San Francisco Wedding Videographer
San Francisco might be the most cinematic city in America to get married in. Fog rolling over the Golden Gate, the marble rotunda of City Hall, sunset at Lands End, a rooftop toast above the skyline — I've filmed them all, and the city never stops giving.
I'm Minh Pham, a Bay Area wedding videographer creating emotional, story-driven films. From intimate City Hall elopements to full-scale celebrations at the city's landmark hotels, my style stays the same: documentary honesty, cinematic craft, and a calm presence that lets your day unfold naturally.
San Francisco is my home turf. I know when Baker Beach clears out, how the light moves through City Hall's fourth floor, and where to stand at a Presidio ceremony so the Golden Gate lands perfectly in frame behind your vows.

Filming in San Francisco
City weddings move fast and light changes block to block — fog one minute, hard sun the next. I shoot with fast primes and clean audio kits sized for everything from a 10-person City Hall elopement to a 300-guest hotel ballroom, and I build a filming plan around your timeline so nothing feels rushed.
