I'm Godfred Mensah, CEO of Gordino Photo and Video. I'm a passionate, creative, and aspiring artist. What drives my passion is the endless possibility of creating and documenting memorable moments with people.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I worked with Godfred for our wedding videography and we were quite literally BLOWN AWAY by his talent and the videos received. We have also received so much overwhelming feedback from family and friends who have seen our footage and are in awe of what we have received. From the beginning, working with Godfred was seamless, easy, and the communication was on point. He took the time to gather details about us that I see now were carefully used to capture things that were most important to us on our wedding day. From start to finish, the attention to detail was unmatched. Then, on our wedding day, Godfred was a dream to work with - he captured so many moments that felt like a whirlwind to us on the day-of, but when we got to watch them in the finished product, we got to re-live those moments, and that is truly invaluable. Being on camera can be nerve-wracking for some people, but he truly made us feel so comfortable and at-ease. I have re-watched the wedding trailer Godfred created for us no less than a million times since it's been delivered, and it is truly amazing. If you are on the fence about having videography at your wedding, I recommend doing it 100% so you can have these memories with you forever, and on top of that, work with Godfred at Gordino Photo and Video - you will be blown away.

Any talented wedding videographer can create a 5-minute cinematic wedding film of your wedding but there's so much more to a wedding day than that. That is the most distinguishing feature about my work. While, I craft my videos around the love you share, the fun you have when it's just the two of you as well as the celebration with your family/guests is what makes each story so unique. So, as you'll notice in the examples, no two wedding videos are the same. I customize each wedding video I create to fit the couple I'm working with as well as the flow of the day, which will allow you to relive your day the way that it actually happened!

Awarded Best of Zola
Gordon at Visual Reflection is a MUST BOOK for your wedding or special occasions. He was incredibly easy to work with and his communication throughout booking and leading up to the wedding was incredible. The content he created from our wedding blew us away! We watch our wedding video every month on the date of our wedding to re-live the day. He captured every moment flawlessly and truly captured the beauty of the day. I would book Visual Reflection over and over again and can’t recommend enough!

Bailey is a true artist! Our wedding video is something we were very nervous about. We even considered not hiring a videographer because we were so worried about feeling uncomfortable on camera! Bailey moved about our wedding day capturing every important moment completely undetected, and I mean that in the best way possible! We didn't even realize in the moment that we were being filmed. She captured the most meaningful, genuine moments of our day and after seeing the final product, we can't even imagine not having this video to cherish for the rest of our lives. At our reception we had an audio guest book that provided us with a bunch of audio from our loved ones. We gave Bailey the huge task of adding some of that audio to our final video. We were completely blown away by how she mixed the audio from our friends and family with the other audio and video from the day! We now have a beautiful highlight reel that we can show to friends and family, we have an edited video of our vows with multiple angles, we have all of the toasts in an edited video, and, one of our favorite things about what Bailey offers with her videography packages, we have all of the raw, unedited footage so we don't forget a single moment of the day.

I've been filming weddings for over 5 years now and to this day I love being behind the lens and getting creative with each unique wedding. Capturing lifelong memories, that you'd be able to playback with your family and friends for many more years to come!

Awarded Best of Zola
We are beyond thrilled with how our wedding footage turned out! We had Rose Gold Films for our welcome party, catamaran rehearsal day, ceremony, and reception. Every single moment was filmed so beautifully and authentically for lifelong memories. Our guests are so obsessed with the final product we watched it over and over again. From the start, communication was seamless. She really took the time to understand my vision and was incredibly patient and receptive to my (very Type A!) feedback during the editing process. I felt heard, supported, and most importantly..happy with the final result. She offered great suggestions and made adjustments with such care and professionalism, and I truly felt like she wanted it to be perfect for us. We’ll be reliving our favorite memories for years to come thanks to her talent. I can’t recommend Rose Gold Films enough!
