are so glad we did! He was so amazing, along with our photographer, they worked together so well and made sure we stayed on schedule and got all the moments captured we wanted. We almost didn’t go with videography but I’m so glad we decided to! He did such an amazing job with both the video and DJ. If we could do the day again, we would 100% have him again! He is so great to work with and so professional, I would recommend him to everyone! Thank you so much Conner for capturing the best day of our lives, the video was even better than we ever imagined. I hope we have the chance to work with you again in the future for another event. THANK YOU!!!!

Jonah Lorsung

  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves Canandaigua, NY for additional fees

Hi friends! My name is Jonah Lorsung and I'm a filmmaker, writer, and photographer born in the Midwest. Most of my free time is spent enjoying concerts, cruising the coast in my Japanese van, or getting lost in a new hobby (right now that's "de-Googling" my life). I'm currently based in Portland, OR and available for travel anywhere my camera may take me, continuing my pursuit of stories that pique my interest. Mostly love, good light, and the small moments that make life worth living.

I first saw Jonah’s work on instagram (he’s worked with my photographer and they make an amazing team!) and decided that if I did have a videographer, Jonah would be it. Jonah has an amazing eye for understated moments, and edits those moments together into a cinematic and emotionally charged film. Jonah was easy to communicate with, easy to plan with, and was a joy to have around on the day of our wedding. In addition to our long film and social media cut, Jonah also was able to give us our raw footage (we requested this, definitely ask if you want it but don’t expect it from a vendor!), which really highlighted to me how involved Jonah was throughout the day. Jonah’s work is the perfect combination of a fly on the wall and a friend on the dance floor. But my favorite part about Jonah’s work is that every film he makes is different and unique to that wedding. There is no stock image or typical layout, they’re all an individual reflection of that day. I could not recommend Jonah enough as a videographer. I’m so glad to have worked with him for our wedding, and to have supported a wonderful and talented person. The photos I’ve included are screenshots from our wedding film and may not reflect the quality of image, but do reflect the artistic quality of Jonah’s 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!

He was with us the whole night and didn't miss a moment. He really took the time to create a beautiful film for us to have as a memory of the day. Watching our video for the first time, he captured the day perfectly. We loved having Kip be apart of our day!!
