    Excellent Video Work

    Graham was splendid to work with. He was recommended to us by our photographer, and we're super grateful. When we were looking through his portfolio, my DH was most excited by the fact that most of his highlight reels were upbeat and fun, rather than slow and romantic. He got fantastic footage the day of the wedding, especially considering he was only one man, with only one camera. He collaborated with us on picking a perfect "cinematic" score for our highlight reel, and both it and the 2-hour+ documentary edit he sent us were fabulous. We look forward to watching our videos over and over for the rest of our lives!

    After receiving the videos, this is what I wrote to Graham:
    ---------------------
    Hi Graham,

    These are BEAUTIFUL!!!! You captured the entire day and did a GREAT
    job with the edits, especially with the ceremony. Thank you SO MUCH
    for creating a living, lasting memory for us.

    Graham is a true progressional and made every step so simple — this is critical for a bride planning her wedding! Getting info and rates was so straightforward and his website is polished and clearly outlines his pricing. No hidden fees! His final product just reflects how amazing he is. For one person, he’s able to capture so much and edit in a way that really captures all the important details of our wedding day in a very high quality video that we will cherish for the rest of our lives! I would highly recommend Graham to all my friends and family! Choosing Graham was one of our best decision!!!

    My mother injured her back just a few days before the wedding and was not able to travel out. Knowing that there would be video footage made the news much more bearable. On its 'insurance' merits alone, I recommend that you hire a videographer if your budget allows it.

    As to the specific videographer, Graham has a great touch with the camera-shy; he promised us that we wouldn't even notice him after the first few minutes, and he was right. It was painless, but more importantly he did a great job with the final edit. Calm, intimate moments beforehand, shots celebrating the chaos of family, and judicious editing of the last few hours of the reception. Top notch all around!

    Thank you Graham, for the lovely video, and for celebrating our day with us!

    Thank you, Graham King from Final Frame Studios, for being our wedding videographer! When we were searching initially for videographers, we noticed that the majority of the companies advertised the 3-5 minute video as their main package and would add full coverage videos at an extra premium cost (ie. the full ceremony, speeches, special dances). My partner and I were less interested in the short video because we wanted to go back and visit the entire day! Additionally, when we were previewing videos from other companies, we noticed that many of them superimposed different songs over the video coverage instead of using the audio from the actual event. My husband and I were very deliberate in our choices of songs for each moment of the wedding and we wanted the video to capture that. Graham was one of the only companies offering full wedding coverage as a main package and would use the audio from the actual event in the video. His style is a lot like a home video, but much more professional! Graham is extremely well prepared too. The most important part of the ceremony for us was the live music performance put on by members of our wedding party. We were concerned that the sound quality of these performances would be sub-par since the ceremony was outside and unfortunately the microphones went out during our ceremony. There was no need for us to worry! Graham prepared for the worst and when we finally saw the video we were blown away with the quality of the video and the sound! Thank you so much for capturing these important moments for us! Another important aspect of the video to us was interviewing certain guests. We had A LOT people on this list and Graham, even though he stated some concern with getting to everyone, he was able to do it! He also included footage of me and my husband giving special messages to each other! Graham is a quite presence, very professional and extremely easy to work with. We would recommend him to anyone.

    Videography was the last vendor we booked for our July wedding. It wasn't a priority and thought we could live without it, but are so glad we went with our gut. Graham was the only videographer we considered and it all worked out perfectly.

    Before our wedding, we met to just go over simple details Much of our correspondence was via email. I wasn't quite sure what to expect and didn't know what questions to ask, but it all worked out because Graham seriously makes it EASY. We had nothing to worry about.

    On the day of the wedding, I barely noticed Graham was there (in a good way of course!) He was very warm with us and everyone and surprised us with a thing (which I shouldn't give away).

