We found Dom online for our wedding on July 30 2011, we loved that he had so many positive feedback from his customers who were happy with the outcome of their videos. We met up with him at his house to discuss the possibility of having him shoot our wedding. He was so kind and passionate about his work and we knew immediately after meeting with him that we wanted him to capture our big day. We are from Ethiopia and weddings are Huge and 15-16 hrs long. The day of the wedding Dom and his staff came on time and they were very professional and all of our guests were impressed by their professionalism. Dom was so much fun to work with and his work is Amazing. Today we met up with Dom to pick up our wedding video and he is still so kind and passionate about his work. We were so happy and touched by his generosity. Our wedding day was 16 hours long and he captured all the special moments ( especially all the dance because we Ethiopians love to dance). We got home and we watched all the DVD that he gave us total of 5 hours and we were Amazed and Happy. His work was beyond our expectation and our wedding was Beautiful and a blast. He captured every aspect of our Ethiopian culture and he did not leave anything that was important to us out of the video. He went above and beyond to capture our wedding day and we are forever grateful for the wonderful memories that he gave us. Dom we love you and thank you. We highly recommend Dom and his crew to film your wedding because they are the BEST.

We felt comfortable with Dom from the moment we first met. He was very friendly and professional, and took the time to show us a lot of examples of his work. Dom also took the time the day before the wedding to walk through the church in preparation for our big day. We picked up our DVDs a few weeks ago, and we couldn't be happier with them. They're getting a LOT of use...it's rare that a day goes by that we don't watch at least a short clip!

Originally my fiance and I didn't budget for a videographer, but 1 month before the wedding I changed my mind. Let me tell you... it was ABSOLUTELY THE BEST decision of my life!!! (Aside from getting married, of course.) I had to convince my fiance that we needed to come up with additional money, and he was really against it since we were already spending a lot of money on our photographer. When it was all said and done, my husband told me "You were right!" We LOVED how the dvd turned out and it couldn't be any more perfect!! There was soooo many details that we missed on the day of the wedding and Dom captured ALL of it. I spent a whole year of my life planning every little detail of our wedding and the day goes by so fast. Now I actually have something to watch and remember all of those little details.Working with wedding vendors can be a pain in the butt... but Dom was the easiest person to work with!!! He was super flexible when we were trying to schedule appointments, he always responded to emails quickly, he was very professional, and on top of all that Dom is just a great guy! I was a little concerned because he works with a team of people that we didn't get to meet beforehand, but Dom's entire team was really professional, they were all dressed appropriately, friendly to our guests, and were not intrusive at all. On the day of the wedding Dom and his team showed up right on time and we hardly noticed them all day. In the final editing of the video, Dom went out of his way to include little details from our wedding day. Dom did an exceptional job!!! To be able to watch our video and hear the laughter, to hear our wedding vows, to hear my sister's heart-felt toast... each of those special moments is captured forever and I can feel the emotion every time I watch it. You can't capture the same emotion in a photograph. I HIGHLY recommend Dom... you will not be disappointed!!
GUEST




Dom and crew exceeded our expectations! They not only provided us a phenomenal wedding DVD, but also an exceptional experience all around. I spent a lot of time planning our wedding, and researched many different videographers. Bay Area VDO Production had the package, quality and creativity we were looking for at a competitive price. On the day of the wedding we hardely noticed their presence, yet, somehow, they caught every intimate moment. Dom was very attentive from my first inquiry all the way through final delivery. I would highly recommend VDO to anyone!
GUEST




What can I say about Dom and his team that hasn't already been admittedly it's hard! Coming from a production background, I was looking for someone who could live up to my standards of video creation. I not only wanted everything filmed in HD, but also wanted to be able to get a Blu-ray disk and had some special needs as well--all on budget, of course. Dom delivered this with pizazz! Even though he is not Indian, he captured all the important parts of my Hindu ceremony and divided up the chapters perfectly. His editing to music is superb, and I very much enjoyed the music video and fun lip-dub that he produced! My wedding was cold and wet (gotta love that November rain!), but Dom's video team worked like pros despite the crazy conditions. Bay area VDO made everything seem even more beautiful than I remember, and I would recommend them to anyone, even the nit-pickiest of brides. Trust me, just tell Dom how you want to remember your wedding day and he will make it happen. I appreciate the effort he put into understanding my culture and making a video that I will cherish for a lifetime. It was even covered in my favorite wedding site, Maharani Weddings- http://www.maharaniweddings.com/maharani/2011/03/music-video-by-bay-area-videography.html
GUEST




