About

Lloyd Films has been producing wedding videos for over seven years. We focus on capturing the essence of your wedding day in a cinematic style that will look fabulous for years to come. Our goal at every wedding is to get the best possible footage, while remaining unobtrusive, casual and fun to work with. Our success also comes from always putting the client first and constantly evolving in our visual style so that you receive the best possible video of your special day.

Shawn Lloyd created Lloyd Films as a way to provide exceptional wedding videos to brides all over California. With a background in photography and graphic arts, the transition into film and video production was a natural one for Shawn in 2001. He was drawn to weddings because of the unique opportunity to tell a couple's story and capture their unique personalities in the span of one amazing day. There are few events that combine the challenging disciplines of journalism, glamour and portraiture, all in the unpredictable environment of a wedding. Shawn enjoys these challenges and the creativity they demand.

Feel free to contact us any time to discuss your event or setup a meeting. Our packages are competitively priced with options for almost any budget. Lloyd Films is available for weddings in San Diego, Orange County, Los Angeles, Palm Springs and most of Southern California, as well as, destination weddings.

Beautiful video

We originally found Lloyd films after we found which venue we were going to get married at. Lloyd films had a few uploads of wedding videos at our venue, that we thought were creative and beautiful. We were unsure if we were going to hire a videographer or not, but we are so glad we did. Lloyd films did a great job filming our wedding and capturing all the small moments, as well as the monumental moments. We are pleased with our finished videos and the quality of their work. Also, we tried to find a photo of them, but they are elusive and amazing at staying out of sight, but still seemed to catch every moment. Because of Lloyd films, we will forever have video footage of our wedding that we can look back at and relive our amazing wedding. Thank you so much for providing the memories in a tasteful way.

Best decision we made

My fiancé and I were going back and forth on whether we wanted a videographer. LISTEN TO ME WHEN I SAY THIS--- HIRE SHAWN AND HIS TEAM. It is worth every penny to have this special day documented so skillfully and beautifully. Shawn was so fantastic to work with through this whole process. He was easygoing, funny, patient and clearly an expert of his craft. We always felt we were in excellent hands throughout the whole night. Honestly, having Shawn with me throughout the day was so nice and comforting. I really felt like I had a friendly face and pal there even though we really had just met! :) His work is fantastic and even our little sneak preview has brought my whole family to tears again! If you want to have a blast while capturing the best day of your life, I HIGHLY recommend Shawn Lloyd Films!!!

perfect laid-back videographer to capture the best moments

My husband and I knew that we wanted to work with Shawn when we saw him at a bridal show and he never tried to "sell" us. He was very laid back from the moment we met him and was genuinely interested in our story and the possibility of helping tell it. This first impression ended up carrying through the entire planning process and wedding day. Shawn made sure to understand what was important to us and get a feel for our personalities to know how to work with us.
It can be pretty odd to think of someone recording you all day on your wedding, but Shawn felt like another friend there who was happy to be there. His assisntant (didn't get his name) was just as much of a pleasure to work with and have around on our wedding day. Shawn genuinely enjoyed the moments that he was capturing and was good at giving us just enough input so we could still be natural and he could get the shots he thought would look best and mean the most to us. He was even great dealing with our guests and interacting with them to make them feel comfortable, and entertaining them with his camera stabilizer when they were on the dance floor.
We don't have our footage yet, and he has been extremely flexible in providing guidance to us post-wedding! I am having a family member edit our wedding film and he's given us direction on hard drive selection and is giving us options for best delivery methods.

We had our wedding in August 2015 and hired Shawn about a year and a half before. I could not be happier with that decision. Shawn was so helpful and accommodating throughout the whole process. I was a bride with a million questions about everything, and he never seemed bothered by it. He really took the time to get to know us as a couple and that made the wedding day that much better. We were so comfortable with him that it was like hanging with a friend that day. Definitely recommend him to everyone! Can't wait to see the beautiful work : )

This review is from a vendor (Hannah Smith Events). I worked with Shawn and his team on my clients wedding at the US Grant on 8/15/15. I referred Lloyd-Films to my client because our team has worked with him before and I heard nothing but good things. He is also on our preferred vendor list. So, when my client and I met with Shawn, he clearly explained everything in a way that a professional and a client who's never gone through this process before could understand. He was thorough and responded quickly to all calls and emails. The day of the event, he showed up early, got set up and communicated well with myself and the client. The client also wanted a same-day video clip edit. Shawn took beautiful footage from the wedding day and edited it in a timely manner into an absolutely incredible video clip to show during the reception. It was such a special moment, for family and friends to see what happened behind the scenes, as the couple was getting ready and to recap on such a beautiful ceremony. He even added in some extra footage after the wedding for the bride and groom. It was so easy working with him and made my job that day so much more enjoyable as a planner, I wasn't struggling to get a hold of him or having to direct him the entire event as I sometimes do. Thank you to Shawn and his team for creating something so wonderful that the bride and groom can look back on years from now and re-live their magical day. We definitely will continue recommending Lloyd-Films and can't wait to work with him again!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

It is always a pleasure working with Shawn! He has a wonderful way of capturing moments without distracting from what's taking place. Videography is a form of art and Shawn has a way of beautifully capturing the way events unfold, naturally. He is extremely professional, keeps the lines of communication open, and is wonderful to work with!
