    Wonderful wedding film made by a wonderful videographer

    Candice is an extremely talented videographer and we are delighted to be able to recommend her to others. We hired her for the 4-7 minute film package for our wedding in Los Angeles and ended up upgrading to the 12-15 minute film after the event, and are so glad we did. We loved how easy and comfortable it was to work with her and cherish the film she made for us. She is super communicative, supportive, fun, funny, responsible, and low-stress. We had researched a lot of Los-Angeles-based videographers, and learned it was difficult to find a non-generic, but also non-gimmicky wedding videographer—but then we found Candice and knew right away that she and her work are special. Her filming and editing captured the dreamy feeling of our wedding day in both a genuine and fun way. Candice shoots and edits in a natural style that is personalized to the couple and captures the ethereal beauty of the light and warm energy of the day. She was also very easy to work with after the event, and her first cut was a home run! work in her portfolio is really cool, too, so don’t look any further and sign up with her company Spin The Dial!

    Best decision ever

    Working with Candice was a dream! We chose Candice for her mix of film and digital, artful videos, and overall impeccable style. Candice was super helpful as we discussed what packages to choose, she really has your best interest in mind and won’t steer you wrong. She’s also a great person and we loved spending our big day with her! Choose vendors that are awesome people and good at what they do and you can’t go wrong. Would highly recommend Candice to anyone looking for that non cliched super cool vintage-y wedding video aesthetic.

    Best Videographer Ever

    Where do I even begin but to say that I absolutely LOVE Candice!! I think we would be friends if we met in different circumstances, so this goes to show she treats her clients with the upmost respect, professionalism, and understanding.

    Candice was the only vendor of mine who I met on social media, more specifically through a wedding Facebook group. They hosted an event to meet vendors on Zoom, and I was immediately drawn to her positive energy and impressive college education in photography and film. When I went to her website, I fell in love with her natural style. In short, she doesn't follow the stereotypical wedding video script, but makes your day into a literal work of art.

    Candice was actually the only videographer we interviewed, and we hired her as we fell in love with her on the spot. She was always so patient with questions, very responsive to emails, and flexible when it came to upgrading packages and making edits.

    Candice previously told me that she acts as a ghost on the wedding day, and this could not be more true. I sincerely didn't notice her and was impressed with how much footage she had considering she was a team one. She had so many different angles captured along with amazing lighting without the bright lights in your face. I admire her for going through 8 hours of footage. That takes a lot of patience!

    If I'm being honest, I was skeptical about hiring a videographer in the first place as I was cognizant of money, but I knew I would be missing out on a huge opportunity if I did not hire Candice. Many people I have spoken to think photography is a must and video is optional, but Candice's work is absolutely essential.

    It's vendors like Spin the Dial Productions that make your day that much more comfortable and special. Make sure to hire a videographer for your wedding, and without a doubt, it MUST be Candice! :)

    Absolutely Amazing

    Candice is amazing and we couldn't have asked for anyone better to film our wedding. We met pre-COVID and immediately were drawn in by her cheerful personality and great vision. When COVID hit and we realized we needed to reschedule, Candice was incredibly understanding.

    When the big day came, 2 years later, Candice was as excited for us and to see us as we remembered from our first meeting. She kept us loose and made her work fun for all involved. We are happy to call her a friend, not just our videographer!

    Seeing the final result brought happy tears to our eyes because she captured everything so perfect that we could relive that day.

    Candice, you are awesome and keep doing what you do!

    Unique & Essential

    We absolutely love Candice and our final product!! She was so patient in the beginning with fielding all of our questions and uncertainties about videography. We were sold on her unique real film specialty.

    Most importantly, she has the sweetest presence and was the best hype woman on the day of the wedding. I had a lot of apprehensions about seeing myself on video but I am so glad I trusted her and did not forego this aspect of the day. She eloquently captured our day in the true essence of our relationship.

    We are so grateful to call her a friend now and have this special documentation to share with our family and future generations.

    Wonderful!

    There aren't enough stars my husband and I could give Candice! Her documentary-style videography was just what we were looking for. We had to postpone our July 2020 wedding due to COVID, and Candice could not have been more accommodating, responsive, or understanding. When our big day finally came a year later, Candice was an all-star! Especially enjoyed our spontaneous post-ceremony video shoot running around the venue parking lot during golden hour. And don't get me started on the final video--I'll start crying! So beautiful, tender, funny, and just perfect.

    Great Service & Beautifully Captured Moments

    Candice was great to work with from our phone consultation to the day of our wedding and getting our trailer edit back. As we both work in entertainment we wanted to choose someone who had a greater understanding and appreciation for the craft and didn't just churn our videos as a business. We felt very confident in Candice's abilities and love having all the footage to look back on for years to come!

