A creative & professional team!

TLDR; April Story Films is a creative, professional and fun videography team at the fraction of the cost of similar vendors in the wedding industry. They were so easy to work with and go above & beyond to produce beautiful work. If we had to do our wedding all over, we would 100% hire them as our videographers again! Thank you, Sung & Adele, for capturing & creating something so special that my husband and I will cherish forever!

We hired April Story Films for our wedding weekend in July 2024 and we are SO happy we did! My husband and I stumbled across their work on The Knot & Instagram and we were immediately in awe at their creativity and style. We had a phone call with Sung to ask some questions/logistics and shortly after booked them for our wedding. Sung and Adele drove outside of LA for 2 of our wedding days at no extra cost, and they were so professional, attentive and kind. They were actually early each day and started capturing context, which made me feel so at ease. It was a such a breeze to work with them from before/during/after our wedding! They even made lasting impressions on our families and friends. We got our wedding trailer (~10 mins long) about 2 months after the wedding & Sung was so accommodating with our song choices (he and my husband sneaked in a very special song for me as a surprise!). I watched our trailer everyday for about 2 months and cried almost every time. It was so beautiful! Our families even still show it to their friends!!

Five months after we got the trailer, we received our full wedding film (75 min long!!) which Sung so graciously upgraded for us at no extra cost, as we originally chose a package at a lower tier. My husband and I watched it the day Sung sent it to us and it was like reliving our wedding weekend all over again. We are so lucky to have found a videography team to create something so meaningful and capture our wedding how we envisioned it. And everything at a very reasonable price- which was obviously a great touch given how expensive weddings can be especially after COVID. As I’m writing this review, my dad called me and raved about how beautiful and high quality the full video is! You will not regret choosing April Story Films as your videographer for your wedding or any special event!

Grateful to Have Chosen Them

I came to know Sung and Adele from a friend who got married and used April Story Films as their videographers. My friend's wedding trailer was incredible and I knew right away that I had to have them as my wedding videographers when I got married in the future.

As COVID hit, a lot of weddings got postponed including mine, and Sung and Adele were very understanding and patient as they had to adjust through the unprecedented time. In fact, I ended up planning my wedding and notifying them in about a month, and they were very accommodating. Despite being busy at the time, they still tried to make my wedding fit into their schedule. They always answered their emails promptly, and they patiently answered every concern I had. Since my wedding was shorter and much smaller than the usual weddings, I was worried that there would not be much content for Sung and Adele to work with. Nevertheless, they still reassured me that everything would be alright.

The wedding day came, and Sung and Adele came early to the venue and brought all their equipments. They were encouraging, and were trying their best to make me and my husband feel at ease during the event. They knew we were stressed out for this event but their positivity made us feel more relaxed as the day went on. Adele even helped fix my hair and dress, and acted like my bridesmaid since I did not have one at the time. Additionally, they worked extremely well with our photographer, and went with the flow. As the day came to an end, Sung and Adele felt like family because of their easygoing attitude.

As the days went by, my husband and I received an email from them in regards to the wedding trailer. It was so beautiful, and my husband even said that he did not know they were filming him at some point because they were like ninjas. Our friends and families were very thrilled with the video, and they complimented how lovely the video was. To anyone getting married, April Story Films is worth every penny, and you are in such great hands when you are with them.

A Journey with April Story Films

This completely blew us away!! We are literally stunned with how beautiful, artistic, and all around storytelling was done in this cinematic trailer. We had chills during the intro, anticipation during the mass, tears during the speeches and dances, and overwhelming joy and excitement through it all. Emelee and I have already list count of how many times we've watched it. Sung, Adele, Harrison and your team have made something that will be treasured by us and by many for the rest of our lives, and hopefully after that as well. We can't wait to share this with our friends and family!

Absolutely incredible!

We cannot say enough good things about Sung and April Story Films! We initially reached out to them because they did the videography for a friend's wedding in LA. We loved their work and asked them if they would be interested in coming to Rhode Island. Sung immediately said yes and was more than fair in price. Communication was excellent leading up to the wedding weekend. When it came time for the weekend, he and Adel made us feel extremely comfortable, were very professional, and had some amazing shots. We just got our Cinematic trailer, and all I can say is, wow. It was incredible. He blends various scenes into a story, and brings the day back to life. We can't wait for the full length video. Would recommend April Story Films to anyone looking for a videographer that brings true emotion and passion into their work.

April story films is amazing!

April Story Films was AMAZING! Sung and his team greatly exceeded our expectations. Our wedding videos are absolutely breathtaking and they did such a phenomenal job at capturing all the moments that were special to us. I was surprised at how fast I received all my wedding videos. They were very professional, had great communication, and very easy to work with. Their packages are also very reasonably priced. For anyone that is searching for a videographer to work with, seamlessly capture your day, and provide you with memories that will last a lifetime I highly recommend April Story Films. We can't thank Sung and his team enough for capturing my wedding day!

Experienced and Professional!!! The best!

