    Worth the investment!

    I spent HOURS AND HOURS watching wedding videos online while I was looking for the right videographer for our wedding. Like seriously I think I researched around 70 different videographers (yes, I know). When my partner and I originally decided to invest into documenting our day with video, we wanted to make sure we picked the right videographer to capture everything and create a fun, exciting video that we would love to watch over and over. And, most importantly, we needed a videographer that we trusted so we weren’t stressed about video on the day of the wedding. We were SO HAPPY that Emerald Media was available on our wedding date when we reached out to them - we didn’t have a backup option in mind! At first my partner was a little bit worried that there would be too many people around us throughout the day (two videographers plus two photographers that we’d also hired) but honestly, Tamara and Lindsay did such a great job of blending into the background that we hardly even noticed them during the wedding and reception. They delivered the social media preview while we were on our honeymoon and we LOVED watching it - over and over! They did a perfect job of capturing the energy of our day. We were so excited to get the rest of our videos: the highlight film as well as the ceremony, toasts, and dances!! We had some follow-up requests and they’ve been super accommodating and easy to work with, which we really appreciate! My partner and I are really happy that we hired Emerald Media as our wedding videographer and would highly recommend them to any couples looking for wedding videography!

    Best way to remember your wedding

    Have you seen their video of our wedding? Amazeballs. They did an amazing job editing, really nice video and audio cuts. And they were so fun to just have their. I wanna hang out with them more!

    Married couples told us they were most happy they got a videographer, and most regretted not hiring a videographer. And it's so worth it. At least if you hire Emerald Media.

    Stunning videography

    Tamara and Lindsay are so easy to work with and the end product is exceptional, even better than I had hoped for. After seeing their work my daughter wanted Emerald Media and thankfully they were available for her date. They took the time to understand what my daughter wanted and they delivered an amazing video that was exactly what we were wanting. They captured the joy and emotions of the day from start to finish. Emerald Media doesn’t just give you a video of the event they give you a movie studio quality product that allows you to relive and share the full experience and to feel the emotions that existed in that moment every time you watch.

    Simply the best!

    Emerald Media was the first vendor I booked for our wedding, and hands-down the easiest and best choice we made!

    I watched a LOT of wedding videos from different videographers. Emerald Media's work stands out because instead of putting together a video following a cookie-cutter formula, Tamara and Lindsay create beautiful stories that uniquely capture the emotions and experience of the day. Emerald Media's package prices are really great for the unmatched quality of the final product.

    We had a small backyard wedding due to covid, and Tamara and Lindsay were lovely to work with, and super flexible with all our last-minute planning. We weren't sure we'd have enough "content" for a video, but we LOVED the highlight video and watching it brings back all the emotions we felt that day.

    Lastly, Tamara is quick with editing! We received our full highlight video about a month after our wedding, and they surprised us with a sneak peek video the day after! We watched it, I teared up, and my husband said "this is very good. let's watch it again.". That's a five star review from him! :D

    If you're on the fence about getting a videographer for your wedding, do it! We are so happy with our decision. And if you're looking for a videographer, stop your search now and go with Tamara and Lindsay!

    Best videography team!!

    Working with Lindsay and Tamara was such a joy! Their work really speaks for itself, and our wedding video turned out better than we could have ever hoped! We even had a 60 second highlight film within a day following our wedding! They somehow captured all the big and little moments over the course of our entire day, and always made us feel super comfortable in front of the camera. I would recommend them over and over to all those having a wedding, you won't regret it!

    Well worth it!!

    Tamara and Lindsay with Emerald Media did an incredible job capturing our intimate wedding. We were referred to Emerald Media by our officiant, who had worked with them before. When my husband and I watched the videos of other weddings/elopement they’d done on their website, we cried (and we didn’t even know any of the people in the videos)! We knew we had to have them as part of our day, and we were right. They captured some amazing angles of our venue and so many special moments between us, our families and friends, etc. I was worried having videographers would be intrusive at such a small wedding, but they blended right in with everyone. They uploaded our teaser video only a few days after the wedding- we were surprised at how quickly they did it. We bawled our eyes out watching ans shared it with our friends and family on social media- we got the most amazing response from everyone saying how beautiful it was. We received the full video only a few weeks after the wedding, and it was just as perfect. I think the price was very fair, and I highly recommend investing in them for your wedding, since these videos you can save for your children and grandchildren to watch in years to come.

    Best videographer ever!

