There are truly not enough words to describe how awesome Matt and his team (shout out to James) are at Lifetime Films. They are incredibly warm, talented people who truly care about the end customer. Matt shot both of my sisters weddings and James mine. Both are extremely professional, funny, and GREAT with a camera. I don't think I saw James once on my wedding day in the best way possible. I never felt uncomfortable because he never shoved a camera in my face; he blended into the background, worked great with our photographer, and the end results are stunning. If you're looking for a videographer, Lifetime Films is as great as they come.
Lifetime Films-Absolutely amazing! It’s incredible how a video can bring back all the feelings, emotions, and memories from your wedding day. It’s like you’re reliving the day all over again. I am so happy we hired Lifetime Films. Matt and his team were so professional, timely, organized, patient, and just everything you could ask for. Matt was so fun and easy to work and communicate with. They filmed so smoothly; you never knew they were there. We truly appreciated all their hard work. Matt really focused on documenting Megan and Chris’ story and showcased their personalities. His work just blew me away. The final video was absolutely beautiful, and I couldn't be more pleased. And I think I broke the “replay” button! LOL
Matt and his team will capture your special day perfectly and give you something you can rewatch for years to come. The day is so hectic and busy, your wedding video will be something you will cherish and treasure forever. Hiring Lifetime Films is one of the best things you could spend your money on. Please consider Matt at Lifetime Films. You will not regret working with Matt and his team!
I would recommend Lifetime to any bride!! Matt and his team captured our day so perfectly and I would book them again in a heartbeat. Matt was always incredibly easy to get ahold of & communicate with throughout the whole process. They do a great job at capturing every detail without you even knowing they are there most of the time. They're the best!
Hiring Lifetime Films was one of the best decisions that we made for our wedding. We booked about a year and a half before our wedding and Matt was a pleasure to work with every step of the way. He explained all of the different packages and helped me select what was best for our needs; he didn’t try to upsell anything, he just listened to what we wanted and helped me pick the best option for us. Several weeks before the wedding, my dad passed away unexpectedly. Matt and his team did an amazing job making some pivots in our original plan and capturing the true joy of our day. In our final meeting the week before the wedding, he really listened to what we wanted, how I was feeling, and what I wanted included and excluded from the video. He captured several beautiful tributes to my dad without making a single part of any of the videos anything other than joyful. I am thrilled with all of them (sneak peak, ceremony, reception, getting ready, and bloopers) and am so in awe of how authentically he captured the day. Matt and his team blended in seamlessly and captured so many details and hidden moments. I cannot recommend him and his team enough if you would like a truly unique, personalized wedding documentary for a fantastic price!!
Matt Pine and his team of professionals are the absolute best in the business. My sister and brother in law used Matt Pine over 10 years ago for their wedding, and there wasn’t a doubt in my mind when I got engaged, we had to use him too. I was so impressed with all the footage I watched of his previously shot weddings and completely blown away with our own movie! He has the best equipment, always keeping up with the latest technology and it shows. Our videography footage and sound was crystal clear watching on the big screen TV. The artistry he puts into editing with voiceovers and music is so creative. We laughed, we cried and we can’t imagine not being able to relive the most special day of our lives through Matt’s work. We will forever cherish seeing our loved ones together in one place and hearing their voices and laughter while they celebrated our love for one another. I look forward to watching this back with my husband every anniversary and eventually sharing it with our children and grandchildren. Videography with Lifetime Films is a no brainer for engaged couples and worth every penny!
I had the honor of working with Matt Pine and his team twice due to having a COVID wedding and a reception 1 year later. Matt was more than helpful and accommodating when it came to scheduling and deciding what is best to plan two weddings. They beautifully captured my ceremony in 2020 and seamlessly transitioned to planning my reception in 2021. Both films turned out better than I could have asked for. The whole team is so incredibly nice and fit right into the day; nothing felt posed. I was completely relaxed all day and knew I was going to get the best, timeless and classic video of the most important day. Thanks again, Lifetime Films team!
Matt and his team are perfect. They were everywhere and caught everything on video. He didn’t miss a special moment and we appreciate all of it. When we received the sneak peek, I couldn’t believe how amazing it was. Thank you Matt
If I could give 10 stars I would! Lifetime Films is the absolute best. Their quality of work is amazing. They are extremely professional and helpful and respond very quickly. They are also very organized and helped keep me organized in the wedding planning process. My sister went through Lifetime Films for her wedding and after seeing her video I made sure this was the first thing I booked after choosing a wedding date. It is 100% worth the money. I would recommend Lifetime Films to anyone! You will not be disappointed.
We had the privilege of working with Lifetime Films for our one year wedding celebration (pushed back due to COVID) and had yet another amazing experience with them! This year we got to see them work their magic at the reception and it was like they were't even there. Everything they do is professional. They are always on time and we never have to worry about them dropping the ball on anything. I would recommend them to every single person I know and I haven't even seen the final video yet. They are THAT good. It's a no brainer here. Thank you Lifetime Films!!!!
My husband and I had to postpone our wedding due to COVID. We originally didn’t hire a videographer, but decided to get one last minute. We’re so happy we hired Lifetime Films!! Our wedding day was such a blur and Matt captured the entire day perfectly.
Since our wedding was smaller than planned, I’m so grateful to have our day on film. I was able to show my grandparents that weren’t able to be there and that was so special! Our entire family loved the video and it has so many special memories that we can go back and watch again.
