    Couldn't ask for more!

    I couldn't have asked for better people to work with for my wedding. The Brighter Lights team was prompt in all communication, fun to hang out with the day of our wedding, and the work they produced is just amazing! They captured all the little things I missed throughout the day, and I'm so happy we went with them!

    Incredible

    Brighter Lights Media is hands down the best videographer out there - they don't just capture the event, they capture the essence of the people getting married and their wedding films encapsulate the overall ambiance and culture of a weekend - not just the token clips of speeches and the vistas. When I watch my wedding film I'm back at my wedding - but the better version where I can be everywhere the whole time! They were accommodating, professional, respectful, non-intrusive - and even filled in for things that weren't under the job description like snapping my family photo in the sunset at the rehearsal dinner - doing a one-off edit for a video for my company - ridiculously kind generous individuals who enhance not just your wedding and memories of it but just great people I've had the good fortune of getting to know generally. We couldn't have had a better experience and couldn't recommend someone with higher regard or certainty!!

    Incredible!

    Kevin and the team were so great to work with for our February wedding. We communicated with Jack leading up to it, who made the process so smooth for us. The day of, Kevin was barely noticeable, yet somehow managed to capture the most beautiful footage of us and our family. Thank you so much!

    Best cinematographers in the game! Their films capture so much emotion and tell such a beautiful story. We’re still receiving compliments on how heartfelt our film was. Chris is very talented and passionate about his work. He made us feel very comfortable and after a while we forgot that the cameras were still rolling. It’s all about the memories and Chris captured all of them. Brighter lights media was worth every penny!

    Highly recommend!

    We had such a wonderful experience with Julian and Kevin. Kevin was very responsive, answered all our questions, and was easy to deal with. We received our highlight video recently from our wedding on 9/11/21, and it was absolutely amazing. Kevin did a fantastic job highlighting the day to it's core. We can't wait to see the entire 8 hrs! My husband and I have watched the video prob 100 times already. Highly recommend Brighter Lights Media!

    As a shy person, I was hesitant about having a videographer at our wedding, but I could not be happier that our wedding planner introduced us to Brighter Lights Media! They were professional from our very first meeting, and were understanding about my concerns. They were incredibly thorough and well prepared for the event. On our wedding day, they made us feel completely comfortable, were totally non intrusive, and were even fun to have around. Most importantly, the finished product is a masterpiece. They captured the day beautifully! I am so grateful that Brighter Lights Media was a part of our wedding, and cannot recommend them highly enough.

    My husband and I could not have been happier with our experience working with Christian and Chris at Brighter Lights Media for our Ipswich wedding last September.

    To be completely honest, we didn't even consider having our wedding filmed at first. It certainly was not in our budget, and I had seen people's wedding videos from years ago and really didn't have any interest in having our guests get microphones put in their faces, or watching awkward first dances filmed in their entirety...

    Then I saw what a modern, beautifully crafted wedding film by Brighter Lights looked like, and I was hooked! These guys are true artists and filmmakers - their films have beautiful transitions, perfectly coordinated music, and showcase the most gorgeous moments of your big day. Plus, no one even notices them filming, so they keep the vibe natural and won't make any of your guests feel uncomfortable.

    Needless to say, I sent an email, set up a Skype meeting, and we booked! The only thing I regret is not going for the longer version (we did the "Highlight") because it is just so good...I wish we had more to watch!

    My advice for people planning right now is to try their hardest to fit Brighter Lights into their budget. At the end of the day, the photos and film are what you'll be looking at for years to come, so if at all possible, hire this company before they're booked!

    My husband was hesitant to hire a videographer because he was nervous about how he would look on camera and that there would be someone in the way during the day. I convinced him to go for it because I was excited to have something to look back on and watch after all the planning that had gone in to it and relive moments I might have missed. After the wedding was over, he was amazed that he barely even noticed the cameras were there. Once we got the film we were blown away!! The feature captured the whole day, and the all the people that were there, in such a unique and fun way. We got to hear our ceremony again see the whole day. We shared it with all our friends and family and they were equally as impressed. We have watched it over and over again! It was such a pleasure to work with Christian, from the initial interviews and questions to get to know us to the wedding day and beyond, he was always easy to talk to and quick to respond. We only wish we had also had our rehearsal dinner taped too! We can't recommend him enough!

    Working with Christian was a pleasure, my wife and I aren't big about being in the spotlight and were cautious about having videocameras and cameras too present at the wedding but they did such a great job we never even knew they were there. Christian did a fantastic job making the whole process from start to finish easy and made an awesome video for us that was well worth it.

    I am not sure there are enough great words we can say about Brighter Lights Media. We had the unfortunate experience happen where our original cinematographer was injured in a horrible accident and ended up not being able to film our wedding with only 3 months notice. We contacted Christian at Brighter Lights Media and luckily he still had our date available. Within days, he had set up meetings with us to work on our timeline and to start brainstorming story telling ideas and locations. He was a true blessing. We are so lucky to have found him and are truly in awe of his final product!

