FROM FOB We have insisted on videography for our kids' weddings. There is so much that as bride and groom and parents of the bride or groom that you want to see but may not be able to see on the wedding day. Videography captures those moments. However, when videography rises above that level, orchestrates the emotions, crafts the entirety of the story and does so with beauty and grace, the videography becomes artistry. As an amateur photographer, I admittedly have high expectations. Travis and Emily are true artists. Their work is second to none and the passion they display along with their creativity is evident. Just as important, they are warm and encouraging and I know that in our case really put the bride and groom at such ease that the love and celebration was boundless. I am rating Bella Tiamo 5 only because there are not six stars.
I can’t recommend Bella Tiamo enough! They have done 3 of my families weddings prior to us and I dreamed about having them shoot my wedding since! Our photos and videos came out stunning (as aspected, of course!!) but the professionalism throughout the entire process of booking, countless emails and throughout our wedding day was truly unbelievable. I couldn’t imagine anyone else capturing our wedding like them. All of our memories are captured so perfectly that I feel like I’m reliving the day every time I look at them! THANK YOU!!!! ☺️
What an amazing experience not only for the bride and groom but also for our entire family. I am the mother of the groom writing this review and I couldn’t have imagined a more beautiful video of their special day. A video that brought me to tears right from the beginning and through the end over and over again each time we watched it. This husband and wife team are absolutely precious, and they are both so talented and gifted in their passion. They are what I call the dynamic duo and are truly gifted in their craft. They don’t just capture footage they capture priceless moments which the bride, groom and their family depend on and Travis and Emily (Bella Tiamo) certainly did just that. We had coordinated many different little moments throughout the day with various family members and there’s not one moment that they didn’t capture. The one moment that was so beautiful for me as a mom was when they captured a special moment with my son and I. His dad and I were giving our son some gifts the day of his wedding and we got a chance to spend a few minutes with him before he saw his beautiful bride. After giving our son his gifts he reached over to me and kissed me on the forehead as he always would. I got emotional and teared up since he’s been doing this since he was a little boy. I immediately looked over to Travis the videographer and asked Travis “did you capture that moment” and Travis responded, “I got it” and that’s what makes them so special is he was able to capture a moment without realizing how much it meant to me. This is just one example of a single image or short video clip which can be so profound, and that moment was captured for me which was priceless. Travis and Emily are true story tellers. Great videographers involve more than just aiming your video camera at your scene or subject. It involves capturing the moment and allowing visual elements to tell the story. The angles that they used to capture the moments are seen throughout. One of the most special highlights that evening was towards the end of the night they took the bride and groom and some family members to see a small sneak peak of a trailer that they put together during the wedding and as we watched, tears of happiness began watching our son and his beautiful bride get married. I knew at that moment that we had made the right decision going with Bella Tiamo. Once we received our final video it was above and beyond my expectations. The tears were flowing through from the very beginning until the end. The various moments that were happening before our very eyes were captured but more importantly it captured the beauty and emotions of what our son and our daughter in law felt that day and we will forever have this video to cherish and also to share with our growing family. We are forever grateful for you both, your dedication, your hard work, professionalism, kindness and your eye for capturing so many amazing moments. I think all of us are gifted in some way and it’s evident that you both are gifted in the work that you do as it shows in the final reveal in our wedding video. If you're looking for the best of the best in the industry, Bella Tiamo is the way to go. Your wedding day is one day but the memories they capture will be a lifetime to cherish. Your both truly AMAZING!
