We hella love LA!
Los Angeles County is a gorgeous place for wedding videography. As wedding filmmakers, we appreciate the variety of locations, from beach photography locations to modern and urban cinematography locations. If you head near the coast, you can find beautiful Los Angeles county beaches in Santa Monica, Redondo Beach, Hermosa Beach, Manhattan Beach, and Malibu. Los Angeles is truly one of the best places for wedding videography, with gorgeous sunsets and great weather. We are a boutique wedding cinema company, madly in love with what we do. We would love to capture your big day - no matter where it takes us.
MY NAME IS SASCHA, AND BEHIND LOUD CINEMATOGRAPHY, THERE IS ONLY ME. IN AN INDUSTRY OF LARGE PRODUCTION TEAMS AND FORMULAIC EDITS, I CHOOSE A DIFFERENT PATH: THE HANDCRAFTED APPROACH. I DON'T JUST "COVER" A WEDDING; I DOCUMENT A FEELING. WHETHER IT’S THE QUIET DAWN OVER THE BÜRGENSTOCK RESORT OR THE HIGH-ENERGY PULSE OF A CELEBRATION AT THE GSTAAD PALACE, MY GOAL IS TO REMAIN A DISCREET PARTICIPANT.
I BELIEVE THE BEST MOMENTS HAPPEN WHEN YOU FORGET THE CAMERA IS THERE.
WHY LOUD?
BECAUSE "LOUD" ISN'T ABOUT VOLUME—IT’S ABOUT THE RESONANCE OF A STORY. I COMBINE A CINEMATIC DOCUMENTARY EYE WITH A DEEP RESPECT FOR THE NATURAL FLOW OF YOUR DAY. NO FORCED POSES, NO "REPEAT FOR THE CAMERA." JUST RAW, HONEST, AND ARTFULLY TOLD CINEMA. FROM THE FIRST LIGHT TO THE FINAL DANCE, I AM THERE AS AN "EARLY BIRD" AND A STORYTELLER, ENSURING THAT YOUR FILM IS AS UNIQUE AS THE ALPINE LANDSCAPE IT'S SET IN.

Cinematic coverage, built around LA's venues, light, and logistics.
Cinematic coverage, built around L.A.'s geography, light, and logistics.
Weddings in Los Angeles come with their own practical realities — a sprawling city where venues can be an hour apart, coastal marine layer that burns off (or doesn't) by mid-morning, and a light quality that shifts dramatically between the coast, the hills, and downtown. Every package we offer is structured around those specifics, not a one-size-fits-all wedding-day template.
On the day. Coverage typically starts with getting-ready moments — at a hotel, a private home, or on-site — and continues through the ceremony, portraits, and reception. Because L.A.'s golden hour is a genuine asset here, we plan portrait and cocktail-hour timing around it specifically, and stay in close contact with your planner so the schedule can flex if coastal fog is slow to clear or traffic shifts vendor arrival times.
Landscape and skyline footage. From the Pacific coastline and Malibu's cliffs to the downtown skyline and the hills above Hollywood, our drone and landscape coverage is built to capture the specific character of your venue rather than a stock L.A. postcard. All drone filming is carried out with the appropriate permits for the venue, public land, or municipality, arranged in advance so there's no uncertainty on the day.
Sound and story. Vows, toasts, and speeches are captured with dedicated audio equipment rather than relying on camera mics — especially important at outdoor coastal or garden venues where wind and ambient noise are common. In the edit, footage is graded to reflect the actual light of your venue — warm golden-hour tones in the hills, cooler coastal light in Malibu, the specific glow of a downtown skyline at dusk — rather than a flattened, generic look, and cut with pacing and music that matches your day's specific energy.
Delivery. Within 4–8 weeks, you'll receive a cinematic highlight film (typically 5-6 minutes) and a separate full-length edit of your ceremony and speeches (depending on the package), delivered via a private online gallery.