If you’re questioning doing the voiceovers, do it!! My husband and I were skeptical, but it was so cool to hear what the other one said during the video. Matt was so easy to talk to and I ended up rambling on for over an hour. I teared up hearing my husband talk about what I meant to him as the video showed me walking down the aisle. You won’t regret hiring Lifetime!
Matt and his team are fantastic! My husband and I had a month to re-plan our wedding due to covid-19. We reached out to Matt on short notice to live-stream our ceremony so the 200 guests that couldn’t attend could still witness our special day as we said our vows. Matt responded to us right away when we reached out to him and his team were not only able to live-stream the ceremony, but he also went above and beyond and provided us with a gorgeous edited and polished video of our entire wedding day. The video included our wedding song and captured the biggest moments from our special day. Matt and his team also worked amazing with our other vendors, including our photographer. They captured our special day without us barely noticing they were present. We STRONGLY recommend Matt and his team for any live-stream or video needs. Matt Pine is extremely professional, patient, and kind. His talent is out of this world. Without him, our day wouldn’t have been special. With him being able to pull this off in the middle of a pandemic really says a lot.
Thank you, Matt!! We will forever be grateful!
Lifetime films was LITERALLY a fly on the wall. I didn't notice them at all on the day of, but they were somehow able to capture all of the best moments! I think Matt and his team were WONDERFUL and I was blown out of the water by the video. Definitely not just making mothers cry... all my family and friends were balling their eyes out!! :)
Lifetime films captured our wedding weekend in a way I never thought was possible. Matt and his team really keyed in on the important events of the day (I mean really what isn't important on your wedding day). When the photographer was rushing to leave at the end of her time commitment, there was Matt and his crew, still working. Matt was one of the last people I said goodbye to at the end of our reception. Lifetime truly goes above and beyond to give you what you ask for, from the detailed form you fill out before, to the voice over, to the meetings, the day of coverage, and finally, to the finished products. Lifetime was a great vendor to work with, always kindly reminding you of payments (which not all vendors do), as well as delivering the product how they promised and when they promised. The wedding day I barely noticed them and am incredibly thankful for what they captured. I watch the videos over and over again, crying every time. I'm so thankful for everything Lifetime captured for us and can't recommend them enough!
I personally believe the videographer is one of the most important ingredients of a wedding day.
While details tend to blur over time, the video captures, shares and brings the emotion, the people, and the feelings of this most special day back to life year after year.
Matt Pine was faced with the challenge of capturing moments and details in our daughter's wedding while facing extreme restrictions at the church.
Mission Accomplished with accolades for the team at Lifetime!
We cannot thank you enough for creating a video with priceless surprises and emotion...
The most bang for your buck that lives on forever!
WORTH EVERY SINGLE PENNY! If you are considering lifetime films for your wedding, seriously don't think twice and just book them before it is too late. The quality of their work is above and beyond what you could ever imagine. My wedding day was easily one of the best days of my life and now I get to relive it through my film any time I want! Matt Pine and his crew are amazing, personable, funny, and SO TALENTED! I honestly can not say enough good things about them! I will truly cherish my wedding video for the rest of my life. Thank you Lifetime Films!!
I wish I was able to give higher than a 5-star rating. Matt and the team at Lifetime deserve at least a 10. Lifetime films was one of the preferred vendors for my reception location for videographers. I reached out to them and received an immediate response. Prior to meeting with Matt, I did some research (aka stalking his website) and was completely blown away by the quality wedding trailers. Matt and his team have an incredible talent of making you feel like you personally know every couple after watching their wedding trailers. I knew I was hiring Matt prior to meeting him after watching his previous work. Now that I have had my day and gotten my wedding trailer, I can confirm what I had already thought. Hiring Lifetime films was hands down the easiest and best decision I made throughout the entire wedding planning process. Also the only expense I didn't think twice about. Every bride and bride to be, do yourself a favor and reach out to Lifetime Films. I promise, it will be best wedding decision you make and you will not be disappointed. They are the best of the best in Cincinnati.
I just spent the last few hours replaying parts of our wedding video with a perma-grin. The laughter, the smiles, the subtle moments, the tears; the way I get to see my husband’s expression as he waits to see me for the first time on our big day... These are such precious moments that I can cherish forever, in beautiful HD and perfect sound, thanks to Lifetime Films. Really, you guys are incredibly talented and have exceeded our expectations.
When we started wedding planning, I knew I wanted the BEST videographer team. After all, I wanted to remember and fully experience our most special day. I can say with certainty that we succeeded! As many other couples have said, your wedding is the one day when you can have the people you love most in one room. It is overwhelming – your vision blurs and your heart bursts with happiness. To know that I have these moments (and the moments I didn’t get to even see) forever is 100% priceless.
Our 1 hour and 40 minute wedding video includes everything from the girls/guys getting ready, the bloopers, the emotional moments, the “hanging out”, the dancing, and our entire ceremony. I appreciated that Matt and his team stayed until the end of the night. They were calming, polite, and never invasive.
The voiceovers, too, are wonderful and unique. They are heartfelt, fun, nostalgic, and they take me right back to how I felt leading up to our wedding day. Hearing my husband speak was a fun surprise, it was just a bonus after hearing his vows.
If I couple provide any advice to future couples, it’s to budget Lifetime Films first, then do everything else. It’s like I’ve been gifted my own wedding, and I’m so glad we invested! Haha.
THANK YOU!
