About this vendor
My favorite part of creating a film is finding that unique angle. Every wedding will have a bride, a groom, a cake, and maybe some flowers. But it’s the story that enraptures an audience. My job is to make that story come alive.

Henke Cinema was absolutely one of the best wedding vendors we dealt with! I was so thrilled when I came across the work of Henke Cinema, they do beautiful documentary style which was exactly what we wanted. From the start Michelle was clear about prices, times, and quick to answer questions. Wedding party members and guests commented on how wonderful and kind our videographers were (Michelle and assistant Richie) the day of. The final product was beyond amazing, and captured our day perfectly.
It was such a joy to work with Henke Cinema. My husband and I absolutely love our finished product as it is so special to have in video the most important day to us. Michelle was extremely professional to work with, and cared more about not disrupting our special day than getting a "perfect shot." My only criticism is that it does take awhile to receive the final film, but quality is worth waiting for. I would highly recommend Henke Cinema for your wedding day.
I highly recommend Michelle Henke! She is extremely talented & easy to work with. If you think getting a videographer isn't affordable in your budget I would think again. The day goes by SO quickly & I promise you that there are so many special moments you forget. She is worth every penny & it is something i will get to treasure for YEARS to come. All my family could not get over how great the video was, best they have ever seen. 5 stars for sure!!!
Michelle and her team was with our wedding party the entire day.
She was very professional and made sure she captured all the special moments we had.
They have hours of footage and I can't wait to see the final product!
I relived every single moment! I'm teary-eyed & all choked up. Thank you very much for your hard work on this video. I love it. I truly, truly do.
I know how much this video means to me now, but I also know that down the road it'll mean even more. Marriage will be hard some days, and maybe even down the road, for much longer than just a few days, but I feel as if God gives us videos like this, to look back at, put life in perspective and remember whose love is the most important. And that is Christ's. I have a feeling that I will fall in love again with not only my husband every time I see this video but also God.
Michelle did my promo video and did a wonderful job! Great video quality and very creative at story telling!
We have nothing but amazing things to say about our experience with Michelle. She not only did an amazing job producing and creating both a short montage and full documentary of our special day (which we have rewatched too many times to count!), she was also professional, considerate, timely, and thoughtful throughout the entire process! She was very easy to talk to, EARLY to everything scheduled, and kept great communication of the video progress post-wedding.
Michelle listens to and care about the couples she serves and we could tell she poured her heart into every little detail of our video, from the clips she decided to use to the background music and even the title of our video! She didn't just create a cookie cutter video but truly customized everything to reflect us as a couple. She has a gifted eye for attractive video angles, story lines, and special moments that is extremely unique and cannot be found elsewhere. She captured our story in a way that was better than we could have even imagined or told ourselves! The first time I watched our video montage, it brought me to tears and we have only Michelle to thank for the forever lasting memory of our special day. We couldn't have asked for a better videographer and it was sincerely the best decision we made. You just cannot go wrong with Michelle and the results produced will be more than you could have ever hoped for.
Thank you so much Michelle for blessing us with your God-given talents and loving services. We hope that you continue to do the same for many more couples for many, many years to come!
Michelle took family photos for us and we couldn't be more pleased with the entire experience! The quality of the photos and how they came out were absolutely gorgeous. My daughters and I both loved her. She kept it fun and knew how to engage the kids. Her knowledge of the perfect location and how to capture the images perfectly utilizing the right poses and activities, and light and etc., was just beyond me- so we are just so thankful for her! My daughters kept asking when Michelle could take their pictures again and that meant a lot to me. I would say we started a new family tradition of getting our pictures taken with Michelle, and that's really what it's all about is creating new traditions and capturing those precious moments.
Don't skip a beat to have the privilege of having Michelle of Henke Cinema document your celebration. You will not regret trusting her keen eye and abilities capturing the elements of your special day . Professional and prompt. She knows what she's doing, spending hours editing a film with such skill and it's clear she cares about the little things that result in a clear window to peer into the landscape of your day. It it's heartfelt and I think it's easy to say she is in the right business as she puts so much of herself into the final product!!!!
I'd give 0 stars if that was possible. Stay away if you have other options. We are usually not very picky, but she was horrible. Her worked was below par. She took almost 6 months. There were shaky camera issues, audio problems, and the work was very basic. Any time we tried to get her to do something for OUR wedding video, she became defensive, argued back, and kept insisting her contract stated this. Horrible customer service, never using her for anything else and definitely not recommending her. Stay away, I'm sure there's a lot of other options in the KC area.
