Erin Sent on 12/19/2022Truly THE Best of the Best
Choosing a videographer for your wedding day can seem like a hard decision to make, with there being so many options out there, but I promise you that you truly will not go wrong with choosing Ricki and Genessis at Memory Lane Productions. Ricki and Genessis are two of THE most genuine individuals my husband and I have ever met! The way they both care so much about their clients, and the time that they take to get to know the couples that they are serving is simply amazing. My husband and I were so incredibly pleased with their professionalism, but most importantly with the fact that they truly felt like family on our wedding day. They both captured our special day so beautifully, and they truly listened to each request that we had for the shots that we wanted to be captured. They both went above and beyond to make sure we were relaxed and having fun on our wedding day. We are so obsessed with the way our wedding day videos turned out, and the amount of time and heart that Ricki and Genessis put into crafting our wedding videos is outstanding. They both pulled out all the stops to make sure our day was captured so perfectly. Trust us when we say that Ricki and Genessis are the best of the best! You don't want to miss out on having these two wonderful souls capture your special day as welll!

Riki did such an awesome job! We got so many compliments on our wedding videos. He definitely takes the time to work with you and is there to answer all the questions to you may have. Weddings can be so stressful and he definitely takes the edge off and makes it so much fun so it’s not always serious. 10/10 recommend without a doubt!! Thank you Riki for capturing the best day of my life. ☺️💗 -

Riki was absolutely incredible! We truly couldn’t have picked a better person to film our wedding. From the very beginning, his professionalism and passion for what he does were so clear. He helped us with a beautiful pre-wedding shoot up in Flagstaff that turned out absolutely stunning. That experience alone showed us how talented he is and how much heart he puts into his work.
On our wedding day, Riki fit right in with everyone. Guests were constantly commenting on how much they loved him and the energy he brought. He has a way of making you feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera, which made such a difference for us. Beyond just filming, he genuinely cared about us as people. He took time throughout the day to check in on my wife and me to make sure we were okay and reminded us that if we needed anything at all, he would make it happen. That level of care meant more than we can say.
You can truly tell that Riki loves what he does, it’s not just a job for him, it’s a passion. We are beyond grateful for the incredible memories he captured and can’t thank him enough for everything he did to make our wedding weekend so special. -

Riki Rocks!!!
Riki was the best videographer we ever could have asked for! We found him through watching a friend’s wedding video and we were hooked! He truly knows what he’s doing! He was incredibly responsive and professional! We were blown away from every little detail he captured. You can see how passionate he is in his work. We loved how he was our hype man the whole day too! Making us laugh, getting great footage, and all around an amazing person to be around. We 100% recommend him to anyone we can! His ability to capture the perfect moments is what sets him out from the crowd! We had the best day ever and now we have all this footage to look back on and enjoy! We love you Riki!! -

Andrea Sent on 01/14/2026The BEST to ever do it!
Riki perfectly captured our day.
Every time I watch our video back, I feel every emotion I felt that day, and it’s like I’m back in my wedding dress marrying my best friend all over again.
We had the best day ever, full of belly laughs, happy tears, and details that made the day feel like us. Riki captured every single bit of it - there’s nothing that went unnoticed, no angle he didn’t capture, and no reaction he missed.
He is the ultimate hype man, the calm in all the chaos, and a graceful professional through it all. We are so happy to have all of these memories to look back on as the perfect reflection of our day.
Riki and Emily with Emily Em Photography collaborated as our photo/video team, and they were incredible together. They each read the other’s mind and work seamlessly to create not only a beautiful product, but an incredible vibe.
They kept us on schedule without me ever looking at a clock - to this day I’ll never know if we were on time or not because they made me feel so stress-free!
Working with vendors who you can also call friends is truly an honor - I can’t recommend having Riki in your corner enough! We adore him and are SO grateful he captured our day. -

