    10/10 would recommend Ian's Creations!

    Hiring Ian was one of the best decisions we made during the wedding planning process. He filmed my sister in law's wedding video and I knew I needed him to capture our special day as well. Ian captured every moment perfectly. When we received our video it brought tears to my eyes! My husband and I couldn't be happier with our wedding video! 10/10 would recommend. We will cherish this video forever! Thank you Ian!!!

    Exceptional!

    Ian and his partner were nothing below phenomenal! They were so professional acted like we were friends for a long time and truly captured the best moments of our wedding! I would hire them 10 times over for any event. Our friends also used him a few years back and were equally impressed. We were a Covid couple so we had to postpone a couple times and Ian was so accommodating with every postponement. Communication was effective and he delivered a video and film that is BEYOND our dreams!! Not only were they hilarious, they were so personal and worked well with all vendors!! Thanks again Ian!!

    Incredible Videographer!

    He could not have been more fun to work with! He captured our day so well while not making us take time out of our day to focus on being filmed. We are so happy with the finished product and could not recommend him more!

    Could not have asked for a better videographer! Ian was so fun to work with and produced the BEST video ever - we can't stop watching it!

    Ian is also incredibly honest and fair - never trying to upsell us on something we didn't need (which we found to be pretty rare in the wedding industry).

    Wedding Videographer Perfection

    Ian and his team were absolutely phenomenal! Ian's Creations went above and beyond to capture all of the moments of our very special wedding day. Ian was communicative, flexible, and a pleasure to work with! We couldn't have picked a better videographer!!

    Hire Ian and his team ASAP!

    I could not be happier with the experience I've had working with Ian and his team. From my initial booking with him in the summer of 2019 to postponing our date to 2021, Ian was so easy to communicate with and always friendly! On the day of the wedding we had never officially met other than a phone call or two and we felt comfortable with him right away! Ian has a very calming, kind presence and is a joy to have around on your big day! When he sent our video, I cried watching it every time. I think I've watched it at least 100 times and it never gets old. He did everything I asked for and more! I could not recommend him and his company more for your wedding film! Thank you Ian!!!

    Worth Every Penny!!!

    Like many others, my (now) husband and I were not entirely sure whether booking a videographer for our wedding was a "must-have" or more of a luxury. We selected the highlight reel and full length wedding film package and can honestly say that, out of an all-star vendor team we were able to book (and then rebook when we had to postpone due to COVID), booking Ian's Creations was one of the best wedding planning decisions we made. Ian was so thorough, organized and responsive that communicating with him throughout our postponement and then finally leading up to the wedding was reassuring and stress-free. When we finally got to meet Ian (and his second shooter, Mat) on our wedding day, it felt as if we were all old friends--it was so much fun to work with the two of them (and a total thrill to get driven around in the Spidey-mobile for our first look) that we often forgot we were "on camera." Our family and bridal party were put at ease while filming and thoroughly enjoyed getting to work with Ian and Mat as well. Of course, nothing tops when we first received our highlight video from Ian--I can't count how many times I've watched it at this point but it has garnered many happy tears from me, my husband, and all our family and friends. It was particularly meaningful to have these memories captured on film and to be able to share a full-length video of our wedding given that there were many loved ones who were unable to attend due to current circumstances. All of this is to say that, if you are unsure as to whether a videographer fits into your wedding budget/vision, please talk to Ian and check out his work--he is absolutely worth every penny.

    Hands down the BEST videographer

    From the beginning, Ian was a delight to work with. He was quick to respond to any questions, extremely kind, and very professional. The plans for our wedding day changed quite a bit due to COVID, but Ian rolled with all of the date changes/downsizing/rearranging that came with getting married in a pandemic without ever batting an eye. When we got our highlight film back I sobbed happy tears the entire way through it – he captured our day more perfectly than I could have imagined. And when we got our full wedding film back a few weeks later, I was in complete shock. We had given up hope of being able to hear anything from our outdoor wedding ceremony, because the winds reached up to 40mph and even people sitting in the front row in-person could hardly hear a thing. But Ian must possess some sort of magic powers, because you can hear every. single. word spoken by me, my husband, our officiant, and our readers. I am so, so happy with all of Ian’s work, and know we will treasure our videos forever. I can’t wait to make a yearly tradition out of watching our videos and reliving all of the joy and love our wedding day held. I would highly recommend Ian for all of your videography needs!

    Ian's Creations is the best!

    Ian and his assistant did a great job videotaping my daughter's wedding day. We couldn't livestream the ceremony for our virtual guests because the internet wasn't strong enough at the wedding venue, but Ian was able to somehow upload his video via a link to my daughter's wedding website. It worked out great! They were extremely professional and I can honestly say I rarely saw them doing their job!

    Incredible Vendor - Highly Recommend

    We loved working with Ian! He was a delight to work with - quick to respond to any questions, extremely kind, and very professional. He perfectly captured how dreamy our day was and I am so grateful for all the moments that he caught on film that my husband I would have never known about. Seeing shots of our loved ones laughing and dancing brings me so much joy. We love our video and I am so happy that we can relive our day over and over again. I highly recommend Ian for all of your videography needs!