Why spend your money elsewhere? Just ask Dom to give you one example of his work. You will look no further! I especially like Dom's way of explaining and very thoroughly going through the work he's done. It confidently gives me the impression that everything on the wedding day will be alright! This is one thing I didn't want to skimp on because of the fact that I had enough things to worry about (aside from saying "I Do").
GUEST




Our wedding was a hindu ceremony with many details and Dom captured them all in a beautiful and elegant manner. The wedding area was in a very tight space, and we were amazed Dom was able to get all different angles, faraway, close ups, and normal. He also incorporated all my requested songs in the dvd with smooth transitions and finesse. There was a remix clip which captured the entire wedding, and a brief toast interviewing some of the guests. These were unexpected pleasant surprises. Thanks, Dom!He is very talented and very thorough. He was able to customize the dvd with my requests with excellent quality blu rays in beautiful packages. We had also been lazy throughout to collect all our dvds and he kept reminding us, to pick them up as had already paid for them. I highly recommend him. He is an expert with the camera and wonderful to work with.
GUEST




Dom's work is not just a video. It's a work of art, truly beautiful. It was more than my and husband's expectations. Even the sample video he sent in advance was professionally made. When I asked Dom to move up the delivery in time for my second reception, it arrived before the promised date, with a few days to spare. And the leather cases were an added touch. When I made the contract with Dom, I never saw his work. Being that it was a destination wedding for us and we live in the east coast, I had to put my faith in him that he will do as he promised. The whole thing was simply classy.

As we were planning our wedding, we never factored in a wedding videographer into our budget. However, after long debate with our families we decided that it was imperative to get video because truth be told, the day goes by so fast, that we will never have an opportunity to relive those moments in time. My wife and I tend to cross reference everything we purchase so when it came to finding a videographer, Bay Area VDO Production was actually one of many possible videographers we considered. After meeting Dom in person, we were both sold. His professionalism, promptness, and easy to get along with attitude made us both feel at ease in our decision. He also was happy to work within our budget. After our meeting, I remember telling my wife how happy and confident I feel with Dom and I think it was one of the better decisions we made in our wedding planning process. Weeks before the wedding, Dom would send us emails reminding us of song selections and always asking us if we had any other requests or questions. I appreciated the fact that he was on top of this and it made our lives a little easier without having to worry about something else for the big day. On the day of the wedding, Dom and his assistant showed up on time and began filming. They filmed the entire day and were not intrusive. Most of the time, we even forgot that they were there filming! After the honeymoon, Dom provided our wedding footage and music video on time as promised. The packaging was beautiful as well! Dom has an amazing talent and was able to edit the raw footage into a wonderful edited video for us. He used mostly music that we selected, and it all blended together so nicely! The music video montage was excellent as well. He knows how to draw the viewers into the moment as if they were living it. I can not stop watching our wedding music video. I feel like I am in my own movie and it's a great feeling. Dom definitely exceeded my expectations and we both love our wedding footage. Thank you Dom! I would highly recommend him to anyone planning on a wedding. I understand that most couples don't even consider a wedding videographer because its just something that often gets overlooked due to the importance placed on getting your wedding photographed. However, Dom stands out in the crowd with his ability to capture these priceless moments in time and years from now we will always relive those emotions as we watch our wedding footage and someday we can share that with our children. Thanks again Dom. Win and I are very happy with everything!!

First of all I am an Active Duty Service Member serving in San Diego. All of our family lives in the Bay Area. Dom and the rest of the Bay Area VDO Production crew was more than flexible in dealing with our situation of planning our wedding and coordinating with him from San Diego through out the whole process. They helped us coordinate everything from setting up meetings between him and our family for payments, music for our videos, times and places to shoot our video and general wedding tips. Having to coordinate with a client so far away, they were more than patient with us having to communicate through e-mail and voicemails due to my hectic and ever changing schedule due to the miltary. As difficult as it was, Dom made it as easy and as stress-free as possible. On our big day, Dom's staff executed capturing every moment flawlessly. At times, it was as if they weren't even there. The only time we really knew they were there was when one of their staff was actually helping my bride get ready and grabbing last minute things we forgot out of the house for the transition to the Church. We were so excited to see the finished products that we called and e-mailed Dom atleast 3 times a week waiting for the video. As annoying as we might have been, Dom was very patient and understanding; it actually seemed as if he was as excited about our video as we were. I can honestly say that they were able to capture every tear, smile, laugh and cry from our day. Watching what they had made for us gives us the opportuity to relive every moment from our Wedding. They have truely given us a timeless gift that we will cherish all the years of our Marriage.Bay Area VDO Production, THANK YOU. Because of you, we are able to enjoy and remind ourselves of how happy and how much we love each other.Geno & AprilWedding of May 22nd, 2010

