    Favorite romcom now: Ruff Actually =P

    Ruff is very fairly priced and is an easygoing, and patient guy to work with. Ruff directed us very well and did make make us feel the pressure of the camera on us, rather capturing us in our best moments of normalcy with one another. He is very easy to work with, even though we were late due to some wrong directions, he stayed later to finish all the shots necessary. I strongly advise anyone who wants their best moments as a couple be captured and represented in pictures to hire him.

    Amazing Cinematography

    RuffMedia might be the official videographer for all of my friends. He’s worked with almost 7 weddings I’ve been to so I just had to get them for my wedding! After working with them, I can see why. They’re EXTREMELY professional and talented. They work so well with the photographer, jumping in and out and collaborating with your photographer so you get the most out of video/photo. They definitely have some of the coolest shots, and camera angles that you don’t see everyday. Ruff and Leslie are so nice and you it feels like you just made a lifelong friend after your wedding (that’s pretty cool). They also cater so well to certain unique things to your wedding. Working with rough is a 5/5 and you should definitely hire them for your wedding!

    Exceptional Cinematography! Creative, Professional, Timeless!

    We hired the BEST of the BEST to shoot our wedding! We're so happy with our wedding video, we were taken back to those emotions of having to plan a wedding during a pandemic.. Ruffmedia captured the essence of our wedding beautifully. For those who couldn't be there, they were happy to witness our wedding through our wedding day video highlight. They felt all those raw emotions that they couldn't witness in person and we are forever grateful! Ruffmedia was very professional, flexible, and responsive during these difficult times when wedding planning has become stressful and unpleasant for everyone. Thank you for making our day so special!

    Amazing! Would highly recommend to anyone

    I could have written this review earlier as I had the best feeling I would love everything out videographers made and its SO true! Ruffmedia was amazing to work with from the very beginning, so communicative and responsive with quotes and making your custom package and they were so flexible with all the changes that COVID 19 threw at us (including date change). Our videographers were the sweetest guys and so professional. They took everything we wanted into consideration and made the best recaps that really felt like us. We really couldn't have asked for more. Would 1000% recommend!

    Lasting Memories!

    We had an eye on their photography and cinematography work even before we got engaged. We booked them well in advanced just because our date was popular, 8/18/18. We truly enjoyed our experience from beginning to end with the engagement shoot, wedding photos, and full motion video. Leslie was responsive emailing back and forth in a timely manner. RuffMedia and team are professional but fun, made us feel comfortable, and pay close attention to detail. We love reliving our special day through their creative photos and video. They have our highest recommendation!!

    My wife wanted a videographer for our wedding and our friends referred us to this company. Leslie (contact we dealt with) was very responsive, helpful, and friendly. She addressed all of our questions in a timely manner and left no detail out. On our wedding day, Ruff and his team were incredible. Their kind, fun, and professional personalities made them a joy to work with. We cannot wait to see how our video turns out! Will definitely refer this company to others in the future.

    There's not enough words to explain how amazing and easy it is to work with RuffMedia. From the initial consultation to our day of the wedding, Leslie and Ruff were very professional and a lot of fun. It was as if they've been our friends for a long time. Especially since they were very accessible via email from the moment we booked them (which was a little more than a year in advance). They made sure to capture every detail and were also very patient in working with us when it came to making decisions. We were able to do a 'romantic short' which is like an engagement shoot but for video and they were so easy to work with and capture a style of video that we loved! They helped us with our vision and even incorporated our dog in the video.

    On the day of the wedding, we had a different company doing photography (Dustin and Avalon from True Photography) and we quickly saw that Ruff and Leslie were able to work with them easily and efficiently. It almost felt like a bunch of friends hanging out and just taking photos. It definitely made our wedding day fun and easy!!

    Ruff and Leslie are amazing artists and we are glad we chose them for our wedding! Though we're still waiting on the final video since our wedding was only 2 weeks ago (right before the holidays) we know it will be amazing and are excited to see the final product!!

    So if you want a professional yet amazing set of videographers, go with RUFFMEDIA, they will not disappoint!!

    We are so glad we chose them and are sure you will be too!!!!

    RUFFMEDIA's reply:

    Thank you so much for your kind words Krystle + Denard! We couldn't have said it better ourselves when you mentioned that it felt like a bunch of friends just hanging out. It's been an honor working with you both and we can't wait to show you what we have in store. Boba date soon! :P

    RUFF MEDIA! Ruff and Leslie make such an amazing team. They first caught our eye with their crazy awesome videos (because believe me we researched a lot of companies and we are picky haha) and then when we reached out they were very responsive and SO NICE! They were able to work with our budget and we’re so excited about our big day. We booked them, and when months go by Leslie would reach out to touch base. It’s weird to think so much time goes by and you don’t even know the people.. Then after exchanging emails about details the big day was here. When we met at the venue it was so perfect! Ruff is so professional and passionate about getting that perfect shot (which we appreciate so much) and Leslie is the sweetest person ever! The fact they love what they do and really want to capture these memories for us is what pushes them over the top. Overall rating: A+++ !!!

    From the music selection, smooth transitions, and their unique cinematography - RuffMedia went above and beyond our expectations. We really appreciated the quick email responses and their attention to detail. The RuffMedia team made us and our bridal party extremely comfortable and catered to our needs throughout the wedding. Having a sneak peek, highlight, and full video of the wedding made us extremely happy with their product. if you're debating to hire a videographer- do it. RuffMedia captured all the little moments that we missed and gave us the ability to relive our special day.

