Amazing videographer

Dakotah was an absolute joy to work with from start to finish. He was incredibly easy to work with, communicated clearly and consistently, and made the entire process feel seamless and stress-free. He has an amazing eye for detail and captured so many moments we didn’t even realize were happening in the moment. His turnaround time was impressively quick, and we really appreciated that he provided all of the raw footage in addition to the final edit. Our wedding video is truly breathtaking and something we’ll treasure forever. We would highly recommend Dakotah to any couple looking for a videographer who is both talented and professional.

I love my wedding video!

It was super easy and stress free to work with Kota Video Productions. He was quick to respond, professional, and incredibly patient as we navigated the planning process. On the day of our wedding, Kota and our photographer worked seamlessly together to adapt the schedule as our wedding party fell behind in getting ready. Kota was very patient in working back and forth with me to create the beautiful and timeless highlight video I wanted. We were overall very happy with the quality of his work and the fair price we paid.

Amazing AND Professional!!

Dokatah was EXCELLENT! He was an absolute professional from the very beginning, and throughout all the craziness of our wedding day he was cool as a cucumber. He worked great with us and with our photographer, which we have heard is not always the case. And his work speaks for itself! Watch his samples and you’ll see: you’re in great hands.

Nick and Angie 2025

Dakotah was recommended by a friend and was a true professional. From the first phone call I could tell he knew what he was doing.
Many people have told me they wish they didn’t cut corners on their wedding video, so I am glad I didn’t. He understands how to mic the audio properly and does everything needed to get the right shots without ruining the moment. He also had great recommendations and a good understanding of how events flow and timing.
He has great equipment and knowledge. Couldn’t be happier with end the result, which was capturing the entire event with perfect audio and video and great highlight reels (even 1 formated for instagram).
He also had the proper insurance, I was able to pay with a credit card, and had a detailed contract.

In a pinch and amazing turn around time

So our photographer's recommended video guy had to suddenly drop out the day before our ceremony!!! We did some quick searches found Kota Video and they got back to us in a few minutes! They were able to record our special day and made everything look fantastic! They made suggestions for locations and cinematic views all around our venue that turned out amazing (trust the process). They sent us back out videos faster then our photos!!! Great find highly recommend!!!