Phenomenal video; a wonderful memory to keep with us for the rest of our lives. Great price, and REAL professional videographers at your service.
GUEST




Bay Area VDO Production did a great job at recording our wedding. We had VDO do our wedding in April, and the company is totally professional from start to finish. Great service is what we got from the first meeting to the last. Dom, the owner, really cares about his clients and the finished product that he provides. He is courteous, and responsive throughout the whole project, and we were pretty pleased with his service and the product he provides.On the wedding day, he really treated us well, and he did a great job. He and his crew were nice and came on time with no bad attitudes or overblown egos. They did their work in the background and really knew what they were doing. They tried to stay out of the way of the other vendors, and they take requests and special requests seriously. You get the feeling that they really want to give you quality service, attitude and product. We were very pleased with their performance at our wedding. They were one of our best vendors. The actual videos and disc that we received after the wedding were very good too. They provide a beautiful container for the compact discs and the disc labels looked really nice. The quality of the video and sound were great, and his editing was good. My wife and I were satisfied and pleased, and the results ranked up there with many of the other samples wedding videos we looked at before we selected VDO - his product was probably better than most. For the price and the type of equipment they are using, they did a really good job. As a realist, I knew I wasn't going to get a network TV broadcast or a feature film quality video just because Hollywood productions uses so much more complicated equipment, set-up, lighting, and audio. The price for something like that would be super expensive, and Dom did not provide that for us - at least at our pricepoint. I wasn't expecting that, but we did get a fantastic video recording of our wedding day that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. We're very happy with VDO's service and product.

WE LOVE DOM!!!!!!!!!!! I wasn't going to hire a videographer for our wedding but a lot of people said I should, what a memory...I began a search online, came across Bay Area VDO and was impressed with his site and the quality of his work. I called, he was so friendly, his prices were perfect so we met. I was so excited after our meeting and immediately booked him. He is very thorough and explains everything, plus he responds quickly to emails/calls. Day of he and his assistant were great. I've had so many people tell me they were all over the place and so subtle about it. As part of the contract he does a "music video" set to your song of choice that you can send out to all guests. It's a "five minute" compilation of quick highlights and it's perfection. i.e the timing of words in the song to certain parts of the day (sunlight coming in...). Everyone is going crazy about it, I cried the first two times I watched it. I don't know of another videographer who does this extra wonderful service, and my gosh is it spectacular. We are so happy with the final outcome, it is a beautiful video, we have a 3+ hour highlight video, all of the raw footage, and the music video. Plus the presentation of the dvd's is so cute! This is something we'll treasure since neither of us remember 99% of the day. He captured all of the speeches, the special and funny moments that we can relive. When we met with him to get the dvd's he showed us bits and pieces and he was literally everywhere I kept telling him "I didn't realize you were even there..." You will not be disappointed in Bay Area VDO. They are professionals, it's obvious they love their work, and want to please their clients. I am more than thrilled that we hired this company and will forever have a beautiful memory of our day thanks to Dom.

We were SO happy that we found VDO Production to record our wedding this past March. When we originally started looking, we nearly decided not to have a videographer because we couldn't find anyone affordable that wasn't cheezy...until we met Dom that is. Not only is Dom an absolute professional and a dream to work with, he's friendly, has a good sense of humor and is just an overall kind person.On our actual wedding day, I barely even noticed that we had videographers there (and neither did any of the guests). We've been to weddings where the camera is always in someone's face - Dom and his team blended in completely.After the wedding we asked Dom to have our video ready in just over a month since we were doing a mini-reception in another city. Dom worked until the very last second to get this done for us. Not only did the video look great, but Dom constantly kept us updated on the progress and would say things like: "...The video is almost done, but there is one part that I'm only 90% happy with, so I will keep working..." We both loved that he puts the quality of his work above all else.Having watched the video - we are more than happy. Dom really captured the spirit of the day and truly the video takes us both back. Dom also created a music video that we could show to those that don't want to watch the whole thing (that would be everyone except immediate family :) - and that turned out fantastic as well.Again, we can't say enough great things. Book Bay Area VDO Production immediately!!!