24 times--the number of times I watched my preview video when I received it today. Henke cinema captured ALL of the details of my wedding. I am still amazed by how she went through 10 hours worth of footage and artistically edited everything. Michelle has an eye for beauty and is not just a videographer, she truly is a memory maker. I love my wedding photos, but there is something to be said about my wedding video. Every part of the video captures the happiness I felt on that day. Her staff and her are both super friendly and easy to work with. She responds quickly to emails. I would recommend her to any bride, both inside and outside of KC. She is by far my favorite vendor at my wedding.
Michelle is wonderful to work with. I cannot sing her praises enough! Not only is her work phenomenal, she is such a delight to work with. On the day of our wedding, she did a great job of capturing our day without being intrusive. She managed to capture every part of our big day and we hardly noticed she was there. Since our first appointment together, Michelle has been pleasant and professional to work with. She really tried to understand the relationship between my fiancé and I so that she could capture our love story. Each wedding is special and unique for her! After the wedding while she was working on editing the film, she did a great job of communicating with us about when to expect the film. She was very responsive to our wishes during the editing period and she ensured we had the results we wanted. We couldn't be happier to have chosen Michelle to capture the most important day of our lives!
My experience with Michelle was fabulous. Her crew and her were very professional and I was very happy with the finished product. She was much more talented than others in this price range. Would definitely recommend her.
Ali and I absolutely adored working with you. You were extremely pleasant, professional and have a great eye for video. It may be the happiest day of your life but it goes by really quick! That's why we really cherish the way you've captured our wedding day and our story. No one does it better. Cant wait to show all these videos to my kids someday We're eternally grateful! I've already recommended you to many friends and will continue to do so.
I found out about Henke Cinema because Michelle had performed videography services for a friend's wedding. I was attracted by her amazing cinematography skills and was so incredibly pleased by her profressionalism. She was incredibly sweet and very open to suggestions and requests. I have already had multiple people ask for her information after seeing my videos!
At first I wasn't sure about having a videographer all together but now I absolutely made the right decision, Henke Cinema was worth every penny. I can't say enough good things about Michelle and Henke Cinema. Her and her team did such a great job! She captured every moment perfectly! The final product was put together as if it was a movie, very artistically well done. I get so many compliments on her work and even have friends who plan on having her do their wedding video and they aren't even engaged. ha! I ABSOLUTELY recommend her!
Still waiting on final video should be available in a few weeks
We could not have been happier with Michelle Henke's videographer services! She was completely organized, professional and delightful to work with. She touched base with us throughout the months leading up to our wedding and was always available to answer any questions that we had. We knew we were in good hands the whole way!
On the big day, she was on time and prepared. She had multiple cameras and an assistant with her to make sure that they didn't miss a beat. We were able to inform her of little changes here and there throughout the day and she was completely flexible the whole time. We had an incredible wedding and were confident the entire time that she was catching it all on film.
After much anticipation, we received our wedding video and were SO thrilled with how it came out! The quality was amazing and she truly captured the story of our day. We were able to relive the day through her video and it brought back all of the great memories of our wedding. We have already watched it numerous times and shared it with our friends and family and everyone agrees that she did an incredible job!
We would highly recommend using Henke Cinemas if you are getting married in the Kansas City area. Compared to other videographers in the area, the value cannot be beat and trust me you will not be disappointed! Again, AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!
Michelle was a pleasure to work with. She was very kind and warm and did not add to the craziness of the wedding day. I didn't even notice her most of the day and was very pleased to see the footage she captured. She put together a beautiful trailer for us that brought people to tears. I am very pleased with her, ad would Definetly recommend her!
First things first, OMG WE LOVE OUR VIDEO!!! Every moment you captured and the way you put it together was amazing and really took us back to that day (and of course we both got emotional watching it)!
There’s absolutely nothing we’d change about it either. Everything is perfect and we’re so excited to show it to our friends and family!
Can’t wait to see the highlight video as well and get all the copies of our dvd’s to give to our parents; I know they’re going to LOVE IT as much as we do!
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but this video just brought all those words to life and we are forever thankful to you for being a part of our special day. It was well worth the money and we will definitely spread your good praises.
Thanks again!!
