One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was hiring Brandon Michael Productions to do the cinematography and photography for our wedding. From the first conversation with Brandon, we felt like we were in good hands. He is very talented... and passionate about his work, and that made us excited to work with him. For photography we choose Tom from his team, Tom has a classy style and is very professional. My husband and I are not used to being in the spotlight, so we decided to do the adventure shoot before the wedding to get used to being in front of the camera. OMG that was so much fun! We felt like movie stars, and the video/photos came out awesome. Brandon encouraged us to pick fun activities, so for the shoot we rode our roller-blades on a boardwalk, picnicked, danced, played music, watched fireworks on the beach, and danced the night away at a bar with live music. It was one of the best days during our wedding process that helped relieve the stress of it all. We ended up blowing up pictures from our adventure shoot and displaying them at our wedding, guests loved that personal touch. We highly recommend doing the adventure shoot as part of your package, it's such a great bonding activity with your significant other and your wedding photographer/cinematographer. From that experience with Brandon and Tom, we knew that our wedding content would be epic.
Leading up to the wedding, I was definitely a nervous, crazy bride, but Brandon always listened to my rants and was able to navigate me to a positive and reassuring place. The day of our wedding Brandon, Tom and their team were on time and ready to work. Of course not everything went as planned, we were behind on our very tight minute to minute schedule. Brandon and Tom were still able to capture a lot of beautiful content during our prep and first look. After we got to the venue on time, and took the planned family pictures, we honestly don’t remember any interaction with Brandon and his team after that point, and that's because they were letting us enjoy our wedding and doing what they do best.
A few days after the wedding we already had some preview pictures, which made us cry with joy. They were so beautiful. Shortly after that we received all of our edited photos from Tom and an epic trailer from Brandon. Brandon is very creative, if you let him do his thing, the end result will be incredible, and that's exactly what he did for our feature film. The film surpassed all of our expectations, Brandon captured every special moment from our wedding day and incorporated our adventure shoot in our very own movie.
Our wedding day has long passed, but we will always have the incredible photos and films that continue to flood us with loving and happy memories of a very special time in our lives. Thank you Brandon Michael Productions, you have clients for life!
