Andrew H. Sent on 12/14/2023Fantastic experience with Christina so far!
We decided to strongly consider Christina and Filmman for our wedding because she had done an excellent job at my to-be-sister-in-law's wedding. She quickly confirmed that working with her was going to be a great experience. We'll update this review when our wedding date comes to pass, but for now we wanted to write a review just to emphasize how excellent Christina is to work with in the pre-contract and negotiation phase:
1. Professionalism: She is quick to reply, thorough in communication, kind in spirit, and committed to ensuring you are provided the package you need.
2. Better Packages: Moreover, compared to other videographers, it's our view that she has a more compelling offering. She has certain packages that offer long-form edits – providing (from what we saw with our family member's wedding) the best way to retain a significant amount of the big day in a quality, usable format.
3. Great Style: Finally, the short films that she creates are a lot more cinematic and story-oriented than most wedding films we've seen. Put another way, they tell a story more like what a filmmaker would do in a typical context, driven by voice-overs and compelling imagery – not following as much the classic wedding film tropes that can be a bit overwrought. -

Truly the best in the business, and the best possible team to capture our wedding day. Photography and videography were always a big priority for us, and we began our search for the perfect photography/videography team two years before our wedding. While I had researched and interviewed over 40 photographers, I hit the jackpot with Filmman Studios. They were one of the first videography teams I spoke to and immediately I knew they would be the people I wanted to hire. Christina was bubbly, sweet, fun, patient. As an added bonus, her and George both speak Mandarin and Cantonese — perfect for communicating with our wedding guests. Beyond their personalities, their films spoke for themselves, two words “cinematic masterpieces.” On top of that, their pricing was extremely reasonable.
On the day of, Christina and George showed up 1 hour early. Christina, just like she had been on the phone, was BURSTING with energy. She ran up to me, wrapping me in a big hug and I yelped out “wow it is so good to finally meet my wedding vendors!” My bridesmaids were confused, “You’ve never met her before? You guys seem like best friends.”
That sentiment held true for the rest of the day. Shooting with Christina and George really did feel like hanging out with great friends. They laughed at our TikTok video creations, danced with us on the dance floor, and handed my husband and I tissues when we could not stop crying at our first look. What was the most impressive was the way they were somehow able to both direct and encourage, all while allowing my husband and I to have (what felt like) very personal and private moments throughout the day.
Then, just 4 days after our wedding, I got a text from Christina saying our video was ready. My husband and I shakily opened the link and we were waterworks all over again. It was perfection — from the way it started with funny “blooper” scenes to the way it incorporated our vows and romantic shots. When we sent to our friends and family, no one could believe this video was made literally less than 100 hours after our wedding. Christina surprised us with beautiful drone shots, interviews with family and friends and the perfect shot of our first look which is and will be my most favorite memory of the day.
Christina and George, I can just tell how passionate you are about your jobs. You have created pure magic for us and our families. Thank you for being a part of our special day. -

Filmman Video is the absolute best wedding videographer you could ask for. From the moment we met Christina and George, we knew we were in good hands. They both were so professional, friendly, and easy to work with. Christina and George took the time to get to know us and our story, and really listened to our vision for our wedding video.
On our wedding day they blended in perfectly and captured all of the special moments without being intrusive. We didn't even notice them there most of the time!
When we received our wedding video, we were blown away. It was everything we had dreamed of and more. Every emotion and essence of our day was captured perfectly. We have watched our wedding video over and over again, and it brings us tears of joy every time.
We highly recommend Filmman Video to anyone looking for a wedding videographer. Christina and George are the best in the business! -

Chang H. Sent on 07/05/2023Amazing video, stress free experience!
We had SUCH a fantastic experience working with FilmmanVideo for our wedding last month and we had all our expectations exceeded today when we watched the wedding video. As someone who didn't have much direction of what I expected the video to be like, and as someone who felt somewhat awkward being filmed (regardless of what a great job they did making me feel comfortable) -- I was absolutely amazed at the wonderful job they did filming and editing the video.
Beyond the final product, I wanted to mention that it was a pleasure working with them in general. Christina was always quick to respond before the wedding, was full of ideas, and was very on time the day of the wedding. Both Christina and her team also brought such a cheerful spirit to the wedding day, and we're super grateful to have had them as part of our wedding team. -

Christina and George were amazing and so easy to work with! The turnover was fast and efficient that so many of my family were surprised! I'm so glad I found FilmmanVideo and have these amazing memories taken by them. I will always always always recommend this company to any of the future brides I know! I would love to work with them again for all future events! -

Best Vendor money can hire
THEY ARE SO CHEAPPPPPPP!!!!
That's what was going through my mind the entire time as I was watching our highlight video. (Oh and this is so, so, so, good)
Yup you heard it how much they charge is way, way, wayyyyyyyy too affordable for the value they deliver.
I'm an avid photo and videographer with pro gears. Yet, the shots Christina and her husband had throughout our entire 5 plus minutes of highlight video. I wouldn't even able to replicate a fraction of it! And the fraction I think I might be able to replicate I don't think I would have been able to done it in the fly like they did!
Not only did Christina and her husband's has some of the best, latest gears, (They have multiple A7sIII, which is fantastic under low lights!!!)
They were also super enthusiastic, funny, yet professional, and so so so so well versed in their craft.
They did not just capture my wedding but they captured the essence of it. When watching the video we feel as if we were there reliving every moment. And that my friend is something $$$ cannot buy.
Tip them generously because holy smoke what the hell. How are they so cheap?!?!! HOW ARE THEY SO CHEAP?!?!?!
Surpassed our expectation in everyway at an extremely affordable reasonable rate. We are so grateful to be able to find Filmman group because without them our wedding would have not been complete.
Oh yeah, and our wedding video just in case you want to see what all my fuss is about:

Christina and George were so wonderful to work with!! I was debating if I should get video for the wedding and like many of the reviewers below, am so glad we did! The day goes by so fast that you’re not able to remember much of it and it’s nice to be able to look back on the video and re-live the memories! Christina and George both speak mandarin and that was really helpful for us when we thought we would have our parents be a bigger part of the wedding, but decided against it!
They somehow got the feelings of the video just right for us and we can’t wait to show our family and friends! -

I found FilmmanVideo via WeddingWire and loved their work. I knew they were the ones to capture my wedding after viewing a few of their videos :)
FilmmanVideo's work is just absolutely beautiful and they make sure to capture all the important moments. My husband and I were so happy that we found Christina and her husband George to be part of our big day. Christina and George are seriously couple goals to work together seamlessly!
Communication with Christina was so easy and she always was super quick to respond to emails. Whether it was through email or text, she would always respond right away. Even though we did not give her much instructions on what to record for the wedding day, she was able to capture everything flawlessly. The wedding footage was even better than what we expected.
Christina was able to provide the highlight video via a Vimeo link and the rest of the wedding footage was sent via a USB stick. The USB was not just a normal USB; it was a wooden USB in a wooden box with their logo on it - very cute! My husband and I watched the videos and were amazed at the quality and effort that Filmman put into the editing.
We will be enjoying our wedding film for the years to come and can't wait to show our kiddos later on. Thank you Filmman for being a part of our special day. We appreciate you!
I highly recommend them if you are looking for a videographer :) -