We chose Matt and Lifetime Films because the quality of his work was obvious when we were researching videographers. We can't express enough gratitude for how fun, professional, and thoughtful him and his crew were for our wedding! His sneak preview of our wedding blew us away... it is priceless to be able to relive the once in a lifetime moments again. During our wedding, there was so munch going on that it was hard to step back and soak it all in, but Matt's video lets us do just that.
We were nervous about doing his traditional voice-overs at first and we almost didn't record any, but they came out better than we could have imagined. Matt was very comforting and asked thoughtful questions to make it painless and meaningful!
The whole Lifetime Films crew was so accommodating our whole wedding day. It never felt like they were there. We didn't want any posed shots, so his style makes everything seem very authentic on the video.
We just can't say enough good things about Matt and his crew. He made the process enjoyable and his work is amazing!!
Thanks, Matt and the Lifetime team, for yet another amazingly beautiful film for our family. We knew that only Lifetime Films would be able to capture our family's "wedding weekend" and tell the story of two weddings and two receptions so perfectly. You are all such a pleasure to work with and create such a beautiful video, one that will be enjoyed for many years. Thank you for your expertise and taking such care in capturing the emotions, feelings and memories of such a special day.
Matt and his crew are amazing! I found Lifetime Films looking for a videographer on a wedding website. Within moments, I was crying watching video trailers of couples I had never met- I knew I had to have Lifetime Films! I sent in a request for our wedding date, and Matt called me back so soon. We chatted for such a long time, and he gave me so many recommendations for other vendors- one of which was our photographer, who was also amazing. Matt was so incredible- lending advice and offering suggestions without being pushy. We met with him the week of the wedding to get our voiceovers out of the way, which was a relief come wedding day. Our video is absolutely amazing, and I wouldn't change having Lifetime Films document our day for anything! If you want a videographer- stop looking and book Lifetime Films now!
Thank you Matt Pine and the rest of the Lifetime crew for capturing the most amazing day of our life. Scott and I cannot thank you enough for telling our story in such a beautiful way. The entire team was a joy to work with. I love watching our video and reliving that day. Hiring Lifetime Films was the best decision my husband and I made during the wedding planning process.
Matt and his crew did a beautiful job of telling our story and capturing our once in a lifetime day! The one thing I knew for sure was that I wanted a videographer for our wedding. I researched several videographers and no one even compared to Lifetime Films. They truly make your wedding just like a movie. There are so many things you do not see during your own wedding and Matt and his crew are able to capture these very special moments and told our story beautifully! I couldn’t be happier with Matt and his crew. I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone considering a videographer for their special day!
Our family has been fortunate to enlist Matt and his talented team for both our daughters' weddings. Videographers are often the first budget cut brides make...and my advice is..cut back on something else and hire Lufetime Films. Having a talented videography team assures you of a lifetime of memories that you will be able to share with loved ones. Matt worked flawlessly with the family, wedding party, venue, photographer, and officiant . No one knew he was there....until the jaw dropping preview video hit the web. Lifetime videos sets itself apart with their voice overs , drone viewpoints of venues, and coordination of up to 12 hours of memorable moments.. Moments the bridal party misses because the day does fly by. Thank you Matt... One more daughter left... Be ready to clear your calendar when I call please 😉
Matt Pine and Lifetime Films are TOP NOTCH!!! Thank you for capturing the best day of our lives and telling our story better than we could begin to remember. After seeing the sneak peak wedding trailer, we knew we were in for a treat, and that's exactly the product that was delivered! The voice overs, editing and quality are second to none. Thank you Matt and team for an amazing experience!!
As mother of the bride you want your daughter to have great memories of her wedding day. Thanks to Lifetime Films my daughter gets to see all the joy,smiles and tears that happened on her special day. Matt and crew were so easy to work with and produced a special film that will be a treasured keepsake. I highly recommend Lifetime Films for your wedding videographer.
Matt and Lifetime films were amazing to work with! They did such an incredible job capturing the whole day. Our trailer was unbelievable and we love that we relive the day! I would recommend Lifetime films to anyone!!
Nate and I absolutely love our wedding video! Matt Pine and everyone at Lifetime Films did a fantastic job! They were very professional and a pleasure to work with! We would recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat! If you or anyone else you know is getting married and you are in need of a videographer (which we highly suggest you get!) please check out Lifetime Films! They are the best!
Matt and his team did an exceptional job!!! They were all truly a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. The communication and thoughtfulness of our vision was executed perfectly. We are so pleased with our trailor and wedding film, we can't put a price on it. It's beautiful and the perfect capturing of the day. As a bride the day flys by and now I get to relive it and remember every detail. I absolutely recommend Lifetime Films. Not only did you make the mothers cry - you made us all cry. We can not THANK YOU enough!
Matt and his team are absolutely AMAZING. We were referred to Matt by another vendor and I'm so happy she put us in touch with him. From our first conversation about the wedding and what we were looking for, Matt was super engaging, energetic, and responsive. The booking/planning process was a breeze and Matt and his team were really fun and mellow on our wedding day. Words can't describe how unbelievably wonderful the video turned out. Matt and his team captured our day so perfectly and made us (and our entire family) laugh, cry, and smile through the whole film. I love that we can share our wedding video with friends and family for the rest of our lives and we have Lifetime to thank for that.
Lifetime did an AMAZING job capturing our wedding day! The final product was flawless and I cannot stop watching it! They captured every important moment and we got to see things we were not able to in the busyness of the day. Matt and his team were very professional and really were like a "fly on the wall." We never felt they were intrusive and yet they were able to capture every special moment. Watching the film takes us right back into the emotions of our wedding day and we have been able to laugh and cry watching all of the memories caught on film. Hiring Lifetime was definitely one of the best decision we made and I would recommend them to anyone!
