Reviews of 15 Minutes of Frame Cinematography

Filmed video like ninjas, and edited like perfectionists

Kaipo, Mariana, and the team at 15 Minutes of Frame were wonderful! My husband and I were initially skeptical of having a videographer for fear that the crew would be intrusive and in our faces at the wedding. After some pleasant conversations, I was persuaded otherwise and am so glad I made the decision to capture my wedding on video.

Not only do I have all these live, videotaped memories, but the team was so stealth while filming, we hardly knew they were there. In fact, after the wedding my mom asked if they had filmed us getting ready (which was at my apartment). The answer was yes (of course!), but she didn't even notice them in our own home! After filming, Kaipo answered my many questions around editing options. He was patient and honest as I assessed what were the best options for me. The final product was just what we wanted, and will be something we can continue to watch over the years. 15 Minutes of Frame turned this initially skeptical videographer customer around completely, and I could not recommend them more highly!

Brilliant Wedding Cinematographer!

We didn’t think we wanted to hire a videographer for our wedding—we didn’t like the style of a lot of wedding videos, didn’t want to feel we were “performing” on our wedding day, and didn’t want cameras interfering in the natural flow of the evening.

But after seeing our friend’s beautiful wedding video—and, better yet, having had no idea there was even anyone filming at her wedding at all because he was so unobtrusive—we knew we had to book her cinematographer, Kaipo from 15 Minutes of Frame. Kaipo is warm, genuine, attentive to detail, and a brilliant filmmaker. It was organized and seamless working with him in the lead-up to the wedding and after. It’s also great that there are various types of videos/edits at various price points (and that you can add or change what you select up to a year after your wedding!).

The video itself: stunning! We just received ours last night and cannot describe how amazing it was to relive our wedding through the beautiful footage. Kaipo really captured the feeling and spirit of our night, amazing details and gorgeous overviews and the emotion in all of our faces. He had some really unique shots (our dance floor from up above from the balcony, the sky and trees of our outdoor venue). The video was seamlessly and brilliantly edited. And his song matching was impeccable. We will treasure this video forever and cannot recommend anyone more highly to document your wedding day!

Kaipo and the entire 15 Minutes of Frame team were absolutely fantastic and such a pleasure to work with for our wedding at Liberty House! Kaipo and the team were so nice, personable and warm and made us feel so comfortable the entire day. They arrived early and even stayed a bit late just to make sure they captured everything on film. Kaipo has the best ideas and is so creative when it comes to capturing special moments and getting unique angles, scenery, details and moments on film. They even made an AMAZING instagram highlight video just a day after our wedding! Their work is so unique, special, creative, beautiful and classic. Kaipo was also so wonderful to work with throughout the entire planning process and worked so well with our other vendors to make sure everything was taken care of. I recommend Kaipo and the 15 Minutes of Frame team SO SO highly!!!!

For our wedding, we wanted lasting memories of the experience. But what we received from Kaipo and the team at 15 Minutes of Frame was so much more. We had interviewed other potential partners for our wedding experience along with 100’s of videos. They all followed a similar story telling flow of the day. Then we came across Kaipo’s work. It was fresh and it was different. What set it apart for us was the back story, or "b roll" of how we met and why we chose the venue. Kaipo understood our attention to detail and desire to personalize. He set up an additional shoot so we could tell him our story, how we met and why we chose the Central Park Boathouse. He also captured the spirit and essence of the entire day. The featurette he edited was wonderful and everything we were hoping it would be.

He took the time, made plans and covered all our needs. Costs were clear as were the options for added footage or chapters. We were so very happy to have 15 minutes of Frame cover our wedding. It made the memory of the day even more meaningful. Do place his team on your short list. You will not be disappointed.

We couldn't be happier with our decision to work with 15 Minutes of Frame for our wedding! We really wanted video footage of our day, but really did NOT want the feeling of paparazzi or crazy lights on the dance floor interrupting the flow of the evening, and Kaipo and his team struck this balance perfectly. Kaipo was attentive, timely, and diligent about what we wanted from the moment we first met with him, and he and his associate were nearly invisible as they caught all the important moments throughout the night. When we got our video edits, we were beyond thrilled, and cried A LOT :) It was clear how much thought they had put into everything, including the song choices. We will treasure these videos forever!

Kaipo and the team at 15 minutes of frame are the absolute best!!! We barely noticed they were there on the wedding day, which is exactly what we wanted, and we just saw our finished product - a 22 minute feature film - and are blown away! The video is so special and so sincere and not cheesy at all which was so important to us! It captures every emotion and every moment we want to see from our wedding. We literally can't stop smiling and crying while watching it. I don't know how they do it but they are SO talented and I can't recommend them highly enough!! Artistic genius is the only way to describe it. You need to hire 15 minutes of frame for your wedding!

We had the absolute pleasure of using Kaipo and his team at 15 Minutes of Frame as our wedding videographer on June 24th, 2017. Kaipo was extremely lovely, detailed and responsive throughout the entire process. He was always readily accessible to answer questions and give us further information. On the wedding day Julie and Mariana were our videographers. They were kind and polite and really took some wonderful, creative shots. After the wedding, Kaipo was very helpful in giving us information to aid in deciding on our video purchases. Even when we had some specific requests for the Feature Film, Kaipo was extremely kind and accommodating. We could not be happier with the outcome or recommend 15 Minutes of Frame highly enough!

Kaipo and his team were fantastic! Many people hesitate about getting a videographer because they're afraid it's going to feel like they're too close during special moments or "in people's faces". However, Kaipo and his team were perfect! You could not feel like they were right there and they were able to get amazing shots! They were also super friendly and helpful during the photo session before the ceremony where they were also able to get great shots. We love all the film footage that they took throughout the wedding, including some really fun dancing of our guests! We were also really happy with the short video teaser they made of our wedding. They added beautiful music and included wonderful footage of the day. We're extremely happy with the wedding footage they took that captured such a special moment in our lives.

15 Minutes of Frame is amazing! They were recommended to us by our photographer, and upon watching some of Kaipo's films, we knew we had to meet him. Our meeting with him made us feel so comfortable and we described what we wanted out of our film (which was to not feel like we were being filmed at all!) On the actual wedding day, Kaipo and his team make you feel so comfortable and you don't even notice you are being filmed. Plus, their style is unlike any of the overly dramatic and cheesy wedding films you sometimes see. They are there to capture the day as it unfolds and are pros at capturing the small moments. We ordered the highlight, the full feature, and all the raw footage. Even their raw footage is fantastic!! We couldn't be happier. Thank you, Kaipo!!!

Kaipo and his team were great!!! We heard about them through our friends who had used them for their wedding -- we knew from watching their wedding video that 15 Minutes of Frame knew how to capture the essence of a wedding perfectly. I was worried about being filmed during the day of the wedding, but they were so friendly and easy to work with, I forgot about feeling self-conscious. Some of our guests didn't even realize there were videographers! We ordered the highlights film and absolutely love watching it -- I also liked that we could order the videos a la carte after the wedding. It definitely helped with the wedding expenses. Thank you Kaipo!!
