Just book them!

Absolutely thrilled with JD and his team at! They stepped in at the last minute for our June '24 wedding and exceeded every expectation. JD, the owner, was incredibly professional, responsive, and genuinely cared about capturing our special day perfectly.

From the moment they arrived, JD and his team were organized, friendly, and unobtrusive. They managed to capture every important moment. The photos and videos turned out stunningly beautiful, with each shot perfectly framing the emotions and details of our wedding day.

JD’s expertise and creative eye are evident in every picture and video. He has a unique talent for capturing candid & portrait moments that truly reflect the essence of the day. The photography product was delivered promptly, and the quality was nothing short of amazing.

Thank you, JD, for stepping in and providing such exceptional service. You made our wedding day unforgettable, and we will treasure these memories forever. Highly recommend JD and his team to anyone in need of top-notch photography and videography services!

Excellent on Short Notice

Wildwood did our wedding with very short notice from us, and it was absolutely beautiful. The footage that they took really captured the energy of the wedding. They were very professional and had plenty of great ideas for shots that came out great. We were even able to add something to our ceremony that we hadn't thought of because of their intake form/questionnaire. We would definitely suggest them to anyone getting married!

Amazing work

It was a pleasure having JD as our videographer. He worked incredibly hard to get some great footage of our special day and we are forever grateful to have such a beautiful video to be able to look back at for the rest of our lives. You will receive a ton from him for the price, which was very reasonable! We got a teaser, a highlight reel, the entire wedding ceremony, full dances, full speeches, and a 5-7 min video all for an amazing price. I had hired JD after having issues with another videography company. The original videographer still showed up but did not deliver my video until almost a year later and also showed up to my formal wedding in shorts and a T-shirt. JD on the other hand began to deliver almost less than a month after the wedding. So be careful who you hire for the big day, look for well established companies such as Wildwood. I had no such issues with JD, as he was professional and trustworthy. I am so glad I went with my gut feeling and decided to hire him. 10 out of 10 stars I highly recommend Wildwood Wedding Films & Photgraphy.

Best videographer in the PNW!


We couldn’t be happier with the incredible work J.D. did for our special day! From the moment we first met, it was clear that he understood our vision and were genuinely invested in making our wedding memories last a lifetime.

On the day itself, J.D. blended seamlessly into the background, capturing every precious moment without being intrusive. The final video was nothing short of magical! The details and editing was beautifully documented.

We especially appreciated how he incorporated our personal story into the film with interviews from close friends and family.

If you’re looking for a talented videographer who will go above and beyond to create stunning memories, we highly recommend J.D.—he truly exceeded our expectations!

Thank you for giving us a beautiful way to relive our wedding day!

Review for JD - Exceptional Wedding Videographer

JD truly went above and beyond in bringing our wedding video to life. As a solo videographer, we were thoroughly impressed with the number of cameras he set up to capture footage from every angle. His attention to detail ensured that not a single special moment was missed.

From the beginning, JD was incredibly easy to communicate with. He took the time to understand our vision, providing valuable input and suggestions to enhance our ideas. On the day of the wedding, he was professional, unobtrusive, and seamlessly blended into the background, allowing us to enjoy our day without any added stress.

The final videos he created were absolutely stunning. Each shot was beautifully composed, and the editing was flawless. JD's ability to capture the emotion and essence of our day is something we will cherish forever. He perfectly documented not only the big moments but also the little, candid interactions that made our day so special.

Moreover, his dedication and passion for his craft were evident in every frame. The transitions, music choices, and overall narrative flow of the videos were beyond our expectations. Watching the video feels like reliving the day all over again, and for that, we are eternally grateful.

We wholeheartedly recommend JD to any couple looking for a wedding videographer who is talented, dedicated, and truly cares about creating a beautiful keepsake of their special day. Thank you, JD, for your outstanding work and for giving us a video that we will treasure forever.

Incredible Talent.

We were married in Bend, OR winter 2023 and it was an unforgettable day. One of the best decisions we made was hiring JD to capture our wedding day so we could enjoy watching it over and over each year. Wedding days are whirlwinds, and I was so thankful for the attention to detail that Wildwood Wedding Films took to ensure nothing was missed. JD was kind, professional and his work speaks for itself. Javier was the assistant on the project and we were thrilled with his work as well. Weddings are a big investment, and while high quality videographers like Wildwood Wedding Films are also an investment, it’s one of the best investments we made. Each time I watch our wedding film I notice something new, each time I am brought back to one of the best days of my life, and each time I am thankful I researched videographers and found JD at Wildwood Wedding Films. Highly recommend.

Amazing Wedding Night

My wife and I had a great time with Wildwood. JD was super helpful, communicative, and made our wedding night stress-free. Our videos came out amazing and we couldn’t be happier with the results.

So happy we got a videographer and that it was JD!

We had an amazing experience with Wildwood Wedding Films & JD and are so happy with our final product(s)!! I can't express how grateful we are to have had Wildwood capture our special day. As soon as I arrived at the venue, I saw JD and was immediately put at ease because I felt like I was in expert hands, and the final product is beyond anything we could have imagined. JD caught every detail and captured our story in a way that was unique to us. Our venue (Mt Hood Organic Farms) is a dream venue and they really showcased what an amazing day we had there - including with the drone. They got interviews with some of our closest friends (& my 93 year old grandmother) and captured all of our special moments. We've been married about 3 months now and I watched the video yesterday and was in (happy) tears with the emotions and memories of the day. And we got our 60-second teaser back while we were on our honeymoon (less than two weeks after our wedding). It really has been such a such a special way to relive our big day and share with family and friends (including those who weren't able to attend).

We really debated getting a videographer - it felt like a nice to have - and now it feels crazy we were ever questioning it - the videos are so special and we will cherish them for years to come.