Thanks to Lifetime films, My husband and I have all our favorite wedding moments on video. I was so impressed with the film, it even made my dad emotional! Matt and his team are so professional and talented, I didn't even notice they were around on our wedding day. The video is priceless, I would recommend to anyone!
I knew I wanted a videographer for our wedding and I did interview and meet quite a few vendors. However, I wasn't quite satisfied. Something was missing, until I stumbled upon Mr Pine and Lifetime Films. From the moment we met Matt, I knew I found what I was looking for to complete our wedding planning. They captured everything and more. Matt and his team were very professional and blended right in with the entire wedding party and our vendors. Our movie highlight is beautiful and brings back very lovely memories. Yes, it will definitely make you cry, while warming your heart at the same time. We cannot wait to see the rest of the full movie. Best wedding investment ever. Thank you once more.
The entire team was a joy to work with. I just received my sneak peak and I am beyond thrilled with the quality and overall presentation. Videography is a must. I think its safe to say I'm going to love my video much more than my photos. Ladies Lifetime films is the perfect compliment to your wedding and it will be a priceless memory that will last a lifetime.
Matt and his team were so professional and enjoyable to work with throughout our whole wedding journey. They did everything they were responsible for without causing me any stress and did multiple other little things on the day of the wedding to make everything perfect. We had an absolute blast working with him and his team and couldn't be happier with our decision. Our video is everything we dreamed it to be and more. Lifetime is worth every penny! We can't thank you guys enough!! :)
The videographers did an amazing job capturing our day! Our wedding video trailer completely captures our emotions of the day and I can't wait to see the full film!
Matt Pine and his team captured the beauty, excitement and love of my daughter's wedding day with such professionalism and artistry. The videographers were unobtrusive and respectful while making sure they caught all of those special moments. The music, the voiceovers and the editing combine to tell the story one of the best days of our lives! The video was a part of the wedding budget that I will never regret because the memories we have are priceless!
Take a look at the trailer:
http://vimeo.com/99599187
Matt and the lifetime crew were so amazing to work with I recommend them to everyone! They were one of the best vendors to work with, they knew what they were doing. I felt so comfortable knowing I was in good hands, I never had to stress that something would be wrong or they wouldn't get any if the footage that I really wanted. We watched our video so many times when we got it back, and for our one year wedding anniversary we watched the full video again. I was so thankful once again that I had such great coverage of our wedding because they were able to get Mikes grandma on camera one last time. She past away a few months after our wedding, you don't realize how much you will cherish your video until you see your loved one you haven't seen.
We were on the fence about getting a videographer and we researched local vendors all over, the only people we liked was lifetime. Unfortunate they were booked for our wedding day, so we decided not to worry about it and we won't have anyone. Lucky for us the wedding they had already had booked fell through and Matt called us. He actually remembered us!! How awesome is that?! Not many people would remember us, but Matt did. I can not say thank you enough to Matt for remembering us and giving us a call that day.
If anyone is on the fence about weather or not to get a videographer, we HIGHLY recommend you do it! When it comes to deciding who to go with, I promise, you will not regret going with Lifetime!! They are the best if the best. They never disappoint, they are the best to work with and the best "movies"!!
Some say hiring a wedding videographer is non-essential. I say those people must not be familiar with Matt Pine and the work of his team at Lifetime. Matt and the entire Lifetime crew are consummate professionals, innovators in their field, phenomenal story tellers, true magic makers. It only took sitting down to watch a few examples of the spectacular work they produce, time and time again, for me to know that I HAD to book them for our wedding day.
From the first conversation, I knew I had more in Matt than someone who would be holding a video camera on the day of our wedding, and I was right. He was a constant source of trusted industry information, across my entire wedding planning process, always there to lend advice or offer suggestions. On the day of our wedding, he was there to calm nerves and make us laugh (I think he even offered to help carry bags at one point!), all while meticulously capturing the moments of the day in a way that beautifully framed our story. Seven years later, Matt still finds ways to remember our big day – through messages, images – his way of letting us know that we are as much a part of his [Lifetime] story as he is of ours. Whether they know it or not, Matt and his team help us celebrate our anniversary, every year, as we sit down to watch the story they told for us on the big screen - the story that still fills the room with tears of happiness. Our wedding video is such a cherished, priceless possession, and we have Matt to thank for all of it!
Choosing Matt Pines, of Lifetime Films, was one of the best decisions we made in planning the wedding. After all the planning, and the flurry of the whole weekend, we can look forward to a great, professional, and beautiful video. Matt has a great eye of picking what is important from the weekend and giving us great memories. And, yes, he does make mothers cry.
Choosing Lifetime Films was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding day (after the groom, of course!). They were so professional, and every one of the videographers that was there that day was great to be around. Matt is the absolute best - he knows exactly what he's doing, he's clearly one of the very best in the business. We just got our "sneak peak" and it is fantastic...I think everyone who has watched it cried. They captured all of the little moments that I wasn't necessarily able to see on my wedding day. We also had Lifetime flim our Rehearsal and Rehearsal dinner, and I am so glad we did that. Having the Rehearsal Dinner speaches is great - the weekend goes by so fast, that it will be fantastic being able to relive every moment. You won't regret going with Lifetime!