My man Sung! Words cannot explain my gratitude to you and your team. Sincerely from the bottom of my heart, kelly and I truly appreciate the effort you took to make our dream video into reality. I am so glad you were a part of the wedding and you literally captured everything! I didnt know how stressful the wedding day was going to be but you and your partner were so experienced and professional that the shoot went smoothly and fun. After seeing the video, it shocks me how quick you made it! The editing skills your team has is top notch. I’ve shared the preview with all my friends and family and they all loved it. Thank you!!! Looking forward to the rest of the video!

Best wedding decision!

We are so happy to have had April Story Films as our wedding videographer! Sung and his team are truly wonderful to work with. On our wedding day, they were able to capture so many beautiful cinematic moments in a short time. On top of that, they worked so well with our photographer which made our entire photographing/filming experience seem effortless. We received our cinematic trailer less than 3 weeks after the wedding and are OBSESSED with it. Everything from the music selection, cinematic moments to the story telling were perfect! I must've watched the trailer at least 100 times and cannot wait to see the full film. Thank you Sung and team for capturing our day so beautifully.

Best decision for my wedding

When I was browsing on the Knot for videographer for my wedding, I watched at least 20+ videos from different videographers. And Sung’s video was the only one that got me teared up. Unlike a lot of generic wedding videos, Sung really puts in his heart and soul to capture the uniqueness in every love story. And that’s why I signed the contract without even talking to him!! And of course, It was THE BEST decision I made for my wedding. His video blew my mind, it was intimate, unique, emotional, and just really captured all the great moments of my big day. His team was such a delight to work with as they come with so much passion for what they do. I will recommend April Story Films to all my friends the moment they start planning their weddings!!

Amazing experience working with them

April Story Films is an amazing team. We initially worked with them on a pre-wedding, engagement video. The video came out amazing. With our expectations very high already, they went above and beyond our expectations for our wedding trailer. It was very easy to work with Song and his team, they are very friendly and also flexible as long as all communications are clear and given enough notice. They created a video that we will forever cherish and always watch over and over again. The day of the wedding, it was effortless working with them. Nothing took too long, there wasn't any demanding and tight schedules. They let us enjoy our wedding and still got all the shots they needed. We highly recommend April Story Films. Thank you guys so much!

Best Wedding Decision was to Hire April Story Films

Sung Yoo and his team were true professionals from start to finish. A lot of other friends I know who have gotten married have had some nightmares regarding their videography, which made me extra cautious when selecting the videographer for my own wedding. I cannot be happier that we went with April Story Films. They delivered such beautiful work and stuck to the timeline (we had our cinematic trailer within the first month after our wedding and our full 1 plus hour edited video less than 6 months after). Furthermore, they have some of the most affordable packages. I can't say enough good things about Sung Yoo and April Story Films; they made my husband and I look like movie stars on our wedding day! They could not have captured our love more perfectly, and my husband and I now have something we can cherish forever to remember our special day. Again, I cannot recommend April Story Films enough!

You will NOT regret hiring April Story Films!!!

I was fortunate to hire Sung and his team for my wedding after my original videographer canceled. In just less than a month I received my cinematic trailer. Oh boy, it did not disappoint. I received so many compliments from friends and family. The trailer is like out of a romantic blockbuster movie. He knows how to capture and put together all the important moments throughout the day into a 5-minute clip. Now the anticipation awaits for the full-length video. If you are looking for a friendly, professional, and skilled videographer that is a real FILMMAKER, you will NOT regret hiring April Story Films.

Incredible work, one of the best decisions we made for our wedding

Hiring Sung and his team was one of the best decisions we made for our entire wedding. Videography was really important to my now husband and I because we wanted more than just a film of our special moments - we wanted to have something that could tell our love story and capture the emotions of our big day.

What Sung delivered was above and beyond anything we could have imagined. We just got our highlights trailer and I've probably watched it about 100x times now. Our video wasn't just a bunch of HD clips stitched together in chronological order. Every little detail from the voiceovers of our vows, to the clips that were chosen, to the changes in the music was intentional and had a purpose in telling our love story. It was absolutely perfect.

Sung and team, thank you for giving us the gift of being back to relive our most special day!!

So very happy

I just read a review right before mine and it was almost the same experience. I spent so so so many days watching different videos of multiple videographers. I came across their videos and I just knew I had to hire them. I wanted something different. I didn't want your average run of the mill video. And wow seriously incredible. The cinematography of it all is just insane. Sung is such a sweet person and I am so grateful he was our videographer. He created some truly unique and beautiful shots. I'm in love with our wedding video. It is so special to us. You have to hire Sung. April Story Films is a California treasure.

April Story Films is the best videographer in the states!!