    Christian brought professionalism up to a whole other level with his responsiveness, timeliness and knowledge in his profession. Both he and Chris are awesome human beings and we now consider them among our friends.

    It rained on our wedding day. Christian and Chris were prepared for the rain and remained completely calm and flexible with helping adjust our timeline and shooting locations. These guys are true cinematic geniuses. I felt completely at ease with them and knew that they had everything under control. The best compliment I can give these guys is that 90% of the time, I didn't even realize they were around. They help document your day in a natural and unimposing way.

    When we got our film, my mind was blown yet again. Christian and Chris were able to pick key moments out of our day and find a beautiful common theme among each part of our day. They blended over 10 hours of footage together to create a visual and cinematic masterpiece of our most favorite day.

    I can't count how many times I have already watched our film, and I can't wait for how many more times we will watch it together in our future. I recommend Brighter Lights Media to anyone who will listen to me. They were my absolute favorite vendor in the process.

    Superior product and experience

    Brighter Lights were an absolute pleasure to work with and we are so thankful for the wedding videos they produced for us. The team was easygoing, open and always readily available during the planning phase, and on the big day they coordinated seamlessly with our wedding planners and photographer. Our planners loved working with them as well and have gone on to recommend them for other couples. Of course the quality of their work is phenomenal, this is easy enough for you to see for yourself by seeing the examples on their website. Overall their superior quality and high emotional intelligence resulted in an incredible product that is near and dear to our hearts. I can't count how many times we've watched the "trailer" they produced for our wedding. I not only recommend Brighter Lights highly and without reservation, I can confidently say that you should just stop looking at other vendors for your video needs and just go with them. You won't be disappointed.

    Christian and Chris are not only incredibly talented, but they are such good guys and so easy to work with. They were able to beautifully capture the most important parts of our wedding day while remaining completely behind the scenes. My family and I were so happy with their work, my sister booked them for her wedding next year! A must hire!

    We hired Brighter Lights Media for our Rehearsal Dinner and Reception for our October Cape Cod wedding. I have nothing but great things to say about Christian and Chris. They are so, extremely talented and truly love what they do. And their features show it! They followed the photographers lead while still capturing unique video moments and were totally unobtrusive throughout the day. My husband and I were floored by the video. It not only captured the moments throughout the weekend but it also highlighted the story of us as a couple. Their team goes above and beyond video and really brings your story to life. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone!!! Certainly one of the best in the Boston area!

    Such a great experience that we'll have for the rest of our lives. Chris & Christian are two great guys that definitely know what they are doing! It's tough to do videography AND photography for a wedding budget, but MAKE IT WORK! We're so happy with our results and are thrilled to show others/recommend! AWESOME is how wonderful everything was! :)

    Birghter Lights Media was one of my favorite vendors to work with during the wedding planning process. Christian is so easy to work with. In addition to being very responsive he also really takes great care in each client. I never felt like I was one of 1,000s of brides or that he was a wedding video factory. He cared about every detail of us as a couple and went out of his way to get to know us and include personal details in the video. He didn't just create a video of our day, he told a story of us as a couple in a way that I could never even imagine. I have already recommended him to friends and I would urge all brides to book him now because I have no doubt that he will soon be famous and booking years in advance. I can not say enough good things about Brighter Lights.

    Excellent all around! Can't say enough good things about Chris and Christian, we are extremely happy. The same day edit they did for us was amazing, it was such a big hit with all the guests, and it really shows how talented these guys are. We would highly recommend this option for anyone considering it - we are so thrilled we did. Thanks guys!

    Our time with Brighter Lights Media began a little later in the wedding process. I had been furiously wedding planning and was becoming obsessed with wedding videos - I had to have one. Because it was so late in the game (and getting married on a weekend that is prime time in Massachusetts), I was concerned about finding the perfect videographer who understood what I was looking for. I talked with no less than 7 videographers and when I spoke with Christian, I knew that Brighter Lights Media really understood what I was looking for and I knew that they'd be able to make it perfect. They were able to make our date work for them and for that I'm forever grateful. Christian made time for us, worked for us, and answered every question we had along with educating us on the video process.
    On the day of the wedding, they showed up early and got right to work - I never had to worry or show them anything which is so important as you're trying to get ready yourself! Brighter Lights Media worked seamlessly with our photographers and other vendors. I barely even noticed them around the venue while prepping and during the ceremony/reception - they disappear.
    As for the video itself? I can't even put into words how gorgeous it is - I can't believe, at one point, I thought we could live without a wedding video. We've played the highlight film at least hundreds if not thousands of times. We've received a countless number compliments on it (even from people we don't know!) and everyone says "it's like a REAL movie" and that's because it really is. I can't believe that all our details and emotions were caught on camera; it was a special thing to be able to watch our wedding from the outside. There really are not enough positive things I can say how I truly feel about Brighter Lights Media and our wedding movie. Thank you guys, again!

