Amazing Photo & Video Experience

We cannot recommend Shore & Wave enough! From the very beginning, they were so fun, professional, and easy to work with — they truly felt like part of the celebration rather than just vendors. Their energy added so much joy to our wedding day and helped us feel completely at ease in front of the camera. We are so grateful for their creativity, attention to detail, and ability to make the whole experience feel effortless and enjoyable. If you're looking for a photo and video team who will not only deliver incredible work but also elevate your entire wedding experience, Shore & Wave is it!

Amazing responsiveness!!

My fiancé and I decided to have our Nikkah at my dads house. It was a very intimate ceremony with only immediate family members and a handful of close family friends. We did not initially plan on having a photographer, but are SO GLAD we contacted Shore and Wave at the last second. Kaiel was very responsive and kind and did everything we asked with professionalism. We couldn’t be happier with the results. Thank you Kaiel!!

Shore and Wave

FIVE STARS!!! I wish I could give Kaiel 6 stars! He was the best hype man at the wedding and made our wedding look like a movie! We added on super 8 film at the last minute and I am so glad we did because it was such an amazing addition to our vintage Italian style wedding. If you need a videographer look no further than Shore & Wave! The best in the business!

Kaiel is the best videographer!

Kaiel was our videographer for our microcereomy/elopement recently and all my husband and I can say is that WE LOVE KAIEL. He is very responsive, fun to work with, and has such an infectious energy. We had such a wonderful time during our engagement session and on our wedding day (highly recommend an engagement session as it allows you to get to know each other and he can cut some scenes in your wedding video).

While it is clear that his work is gorgeous and so unique, we feel what sets him apart from others is his amazing personality and thoughtfulness. He is so kind and did many things for us the day of that is definitely above and beyond (ie made sure both of us drank enough water, helped with some set up at the ceremony site, made sure we held hands during the ceremony when we got nervous and forgot, and so much more). We would happily recommend him to any of my friends and family.

Kaiel is an amazing videographer and person!!

We had Kaiel do our videography for our wedding in December 2021 and he was absolutely amazing!! From when we first spoke to him over the phone, through the wedding and after, he has been so attentive, friendly, and easy-going. His work is unique, fun, and detailed- they are truly works of art and we are so grateful we had him to capture all the special moments. Kaiel was such a great time throughout our wedding day and definitely hyped up the group, caught some great moments on video, and kept us at ease all day. It really felt like having a good friend there with us throughout the wedding and we felt so comfortable with him from the very start.

Kaiel is an AMAZING videographer!

You can tell that Kaiel really enjoys his work and that he is very passionate about it. Not only that, but he really takes care of his clients, and he is SO chill! My husband and I felt super comfortable around him throughout the entire process - from the initial phone call through our wedding day. I remember arriving to the venue for our first look feeling super nervous and anxious because we were running late. He greeted me as soon as I arrived and instantly made me feel calm as he guided me to our first look. Throughout the day he was cracking jokes, making sure we had a drink when we needed it, willing to help with whatever came up, and he also got along really well with our photographer and other vendors. We initially hired him for our wedding because we LOVE the style of his work, but his positive personality also shines through. Naturally, he captured our wedding very beautifully, and we cannot stop watching our highlight video (which he also got back to us very quickly). Last but not least - he is super organized and communicative. He would check-in regularly months before the wedding, and he also provided us with a questionnaire, so that he fully understood exactly what we wanted him to capture. We're looking forward to referring him to all of our friends and family for their events, and we hope to have him capture more of our life events in the future!

So great to work with!

Kaiel was amazing to work with! As a wedding planner, I work with a lot of vendors & he was great! Kaiel is so fun and personable, while making sure to get all the content needed to create an incredible video for the couple! Make sure and book him for your wedding!

Would definitely recommend!

I’m so grateful that we chose Kaiel as our wedding videographer. While searching for videographers online, through recommendations, social media or wherever, his videos immediately stood out to me. Out of all the videographers we saw, even ones that have done hundreds of weddings, his style and editing was the best we’ve seen. From the first phone call I could tell he was very nice, professional, and loves what he does. He also has great energy which was so helpful for making me feel comfortable during my wedding. He was so easy to work with throughout the whole process and was always available to talk or video chat with us and work with us with any questions or changes we had. We really appreciate everything he did for us! If I could redo my wedding I would still choose him. Would definitely recommend!
