Sean will make your video magical. He is top notch in all categories

5 stars all the way!!! I would give extra credit stars if I could. If you are looking for a great videographer with a great price, look no further. Sean is truly the best! Seriously, book him and don’t worry about the video, you can cross that off your list of things to do and know you are in good hands. I couldn’t be happier. I was so impressed with video I ended up tipping extra. The video turned out magical. My sister and I both hired Sean as our videographer; my sister’s wedding was 6 years ago and mine was a few months ago. We both love our videos and so do all our family and friends he is a pro. Sean is nice, professional, and gets the job done right. He has different packages to meet your needs/ budget and an organized contact to make you feel secure in your decision. I was not the easiest bride and had obstacles with my photographer. However, Sean was even able to take the lead by posing my husband and I to get some awesome photos and make the video turn out perfect, he even brings large lights to get everything to look perfect. My husband’s impression of Sean was, “what a great guy, and he definitely knows what he is doing” was his comments. Sean even provided a few songs for me to choose from to make the video as I imagined. So Glad I decided to spend the money to hire Sean (at one point I thought I wasn’t even going to have a videographer since my husband, and I got married so soon and we were trying to figure out budget) but now we have this amazing video to watch back on the most important day of our lives. Its incredible to show people that you meet after your wedding or people who didn’t get to attend, it makes them feel like they were their because Sean is able to capture all the magic.
Sincerely, a very satisfied customer and now friend.

Professional Quality at Amazing Rates

Sean jumped right in on our wedding day and was very nice, polite, and professional with all of his requests. I didn't have to guide him on the right shots or where to go and what to film, he got all of it. On top of that, one of my young family members tragically passed away this year and he had captured a very heartbreakingly memorable moment in which I, the bride, had danced with him. Something the photographer had missed. The audio wasn't perfect 100% of the time as we lost a little bit of sound in the video during our shoe game but that hardly mattered as the important moments were captured beautifully. Highly recommend; if you're on the fence about getting a videographer, GET SEAN DAY!!!!

Wonderful and amazing price!

We absolutely loved Sean! He worked with us every step of the way and made sure that our final video had everything we wanted and more. He offered us free revisions of the video if needed, but we didn't. He hit all of the points that would make our video perfect! All of the stuff he did for us (including responding to emails while on his own honeymoon) is beyond amazing given his price. If you are on a budget and looking for a fantastic videographer, Sean Day is your guy!

The very best money I spent when planning my wedding!

Sean was on time, professional and kind. My guest all commented on how thorough and nice he was. Our preliminary video arrived right on time. He was accommodating to my changes.

Personable and Professional

Sean was professional, flexible, prompt, and on point with our vision for what we wanted in an affordable, yet quality videographer. On the day of our wedding, he brought an artistic enthusiasm, capturing gorgeous shots featuring the fall colors and our details. Both my husband and myself are camera shy, and we particularly appreciated his words of encouragement and humorous demeanor, relaxing both our nerves. There were tears all around when we received our video! We could not be more pleased with how Sean captured and preserved our day!

Sean was excellent! His service was not only affordable, he also went above and beyond. I wanted my wedding video to have Chinese caption so that my family in China can understand everything when they see it. So Sean went out of his way to find a company that will do the translated caption for the video for a reasonable price. The translated caption was incorrect at first, and Sean would contact the company over and over to have them fix the mistakes until it was near perfect. I really appreciated his work. He was also very flexible with the time he could show up at the wedding and his editing for the video was beautiful. I love the video so much. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a videographer.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