April Story Films was the best decision we made for our wedding. We recently received our wedding trailer and are completely blown away. I've watched it over and over, at least once a day, and it still brings tears to my eyes. I listen to the music to our video all the time too and it all just brings the memories back. The wedding seemed to go by so fast and was over before I knew it! To be able to see it again, and from different points of view and captured so beautifully, I can't stress enough how this is one of the best investments you will ever make. These memories will be with us forever. Sung and Omar were awesome. Sung was great with communications and easy to work with, and throughout the entire day he checked in with the me and the bridal party. I am the most awkward person ever and didn't have confidence being in front of the camera, but Sung was so encouraging, so kind, and made me feel more confident and beautiful. They also got really great footage of my husband and his groomsmen, and great expressions and moments with family and friends. His genuine care, friendliness, and passion for his work is clear and I would recommend him and his team to anyone. My family and friends also rave about how they loved our wedding trailer, and some even cried! My sister wishes she could have her own wedding all over again so that he could make a video for her too, because she loved our video so much! All in all, I wouldn't think twice about hiring April Story Films. You won't regret it. We love them!! Thank you so much Sung, we are so thankful for your work!

April Story Films was really fun and easy to work with. Sung captured our wedding beautifully. They made me feel really comfortable. They’re also very quick to respond. I love how our video came out. We’ve watched it numerous times. Our friends and family enjoyed and loved it too. Just make sure you communicate with them on what you want to see in your video.

My all-time favorite vendor!!

You won’t go wrong with this Los Angeles wedding videographer! When you plan a wedding, you get an idea of where you want to prioritize costs. We knew early on that photo and video were on the top of our list. After researching recommendations from friends and all in the Best of the Knot 2019 magazine, we narrowed it down to two from the Knot. My wife had some prior experience with wedding photography and video and advocated for April story films while I was on the fence. In the end, I cannot think of going with anyone else.

ASF is simply the best! From the moment we got on the phone with Sung, he showcased his organizational skill and alignment of vendor/client goals. His work (the cinematic trailer) was beyond our wildest dreams! We received so many compliments on our videographer! He made us feel so happy naturally with his unique engaging personality.
On our wedding day, Sung and Nathan accommodated us with last minute requests and provided exceptional videography services. They made us laugh a lot, in a good way! We are so pleased with the work we have seen so far from them. I highly recommend April story films and cannot say enough great things!

Perfect wedding videographer!

Let me first say that adding a videographer to our day was a last minute decision and we are so glad that we did--we cannot stop watching our highlight film!!! Our day of videographer, Sung, was kind, considerate and respected our wishes to be discreet. For us, keeping the intimacy of our wedding was a top priority and we did not want the videographer to make our wedding feel like a production. Sung was able to capture every beautiful moment from our first look, ceremony and reception without feeling like a presence. Nathan, who edited our video, was extremely responsive and tailored our highlight film to capture all of the best moments from our amazing day. I am so grateful that we chose April Story Films to document our wedding and to provide us with this video that we are able to share with friends and family as well as have for ourselves for generations to come!

I love April Story Films. They were easy to work with and quick to respond. They captured everything from our wedding that I was hoping and asked for. Sung and his team made our wedding day fun and made us feel comfortable being in front of the camera. Our video was beautifully captured. All our family and friends loved our video. Communicate with them what you would like captured on film and everything will fall into place.

Nothing short of Spectacular

Where do I even begin?? Sung and his team made my wedding day such a memorable experience. If I had to chose a top vendor for my wedding, it would 100% be April Story Films. From the moment they showed up, our family, wedding party and other vendors were extremely comfortable. We received our cinematic trailer within 2 weeks after our wedding, which is amazing. I am beyond grateful for Sung and his team that I will have my wedding day film for years to come and always be able to look back on what a beautiful day it was.

I don’t normally give 5 star ratings but Sung and the April Story team are above and beyond exceptional in all categories. We are fully pleased customers and overall had a wonderful experience with the services provided by Sung and April Story Films. They are reliable and provide top quality service and work (very personable too). We were recommended April Story Films by our family and friends who had used their services and noted that the quality is top notch and worth every penny; we agree! Throughout the entire process they were professional and courteous. They are full of life and made the often stressful times of a wedding seem carefree and fun. We never once doubted their execution in following through or their expertise. It was apparent they knew exactly what they were doing, but communicated in a humble and gracious manner. During our actual ceremony and reception they captured some amazing footage without getting in the way or distracting from the ceremony. The product they delivered was absolutely phenomenal! Sung was instrumental in helping us with song choices for the trailer and full length film. He made sure the trailer was delivered in time for our East Coast reception showing. We were completely blown away by how beautifully it all came together. We received many compliments from friends and family who were blown away. It is very clear that April Story Films takes great pride in their work and are passionate about what they do; their attention to detail and dedication to the editing process sets them apart. The video flows well and the music blends exceptionally with the shots. They were a joy to work with during the one-on-one shots and afterwards solicited and incorporated our feedback on song selection. Because we were so confident in their abilities, we had no quarrels in patiently waiting for full length film which was a lovely 6 month anniversary present. Again, we were impressed and excited that our day was captured so beautifully. We highly r

April Story Films is AMAZING!!! If there is a 10 stars out of 5, we would give it.
Very professional, artistic and we got our video pretty promptly. It was over our expectation. We were not movie stars but with the directing and guidance of Sung, the outcome makes us feel like movie stars. A lot of our family and friends after seeing the video were all impressed. The equipments are very high tech. The price for the service was affordable. We have seen many works that cost a lot more but the quality is nothing compare to April Story Films. Other videography companies might cost twice as much and yet the quality is half as good. I would highly recommend them! Fly them out to your wedding place if you have to, you will not regret!

