Gui Bittencourt Photography 

5.0

  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Whitethorn, CA

Hi, I’m Gui Bittencourt — a Brazilian photographer and filmmaker based in Los Angeles, specializing in multicultural and mixed-culture weddings. I create beautiful, original images and films, but what couples remember most is how they felt around me: calm, supported, and completely at ease. With seven years of experience and all five-star reviews, I bring a friendly, grounded presence to your day — the kind that helps you relax, enjoy the moment, and trust that everything is being captured with care.

Awarded Best of Zola
Discovery & Initial Communication I learned about Gui’s services through word of mouth. A friend highly recommended him after hiring him for her son’s birthday party. Based on her glowing review, I decided to hire him for my very intimate civil ceremony. My main goal was to have the event beautifully documented so we could share the final video with family and close friends. From the very start, communication with Gui was seamless. He was responsive, efficient, and incredibly patient when addressing my detailed inquiries. One aspect I truly appreciated was his initiative to schedule a pre-event video call. This gave him the opportunity to get to know us, understand our personalities, and discuss our expectations for the shoot. His willingness to listen and incorporate our ideas made the entire process feel collaborative and personal. Planning & Preparation One of the reasons I chose Gui was his ability to include a highlight reel in the video package—something I really wanted. During our meeting, he welcomed my ideas and suggestions for the final video, showing a genuine interest in delivering a product that reflected our vision. Gui’s level of preparation was impressive. He took the time to scout the courthouse and a nearby park beforehand, ensuring we had the best possible locations for our shoot. His preparedness and attention to detail gave me peace of mind leading up to the event. The Day of the Ceremony On the day of our civil ceremony, everything went smoothly. Gui greeted us warmly at the courthouse, immediately setting a positive and reassuring tone. His calm and easygoing demeanor helped ease my nerves—something I truly appreciated amidst the mix of adrenaline and excitement of the day. He captured moments effortlessly, allowing us to be present and enjoy our special day without feeling overly directed or staged. Final Thoughts & Recommendation Overall, I couldn’t be happier with Gui’s work. His professionalism, creativity, and dedication to capturing our special day exceeded my expectations. If you’re looking for a videographer who is not only talented but also personable and well-prepared, I highly recommend Gui. 10/10 – Would definitely hire him again!

Intimate wedding films for the wild & weird. I specialize in elopements and intimate weddings. Your wedding day matters and how you choose to spend it matters even more. I strongly believe in spending your wedding day how YOU want to spend it. I'm more than just your videographer. I help you craft your best day. I'm here to guide you through the planning process and make sure anything and everything you want to do, we do!

Chelsi was absolutely wonderful. She has been a dream to work with since we originally booked her almost two years before our wedding day. She made everything very personable - staying in communication with us throughout the entire process and sending us questionnaires, all that put us very much at ease and made it feel like she truly cared and wanted to make sure what we wanted was prioritized. She does an “adventure shoot” as a part of her packages that allowed us all to get to know each other and made us very excited to see her again on our wedding day. This also took away the potential awkwardness that would have been meeting for the first time on our wedding day. Our wedding day was a blast and she kept us relaxed and we truly trusted her to capture our day exactly how we wanted. We cannot wait to see her final products! We can’t recommend Chelsi enough!!

He was so amazing, along with our photographer, they worked together so well and made sure we stayed on schedule and got all the moments captured we wanted. We almost didn’t go with videography but I’m so glad we decided to! He did such an amazing job with both the video and DJ. If we could do the day again, we would 100% have him again! He is so great to work with and so professional, I would recommend him to everyone! Thank you so much Conner for capturing the best day of our lives, the video was even better than we ever imagined.

Dream Space Weddings was amazing! I couldn't imagine my proposal without all their help. They were there to help in every magical moment, from the moment they landed in LA they helped me every step of the process (even hiding in the sailboat's tight cabin for half an hour until I finally proposed at sunset). My now fianceé was so enthusiastic with the quality of both the photos and the videos. As we are both in the film industry, these captured moments are very important to us and it was wonderful to be able to trust such a professional and see such results! We recommend Dream Space Weddings to everyone (though they do book up quickly for obvious reasons).

Stamper Films has been capturing and editing videos since 2014. Our goal is to tell the story of your wedding in a thoughtful, creative, and genuine way so that you and your guests can remember and relive this special day for years to come.

My husband and I were going back and forth on whether we wanted videography at our wedding, and I am so so glad we decided to go with stamper films! Firstly, they were affordable and fit in our budget. Even better, their style is documentary-like filming which we love! Looking at our videos now, it feels like an authentic, real, romantic view was captured. Yan Li was super easy to work with & everything went seamlessly. We felt very comfortable with him & his assistant, and they were so respectful of our photographer as well. Our wedding video makes me cry just thinking about it. Then I turn it on & I really start to cry— our vows overlayed on top of the footage, the scenery & details that were captured, & especially the emotion Stamper Films got on camera. 10/10 and if I ever needed videography again I would go to Stamper Films.

HEYYY! *waves hands* We are Leandra & Clinton Cunanan, owners and lead videographers of Food & Cake Wedding Films. We are huge advocates for doing exactly what you want on your wedding day. We had the most epic wedding of all time (ask us about it!), but we didn't hire a videographer. And now this why we do what we do. It's the best feeling knowing each one of our couples will be able to relive their wedding day for the rest of their lives. We didn't have that, and now we get to give that to you!

I am so blown away by not only the quality of Clint and Leandra's work as videographers, but also what wonderful people they are! Not even halfway through our first zoom with them to talk about what packages they offer and our vision for the day I knew they were the perfect fit for us! Being with them on the wedding day felt like hanging out with old friends, they were amazing at blending in to the crowd to capture candid moments while also giving us prompts that created some of our favorite memories of the day. They worked so well with our other vendors and I don't think our day would have been complete without them. They are masters at what they do, and also the perfect people to have during a busy and, at times, stressful day (Leandra was able to bussle my dress when no one else could get the loop on the buttons AND snagged me some appetizers when I was resting my feet after the receiving line, she was a lifesaver!) My husband and I both teared up watching our trailer and highlight reel, and then happy cried getting to see our whole ceremony, private vows, speeches, and first dances. I know this is footage we’ll be so happy to look back on in the years to come, not just of my husband and I but of our whole families as well! I'm so happy we found Food Cake, you will not regret hiring this fantastic couple!

You’ve probably heard the meaning of opal as, “precious stone,” or “queen of gems,” but we’re really focused on the reflected light that an opal emits (we’re photographers and videographers after all, we're kind of obsessed with light). We’re really here to be a light to our clients, meaning it’s our priority to show love to everyone because of the love that we have been shown.

As a fellow photographer, I loved getting to meet & learn from Tiffany at one of her workshops. As a fellow photographer, I have long admired her work and love following along with her content! She has a beautiful way of incorporating the beauty of nature into her photographs. She is a gem of a human and makes you feel so comfortable!