    Graham got us our documentary edit by the deadline and downloading was a piece of cake. It took under 10 minutes. We have been enjoying each part over time, so we have not finished it all yet. I wasn't exactly sure what to expect with a doc edit, but we are thoroughly impressed with how cohesive it was put together. He truly made a story. We love his cinematographic approach and found his perspectives and angles artistic. What was also surprising is how much his mic picked up when we were saying our vows. I whispered things not knowing that it was caught! We were concerned that we missed people and details with our photographs, but Graham makes it up and helps us to relive things we may have missed.

    We highly recommend Graham!!

    Graham is a very professional and talented journalistic videographer!

    I first met Graham when we worked together at a TV station in Oakland about 15 years ago, so I already knew he knows what he's doing and can provide quality work. My (now) husband is also very keen on photography and videography, so when he loved Graham's online portfolio as much as I did, we asked Graham some questions and selected him to be our videographer instantly! Fortunately, he was available for our wedding date in June 2017, so we booked him a year in advance :) He was very professional and straight forward in the booking process and the next steps.

    Fast forward to about a month before our wedding, Graham was on point in following up with us on what we wanted him to capture on our big day, if we wanted him to interview and record our guests, the wedding day timeline, and the contact info of our DJ, whom he privately contacted to ensure that the ceremony audio was recorded and that the mics were set up. Additionally, he gave us encouraging words and shared his excitement, which was very sweet.

    On the day of, he arrived at the hotel promptly, where my bridesmaids and I were getting our hair and makeup done, along with where we did some wedding games before the first look.Graham dressed professionally in black, had a supportive smile, and recorded all the action seamlessly. He also worked well with my photographer and photographer's assistant, whom were there concurrently. He joined us for a bit when we had photoshoot outside of John's Ice Cream in Berkeley, then briefly on our walk to Cal campus.

    During the ceremony and reception at the Brazilian Room, he was unobtrusive and captured so much for a one-man team! He shared our videos with us 2 months after the wedding, as promised, and we love his work! It's like we get to re-live every aspect of our wedding day every time that we watch our high quality videos. Highly recommend him as a wedding videographer!

    Working with Graham was an extraordinary part of our wedding day and entire wedding experience. In the beginning, we were uncertain if videography would be part of our wedding--we wanted to keep an intimate feel and the idea of a camera crew following us around sounded too impersonal. And then we found Graham. His style was everything we hoped for. From the moment we first spoke with Graham, it was clear that he knew what he was doing. His professionalism, quick response, and experience were evident when he was able to answer what seemed like 3238 of our questions. He worked with us to understand what we hoped to share of our wedding day. He also took the time to plan accordingly, as we had surprises in store for each other. Connecting with him was a breeze--he was quick to respond to email, had amazing input for planning our timeline, and worked with our budget.

    We knew we had picked the perfect person, but the day of our wedding, he surpassed our expectations! He captured our wedding day in the same style that we lived it. He managed to capture everything--and yet he was discreet. it was never a production, it was our intimate wedding day. He captured the moments before the wedding in their truest form. He captured the ceremony and reception in a way that we live through it each time we watch the video. He was unobtrusive yet completely involved. The final product was our wedding day, the way we lived it. We didn't want glamorous, we wanted us. Graham gave us the gift of reliving our wedding day the way it happening. This is talented, documentary-style video at it's finest. We couldn't be more thrilled with the final result!

    Graham did an amazing job capturing our wedding day! His documentary edit caught all our favorite moments and so much more. Somehow he was everywhere even though he blended right in on the day of. Our only regret was not booking him for overtime! We will be watching our video over and over again :) He was also a pleasure to work with and always responded to our emails promptly. He was very organized and attentive to our needs. I will be recommending him to all my friends!

    We haven't had our wedding day, but we are so excited to work with Graham. When we had our consultation he was very thorough about what we should expect and we love this style of videography. We wanted something different than the typical cinema style and when we saw that he did documentary we knew we really wanted to book him for our wedding.

