Donovan did an excellent job producing the video for my daughter’s wedding. It was beyond our expectations. We felt like we were watching a movie because the editing and the music was perfect. He captured all of the highlights and the beautiful quiet moments. Very professional and dependable. I recommend him wholeheartedly.

I always knew I wanted a wedding video made. I am so glad we chose Donavon. He was there throughout our whole wedding day and made sure he captured each moment perfectly. He paid attention to detail and had great ideas for special shots! He is kind and talented and did such a fantastic job. We love our video so much. We could not have asked for a better videographer!

Donavon is very good with his work. During our wedding day he was friendly, professional, and worked well with my photographer to get all of the good shots. Our video turned out great, and the wait was not long at all. He's very easy to work with and extremely flexible with our requests. He also gave us all of our raw footage which a lot of vendors won't do but we're very happy to get them! Getting a videographer is an amazing way to remember our day and we're very happy with Donavon.

Donovan was so helpful before the wedding started and made us feel comfortable throughout the whole day! My husband hates being in front of a camera and Donovan was able to get all the special moments captured. My husband and I absolutely loved the final product of or wedding sent to us. (My husband really doesn’t care about things like this and when I tell you he kept replaying it.!) The wedding video felt like we were watching a movie. I 100% recommend Donovan!!

We were lucky enough to book such a great videographer last minute, due to not knowing if we would have enough left in our budget. Cannot recommend Donavon enough! He was great to work with, and we got our video plus several sneak peaks back in a more than timely manor. 10/10!