Dom and his crew were awesome. I was REALLY hesitant about getting a videographer for our wedding at first, but now Im so happy that I did!Not only did he do a great job in terms of service, but he was friendly, very professional, and totally let the photgraphers do their thing while he and his crew kinda hid in the background.Seriously, half the time, we had nooo idea that he was even THERE! sometimes we'd be just enjoying ourselves during the wedding and randomly we'd look down and there'd be a video guy taping me or my wife, totally hidden, and completely out of our way. That touch actually made for a GREAT finished product.Seriously, we read the reviews on Yelp, decided to go with his company, and called him, checked out his work, and paid him. Since then, we haven't worried about a thing, an he's done an AWESOME job!Thanks Dom! Our wedding will be remembered wonderfully cuz of you and your work!!
GUEST




My mother decided that we should have a videographer about 3 weeks before our wedding. Being that I live in Germany, I had to do the researching online. I came across bayarea VDO productions and watched about every video that was on the website. When I saw Dom's work, he just spoke to me... I knew that he was the one. Dom called me within a few hours of me submitting my request. After speaking to him, I had no doubt in my mind that we were going to get a very good product from him. All I can say is when you hire Dom for your wedding or event you are going to be treated like family. Dom, you and your crew are awesome! You are very talented and take pride in what you do. I will recommend you with a doubt. My wedding video is so beautiful and my husband and I are very pleased. Keep making couples happy! You ROCK! Thanks again
GUEST




Dom and his staff were very discreet at the wedding but they captured every moment. When I did catch a peek of them, they were always genuinely smiling and it seemed they were really happy for us.During the editing process, he spent a lot of time with me patiently helping to find the best song for the "music video." He gave his honest opinion about how most of my choices would affect the flow of the video, until I finally came up with the perfect song. I knew it was the right one when Dom simply said "this is good." He edited the footage to the song in a very moving way and was really invested in the outcome. Now I have a wonderful and concise wedding music video that I can send to all my friends, along with the longer and full versions of the wedding I can watch at home with my husband and family. Thank you very much Dom!- Eileen and Dima
GUEST




Dom is the best Videographer, and I highly recommend VDO Production!!! We are so happy that we chose VDO Production Dom to film our engagement party. Our video turned out amazing, more than I can ever imagine. Dom and his crew are the nicest, most helpful group I have ever worked with. He knew what I liked and what I wanted and I trusted him with everything. His work is amazing; it's a beautiful piece of art. He did an excellent job capturing the whole night with all of our special moments, are laughs, are tears, the celebration...... he captured it all. I watched our video over and over past 2 weeks and I can't get enough of it. It just amazes me every time I watched it. Not to mention, our 5 minute video, which we sent to all of our friends and family overseas or for our guest who couldn't attend. It was the whole night in 5 minute. Dom is truly the most amazing videographer I have came across. I did so much research and saw so many others work... AND NO ONE has come close to what Dom and his crew can do. Words can't express how thankful I am for choosing Dom, VDO production to film my special night.- Bethaina r.

"You did a fantastic job of capturing our wedding day! We genuinely appreciate your professionalism and all the time you invested to create the video, which came out beautifully. Your strong eye for detail captured so many moments and the music video was above and beyond exceptional. The wedding video is something that we, along with our family and friends, will treasure for many years to come." We give you our highest regards. Thank you!"Christina
GUEST




By FAR, the best decision that we made was having Dom as our videographer. Not only was he kind, energetic, polite, and a pure joy to work with, He treated us like family. What makes Dom so great is that he is passionate about his work. He not only captured the precious moments, but some how managed to capture the emotions and energy of out wedding. He puts countless hours into his videos–and boy oh boy does it show. The music video that he gave us for our wedding got over 100 reviews the first day! His work is respected by everyone who watches is.Dom is one of those rare people who gives you a 100% of his best work—regardless. It doesn’t matter if you go with his most expensive package or the less expensive. High or Low, he treats all of his clients with the same respect and the same equality.As most of you know going through the wedding process can be a stressful due to all of the decisions one has to make. Dom never once gave me a reason to doubt his abilitiles or his professionalism. He is talented beyond words, and I would highly recommend that you choose him as a videographer. I will recommend him to all of my friends, and anyone who his willing to listen. -Mia

