First Day Films is amazing!

We were so thrilled with our experience working with First Day Films and would recommend them in a heartbeat to anyone getting married. Amongst all of the craziness of wedding planning, finding the right vendors was one of the most difficult things. Once I spoke to John on the phone I was completely sold. He was extremely responsive, personable, and welcomed our input and feedback into the process.

Jimmy and Jason were amazing to work with on the day of our wedding. They were completely respectful and unobstrusive. Jason even helped carry my veil throughout Central Park while we got some shots! They were so lovely to work with.

One of the best things was seeing a preview video on Instagram only two days after our wedding! All of the videos and editing came out so wonderfully and our families were so happy with the result as well.

Thank you to John, Jimmy, and Jason for being so fantastic at what you do. We are so grateful and highly recommend hiring this team!

Look no further!!

John and his team are incredible!! He was the easiest vendor to work with throughout the wedding planning process. John was super responsive, professional and fun! My bridesmaids that didn’t get video for their weddings regret not hiring First Day Films, the end result was amazing and no one even realized I had a videographer!! He wasn’t intrusive yet captured the day so beautifully! He’s even worked with me to add more to my video package since it was just that good!! Thank you John!

Incredible Wedding Videographer

We worked with First Day Films for our wedding in May and cannot recommend them enough! John was so wonderful to work with and made the entire process extremely smooth. He and Daniel were also so great at making the experience of filming on our wedding day as comfortable and fun as possible! We absolutely adored our wedding film and how it captured the feel of our wedding day so well. While First Day Films was a bit more expensive than some of the other videographers we considered, it was extremely worth it for how high-quality the film was. The camera work and editing made it feel truly cinematic in the best possible way. We are so incredibly happy we chose First Day Films for our wedding!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

John is always a pleasure to work with. I never hesitate to recommend First Day Films to my clients. He is very friendly and works in a very unobtrusive manner all the while capturing all the special moments without you knowing he's there. If you are unsure about having a videographer at your wedding, you'll change your mind once you meet John and see his work. Sarma Ozols Sarma & Co. Photography

I can't say enough good things about John Miller Videography. He is the first on my list of recommended Videographers. He approaches the day unobtrusively and is able to catch every moment while it unfolds which allows me as a photographer to do the same. His final product is clean, natural, and absolutely stunning!
