    Very accommodating!

    We had the immense pleasure of having Shant Atarian as our wedding photographer and couldn't be happier with the results. His care and attention to detail and ability to capture the special moments of our big day was truly impressive. His photographs are absolutely stunning and not only reflect the joy and love of our wedding day but also honestly captured the essence of our friends and family.

    After shooting our wedding, to our surprise, we found out that Shant was actually a photographer we had admired on instagram for years prior. The serendipity of getting to work with him made the experience of working with Symboll all the more magical!

    We also loved our wedding film that was shot by John Mark who made us feel really comfortable in front of the camera. His positive and upbeat attitude was infectious and kept us smiling and laughing throughout the day! Such good energy! So so thankful to the videographers and editing team!!!

    Finally, we also appreciate the accommodation and patience shown to us by Attila and the Symboll admin team who were nothing but helpful and accommodating when we had a medical emergency that caused our wedding plans to change. I know our requests and circumstances weren’t the easiest to deal with, but they made it work seamlessly in ensuring we were happy at every step.

    Piece of art

    Symboll did amazing with our videography for the wedding day! Misha was our videographer and he was extremely nice & communicative. We felt taken care of & had a lot of trust in this team. Our 5 minute video was beyond our expectation!! We had so much fun filming & the product was better than we could have ever imagine. The editing team listened to all of our wants and needs and gave us the best memory we could have ever hoped for. They used the two songs that we requested, even with two different genres, and made the transitions seamless! We were also in love with our full day film. It was so fun to look back at all the little details of the day. Our wedding truly was a magical day & we are so lucky to have had Symboll capture that memory for us. They made it so authentic to our personality & really captured our love!! If you’re looking for a videographer, hire Symboll!

    Marvelous work!

    My wife and I had an outstanding experience with Symboll! From the early stages, their communication was excellent, which made it very easy to work out the details of our wedding. We did a three day fusion wedding (Indian, Chinese, Mexican), so we required several videographers and photographers. They sent us the best crew who covered every aspect of our events. A special shout-out to Misha (lead videographer) and Shant (lead photographer). Not only are they super kind individuals, they are masters at their craft, and are very open to feedback to ensure the final product is exactly what you want. As part of our package, we had an engagement shoot prior to the wedding and we worked with Shant and John-Michael. The photos came out eipic and were very editorial. These guys and their truly crew went above and beyond for us. I would highly suggest checking out Symboll if you are in search of a talented, professional, and friendly group to cover all your wedding media needs.

    A Picture-Perfect Experience with Symboll Wedding Photography and Videography!

    We had the pleasure of working with David and Tom from Symboll for our wedding, and we couldn't be happier with the results. We wanted something far from a traditional wedding video, and they delivered beyond our expectations. Their energy and creativity were infectious, making the entire process truly collaborative. The end result was a captivating short film that perfectly captured the essence and joy of our special day. If you're looking for photographers and videographers who think outside the box and bring your vision to life, look no further than Symboll.

    The bestt!

    My Fiancée and I just signed our contract with Symboll! We are so excited to work with them on our special day. I have been speaking with Christian for the last couple of weeks to find the package that works best for our budget and Christian has LITERALLY bent over backwards for us to find a package that works for us! We have been speaking with multiple photographers and videographers and no one seemed to be as caring and understanding as Christian! He responds very quickly, is so accommodating, and is so helpful! Christian seems like he really cares for the couples he works with, and this is even before we signed any Contract. I can only imagine how great it will be to work with Christian and the Symboll team ! I can’t thank you enough Christian for working with us and we will be forever grateful! We know we won’t be disappointed and are so excited! Will definitely be referring them to our family and friends in the future!

    Artistic and cinematic

    Symboll caught our attention because of the dramatic flair in their style. It’s a mix of editorialized, artistic, and cinematic. Their videography draws you in with its unique combination of styles and keeps you mesmerized from beginning to end. The team really knows how to weave together a story in a short clip and showcase what matters to you the most. Our final video is every bit as sentimental and fun to watch as the day was to experience! Attila was a great help in coordinating the day!

    Talented and awesome!

    We loved the team Symboll. They helped us to capture our wedding day as special and beautiful.
    The support team helped us out well before and after the wedding day. The photographer Keith and the videographer Misha were very nice and passionate about what they were doing, and the results turned out really beautiful! We truly appreciate it. They are very talented and awesome!
    All my concerns are solved thanks to the support team. We are satisfied 100%.
    I definitely recommend them to anyone who likes to capture and keep their special day like a movie. Thanks again to the team!

    Wish I could give more than 5 stars!!! Our wedding pictures and videos came out incredible! The crew we had on the day was brilliant and really captured all the moments we wanted to remember. I can't recommend Symboll more! Thank you for making our wedding day so special!

    Professional, outstanding quality

    We made the decision to go with cinestory after my (now) wife saw one of their videos on their website. My wife and I will forever be happy with our decision. The team was fun to work with and made our wedding day a breeze. My wife and I generally feel pretty awkward in front of the camera so they would very helpful with posing and directing us. We also got the wedding planning package per my request because I didn't want to have to worry about anything leading up to our wedding or on our wedding day. Diana completely took the reins and was a boss on the wedding day. We couldn't have done it without her or Dan and their awesome team.

    We had the best experience with Symboll!

    We had the best experience with Symboll! Our wedding day was captured perfectly and the team were super friendly to work with. We used both photographers and videographers and we barely noticed them documenting the day which was exactly what we wanted. Communication was easy, plus they were extremely professional. They also had a really quick turn around with delivery time and we absolutely LOVE our footage. Thanks for giving us the perfect memories of our wedding day!