I can't say enough how lucky we felt that we had Dom as our videographer - he lives up to his reviews, seriously. The quick reasons for getting Dom, because I could launch into a long story about how great he is and how thankful we feel:- He'll capture every single thing (I mean everything, lots of great footage) from your day and make it all look like a piece of art (you can tell he does this for a living because he loves it, and because he's REALLY good at it)- He is very professional, sincere, always up for being in touch and responding to any and all questions right away (I'd like to think I wasn't that bride...but I probably was, he was patient and super prompt in getting back to me about anything and everything I'd ask or want to know or want him to know), and unbelievably sweet.- You literally won't even realize he's at your wedding, in a good way - I was scared that if we got a videographer that the team and cameras would be in our face the whole time, but Dom was the opposite - he got everything and I forgot he was there. I didn't even notice him until the end of the night when he came to say goodbye.-He has a lot of experience - leading up to our wedding and the whole day of our wedding I could tell he knows what he's doing, from start to finish you don't need to worry about him or check in with him at all the day of, he is on it, really.- Just go for a consultation appointment and see, he has numerous examples of his work and he'll patiently (with no pressure) show you your options and what he can do for you.You'll want this dvd, trust me. A good friend convinced me that I'd regret not getting a video (I was tight on budget, so was considering just asking friends to take some video on their flip cameras), and I'm so glad she told me to get a videographer. There are things you'll get from your wedding video that your photographer (and even friends who take their own videos here and there) won't be able to capture. I feel like I have a hollywood movie version of my wedding, in a great way. Oh!, and you'll get a "music video" of your wedding (a summary of the best scenes, put to whatever music you pick) that you can email friends and family who couldn't be there (you can even upload it to facebook, etc.), and we were given dvds for our parents as well (in Blu-ray! So great).I remember reading these reviews before picking Dom and hoping they were right, hoping I'd get to be on this end now with a beautiful, amazing wedding video...I just feel like I have to let people know all of this, because there are enough things to worry about when planning a wedding and I remember what it felt like to worry and stress and not be sure who was good and reasonable - truly, you can trust the reviews when it comes to him, you won't regret picking Dom.
GUEST




Speechless. This was both my husband and my reaction when we saw our wedding DVD for the first time. It brought the whole day to life for us again and we were completely swept up in the moment again. We are beyond THRILLED with Dom's work! Like some of the other reviewers on here, we were skeptical about having a videographer but now realize that going with Dom was definitely one of the BEST decisions we made in the entire course of planning our wedding. Dom and his team are completely professional, punctual and true pros and what they do. In fact, we barely knew Dom was there with us on our wedding day but he captured every moment so beautifully and elegantly. I got more emotional watching our video than I did the entire day of my wedding! We will definitely be recommending Dom to our friends who are getting married (even if they don't think they want a videographer!) He is always willing to go the extra mile and his work shows! A+!!!!
GUEST




Hiring Dom was the best decision my husband and I ever made!! Initially, we decided not to hire a videographer because most of the wedding videos we saw were so cheesy. We just couldn't pay so much money for such crappy work. Anyway, two months before our wedding, we searched for videographers again because we didn't want to regret the decision of not getting our wedding day documented. During our search, there were moments where we almost gave in and wanted to just hire someone who's work we didn't even really care for just to get it over with!! Luckily, I found Dom on google! I watched his music videos on Vimeo and totally fell in love with his work! I called him and left a message and within a minute, he called me back! I spoke with him on the phone and liked him already! After my husband and I saw longer versions of Dom's work during our first meeting, we hired him on the spot! We got the 3 camera package at such a reasonable price! On the day of our wedding, he arrived early and was very professional! He gave us our wedding video as scheduled and I teared when my husband and I first watched our music video! He definitely told the story of our wedding day and captured all the special moments. Most importantly, our wedding video was not at all corny!! I have watched it so many times already! I would highly recommend Dom! Not only are his prices reasonable, you can't even compare his work to those videographers who charge an arm and a leg for a crappy wedding video. Dom is definitely one of the best you'll find in his field, plus he's such a sweet person!!- Pam & Tien