Just finished watching our video and I can't even explain how glad we are that we chose to include lifetime films in our big day! You and your team captured everything and we are now able to rewatch the most important day of our lives over and over again. I will definitely say that having you there was the best purchase of our wedding! Thank you all so much for everything. I will recommend you to everyone
We have our video already! Thank you SO MUCH!! What an experience. Matt, and all the people at Lifetime are simply amazing. It was the best day of our lives so far, but it flew by. Now, thanks to Lifetime, we get to experience it over and over. What a gift! Every little detail we wanted was captured - and so much more. I can't get enough of it. I want it on constant repeat in our home :) We love you guys!! Thanks again!
Traveling from Phoenix to Cincinnati for a destanation engagement can have complexities, but I had seen Matt's work from a friend's wedding video and I just knew I could put complete trust in Matt and his team. They helped me capture every moment of a special day that I would cherish forever. From the first talk on the phone, to finally meeting Matt in person for the walk through and voice over on the day before our engagement. The professionalism and experience of the Lifetime team is second to none. The day of the engagement went off with perfection and the final video exceeded our expectations. Not only did mothers cry, but every time I watch it, tissues are needed. I would recommend that every man meet with Matt to have your proposal and wedding captured. The day goes by so fast and to be able to watch over and over is priceless.
My then fiance and I were on the fence about hiring a videographer - especially since it exceeded our budget. However, this decision was one of the best we made. Capturing these moments on video are priceless as you cannot relive them in photos. If you are teetering about hiring a videographer - you will not regret having your wedding day captured on film. Matt Pine and his team were professional and personable. Best part: you did not know they were there that day. They stayed out of your way but were still able to highlight on all of the details. Perfection!
Matt and his crew did such an amazing job capturing our special day. The day itself was such a whirlwind and watching our video was like being able to relive every moment all over again. We especially loved how they captured every laugh, tear, dance move- EVERYTHING...and not to mention the hilarious outtakes. We laughed, we cried... it was perfect Thank you Lifetime!!
We absolutely love our wedding trailer and full video! Hiring Lifetime Films was one of the best decisions my husband and I made during our wedding planning process. We were pleasantly surprised with how quickly we received our trailer and video footage. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Matt, David, and the rest of the team!!
Our wedding took place 7 years ago on September 30, 2006. My wife and I still watch our beautiful wedding story Matt Pine and his team put together. It was and is one of the best things to capture/watch/admire/enjoy/relive and reminisce about our day and have it forever. Every year my wife and I watch our wedding video, it is one of the things that allows us to remember who we were on that day. Not only just an image but a voice and a story. A story not just about us but all the people who where there that day, to see them smile, to hear their speeches/voices and good wishes, to see them celebrating. From start to end Matt meticulously asked questions about us so he could gather information needed to create our wedding video. Matt Pine and his team are courteous, honest and professional. They not only gave us what we asked and agreed to but also gave us something we couldn't imagine.... a beautiful story about us and the people there that day. They create and film such beautiful imagery and sound... People say a picture is worth a 1,000 words, well our wedding video is worth a lifetime. Thank you Matt Pine and all the people with Lifetime (Videos) Films, thank you.
Our wedding video was everything we imagined and more! One of the main reasons we picked Lifetime was the fact that they focused on all aspects of the wedding and were able to give us so many different angles. We loved the fact that we got to see our guests enjoying themselves, our friends crying tears of joys at first dances or us sneaking a kiss before the doors opened for our exit. Our wedding video is the next best thing to actually reliving our day over again. How many people are able to get their wedding video in HD in the Dayton-Cincinnati area? The turn over on getting our wedding video at such a prompt time was just icing on the cake. We've had friends and family get their wedding video just shy of their one year anniversary and we are glad we didn't have to suffer that long to relive one of the best days of our lives. Any bride who wants my recommendation on who to have, it starts and stops with Lifetime. I did plenty of research in making my decision and let me tell you after seeing my own video, there is no one else to consider.
This is an absolute must have! Matt and his crew did an amazing job capturing the best day of my life. I had a crew of four camera men and yet I did not notice them at all. They were able to film me getting ready, my groom and I meeting for the first time, our wedding service, and most importantly, our reception. Anyone who has ever gotten married knows that you spend so many weeks, months, and in my case, years, planning this day and unfortunately it is difficult to enjoy each and every detail. Because of my video, I was able to see each and every detail that I missed the day of my wedding. I was able to enjoy each and every centerpiece that my mom and I made, all the flowers, rose petals, tulle, lights, candles, and pictures that were displayed all over our reception hall. I got to see my special day from a birds eye view and not just remember the blur that it was as the bride that everyone wants to talk to. Our film was edited so tastefully and the voiceovers were an amazing touch. We had our trailer within 6 weeks of our wedding, and our entire video was ready just after 2 months! Anyone who is on the fence about hiring a videographer, just watch some of Matt's work and it should be a no brainer.. Lifetime films is the best and I am forever grateful for all of the work Matt and his crew did to let me relive my wedding day whenever I want.
We just saw our trailer and the reports are in... their tagline is true! But it should really be "Making mothers, cousins, friends, siblings, bride & groom cry since 1991."
Matt and the crew were great on our wedding day and got all of those important moments on the biggest day of our lives captured beautifully, and in a manor much more impactful than even a great photo ever could. If you want to be right back in the moment of the fun, the emotion, and the love you felt on your wedding day, their work puts you right there.
Bringing on Lifetime Films was the single best decision we made in our wedding planning, and should be a top priority if you can work it in your budget! Matt and the gang are amazing to work with! Couldn't be happier!