    Graham King! What can I say! Amazing! During wedding planning Then fiancé at the time and I were going back and forth on whether we were going to have a video. We decided finally that it was a must have because the day would fly and it was something we wanted to remember forever. The next question was who? My husband was on Facebook and our DJ tagged him in a post about Final Frame and then he shared it to my page and we began to research him. Upon reviews and watching previous clips of weddings that Graham did we were hooked! I called him and we talked details and packages. I was immediately comfortable with him and felt that I had I known him for a long time! We met up with him to go over the day a bit and get our deposit paid. Graham is amazing! Wedding day came and he was there every moment and captured all the highlights, moments we missed and the interviews are amazing! The video is outstanding quality and my husband and I couldn't be happier! Graham is professional in every way. If you're on the fence for a videographer do it! Pick Graham and Final Frame!

    We first found Graham and Final Frame Studios through The Knot. After looking through his sample videos, we fell in love with Graham's documentary shooting style. It's beautiful but simple, exactly what we were looking for. We didn't want fancy edits or animation effects, just a way for us to relive our special day.

    Fast forward a few months, we recently received our videos and we couldn't be happier with our choice. The videos are simply amazing. We are having parties with families and friends and are having a blast going through the material. I would recommend Graham and Final Studio to anyone else. He's professional, easy to work with and a pretty awesome videographer.

    If you choose to go with Graham, you will not be disappointed. He is a wonderful guy to work with and an incredibly gifted videographer. I spent a good two months looking for someone to shoot our wedding. As someone who works in film and television, behind the camera and as an editor, I knew what I was looking for in terms of aesthetic, quality, service and price. Graham exceeded my expectations in every regard.

    Working with him has been wonderful - from our initial contact, to the planning, to the day of. He was great with responding and helped work out a shooting schedule that allowed us to get the most for our money. Though he is based in the Bay Area, he was more than happy to come to Sacramento to shoot our wedding at the Firehouse.

    I was planning the wedding from France and so didn't get a chance to meet him until the big day but I can say without reservation that it was the least stressful part of the wedding. He showed up and shot and I didn't have to worry about a thing.

    I was very happy that it was just him and not a team of camera guys. It's surprisingly difficult being followed around, photographed and filmed, as if you are on reality TV. The less people the better - it allows you to stay in the moment and focus on your friends, your family and getting married.

    My husband and I are so very happy with the final product. We just went through the footage and love ALL of it. The video is absolutely gorgeous and the sound is flawless. We chose the documentary edit, which was exactly what I was looking for. I love the simplicity of the editing. Graham captured our wedding day and the memories that we made so beautifully.

    We just received our wedding video and we are in love! It was so beautifully done and I am so pleased! Graham did an amazing job and we couldn't be happier. He was able to capture every single special moment and did such a beautiful job! He worked so nicely with the photographer and the other members of the venue. It was very elegant and gracefully done. I'm so glad we decided to go with him. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a videographer! Thank you for capturing my special day in such a beautiful way for me. I absolutely love it! You're the best!!

    Graham exceeded our expectations! He is highly professional, didn't get in the way at all during the wedding, and did a fabulous job capturing the whole event. He came prepared, and sent us the final video 2 months after, exactly what he promised. He was even willing to make a couple changes after we received the video. I highly recommend using him as your videographer! And if you're on the fence about having a videographer in the first place, don't be! You will be so grateful that your family and future children will be able to experience your special day.

    Graham is a seriously artistic and professional videographer! He was beyond worth every penny. From the initial correspondence, he was on top of answering questions and solving electrical problems. He went out his way to ensure our audio would be proper. The quality of his video (and audio) is AMAZING and we can’t imagine not having him at our wedding. We are SO IMPRESSED!!! Absolutely brilliant work.

    Graham was exceptional! If we could give him ten stars we would. He captured our wedding day so perfectly. We absolutely treasure the footage. It's hard to believe he was able to shoot it entirely by himself without any assistance. Thank you Graham!