I had a high season wedding in 2009 but I was so lucky by accidentally to see Bay Area Vdo Production/Dom on Projectwedding.com so we started meeting Dom, finally hired him our wedding day.
The VDO came out just so GREAT and LOVE. All my friends say I m look like super Model on project runway. Scott is my husband look so AMAZZZZZZING.
Speak highly of him.. he is the best




Booking with Dom for our videography was such a great idea! We didn't originally plan for video coverage in our wedding budget, but after getting some wise advice, I looked into an affordable videographer that doesn't compromise on quality. Dom has a lot of experience capturing weddings, as apparent by his large collection of wedding dvds (I would have probably spent hours browsing through them if my now husband wasn't with me). I love how involved he gets in the entire feel of the video footage. He looked for ways to make our video unique and true to our style as a couple, giving us options on various elements on design. It's those extra little touches that make your wedding video feel that much more special.
Dom is super friendly and teamed up nicely with our photographers to capture the wedding. His flexibility and attitude really made him one of our favorite vendors. I highly recommend Dom and his work. His prices are more than reasonable for someone who is so experienced. I'd say that we splurged a little by booking a videographer (since we didn't originally include it in the budget), but booking Dom was definitely more of a save than a splurge.




Nice to work with, understanding, and very helpful.
The Vdo came out just love it... play again and again.
GUEST




My husband and I knew we wanted a videographer (one of those things you'll regret not having), but didn't want to pay through the nose for yet another wedding expense. Somehow the Yelp gods sent us Dom, who did an awesome job. Extremely professional and reasonable, he was unobtrusive on the day-of and very, very responsive to our needs. We must have watched his "signature" music video of our wedding about a hundred times!
GUEST




Dom Tanet G. did an amazing job. The finished wedding video and our special music video was breathtaking. Reliving the moment through the music video nearly brought tears to my eyes, as a man that's hard but hey it was my wedding day! I'm more than satisfied with his professionalism and quality of work. Dom has done everything and more of our expectations. Working with Dom has been a remarkable and satisfying experience. His work is barnone, and the quality of his work speaks for itself--so check it out. I highly recommend Dom for any work especially special events...a wedding of course.THANKS DOM YOU'RE THE GREATEST!!
GUEST




My wife and I have had the pleasure of working with Dom on 3 major occasions. On all 3 occasions his work was absolutely outstanding. This past August 9rh, he and his assistance did the video for our wedding. Having rented the entire Golden Gate Club in the Presidio, and holding the service and reception in this large building, with multiple rooms and outdoor locations was a challenge to say the least. Bay Area VDO Produciton were the consummate professionals, doing all their work so well that they were " almost invisible " to the event , but tat the same time captured everything that was happening with 3 cameras. From start to finish, the wedding and reception lasted for almost 8 hours. When we met with Dom several weeks later, I was awe struck by the quality of the work , as well as t he most professional editing. There was so much outstanding footage, that rather that the 2 hours video, he had made a 4 hours video. He poured his heart and mind into making out marriage video by far much better than I could have ever imagined . I cannot express how thankful that my bride and I are to have chosen Dom and VDO to work with us. David & Janet Jeffrey.

Hiring Bay Area VDO Production by Dom Guntavong and team is/was one of the best decisions we've made as far as our wedding vendors were concerned! From the very start, Dom has been the model professional. One of Dom's enduring qualities as a professional videographer is his ability to treat his clients like people - with integrity and honesty. He does what he says he'll do and isn't one of those vendors that once he gets the deposit, the customer service goes down the drain. Also, Dom understands the photographer-videographer relationship and will make sure he does not step on your photographer's toes. This is really important to consider, since no one likes to have their videographer in their wedding photos!On the day of our wedding, Dom and his team were quite inconspicuous. It was like he was never there, yet he was able to capture all the moments of our special day. When we finally viewed the finished product, we were so amazed because he was able to get this one moment where I told my bride "I love you" and another moment where I kissed my bride and asked for another kiss. This is HUGE because with about 9 hours of raw footage to edit and review, he was able to isolate those moments and put them in the finished product!With such high quality, you would expect to pay a huge amount for it, but with Dom, you simply can't beat his pricing. We got an AWESOME deal with the custom package we purchased. With other videographers, they charged $1500-$2000 more for the same package. Also, with Dom's satisfaction policy (you don't pay the balance due unless you're satisfied with the finished product) it is simply unheard of! And yes, he sticks by that! I'll be honest, there was a slight error on our wedding video, and when we told Dom about it, he apologized and promptly fixed it. Not once did he ever try to collect on the balance due - he acknowledged his mistake, fixed it promptly, and re-delivered the finished product during the timeframe he promised. He made sure we were happy with everything before asking for final payment. Now that's customer service/satisfaction!We highly recommend Bay Area VDO Production!!! With Dom, you get professionalism, integrity, quality, value, and customer service/satisfaction. He is simply the best at what he does!Jeff & Marianne