I was reluctant to use a videographer at our wedding fearing that it would be totally cheesy and that guests would be forced to say hi into the camera, but Matt Pine at Lifetime assured me that he and his team would barely be noticed at the wedding and that the result would be anything but cheesy. He was right!
My husband and I absolutely love our wedding trailer and video and Matt was right - we hardly noticed his team was there. It is so special to have the video to capture all the joy of our wedding day and particularly to capture family members who are no longer with us. I cannot say enough how thankful I am that we decided to go with Lifetime and that they captured our day so beautifully. This is one wedding decision you will absolutely not regret!
Matt and his team at Lifetime Films needs to be a top priority when planning your wedding. I'm convinced after having them as a part of our wedding day. I was 'that groom' who approached having a video team as an unnecessary cost. I couldn't have been more wrong, and haven't stopped thanking my wife for convincing me otherwise.
Matt and his team are nothing short of amazing with the work they do. We couldn't be happier with the results, and can't wait for our full-length wedding video to arrive this week! My wife said it best after watching our sneak-peek trailer...'can't we go back and do it all over again?'
After searching for the perfect videographer, we finally found Lifetime Films. From the first meeting, Matt Pine and his crew were extremely professional. The video and trailer were both finished much sooner than I expected. Their description of "Making mother's cry" is definitely very appropriate. As we watched our finished product, both the trailer and the highlight video, it was hard to hold back the tears. Watching the film made it feel like it was just yesterday and we were back at the wedding. The voiceovers made it feel like our own personal movie. We especially enjoyed being able to contribute music choices for the final product.
During the wedding and rehearsal, the crew made everyone feel at ease. We had a blast! Both sets of parents loved the video and have watched it several times already. After our experience with Lifetime Films, it was a true testament to the quality of their product. They not only filmed our wedding, but captured the sentiments of the day. They are worth it!
Lifetime Films was amazing to work with, and they gave us something that is priceless; they captured every detail of such a special day. Our wedding DVD was amazing, I truly felt as though I was reliving every fantastic moment..thank you Matt/Lifetime.
I am thrilled with the finished product and will look forward to watching this for years to come!
AWESOME! AWESOME! AWESOME! Matt Pine and Crew are all AWESOME!!! When we decided to get married the most important vendor on our list was the Videography. We knew that the day of our wedding would go by so fast that we wouldn't get to see it. With that being said I started researching Videography companies in my area. Lifetime Films came up and we started looking through the video trailers. I was sold then. We called Lifetime Films and set up a meeting... the day of the meeting WE were sold. Words can not express the gratitude David and I have for Matt Pine and Lifetime Films. It's far more than a video, it's a memory that will never be forgotten. David and I are under the radar type of people and all we knew is we loved each other. We never thought about "Our" story, we really didn't think we had a story, until Matt Pine and Lifetime Films showed us that we to have a story. Matt Pine and crew are Amazing. We Love these guys for giving us something we couldn't give ourselves.
After I got engaged I asked around at work about recommendations for different vendors. Matt Pine and Lifetime Films came highly recommended, and when my mom and I met with Matt we knew immediately he was the right man for the job! Our wedding was really big (over 300 guests) so there were 4 people there filming us on the day of. Every single one of them were absolute professionals. When they came to say goodbye at the end of the night I felt like I had hardly seen them! Matt and his team managed to capture so many moments that I didn't get to see in person - my husband and his friends getting ready, the meeting of our families in the hotel lobby, our guests enjoying themselves during cocktail hour, our bridal party doing silly dances as they were announced. I think we've already watched the video like 10 times since Matt told me it was ready! I'm so glad that I listened to my mom and decided to have a videographer. Now whenever we want to relive that day all we have to do is pop in our blu-ray disc and enjoy!
Matt and his team did an amazing job capturing our entire day. Him and his team were extremely professional and I wasn't sold on the whole video concept prior to our wedding date. Boy am I glad that we ended up selecting Lifetime Films. I can't imagine forgoing all that amazing footage that we'll have for the rest of our lives.

Matt and his team are incredible! We weren't going to book due to the cost but after seeing his work it is totally worth it!
WE ARE SO IN LOVE with our video!!!!! I can't get enough of it!!!! You and your entire team absolutely ROCK!!! It was such a joy to have you share in our special day :) Best decision ever when we hired you.
LOVE that we will have this to hold on to all the precious moments of our day. It's amazing how real the video makes it feel and takes you back to our special day! So many tears and laughs have been shared over the video. Our family is in love with it too! THANKS AGAIN!!!! XOXO
My husband and I would like to thank Matt and lifetime films for such an awesome wedding video! We couldn't have asked for a better video! The trailer, ceremony, reception and bloopers reel were all emotional and hilarious! Thank you for all your time and efforts in to making our wedding day perfect!
Matt and his team did an amazing job covering our wedding, and didn't interfere at all. They got awesome footage without blocking the guests and they made us feel totally comfortable. We couldn't have asked for anything more - absolutely flawless!
Matt Pine and his crew are ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! At first I wasn't sure about hiring someone to video tape my wedding but now that my wedding is over I feel like there is so much I missed. I dont have to worry though because I know I left my wedding day in good hands with them. I dont even remember them being there. No cameras in your face or obnoxious interviews with the camera either. You will kick yourself if you dont use them!!!
We just received word that our wedding video was finished. This team keeps you updated on when things are going to be prepared and ready- sooner than they say!! We are 107 days into wedded bliss and getting ahold of our trailer was amazing to see what this team could do with our day and I cried all over again! I cannot wait to see what is in store in our video and I now know to keep a full tissue box very close to me.
