Silver Seas Photo & Film -

Chris Brown

Ryan and the team at Silver Seas did an impeccable job with our wedding photos. We bundled engagement photography, wedding photography, and cinematography. Ryan scheduled a helpful phone call prior to our engagement photo shoot to get to know a bit more about each other and his process. It was insightful and gave us confidence that we had made an excellent decision as we were hoping for someone that could match our dark taste. When we met up to do the shoot, we clicked instantly and he truly understood the esthetic we wanted to achieve. The engagement photos came out perfect. Next was the wedding shoot. His team came to the house that we got ready at to get some shots of the process before the wedding itself. Everyone on his team was excellent to work with and had good communication. Preparing for an ordeal such as getting married comes with a lot of stresses, of course, but neither my wife nor myself felt that the Silver Seas team added to that. They got the job done and allowed us to have freedom on the big day. I did not feel like they were in the way or taking focus off of the memories we were creating. The actual wedding and reception was fantastic. They accomplished every type of photo we wanted and every group shot we had hoped for. It was a beautiful day that we are beyond grateful to have such wonderful photographs of as well as the film of the ceremony and several other pieces from the day. We chose to order a lovely leather bound book to commemorate the occasion. Of course, they did a fantastic job on that as well. Thank you, Ryan and thank you to the whole team at Silver Seas (photographers, videographers, and editors).

Ryan and his team are absolutely amazing! They shot a friend's wedding years ago and I was so impressed with their work that when my partner and I got engaged we went straight to them when it was time to book a photographer/videographer. From the beginning, Ryan was incredibly enthusiastic, communicative and accommodating with our busy schedules. He kindly answered all of our questions during our video calls and made our engagement shoot super fun. It was important to us that we had both photos and video of our wedding day and we are so grateful for all of the moments the team captured! We received our teaser video and pictures shortly after the wedding day, and were blown away by the full length video. Throughout our wedding day the team was incredibly professional, flexibly pivoted when we had to change our picture schedule at the last minute, and frequently offered kind and supportive words to us and our wedding party - so lovely to have as part of our crew! Wedding planning can be overwhelming, but choosing Silver Seas to capture this life event for us brought us calm confidence because we knew we were in good hands. Cannot recommend this team enough!

A friend of mine had worked with Silver Seas for their wedding and their photos were unbelievably stunning! It made picking Silver Seas as our photographers a no brainer! Communication was great throughout the entire process which I really appreciated. We first met Ryan over a video call to go over introductions and expectations and it was great to finally meet in person for our Engagement Photoshoot. Ryan is super friendly and easy to talk to, my partner and I are a little awkward in front of the camera but Ryan's techniques really helped and put us at ease. We actually had a lot of fun during on Engagement shoot and was good practice for our big day! We also loved how our wedding photos turned out and I am so impressed how patient and professional Ryan and his assistant were, especially with handling big families. We keep looking back at all our photos in awe and are so glad to have these special moments captured by them, would highly recommend working with Silver Seas! We love them!

Ryan and team truly captured the magic of our wedding. It was an absolute delight working with them as we navigated the challenges of a pandemic-era wedding - Ryan was patient, communicative, thoughtful, and prompt. We adore our highlight video showcasing the special moments and love having access to our full raw footage. We highly recommend Ryan and team for your wedding or other special events! Thank you again!

Thanks to Silver Seas for our amazing wedding photos and video!!! The outcome is incredibly beautiful that I can hardly believe that it’s something that happened to me. Our highlight video took my breath away and made me cry! This not only surpassed our expectations, but also our family and friends were impressed that they said that this was the most beautiful wedding video they have ever seen. Ryan was super easy to work with, and even though we have no experience in front of the camera he helped us to feel comfortable and relaxed, and the result was truly amazing! My husband and I are so happy that we chose Silver Seas to capture our wedding day, and couldn’t give a higher recommendation.

From the moment we contacted Silver Seas, they were incredibly professional and took great care to understand our goals and help craft a photoshoot that would end up being more than we could have ever hoped for. Not only did Ryan scout our location in Big Sur ahead of time, lining up a selection of incredible vistas that exceeded our expectations, but they were incredibly flexible, adapting to last-minute changes that inevitably happen even with a small wedding.

The post-ceremony, sunset photo session was easily the highlight of our wedding day. Racing a setting sun through the landscape of Big Sur with Ryan and his team, capturing every last ray of light is a memory Toni & I will always cherish.

Thank you!!!!

Here at Mountain House Estate wedding venue, I’m always amazed at what new and innovative way this team finds to create a one of a kind special photo for the couple.