    We are so grateful that Graham shot our wedding at the Brazilian Room in Berkeley, CA. Lucky for us, Graham is very familiar with the venue and the surrounding area since he has shot there many times before. He is professional and unobtrusive, allowing everyone to be themselves and for the genuine emotions of the day to emerge. It's amazing how much he was able to capture for just one person.

    Graham captured all the ceremony, toasts, dances, cake cutting in their entirety. It was great to re-watch all of it and relive the day from the perspective of the guests. It's amazing how much sound his camera picks up, too. You can hear all the conversations--even the ones happening in the background! It was also a sweet surprise to receive personal messages from our guests in the video.

    We chose the documentary edit package, and couldn't be happier. At first we just expected to receive the raw footage of our wedding, which we would then sift through on our own; but on the contrary everything was pieced together in a cohesive way that told the story of our day. It was like watching an actual documentary of our wedding! We could tell how much time, thought and consideration went into editing the documentary, yet he still delivered in a timely manner (less than 2 months!).

    We highly recommend Graham, and will consider him first for any future needs. Thank you!

    Graham shot our wedding this past April, and I can't believe we ever considered not having a videographer! His pricing is very reasonable, and his style is exactly what we wanted.

    On the day of our wedding, it was almost as if he wasn't there. But by no means does this mean he failed to capture anything. Graham was able to get every last detail of our wedding, from our entire wedding party prepping in the morning, to the late night dancing and snacks!

    We couldn't be happier with our decision to hire him! If you're still debating whether or not to hire a videographer, please do, and look no further than Final Frame Studios...it is SO, SO worth it to be able to re-live the biggest day of your life, and to see things you missed or forgot! The way Graham captures your day is simply amazing!

    We hired Graham for our April wedding and his documentary edit was amazing. He is quiet, meticulous, and captured so many special moments. He was great about asking whether we wanted guest interviews (yes), and made sure to get them from all the VIPs (parents, wedding party, etc). The sound quality was excellent (he made sure to plugged into the ceremony sound system set up by the DJ), and the framing, angles, and lighting were all excellent. It was so special to re-live the day by watching the great video he made for us.

    We wanted to keep our wedding video within a relatively modest budget, but still wanted not to compromise in any way. We are so glad we found Graham. He was very professional, explained the process to us, and could work around our timings. He beautifully captured our Hindu wedding ceremony. He even interviewed our guests, many of whom were not English speaking. It turned out so well, it is almost a ritual for us now to watch our wedding video. We are incredibly happy with the work and service we received.

    One of the best things we did while planning our daughters wedding was hiring Graham as the videographer! To have the opportunity to “attend” the wedding again, from a variety of clear, clean, well lit perspectives anytime we wish is such an amazing gift. Not only is Graham skilled technically but it is important to point out that he is a genuinely nice guy and a joy to be around. I feel so fortunate to have found him.

    My husband Chris and I were referred to Graham King-Final Frame Studios by our wedding photographer. He met us in advance, and we booked him shortly after. He responds to emails rather quickly. Graham is warm, kind, professional and truly talented. The quality of his work well exceeded any other videographer I had looked into. I could not have asked for an amazing wedding video. He captured all the little details that came together for one evening, in a year of planning. We received our video a little over month after our wedding in October, and waited until Christmas Eve to view our wedding video with our families. I'm truly grateful we were referred to Graham. You rock!

    While trying to figure out if we wanted to hire a videographer for our wedding, I spoke to numerous married friends and they all said that the day was a blur since everything is so frenetic and crazy the day of. With that said, we thought it was a no-brainer to hire a videographer so we could forever capture our special day.

    Graham was the only wedding vendor that me and my wife did not physically meet before putting our deposit and this was due to his stellar reputation from all the reviews when scoping out which option gave us the best value for our money. We saw Graham's website and the work he's done for weddings and we loved his work.

    Prior to our wedding day, Graham was very accessible and asked us the right questions to know where he would need to be and when he would need to be there. He arrived on time, was very professional, and captured our day in a candid and raw view that really gave us a different perspective of our wedding. We're happy with the results and Graham was one of our top wedding vendors.