    Best Wedding Video Ever!

    Candice and Spin the Dial were a dream to work with! From the very first phone call, to the day of the wedding, to the finished delivered product, we were impressed the whole way through. Candice was a great communicator and worked perfectly with our other vendors the day of the wedding. During the ceremony and reception, she managed to blend into the crowd as to not interfere with any proceedings but still captured the most amazing footage. Watching our wedding video allowed us to re-live the big day and appreciate special moments all over again, many of which we didn't have enough time to truly take in during the wedding itself. It was also very impressive how she blended our vows and speeches perfectly into footage she shot during the day. We loved our finished video and are so happy we chose Spin the Dial as our wedding videographer. :)

    We searched far and wide for a videographer for our wedding. It came to a point, where referrals and videos we found online all started to look the same. My husband and I were looking for a videographer that would be able to capture our personality and translate it into a video that we will remember forever and Spin the Dial did just that! All the videos in her portfolio are unique and true to the couples personality. It is not based on a generic template that a lot of videographers use these days.

    We immediately hit it off with Candice (the owner) when we first had our Skype consultation. She was the sweetest and it felt like we had known her forever! She also became our friend shortly after that. She was super helpful, responsive and she gave us creative ideas and suggestions on all of her asks. We had so much crazy ideas in the beginning such as making an engagement video, video montage and she patiently stood by us with all our change of plans.

    When it came to our wedding day, we didn’t even know that Candice and Ariel were filming our wedding! A lot of the shots that they had were taken from a distance, which made our wedding video very authentic. What we even loved the most is that Candice was able to translate our personality into film and watching it makes us relive our wedding day. They even got a shot of our cat in our wedding film, which we loved and didn't expect. All the emotions that we felt that day were summoned by that film! Watching our film makes us feel like we were transported back to that day and time. It is just truly magical!

    Also, not to mention that Ariel even helped us out with transporting our alcohol to our wedding venue and he didn’t have to do that! Candice also referred us to our also amazing photographer! Overall, I highly recommend Spin the Dial. They exceeded our expectations and we cannot wait to work with them again in the future!!!

    This was the easiest part of planning my wedding! I booked them and they showed up. They needed zero guidance and got the best shots. We ended up with a perfect video! It was touching and fun and we made zero edits to the final version. I highly recommend adding drone footage. What a cool view of the wedding that provided. Would book them again for any occasion I wanted to preserve in video.

    Initially, I was hesitant to get a wedding video and I was worried that a videographer might be intrusive. But my first conversation with Candice put me at ease. She has a wonderful, positive attitude, that eliminated all my initial trepidation. Candice and her team made the videography process easy and I walked away from the weekend so happy that I had decided to get a video!
    Now that my husband and I have seen the footage, we could not be more excited to recommend Spin the Dial to anyone looking for an awesome videographer.
    Thank you Candice and Spin the Dial for contributing your time and awesome energy to our weekend.

    Early in our wedding planning my husband and I were given the advice to get a videographer to capture our wedding day and have it come to life in a way that photos can’t. We are so thankful that we took that advice and that we found Candice and Spin the Dial Productions!
    From initial meeting with Candice to final product she clearly demonstrated her high level of professionalism and artistic abilities. She was easy to work with and was a clear communicator and definitely listened to what we wanted as our final product. The night that we got our final video I had to stop myself from continuously watching it – Candice did a great job of truly capturing our wedding day and she understood and embodied the vibe we were going for! We look forward to many years of watching our wedding video and reliving a beautiful night that Candice so artistically captured. We would recommend anyone looking for a videographer to look into Candice and Spin the Dial – you guys are truly the best!

    Searching for a videographer is so important- I learned that quickly in helping friends plan their weddings and then planning my own. When people say they wished they would have gotten a videographer, its SO TRUE and I am so glad I did. It should be a top priority to every bride/groom.

    Candice was easily the best vendor I worked with. HANDS DOWN. When I originally contacted her, we weren't sure if we were going to be able to work together due to scheduling conflicts. She made it work and she made me feel completely comfortable in every way. Not just through emails, not just through site messages but was fast to FaceTime, call, text and even meet in person. Like I mentioned before, planning a wedding can be crazy but the day of is even crazier. I only remembered small snippets of time, I was soooo overwhelmed. Candice and Ariel, truly got who we were and made an incredible video for us. I cried just because it changed my perspective of the whole experience. My poor Mom actually broke her ankle minutes before I walked down the aisle. Thanks to Candice and Ariel- she can actually look back and see what she literally couldn't the day of- her first born getting hitched. Candice and Ariel, I can't thank you enough, you reminded me that even though the day was crazy, when sh!t can really hit the fan, I will forever be grateful and in love with my wedding day because of you guys. You also gave us the best pricing by a long shot. No joke, the best price I got from any vendor. The fact that you offer final balance payment due upon receiving your final video is not only logical, it's f-ing RAD! I 100% will recommend and tell everyone I can about Spin the Dial!
    XOXOXOXOXOXOXX Love you guys!