    I can't put into words how happy I am for choosing Ruff Media to capture our day. I first met with Leslie a year prior to my wedding and she was very thorough with the services that they provided. Dealing with wedding vendors can be such a guessing game and I never felt that way with this company. They were very professional and flexible. We were able to pay with an installment plan which was organized and straight forward. On the day of the wedding they were so sweet and patient with our rowdy bunch :) They did such a wonderful job on our photos! Their attention to detail is obvious even down to the packaging of our USB which is super adorable. I highly recommend Ruff Media for wedding photos they are also extremely talented videographers.

    I really felt the initial search for our vendors was a bit overwhelming. We had looked at dozens of other photographers and videographers before deciding to pursue Ruffmedia. They became our first choice once we had weighed our options taking into account our price range and the style of photo/video we saw on their site. They had done a couple of our friends’ weddings, and we were really hopeful they could capture the same kind of magic for us.

    Any doubts that they were the team for us were immediately went away as soon as we sent that first email. As hectic as wedding planning was, they made every interaction a pleasurable and professional exchange. Whether my wife and I would take minutes or days to respond or make a decision, their team were personable, prompt, and very flexible throughout the entire process.

    They were the absolute best that we could have hoped for on the actual day of the wedding. With so much family and chaos after our ceremony, they were wonderful and efficient in getting as many great photos in an efficient, yet calm and cool manner at the church. Afterward, they were agile and adaptable as we had an impromptu venue change for our photos. Even with the new location, I was really impressed by how they were were able to quickly scan the area for the most photogenic locations and keep our party moving for our photos.

    I personally hate taking photos and am as uncomfortable as they come when being asked to pose, but that was the furthest thought from my mind while working with their team during the shoot. I was initially dreading the idea of posing for photos for hours, but they were exquisitely talented in keeping us and our wedding party relaxed, the ambience light-hearted, and staying engaged throughout the entire shoot before the reception.

    I would highly encourage anyone to book Ruffmedia ASAP. It’s a decision you won’t regret and one less thing to stress about as you plan for your big day.

    For starters, Ruffmedia likes one of my pictures instagram! I later stalked their page and found that I loved their work. It was fate that allowed me to choose such a talented group of people. After convincing my now husband that they had to be our photographers; I contacted Leslie and found that she made the process so easy. Any question I had; Leslie was quick to answer. Day of the wedding, the whole team made an effort to get to know how we bonded as a group. We quickly became comfortable with them as they caught on to my favorite pose along with my husbands. We had a very large wedding party, they handled it like champs ! The attention to detail is beyond words, our wedding video was perfect along with all the still images. Furthermore, our relationship went beyond just our wedding. We lost a loved one a few months out from the wedding; Leslie was kind enough to search through our wedding photos and find pictures of my father in law to send to me. They captured moments that my family and I will forever cherish. Thank you ruff media, you did more than capture our wedding day, you captured the loving words of my father in law along with his contagious laugh and smile.
    Side note, it is worth the wait as they edit through the video and images!

    I cannot stress the importance of a good videographer if you are going to have one for your wedding. RuffMedia is without a doubt the absolute best thing we could of asked for in a videographer. The team was incredibly patient, professional, responsive, and just down-right good people. They listened carefully to what we were looking for; the style, tempo, etc., and exceeded our expectations ten-fold. So incredibly grateful RuffMedia did our wedding. I have already recommended them (by both request and cold-call haha) to many friends. Seriously very happy with the finished product, we've watched it countless times already. Thank you RuffMedia so much! Our wedding day just wouldn't be the same without being able to look back and reminisce about all the joy and laughter of our special day.

    Highly highly HIGHLY recommend giving RuffMedia a chance. You will not be disappointed!

    RUFFMEDIA's reply:

    Wow, you two are amazing. We can't even put into words how grateful and blessed we are to have the privilege of having clients like yourselves, Kamron & Hanna. It's reviews like these that inspire us to do what we do by turning moments into memories. Cheers! :)

    The Ruff Media team was such a find! Great staff... Fun and friendly... The turn around time is absolutely fantastic, we have our next day teaser, highlight reel and full day recap already... and they are simply perfect! We cannot wait to have a excuse to you this team again!

    Ruffmedia was a breath of fresh air throughout the entire planning process and even after our wedding day. Not only were they professional and easy going, but they were also so much fun to have around and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. I still can't believe that they were able to put together a clip for us the day after our wedding so we can share it with our friends and family. Ruffmedia was definitely one of the best decisions my husband and I made to have by our side on our wedding day and I can't thank them enough.

    Breathtaking Cinematography

    If you are thinking about getting a videographer and/or photographer to capture your special day, book with RuffMedia. Of all the recommendations and suggestions our friends had given my husband and I, RuffMedia grabbed our attention immediately. We fell in love with their cinematography type style, very "movie-esk.” Perfectly capturing the emotions that naturally happen during special events; "the love, laughter, and the happily ever after.” Quoted from their website that we believe they truly capture. Without a doubt, we knew we wanted to book with them and that was one of the first things we did while planning our wedding.

    Even with the pandemic changing our initial plans, I knew we had to make it work in order to have Ruffmedia capture our special day. They were so awesome to work with. Their team made us feel comfortable and made it fun. (Thank you Ruff and Drew! And shoutout to Leslie who we were in contact with.) They had the perfect amount of professionalism and enthusiasm and can definitely tell the amount of passion they have for their talent. Even with our wedding being in the gray times of the pandemic, where things were still closed or at 25% capacity, they will able to produce our amazing wedding highlight and capture breathtaking photos. My husband and I aren’t very fond of taking photos and are naturally awkward when it comes to being in front of the camera. But they were able to capture the best parts of us and that is definitely what you want when looking for a videographer/photographer. We had opted out from taking engagement photos and got animated prints instead, but after seeing the amazing work they have done, I wish we would’ve booked them to take engagement photos as well. I am grateful for the opportunity to work with RuffMedia, because of their amazingly talented team, my husband and I will be able to relive our wedding day all over again.