    I don't know how to describe the skills of these two wonderful ladies. Their was no awkward poses or pauses, but everything just flows like the water. From the elopement videos to the trash the dress session, their work speaks volumes! Likes WAAAAAAAAAAW! My husband and I felt like we were in the movie scenes. They capture the emotions of the surroundings, nature, and everything. I can guarantee you that you won't be disappointed hiring them. I can't stop watching it and we received a lot of compliments. I'll be recommending them to everyone definitely!

    Tamara was wonderful to work with. Very responsive and friendly. Showed up right on time day of and got to work immediately. We had our recap within 3 weeks, and the full package in less than 2 months. Everything was beautifully done. I didn't take advantage of it, but she was even willing to help try and fill any gaps when I let her know our photographers lost many of our photos.

    I would 100% recommend Emerald Media to do your wedding video. Tamara was super professional, down to earth and friendly. My photographer had great things to say about her which is good because you don't want your photographer and videographer to be in each other's way. A wedding video was that "nice to have" on the budget for a long time, but I'm so glad I threw that into the "need to have" because the video was spectacular! I think a bride is both critical and biased on of her own wedding video so I wanted to let others know that I've heard from friends/cousins that have said that ours was the best wedding video that they've seen....ever. Tamara has a gift for capturing moments on film but I'd say her strong suit lies in editing. I gave very little direction just said "put the vows over getting ready shots and make sure my grandma is in the video", that's it!

    We were in a pinch about a videographer, as our original contact got into a luging accident 3 days prior to our wedding (I'm not even kidding!). We were searching like a crazy to find a videographer that wasn't trying to capitalize on our (and our original videographer's!) misfortune. It's almost as if the people we were contacting wanted to charge us a fortune, just because it was last minute. We found Emerald Media, spoke to Tamara and instantly worked something out. They had 3 videographers capturing 3 different angles, they mic'd everyone up, were professional, and so responsive throughout the whole process. Even after the event, we contacted Emerald Media because our photographer wasn't able to capture a special moment for us, and they worked with us to get screenshots of their footage that worked for what we were looking for. They were honestly a blessing to find so late in the game! I would recommend them to anyone looking for high quality videography services, who are responsive, professional, and great at what they do!

    Tamara was SO responsive from the first moment I emailed her asking general questions about the company and pricing etc. She was available for an in-person meeting, and she was so organized and genuinely excited to share our day with us. I never once worried about any piece of the videography component of the wedding - as she made us feel so confident that everything was under control - and it was!

    We can't ever thank Emerald Media enough for capturing our special day so perfectly! We've watched the video countless times and with each viewing we're brought to tears. Our families and friends can't get over how well done the highlight video is either - we all love it so much!

    Thank you for sharing your time and talent with us, and for giving us the most memorable keepsake from our wedding that we could ever have. It means the world to us and we couldn't be more pleased with the product and the ease and joy of working with you guys.

    Forever grateful,
    Anna and Jordan

    Did a wonderful job and it couldn't have turned out better! Professional service and excellent quality video. The drone shots were perfect because we chartered a boat for cocktail hours. They got shots we never thought were possible. Thanks Emerald Media!!!!!!!

    Hands down, the best and easiest vendor we hired! My husband and I live in NYC but we were getting married in Seattle. Tamara was quick to respond to our questions, was super responsive throughout the planning stages and were willing to work around our tight schedule the one day we were in Seattle before the wedding. All things that were tremendously helpful when planning a wedding from NYC. We ordered the Emerald Package, which includes all the types of videos you could ever want or need from your wedding at an incredibly affordable price. Not only that but Tamara and her team were flexible and willing to change out a couple of the videos for other things that fit our needs. For example, instead of several highlight videos of varying lengths, they worked with us to set up a video guestbook where our guests could leave well wishes and advice during cocktail hour. Tamara was so supportive and flexible to all the different ways we wanted to capture our wedding.

    But the real reason we are so pleased with Emerald Media is the quality of their work. So many of our guests said they cried all over again after watching our wedding video. The quality is crisp, clean, and clear. We wanted our videographer to take a cinematic approach to editing. Watching the videos, you definitely feel like you are starring in your own movie. Without much caption or commentary, the editing was done in a way where the clips tell the story. It was exactly what we wanted. They were also non-intrusive throughout the ceremony and reception. Tamara arrived on time to our bridal suite and worked seamlessly with our photographer to capture all the important moments of the day. I don't think I saw them once during the reception but it is obvious from the footage that they did not miss a single moment. They were just that good.

