We hired Mike for a live band performance at a musical festival. He met with the band and sound guy during setup, right on time. Very receptive to our thoughts/suggestions on creative direction, and set our minds at ease over audio concerns by methodically explaining and demonstrating his setup.
The final cut of the DVD and Blu-Ray blew us all away. The mixture of ambient crowd noise and soundboard audio was brilliantly mixed/mastered - exceeding our expectations. Video quality was excellent. We played a great late afternoon to dusk set - sweatin' over the low light situation. Mike just grinned, "no worries...you guys are gonna love it." He was right. The dusk scenes were amazing. We all howled like kids...looked like we were in a movie!

Mike was a pleasure to work with during the 5th grade production of 101 Dalmatians Kids Musical at PMES. He was reliable, courteous, returned calls/emails/ texts promptly. Rates were amazing for service provided. Professional equipment captured great images and sound. Mike exceeded our expectations. We will certainly use Mike's services again.

Mike was very good! He communicated well, met us as agreed at Canoe Restaurant in Atlanta, GA, took some great family photography for us, and has loaded up all the photos as he promised. I would recommend Mike.

I can't say enough great things about working with Mike. He filmed my engagement (I played a few songs on stage and then proposed) and he went above and beyond to make it a great experience for us. The final cut of the video was exactly what we were looking for and he was prompt and responsive with edits. I would, without reservation, recommend him to anyone looking to film a special event. He was a pleasure to work with.

Mike filmed and edited a soccer game for my daughter to use for college recruiting. Mike was very professional and easy to work with throughout the project. I appreciated his attention to detail and responsiveness to tweaks we requested on the video. The end product was exactly what we were hoping for.