Working with Riki as our wedding videographer was truly one of the best decisions we made. Even though we haven’t received our full film yet, we already know it’s going to be unbelievable because the social media video he created immediately after the wedding absolutely blew us away. It was emotional, fun, beautifully edited, and somehow managed to capture the exact energy and magic of our day in just a short clip. If the teaser alone looks like that, I can’t imagine how stunning the full video will be.
But what really made Riki unforgettable wasn’t just his talent — it was the energy he brought to every single moment. From the minute he arrived, he instantly added so much fun, excitement, and confidence to the day. He made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, helped guide us through moments without ever making anything feel forced, and hyped us up in ways that made us feel like movie stars. His personality is electric in the best way, and you can feel how much he loves what he does.
Everyone adored him. Our wedding party, our families, even our guests kept telling us how much they loved his vibe, his kindness, and how seamlessly he blended into the day while still capturing everything. He really became part of the celebration, not just someone documenting it.
Riki is unbelievably talented, incredibly fun, and such a positive force to have on your wedding day. We are SO excited to see the final film because if the preview is any indication, we know it’s going to be something we treasure forever. Could not recommend him more — he is truly one of a kind -

Shelby Sent on 09/22/2025Lock him down ASAP!!!
We are beyond grateful for the incredible work Riki did in capturing our wedding day. From start to finish, he was professional, easy to communicate with, and so thoughtful about every detail. The final video is absolutely stunning — it perfectly captured the emotions, the laughter, and all the little moments we’ll want to relive forever. Watching it truly feels like being transported back to the day, which is such a gift. His editing style is beautiful and timeless, and we couldn’t be happier that we chose him to document one of the most important days of our lives. Highly recommend Riki to anyone looking for a videographer who truly cares about his work and his clients! -

Kn White Sent on 09/02/202510/10 Best Videographer!!
Cannot stop watching the videos Riki provided us with! We met him at a Bella Rose open house, and right away, Riki was able to describe our vision spot on. I knew from that moment that it would be a privilege to work with him for the happiest day of our life. He surprised us with all the details before, during, and after our wedding day. It was such a joy to have his presence there, and all my family and loved ones agreed. Highly recommend you hire him for your videography needs asap - so worth it!!! -

Memory Lane Productions truly gave us the best gift of being able to relive our wedding day forever!! Riki is so incredibly talented - he captured all the best and unexpected moments of our day. We cried, we laughed, and the video footage truly took us back to that day. As a person, he is incredible to have at your wedding. He was such a calming and funny presence throughout the day, made you feel like you’ve known him forever, and our crew loved him as much as we did! The amount of care and thought he put into our wedding footage was incredible. We were blown away by his talent! We firmly believe now that every couple should have a wedding video and Riki made ours one of a kind - it was so tailored to our personalities. The camcorder footage was a major highlight and we had tons of guests talking about how they wish they want/wanted it for theirs. If you are debating doing a video, DO IT! If you want an incredible video that transports you back in time to your wedding day and brings back all the emotions, HIRE MEMORY LANE. We will forever be thankful for Riki and our beautiful wedding memories caught on video. -

Miyuki Sent on 02/12/2025100% Recommend!!
Our experience with Riki was hands down the BEST we could’ve asked for out of a videographer. Riki truly went above and beyond and we could not recommend enough. He always responded super quickly and we felt prioritized from the moment we inquired with him. He was super kind and easy to talk to, and the process was so smooth with Riki. On the actual wedding day, Riki made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and he even partied with us on the dance floor capturing so many priceless moments with our guests. We got so many compliments from our friends & family on how much they loved Riki at our wedding. Our wedding film was so perfect and it truly captured every moment of our wedding day beautifully. Additionally, all the extra footage we received is something I will cherish forever and so grateful I have to look back on years in the future. If you are debating on booking Riki, DO IT!!! You won’t regret it! -

