Incredible!

All I can say is WOW. From the moment we began communicating with Daniela and Max we knew we picked the right videoagraphers. They were not only easy to work with and incredibly talented, they truly cared about us as a couple. Their work captured who we are incredibly and we are so lucky we have such amazing videos to look back on to remember our special day. We can't reccomend Max, Daniela and Puremotion Cinema enough!!

Ciara and Cody

Daniela and Max are two genuine people with an incredible talent. They filmed our wedding day on 8/9/25 and we, along with our family and friends, cannot say enough great things about them. They took time to get to really know us as a couple before hand. On the wedding day, their presence was calm, kind and they blended in seamlessly. That being said, their cues and guidance throughout the day were very helpful and made for some great shots. They captured the emotion of the day in the most beautiful way and we are so thankful to them. We would book them a million times over and will be recommending them to all our family and friends! - Ciara and Cody

The best decision you'll make for your wedding

I can’t say enough wonderful things about our experience with Daniela, Max, and Anthony. They are true artists in every sense, and their talent shines through in every second of footage. We watched so many of their past videos before booking them, and each one felt better than the last—yet they still managed to blow us away with what they created for our wedding. Every frame, every transition, every piece of audio—it all came together to perfectly capture the emotion of the day. The deep love between my husband and me, the joy and support of our families, and the incredible party we threw—they somehow managed to bottle all of that magic and turn it into videos we can’t stop watching. Our friends and family haven’t stopped talking about them either!
On top of their STUNNING work and incredible professionalism, Daniela, Max and Anthony are truly wonderful people. From the very first meeting, it was clear that they weren’t just there to film our wedding—they genuinely wanted to get to know us as a couple. They were kind, thoughtful, and truly invested in capturing our story in the most authentic way possible.
One of the many wonderful stories I have of them throughout the process and on the day was when my husband realized he forgot a tie clip. Without hesitation, Anthony took off his own and gave it to him. It was such a small gesture on the surface, but it meant so much and perfectly captured the kind of people they are—caring, generous, and completely in the moment with you.
I cannot recommend them enough. Their work is unmatched, and we will treasure our wedding video and the experience of working with them—forever.

They are the best!!

Max and Daniela are truly something special. They are an incredible team, and we loved working with them every step of the way! Their calming presence and genuine energy made the entire process so enjoyable, and their love for what they do shines through in every detail.

From the very beginning, Max and Daniela were there to guide us, offer support, and make the journey of planning our wedding seamless. They have an extraordinary eye for capturing the details and emotions of the day, allowing us to relive the most special moments in a way that we’ll treasure forever.

The work they delivered was nothing short of incredible. The highlight video they created is absolutely stunning—it perfectly encapsulates the joy, love, and magic of our day. Watching our video brings all the emotions of our wedding back to life in the most beautiful way. They perfectly preserved one of the most important days of our lives.
Max and Daniela are not only incredibly talented but also an absolute joy to work with. We feel so lucky to have had them as part of our wedding day. We can’t thank them enough for creating something so timeless and meaningful!

Creative and kind duo who make stunning videos.

We found deciding on a videographer challenging because we weren't exactly what we wanted in terms of style. Daniela & Max were recommended to us and we are so glad they were. They are two of the kindest and creative people we've met. We were nervous about being in front of a camera all day, but knew we wanted videographers. Their style just put us at ease all day. They were there, but not at all in a way that felt intrusive or overwhelming. Some of what they asked us to do felt a little "silly" in the moment, but we're so glad we trusted them. The videos are just stunning. They captured the day in such a beautiful way and some of those "silly" directions resulted in these beautiful moments in their videos. They worked so well with our photographer. They were also able to work with our planner to stream the wedding for one of our dads who couldn't attend unexpectedly at the last minute. Their ability to connect the microphones in the ceremony to the stream so the ceremony could be watched is something we'll always be eternally grateful for. As we spent time with them through the day they quickly felt like more friends that were celebrating with us. We're very grateful they captured our day and would highly recommend them.

Hire Daniela and Max!

Daniela and Max were a pleasure to work with for our July 2024 wedding! Leading up to the wedding, they made a huge effort to get to know us so that they could create wedding content that represented us as a couple. They have an impressive attention to detail and they were super responsive via email throughout the planning process. Daniela and Max were such a calm and kind presence on the day of the wedding and I could relax knowing that they were there to capture all of the memories. We love our wedding films so much and will cherish them for years to come. You will be so happy with your decision to book Puremotion Cinema for your special day!

Best Videographers

We found Daniela and Max through our photographer. Their work was so different than everything else out there. They were professional, quick to respond to our initial email and set up a meeting to get to know us. We met with them a few weeks prior to our wedding to discuss final details & they listened to our ideas and give suggestions. On our wedding day, they made us feel so comfortable.

We just got our wedding video back with the highlight film, full ceremony, speeches and formal dances and we are blown away with how perfect everything came out. We are so happy with the way everything came out. Our families and friends have commented how great our instagram reel and highlight film look. They definitely make you feel like you are movie stars! We cannot wait to watch these clips for the rest of our lives. Book Daniela and Max and you will not be disappointed! 5 ⭐️

Daniela & Max are the best!

We can’t say enough about Daniela & Max! Every step of the process was easy, thorough, and they made us feel so comfortable. They were also very accommodating and flexible with scheduling so our wedding planner could attend our detail meetings. Also, when we found out the location for our first-look wasn’t going to work and they helped us quickly plan an alternative location and helped coordinate the logistics so it wasn’t stressful for us at all. Everyone has been blown away with our teaser video - the quality of their work is unmatched! Daniela & Max are truly the best!

Daniela & Max make an amazing team!

Max & Daniela were such an amazing team to work with from start to finish! From our initial meetings before our wedding day they took the time to make us feel comfortable and get to know what was important to us as a couple -- they concentrated not only how we wanted our wedding day video to look but also how we wanted the day to FEEL which to us was so important and thoughtful. They spent time with us and our planner before and on the wedding day to review our timeline, planning details and made sure they knew exactly what we wanted highlighted in our video. On the day of the wedding they were phenomenal - they remembered details I had mentioned and then forgot in the business of the day and thanks to them they made sure we got them. They encouraged us to get out of our comfort zone and try things to fit different vibes discussed in our meetings (like getting drama shots in honor of our love for mob movies!) They worked seamlessly with our photographers team and executed the perfect balance of being front and center to capture everything but also blending into the background. So many of our family and guests commented that they barely noticed them moving about the crowd capturing all our special moments but when we did notice them, we were having fun! We felt so comfortable and supported by them, they fit right in with our crowd and we felt like they were friends! Absolutely loved working with them!

Best videographers that will make you feel so comfortable and at ease

We can't say enough good things about Daniela and Max. From our first video meeting with them, to our big day, they did nothing but put us at ease and make us laugh and smile. They are so fun and easy to get along with, which goes a long way with the people behind the camera capturing your big wedding day moments. Their style is effortless and they do such a good job of capturing all the moments in a way where you almost don't even realize they are there, until you catch one of them giving you a big smile that just puts you at ease. Thank you, Daniela and Max, for all that you do!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
