I can't say enough about Chelsea from Stories Told By Film! I spent months looking for a videographer for our wedding. Chelsea came highly recommended by other vendors and she did not disappoint! She made everyone feel at ease and the final movie she created of our big day blew us away. I've received so many positive comments from our guests, many of which said watching the film brought them back to the day and loved how she captured the most important moments. We've watched it numerous times and it always make me so emotional. Many of of our guests couldn't attend so being able to share this made then feel like they were there celebrating with us. -

Chelsea truly blew us away with our wedding videos and highlight video. We were shocked by how quickly she could get the highlight video to us - it was within a couple weeks of the wedding, right at a time when we wanted to relive the experience and share with folks who attended. She's so talented, hire her!! -

Chelsea is the ONE to hire for your most special day. You can absolutely trust the process with Chelsea based off of the talent she displays in her previous work. We are extremely pleased with our choice and investment in her and you can rest assured that she will tell your love story beautifully. She was so amazing at showcasing the highlights from my perspective and I felt that she really understood what I envisioned for my dream wedding video. I am impressed by her eye for detail and how she observed my emotions and relations to my loved ones. She brought out and reminded me of the most special moments in our wedding video that I will be able to relive endlessly. I can not sing enough praise for Chelsea and I am forever grateful for the piece she produced. -

Chelsea and her team truly made our day so special! Both her and her entire team were so professional and gave us an experience that felt so unique to our special day. I can’t even begin to calculate the countless times we’ve watched our video and have noticed/appreciated all the details that went into it. Another thing that both Chelsea and her team were fantastic at was keeping things moving ON TIME (so critical) and giving us moments that we got to spend together just us away from our loved ones. On such a fast paced day it can be hard to cherish every moment, but we’re so grateful that Chelsea did this for us!
Highly would recommend stories told by film 1000 times over

Investing in Chelsea as our wedding videographer was the best decision we made. She is extremely talented and delivered the most stunning video. We will forever look back on it and be able to remember exactly the way that day felt because of how she captured each moment. I highly recommend her for your events! -

We really enjoyed working with Chelsea, and the result was absolutely stunning. The video capture our day we couldn't have imagined. Videography was not our top priority when planning out our budget, but I am so happy that we made it a priority - it tells the story of our day in a way that nothing else could. -

Chelsea is absolutely amazing to work with. She was by far our favorite vendor. She was kind and very professional. We didn't meet her until our wedding day but she immediately made us feel at ease. Amidst the chaos that is COVID weddings, her ability to communicate timelines and actually stick with them was so appreciated. My husband wasn't sold at first on hiring a videographer and now that we have had a chance to watch back our special day, he said it was the best money we spent on our big day. I highly recommend Chelsea and Stories Told By Film to capture your special day. It is such a treat to look back on. Hire her, you won't regret it :) -

Chelsea and her second shooter, Patrick, were exceptional to work with. The passion and dedication Chelsea puts into her work is unparelleled. Chelsea showed such genuine care for me, my husband, and our whole group- people asked if I'd known her before the big day. I can't thank you enough, Chelsea, for your professionalism and for capturing our special day. I would recommend Chelsea to anyone looking for a high quality and compassionate professional to capture their big day! -

We decided to invest in a videographer because after the wedding, photos and video is all you will have to remember the special day. We have no regrets with spending the money to hire Chelsea as our videographer! Chelsea was a joy to have around during our wedding day. She was kind, laid back, professional, and went above and beyond for us. First off, our videos were edited and back to us 3 weeks after our wedding (SO FAST). Especially with how many weddings vendors are taking on the 2021 season, I was so impressed with how fast our wedding video was delivered. Second, we absolutely love our video - the quality is great. Our package allowed us to have our entire ceremony, vows and toasts in addition to the highlight video which I really appreciated. Next, I did a lot of research on videography and Chelsea's pricing is extremely reasonable for a high quality videographer. Finally, Chelsea also went above and beyond and stayed past her contracted time just to get our grand exit and that didn't go unnoticed on our end. I cannot say enough wonderful things about her. Thank you a million times! -

We were so beyond happy with the quality and artistry of our wedding video. It gives me goosebumps every time I watch. I’m so happy we chose Stories Told by Film on our special day. Thank you to Chelsea and her team! -

We were SO lucky to have Chelsea as a part of our wedding weekend with us, and highly recommend you booking Stories Told by Film for your big day!! In addition to filming our wedding day, she joined us the night before at our rehearsal dinner to film speeches. From a planning perspective, We really appreciated how easy she made the process for us - quick to respond over email and always so helpful answering our questions over the phone. Her packages made it really easy for us to customize exactly what we wanted - we were able to add an extra videographer, extra hours & even get all of the raw footage, in addition to her beautifully edited videos.
We were so impressed with the video she put together for us - I have literally watched it on a daily basis and don’t plan to stop any time soon! She did such an incredible job authentically capturing the joy & love we felt during our day, and seamlessly blended together the speeches, first looks, ceremony & reception. We realized that one of our favorite moments hadn’t made the original cut of the cinematic edit, but Chelsea was able to quickly edit that in for us when we asked. We’re so grateful to be able to relive these moments over & over, and can’t wait to show our wedding video to our kids & grandkids one day!