Savannah Sent on 01/10/2025Unforgettable experience!
Rikki and his team perfectly captured my wedding day from start to finish. Not only did they make us feel calm and comfortable, they even got us to laugh (a lot). The quality of service and product was unmatched! Rikki gave both bride and groom parties camcorders to record "behind the scenes" and incorporated it into our full wedding video which was a beautiful and personal touch. I will never forget the first time watching my full wedding highlight film - my husband and I were in tears within the first minute. The transitions, music and editing was seamless and really makes you feel the emotion of the day. Everything about Rikki and his team was perfect! I would highly recommend using them :) Thank you so much Rikki for an unforgettable experience! -

My wife and I worked with Riki from Memory Lane Productions to capture our wedding and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Riki made the process extremely simple and stress free, he was great at communicating with us and keeping us up to date with information, he was a blast to work with, and overall he made it an experience we’ll never forget. When the day came he made it a light hearted and fun environment allowing us to be our natural selves. We would recommend Memory Lane Productions to anyone who wants to relive their special day for decades to come. -

Jaw dropping, gagworthy, ICONIC! The way Memory Lane Productions captured our big day was more than we could have ever imagined. There were so many moments and they captured all the best and some we missed. And to see it all unfold, we can truly relive that day from watching our wedding film. Plus added bonus we got extra footage for toasts, the ceremony AND raw footage! Being able to see everything again was truly amazing and we couldn't have asked for anything more. Memory Lane Productions were our hype people and still managed to blend in with our guests to get all the footage. The finished product had us in tears. I would recommend anyone to hire them for your big day! -

Estefania Sent on 10/14/2023Best videographer team EVER!
I am so glad we chose Memory Lane for our big day. I can't even believe that at some point we were doubting investing on videographer services. Our videos are amazing. I honestly cried the second I saw them because it really felt like I was reliving the most wonderful day of my life (that by the way went by faster than anticipated, so I am so glad Riki and Ben were there to capture those moments forever for us).
Riki and Gen went above and beyond from the second we decided to book their services. Their communication was nothing but superb. I was worried about having a bilingual videographer that was able to understand and capture the complete essence of our vision, and let me tell you, THEY ABSOLUTELY KILLED IT!
They just have this way or really bringing the best out of people, making you feel comfortable, beautiful, and confident. It was a blast having them around, they were so creative, professional, and there's just this personal touch to everything they do. They really care about you, and capturing every beautiful moment.
I am honestly beyond grateful to have found them. Our highlight video is the most beautiful thing, and I cannot wait to show our future kids and family. I am so thankful to this team for gifting us the most beautifully captured memories, they are memory magicians! WHAT A TALENT!
If you're considering hiring them, or going back and forth o whether you need a videographer team, TRUST ME, Just DO IT! Don't sleep on this team. I promise you, they'll exceed your expectations every single time. -

Aly C. Sent on 03/29/2023Book them. Run. Do it!!!!!
I could never, ever say enough incredible things about these two, their personalities and their work. Never. They were easily a highlight of my day, especially when our photographers were not. The fit so easily into our day and made it feel natural for them to be there. They got every shot we asked for, and more. The final product had me crying only a few seconds in. It was literally perfect. If you're contemplating whether a videographer is worth it, I can say with Memory Lane Productions, it is worth it 1000%. I'm gonna go waste my day re-watching the video. Go book them!!!!! And thank you Riki and Genessis❤️ -

Highly recommend!
My husband and I used Riki and Genesis’ photography services for our maternity/pregnancy announcement photoshoot. We could not thank them enough for their flexibility with scheduling and quick responsiveness. They are such humorous and friendly people that smiling in front of them came off genuine and natural. Their artistic eye, skillful editing, and beautifully selected location for the photoshoot all worked together so well in capturing the magic and natural beauty. We highly recommend you use them! We are already looking to use them for our newborn pics when our baby is born and future family photos! -