    Absolutely Amazing!

    Ian did an amazing job capturing our wedding day. It was a fast paced day with a lot going on, and I barely noticed he was there - in the best way possible! He captured so many wonderful moments and his films were artistic and thoughtful. He was extremely professional and kind and we really could not recommend him more!

    Ian is a pro and a delight

    I can't recommend working with Ian highly enough. My wife and I had certain ideas in mind for our video, and Ian made it happen. To make matters more challenging, it rained torrentially on the day, and Ian was one of the key voices who encouraged us to do the ceremony outside, just as we'd planned. He got soaked, but he was never anything less than delightful.

    Ian is kind, adaptable, and professional, and we would recommend him to anyone. Thank you, Ian!

    Great experience!

    My husband and I couldn't be happier with our wedding video! Ian did a fantastic job. We met with Ian over video before our big day and he was so open to all of our ideas and had great recommendations of how to prepare for the wedding and day of. The video really captured our day in such a beautiful way, I tear up watching it every time. 10/10 recommend!

    Absolutely Fantastic

    Ian and his assistant did an amazing job with our wedding videography! From the beginning it was easy and I really never noticed he was there (in the best way possible). He even sent me a short snippet of the video so I could use it in one of my own I had been doing leading up the wedding. He captured so many beautiful moments and ones I didn't even realized happened and was just lovely to see. I couldn't have imagined our wedding without his service. He truly does an excellent job!

    Ian went above and beyond to make our day the best- the films are incredible!

    Ian was incredible from our first interest email all the way to receiving our wedding films! He communicated very clearly and concisely as to not overwhelm us in the wedding planning process. He was flexible and helpful as we adjusted our wedding plans due to COVID. On our wedding day, Ian provided a calm presence. We felt totally at ease as Ian captured the special moments of our day. Ian went above and beyond- helping set up a last minute live stream and tagging along for a spontaneous post-exit special photo-op. The final products are AMAZING! We are reliving the joy of our wedding day over and over again. We could not recommend Ian's Creations enough to couples looking for a videographer. We will treasure our films forever!

    Incredible Talent

    Ian from Ian’s Creations is an incredible talent, and I promise you want him and his team as part of your wedding day. We were beyond pleased with the final video as well as the highlight reel. Due to getting married in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic, many of our loved ones were not able to celebrate with us, and we are so grateful to have a wedding film that is the quality of a feature full-length movie to share with everyone who was not able to be there. Ian and his partner made us feel incredibly comfortable on the day of the wedding and captured beautiful shots. He created such a beautiful narrative for both the highlight reel and wedding video that we cannot watch either without crying (happy tears of course!). Everyone we have spoken to who has seen the video has been beyond impressed and we are so excited he was able to capture the magic of our small, intimate wedding. Ian is well-respected in the industry and all of our vendors were excited to work with him and his team again. He is a seasoned professional. Beyond that, Ian is also kind, warm, technically skillful. All in all, he is simply the kind of person you feel good having at your wedding and on your team. The turnaround time on our deliverables was so quick, I could not even believe how fast we got back our final products. It was very impressive, and such a treat to watch our videos on our one month anniversary. We are so grateful for Ian capturing our wedding and would recommend him to anyone for special moments in your life. You will be so happy with your decision to hire Ian’s Creations.

    Ian Is Incredible!

    Hiring Ian was one of the first and easiest decisions we made while planning the wedding, and he STILL managed to exceed expectations. Ian and his team are incredibly easy to work with, extremely professional, very friendly, and will immediately put you at ease. I've watched both the highlight and full ceremony films repeatedly since he sent them over and I still cry each and every time. Thank you for perfectly capturing our day!

    Excellent, especially for the price

    We opted for the 2 videographer package with an extra hour of coverage and it was worth every penny. We got excellent shots of important moments from 2 angles and it made both our highlight video and also our 20 min cinematic video very fun and interesting to watch. No matter what package you choose, Ian was quick to respond, excellent to work with, fun and engaging, and produced an excellent product that only a professional could do. Would highly recommend, especially because his price is so good for the product he provides. Most videographers of his expertise are charging $6000 on this site.

    Wonderful videographer!

    Ian and his assistant Mat did an absolutely fantastic job with our wedding videography! Ian was excellent to work with from start to finish. He was easy to get in touch with and quick to answer questions, and he was a great addition to our vendor team on the wedding day. Ian and Mat were prompt, professional, friendly, and so helpful, and they captured every special moment of our day beautifully while managing to be completely unobtrusive (I often forgot they were there, and I mean this in the best way possible!). Our highlight film is absolutely stunning! Ian and Mat included all of the special moments and paired them perfectly with music and audio from our ceremony and toasts. We have already watched it over and over again, and our families love it! We can't wait to watch the full length video from the wedding and will be so glad to have that for years to come. I would highly recommend a wedding video, as it was so nice to go back and remember moments we had already forgotten since the day was such a blur. I wouldn't recommend just any videographer though--I would definitely choose Ian! He has a great eye for unique shots and does an excellent job of capturing every beautiful moment. He was great to be around on the wedding day and super helpful with one of our requests for editing after the fact as well.
