We had such a great experience with Michael. We originally weren’t planning to hire a videographer for our wedding, but due to family members not being able to attend we needed someone to live stream the wedding. He went above and beyond offering so much more footage than we expected and the quality was great! We received a great video montage, set to music that we will enjoy looking back on forever.
Details: Wedding • 20 guests or fewer • Outdoors • Raw footage • Live streaming

In all honesty he was a delight to work with. He was early which made me feel more at ease. My makeup artist was late and I wasn’t able to direct him properly but he still did an amazing job on running with my choppy directions. During my ceremony there was a lot of little mistakes like dropping a tissue, or having to kick my dress into place but you wouldn’t be able to tell in the video because the way he edited it was smooth and perfect you wouldn’t think it was edited. Audio was amazing as well and I was able to relive my ceremony. The app only lets me choose 3 traits but I would choose all 5 if I could. He was a life saver because he was so easy to work with specially since he had little preparation (I hired him a week before the wedding since another person canceled on me). I could go on and on but the point is that I recommend him!
Michael was able to take control on an outsourced job for us at a client's location. He communicated clearly and was able to get the project done well within our timeline.
Details: Short film • 1 minute • Videography • Editing • Lighting during filming • Music overlay • I'm flexible • One location
