Austin is not just a videographer. His work is truly one of an artist. His skill level and his ability to perceive situations, people, and locations to create a visually memorable and quality video just can't be taught.
When my husband and I g...ot engaged a year ago, Austin was the first person I thought of when it came to capturing our wedding day. I had seen his work a few years back and always felt his style resonated with us, and who we are as a couple. Being that Austin actually knows my now husband, when I suggested him, he was all for it! Mixing business with friends can sometimes be a bad idea, but Austin is extremely professional and treated us like he would any other client, as well as we treated him with the respect we'd treat another business. Match made in heaven and our teaser video is proof of it!
From the very start, Austin was very professional. We went over packages, looked over and signed contracts, and discussed expectations...ours and his. He was always upfront, honest and was true to his word. Anything he said he'd do along the way, he fulfilled. If I had any questions, which I had many because I'm OCD and overly organized, he'd text me back right away. He would always answer everything thoroughly and made me feel at ease.
Although I knew Austins personality and vibe was in line with what we wanted our end product to be, he still allowed us to send over ideas or things that we may want to incorporate so that we were truly happy. Not only did he make himself available through the phone, he was also willing to come to the venue prior to scope out the area. Unfortunately, even thought we tried 6 or 7 times, it rained every time we tried to go! Yet, that didn't hinder him or his crew the day of. Our photos (we also used his wife, Amanda) and our teaser give great insight into the location as if they had been there prior.
Right before the wedding, Austin sends out a very thorough questionnaire, which I was happy to fill out because Im nuts and love taking surveys, but It also meant that he truly wants to make his clients happy and give them ample opportunity to tell him what they'd like. What's better is he made sure to use it and follow it the day of so what you fill out isn't falling on deaf ears.
The day of was just as easy as the whole year had been. Him and his team, as well as Amanda and hers, were there early and ready to work. They came in , said hello to me, made sure I was felling good, gave me a sweet pep talk an then were in their zones. As I said in Amanda's review, the best part was not really knowing they were there. They blended in and just captured the day in the manner it was unfolding. It wasn't staged. It wasn't propped. It was organic in nature and I already know they killed it by some of the sample photos/videos I've received. The best part was that because everyone was so calm and chill, it really made for a fun and easy day. It felt like having close friends (even though they really are friends) among us. All my bridal party commented on how fun and energetic Austin and his team were and how they felt comfortable the whole day. From start to finish, Austin was there, even staying longer than usual to make sure he got every shot.
Angel and I are so unbelievably grateful to have shared our day with you, and you with us. Thank you guys so much!
Bottom Line: Book Cinema-Rolls. You won't be disappointed.