I had my wedding back in April 2017 at Malibu. Story Films was my favorite vendor among all! Even my wedding planner who has worked in the industry for years said she would choose the company as her prefer partner after working with them on my wedding date. Here are why you want to hire them.

1 Beautiful works!! Many friends said my wedding’s video is the best compared to others’ they have watched. You can check their works using below link.
https://vimeo.com/aprilstoryfilms

2 Reasonable price ! When you planning the wedding, the budget matters. Both my wedding planner (she said she thought the rate could have been higher LOL)and I think Sung’s price is very reasonable. Book them as soon as possible before the rate changed.

3 The team is willing to go extra miles ! After most of our guests left, Sung asked if we want to film some night shot. Vendors were leaving one by one but Sung’s team are the one staying and insist to film more for perfection.

4 They are very professional !! Both my husband and I speak Cantonese and 99% of our wedding guests speak Chinese on the wedding. Sung did a wonderful job in terms of communication even though he is Korean and don’t know Chinese at all ! Our vows are all in Chinese but I want to put the vows into the video. Sung learned and researched my Chinese vows line by line and edited the vows into the video beautifully according to its meaning. I was very moved. Both my husband and I cried when we first saw the video.

I have been emailing Sung for about 2 years but I have only met him once on my wedding day. I was nervous and worry if he is as good as I thought. But when I met Sung and his assistant I know I was right about them. Sung is a very sincere person and does more than says. Sung and his team will help you to memorize your beautiful moment of lifetime. Good luck with your wedding planning???

Their work was exquisite and Sung was a really pleasure to work with. I became a huge admirer of their work after first seeing their trailers and videos on facebook, and knew I had to have them for my wedding. I literally wanted nobody else. He offered a really reasonable price and would definitely recommend him and his team to any future couples getting married. Thanks Sung.

April Story Films is truly as good as it gets! Sung and his team were super friendly and very professional. Of all the vendors we hired, they were definitely one of the TOPS! The work they deliver show such passion and talent for what they do. They know how to capture all the right moments and piece it together in a way that tells a one of kind story. Everyone that saw our wedding trailer they made were amazed and blown away. We were truly blessed to have found such talents to help capture our big day! Thank you so much!!!

Choosing April Story Films was THE best decision I made for our wedding. Sung and his team are absolutely amazing to work with. They are professional, so easy to work with, and very down to earth. Sung is kind and sweet, and worked very well with my family, wedding party, and the other vendors. I was a nervous wreck on the wedding day and he helped me feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera. I told him my vision for our wedding video and he created such a beautiful product. I get teary eyed every time I watch it still. He knew all the detail shots I envisioned in the video and I never had to give him any guidance. He helped select music for the video as well and always answered my questions promptly. Please don’t think twice about choosing April Story Films as videographer, they exceeded my expectations on every level! Thank you SO MUCH, April Story Films!

Sung and his crew are the best videographers in Los Angeles (if not in the whole world. *wink*) I had a privilege to work with Sung and two of his staff when we had our pre-wedding shot in Descanso Gardens during the cold, chilly December and on our actual wedding day on January 14, 2017. And all I can say is, they will work for you, worry less on how it will turn out because they have the best God-given talent and knowledge to make your video the best that you could ever imagine.

Around 2016, my husband and I were brainstorming on who to hire as our videographers. Trust me, I am such a hard critic on wedding videos because I wanted to have the best memory of our wedding. I've watched many videographers' products and none of them reached my standards, modesty aside. I came across with April Story Films right on the nth page of "the knots" and as soon as I pressed play, I couldn't stop myself commending their work and cried on each videos I watched.

I steadfastly emailed him and called him many times. Knowing his busy schedule, I waited and sure enough, he replied back to my query and set the meeting right away. I encouraged my husband to lock this deal in as quick as we can because I got the best feeling that he is such a great deal to have! lol! I am sorry, but I really feel like it is a no-brainer not to have him for your wedding. It is evident on his wonderful finished products that he put his heart out and brainstormed many smart effects on each videos that I watched.

Sung, thank you so much for giving us the best memory of our wedding. You are such a great, genuine, and honest person. You are not just a businessman but you are a very kind hearted person who won our trust in so many levels. Thank you so much again. It was such a great honor. Our heartfelt gratitude to you and to your wonderful staff again.

To your future clients and to the ones reading this long review looking for a great videographer, don't you every think twice!

Sung and team shot our pre-wedding and wedding video and we are so pleased and happy with the videos. Sung is so talented and the videos exceeded our expectations.
We felt so comfortable when we were shooting. He really gets to know you and gets to know you as a couple. He listens to what we want and adds his artistic eye to it. It is something we will always treasure and watch over and over.

Sung and his crew from April Story Films came highly recommended by our photographer. She told me that they are extremely easy to work with, they're very thorough, and they hear you out in every detail you want to make your wedding day perfect. SHE WAS RIGHT!!!!! They were super professional, prompt and didn't miss one single shot. They were kind, and never in anyone's way. Sung had my teaser/trailer to me so quickly, and it instantly brought tears to my eyes. Thank you ASF for helping turn my dream wedding into reality, and catching it all on film. I would recommend them to anyone, and everyone!!!!!

