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.

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 was truly amazing and elevated our wedding experience. The cocktails they provided for our backyard rehearsal dinner were incredible I'm still dreaming about the spicy margarita! They went above and beyond to ensure our event was a success, and their attention to detail was amazing. From start to finish, they were professional, responsive, and a pleasure to work with. We cannot recommend Kismet Bar highly enough for any couple looking to take their wedding or event to the next level with exceptional bar services and beverages.

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
We approached Rebecca for her photojournalistic photography, something we explicitly wanted in our wedding because we wanted those natural moments captured without looking awkward, and she astonished us by capturing so many sentimental and hilarious parts throughout our wedding. From framing to editing, the photos turned out fantastic and we love them so much! You can see raw emotion, joy, and amazement throughout them. She truly captured the feelings of the day without making us feel overly posed and orchestrated; she made it all feel natural and sometimes even seemed to disappear out of sight (although the photos prove she was there all along). She truly is an artist! We also appreciated Rebecca and Stephanie getting onto the dance floor and grooving with us while capturing hilarious moments. We highly recommend Rebecca if you want authentic, beautiful photos from someone who understands how to include cultural and personal values in your special event!

THE GOLD COLLECTIVE 

5.0

South Pasadena, CA
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $16,000

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 LOVE working with Ivy. I sifted through what felt like 50 wedding photographers and came out completely defeated because while they were talented, their photos didn't capture what I was hoping to remember looking back at my wedding day photos. Then I randomly found Ivy and she easily is the best thing I've ever found on Google, no joke, hahah. Her style of photography and approaching our wedding day allowed us to still take the traditional family portraits, but honestly, I hardly look back on those compared to how much I fawn over all of the other photos of the day/night that she took. They look straight from a magazine and Ivy made it so easy to be comfortable and completely trust that she would give us incredible photos, which she totally did. I seriously can't recommend Ivy enough. I actually still keep in touch with her because she's so talented and we collaborate often! (:

Flores de Bosquez was founded in 2017 by Marisa Bosquez-White. 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. We work in a naturalistic style, allowing nature dictate the design. We choose the most exquisite materials with an emphasis on seasonal, local and foraged botanicals. Marisa is drawn to the unusual and strange, working with botanic materials deemed imperfect or odd and mixing them with more traditionally “beautiful” florals to create a look that is wholly her own.

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.

We hired Rob from Second Song. From the very first call with my husband and I, he took the time to really hear our needs and what we envisioned. Throughout the planning process, Second Song was extremely organized with a portal and made it an exceptional experience for me and my husband to easily input our information for every detail from pre-ceremony music vision and vibes, to walking down the aisle with specific songs, to making the grand entrances exceptionally special, fun, and memorable, all of the announcements, to every detail with speeches and first dances. It really set such an ease knowing every detail was accounted for. Our DJ, Rob, delivered on every single detail we asked for and more. We all had such a fun time dancing, and Second Song truly made it a 10/10 experience in terms of the music/sound experience. If you are looking for an amazing DJ/MC service for your wedding or event, we cannot recommend Rob and Second Song enough.

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
  • Classic style

  • 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 can’t say enough great things about Randall! Our journey with him started when he captured our surprise proposal, and from that moment, we knew he was the perfect photographer for us. He also did our engagement photos, and when it came time to choose a wedding photographer, it was an easy decision—it just felt right to have him document another milestone in our lives. Randall is not only incredibly talented, but he also made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. His style perfectly captures who we are, and we love how natural and authentic his photos feel. He was also so accommodating, even when we made last-minute changes to our engagement shoot location. We are beyond grateful for the beautiful moments he captured, and we know that when the time comes for future milestones, Randall will be our go-to photographer. Highly recommend!

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough good things about Gabby and Claudio Cakes! I found Gabby on Zola while planning our 120-person wedding. Though I reached out to other bakers, Gabby stood out with her variety of items, designs, and services. I am an indecisive person, so when I contacted Gabby, we only had a rough idea of what we wanted: a small cake and a dessert table. Gabby’s excellent communication skills helped us find exactly what we didn’t even know we wanted. She took our vague ideas and brought them to life with her creativity. Gabby met with us for a tasting, where we got to try an impressive selection of cake combinations. From what I recall, she offered more choices than any other baker we considered. While we aren’t typically cake people, every single thing we tasted was absolutely delicious. Our wedding was in Ventura County, and Gabby was able to provide delivery from LA. Our wedding started later than usual, and Gabby was flexible with a later delivery time, which was a huge help since our wedding was outdoors—we didn’t want desserts melting before the reception started. Even our coordinator mentioned how great this was since it’s not a standard service. In the end, we ordered around 19 dozen assorted pastries and a small cake for photos. The desserts were such a hit that they were gone almost immediately, and even months later, guests are still talking about how amazing everything was. Some even mentioned being disappointed they didn’t get to try anything because the treats disappeared so quickly. Throughout the whole process, Gabby was professional, knowledgeable, and communicated flawlessly. I truly wish all my vendors were as amazing as her. I highly, highly recommend Gabby, and I’m just waiting for another event to work with her again. Thank you so much, Gabby, for making our day so dreamy!