Fun, professional, and completely exceeded my expectations!
We booked Memory Lane for our maternity photoshoot for our 3rd baby, and we (I) procrastinated and cut it VERY close to my due date and they were able to offer us the perfect flexibility to ensure we had the photos done before baby was born.
I also wanted to have some photos include my 2 older boys who are 5 and 2.5, so definitely not easy ages to deal with when wanting photos - but Riki and Genesis were amazing with them and kept them laughing, smiling or at least looking at the camera when my youngest was growing restless. I’m so impressed by how many cute photos they got with the kids in them!
Genesis had so many great ideas for poses that I got such a good variety of photos that I am so so happy with. Some of the poses made me feel absolutely ridiculous during the shoot, but the end result was so worth it… so TRUST HER! 😉
Both Riki and Genesis were so sweet, so accommodating, had such great ideas, and paid such close attention to detail - I will for SURE be booking future photoshoots with them. Overall, they were amazing to work with. -

Karissa Sent on 03/07/2023Amazing team
During the planning of our big day, my wife and I went back and forth on whether or not to include a videographer in the budget. We asked each other questions like, “is it worth the investment?”, and “wouldn’t professional pictures accomplish the same goal?”. Post-wedding and now having viewed the beautifully made video from Memory Lane Productions more times than I can count, I am so happy this amazing husband and wife team were there to capture the priceless memories that seemed to come and go so fast in the moment. Watching my wife’s father smile with pure joy as he walked her down the aisle, or capturing the raw emotion and admiration when finally getting to see My Bride on her way to meet me at the altar. Being able to cuddle up next to each other and relive these and a dozen more memories was well worth the investment!! I’m so glad we chose Memory Lane!!! What they created for us fit our personality and the celebration perfectly. They were kind, professional, and we even caught Riki busting a move on the dance floor a few times while capturing the fun on film! We would absolutely recommend Memory Lane without hesitation. -

Riki and Genessis were amazing! I'm so glad they were there to capture our perfect day! I love looking back at the video. It was so cool how they edited a short video to put on social media. And we received the video so quickly after the wedding. I will definitely be recommending them! -

AMAZING duo videographers!
Im so very grateful to have come across Genessis & Riki, they were very professional from the start and they took time out of their day to educate us and answer any questions/ concerns that we had. At the end of our meeting we walked out a lot more confident and were able to make a decision right after. From the moment we met them they were very likeable it pretty much sealed the deal for us and not to mention their prices are very reasonable. During any point of filming they made us feel very comfortable and did such an awesome job directing and positioning us to get that perfect shot. The videos were just flawless! I'm so in love with all of it and I'm so glad to have chose Genessis and Riki. If you are looking for a professional, knowledgeable, and a trustworthy videographer who will make you feel comfortable I highly recommend this husband and wife duo! I'm not one to put trust into just anyone's hands but they are hands down the best AND exceeded our expections. Thank you Genessis and Riki for going above and beyond to not only provide amazing service but in creating an everlasting memory for us!

Genessis and Riki gave us the gift of memories that will last a lifetime and we are forever grateful! From the beginning they blended in with our friends in family and just made us all feel so comfortable even with a camera pointed at us at all times. They captured all of the details that mattered the most to us and complied it in a beautiful way. You can really tell how much they love, love. That was evident in how they portrayed our love in film. I was recommended Memory Lane and it was 100% the best decision we’ve ever made, so trust me when I say they will take care of you and provide you with nothing but the best!

Professional, fun and loving videographers!
We were so blessed to have found Riki & Genessis (Memory Lane Productions, AZ)! They made us feel so comfortable and beautiful for our engagement photos/video. This was a whole new experience for my fiancé and I, and it was an absolute blast! So many feelings and love was felt. My fiancé and I were able to be vulnerable, share our feelings and enjoy the moment. The photos are phenomenal and the videos made me bawl my eyes out. They really know what they're doing!
We definitely recommend to Riki & Genessis Kobayashi to everyone and hope to have them for our wedding as well! I cannot thank them enough!

Exceeded Expectations
Was referred by a coworker to Memory Lane Productions when my original videographer went bankrupt and cancelled on us last minute. From start to finish they were extremely responsive and professional. Exceeded my expectations! They do charge a travel fee because they are based out of San Tan Valley but was worth it to have our special day documented. -