Sung and his team at April Story couldn't have been better. They knew exactly what shots they wanted and worked around our day, we barely noticed they were there taking all this wonderful footage. To be honest I was a bit nervous because I couldn't meet them before our big day but from looking at his work I knew it was going to be quality and they did not disappoint. We just got our trailer and it's great, looking forward to the full length! Thanks Sung.

My husband and I could not be any happier with the work from April Story Films. Sung and Omar made us feel comfortable as shooting the pre-wedding trailer was a little awkward at moments because we were shooting in very public areas (middle of the street in downtown L.A.). The quality of their work is incredible. You are able to see the passion Sung has for his art in the quality of his films! Our wedding was in Santa Barbara on the beach and they were very open to traveling and being in the sand! We are very very please with April Story Films and would recommend their service!

My name is Ann and my wedding was located in San Diego, CA in August 2016 (Mt Woodson Castle). My husband and I had the pleasure to work with Sung and Vicente. We are extremely glad we were able to book April Story Films as our wedding film makers!! Sung is professional, passionate, and extremely talented. His creations are just AMAZING! He truly cares about his clients and appreciates to be apart of such a special day filled with so much love.

I met Sung at my sister's wedding. He was actually my sister's videographer for her wedding day in December 2015 in Los Angeles. My fiance (at the time) and I were on the fence about hiring a videographer because the selection in San Diego is alright, and their prices are just to high for what I previewed on the vendors websites; we didn't think it was worth it. But once we saw my sister's cinematic trailer Sung made for her wedding day, we were completely blown away and speechless! It was just soo beautiful!!! We knew we had to book April Story Films!!! Sung not only captures all the the emotions and details, but puts everything together so beautifully. He fully utilizes a drown to cover amazing aerial views. When browsing around, I found some videographers who don't even use a drown, or for the ones that did offer this service, they charged a separate drown price. Are you serious?!?

On our wedding day, Sung and Vicente took the time to capture everything we wanted and was very aware of our multi-cultural wedding (Chinese and Swiss). They got along great with our photographers and was very respectful of each others time and equipment.

Even though Sung did my sister's wedding, our video was nothing like hers. Yes they were both amazing, but he takes each couple, their tastes, and their special day, to makes each production elegantly unique in their own way. Let their work speak for itself! April Story Films is amazing!!!

My wife and I were very fortunate to use April Story Films for out wedding event and I must say their service was amazing and awesome!! I usually don't like being in front of any type of camera but they were able to make me feel very comfortable no matter how awkward I would feel at the moment. They were super professional and very polite all the way through the event, never demanding or pushy considering the limited time we had. In the beginning I was actually a little unsure about using any kind of video service for the wedding but after seeing the final cut of the film they made for us it was worth every penny. The video quality and editing was very professional and looked overall amazing! I HIGHLY recommend April Story Films for anyone that needs any kind of videographer service for any type of event.

I can't say enough good things about Sung and April Story Films. We just received our cinematic wedding trailer (link here: https://vimeo.com/172830563) from our wedding on Memorial Day weekend and are completely blown away. Sung is clearly an amazing video editer, we knew that after watching other trailers on the April Story web site before we chose him, but we couldn't have asked for a more perfect representation of the happiness of our wedding day. We are so thankful to have this memento that we will treasure forever. Beyond that, Sung was a pleasure to work with and always very responsive to any questions we had via email. He made it a point to meet us before the wedding so that he could get to know us which he said helps him do the best job shooting us on the day of. It also must be said the value for the level of quality we received was unbelievable. He used great equipment, a really cool glider cam and a drone which made for really epic shots. Based on quotes from other videographers we looked at we literally would've paid double for all of this had we went with somebody else. We're so happy we chose April Story to capture our wedding, anybody looking should absolutely do the same! Thank you again Sung and April Story for your incredible service and video.

Honestly, these guys exceeded all of our expectations. They did not give us any hardships or any demands. They showed up early and left at the very end of the night- which others seem to charge extra for. We chose them based on their previous work and we do not regret it one bit! The cinematic trailer is a service that not many other people provide and they do a phenomenal job with it! It seriously is SO cool and very unique (which was really important to us). They sent us a link for the video only 2 weeks after the wedding and they're going to follow up in a couple months with a 45-60 minute video as well. The prices are very reasonable especially after shopping around with all the ridiculously priced videographers. I will emphasize that they are FILMMAKERS and not just someone to record the wedding. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. I do not doubt that our kids will someday watch their work and think we had the most epic wedding ever! Thanks April Story Films!!!

Sung, Josh, and the team from April Story Films are absolutely the BEST! My husband and I hired them to be our wedding videographers back in August 2015 (I know, this review is long overdue!). I did a ton of online research trying to find the perfect cinematic style. I knew I wanted something different and unique but kept coming across the same ol' typical wedding videos and nothing stood out. UNTIL I stumbled across April Story Films and immediately fell in love with their artistic vision, way of storytelling, and breath of work.