My husband and I hired Dom to be our videographer for our wedding this past July. He did an amazing job! We are extremely pleased with his professionalism and creativity. It was not difficult to hire him, he responded very quickly to our initial emails and answered all of our questions and concerns. He had everything we were looking for: (1) creativity (2) price is right (3) culturally aware of our traditions (4) very easy to work with.Dom was able to capture ?the moments.? If you are bride or groom, you?ll understand what I am saying, it?s a LONG day, so much that you are overwhelmed and honestly you can?t remember EVERYTHING that happened that day. To be able to watch the video and relive the moments is amazing. The video was so beautiful it truly capture the special moments. I found myself saying out loud ?I can?t believe he caught that!?, ?Oh my God? ?Awww!? etc, etc. I absolutely LOVE my wedding video and honestly I don?t think a lot of people can truly say that.Dom helped us throughout the pre-production and post-production such as meeting with us face to face, showing us different DVD menu templates and sending email reminders. Dom and his assistants were very professional and friendly! Dom truly cares for the product. For instance, for our wedding music video we choose an upbeat song but he suggested that we go with our first dance song with was a song slow. We didn?t question him because we have total trust in his opinion and knowledge. It turns out that the new song and footage went hand in hand?way better than the other song would have turned out.If you want memories to last a lifetime especially an important event as a wedding?call Dom.Rosa and Jeff




My mom (3 weeks before the wedding): "You know, having the videographer is going to be very special"
Me: "Mom, we talked about this 55 times, we do not want a videographer and aren't planning to have one. Why haven't you accepted this fact yet?"
My mom: "What, no video person? Why not? I didn't know this. Let me talk to your father"
Me (to my fiancé): "Please don't kill me but my mother is pushing for the videographer again"
My fiancé: Insert every expletive imaginable.
Me: God help me.
Okay, so he might not be on the same playing field as God, but Dom from Bay Area VDO production definitely came through clutch. As I stated before, it was never our intention to get a videographer. It was three weeks before the wedding and I was a fragile and broken groom and had no more fight in me. My mother wanted a videographer, my fiancé wanted to kill me, and I just wanted to elope. Okay, maybe it wasn't that bad but you get the picture.
I contacted a bunch of videographers and Dom was prompt and professional in response. He understood my predicament and given the quick turnaround, was able to accommodate our schedule and budget. Keep in mind that we were having two (yes two) wedding ceremonies - a Hindu ceremony on Friday night the American version on Saturday. We were afraid that having a videographer would be intrusive and really over the top. Dom was very flexible in his approach and made me feel it as ease. He was on top of everything and was punctual and extremely professional. His team consisted of multiple HD cameramen, an edited DVD, plus an online two minute synopsis.
He was able to put me an ease after a few short conversations. Basically, it came down me to realizing that Dom knew best and that we were in good hands. The package we received from Dom was far less than his competitors in price but not in product.
In retrospect (and in most cases), I'm glad I listened to my mother. Chances are we are going to watch the DVDs many times over the next two months as our family and friends are obligated by association to watch it with us. We probably won't touch the videos again for a long time but I'm glad to know that I have this eternal keepsake of our ceremonies (trust me, I realize how cheesy that sounds). I don't know if this applies to everyone that gets married but the events were/are an entire blur (and this has nothing to do with the booze) and went by so quickly. I am eternally grateful that I can relive these moments (aka laugh at ourselves) and truly appreciate the events as they happened.
Thanks again Dom.

Dom is excellent! He is the choice for wedding videography!We planned to interview several videographers and Dom was out first and only. From the first meeting to the wedding videography to the post production, we were confident he would get it done. With all the wedding planning stress, we did not have to worry ourselves with videography because we were fully confidence that he could do it and he delivered. Dom and his team are extremely professional, and know where they need to be to capture the shots for our banquet. The video he produced for us is truely special and unqiue, and captured everything we wanted. Thanks for everything Dom.

