Prince7 Studios

From our initial meeting, Princeton seemed full of energy and very professional. We hired him for our 2012 wedding because we liked his style and his price point.
The day of the wedding he arrived earlier then stated in the contract and got to work right away. He was really easy to be around and made me feel comfortable even with the video camera inches away from my face. He and the other videographer were very patient and understanding as he had about 4 locations to go to that day.
Our video came a little later than I expected but he more than made up for it with his customer service afterwards. Other videographers make you wait a year, we got ours in half that, so I can’t complain too much.
The highlight video was excellent which is what most people nowadays care about. Everyone raved about it. Overall, I’d recommend Princeton to other brides.

We hired Princeton Simeona for our wedding that took place in Honolulu back in 2011. I suspected from his carefree, relaxed (read: not responsive) style that he was not the videographer for us, but I gave him the benefit of the doubt based on his enthusiasm and energy he brought to our first meeting.
The first thing that was odd was that he did not send us a contract even though we asked for it repeatedly. After our wedding coordinator began harassing him, he finally sent it (after our wedding occurred). His reassurance was simply «don’t worry, I’ll be there.» After we verbally agreed to hire him, we rarely heard from him again. During one of our initial conversations, he asked if we wanted steadycam shots (which we did not realize required another videographer). He said that if we did, it would not be a problem. A month or so prior to our wedding, I told him that we indeed wanted the steadycam and didn’t worry about it when he didn’t explicitly address it. I thought it was just another camera. However, about one week prior to the wedding he called and said he could not secure someone for the steadycam work (after he worked so hard to sell the service to us). He said he would try again and in the meantime we reached out to our coordinator.
Ultimately, it was our coordinator who found someone for us – who got fantastic shots and honestly, vastly improved Princeton’s final product.
We paid on the order of several thousands of dollars for Princeton’s service, and it was mostly for the 5 minute highlights clip. At first, he refused to use the work of the steadycam guy which made no sense to me either.
I think Princeton’s original contract was that he would send us our video in 3 months. Our wedding was in June and we received our product in January the following year. Admittedly, the highlights clip was great (much thanks to the steadycam work) but the accompanying documentation of the ceremony and reception were utterly disappointing. He’d basically set up a camera on a tripod and flipped it on. There were no shots of our guests or the backdrops — it was just a camera fixated (literally) on my groom and myself the entire time — nothing I could not have done myself!
I could not in any good faith recommend Princeton. I did like the highlights clip he created, but the path to get it in our hands was ridiculous. From his general unresponsiveness and irresponsible attitude to false promises and the length of time for him to turnaround his product… there has to be a better videographer out there (and there are, but they were all booked!). In addition, the general comments we heard from our guests about the videographer was that he was hanging out on the lanai most of the time (which I noticed too, but I didn’t say anything at the time). He also almost missed the beginning of the ceremony because he was chatting with the steadycam guy (who is award-​winning)… Princeton just wasn’t paying attention. He’s a young guy who at the time was trying to break into the business but has a lot to learn in terms of professionalism.
