Josh Stephens: Owner / Videographer


Since 2008 I have produced over 200 cinematic & commercial video productions while having the privilege to lead my own business, meet new people, and use my skills to deliver a service that is unique to the needs of each client. I have been expanding my skills and passion for videography as well as other multimedia. I have done so through education in Communications, Art, and Web Design while pursuing a degree at Weber State University in Public Relations & Advertising with an emphasis in Visual Communications.

I was born and raised in Ogden, Utah. I value time with friends and family. I enjoy getting to know people and making new friends. I took video production classes throughout high school and became Director of the school’s studio broadcast team my senior year. I also took a concurrent enrollment Entrepreneurship class my senior year and wrote a business plan for a video production company as my final project.

I was inspired by that project to actually start a business and I co-founded a company in 2008 that produces wedding videos, “Reflection Video & Media LLC.” I then competed in the Utah DECA Competition and won second place in the Entrepreneurship category. I followed with competing in the National DECA Competition in Atlanta, Georgia that summer.
I later became the sole owner of this business in March of 2012.

In my business I have the responsibility of filming and professionally editing wedding videos. I capture the good times whether it be in snapping photos, recording video, or just writing things down that help me to appreciate and see all the great things I get to enjoy in this life. I love to create and express my creativity by taking those things that I’ve captured and adding an artistic edge to them so I can serve others to create something that they appreciate and admire as much as I do.

THE PLANNING

Telling a perfect story is no accident.

A perfect memory of your day starts with hours of preparation and setup before your big day begins. We stand apart by putting more preparation and planning into your day. Here’s how we prep:

  • Your inquiry and follow-up consultations are built around you. We offer expanded hours of operation and conduct consultations in the evenings and on weekends. We are happy to hold a consultation in our office, over Skype or video chat, or over the telephone. The choice is up to you.
  • We provide you with detailed documents, calendars, schedules, and confirmations of booking information. Your plans are sent via E-mail to ensure every detail is attended to. We are also always delighted to work with any wedding planning professionals you designate for us.
  • We are happy to review your guest list, VIP list, and schedule to plan for details. We will also meet with other professionals (such as your DJ or wedding coordinator) to prepare for setup, timing and format of your wedding and reception.

THE BIG DAY

Every angle. Every moment. Every memory.

Here is what you can expect from Reflection to make sure your wedding day documentation is flawless:
Our packages include single-camera coverage, and we can add additional camera angles from multiple perspectives to capture every emotion of your big day. We are experienced, trained professionals who always remain courteous and unobtrusive during your wedding. We have a solid background in image quality, color, lighting, editing, and audio perfection.

We record sound from at least 3 independent audio sources, so you get perfection in sound as well as picture. We bring additional lighting equipment and backup cameras to prepare for any situation that may arise during your wedding.

EDIT & DELIVERY

We attend to every detail. Even the ones you will probably never notice. Everything is perfect- right down to the packaging.

The average wedding videographer spends 10-15 hours in the editing process. We spend over 60 hours editing, perfecting color, adjusting sound, and timing music to tell the story of a lifetime. We leave no detail unattended and your final video will be a work of art you will want to watch over and over again.

A typical video begins with hours of uncut footage that ends up as a spectacular high definition masterpiece. After completing your edit, we create four custom DVD/ Blu-Ray combo packages for you. Each set is packaged in its own custom designed DVD case with custom inserts, covers, and labels. All DVDs are elegantly packaged and shipped via USPS.