We had an initial consultation with Sung and Josh at a local coffeeshop and they were very professional. It was important to us to love our cinematographers' portfolio, but also to have them be kind, organized, and down-to-earth. Sung and Josh definitely lived up to our expectations! Their rates are also very affordable compared to other ones I've seen, and their work is really worth so much more.

They were extremely reliable and very prompt in their communication with us and our Day-of-Wedding Coordinator. We received the footage in a timely manner and Sung was very accommodating with my edits requests. We loved their choices in the music and the final edits of our wedding trailer and video were absolutely breathtaking! We watched them over and over again and couldn't be more happy that we got to work with Sung and Josh. If you're looking for event cinematographers/videographers, look no further than April Story Films!

We were looking for a videographer not only whose style we liked but also whose price we could afford (not an easy combination to find). We ended up deciding on April Story Films, and after receiving our wedding video yesterday, I could not be more happy about this decision. Sung and his team did some truly excellent work on our video (which you can see, along with all their other videos, on their website aprilstoryfilms.com). Each shot is composed beautifully, and the way they layered our officiant's speech in perfect sync with the music still gives me chills. There's just so much about the video that we love: the flying drone shot over our venue, the seamless editing, the way it unfailingly captured all of our favorite moments from the night... just perfection.

On the day of, Sung and Vicente were friendly and professional throughout, and worked cooperatively with all of our other vendors. We were worried that having a videographer meant that we would have to spend a lot of our wedding day posing and doing shots (rather than just enjoying the experience itself), but aside from a few short moments of this, the videographers were unobtrusive and worked well in the background, while still capturing some fantastic footage.

Overall, we have absolutely no hesitations about recommending Sung and his team at April Story Films. We did quite a bit of research on other videographers, and what April Story Films offers for the price they ask is far and away the best deal we found. Sung is very quick to respond to all emails, which made working with him a breeze. We are so happy with how our video turned out, and are excited to see our full-length video in a few months!

Friends and relatives told us that our wedding was a "fairytail", "it was magical", "like a movie". I have to say that hiring Sung from ASF is THE best decision I made during this wedding entire planning process! I don't think I'm easily pleased and to get that kind of review from me is close to impossible.

Some of my friends decided to skip wedding videography but for me, it was the very first thing I was researching on when we first got engaged. Originally we hired Xposure films but during the very last step, after we already signed our contract, Xerxes from Xposure Films decided that he doesn't want to respond to my emails anymore... that's after we signed the contract and we were literally about to mail our deposit check! They say bad things happen so something better will happen! I found these guys and I am so thankful for Xposure Films lack of professionalism. If it wasn't for them, I'd never get a chance to work with Sung and Josh! Not only did they show up early, they stayed til almost the very end of our wedding!

One thing that really impresses me about these guys is that they value your experience over money and I really can't say the same thing about any other vendors we worked with!!

My husband and I are so grateful that April Story Films was able to film our wedding. We met Sung & Josh at our friends' wedding and were so impressed with their work. Although our wedding was more than a year away and we were previously not considering videography, we decided we had to book them.

On the day of our wedding, Sung & Josh arrived earlier than expected and were the last vendors to leave. Sung even came out to our wedding rehearsal in order to familiarize himself with the wedding venue. They are extremely professional and easy to work with; they are always prompt with regards to communication. They have their own unique and artistic style, and they will cater to each couple/wedding. Looking through their work you will notice that each video has its own original story line. We love that both our wedding trailer and full length film were transformed into beautiful stories w/ amazing highlights and editing. We also appreciate that they were able to capture the most elegant details from our wedding. You can tell by their work that they are masters in film production. Definitely worth the price--in terms of what you receive as the finished product and the amount of time they put into creating your films. We can't thank them enough for capturing our special day. By far our favorite wedding vendor... You won't regret booking them!

My husband and I were debating on if we wanted a videographer or not for our wedding... and after working with Sung and Josh and seeing what they did for us, we're extremely glad we did. Our friends raved about the "epic" short film Sung did for us. His style was different from a lot of the other wedding videos we saw. It really showed the emotion of our wedding day and brought a lot of tears to those close to us.

We met up with Sung prior to booking. We went over the details of the various packages he offered, reviewed any questions we had, and he showed us some of his past work. From that initial meeting, Sung made us feel very comfortable and he was someone we felt would be able to capture our wedding day the way we wanted.

On the day of our wedding, Sung and Josh showed up earlier than the time they said they would. They were super friendly and easy to work with the entire day. They even had an aerial cam that gave us awesome views of the ocean background that day. After our wedding, he was able to turnaround the short film video in 2 weeks!

Sung really blew our minds away with the short film he created for us. He went above our expectations and created a memory for us that we could watch for years to come. We are really glad we went with April Story Films because they really deliver!

We are so beyond happy with Sung and Josh from April Story Films. I found them on a wedding website and watched one of their videos and Immediately I stopped looking and I knew they were different from the rest. I spoke with Sung and he is just so kind and was a pleasure all around. Both Sung and Josh a very nice people with an amazing work ethic.

