    Brian perfectly captured our amazing day!

    From introduction to the planning, the wedding day and the final product of our wedding video, Brian was a TOP NOTCH professional to work with. He was kind, considerate, fun and produced incredibly high quality work. My wife Hannah and I are incredibly happy with our experience and would absolutely recommend working with Brian.

    Incredible Videographer

    My husband and I were so grateful to work with Brian as our videographer on our wedding day. From booking our wedding date, to having various planning zoom consultations before the big day, and on wedding day, Brian was incredibly attentive to what we wanted to make of our video, easy to communicate with, professional and friendly. His online platforms are very efficient and he is very clear what to expect throughout the process of working with him. Our favorite part of working with Brian was his calm, respectful, and hardworking demeanor on our wedding day. We felt very comfortable working with him on our wedding day and our wedding party and family members felt similarly. We received a highlight reel of wedding day footage the following morning, which was an awesome surprise. He delivered our final video to us within our expected contracted timeline as well! He captured the joy, emotion, and beauty of the day. We are so grateful to have this gift to look back on! We highly recommend Brian to be your videographer for your wedding day, it will be one of the best decisions you will make!

    The Best Decision!

    After contemplating if we should even video our wedding, we are so grateful that we hired Brian as our videographer! In addition to a professionally produced video, he captured our personalities and the unique characteristics of our wedding. It took our breaths away to relive our most important day in such a genuine depiction. The drone footage was an added bonus. Brian was fun, cheerful, relaxed, & adaptable. He eagerly followed what/how we wished to capture our day while offering helpful suggestions. We immediately felt at ease with him and felt like we said goodbye to a friend at the end of the night. Thank you Brian for these beautiful memories! It was the best decision!

    Schornberg Media is amazing. Highly recommend!

    Brian was an absolute pleasure to work with, and we love our video. From start to finish working with Brian was seamless. He helped us understand our options, was an absolute joy to have around on wedding day, and delivered a video that we and all our friends and family absolutely love. He does an amazing job understanding you and your priorities ahead of time so that he can capture and put together a video that is unique to you and somehow seems to have special moments we hadn't even realized he captured! I would recommend Brian to everyone!

    Incredible wedding videographer in VA

    Hiring Brian to film our wedding day was a fabulous decision! He is super talented, knowledgeable, a true professional, and is just such a delight to work with. He is adaptable and can flow with any circumstances and work well with other key vendors (photographers, planners) to capture the best video and make the process smooth. It was important to me that Brian capture truly authentic moments and elements of our day and he did just that. Because your videographer is going to be in the background with you throughout most of the day, it is important hire a someone that you feel comfortable with and brings energy that you’re looking for on your big day. Brian is both of those things: fun, focused, light-hearted and positive. During the planning process, he helped us identify the best package to suit our needs and was always responsive, honest, and helpful. I like that he doesn’t have set packages and rather works with your unique needs to customize a video package for your big day. He also took time to get to know me and my partner, and the important elements of our wedding, so that he knew where to focus, the style of film we were looking for. And how to genuinely tell our story. We are so excited to see the drone footage – what a cool offering. I HIGHLY recommend hiring Brian and Schornberg Media to film your wedding!

    Brian was wonderful! Brian’s approach was thoughtful from the start to finish. Brian was welcoming and warm, which made us much more natural in front of the camera.

    Nothing short of amazing

    Brian really hit the ball out of the park with our wedding video! He made such a special video that will help us relive the best day of our lives over and over again. Not only is the video the best I’ve ever seen, but Brian was an absolute joy to work with! So personable, fun, nice and professional, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

    Moving Pictures, Energy & Emotion All in a Single Video

    My mother always told me two things:
    1.        If you don’t have something nice to say, don’t say anything at all and
    2.        A picture is worth a thousand words.
    With that in mind, this review is “mother approved”.  While mom told me that a picture is worth a thousand words, she never explained how many words a video is worth.  Whatever that number is, I can assure you that Brian’s video is exponential to that figure.
     
    We were reluctant to sign for the wedding video services and it was honestly the last item that we selected for my daughter’s wedding.  As with many events in 2020/2021, our guest list was limited and even began to decrease as we got closer to the date.  We approached Brian and asked about streaming video so that guests who were not able to attend in person could still be a part of the wedding party.  Brian explained that he could set a camera at the back of the venue and upload raw video footage shortly after the ceremony; he seemed almost apologetic that it would be raw unedited video footage, but this was exactly what we were looking for as it provided a back seat view for our remote guests.  We selected his service and within about an hour of the ceremony, we were able to reach out to our remote guests to let them know that they could view the ceremony online.  While they were not there in person, they had the opportunity to watch the video as we continued with the reception, so we knew that they were there in spirit, thoughts and prayers.  I think that we would have all been happy with just this raw video footage of the ceremony, but Brian took it to the next level and promised an edited version including video from the reception.  
     
    Brian just released the edited video and I am beyond words.  I was under the impression that a video would be someone capturing “pictures in motion”, but his video is so much more than just a series of pictures.  It is impossible to watch this video and not feel the energy and emotions of my daughter’s wedding.  I never thought of the audio as playing a part, but Brian nailed it with the music selections while incorporating voiceovers from the wedding onto the video.  
     
