Extraordinary Event Video & Photo 

5.0

South Pasadena, CA
  • Videographer
  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $1,250

My documentary filmmaking journey has taken me around the country and to Central America. I have a Master's in Visual Anthropology from USC and am professionally trained to adapt to any and every situation I encounter. I am technically skilled, artistically inclined, and most of all, possessed of a remarkable empathy that enables me to capture the human essence of every couple I encounter.

Steve Grossman was my videographer when I made my debut as an orchestra conductor at Royce Hall two Christmases ago. He arrived on time, neatly groomed and professionally dressed, and recorded my segment flawlessly. Steve is one of those rare people who under-promise and over-deliver. When I saw the finished product, I was genuinely blown away—the editing was Oscar-worthy. He went above and beyond the call of duty, and along the way became a friend. Steve is an exceptionally talented professional, a great guy, and someone I recommend without hesitation.

Kismet Bar

South Pasadena, CA
  • Bar services & beverages
  • Starts at $315

I have been bartending for 10 years and started my company december 2019... yes right before the pandemic! Luckily for me, it worked out in my favor. From Concerts, Jimmy Kimmel, Private Events, Weddings and Birthdays, I have managed every type of event.

Kismet Bar provided excellent bar services and beverages for our wedding. Their communication style was very clear and informative, making the planning process easy. On the day of the wedding, they arrived early to set up and were fast with drinks, accommodating any special requests from our guests. Aerie, the bartender, made the bar service seamless so we didn't have to worry about a thing. They contributed greatly to making our special day memorable. I am already planning to hire Kismet Bar again for my big birthday party next year.

Rebecca y Las Otras 

5.0

South Pasadena, CA
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style

I am a documentary wedding photographer -- I'm all about capturing real moments. In my photographs, I’m always shooting with an eye for color, light, and dynamic shadows. I integrate these technical aspects with my background in film, literature and storytelling so with every wedding, I create a series of documentary photos that recreates the authentic narrative of a day. I’m always chasing the candid, the emotional, even the un-noticed everyday details; things that make you do a double take, little moments that make your heart swell.

Awarded Best of Zola
I showed my best friend some of Rebecca’s work when we were searching for photographers and she marveled that the folks in Rebecca’s photos “feel so much more like real people than other shoots like this.” That precisely captures Rebecca’s work + energy and confirmed our decision to work with her! We worked with Rebecca for our elopement ceremony and our tea ceremony and it was truly a special experience. Rebecca made an huge effort to know and support us as a couple before the event, which helped us trust that she would be there to capture all the right moments and then some! Our family and friends all loved her and we got many questions about how we knew her and if she was a friend of ours (she is now!); this really speaks to her kind, open, and genuine presence. She moved the event along while also treating everyone with respect and compassion. We already knew that her work was incredible and we couldn’t be happier with our own results. We cannot recommend Rebecca enough! You’ll get beautiful, soulful photos and the chance to have an amazing human in your life if you book her!

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style

Authentic, timeless, essence, natural, and candid are the most significant narratives when capturing a wedding day and are always at the center of the brand's heart. We love natural light, a strong action-stopping camera flash, capturing enchanting couples with inventive dance moves, making new friends, a flowing champagne tower, and a heartfelt toast.

I adored working with the The Gold Collective team! Overall, Ivy provided a calming presence to the wedding day. She provided a fun energy for the bride and guests, so they felt comfortable in front of the camera. And as a planner, I felt at ease as communication was easy and thorough during the planning process and on the wedding day allowing for a structured day so we can get the best photos possible for everyone. In the end, she was able to capture beautiful portraits, thoughtful details of the day, and timeless candids.

Based in Los Angeles, Flores de Bosquez offers florals for weddings & events, botanical styling for editorial projects and custom deliveries. Flores de Bosquez is known for our distinct aesthetic.

I recommend Marissa and her floral studio to all of my couples that are in or traveling from the LA. You can feel the love and attention to detail that she puts into every arrangement. I am in love with every one of her designs. Each are truly unique; thoughtfully and artistically composed and one of a kind. Exactly what every couple needs to breathe in on their special day. She's a delightful artist that genuinely cares about her work with her clients. Highly recommend your arrangements with Flores de Bosquez.