April Story Film shot our traditional wedding and also our big day wedding. They arrived with ample time to check out the venue and create the vision. They arrived looking very professional and they got to work. Even when the rain started to come down on us, they didn't let it stop them. They pushed through and used it to get the most beautiful shots.
We are most impressed with their creativity and hard working ethic. Sung has an amazing eye for detail and is an exceptional story teller. He knows how to combine all the shots to create a masterpiece. Our trailer was nothing less that perfection.

Everyone that has seen our wedding video literally cries or has a big emotional reaction to it (even strangers) lol. From the story telling, editing skills and amazing video shots, Sung and Josh created the most magical video of our wedding day.

Our wedding was captured with such emotion! I can't wait to look back at it 30 years from now and reminisce on our day. Not one detail was missed, I don't know how they do it but these guys are very very thorough and professional. You will not be disappointed.

April Story Films will wow you and exceed your expectations!

Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts for such an epic video!

I met with Sung prior to the wedding day to discuss every detail and I am glad we did, he made me feel very comfortable and assured us everything would go smoothly. The production time was very fast. The Cinematic Trailer was done within 1 week after the wedding!!!!!!

We recommend them to every bride and groom!! Thank you Sung and Josh for beautiful wedding videos that we will have forever!!!!

I called Sung for a wedding shoot on 04/11/2015 and he was very professional. This was my first wedding so I was very nervous about how to do anything, but Sung helped me through the entire process. He made sure to pick out the best location and had all his equipment prepped and ready to go. He even had a drone! Again, I was very new to the whole experience and it seemed very stressful, but Sung took care of everything.

Most importantly, after the wedding was done, he made sure to send everything in a timely manner. From what I hear wedding videos typically take 2-3 months to make, but Sung was able to send me everything in 1 month!

I definitely recommend him to all my friends and family.

"Beautiful~~~~~ speechless~~~~ congrats!!!!"
"Omg, I love this! They did such an awesome job! Most epic wedding video everrrr! "
"That was crazy good. I love all the beauty & happiness captured."

These were the few of the many responses we received from our family and friends after seeing the trailer.

Searching for a team to capture your special day in a very unique way isn't an easy task. For us we had trouble finding one because they all looked alike. Until we found April Story films. Seeing their work on their website, we knew that these guys were it not only because the deciding factor was that the Hubs wouldn't fall asleep watching their work.

Their professionalism is beyond their own industry standards along with their dedication and tenacity which can't be measured. It is transparent that they love what they do through their extreme attention to detail. They capture the essence of YOU by really taking the time to get to know you and what you would like hence creating a video that uniquely defines you as this exceptional couple.

You will have a set expectation from them but expect to be utterly surprised by the artistic talents of Sung and Josh. They will truly leave you speechless with their craftsmanship.

So if you decide not to have Sung and Josh capture your big day, I strongly suggest for you to get your head check out :D. So just stop here and book them already!

We can't tell you both how much we've enjoyed having you be a part of our blissful day! My parents and I have officially adopted you both into our family. We can't wait to see the full feature and will be in touch in a few years for our future baby's 1st birthday!

A million thanks!!!

First off, hiring a videographer for your wedding is a must. We had a fantastic overall experience with April Story Films. They provided us with several different options/packages and we chose the premium package with everything included. The price was extremely reasonable for what they offered in comparison to other companies - the cost of their premium package was the cost of most others' basic package.

The quality of their work is also great. As part of the package, we were given DVD copies of the full length film as well as a USB drive with lots of raw footage - all in high image quality. We love the cinematic trailer they created for us and they even ran the choice of music by us for approval before they finalized it.

The videographers themselves (Sung, Josh, and Eric) were all really easy to work with. They try to make you feel comfortable in awkward environments and they go above and beyond to try and make everything picture perfect. During our pre-wedding video shoot, they couldn't capture the perfect shot of the sunset they envisioned because of weather conditions, so instead, they asked us if we wanted to film just that shot on a different day, which meant Sung had to travel a couple hours just for shot that lasts about 5 seconds in our video. That's the kind of dedication they put into their work. The service was definitely top-notch.

In conclusion, we would recommend April Story Films without hesitation. You get more than what you pay for and you'll love the finished product.

April Story Films Company is by far the best in the business. My husband and I have searched for months before finding them. Other companies were good but didn't have the quality we was looking for! Until I found April Story Films! Sung was extremely quick with all correspondence and made me feel great about everything! Sung and his crew came the day of the wedding and most of the times, I didn't even notice them filming. They both have amazing personalities and they are super easy to work with.

We received our video shortly after our wedding and we were blown away!!! It was exactly what we wanted. They captured all the emotion of our day and we couldn't be happier! Their crazy cinematic wedding videos will BLOW YOUR MIND!!! Honestly they are worth every penny, if you are thinking about it, just email Sung, you won't regret it. Choosing The April Story Films Team was the best decision we made for our wedding!!!
My husband and I are not the type of people to write reviews, but they did such an outstanding job that it's only fair to make an exception. Not only do they deserve a raving review for all their hard work, but hopefully we can also provide some guidance to other couples who are in search of a reliable, friendly, professional, “EXTREMELY TALENTED VIDEOGRAPHERS”!!!

