You don't need to look any further for a wedding videographer!

My husband and I are thrilled to recommend Hessler as an exceptional wedding videographer! On our special day, he showed impeccable attention to detail, seamlessly collaborating with our photographer to capture every precious moment.
Hessler's dedication went beyond the wedding day, as he graciously accommodated our requests and patiently addressed our queries before and after our wedding. His flexibility and understanding allowed us to bring our vision to life, particularly with the highlight reel, which exceeded our expectations.
We admired Hessler's professional demeanor and warm approach throughout the entire experience. The final products left us overjoyed! His exceptional skills, creativity, and customer-centric approach makes him an outstanding choice for any couple looking for a wedding videographer. Thank you for all of your help Hessler!

Beyond Cinema and Hessler for the win!

Before our wedding we considered only doing photos and not video. We're so glad we decided to hire Beyond Cinema for video! Within a week, I think I've re-watched the highlight video at least 20 times. When I meet new people or see old friends, I show the video to them. When I'm happy and wanting to smile, or sad and needing a pickup, I re-watch our wedding videos.

The crew exceeded all expectations. They captured the eccentric vibe of our wedding, which was a tough feat given the desert conditions, lighting, and funkiness of our venue. Hessler's professionalism, creativity, and ability to get every angle are truly remarkable. We cannot recommend Beyond Cinema enough! Thanks for helping us remember this moment forever!

So grateful we found Beyond Cinema!

Hessler with Beyond Cinema captured the magic of our wedding day in a way that exceeded all expectations. He captured the funkiness of our unique venue, leaned into the vibe we created, and captured more footage that I could have imagined. We've watched our highlight reel nearly 10 times already! His professionalism, creativity, and ability to get every angle are truly remarkable. We cannot recommend Beyond Cinema enough! Thank you, Hessler, for helping us remember this moment so beautifully forever.

So pleased with our amazing video!

Throughout the wedding planning process, we struggled to find a wedding videographer who would be a great fit… that was until we came across Hessler and Beyond Cinema! Upon booking, we were so impressed with how flexible, communicative, and professional he was.

Hessler was always prompt and responsive when it came to any questions we had leading up to our big day and following our wedding.

We are SO pleased with the results and forever thankful for his time and effort. We couldn’t have picked a better person to capture our special day and the videos truly highlighted that.

Blown away and grateful

Very high quality work. They were able to capture all the big moments and all the small ones. We hardly noticed they were there (which is a good thing). Very communicative and professional. We, like so many people, had to postpone our wedding due to COVID and they were extremely flexible and understanding. If you’re undecided on whether or not to hire a videographer, we recommend doing it and booking Beyond Cinema.

Beyond Amazing!

Hessler is very thoughtful, talented, and joy to work with.  Unfortunately we were one of "those" couples who had to postpone our wedding plans then decided to elope due to Covid.  We ended up doing a post wedding shoot and had him film us at Crystal Cove Beach.  I did a lot of preliminary research to find the best videographer and his portfolio stood out because of the quality of his work, storytelling, and editing style.  So I knew that I could entrust him with the artistic freedom to tell a good story for us.  We are so grateful for the opportunity to work with Hessler and we couldn’t be happier at how the video turned out.

Beautiful Workmanship!

Hessler was so fantastic for our wedding! He was very flexible when booking and so accommodating to us. Day of, Hessler was there early and you can tell he took great care in his work and getting the best angles/shots. In all honestly, we barely noticed he was there filming which made our video even better because it was so much more natural. Our final product, was AMAZING. We really did not know what to expect.. and Hessler blew it out of the water. Hessler really put effort into his work and included so many tiny details that we didn't even know happened at our wedding. Our video was beautiful and we are so grateful for Hessler's work. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Beyond Cinema

Beyond Cinema (Hessler) is beyond amazing. The entire process was easy and pleasant. Hessler was such a professional on our wedding day. He you can tell he a perfectionist and enjoys what he does. Prices are probably the best you cand find for your wedding. Everyone that saw our video enjoyed his work said they never seen anything like it. My wife and I were thrilled with our video. I'm actually going to hire Beyond Cinema to do my friend wedding. You can see his video for my wedding here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJ7a4uXYhGY

Hollywood Quality!

I truly cannot express my thankfulness enough for Hessler’s professionalism, patience, and talent throughout the planning process and on my July 2018 wedding day!!
My husband and I cannot believe how beautiful and professional our videos are. We feel like Hollywood celebrities! Hessler also made me feel like a celebrity on my wedding day. My mom and maid of honor noticed how remarkably quiet and inconspicuous he was throughout the ceremony and reception. Now that we’ve seen the finished product, it feels amazing to note how he was able to capture all of the most memorable moments. I also feel grateful for the way he gracefully edited out any awkward moments or guest indescretions!
My family attended a wedding las weekend (Oct 13) and during the ceremony my brother whispered to me “I don’t remember your videography being that intrusive. These videographers are blocking the view from guests the whole time!” My maid of honor also felt surprised to see footage of me getting dressed in the Bride’s Room before our ceremony, because she genuinely did not notice that he was even in the room with us!
When I interviewed Hessler during our planning process and reviewed his sample videos on the Beyond Cinema website, I could tell that his work was studio-quality. He only does 8-12 weddings per year, I believe that is why he is capable of dedicating such high-quality craftsmanship to each couple.

Hessler was fantastic. He communicated very well throughout the process, while we were booking him for the date, while we were sharing details about the venue and times, etc. and on the day when we were talking about the types of things we wanted to capture. He knew just the right moments to engage and make suggestions on what we should do, and when to sit back and film, letting us go about our ceremony and the party afterwards. He couldn't not have been nicer, and the quality is great, especially for the price. We researched dozens of people when choosing a videographer and they were either not what we wanted at all, or really really expensive. Hessler/Beyond Cinema was perfect. Highly recommend!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