This team is fabulous- and they will treat you right and make sure the days is all about you and those you love. Thanks Lifetime!!
Words cannot describe how much my husband and I LOVE LOVE LOVE our wedding video. I am left speechless everytime I watch it! Matt and his team are the most AMAZING people to work with. They are hands down a first class team of professionals! There was not a moment during the day that I really noticed the 4 cameras on me. I don't know how they do that! Matt captured moments that I didn't even get to see that day. FUTURE BRIDES....YOU WILL NOT REGRET hiring Lifetime Films as your videographer. My grandpa who is 78 was crying watching our video. Again, I cannot put into words how much this video means to me. The memories captured on our DVD are PRICELESS. Thank you Matt for making my fairytale wedding into a movie we will watch over and over again!!
Matt Pine and his team at Lifetime Films are beyond amazing! It's not just the big moments during your wedding day that are important, it's those small one too. That smile, that glance, that dance, that look, your family, your friends, etc..etc..etc...it's those moments and more that Lifetime Films captured for me and my husband. The day goes by in a blink, and now to have these AMAZING videos to watch over and over again, it is priceless! Matt and his team are so professional and fun to be around! You really don't even know they are filming all day long! They just fit right in and make you feel so special every step of the way! They truly care and truly love what they do and it shows in their work. My husband and I wouldn't recommend any other videographer and we know we got the best! Lifetime Films is amazing and I am confident that if you have them at your wedding, you will be saying the same thing too! It is worth every penny and you will have these amazing memories captured on film for the rest of your life and for generations to come!
After deciding to hire a videographer, we quickly narrowed the search down. We were very impressed with Lifetime's previous work. Although capturing our wedding on video looked to be expensive, we can honestly say after watching the final product that it was worth every penny. There are so many little things you miss on your Big Day, and the Lifetime film crews were on the ball. Very polite and professional, all day long. They definitely have an eye for 'small moments' and we love everything they captured.
Our wedding looks beautiful on Bluray and in HD, as well as on the DVD copies we received. Matt Pine did an excellent job preparing us for what to expect, and worked well with our other vendors. We will certainly recommend Lifetime Films to anyone looking for quality wedding videography. To see the trailer Lifetime put together for our wedding, feel free to visit

Matt Pine and his crew do phenomenal work and go above and beyond any expectations you may have. My new sister in law used Lifetime for her wedding video and as soon as I saw hers I knew I wanted that at our wedding, not only a video,but Lifetime! I have only seen the trailer for our wedding and I was in tears when the music started. I saw so much in that short clip that I had no idea about on the actual day. Lifetime has a way of showing you all of the wedding that you miss because you aren't really "there" on the big day. Thank you for everything you do and we can't wait to see the final product :)
I don't even know where to begin...Lifetime Films is AMAZING!!! Matt Pine came highly recommended and I can see why! He is very passionate about his job and it shows in the final product. People who were not at the wedding, but have seen just the highlight reel have been in tears. My wedding was very bittersweet because my mother passed away 2 months before my wedding, but Matt was able to do a tribute to her that let me know that she was still very much a part of the day. Matt and his crew are AWESOME! If you want the best, CHOOSE LIFETIME FILMS!
I was really on the fence about hiring a videographer for our wedding because it wasn't really a cost we had budgeted for and I wasn't sure it was worth the extra money. Meeting with Matt and seeing his work changed my mind instantly. I knew I had to have THEM at my wedding. The day goes by SO fast & I am so glad I have the film to remember everything. There are also things that you don't get to see as a bride, like the guests arriving, the groomsmen getting ready, the cocktail hour, etc. I was able to see all of this (I had fantasized about my big day for a long time and put a lot of work into it and gosh darn it, I wanted to see it all!) on our amazing film. Matt was easy to work with and get a hold of, whether it was by email or phone. Another thing that amazed me was that Matt told me I would barely notice their presence on my wedding day. Sure enough, the day after I was laughing to my husband, "Are you sure they were there? I have distant memories of saying hello, but are you sure??" They blended in with the guests so spectacularly and captured SO many moments that I do not remember them being there for. Matt & his team are exceptionally talented at what they do and you can really tell they LOVE what they do: it shows throughout each and every video that they make. Thank you for giving us the best time capsule we could have asked for! We really hit the jackpot with you guys!
Where to start? Matt Pine and his group from Lifetime was probably the best money that I spent on our wedding. I was on the fence about booking with Lifetime due to the additional fee that I thought I could do without - now I cannot imagine not having our story captured so wonderfully on film. He was great to work with in the planning process and his team was SO easy to get along with on the day of the wedding. Every bride planning should book - I assure you will not be disappointed with Lifetime's amazing work!
Watching the video and trailer with my husband was absolutely amazing. There were so many (thousands) of details that I had forgotten or not even noticed from our wedding day, and Matt so perfectly captured them all. Matt definitely lived up to his slogan of "Making mothers cry," as my mom needed a whole box of tissues :) A+++ to Matt and his entire Lifetime Video team!
Matt Pine is a filmmaker god! Not only do they produce amazing product, they have outstanding customer service, and offer an all around enjoyable experience through your wedding planning. As I sat at my computer crying over the poetic and beautiful videos that are on their blog I knew I had to call him that minute. Setting up a meeting, talking over details, suggesting and giving advice on other wedding vendors he has worked with was all a breeze and an amazing help! We signed the contract for our wedding that day and decided to add on a save the date film so an extra special feature for our guests. Today I received our save the date film that had my mother in tears in seconds! Below is the link.