    My daughter’s wedding video is everything we hoped for and more! They were able to capture unbelievable moments in time that we will have forever! They portrayed the vintage look of the wedding from start to finish. It is like watching a movie you never want to end. Truely an art form from private moments captured, to the chosen musical arrangements throughout the video, I can’t get enough! We will treasure this for all time...

    Candice of Spin the Dial was so great to work with! From our very first conversation even before booking her, I felt like I was speaking with a friend. She even took us out for coffee to meet in person before the big day, so we had a chance to get to know each other and feel comfortable with one another. On our wedding day, Candice blended into our wedding seamlessly and she was able to get some amazing video footage of the event! We love the highlights film she produced - she captured all the most important parts of the evening and melded it all together so beautifully. Her video is one of our favorite keepsakes from the day - such a great way to revisit all the details and emotions of the special moments. Candice also charges fair prices for what you get! Can't go wrong :)

    I don't know where to begin! First of all, typically I don't leave reviews! Motherhood keeps me pretty busy, but Spin the Dial was the best addition to my wedding!! I actually found Spin the Dial because I saw a wedding video on Facebook, and it brought me to tears. I found out it was done by Candice at Spin the Dial. So when i got engaged, I knew I needed her as my videographer!! Candice was always a pleasure to communicate with. She was friendly, open, honest and always responded quickly. She didn't make me feel silly for asking a million questions since I knew nothing about wedding planning let alone wedding videography! She was my FAVORITE vendor and i genuinely refer her to anyone!! Our wedding video is something not only I am in love with, but my family is also! Everyone says that its done so so well, it includes all the major moments so eloquently. I could honestly go on forever, Candice is a true gem and you'll want her alongside you on your wedding day! She was sweet and encouraging and kept things fun. OK, truly, I have to stop myself.

    When Aristotle wrote, "pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work," there was no way for him to know the work of Candice, Rob, and Spin the Dial Productions, but the joy they have in their profession radiates from our perfect wedding video.

    The process began when we met up with Robert well ahead of our wedding to get to know each other. We wanted to make sure that he and Spin the Dial was the right match for us. Robert also expressed that he wanted to get to know us and what we were looking for to get a better idea of how they could achieve the goal we desired. It was a pleasant experience and by the end of our meeting it was clear that he would care for our wedding like a friend.

    On the day of our wedding, we briefly saw Robert and showed him around the location. He then took time to wander around the venue and familiarize himself with the lay of the land. Later, we realized that he was basically choreographing his movements for the day so he could be where he needed to be when he needed to be there. Photographers and videographers can be distracting at an important event, taking attention away from the special moments they are attempting to capture. In quantum physics, the Observer Effect describes how the act of even looking at something changes it and influences the outcome. If this theory is true, then somehow Robert existed in a parallel universe, inexplicably filming our event invisibly, even though the footage shows that he was front and center the entire time. I have no clue how he achieved this. Not once did we think about the logistics of the filming during our wedding, we were confident that it was being taken care of in the competent hands of Robert. We were not wrong...

    WOW! Candice and her team were amazing from the moment we met them! The video she put together for us was just as magical as our wedding day! Candice was warm and so easy to be around that we felt like we were hanging out with a friend during our shots before the ceremony. She truly captured all of the emotions of our night and we feel it every time we watch our video. Couldn't be happier to have had Spin the Dial make our wedding night our favorite short film! Thank you!

    Our day was spectacular. To be able to look back and see a video marking the most significant day along with beautiful shots of family and friends was the cherry on top. So grateful I was referred to the Spin The Dial and had an opportunity to work with them.

    Candice of Spin the Dial did an absolutely beautiful job on our wedding video. She perfectly captured the essence and feeling of the night. It brought tears to our eyes to get to watch and re-watch one of the most fun nights of our lives and to see beautiful shots of all of our friends and family enjoying it with us. Candice is also a pleasure to work with - she is easy going and worked really well with our photographer the day of. She kept us in the loop of the editing process and was happy to make the edits we requested. All in all a great experience working with Spin the Dial! Thank you!!
