About
8 Kinds of Smiles offers wedding videography services. We're based in Orange County & Los Angeles in Southern California and are also available for travel.
The goal of 8 Kinds of Smiles is to move beyond simple event documentation and to truly capture the emotion, energy, and personality of the event and couple. The special events of our lives should not be simply documented by a camera sitting on a tripod but captured in a way that truly instills the emotion and energy of the event and its participants in the final video piece. This is truly the spirit of 8 Kinds of Smiles and why it exists.

Reviews of 8 Kinds of Smiles
5 stars!
From the early morning preparations until the very last dance of the night, Travis and Mai were by our sides capturing every single moment. They both made us feel completely comfortable in front of the lens. We were so impressed by their stamina and passion; they truly spent the entire day with us, ensuring not a single memory was missed. They managed to be everywhere at once while remaining completely unobtrusive.
What truly sets Travis apart, however, is his commitment to the final product. It was clear that he took his time editing our highlight video, treating it like a piece of art rather than just a project to rush through. Every transition, song choice, and clip was perfectly timed and intentional.
The wait was 100% worth it to receive a film that feels so polished and personal. You can tell he put a lot of heart into the post-production process to make sure the story of our day was told perfectly. If you want a videographer who is hardworking on the day and meticulous in the studio, look no further! C+M 10.18.25
Beautiful Videos!
Amazing Wedding Videographer!
February 2024 Wedding
One of the many reasons we were thrilled with our choice was the bonus of Travis being a licensed drone pilot, which allowed us to have a breathtaking aerial view of our reception venue. But what truly blew us away was the quality of the video reel. The results exceeded our expectations! Travis and Anna's support for over 10 hours was admirable, and their meticulous attention to the finest details throughout the day was evident in the final product. The video was nothing short of stunning, and they beautifully captured all our special moments and emotions. We took a week after the wedding to record our personal vows since we ran out of time during the wedding day, but they reminded us to send the file and incorporated into the video beautifully! I wholeheartedly recommend 8 Kinds of Smiles as Cinematic Wedding Storytellers to couples in search of a dedicated and talented professional to immortalize their wedding day.
Our Memorable Day Highlighted!
I would definitely recommend these two to capture all the wedding moments for you.
Reliving our best day with 8 kinds of smile
Nothing but positive energy and a good time with Travis and Anna! Our wedding planner recommended many videographers, but we fell in love with the work of 8 kinds of smile. What stood out from the start was his video skill and style, the ability to capture the happiest of moments, telling a love story in short snippets. Travis was so friendly and easy to work with, he was organized and responsive to our emails, and we felt we were in good hands from start to finish! We felt so comfortable in front of the camera with Travis and Anna. He gave good suggestions and pointers on things to do for content, and we put full trust in him and followed his lead, and when we saw the final product, we were blown away!
He arrived day of our wedding with such positive energy!! He directed us through the process. We expected our video to be good, but when we saw it, we were over the moon! The video was delivered to us in such timely manner, we didn’t even expect to get it back so soon. It’s truly been an honor working with 8 kinds of smile, and we are beyond grateful for choosing Travis and his team to help capture our perfect day.
Thank you for the memories, 8 Kinds of Smile!!!!
Simply Incredible
The quality of their work was apparent in every part our wedding. Even our photographer had nothing but positive things to say about them. They were very accommodating to our bridal party and guests, always offering to take pictures for them and overall just being pleasant people to be around. It was easy to feel natural around them since they are cool people to just shoot the breeze with.
They were quick to produce our final video which has been shared profusely to our friends and family. They captured our the essence of our special day and now we get to relive it as often as we want.
I would easily recommend them to anyone looking for any videography needs and would give more stars if possible.
We love 8 Kinds of Smiles!
Amazing service and experience.
Highly recommend
In terms of quality, we're just amazed at the final product that he delivered. We got the extended cut and added the highlight reel last minute. I HIGHLY recommend the highlight reel. We didn't think we needed one with the extended cut, but Travis did such an amazing job that we're SOOO happy we decided to add it on.
I also cannot overstate how professional Travis was through the whole process: he provided detailed information about the packages, gave us timelines for delivering the final product and payment schedules, and sent us proofs to look over to make sure we're satisfied. Every communication he sent was clear and concise and all my questions were always answered in detail.
Thank you Travis for helping capture our special day!