I am so happy to write a review for Seth and his team! From the very beginning, Seth has been a pleasure to work with. The first meeting I was very impressed by how he had researched the wedding venue and its layout so that he could ask us what our thoughts were on setup/DJ location placement etc. Our second meeting was then focused on how to set up the wedding playlist using the Vibo app. The app is fantastic, and an excellent way to keep track of the songs you wish to have played at certain time points (bridal processional, grand entrance, pre-ceremony, etc.). In the app you can request starting timepoints and leave extra notes for Seth to look over weeks before the wedding. Aside from these aspects, Seth went above and beyond to help us with other non-music related aspects of the wedding such as our wedding slideshow (that he helped give us step by step instructions so that the quality of the slideshow would be good for when it was projected on the wall of venue). He also created a mashup for my husband to dance with his mom ("Dance with me" mixed with "Just Dance"; it was amazing!). Even during the week of the wedding, when I had a mini-freak out, he was so kind and understanding. In the end, I 100% recommend Seth (and Matt too! He was at the Photo Booth, and he was so kind and was ready to help folks if any technical help was needed)! Seth's team is professional, kind, and has great attention to detail; if you can, book DJ Seth and his team for your wedding!

Randall de Leon Photography

  • Photographer

  • Serves South Pasadena, CA

Photography has always been a lifelong passion of mine, I picked up my first camera as a gift from my dad when I was 14 years old. Never in a million years would I have thought that my lifelong hobby could eventually become my career. I focused on my future, working my way through college and grad school to achieve my license to practice, but a part of me realized that I wanted to pursue a career that allowed me to go on adventures and meet a lot of new people. So in 2019, I took that risk, changed my hours from full time to part time and put more focus on my photography. I booked my first gig later that year and have never looked back.

Awarded Best of Zola
We’ve been lucky to know and work with Randall for a few years. When we finally decided to make things “official” we knew we wanted someone that does great work, that we trust, and would make us feel comfortable. We wanted our day to feel like a relaxed family event and Randall helped with that and so much more. He suggested possible locations that would meet our dream event and times to maximize the best lighting for the area. Once we settled on the location and date, he maintained excellent communication in preparation to the event to properly flesh out the day’s timetable, day of logistics, and post. On the day of our wedding he expertly directed us and our families, using the natural lighting to capture the perfect shots. We would have been lost without him, especially since no one knew how to assist with bustling my dress. During our dinner reception he seamlessly directed restaurant staff to assist in transitioning between meals/dessert/toast for more amazing shots. After the wedding he kept us updated on next steps for our pictures. Randall is truly a gem and I would recommend him to anyone looking for someone special to capture their day.

I’m not even sure where to begin to describe how amazing Events by McKenna is at what they do!! McKenna is the most kind, helpful, and enthusiastic person to assist you during such an important time in your life. She made sure everything went perfectly on our wedding day and every day leading up to it! When we first started our wedding planning journey, we only knew where we wanted to have it, and due to the venue location not regularly being used for weddings, we needed to outsource vendors for everything. That's where McKenna came in and helped us out by hand-picking every vendor that she knew would provide the exact things we were looking for. From catering, florals, furniture rentals, DJ, and all the little details, she knew who would be perfect for the job and she was right about every single one! Every time we had a question or a crazy idea, she had an answer right away and she would do everything she could to make it happen. One thing that we were really hoping for was getting a disco ball above our dance floor, but since we were outdoors, it wasn’t looking promising. McKenna was the one who made sure that we got our disco ball, and it was absolutely perfect! That’s just one example of the many ways McKenna ensured our dream wedding would become a reality. On the day of, McKenna and her team were so efficient and handled everything so that my husband and I could relax and focus on ourselves. We got to our venue and everything was already done and ready to start the day! McKenna was amazing at time management throughout the day, and she was so helpful to not only us, but our families, wedding party and guests as well. Everything went perfectly on schedule and all the crazy ideas that we had came to life with no issues! It was truly the best day of our lives and it wouldn’t have been possible without McKenna’s help! I could write so much more on how incredible Events by McKenna is, but to sum it all up, they are the best choice for your wedding planning and coordinating needs and you will not regret choosing them for your big day!!

Hi, we're The Moon Units! We're known throughout California for our 650+ song list, our authentic on-stage chemistry, and performances that clients have called "better than the original bands" that recorded the songs. And because we're a real band, we offer prices that are just a fraction of what corporate booking agencies charge. We can't wait to play for you!

Awarded Best of Zola
You will not find a better wedding band than The Moon Units! (and it's way better than a DJ, trust). We chose them because we heard them at our friends’ wedding, and it was the best wedding band we had ever heard. They played songs that weren’t the typical songs you always hear at weddings (and get bored/sick of), and they sounded EXACTLY like the original version of the song - incredible musicians and vocals. My now husband is a former professional musician, so the music at our wedding was extremely important to us, and we knew they were the only choice. From their communication throughout our planning, to their extensive song list, to the option for them to learn specials songs just for us (which they crushed), The Moon Units were nothing short of spectacular. They are also all very kind people, which is the cherry on top and makes such a difference on a wedding day!! They will also be playing at another friends’ upcoming wedding soon too (that’s how impressed everyone is with them). We had so many people come up to us after our wedding to tell us the music was the best out of any wedding they have been to, and everyone had so much fun dancing! 100/10

We had a slightly unusual (or, unconventional) ceremony in a couple of ways, and Trey handled every request without any issue. Lastly, and most importantly for a DJ, he nailed the music.

