Zelle & Jerry Olson are a fantastic pair and a perfect videographer company for our wedding celebration. My husband and I could not have chosen a better vendor to put together the most awesome & memorable wedding video; including our complete highlights video and our entire wedding day festivities for the best price. They were so professionalism and so wonderful to work with. They were so outstanding on the day of. They showed up on time and delivered our videos earlier than what we expected. Now we have a wedding video to watch over and over again and share with all our friends and family.

Thank you again so very much Zelle & Jerry! You guys are amazing! and we absolutely love the beautiful, cute and lovely videos you made for us that sums up our perfect day so wonderfully and so close to what happened on our awesome wedding day.

Videographer Captures Every Special Moment of a Beautiful Day

Is it true that "A Picture is Worth 1,000 Words? It is if you have Jerry Dallons Photography and Zelle Olson Studio as the photographer/ videographer team at your wedding.

This husband-and-wife dynamic duo were wonderful to work with at our daughter's wedding in May 2018 at the Santa Barbara Historical Museum. They and their assistant, Bill, were with us all day -- 10 hours-- taking pictures and video at the Spanish Garden Inn where we dressed, as we walked several blocks on the streets of Santa Barbara to the venue, just prior to and during the ceremony, and afterwards, for the cocktail hour, reception, and dancing. The cameras and video mics were hidden during the ceremony, and they did not disrupt any part of the day, whether it was during the solemnity of the exchange of vows or the fun celebration on the dance floor. Our guests and the vendors told my husband and me how much they enjoyed working with them. We were never aware of Jerry and Zelle doing their magic except during the posed family and bridal party photos.

And what magic it was!! Our family and friends have raved about the exquisite photos (which we received from Jerry in about 10 days, with some highlight photos available in a week) and the fun video (which we received from Zelle in less than three weeks, with some highlight ones available in one week). Jerry was meticulous in touching up the 600+ photos so the colors and lighting were exactly right, and Zelle's editing of the 26-minute video captured all the important sounds and sights the day.
Jerry has posted five photos from our daughter's wedding on his website, and each is a gem.

Their fee was extremely reasonable, and they honored their agreement with us, which was conducted over the phone and by email. My husband and I live in Virginia, the bride and groom live in New York City, and the wedding was in California, so it was only possible for Jerry and Zelle to meet with the bride and groom and his family once about four months before the wedding. They connected right away. I "met" Jerry only over the phone several times during the planning process and then greeted him and Zelle in person the morning of the wedding. Yet, I never doubted my decision to have them photograph and video our only daughter's wedding. During our phone conversations, he fully outlined the services he and Zelle would provide, and boy, did they deliver an amazing product!

Truly, their magnificent pictures and superlative video are worth more than a mere 1,000 words, which cannot begin to describe the beautiful keepsakes Jerry Dallons and Zelle Olson produced for us of our daughter's wedding. Don't hesitate for a moment to hire this remarkable and personable team.
