Wedding couple on the bluff in La Jolla, San Diego

La Jolla, Fallbrook, North County, San Diego

SAN DIEGO WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHER

Too many weddings to count in San Diego county and we still drive the PCH with the windows down. Vows on the bluff at Scripps Seaside with the Pacific going silver behind them, the pink stairs at La Valencia, a courtyard ceremony at The Guild, long light over the Fallbrook groves, Escondido, Alpine, Julian, the marine layer lifting just in time and everybody acting like they planned it that way. San Diego is our California home. We know every road.

"We booked Sun Beat Films for our San Diego wedding in September 2025, and we are so glad we did. Initially, we were unsure if we even wanted a videographer… Choosing to have a videographer ended up being one of the best decisions we made."

SAN DIEGO WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHY FAQ'S

HAVE YOU FILMED AT OUR VENUE?

Probably. We've shot Scripps Seaside Forum three times, La Valencia, Botanica in Oceanside, Tivoli in Fallbrook and the San Diego Botanic Garden twice each, plus The Guild, The Pearl, the Lafayette, St. Francis Chapel, Flora in Golden Hill, The Thursday Room in Ocean Beach, the La Jolla Woman's Club, Lomas Santa Fe, the Grand Tradition, Monserate, Bonsall House, Leo Carrillo Ranch, The Woodshed, Rancho Guejito, the Safari Park, Red Hawk Ranch, Sacred Mountain in Julian, a private home in La Jolla and a three-day wedding in Rancho Santa Fe. Thirty San Diego weddings across twenty-three venues — if yours isn't on the list, we've probably shot down the road from it. Ask.

ARE YOU LOCAL TO SAN DIEGO?

Yes. Our California crew is based in San Diego, so this is home turf, not a destination — your wedding isn't waiting on a flight from Hawaii.

If there's any mileage, it's quoted in your proposal before you sign, so nothing turns up on the final invoice you haven't already seen.

CAN YOU WORK WITH OUR PHOTOGRAPHER?

All the time, and couples notice. One couple's guests assumed our filmmaker and their photographer worked for the same company. We'd rather make your photographer's day easier than fight them for the same angle.

WHAT DOES A SAN DIEGO WEDDING FILM COST?

Weddings start at $5,000 and elopements at $3,500. Price scales with coverage, film length and whether you want a second filmmaker. Every package includes a consultation, recorded ceremony and speech audio, custom hand-drawn titles, online hosting, and a hard drive with every frame of raw footage.

TELL US ABOUT YOUR SAN DIEGO DATE

Send the venue, the date and a little about the two of you. We'll come back with a quote and whether we're free.

Thirty San Diego Weddings

Scripps Seaside three times, La Valencia, Botanica, Tivoli and the Botanic Garden twice each. Our California crew lives here.

No Associate Shooters

Everyone who shows up is someone we trained ourselves and have worked alongside for years. Our couples name them in their reviews.

Fun, Upbeat Edits

Vintage Super 8 and 16mm alongside cinema cameras and aerials.

Every Frame on a Drive

Not an upgrade — the whole day, ceremony and speeches included, on a hard drive that's yours.