I need to say Thank you so much to Bay Area Wedding Videography. my Vdo came out is so perfect what I want and all of my family watched it again and again. I speak highly of Dom/Bay Area Wedding VdoNancy




Everyone's wedding is supposed to be a fairy tale. Often times people's memories will remind them of the little things that might have been different than they planned. When we chose to work with Bay Area Video Production, I knew from the beginning our wedding would be captured through the love and compassion that Bay Area Video possess. The wedding was an amazing experience working with Dom and perhaps the best part was, it felt like we had known them our whole lives. They smiled with us, laughed with us and captured the perfect memories of our entire day. It was amazing to work with such a talented team of professionals as well as see the final product. Dom put so much effort and love into the video that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. I recommended him to EVERYONE I know because everyone should have the gift of love we received from our video! My parents were espcially grateful for the reasonable pricing and options Dom gave them! We love you- Gianna and Bobby Summer

We've had the honor of working with Dom and the staffof Bay Area VDO production recently for our wedding.We are very impressed with our wedding video. It ismuch better than we had expected. He did a great jobat capturing the sights and sounds of our wedding day.On top of that, the video montage that he orchestratedis absolutely fabulous. It displayed the essences ofour special day in a very emotional collection.From the initial meeting with Dom, we were both veryexcited to work with him. He is not only professional,but utterly easy to talk to. He listened intensely aswe described what our wishes are. He assured us thathe was the right person for the job, and he wasindeed.On the day off, he was punctual and had everythingsetup with time to spare. Dom and his staff were neverin the way, and did a great job of blending in. Therewere times that I totally forgot that they were there.This is not an easy feat, since we had three differentlocation for our wedding; Villa Montalvo, parentshouse, and ABC Seafood Restaurant in Foster City.Dom delivered the finished product to us in thetimeframe that he had promised. We were speechlessafter viewing the video. It was more than we expectedby ten folds. It was very nicely edited and packaged.We couldn't ask for anything better.We would highly recommended Dom and Bay Area VDOproduction. They are fantastic! Two thumbs high up!

"How often does one get married? Well for me, I had never been before nor had I gone through the joys and pains of planning for a wedding...Budget was a highly motivating factor as I went looking for a videographer...and when I started to get disappointed that I would have to sacrifice quality for an affordable videographer who really knew how to capture the big day, imagine my delight when I came across http://BayAreaVDOProdu......I googled it and I took a chance, and boy, did I strike gold!! He is amazing in his ability to put together a wedding montage and that was one of my main criterion for finding a good videographer... Yes, making a 2 hour DVD of a wedding day is great, but come on, let's face it, the family and friends really just want to see a short glimpse of the whole day to be wow'd... He just finished our wedding montage (roughly 4.5 minutes playing to our first dance song), and my husband and I could not have been happier! It seriously looks like the quality of those videos that costed twice as much when I went surfing online for different videographers...truthfully, I believe he underprices by quite a bit, but that's good for me and anyone who catches him soon!! He is worth a great deal more than he charges for...great attention to detail, he and his assistant were non-invasive and super polite throughout the whole day, and so very excellent at editing (which is really the most important thing!)... if you need a talented visionary to express your big day in all its glory on film, this is the company to do it for you!!

"The video is absolutely amazing, everyone loves it and they all have wonderful things to say about you and your talent. You captured so many rare moments and things that I didn’t even realize were going on. I wouldn’t change a single thing...and in the exact words of my husband, 'If I told him exactly what to tape at the wedding, it wouldn’t even be 50% of what he captured, he is amazing' "
-Saba Ammari




This music video is the most beautiful wedding video I have ever seen, of course!...it is a beautiful reminder of the one most special times in our lives ...we keep on showing our wedding video to our friends and family. Everybody was so impressed.

I have been a wedding photographer for many years and I have never wanted to endorse a videographer until I with Dom of BayAreaVDO. We met years ago when I was photographing a wedding at a large Catholic Church. He was the videographer that day. I was immediately impressed by what I saw. He and his crew were appropriately dressed,polite,unobtrusive,fun and extremely professional. He works well with other vendors. His work can only be described as "pure art" . He has the perfect combination of artistic and technical skills to make your video a timeless family treasure. Dom puts his heart and soul into his videos and it really shows.
