Joe of Stoltz Media did a wonderful (read: kickass) job creating our beautiful wedding video. Not only is it a priceless memento for my husband and I, but I’m still getting regular compliments and comments like, “I cry every time I watch it!” and “He totally nailed the vibe!” from family and friends, months later.

Working with Stoltz Media: Joe is super easy to communicate with via email, and seems to genuinely care about creating something unique and representative of each client and event. That said, he is also incredibly creative and skilled/knowledgeable as a designer and music buff, so you can rest assured that he’ll create something awesome even if you don’t know exactly what you want. He’s straightforward, organized, and open to suggestions (though he’ll tell you if he has a better solution, which he often does!). On our wedding day, Joe was prompt and set up in such a timely manner that he even spared a few minutes to help us move some tables. He was ready to rock despite the overcast day and occasional showers, always right in the middle of the action without being distracting—an impressive feat given that he is a tall dude with a big beard and a bunch of gear. In addition, he made all of our close friends, family members, and vendors feel super comfortable with his charisma, professionalism, punny sense of humor, and warm, booming laugh.

The final product: You wouldn’t know that Joe was a one-man show, because he managed to capture the night from various camera angles, while catching an impressive amount of intimate details that allowed us to enjoy our wedding day from a totally different perspective. Speaking of details…Joe is most definitely a details man. From using the perfect lens to capture a certain moment, to synching up the music or a lyric perfectly with a gesture or expression—Joe knows what he’s doing, and he does it well. The result is great footage and a living, breathing final product that feels satisfyingly whole.

Joe was a pleasure to work with, and I highly recommend Stoltz Media! We weren't sure at first whether we should hire a videographer for our wedding, but now we can't imagine not having nostalgic footage from our wedding to look back at. Static photographs are nice, but we're so glad Joe craftfully captured the priceless moments and movements that bring our wedding back to life every time we rewatch our video.

On the day of the wedding, Joe arrived early with a cheerful attitude, ready to start filming wherever we needed him. He immediately put us at ease with his fun and friendly demeanor. Despite inclement weather that changed both where we could film and our overall timeline, Joe kept a positive attitude and adapted on the fly to the updated parameters. He proposed great shot ideas and was very receptive to what we wanted. Joe always managed to be in the right spot at the right time, and he was always ready to start filming. Despite being quite active throughout, he never seemed in the way and was by no means overbearing. He also did a masterful job of collaborating with our photographers. All the vendors that interacted with him praised how nice and helpful he was.

We really appreciated that Joe is a clear communicator, has a knack for details, and is highly skilled at what he does. He was also very flexible during the editing process, both listening to our input, as well as coming up with a bunch of neat, artistic ideas on his own. His music selection and sound editing were also very well thought-out. We were thrilled at the quality of the final video and with how well Joe captured the spirit and emotions from our special day!

Joe did an amazing job capturing our wedding! We had an unexpected torrential downpour on the day of our wedding, but Joe braved the elements without hesitation and fear for his equipment in an effort to get all of the best possible shots. The end result was a gorgeous wedding video with a perfectly chosen song and lovely editing. It captured the mood of our wet wedding absolutely perfectly. Our family and friends were wowed by the quality of the video and we're still receiving compliments about it!

Joe himself is one of the most down-to-earth, friendly people I've met in a long time. His jovial personality and charming demeanor kept a smile on our faces throughout the big day. It was an absolute treat to have him at our wedding! If you're looking for a videographer, definitely reach out to Joe. We'd choose him to capture our wedding again in a heartbeat.
