    Highly recommend !

    We hired Dan after a recommendation from a friend, for our wedding photography and videography this past November. From our first phone call, Dan was super easy to talk to, answered a ton of questions and made us confident with our decision from the start. He was extremely responsive to emails and texts, and gave us a lot of recommendations and suggestions as we truly had no idea what we were doing. We had our engagement photo session in the Spring, and Dan made us feel very comfortable right away, especially considering we were both nervous, having never done a photo shoot before and had no idea what to expect. Dan made it a lot of fun! His passion really came threw, as we went way longer than anticipated to catch every last opportunity for a great shot. He was prepared, organized and super efficient. We got our pictures back sooner than expected and loved them!!!

    Leading up to our wedding, we met with Dan a few times to make sure we had everything planned as much as possible. We told him about our secret first dance, which he planned for in advance by watching videos to make sure they had a plan for how to best capture it for us. And boy did they do an amazing job! Dan was able to make it to our rehearsal, which was great. He took it upon himself to ask some questions at the venue and make sure he had the right plan for best photos and sound. The day of the wedding his whole team was great. They all stayed in their own lane, but were also very personable and made everyone feel comfortable. Their schedule worked out seamlessly! They really worked efficiently to make sure they got as much footage as possible. The photos and videos were beautifully done. Overall, we were really pleased. We highly recommend Dan and his team!

    A special day captured perfectly!

    It was such a pleasure to work with Dan and we wouldn’t have had anyone else capture our special day! Weddings are stressful enough and throwing a pandemic in the mix didn’t help! Dan was able to work with our ever-changing plans and help us come up with creative solutions. Dan is so much fun to work with and makes for a day of laughs and unique pictures. Never having had a photo shoot done before, Dan made us feel comfortable and directed us when needed. Doing an engagement shoot with him prior to the wedding was fantastic as we were able to get a sense of how he worked and practice some important poses!

    It is evident that Dan shares in the excitement of the couple receiving their pictures and videos so he works tirelessly to get sneak peaks right away and the rest of the albums shortly after. The wedding video was well thought out and perfectly captured our day! We were very impressed with his professionalism, authenticity and timing and can’t thank him enough for making our day so special.

    Very grateful to you for taking the time to write a review for us! we definitely appreciate it. With everything that went on this past year and a half, I'm so happy for you and Carl, and that it all worked out on your big day! Such an awesome venue at the Sweet Haven Barn and the "Drive In" wedding worked out perfect. Seriously, a brilliant idea.

    Cannot thank Dan Kim enough!!

    We had a private small wedding due to COVID19, we were worried we would loose some special touches due to the restrictions of a pandemic but oh my I cannot thank Dan Kim studios enough for going above and beyond capturing our beautiful moments and making the day so special for us. I enjoyed being able to discuss all my ideas and things I liked and didn't before hand and he totally listened to everything and completely captured a perfect winter christnas wedding for us. They were very custom and created a packaged that worked with us and our unique situation. so kind and so much fun the have them there on our wedding day!

    Dan Kim Studios Photo + Film's reply:

    Very grateful to you Cara-Leigh! We thank you and Taygen for especially sharing your reaction video. That was definitely special to us and rarely get to see the reactions of our couples to the finished work, so that meant a lot! The wedding at Bearspaw Mountain Lodge was such a great idea during the pandemic and was a beautiful venue. Thanks again for taking the time to leave a review. We very much appreciate it !

    Captured a moment of a life time

    We had a small pandemic wedding, almost none of our family could be there for our special time. With Dan Kim we had a meeting and got our ideas and vision for our video, he then over-delivered. My wife and I now have something to watch every anniversary and our family can be a part of the most important moment of our lives. All thanks go to Dan Kim and his passion and love for videography.

    Dan Kim Studios Photo + Film's reply:

    Thanks Taygen for taking the time to write a 5 star wedding day review. Your private wedding at the Bearspaw Mountain Lodge in Calgary was a perfect winter wedding. Dan Kim Studios loved discussing and bringing the vision of your highlight wedding film to life in the middle of the pandemic for you and Cara-Leigh. Again, Congrats to you both!!! We are very grateful you trusted us for such a big day in your lives.

    Amazing videographer

    It was an absolute pleasure to have Dan as our wedding videographer. He was incredibly professional and the video we received exceeded our expectations. He captured all of the special moments of our day and went virtually unnoticed as he did so. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a video with superb quality. I especially appreciated how quickly he would respond to my questions via email. Thank you Dan!

    Dan Kim Studios Photo + Film's reply:

    Thank you Melissa! We are very grateful for your feedback and kind words and very happy you loved your wedding film. It was such a fun day at the Sheraton Eau Claire and we were so glad to help capture it!

    Wedding in Invermere

    We had our wedding in Invermere and Dan Kim captured all the beauty of the surrounding mountain and at the same time visually enhanced the love between my wife and I. The photos were top notch! He took the time to get quality photos while letting us be ourselves. He made us feel so comfortable and was extremely receptive to our ideas and input.

    I would highly recommend Dan not only because he is an incredible human but is an extremely talented photographer.

    Highly Recommend!

    Dan was great to work with! He was very accommodating and went out of his way to ensure we got coverage on the specific moments we wanted! He was extremely professional and met everyone's needs! He arrived early even though there was a snow storm and was very attentive throughout the whole event. The price was also very reasonable. Thanks for everything Dan! It was a pleasure working with you and your team, we LOVE our photos and video! Highly recommend!

    Dan Kim Studios Photo + Film's reply:

    Thank you so much Natalia. It was so awesome to be a part of the big day! It was very neat shooting all the details and witnessing all the unique ceremony traditions for You and Josh. Very grateful and was so glad to be a part of it all !

    Focus on Why Media A+++++

    When a family member had first suggested to hire a videographer for our September wedding I was hesitant. I believed that a photographer would have been enough but boy was I wrong! Dan & Claudia are two of the easiest going people I have ever met. They were helpful, understanding and listened to everything we envisioned for our perfect day. We have just received our wedding video back and the emotion that they were able to bring back in showing us every detail we missed while being caught up in getting married was amazing. I have received non-stop compliments on how amazing they are as a team and on the presentation of our day through the video. I cannot recommend Focus on Why Media enough to future brides! If you are having any second thoughts about hiring a videographer, please meet with Dan & Claudia and take a look through their work. You will not regret it!! Being able to re-live the best day of our lives whenever we want is osmething we will forever chaerish and be thankful for. THANK YOU so much for giving us the best gift for our wedding. You guys are AMAZING!!!