We're so grateful for all you did for us. Thank you immensely for sharing with us your awesome talent and capturing our day so flawlessly. We wish you the best always! From Frances and Patrick

I hired The April story films to film our wedding last year. We were extremely pleased with the final product. Sung and his crew were professional, creative and extremely accommodating. Pricing was very competitive. We feel we got more for our money than we could have expected. We would totally recommend them for anyone who is planning a wedding.

We absolutely loved working with April Story Films. They truly captured the fun and romantic vibe of the wedding night, and I and my husband probably have watched the video more than ten times right after we've got it. I highly recommend them to brides who want to have beautiful wedding video with reasonable price.

Two friendly guys! Not only friendly, but very skilled and dedicated to their work!
I was the one who actually got tired and wanted to wrap things up early, just like any other guys. However, Sung insisted and persuaded me to stay and film more videos. He told me that most people regret for not putting more time and effort, and he did not wanted me to feel that way in the future, regretting. I felt his passion and concerns very personally!
If you want someone who actually cares about your celebration instead of your money, these two are the ones you should shoot for.

Hire them now! Unbelievable!
You are looking for something unique, movie quality & one of kind... I did too. Watch their video! Watch just one of their videos and you'll be HOOKED! You will realize that each and every project that they work on is so unique and it is literally like watching a movie. There are different themes and stories to every project. My wife found April Story Films on facebook by accident and we both fell in love with their work. They've got skills!!!!! Sung and Josh both majored in movie production. Very creative. They are not just filming. They MAKE MOVIES!

You won't regret your decision =)

April Story Films will always have a special place in our heart. If you're looking for a wedding videographer, these guys are a must! Just take a look at some of their work on vimeo: vimeo.com/aprilstoryfilms The films will just speak for themselves. Every story they create is unique to the couple and the cuts are simply gorgeous. I was really pleased with our cinematic trailer, but when we received our full length film a month later, we were just blown away. The choice of music, the way a scene melds into another, it's genius and effortless.
Your wedding day goes by in a breeze, and it just becomes a distant whirl, but after watching the film, all the memories started rushing back to us and just left little goosebumps all over. It's been a couple months and we still watch our dvd, and LOVE showing it to our friends and family.

Sung and Josh are the most dedicated, passionate, and sweetest guys we've ever met, and we feel SO blessed to have them capture our day for us. They are truly deserving of the title of film-making. The duo have the vision, creativity, and passion to bring your story together. Thank you April Story Films for allowing us to cherish such a wonderful day in our lives.

I met these guys at a Tom n' Tom's Coffee in mid July while making preparations for the wedding with my bride to be. We had been looking for photographers and videographer's all week. But these guys were different. They were very friendly and passionate about what they do. They told us they would film us from the moment the bride arrived at the beauty salon to the moment the reception ended. They told us how important it was to capture every moment to be able to tell the most beautiful, romantic, and memorable story for our special day. They would always refer to our wedding day as a story. They came to our wedding rehearsal to see the location to make sure they were able to get as much coverage possible and that there would be no mistakes the day of. They made us feel great. We felt like movie stars when they would follow us and give us direction. I remember Sung, their main videographer, tell me "look at her and remember the first time you laid eyes on her". Every time he told us things like that, I was reminded of how long we had been together and how special this day was. The final cut was beautiful. Slow motion kisses, silhouettes of us holding hands in the sunset, beautiful scenery, and touching music captured our wedding day as a truly magical, beautiful love story that we will always remember.

I viewed a few of their trailers on their website, and after looking at their packages, I knew that I wanted April Story Films. Sung was super nice and quick in responding, and I was shocked to see what they were charging--in a good way! For long hours of coverage + DRONE FOOTAGE + trailer + full length wedding video, it was a no brainer!!! After my husband and I met with him we knew by his calm, reassuring, professional demeanor that he would be great to work with. Sung and Vicente arrived early on my wedding day, friendly and accommodating, knowing that it was a stressful day. He was always calm and encouraging, super easy to work with. They also stayed late and you could tell that they were there because they were passionate about their work and really wanted to do their best for our sake and our memories, not because we were paying them. The products spoke for themselves. The trailer arrived in about 3 week's time and was beautifully done. To take 10hrs of footage and condense them down to under 8 minutes in a short, magical love story with unconventional cinematography, editing, and music is amazing. We loved sending this out to our close family and friends. Just 3-4 months later, we received our full length wedding video, about 1 hr 15min long. It was perfect. We let Sung pick our music, knowing his expertise and experience, even though he had told me that we could pick it. Again, the editing, cinematography, scene selection, special shots he took for lighting, and the music --everything was priceless. DO NOT HESITATE to go with April Story for your wedding day! They are honest, passionate, and professional, and will not let you down. They may not have 100+ reviews on the knot.com like other companies, but they will NO DOUBT. They are top knotch and I hope to use them again personally but will continue to recommend them to anyone who is looking!