    Quality service

    Symboll’s team of photogs & videographers were a pleasure to work with from the initial consultation to the post-wedding delivery of their work. Each team member was professional, friendly, and warm. They added to the magic of our Big Day and didn’t require any handholding or corrections. My wife and I were extremely pleased with their services.

    Professional and incredible quality

    The team was incredibly professional and organized throughout our entire planning process. From the first Facetime meeting to our creative and timeline meetings-they led the conversation and asked all the questions, we just had to answer. Diana gave my wife and I some great recommendations for venue locations and provided an amazing cake decorator and florist as well. My wife and I were originally worried about wedding day in that it might be a little stressful but Diana made everything go seamlessly. Neither my wife or I had to worry or think about a single thing. Diana was a life saver. We cherish our video and photos and have already framed 4 huge photos in our house.

    Fantastic team for our wedding photo and video shoot.

    Fantastic team for our wedding photo shoot. Very professional and helpful throughout the entire process, from meeting with us to understand our vision, to coordinating seamlessly day-of, and following up with us after the wedding to ensure the final product was just what we wanted. We had both photo and video services- both were excellent, with top notch upgrades like drone footage and very high-end recording equipment to ensure that everything was captured wonderfully. Would highly recommend for any wedding.

    Couldn't have done it without them!

    We couldn't have had the wedding our our dreams without The Cinestory!! They made our photo and video vision come to life exactly how we imagined it. They also helped to plan the wedding of our dreams. Can I tell you how EASY it is to book a photographer, videographer, and wedding planner from the same company? I think that was the best decision we could have made. Our wedding day went smoothly and perfectly and we are forever grateful to our team at Cinestory!

    Couldn't have asked for a better team.

    Cinestory is an incredible photo and video that made all of our ideas and visions come true. Working with them was easy-they asked the right questions and easily understood our vision from the start. We couldn't have asked for a more professional company. The last month leading up to our wedding, we made a last-minute call to add on a wedding planner from their team. We didn't want to be stressed on our wedding day and at the time, we didn't have a day-of coordinator to "run the show". That's exactly what Diana did. I think that was the best decision we made overall. It allowed my wife and I to completely enjoy our day and stay in the moment. Will forever recommend The Cinestory!

    Amazing experience with video and wedding planner!

    We booked The Cinestory one month before our wedding-I know, so quick! We ended up going with an elopement style wedding and couldn't wait for COVID to end to get married. We weren't exactly sure where we wanted to have it or honestly where we were even allowed to have it with all the covid regulations. So we ended up getting their videography package and wedding planning package-it was the best decision. Diana, our wedding planner, did basically everything for us and I am so grateful. I basically just had to show up to our wedding and everything was perfect! Not to mention our video is stunning, I don't think you could find higher quality anywhere.

    We were looking for something Unique, Symboll is just that!

    Chris and I were able to put together our summer wedding on July 31st, 2020 in Paso Robles at CaliPaso Wine & Villa. We reached out to Daniel who owns and runs a team of fantastic planners, photographers, videographers, and editors.

    Symboll really took the time to prepare and set up for our extraordinary wedding/elopement. We asked to have a live feed via youtube for our families overseas and he pulled it off using an iphone- only the wifi and cell service in the area wasn't great which they couldn't help, but no matter - I highly recommend a final video of the entire ceremony professionally captured by his high quality camera and audio setup. That was much more of a valuable, priceless capture. The short 2.5 minute trailer was created along with the longer version 22 mins of the story build up, the ceremony and the last champagne celebration part.

    Egor took the role of photography and he did an excellent job capturing all the critical parts of the afternoon and evening. His work was top notch and he made sure that we were getting the shots we asked for. They are both super friendly, but made sure they worked hard. They came a long way from LA to make sure we could make this happen.

    Chris and I loved the outcome of both the photos and videos. We have watched them dozens of times and felt this was a worthwhile investment for any couple who want to relive their wedding experience.

    Not only that their streamlined process of choosing the video music and website setup was easy and professional.

    Please take the time to see their channel and hire them! You won't regret it.

    Symboll nailed it every step of the way!

    We hired Symboll for our wedding and with covid raging, safety was our top priority. They delivered on all fronts! Everyone was tested, masked and a pleasure to work with. Christian did a fantastic job shooting our wedding and Jillian was always there if you had a question. Because we had a really short timeline with the venue, it was a tough event to shoot. Symboll nailed it every step of the way! I would happily recommend them to anyone and if you are considering hiring them, you should do it now!

    We will cherish our wedding video and photos forever

    We couldn't have asked for a more incredible photographer, videographer, and wedding planner for our special day! Dan, Kaleb, and Diana were a dream to work with. They were professional, friendly, and worked in sync so well that it made our wedding day go by seamlessly. They were all hard workers and worked tirelessly to get the job done! I honestly can't imagine hiring anyone else-it's like they knew exactly what we wanted...saw our visions and dreams for this day through our own eyes. I cry every time I watch our video because it's that beautiful. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Cinestory!

    Amazing experience and quality of work

    We are so glad we chose CineStory. They honestly made the whole process so simple. We knew we wanted photos and a video of our special day and having CineStory to capture both was really beautiful and like I said….way easier for us! They made everything easy and simple for us to understand. We didn’t have to worry about posing for photos then video, etc. They were professional, kind, and clearly knew what they were doing. Our wedding photos are beautiful and I just order some big prints to hang in our house…I can’t wait for our family to see them!! The wedding video is like watching a little movie and we are so glad we have it forever!
