The best decision we made on our wedding day! Nick and Christian were absolutely incredible. Fun, easy going, and literally camped out to get the sunrise on our wedding day. Cannot...
say enough good things about them. 14/10 recommend!
Nick and his team were AMAZING. Watching the video he created for our wedding day made me want to get married all over again! He understood the vibes we wanted in our video and did...
an amazing job with communication. I have recommended him to so many people!
Krystal and Nick were enjoyable and easy to work with right from the beginning! Even in the uncertainty of how our day would look because of COVID-19, they were supportive, hopeful...
, and really down for anything to help us make our day happen! It felt great to have such a steady support system in a vendor.
They captured our day so perfectly! Any time we, our family and our friends who were guests at the wedding watch our video, we all feel the same emotions we felt on the day of. Between Seafarer Films and our photographer, there isn't one second of our that wasn't captured.
On the day of the wedding, it really felt like they were two great friends who also happened to be incredible videographers. They enjoyed the day with us and they really blended into our wedding in such a natural way and we never felt like we were being filmed. Everything they captured was authentic and organic.
There are so many amazing things to say about Nick and Krystal! You won't regret hiring them! In fact, you'll probably rave about them to everyone you know!
I don't even know where to start about how amazing Seafarer Films is to work with (previously known as Rolling Tide Films). After seeing other films Dan and Seafarer created, I fe...
ll in love with their unique production. Dan and Nick were incredible to work with on the day of our wedding. They were extremely efficient, professional, and kind. They allowed our day to flow naturally without anything feeling forced or awkward and captured our entire day flawlessly. It was SO fun working with them and having them be apart of our team. You work closely with your videographer and photographer on your wedding day and it was so great to have amazing, uplifting, positive people next to you.
Now to the finished product, WOW! Our video far exceeded my expectations and is better than any video I could have imagined. I love the artistic and upbeat vibe to our video. It captures the emotions of the day from start to finish and allows me to relive all the feels of my wedding day. I was on the fence about hiring a videographer and I am beyond glad I did. It is worth making room in your budget. The day goes by so fast and its fun to look back and really soak it all in after the day is over. I can not say enough good things about Seafarer Films. The quality of their work is outstanding and Dan and his crew are just down to earth great people and that is exactly what you want to be surrounded by on the biggest day of your life!
Dan was great to work with! We met him through our photographer since they were collaborating, and since we trusted our photographer we knew we’d trust the videographer as well. Hi...
s style and editing is different and very unique compared to what we’ve usually seen in other wedding videos. We loved our highlight video! The editing was amazing and we loved the moments he was able to capture. We enjoyed watching the video over and over again and reliving our special day! Our highlight video: https://vimeo.com/304349926
You will not regret hiring down as a videographer. His professionalism and attention to detail are second to none. Any and all requests were taking care of professionally. I high...
ly recommend him for your wedding.
Dan put together the most amazing video of our wedding in Laguna. Even with very little direction from us, he was able to capture the event perfectly. He got every moment and every...
attendee at their best. I will refer Dan and Rolling Tide to anyone I know looking for a videographer for their wedding or special event.
Dan was a great photographer and we are really glad we chose him for our wedding! When planning our wedding, we knew we wanted both photography and videography for our special day...
. We did our research, but most of the packages were way over our budget. It was actually my friend who found Dan’s ad and we contacted him. Dan was very easy to communicate with and professional throughout the process. Before the wedding he made sure to talk to us so he’d understand the types of shots we wanted at our wedding. On the wedding day, his videographer and he were at the venue on time. They promised to give us the photos and video in three weeks after the wedding and Dan emailed us all the photos/videos in 2.5 weeks.
And most importantly, the photos are videos are absolutely beautiful! I’ve already look through the photos more than 100 times (it’s only been a week since I received the photos) and still cannot get enough of them!! Dan made me and my husband look so beautiful in the photos, I am so excited to frame them. The videographer and Dan made sure all the guests were in the photos, and everyone’s smiles are well captured in all the photos. Dan also took a few solo shots of my dad looking at the wedding arch right after the ceremony was set up. It was so meaningful to me, because I remember seeing my dad looking at the wedding arch through the bedroom window while I was getting ready. Dan’s photos take me back to each and every moment of our special day.
Amazing time. Amazing photography/videography. Totally recommend! I would hire him again if I had a wedding all over again!
We absolutely LOVED working with Rolling Tide! Dan was so fun and creative, it felt like we had known him forever! Our videos are amazing and we have watched them over and over. Al...
l of our friends and family have said it’s one of the coolest wedding videos they have seen- their style of filming and editing is unlike any other! And they captured some of the most memorable and special moments, something we will cherish over and over. Every time we watch it we feel like we are experiencing our wedding day all over again, and it’s the best feeling :) thank you Rolling Tide!!
A true professional and artist. Thank you for filming our big day!
Can't thank you enough Dan for your work. You were so rad to have with us - our family, friends all loved you and your positive attitude. It was great to have a vendor that wasn't ...

speaking with Dan initially for just 10 minutes on the phone, I knew he was the videographer for us. His passion for the art and experience shows. He told us this is not just a job or paycheck for him but a passion, and I believe it. Hire Dan! I promise you won't regret it.
Don't waste your time calling anyone else if youre in Southern California. I already did the hard work for you. I talked to over 10 video companies, none impressed me the way Rolli...

good work since we were from out of town and didn't know anyone there. But we were so lucky we found them! They worked with our budget, were very professional and punctual, and produced incredible work for our daughter and family. We can't recommend them enough.
Dan did a ABSOLUTELY AMAZING job with our wedding filming! There was tons of traffic going into dtla where our venue was the day of our wedding and we were worried that vendors wou...
ld be late. We arrived to find Dan already shooting! He was on top of it all, never stressed or worried, and filmed all the key parts. I honestly don't know how he got half the shots he did, he has an eye for this for sure. He was very professional, and our bridal party and guests loved him. I DEFINITELY recommend Dan for anyone's filming needs!!!
Great all around. If you want a video for your wedding but dont want the usual cheesy ones you see out there, then call Dan. Absolutely incredible work, I'm in the art field and kn...
ow how to spot good work. Call them you wont regret it.
I can't say enough good things about Dan & Nick. On our wedding day, I had so much going on and some issues with other vendors that I had no time to direct him (we didn't have a co...
ordinator). But without any direction from me, they just started shooting and did an incredible job! When people ask to see our wedding photos, we don't even show them. We show them our videos and they absolutely love them! They were so responsive and helpful, shot everything, and gave us a video that would last forever! I couldnt recommend them enough!