I’ve heard of Aladdin Films from my friend, who 2 months before the wedding couldn’t stop talking about their team and a wedding video her sister got from Aladdin Films. Of course, after such a review from my best friend, I had to consider Aladdin Films for my wedding day. But once I got on their website, their hyper-creative, beautifully done videos and fantastic photos didn’t leave me any choice other than contact them. And after talking to Iman about their services, he left me no choice other than hire them. His enthusiasm and creative approach to work was spectacular. But still, I was a little bit skeptical till the day of my wedding. But as soon as I met them in person, I was 100% sure that they will create a masterpiece. Words cannot describe how hardworking their team is. They came half an hour before the wedding to observe the place and create a plan on what, where, and when they will be doing certain things. Their service was on another level, but everything comes down to one thing. The result. It didn’t take them long to edit everything, and when we sat with the whole family on our couch to see the result. Everybody was in complete delight. We couldn’t stop laughing, crying, and wondering how they could take such a good shot. It seemed that they had not 3 but 10 cameras. Top-notch editing, perfect angles, and great sound design are just some of the characteristics of that video. And pictures can be displayed in the Louver. Their artistic retouching photos were so good, that we are going to print them on huge canvases and put them all on the walls of our house. We immediately send them out to all of our relatives and hurried them up to hire them ASAP because as they said, they often get booked up. We’ll definitely hire them again on all of our family events, and if you are a couple that is looking for a videographer & photographer to capture the best moments of your wedding day, look no further, Aladdin Films is an obvious choice.

The quality of their work was truly gorgeous - they captured me and my fiance beautifully and with meticulous attention to detail. It is clear they have a genuine passion for photography, and they went above and beyond to bring our Pinterest board to life. Their dedication to getting the perfect shot was evident in the stunning final photos we received. We are thrilled with the work Rivelle Media did for our engagement shoot and I highly recommend them to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.

Victoria and her team are an absolute pleasure to work with! They made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and were able to give us amazing advice on what they wanted to capture and always asked if we wanted anything more. Every conversation/consultation we had with Victoria, gave me the reassurance that Cruzio Studios was the right fit for us. She sent us a preview collection within 3 days of our wedding with amazing and stunning photos. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better to shoot our engagement and wedding. Thank you for everything and we definitely recommend choosing Cruzio Studios to capture your special event!

Lulan created our pre-wedding ceremony photos at Caesar's Palace and the Botanical Garden at the Bellagio. Lulan outdid himself on this day in 103-degree weather. He made me look like a 1960's Chanel model. He created whimsical photo moments and good lighting balance. Highly recommend Lulan. Wish I could relive the moment all over again.

I could not be happier with my experience working with Natasha at Dream Co. She served as the day-of coordinator for my wedding, and I truly cannot imagine the day without her support. Thanks to her thoughtful planning, I was able to simply show up, be present, and enjoy every moment with full confidence that Natasha had every detail under control. I trusted her completely, and she went above and beyond with thoughtful touches that made the day even more special. I wholeheartedly recommend working with Natasha and Dream Co.

Thank you to Dart Collective and or DJ Paul for the soundtrack to our perfect day. We had so much fun ahead of time filling out the survey and we loved listening to the mixes that are available on the website. On the day, we loved hearing how many of our choices were played during cocktail or dance hours. Paul was also great with some last minute changes for timing and adapting to how the guests spent the after dinner hours. Super happy with our music choice.

I'm a digital and film Wedding Photographer in Los Angeles, CA. I'm trilingual and multicultural -- and it's my favorite thing about me. I will travel Southern California for your love story, from San Diego to LA, to Santa Barbara. My style is documentary and photojournalistic with a bit of an editorial and creative charm. I do not bend and sway with the trends of the current day, instead I focus on your unique wedding day to capture timeless imagery. As the moments unfold before me, I will help tell your story. I want you to look back on your images and be able to still feel the emotions within them for decades to come, truly.

Fatima was wonderful to work with for our wedding. Even before we met, I could feel how much love she puts into her work and how much she cares about her couples. I love the warmth and depth of her editing style. She is extremely professional and organized. Both our engagement and wedding photos were ready within our agreed timeline as well as the sneak peaks. Fatima provided the perfect balance of direction and candid moments. We had so much fun posing for photos but she also captured our special quiet moments. We are sooo happy with her photography and highly recommend her for all engaged couples!