    Brighter Lights Media is incredible!!! Their talent, professionalism, creativity, and personalities are amazing. They were so great to work with on our wedding day and we couldn't have asked for anything better. The film that they produced for us is phenomenal. It was personalized to us and reflects exactly what our wedding day was to us. We are beyond thankful and grateful for the work they did!! The feature film, speeches, ceremony and dances are beautfiful films that we get to have for the rest of our life. THANK YOU!!!

    Chris and Christian are the utmost example of professional, artistic and personable filmmakers. Christian responded to my emails with a swiftness, fielded any and all questions I had and did it all while putting me at ease. When we met with Christian to discuss details before our wedding he exuded excitement for his work and growing business. His passion for his work was evident and contagious!

    The day of our wedding Chris and Christian where unobtrusive; they seemed to glide through and around the hustle and bustle with ease. They were organized and professional but also allowed themselves to be inspired by their surroundings. And they are a complete blast to be around. Not only did they do their work well but they made our wedding day fun! At the end of the night I was sad to see them go! We had such fun working with them!

    When we received our trailer/highlight video I was bowled over with emotion. It's the perfect taste of your wedding while you wait for the feature length film to arrive. The feature length film arrived (a little early, even!) in a beautifully adorned box surrounded by yellow confetti, popcorn and candy to go along with our viewing!

    Watching our wedding video made my heart nearly burst. The venue was captured beautifully with gorgeous panning shots. Our emotion-filled first look, the exchange of our vows, the toasts, our first dance were all woven seamlessly into a flawless movie. How could that be MY wedding? It's like seeing yourself starring in the movie that is your life. The experience is unreal. The ability to relive our day in a stunningly artistic way is such a gift. Upon viewing, our families were left speechless, mouths agape and with tear-streaked cheeks.

    I couldn't speak more highly of Brighter Lights. Christian and Chris aren't just videographers; the are filmmakers. They are true artists who deftly craft extraordinary wedding films that will take your breath away. And you'll keep watching again and again.

    What can be said about the Brighter Lights team? They made all of our wedding video dreams come true! They were professionals to work with and we had so much fun with them at our ceremony. They fit right in. Our video has been on repeat since we got it and all of our friends and family agree they've never seen anything like it. We love watching our video now and know we'll love it even more 30 years from now!

    I cannot convey how incredibly happy we are with our decision to have Brighter Lights Media as our cinematographers! Christian, Chris and Ryan were amazing to work with - they definitely understand what couples are looking for! They enable you to relive the day perfectly from the little details to the sentimental parts to the fun atmosphere on the dance floor! They are professional, talented and fit right in to the crowd at the wedding. The compliments have been endless from our trailer to the feature film. We even had a viewing party for the feature film since our friends and family were so impressed with the trailer! We continue to recommend BLM to anyone and everyone! :)

    Choosing Brighter Lights Media was one of the best decisions we made surrounding our wedding. These guys are professional, courtesy, flexible, and incredibly responsive. Oh, and they also produce amazing work! I think what separates BLM from other groups is their thoughtfulness and attention to detail. They are proud of their work and seem to take a 'quality vs quantity' approach. As their client, we felt like we were the only couple they were working with the entire time. I would recommend them to any couple in need of a first-class videographer.

    We really enjoyed working with Brighter Lights Media. We loved both our wedding trailer and video Not only were they very easy to work with, but they were very relaxed on the wedding day, which was so nice to see when everyone else was all stressed out. Chris and Chris were extremely professional throughout the process and their turn around of how quickly we got the video was CRAZY fast!

    We wanted to add an addendum about 10 months after our wedding date! Honestly, my husband and I were not even sure if we initially wanted wedding videography, but now we think it was one of the best wedding day decisions we made! BLM really captured the moment and feel of our wedding without us even noticing them. We HIGHLY recommend BLM (Chris and Chris) and we are forever grateful that we have amazing videos which we can watch today to remember that special day.

    It was a JOY having the Brighter Lights Media team with us on our wedding day! Christian, Chris and Ryan could not have been more professional, or more of a delight to be around. They were respectful, unobtrusive and down-to-earth.

    From start to finish, working with Christian and team was great: they were incredibly responsive in advance of the wedding, fun to work/hang out with during the wedding, and speedy with editing/production afterward.

    Our film could not have been in better hands - the trailer and feature length film consistently made people cry, or wish they were back at the wedding weekend, or both. It didn't just document the weekend, it captured all the incredible feelings of joy, happiness and love that we all experienced.

    THANK YOU Brighter Lights Media for completely changing our perspective on wedding videography. It truly is an art, and you guys are terrific artists and professionals.
