Cook Captures 

5.0

  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Pasadena, CA

Hi there, I’m Caleb — but most people call me Cook. I’ve been behind the camera for over a decade, capturing weddings, events, and stories that matter. After spending nearly 13 years filming in the Southeast, I moved to California in 2012 to pursue a different path. But a few years ago I found myself drawn back to what I truly love: telling stories through film. That’s how Cook Captures was born.

Awarded Best of Zola
Caleb was incredible! He has such a great personality and instantly made us feel comfortable. He blended in so naturally that most of the time we didn’t even notice he was there, yet he captured everything perfectly. He truly felt like a comfort to us throughout the day. When little things came up, we even found ourselves turning to him for advice, it was like having an older brother by our side. We are so thankful we chose him and would highly recommend him to anyone!

Gui Bittencourt Photography

  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $2,200
  • Serves Pasadena, CA

Hi! I’m Gui — a multicultural wedding photographer and videographer based in Los Angeles, CA. My passion for photography began in childhood, playing with my grandmother’s old film camera in Brazil. For over seven years, I’ve been documenting and celebrating love stories across Southern California. My style is natural, colorful, vibrant, and candid. I believe every couple deserves to feel seen and celebrated, no matter their background or style of wedding. My approach is calm, creative, and personal — focused on capturing real emotions, spontaneous laughter, and the quiet in-between moments that make your day unforgettable.

Awarded Best of Zola
Discovery & Initial Communication I learned about Gui’s services through word of mouth. A friend highly recommended him after hiring him for her son’s birthday party. Based on her glowing review, I decided to hire him for my very intimate civil ceremony. My main goal was to have the event beautifully documented so we could share the final video with family and close friends. From the very start, communication with Gui was seamless. He was responsive, efficient, and incredibly patient when addressing my detailed inquiries. One aspect I truly appreciated was his initiative to schedule a pre-event video call. This gave him the opportunity to get to know us, understand our personalities, and discuss our expectations for the shoot. His willingness to listen and incorporate our ideas made the entire process feel collaborative and personal. Planning & Preparation One of the reasons I chose Gui was his ability to include a highlight reel in the video package—something I really wanted. During our meeting, he welcomed my ideas and suggestions for the final video, showing a genuine interest in delivering a product that reflected our vision. Gui’s level of preparation was impressive. He took the time to scout the courthouse and a nearby park beforehand, ensuring we had the best possible locations for our shoot. His preparedness and attention to detail gave me peace of mind leading up to the event. The Day of the Ceremony On the day of our civil ceremony, everything went smoothly. Gui greeted us warmly at the courthouse, immediately setting a positive and reassuring tone. His calm and easygoing demeanor helped ease my nerves—something I truly appreciated amidst the mix of adrenaline and excitement of the day. He captured moments effortlessly, allowing us to be present and enjoy our special day without feeling overly directed or staged. Final Thoughts & Recommendation Overall, I couldn’t be happier with Gui’s work. His professionalism, creativity, and dedication to capturing our special day exceeded my expectations. If you’re looking for a videographer who is not only talented but also personable and well-prepared, I highly recommend Gui. 10/10 – Would definitely hire him again!
