We loved working with Michael and his wife Leyla! We got two know them over the past year and a half, and would consider them our friends! Michael and Leyla flew to California to d...
o a "love story" engagement video of our new home in Orange County. We shot all weekend long, created amazing content and had many laughs. This past October 2023, Michael and Leyla videographed our wedding in Wisconsin. Michael and Leyla are hardworking, talented at what they do, and have a passion for people. Without a doubt in my mind, their videography services are worth the investment. I am so happy that we didn't settle for someone else. Looking for a videographer where our wedding was (in Wisconsin) proved to be extremely challenging. Michael and Leyla were the only ones that offered a high quality and timeless service that would help us remember our special life moments. If you are on the fence for who to hire, stop looking, you found your videographer!
10/10 would recommend!! They are so sweet and amazing with communication, going with the flow, and just straight up down to earth!! I absolutely love their work :)
Michael and Leyla are the BEST. It is very obvious that they spent so much time on our wedding video to make it perfect- unique to us, and captured all the great moments- emotional...
, funny, happy, sweet. We received a highlight, extended highlight, and feature film videos. Pictures are of course an important piece of your wedding, but the videos catch all the things a photo can’t and completes the day. It is such a great keepsake from our best day ever.
We have received so many compliments about this video from friends and family that they felt like they were there again and cried and laughed all over again with us.
Thank you, Michael and Leyla, for this one of a kind memory that we will hold tight forever and ever. 💕
Michael and Leyla are absolutely awesome to work with!! From first reaching out to them to the wedding day they were extremely kind and pleasant to work with. I had multiple questi...
ons for them throughout the wedding planning process and they always took the time to respond quickly. On the wedding day Michael and Leyla took the time to shoot so many detail shots which I know will make our video so special. Many of my bridesmaids said their videographers did not capture what Michael and Leyla did and that they wish they had used them for their weddings. Leyla came onto the party bus as well with us to capture fun times on that and I know it will be such a nice addition to the video. We would recommend Michael and Leyla to anyone- they are professional, sweet, easy to work with, and create amazing videos!
Michael and Leyla ARE MAGIC!
Besides being the most kind and humble couple, they are truly masters of their craft. Working with them both was an absolute dream (before, during an...
d after our wedding)!
Our highlight and full film exceeded every single expectation. It literally captured every detail, every guest and every precious moment I could of asked for. I would not change one thing! Everything from the flow and the quality was perfection. We are forever grateful.
Michael Cortes Pro Videography was truly the best!! We absolutely loved our wedding video. The day goes so fast and it is amazing to be able to watch our favorite day over and over...
again. They captured every detail of the day from our guests to the centerpieces. The videos were put together beautifully and are so great to watch. I couldn't stop smiling the entire time we were watching them. Michael and Leyla were so easy to work with and were always quick to respond to any communication. I have only great things to say and would highly recommend Michael Cortes Pro Videography!
My husband and I feel so lucky to have found and booked Michael and Leyla for our wedding. They were incredible vendors and we ended the process as friends! They delivered gorgeous...
videos from our day, and were so accommodating and throughout our wedding planning process and wedding day. We planned from out of state and they were so responsive and flexible with meetings. They offered great direction to my husband and me, our families, and our bridal party which enhanced our wedding videos and brought them to the next level. Michael and Leyla are amazing at what they do and are wonderful to work with. 💛 We could not recommend them more!
Michael and Leyla are amazing to work with. They captured our wedding so beautifully, the videos are better than anything we could have imagined. We would definitely recommend th...
em to anyone who is looking for a wedding videographer! We are very excited to have our wedding video to look back on and remember for the rest of our lives :)
We truly believe we stumbled upon a gem with Michael Cortes Pro Videography. We had the best experience with them and their work is unbelievable. I searched high and low for videog...
raphers and was super picky when it came to my choice. Michael Cortes was a great value with a highlight video, multiple extended videos, and even little interviews from family and friends. Michael and Leyla were extremely easy to work with on our wedding day. They were timely, were never in the way (I barely saw them unless it was 1 on 1 shooting!) and so fun to work with! Our whole wedding party had a blast shooting for them. Also, we had our highlight video a little over a week later! It was so fun to relive our wedding day so soon after while we were still on cloud nine. A few friends have already booked Michael Cortes since we used them and I would 100% recommend them to anyone else!
So far we've seen the sneak peak and highlights videos of our wedding day, and they have exceeded our expectations. Absolutely beautiful, and they did a wonderful job with capturin...
g the feel of our wedding day. Very reasonable pricing. They even stayed longer because our schedule was running behind. Definitely recommend! We can't wait to see our longer videos!