    If all of this wasn't enough, Tamara stood out once again for how quickly she turned around her work. In less than two weeks, Tamara had already completed our Thank You

    Rarely do I give such effusive praise of any service and/or vendor, but the professionalism and product were nothing short of amazing. When I first heard that my wife was interested in a videographer, I was hesitant given the many other costs of the wedding and felt that it could be redundant given that we had hired a photographer. Nothing could have been further from the truth - upon receiving first cut of our highlight video, I immediately called my wife to thank her (and apologize for my skepticism) as the artistry and emotion of the video are irreplaceable. We still watch it every few days. The two-person crew from the day of our wedding were kind, flexible and knowledgeable, and we couldn't have asked for better communication along the way. We received online previews, DVDs in personalized boxes, and a thumb drive of all images all for an unbelievable low price. If you can only afford to hire a few vendors for your wedding, Emerald Media is a MUST.

    Wonderful videographers! They were professional and extremely hard working and captured our wedding in every way we wanted and needed in order to remember our special day! We barely noticed they were there but they still were able to capture so much of our special day! Would highly recommend them for any of your video needs!

    I absolutely love our short wedding video, they did a great job! We also just received our full length DVD with the ceremony and toasts/speeches. I'm very impressed how well they pay attention to details. Very professional in capturing our special day. Great ladies to work with. Truly understand what a bride and groom are hoping to capture and remember from the day. They got everything and I hardly noticed they were with us all day, didn't feel overwhelmed by them and they worked side by side with our photographer extremely well! I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to capture their special day on film!

    AMAZING, incredible, talented. Tamara and team at Emerald Media took exactly what I thought was the most important in our wedding (vows and toasts) and overlaid the audio on a gorgeou montage, complete with drone footage of the venue! They were so professional and friendly on the day of the wedding and around the video in just a few days. Highly recommend!

    Tamara is absolutely an artist! We've had so many compliments about the highlight video for our wedding. She captured the atmosphere and our personalities perfectly! I would definitely recommend her to everyone I know.

    Tamara is absolutely amazing. I cannot say enough positive things about her because I could go on for days. Before booking, I was blown away by her sample portfolio, and now having my own wedding video, I could not be happier or more pleased with services! She is professional, personable, prompt, and overall amazing.
    She is truly gifted with the camera and was well worth every penny.
    The video for an event is something you will have forever, and I couldn't be more happy that we went with Emerald Media for this special day.

    Emerald Media was GREAT to work with. Tamara is a true professional with years of experience in video production. We were so lucky to find her right when she launched her own company for wedding videography. We interviewed numerous videographers in Seattle and out of everyone, she was the most professional, personable, and humble person we talked with. She was very clear that it was "our wedding" and that she would do her utmost to capture our vision. She also took my music suggestions (which was very important to me), while other videographers challenged me on that request because they wanted full creative control over our wedding video. Her packages were extremely competitive for the quality and speed at which she delivered the final edits. Our 2 min teaser video was finished a week after our wedding and the longer version was ready about three weeks later. During the actual wedding, she and her video assistant worked seamlessly in the background and were barely noticeable during the ceremony and reception. She was also very responsive in her communications with us - I couldn't recommend her more and I'm so glad we got her to shoot the wedding.

    Everything was great from start to finish! They were so flexible and easy to work during the planning stages. On the day of the wedding, they arrived right on time and jumped right in. They kind of blended right in and we had no idea they were even there, but they knew exactly what to shoot and captured all of the moments we asked for during the planning stage. Our experience with them could not have been better!

    Two days after the ceremony, they had already completed a highlight reel and posted it so friends and family could see it. When I watched it for the first time, I couldn't believe all the shots they got. The video seemed like they had cameras everywhere, but we hardly noticed them during the ceremony. A couple of short weeks later we had the long edit on DVD and thumbdrive. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but there are no words I can write to do justice to the video they made for us. Take a look for yourself if you'd like https://vimeo.com/167009718

    I cannot say enough nice things about Emerald Media Services, they were absolutely outstanding!

    Thank you, Kristi! We loved working with you and Steve! We wish the best for you two and the dogs!

    Amazing work! I can't believe we almost went without a videographer. That would have been the biggest mistaken considering how incredible our video turned out and how happy we are to have one to look back on. Emerald media is affordable, reliable, professional and consists of extremely talented people. We love what they have done and you will too!

    Emerald Media's reply:

    Thank you Sophia! We loved working with you and Elizabeth and wish you both the best!
