We hired Michael to be our wedding videographer this past June and we are so thankful that we did! He really went above and beyond at our wedding! He was so flexible and easy to work with, plus he was kind and super professional! We looked at several videography companies, but none had the personable feeling that we got when we spoke with Michael. He was so understanding and kind and the videos that we got of our wedding were exactly what I had always dreamed of! He captured every moment of our special day and I can’t believe how hard he worked to make sure to get everything that we wanted! If you are looking for someone dedicated to their line of work and skilled at their craft, look no further! You won’t regret booking with Michael!

Absolutely would recommend Michael as a wedding videographer! He is the only one we could find doing both good quality live stream video and highlight video and that at a good price. He’s very outgoing, and enthusiastic about our wedding videos too. Thanks to Michael, our friends in other countries could enjoy our wedding ceremony too! Also we loved our highlight video, as the music and videos are well integrated.

We were not going to make a video at first but when many of our family and friends weren't able to make it to Victoria, it became an essential part of the wedding day. The livestream was something we wouldn't have thought of but it allowed dozens of friends and family in Manitoba, Ontario and even the UK to watch our ceremony in real time. Michael was extremely flexible about everything and very sensitive to the spiritual nature of our church ceremony. Most guests we talked to afterward said, "Oh, I didn't even notice that there was a videographer around!"
The final "highlights" video did take a little while to complete, but that was due to personal circumstances about which Michael was very honest and apologetic. Not to mention that the finished product was worth waiting a few weeks longer than expected!
The options of good videographers in around Victoria was a bit overwhelming at first but we are certainly glad we went with Michael. See for yourselves!

I asked Michael about his videography packages just a couple of months in advance of our May 2022 wedding, as Covid and family urgencies started to arise. All I wanted (or was looking for) was someone to capture our ceremony live, so family afar could have the opportunity to partake. Michael not only offerred live streaming services, but confirmed that the our live-stream video could be edited into some more fantastic and include the momento of an online guest book. One of my favourite offerrings that I didn't forsee was 1) being able to share with family and friends who couldn't make the live stream time, but were able to tune in a few hours after, and 2) having the memory of my husband and I's small talk during the ceremony (he was mic'd up) forever available for my laughter pleasure. Many thanks to Michael for making our day so much more than we hoped for!
If anyone would like to see an example of Michael's work, I would be happy to share my wedding video. Please email Michael for my contact information, or visit my profile.

I first learned of Michael when I reached out to other brides in a wedding Facebook group. I'd been searching for a videographer and sadly, I was looking for one on a short notice. In all honestly, I'd prioritized many other things because I only had only so much $. Like many others, I was also a "bride on a budget".. in attempt to make my wedding "Pintrest" and "#Instacute".

After months of planning though, I realized that I'd planned to the finest detail that I may not even see half of this stuff from a bride's point of view (i.e.: cocktail hour). Even if I did see everything, I thought... would I be able to remember what I wanted to in the years to come? I know I'd certainly want to.

They say a picture says a thousand words, but c'mon.. let's be real, there's no sound LOL.

Here's the thing: Michael was able to capture SO many special moments. They were so candid too. Some people watched the video after and asked how they didn't even notice him going around filming (He's like a fly on the wall, I swear--and he knows how to navigate around the other vendors like your photographer if you also get one).

He was able to capture genuine smiles, all the laughs, the hugs (and boy, there were hugs...lots of them having been one of the first weddings to occur during the tail-end of a pandemic), and of course, Michael was able to capture the people.

Imagine having everyone that was most important to you all in one place...sharing one of the most special day you'll ever experience. It was truly magical.

From Day 1 in getting to know Michael over the phone, I knew he would be a good fit. He is super professional, "cool, calm, and collected," and passionate about what he does. He truly helped me out by going above and beyond my expectations (picking up and dropping off rental equipment) and didn't even flinch or get upset when speeches ran a bit later than expected.

Now this is the part you all want to know--- yes, you can expect it. The vid was awesome! Not only did I get a lengthier version of the wedding, but I also got a creative, fun, high-quality cinematic highlight video to enjoy after with family and friends over wine :)

Michael is extraordinary... He's just a really good human being too.

(If you're reading this Michael ... from the bottom of my heart - Thank you!!!!)

We found Michael just a week before our wedding when our original videographer cancelled last minute... we wish we had found Michael from the start! Michael was an absolute joy to work with! We were in panic mode when we contacted him, he was so kind and understanding- he calmed us down and assured he could make sure our friends and family could watch our big day. He was in constant contact leading up to the day, explaining his process and giving us our link in plenty of time. Day of, Michael beat all of us down to our ceremony site, taking time and care to explore our site with an artistic eye to provide the most beautiful shots possible. All of our loved ones adored our livestream. Cell reception at our site wasn't the best so Michael had a beautifully edited final video up on our link less than 24hrs after our ceremony so everyone could relive the moment and fill in any blanks. We would work with Michael again anytime at all if we needed video services again, we highly recommend him to anyone at all needing these services!

Michael was amazing to work with. We had some issues with cell service at our location, so the livestream didn't work. He was quick to post the fully recorded version! Recommended!

We engaged Mike to video our wedding with under 2 months remaining before our big day. Not only was he able to accommodate the short notice, but he synced up perfectly with our photographer and we are so happy with how everything turned out. We would recommend Mike to anyone in a heartbeat!

Michael livestreamed our wedding and made a video keepsake for us (for great value!). He was great to work with throughout the planning process and was super flexible as we had to change course a few times due to COVID-19 restrictions. Michael also coordinated between all of the vendors which made our lives easier. His guidance through this time was definitely appreciated.

On the day of the wedding, everything went smoothly. Michael came prepared for the torrential downpour and the livestream was seamless and high quality for our international viewers who could not attend in person. Michael also worked very quickly to get us the recording for the next day so that we could watch the wedding with grandma in Scotland.

As a person, Michael was very positive, professional, and a delight to work with. Would highly recommend!

Michael was friendly, accommodating, and most importantly did an amazing job filming our wedding. He was also able to easily work around those last minute complications that can occur. We specifically wanted to mention how quick the turnaround was on our wedding video. He had a great quality video edited and ready for us as well as our friends and family earlier than all expectations. We would highly recommend Michael to anyone!