Chelsea was absolutely incredible!! She came highly recommended to me by my wedding planner and a friend of mine and I am SOO glad I hired her!! She made my day so special. She was sweet, easygoing & such a rockstar. She got amazing footage of our special day. She beautifully captured all of our most special moments! Plus she was able to add our personality into our teaser video by making it FRIENDS themed. She also sent a beautiful package after the wedding with the flash drive of our video. I would HIGHLY recommend Chelsea to anyone who is looking for a great videographer. -

Chelsea is absolutely amazing!!! She was so helpful throughout the whole entire planning process and definitely in the affordable range. She was extremely quick with giving us our video, we were still on our honeymoon when we received it only 1 week after our wedding! We had a performer at our wedding, and she even added a special touch of our performers song on our video. She really told our story perfectly through film. It was a pleasure working with her and I highly recommend her!! -

Julie G. Sent on 05/17/2021One of the best choices you can make for your wedding!
Hiring Chelsea for videography was the one choice about our wedding that I never questioned. Planning through the pandemic, she was flexible and understanding as our wedding developed. Her calm personality and straightforward nature immediately put us at ease. She is unendingly talented, professional yet easy going, and a joy to work with.
The payoff for videography was priceless. Having the moments of our wedding captured in video, full joyful expressions, voices cracking during vows, post-ceremony cuddles and kisses, is a level of emotion that photography just couldn't fully do justice. Get the wedding portraits for family, but I encourage every couple to do videography for themselves. For your 70 year old selves rewatching your special day for the millionth time, marveling at how young you once were.
I have treasured my wedding video far more than the still images from the day. She captured the special moments even better than our photographer did, dedicated to getting the best angles and shots. While still filming during the wedding, I could see her starting to weave our story together. Chelsea truly creates love stories, and I felt beautiful through her lens.
There is a lot I would do different about my pandemic wedding, but hiring Chelsea is one decision I would never change! -

She captured moments that I didn’t even remember having and I’m so thankful we have an amazing video of the best day of our lives. Hiring Stories Told By Film was the best decision. Chelsea is a true master at her craft! Book her, don’t even think twice about it! -

Ryan H. Sent on 10/04/2019Hire Chelsea! You absolutely won't regret it.
We hired Chelsea upon the recommendation of friends who used her for their wedding in 2017. We are so grateful that we found her!
Our wedding was on Sept. 21 and she completed the 13-minute video by Sept. 27. An unbelievably quick turnaround, and she nailed it.
We've watched the video countless times already, and just about every time it leaves us laughing and crying tears of joy all in one. She perfectly captured our day, from the ceremony to the cocktail hour, toasts, first dance, cake cutting and celebration.
We were on the fence about hiring a videographer until our friends told us, "You have to hire Chelsea. You won't regret it." It was the best advice we received while wedding planning. Now we have a keepsake to watch for the rest of our lives.
On a personal note, Chelsea was incredibly easy and fun to work with. She is such a great person and made us feel at ease in front of the camera.
Thank you, Chelsea! We appreciate your hard work and attention to detail more than we can ever adequately express. -

Laura Sent on 11/03/2019Hiring Chelsea will be one of your best decisions!
We hired Chelsea per the recommendation of our friends who hired her for their wedding in 2017. We are beyond thankful and grateful to have found her!
Chelsea perfectly captured our day. She didn’t miss a beat – getting ready, pre-ceremony letters to one another, ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, toasts, cake cutting, and dancing – she caught it all! It’s also worth noting that our ceremony and reception were in different locations. We knew this would create some logistical challenges between getting ready at the reception site, going to Mission SLO for the ceremony, then back to the reception venue! But Chelsea handled it all seamlessly. We had a full mass ceremony, so clearly this was an aspect of our wedding day that was very important to us. Chelsea read into this and we loved how much of our ceremony she included in our wedding highlight video!
Chelsea made it so fun and comfortable to be in front of the camera, sometimes I even forgot she was there! She also worked fabulously with our photographer which helped make the day go smoothly.
It’s weeks later and our friends and family are still giving compliments on how much they love our wedding video. Again, we are so grateful to have found Chelsea and for the video(s) we’ll be able to cherish for a lifetime. Thank you Chelsea for EVERYTHING!