    There were two very special moments in this video for me.  The first was when Brian took an excerpt from my speech and inserted it on top of the video for the Father Daughter Dance.  The song was “I Loved Her First" and the audio voiceover could not have been more perfectly placed by inserting the audio of me saying “I am so thankful that God has put the two of you together” just as I was handing my daughter off to her new husband midway through the song. 
     
    The second was when Brian somehow reengineered the audio from their vows with both of them taking turns saying “I promise to love and care for you” and they both said “all of the days of my life” at the exact same time.  It would have been too simple to leave this audio as part of the ceremony; instead, the audio is placed over video from different parts of the day.  Okay, there was a third when my daughter and her “soon to be” husband read their letters to each other just before the ceremony.  Cannot forget about the perfectly timed fountain kiss, but we both know that Brian had some help from the remarkable Keswick Vineyard Venue staff with this one; this just proved that his ability to work with all of the venders was outstanding.    
     
    I cannot image how many hours Brian spent scouring through video and audio; at one point in the video, I count at least three different audios combined together for what ended up being this most remarkable video.  I could obviously go on forever, but you should know that Brian does not offer just video services; these services include a full range of video and audio that displays love, exhilaration and so many more emotions.  Thank you Brian. . . We could not be more happy with the services and support that you provided to those of us who were at the ceremony and so many more who were there in spirit.  It was truly a remarkable day that will now be cherished forever.
    Thanks again!

    Wonderful!

    Brian was such a kind and thoughtful person to work with during our wedding planning process. Initially, we were unsure of whether or not we wanted/needed a videographer at all, but we liked Brian so much, and that solidified our decision! He made us feel at ease and was so thorough as he wanted to best understand our vision for videography on our wedding day. Not to mention, we had so much fun actually capturing the shots with Brian that day. He did such a good job balancing his presence, giving us enough direction but also capturing moments discreetly. The art reel he produced was absolutely stunning, and multiple friends and family have commented on how beautifully it turned out. We are so grateful to know Brian and will value his work forever.

    Extremely Talented Videographer (and photographer!)

    We weren’t sure we wanted a videographer for our wedding and after one zoom call with Brian we were sold. He was the BEST addition we could’ve made. He was receptive to our vision and executed it perfectly in our videos. We are so grateful to have him there to capture the authentic moments of our day. We even had him do photography for our rehearsal dinner and he was fabulous! Our planner Angelica and Co recommended him and thank goodness she did, we are overjoyed with his work. If you’re on the fence with a videographer, Brian is the way to go!

    Stunning photography!

    Brian photographed our wedding this past July in Charlottesville and we are still in such awe of the absolutely stunning photos we received. We have so many gorgeous images to choose from that making the wedding album has been extremely difficult--so many incredible photos to choose from! Brian and his team did such an amazing job photographing our wedding. Thank you so much for guiding us through the entire process and capturing the all the love, beauty and joy of the day! Your work is exceptional and I would highly recommend Brian Schornberg Photography for all your photography (and videography) needs!

    Brian is THE Best!

    We are so thrilled we hired Brian to capture our wedding day. Our wedding video perfectly captures our day and feels just like us. We reached out to a ton of videographers and quickly felt overwhelmed but after our first call with Brian, we knew he was the one we wanted to wok with. He made me feel so calm and comfortable. He is so talented and just wonderful to work with (when you hire him, you'll see what I mean!!) Brian you are SO talented and we couldn't have asked for a more beautiful video!!

    The Sweetest Video & Human

    My wife and I were on the fence about hiring a videographer for our June 2022 wedding. We ended up (through our wedding planner, Angelica & Co) hiring Brian just two weeks before our wedding.

    Even though it was last minute, Brian jumped right in and was so flexible and easy to work with. Day of the wedding - meeting him in person was so wonderful, and immediately felt like having met a friend (something that was important to us when it came to those we worked with).

    Folks from our bridal party and our families had so many positive things to say about Brian. He also ran ALL over the place to shoot getting ready moments, our first look, and, of course, ceremony and reception. His flexibility was so appreciated.


    Cut to our actual video(s) - AMAZING! He did such a fantastic job capturing our love and the essence of our wedding day. There were sweet moments we didn’t even know got captured or happened that we were able to enjoy on our video. Everyone we’ve shown to has raved about it.


    10/10 recommend Brian (just do yourself (and him) a favor and don’t wait until the very last minute to do so).

    Easy to work with and so nice!

    Brian was amazing and integral in capturing the whole day’s experience and all the emotions that came with it.. He made decision-making extremely easy and was super helpful with local recommendations.
    Would 100% recommend him to friends, family, and strangers. My wife and I cried when we first saw the video : )

    Working with Brian was a choice we do not regret!!!

    Working with Brian was a wonderful experience. From start to finish, he was extremely detail-orientated and met up with us for coffee in order to make sure he understood exactly what it was we were looking for in our wedding video. He came through on our special requests and provided a beautiful highlight video that we will cherish for the years to come! Work with Brian and you will not be disappointed!