Can't say enough about the quality of James's work, his attention to detail, his professionalism, and curating the best dance party experience at our wedding!! From start to finish he was extremely prepared and provided us with all the materials needed to organize the music and run of show. As both DJ and MC, James truly went the extra mile to make our day run seamlessly, and made us feel so special. He was even accommodating to our last minute music requests and was very patient with us. In addition to being extremely professional, prepared, and organized, he is such a down-to-earth and kind, genuine person. He even captured some videos of our first dance and grand entrance that we wouldn't have had otherwise because we didn't have a videographer. This was so thoughtful and truly above and beyond! We personally added on the photo booth option and are glad we did, as it was a hit. His rates were very reasonable as well especially for the package we got. Everyone raved about James and the music. He made our wedding day exactly the party we hoped for - the most fun we've ever had! Highly recommend James & All The Above Events for your next wedding or big event.

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!!

Can’t overstate what an incredible experience we had with the Oviatt. Not only was the venue perfect for wedding, but the staff truly made the entire planning and day-of experience so smooth and welcoming. The space is gorgeous and one-of-a-kind - we didn’t have to decorate at all, there were so many little spaces and pockets guests to explore and mingle in, all the original art deco decor and furnishings were so cool. We didn’t have to add anything (but could have brought in outside rentals and vendors if we wanted) - the venue rental includes seating for the ceremony and reception, the rooftop lounge was fully furnished was lounge furniture, the terrace is already decorated with bistro lighting, twinkle lights and ivy walls, and there is lounge seating throughout the indoor space. Also included were cocktail tables, easels for signage, tables for our buffet set up. All of these things at other venues we looked at were either additional costs or we’d have to bring in additional vendors to supply. What really made the experience though was the Oviatt staff - Lindsey and Gabe are both so friendly, approachable, welcoming and supportive. Other venues we looked at were all business, had a “take it or leave it” vibe and kind of made us feel like we should be grateful for even to be given the chance to have an event there; Lindsey and Gabe were the exact opposite - they weren’t just trying to rent out a space, they were helping us host our wedding and doing everything they could to make sure our plans were realized. They provided us with so much information beyond what was required of them - they had a whole packet with a suggested timeline for planning, a Planning Pod tool that enabled us to track our vendors and plan out our floorplans and seating charts, lists of vendors we needed to consider and decisions we needed to make. Gabe had an actual meeting with us to discuss what we were looking for in a venue and our wedding, and have is all of this information we even booked the space. Lindsey followed up with us periodically in the months leading up to the wedding to remind us of what we needed to be taking care of and making sure we were on track. Both of them were always generous with their time answering our many questions and being flexible in accommodating our requests. We felt so supported and cared for throughout the entire process, and felt more like we had friends in our corner than like we were coordinating with a vendor. Truly cannot say enough about how wonderful this team is and how appreciative we are. We looked at practically every venue in the downtown/northeast LA area, and this one not only blew away the competition in what they offered, but it was also the most affordable option! It’s really like having the efficiency of an all-inclusive venue without the restrictions. And of course all of our guests loved it - we are still getting comments on how unique and beautiful the space was, and how much everyone enjoyed having so many different spaces to explore and congregate throughout the evening. Best decision we could have made.

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
The Moon Units were the best part of our dreamy desert wedding! If it wasn’t an open, outdoor wedding they would’ve torn off the roof (while respecting local sound ordinances, of course.) They have such a deep catalog of hits and did a great job balancing the set list between bangers that appealed to guests who came to dance and those who were a little bit shy. They kept the energy level over the top from cocktail hour through a windy night that would have sent many vendors packing up. The wind knocked the venue power out halfway through the set, and they didn’t miss a beat while the venue got generators online for their electric amps. They kept the party going into the night, and looked like they were having as much fun as we were, despite falling amps and heat lamps! The guests were raving about them: - ‘I felt like I was back in high school, dancing with reckless abandon!’ - ‘ I have never seen my parents dance, but they didn’t leave the dance floor’ They couldn’t have been nicer to work with, and we are thankful for their part in our perfect day!

Literally from the first interaction, Trey was thoroughly professional. We knew instantly that we'd be in good hands during the process, and he maintained through the big day. With Trey, we always had clarity over next steps, and we also got as much flexibility as we could ever hope for. 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. We felt like he "got" us while also filling in the gaps appropriately. A true professional, and we feel fortunate having him on the deck for our celebration.

From the start, I liked that their pricing is very transparent. It was easy to set up an initial zoom meeting, and it was very low pressure. Communication was excellent over email. Unfortunately, I don't remember the photographer's and videographer's names (sorry!) so I can't shout them out, but they were so professional and communicated well with my coordinator and me. We have a large family, and I thought it was going to be a hot mess, but they handled everything well and were able to coordinate us for photos. I had guests afterward specifically tell me that they were so nice, so I'm glad everyone had a good impression of them. They are very punctual; the turnaround time was 3 weeks on the dot! My husband and I are also very pleased with the quality of work we received. Overall, a 10/10 experience from start to finish.

Anna was so great in helping me throughout the process of planning our wedding photos. The first time I met her I could tell that she genuinely loves weddings and understood the editorial concept I was aiming for. We worked together on a mood board and fulfilled the style on the day of. I loved the team she brought and their dynamic together. During the group photos they were very efficient in gathering the groups in a time crunch. The pictures turned out incredible! Thank you guys so much for putting us at ease and the lovely wedding photos that will live on forever!

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.
