Hiring EJ and his father was the best decision we made! They are amazingly talented people and they are so kind and down to earth! They made us feel at ease on our wedding day and we enjoyed hanging out with them. They made it seem like we were hanging out with friends. A few days after the wedding, EJ sent us some photos and videos he took with his iphone. Not only were they great photos, but how sweet was that?! They made sure to capture everything we wanted and the results were phenomenal! So far we have received the highlight video, and WOW! We were both amazed at the video they created. It flows so perfectly with the song choice and captures the entire day. We are so happy that we hired Reel Motions and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for high quality work and individuals who are fun to work with. We can't wait to see the rest of the video footage!

We honestly don’t even know where to start in this review other than that you probably will never meet someone as kind and professional as EJ. We first contacted him about shooting our Yosemite wedding about a year before the big day. We had heard about him as he had shot one of my husband’s friend’s wedding. As soon as he responded, we knew that he was the videographer for us and that we could stop our search.
What really attracted us to EJ was his extensive experience with nature photography (check out his IG account @nikonej). Since we were getting married in Yosemite National Park, this was a huge plus for us. He knows and loves Yosemite and is passionate about capturing such outdoor footage.
We Skyped with EJ initially and he was extremely kind and accommodating to answer all of our questions about videographer, logistics and more. EJ is so professional and knowledgeable when it comes to weddings and his personability cannot be beat. We kept in contact with him throughout the whole lead up to the wedding, exchanging thoughts and ideas and asking him many more questions.
When we finally met EJ, we felt like we were meeting an old friend. Him and his assistant, Thomas, were so wonderful to work with. Their experience and creativity really shone through as we spent the day hiking through forests and up mountains together in Yosemite. They came up with so many creative ideas for amazing footage that we never would have thought of. Even before we left our chalet to start the day, they got so many awesome detail shots of our outfits, rings and of us getting ready.
We truly cannot imagine a videographer with more dedication to his field than EJ. He drove up to Yosemite, of his own accord, a few weeks before our wedding to capture additional nature footage for our wedding video, and even went all the way up to Glacier Point to capture sunrise the day before our wedding, again just to get extra footage for us. This initiative and drive say a lot about EJ’s professionalism and passion for his line of work, and we can’t thank him enough for truly going above and beyond to give us the best wedding video we ever could have imagined.
We received our finalised highlight video from EJ just a few weeks after the wedding which was a really pleasant surprise. To say we were blown away would not do this video justice! The reactions we’ve had from friends and family second that and bear testament to EJ’s hard work. Everything we witnessed in the year before our wedding, from EJ’s drive, dedication and creativity has been realised in unbelievable footage of our wedding day that we get to watch over and over again. EJ has managed to find the perfect mix between gorgeous landscapes and nature footage, and footage of precious moments between my husband and I on our wedding day. His editing skills are second to none and we are amazed at what he did with the footage after our wedding! Hiring EJ was one of the best decisions we made during our whole wedding planning process and we can’t imagine having chosen anyone else. Not only that, but we honestly feel like we have made friends for life in EJ and Thomas. Since there were only my husband and I at our wedding (no friends/family/guests!), it was extremely important to us that we get great footage of our wedding to show our loved ones afterwards. Thank you for memorialising our big day in the best way we ever could have imagined!

Hiring a videographer was a last minute decision I made. I wasn't sure if I needed one and if I can still squeeze it in our budget. When I decided I want and NEED one I searched forever for one that I can afford and will not charge me couple of thousand of dollars but yet can still offer a good quality of service. There's many videogprahy service that offers really cheap price but video looks like it was shot in the 80s! Finally, after endless weeks of searching on the web of cheap videography svc in the bay area, I came across Reel Motions! And found them here on weddingwire. Price definitely was affordable and the package that comes along with it is very good. Just wish they give raw copy of the film but I realized later on would I really want to watch hours of unedited film?
who'd watch that??
Met with EJ and I thought he's pretty nice so I just went for it despite of my then fiance's protest in having a videographer!
Just as after the wedding I realized, this is The BEST decision I made!
They were on time the day of our wedding. Both him and Thomas. They were sooo unobtrusive that I actually forget I have videographers shooting us. Got my wedding highlight clip a month after my wedding and it was so beautiful. The editing, transitioning and quality of the video was awesome. Better than expected! I loved it and so did everyone else... Still waiting on our full edited film... but I'm pretty sure it will be just as good. Highly recommended! They are very reasonable, very professional and you can tell there's love put in to their work.
