Christy Sent on 04/22/2022BEST Videographer EVER!!!
Ryan is fantastic! He is super friendly and easy to talk to. He truly cares what wedding plans you have for your special day.
I have no regrets at all having Ryan as my videographer on my autumn wedding day of 2021. While I was watching the video he made, it reminded me all the best moments that happened and how joyful I was to marry my best friend! My whole family loved watching it as well! It was definitely worth the wait!
Pictures are certainly nice to have, but watching a video really feels like you are there reliving all the moments again. The video was beautifully done! 😄 And I also loved which pictures he used for my DVD! He has great taste! -

Ryan was fantastic! Even though he had another engagement scheduled for the same day as our sons, he worked out a plan and pulled through with flying colors. I can't think of one area that he could improve on. He even provided a very special flash drive in a box to top things off.
Everything about Vocal Point Digital Media was superb!!! -

Amazing... with all of the changes due to COVID-19, they were willing to travel to a new venue. Ryan captures incredible moments and we can not wait to see the finished product- thank you Ryan -

Alyssa Sent on 01/04/2015Ryan (focal point media) and team was a wedding highlight!! I was just going to have one of my friends video tape the wedding, then I came across a write up about focal point media in the newspaper. I called him immediately! After talking with him I went straight to my fiance and told I had to have him. even though he was not in our budget, he was worth every penny! He was so understanding, went out of his way to answer all my questions, give me advice, make suggestions all without ever making us feel like he was trying to sale me something. He felt like a friend and such a supporter. He listened to my outrageous ideas and didn't blink an eye. Everything was possible and was down to make our dream come true! He was so pleasant to work with and has a great sense of humor. We both felt so comfortable around him that having a camera on us felt natural because he was so delightful, easy going and funny. We had a ball with him and his team. He captures the moments you never want to forget and relive over and over. Hiring focal point and having a video of our wedding is the greatest wedding gift we could have asked for. If you want a video that is going to be 100% awesome and a VERY pleasant experience on the business end of things then do yourselves a favor and HIRE FOCAL POINT!! It's the only way to go! The reviews say it all! -

Lauren Sent on 08/20/2012Ryan did a glorious job on my daughter’s wedding video.. he was just everywhere and caught the most amazing things. I saw his demo video when we were trying to decide who to hire and I remember thinking, yea but that is probably some special once in a life time kind of thing he caught with them. We went ahead and hired him and… what he created for us was completely beyond our expectations and so much more lovely than the demo. His other strong point is his editing… he makes the whole thing a complete joy to watch over and over. We recommend him greatly. One of the best things we did for the wedding. Denise Cook -

Summer Sent on 07/29/2012WOW! Ryan and his assistant, Gary, were AMAZING videographers! I’m sure most brides have heard from other married people how much the video of your wedding means to you after the fact, and I think that once you see his wedding videos you will completely understand! He is the best of the best in the Salem/Portland area, and we are so happy with our choice! On the wedding day, it was so fun to have them there. They were always so courteous, and most of the time you hardly noticed they were there unless they were making you laugh. They are so professional, talented, artistic, and have thee best equipment. Focal Point was one of my absolute favorite vendors, and I would absolutely recommend them 110%!! -

Lindsay Sent on 07/27/2012The moment for every bride will come when she gets to answer this question... "Do I have videographer or not?". I for one, have never debated this. I KNEW that having video of my wedding would be my most treasured item. And that has absolutely been the case. Photos are amazing and important too, but video captures the MOMENTS. It captures the feelings, it captures the incredible love and its true what they say about not remembering anything from the wedding. My wedding was a week ago, and I already don't remember much. If you do ANYTHING, please MAKE room in your budget for video. It should be the first thing that you budget for! (even above the dress!!!)
Focal Point Digital Media was absolutely beyond my expectations. Ryan was perfection. They are so wonderful to work with and they think of all those little details so you don't have to. Half the time I forgot that he was even there filming. If you were to ask me on a scale of 1 to 10 how satisfied I am with Focal Point and my decision to have video done, it would be a 100. My theatric trailer was done 5 days after my wedding, and it made everyone cry. Even people who didn't know me. HAHA. That is how good these guys are. My trailer right now is my most treasured item, and I have probably watched it 1000 times already. They are the best of the best. It truly doesn't get any better.
My advice to every bride will be "Do NOT have your wedding without Focal Point Digital Media. Other then marrying my husband it was the best decision I ever made."

Kristy Sent on 02/15/2012I absolutely cannot say enough good things about Ryan and Focal Point Media. Ryan was a great pleasure to work with, very laid back and funny and personable, but also very professional and obviously knows his stuff! We had a tight schedule between the ceremony and reception, but Ryan was perfectly calm and very organized, handled it perfectly. He was also great about suggesting various shots (and caught some amazing moments when I had no idea he was even there! hello disco moment with my dude of honor...), but also kept us very comfortable and relaxed (I was worried about feeling like a "deer in the headlights" with so many cameras around).
Then of course we were absolutely blown away by our wedding video!! Classy and artistic and captured "us" so perfectly. I really don't know how Ryan does it, it's amazing. And it's just so awesome to be able to see "your day" again (and again and again!)...I am so so so glad we had Ryan as our videographer.
I know that hiring a videographer may seem like an extravagance. I promise, when the day of your wedding comes and then is gone in the blink of an eye, you will be so glad that Ryan was there to capture all the moments for you to relive later! Video is a completely different feel than photographs, you NEED both! I remember being SO HAPPY on my wedding day that Ryan was there to capture the day for us, and that came back tenfold when we watched our video afterwards. It's amazing. HIRE THIS GUY!! You will be so so so glad you did. -

Danika Sent on 12/08/2011Ryan did an amazing job with our wedding video. Watching our video was like reliving the night again. He really captured our personalities throughout the video and those important unforgettable moments. The editing was smooth, romantic and fun. Working with him was also a pleasure. He was flexible and really listened to what we wanted from our video. I would definitely recommend using Focal Point to capture your special day. I am so thankful to have our wedding video! -

Tresa Sent on 09/12/2008Ryan and his crew are absolute genius. First of all, when we first met ~ Ryan listened to everything I had to say, whether it was relevant or not! He was so patient. Then during the wedding, I barely noticed that they were there. You know how some photographers just have that "thing" where you don't even notice them? Well, there were 3 guys with video cameras, and they had that "thing." Unbelievable.
I wanted a video of the wedding, because I thought it would be fun to have something to look back at, but I had no idea it was going to be so amazing. They captured everything. EVERYTHING. I don't know how else to say this, but they did a perfect job. They were the nicest guys in the world, and did an absolute perfect job with everything. It is worth every dime! Do yourself a favor and hire these guys! Oh hey, and ladies.. he made it so that I NEVER looked bad in any shot. Now that takes talent! -
Emily Sent on 12/31/2017Ryan filmed my late husband and I's wedding a few years ago. We honestly debated on whether or not to do it as our budget was tight, but I'm forever grateful that we did! Not only was it a stunning way to share our special day with friends and family who weren't able to attend our wedding, it was the most precious gift to cherish when my husband was unexpectedly called to heaven. God reedeemed my life and brought me the most wonderful man! As we were planning our wedding, having Ryan do the videography was top on my wish list! Even though we were getting married half a country away, I knew without hestitation, the investment and flying him out here would be 100% worth it! He's the best of the best, and I'd recommend him to anyone who wants to be able to share the most beautiful story of their wedding day for years to come!!
