    Budget friendly with Not-So-Budget Work 10/10!!!

    Shawn did an amazing job at our wedding— he perfectly captured so many details and memories of the day. His hilight reel was so professional and we will forever cherish this ~5 min clip, in addition to the hour one. He worked in tandem with our photographer, Heather Chipps, and together they made it so easy to relive our magical day. It is nice to know that your photographer and videographer respect each others’ independent work in a manner they can both capture the many details throughout the day without hindering each others independent job. Drone coverage was on my list of “musts” when looking for a videographer. He captured the vineyard/property and us dancing outside of the chapel (my favorite part of his work, although it was hard to pick a favorite). I cannot recommend Thorns and Thistles Videography enough; Shawn was so detail oriented and listened to my wishes for “do’s and don’ts” and let me pick out many parts of what he would then put together for the final videos. Thank you so much, Shawn!!

    Excellent to work with

    For just meeting him the day of this videographer was amazing. He was so easy to work with and made us feel special all day. Does a great job without ripping you off. Also super quick to respond to any questions or concerns.

    Exceeded expectations!

    When me and my husband were searching for wedding videographers we were looking for one that included a package of what we wanted without spending a fortune. Thorns and thistles was recommended to me by a friend and I am so glad I chose them! They were quick to respond to questions and covered our day beautifully. A majority of my friends who have gotten married in the past waited months to get their wedding videos back and we had ours in less than 2 months! The video perfectly captured our day and was beautifully edited. Thanks again!!

    Amazing Work!

    I am so glad that we made the decision to hire Thorns and Thistles! Shawn was our videographer and he was top notch! He worked side by side with our photographer and they both helped us to make decisions on things when we felt like we were starting to wear down. We didn't hire a coordinator, and there were a few times when we needed a message relayed to someone else on the other side of the venue and Shawn would always jump at the opportunity to help us out. When we got our social media clip, and our full video, we were speechless with the quality of work from Thorns and Thistles. It was so unique to have drone footage! The choices in background music was perfect and I like how we got to pick out some of the songs that were used. I would recommend Thorns and Thistles to anyone looking to hire an amazing videographer!

    Best wedding videographer ever!!!!

    Shawn was amazing from the time he got there until he left worked every minute and captured such a beautiful video for us. He is very easy to work with and most of the time you think he isn’t there. He is so nice and follows through with everything he promises and more!!!!

    My Dream wedding video

    When I was planning my wedding, everyone told me I have to get a videographer! So I did my research and I am beyond glad that I found thorns and thistles! They were so easy to coordinate with and when meeting Shawn it all made sense. He was so easy going, didn't make it weird following me around all night, had the best personality and made it so much fun. I received my package a month later and had the social media clip up then too. They went out of their way, they sent a couple copies for the video, a flash drive version and even sent some sweet treats for us to enjoy while watching. The movie made me cry all over again and I'm so excited that I get to watch this day over and over for years to come!

    So personal

    We are so blessed to have thorns and thistles capture our day. They were so down to earth and great to work with throughout our planning and the wedding day. They were very flexible and go-with-the-flow! We’ve really enjoyed reliving our day and it’s all because of them that we are able to do so.

    Shawn was extremely professional and courteous and we were so lucky to have him at our event! He got some incredible shots and some perfect little moments from our reception. Shawn was also quick to communicate and very accommodating. I would gladly and wholeheartedly recommend Thorns and Thistles for any future event.


    PS. They have access to video-drones and captured some breathtaking footage of our venue landscape. Going with them was the best vender decision we made.

    They were awesome !!!! Great from the beginning till the end when our video arrived with memories that we will cherish forever. We had snow on our wedding day and they were as excited as us to document the beauty of a wedding with a snowy backdrop. It was magical and we are so thankful Thorns and Thistles was there to save all the special memories for us.

    This couple is just AWESOME! Thorns and Thistles videoed both my son and daughter's wedding this summer and they did an outstanding job. I have no complaints. They are very professional and outstanding to work with. They arrived on time and worked til my daughter and her husband left and that is exactly what I had asked for. They quickly got the video processed and shipped out to us. I would highly recommend you to contact them If you are looking for something videoed.

    Shawn and Katie were wonderful and so easy to work with! They captured every special moment of our wedding day and the video they put together highlighting it all was amazing! They really care about you and what you want and want to make sure you are happy. I'm so thankful we found them to be our wedding videographers. Great work at an affordable price!
