    Hire this company!

    We had the best experience working with byDesign Photo + Film. From the start, the communication was amazing and our questions were always answered in a timely manner. Our photographers Jeremy and Daniel were so much fun to work with. Being someone who isn’t photogenic, I was so nervous about taking pictures, but after a phone call with Jeremy leading up to the wedding I knew I was in good hands. He truly made me feel so comfortable. Our pictures are flawless. I highly recommend hiring this company!

    byDesign Photo + Films's reply:

    Hello Brittani, thank you for choosing us! We're pleased to know that our communication was amazing and that Jeremy and Daniel made your experience enjoyable. It's also great to hear that Jeremy helped you feel comfortable, and we're thrilled to learn that your pictures turned out flawless.

    Exceptional Wedding Videography Experience with byDesign Films!

    We recently had the pleasure of working with byDesign Films for our wedding, and we couldn't be happier with the results! From start to finish, our experience with them was simply outstanding.

They were professional, unobtrusive, and truly understood how to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Their attention to detail was evident, ensuring that nothing was missed.

This allowed us to personalize our video to perfectly match our vision and tell our unique love story. The team was patient and accommodating, making sure our every request was met.

    Beautiful Photos

    We got married on 5/5/23 and hired ByDesign as our photographer. Our photographer Ronnie was great and since they are a bigger company we got our photos about 3 weeks after our wedding day, which we were really please about. The photos came out gorgeous and would definitely work with out photographer again.

    byDesign Photo + Films's reply:

    Hey Nancie, we're so grateful for your wonderful review! It brings us immense joy to know that we were able to capture the essence of your wedding day and deliver photographs that you love. Your warm and appreciative feedback regarding our star talent photographer, Ronnie, brings us immense joy. It is truly incredible to learn about the positive experience you had with him. It was an honor to be a part of your celebration and we're thrilled that you had a positive experience with us. Thank you for your support!

    A dream come true

    I could not be more grateful we chose this company to capture our wedding day and the beautiful moments it encompassed. From start to finish, including the introductory call through to the final product, everything was well-organized, detailed, personal and catering to our preferences. We planned this New York-wedding from California and felt so comfortable in their hands. Our photographer was a DREAM! We first met him for our engagement session and he went above and beyond! And our wedding pictures, my gosh - they are stunning and captured the true love expressed on that day. The icing on the cake was the video, which I may or may not watch every day haha. Not only is their work professional and very well done, but in their hands, you can rest assured your beautiful moments will be captured by their team.

    byDesign Photo + Films's reply:

    We're incredibly grateful for your positive review, Megan! It's wonderful to hear that you had a great experience with our wedding photography and cinematography services. Capturing the precious moments and emotions of your special day was a true privilege for us. We are so delighted to hear about your experience with our photographer and cinematographer. It is incredible to hear about such experiences all the time. Thank you for your kind words and for allowing us to be a part of your unforgettable memories.

    Couple and guests were amazed!!

    I cannot rave enough about Mike who was our photographer and Tom our videographer. A couple of my bridesmaids couldn’t make it to our wedding and Mike stepped in and helped me wherever I needed it! Our guests loved them and we are so in love with our pictures and videos. The whole team is responsive and very helpful

    An Amazing Wedding Experience

    We are so incredibly happy that we went with ByDesign for our videography. They were extremely helpful with customizing our videography package to match our vision for the wedding day. We purchased the same day edit package, so we could play our first look footage at the reception. The team was extremely timely and productive to make this happen in a short amount of time. Our friends and family were blown away with the short film and loved the ability to witness such a private and intimate moment for the two of us. It added a super personal and unique touch to our wedding that our guests had not seen done at other weddings. ByDesign is the reason this element was executed so well. Not to mention, our wedding day was outdoors for the first look, ceremony, and reception; a huge thunderstorm was in the forecast that day. They did an outstanding job of capturing aerial footage of the different locations before the terrible weather hit. For these reasons, we are extremely pleased and glad we made the decision to go with ByDesign. We look forward to relive our wedding day on our one year anniversary and cannot wait to show our children in years to come. :)

    The best film team there ever was!

    The byDesign team exceeded every expectation I had. From the very beginning, I felt like capturing every moment was their top priority, and they went above and beyond throughout the entire day. Tim also arrived early to check in with me, see what I needed, and worked with the rest of my vendor team to truly capture everything! I was so grateful and overwhelmed with all that our wedding day brought, and I am so confident that the video footage will help us relive the magic and emotion for the years to come!

    Goosebumps!

    It was a little over our budget to get ByDesign Films, but after looking through so many other videos from other suppliers for so many days and hours... we found that their style, cinematography, storytelling, and package options were what we found most suitable for us! I edit videos myself, so I have very specific things I am looking for in edited videos. After we got our Instagram video and our Highlight Film, my husband and I were just so blown away! They truly captured the best parts of our special day and wove them together so beautifully. They took into consideration all my very detailed requests, and I really appreciated that. Their videographers were so flexible and friendly on the day of our wedding and made us feel so at ease. Their coordinating team was also amazing, efficient, and very professional. My husband and I have absolutely no regrets and we are so very happy that we invested in a wedding video with this vendor! :)

    We couldn’t be happier with by Design Films as the videographer for our wedding. From the very beginning the team was responsive and helpful with suggestions to help make the day one we would never forget. The videographers day of were not only very professional but also stayed behind the scenes while capturing the evening. We can’t wait to see the final product, thank you for memorializing our wedding!!!

    byDesign was probably the most easy to coordinate, most flawless parts of our entire wedding. Our project manager, Vanessa Walden, was an absolute dream. She was incredibly responsive and always respectful and professional. She handled all of my requests and questions promptly and remained extremely organized, kind and courteous throughout the entire process. On the day of filming, our videographer, Larry, was awesome. He was kind and respectful and took amazing footage! The entire process far exceeded my expectations and the films are beautiful. The sound quality and resolution are top notch.

    The surprise of a lifetime was made possible by the excellent team at byDesign Films. My wife and I previously agreed not to hire a videographer to save money, but on Christmas morning she woke up to two beautiful films of our wedding day. From the very beginning, byDesign films was extremely accommodating with this unique request. Brittany was great at presenting the options and explainging every process along the way. Our videographers, Larry and Christopher, were very talented and professional. They embraced the surprise and operated under the disguise of photography students. I still can't believe how they captured every moment without drawing any attention. Months after our wedding, we were introduced to Vanessa who delivered our films. Vanessa & Brittany were truly amazing to work with, and made the surprise possible. As for the films: They look like Hollywood movies! Every aspect of these films was top notch. From the music, to the action shots, byDesign Films certainly delivered.