Your Questions, Answered

Cinema is one of the best ways to preserve and document your wedding day. It is true that a picture is worth thousand words, but a wedding film is worth 1000 pics. What is most important: A series of moving images of yourselves, your friends and your family, which create a memory for years to come that can never be replaced by photography. My cinematography is known for its power to tell the beautiful emotional truth of your story. Your most heartfelt not-to-be missed moments, the voices, the movement, the laughter and tears of joy will all be expertly edited to tell your most inspiring and unique love story. More than a keepsake, it’s emotion in motion. It is a treasure that is a family heirloom. You will be able to hand down your wedding film to your children and even grandchildren and show them how you celebrated your day of love.

A lot of companies sub-contract their shooting and editing. But when you hire Loud Cinematography, you get Loud Cinematography.

Of course, I believe there are many reasons to consider me for your wedding, but in a nutshell I am a filmmaker who loves people and loves what I do! I catch precious moments with a very unique style. Ultimately I believe great imagery speaks for itself but what makes me different is my ability to portray each couples story, unique to them.
-
Go to the contact side and write me a short note and I'll come trough.
-
My goal is to make your experience with me as easy and stress free as possible; therefore the little I do require of you is intended to make working with me enjoyable and easy for you. Logistically, all I need from you is a detailed event timeline at least one week prior to the event. Most importantly I need your trust in me as filmmaker and friend.
-
I am a completely self-contained filmmaker. I bring everything that I need. This includes cameras, quadrocopter, lights, audio, etc. The only thing I can’t bring with me is electricity. I will need at least one electrical outlet designated for me in all locations of your event.
-
Much of the story occurs in the moments of the early morning preparations. I arrive as everything is getting started. This is when I am able to capture footage of the bride and groom preps as well as the ceremony site prep. I leave the event once the story has been captured, which usually is shortly after open dancing has begun.
-
The essence of my films is to capture moments as organically as possible. I never ask a couple to say certain things into the camera, or do certain actions; I want their film to reflect them naturally. However, if lighting or background is not conducive to an optimal finished product, especially during preps, I will ask if we can move to a different part of the room or facility to make sure we capture the moments in the best way possible. Ultimately, it is all about you being you!
-
Yes. Subject to the legal restrictions I can fly a fully equipped drone (drone flying license & certification from LBA (A1/ A3 open sub category)).
-
Yes, I feel a couple’s story is incomplete without both preps.
-
Again, my biggest concern is that we create a film that you absolutely love, that is not a cookie cutter film, but rather created custom for each couple. In order to do this, it takes time; the season and workload are also factors that come into play. But on average the film(s) takes about 6 to 12 weeks to get back to you.
-
I'll always welcome your suggestions if you have any and will always try to work with your ideas. But .. to use music in a wedding film it must however be licensed. I will select most of my soundtracks from platforms like musicbed.com based on the feeling I get during the edit. It's a pretty time consuming process and one that needs to be perfect in order to compliment the look and feel of the final film.
-
Yes (dependent on lenght of film & the hours I am with you). All packages include a minumum of 8 hours to ensure necessary coverage. If it seems as though you will need more coverage, I will simply ask you what events you would like me to stay and cover, how much longer you would like me to stay or you simply choose the next bigger package. For more detailed and specific information just drop me a line and I'll serve with a price table.
-
In a nutshell: Yes. Even though I only capture video sequences on your big day, I can provide you (once the film is produced) with "film grabs" in the end (this is an extra you can add).
-
Yes, absolutely! This is something I greatly pride myself in. I do not see weddings as a competition of shots, instead I focus on the couple and their day. In order to make sure I am on the same track as a photographer,
I email the photographer a week before the wedding to introduce myself and let them know I want to work together as a team. My desire is to not only produce great films, but to enhance the overall experience. -
The smallest possible package includes just a Highlight Film (length of one song). From there you can add multiple possibilities like a main feature (which lasts dependent on the package you book (either 10-14 minutes, or 15-20 minutes)), a teaser, aerial coverage, raws etc. The factors that determine the length of a feature are the personal vows, quality/length of speeches, and other cultural events. I like to take the footage of the day and use as much of the audio, speeches, vows, etc. to create a cinematic story. Main features are extremely enjoyable to watch and very story driven.
-
Yes, if you choose me as a filmmaker for your wedding (thanks!) you allow me to use the film (only the highlight film!) as a reference on my homepage and facebook/instagram. Meaning I own the copy right for the film. Naturally you get the digitial and image copyright for private usage.
