Selecting Emerald Cinema for our wedding was the best decision we made! From the jump, Jonathan was super nice, accommodating, and amazing to work with. We had our engagement photoshoot with him and so many of the photos turned out lovely! We explained our vision and goals for the wedding and the Emerald Cinema crew absolutely delivered. They made sure we took every photo that we requested, helped hold my dress, and even did a few magic tricks LOL. We absolutely recommend Emerald Cinema and truly had the best experience because of them :) Also, get the photobooth and additional coverage hours, you won't regret it!

Highly recommend! Adrian, Myra, and Miguel were with us for 10 hours during our wedding and they were the absolute dream team. They were attentive, while being very respectful. We trust that they didn’t miss a single shot but their presence didn’t take away from any special moment. If you were looking for them, they were always there - already pointing their cameras where you’d want them to, but they managed to do it in a way that was never distracting or disruptive. They helped us stick to our timeline, but were also very flexible. They coached us through posing and while we typically aren’t the most comfortable in front of cameras, they truly made the entire experience so fun. We can’t wait to see the final project. Adrian also shot our engagement photos, which we used for our wedding website, invitations, and reception decor, and the photos received so many compliments. Book the full package - photography, videography, and the Photo Booth. You won’t regret it. A million thanks to Jonathan and his team. We loved working with you and will admire your work for decades to come.

We had an amazing experience with Emerald Cinema! My husband and I are actually quite camera shy but Jonathan and his team made taking our engagement and wedding photos easy and exciting. We are thrilled with how our photos and videos came out!!

We got to work with Jonathan and his team to capture our wedding. They were punctual, professional, and respectful. Communication was clear and Jonathon responded to any questions or concerns quickly. We could not recommend them enough!

We hired Jonathan from Emerald Cinema Weddings as our videographer and he blew us away! He climbed around Donner Summit in high winds to get the aerial shots we had our hearts set on and ended up sacrificing his drone to make it happen. That’s the kind of dedication you don’t come across often and we can't thank him enough for doing that. Beyond that, he brought so much positive energy and gave us just the right amount of direction to feel confident and relaxed in front of the camera. Thank you Jonathan for giving it everything you had to capture our day the way we dreamed!

Jonathan and his team were so amazing! We went with the photo and video package (plus the photo booth). We had a couple calls before the big day and Jonathan really helped to make us feel comfortable and confident going into the day. On the day of, Jonathan and his team were super helpful and friendly. Their energy made us feel so good! And they were so on it! As a team, they worked seamlessly together to ensure the best angles! Friends and family described them as ninjas, because we barely noticed they were there, but somehow got the most amazing angles! Would 1000% recommend🥰

We truly cannot say enough good things about Emerald Cinema. From start to finish, they were beyond kind, incredibly patient, and just such a calming, supportive presence on a day full of emotions. Their generosity stood out—whether it was their time, energy, or attention to detail, they gave so much of themselves to make sure our memories were captured beautifully. The final photos and video blew us away—so full of life, love, and everything we hoped to hold on to from that day. They are genuinely talented artists and even better people. We’re so grateful to have had them be part of our wedding!