I would highly recommend spending the extra money for your wedding day with lifetime films. As I told Matt during our first conversation, "Flowers die the week after your wedding, this film I can watch and cry over for many years to come!" I can't wait for our wedding day with lifetime films!!!!
I was hesitant to have a video of the wedding at first because I didn't feel like being followed around with a camera. Matt and his crew put my mind at ease. They were easy to work with, very professional, got along with everyone, and added fun to an already great day. The end result was spectacular! My wife and I both had tears in our eyes at the end of the video. They captured the day perfectly and seeing it from Matt and crew's perspective was awesome. The editing, the music, and all the shots they took were incredible. We couldn't be happier and recommend them to anyone who wants to relive their wedding with emotional style!
I would highly recommend Matt Pines and Lifetime Films if you are looking for a videographer who will provide an exceptional lifetime memory. As father of the bride, I was initially reluctant to invest in a videographer. Boy, I could not have been more mistaken. My daughter got married on 10/29/11 and I reviewed the wedding DVD for the first time last night. I made it through this very emotional day without shedding a single tear. But I must admit, watching the video actually made me cry. The professionalism with which Matt and his team did their job was exceptional. They were never invasive during the entire day and evening of filming. They became like "family" during the day and my wife and I could not be happier with the results. In fact, in addition to the 1 hour and 45 or so minute finished product, we are purchasing the entire footage that was shot during our special day. I cannot wait to see more. The music selection to accompany the video was awesome and extremely touching. As father of the bride, I look forward to having this professionally prepared video for years to come. Matt perfectly captured the mood and essence of my baby's special day. Since she is my only daughter, I will cherish these memories forever. Thank you Matt and Team for an exceptional job. If you are considering a professional videographer, please don't do as I did and agonize endlessly over the cost. This is a once in a life experience and I am so happy that we chose Matt and Lifetime Films to record it for us. Thanks, Father of the Bride.
To all future brides and grooms: You need Matt Pine and Lifetime Video to be a part of your wedding day! They are amazing!! Not only amazing in talent and the ability to capture moments so beautifully and brilliantly, but in passion, professionalism and character. You are getting the best product and the best experience with Lifetime. Your wedding video is so important-it is a once in a lifetime moment that you will cherish forever. Matt Pine was so wonderful to work with-he is professional, honest, a lot of fun, gives great advice and guidance and has so much experience. Hiring Lifetime was the best decision we made for our wedding, hands down!!
Mr. Pine and the Lifetime Films crew are simply AMAZING! The best advice we got when wedding planning was from the list of regrets from couples before us and the number one thing must regretted is NOT hiring a videographer! I knew that a videographer was a must for our special day and after our first meeting with Matt Pine, where he almost had me in tears watching someone else’s wedding trailer, just sealed the deal for my now husband and I! They are simply great at what they do and you will NOT be disappointed! I mean 4 cameras on you (and your party) and a microphone to hear your vowels perfectly? How could you ever replace that! It’s one day that changes the whole rest of your lives and it goes by SO fast that you have no clue what happened, having that video to see all the parts that you didn’t see – its priceless. I think I’m going to go watch ours again… because I can! Thank you, Mr. Pine!
You can tell when a person is passionate about what they do. It shines through in their enthusiasm, creativity and overall energy. For this reason, I cannot say enough good things about Matt Pine and his team at Lifetime. Beyond being professional, courteous and an overall pleasure to work with, the product they produced was unbelievable. Way beyond what we'd expected. Way beyond what your photographer or a friend taping the ceremony could ever come close to capturing. It was a last minute decision for us to hire a videographer and somehow landed Matt & team. I can't believe our luck.
Somehow, Matt & team were there to document every moment, up close and personal, without ever being "in our faces." In fact, I barely remember them being there at all! When we saw our video for the first time, I could not believe all the intimate memories they had captured -- from the look on my husband's face as he fixated on me walking down the aisle, to the "behind the scenes" moments, including my dad and I waiting to make our grand entrance. They truly captured EVERY emotion we felt on our wedding day. What is more, the camera angles, varied filming styles, music selections and voice-overs gave us a film that felt like a professional picture.
My advice to all brides -- invest in a videographer, and hire Matt & team. You will not regret it!
I am so glad that I chose Lifetime Films to do my wedding. I saw things on the video that I had completely forgotten about and I have only been married 4 months. I got the same butterflies I had the day I said I do. I could not have asked for more!! My father is not an emotional person, but lifetime films captured my dad crying, him shaking, things I did not see. Watching his face the first time he saw me in my dress and our daddy, daughter dance. Also, getting to see my husbands face when they opened the doors, I could not see it that day, but now I can see it anytime I want. I could not have asked for more! I have tried to put into words how amazing my video is but there are no words! I would recommend Lifetime to any bride! You would have to be out of your mind not to chose Matt Pine and his amazing crew at Lifetime! Without a doubt the best money I spent on my wedding!!
I saw someone put 4 stars and they have to be out of their minds! Lifetime should get 100 stars! LOVE THEM!!
My husband and I just received our wedding video and we could not be more THRILLED! We loved all the intricate details that were shown on the video (and trailer). The Lifetime team truly captured the emotion of our wedding day. They were also discrete (even though we knew they were there) and professional. I highly recommend Lifetime Films! You will not be disappointed!
Neither my fiance or I planned on hiring a videographer for our wedding, but as soon as I found the Lifetime films website, I knew we needed to learn more! After meeting with Matt Pine, we made room in our budget and I can honestly say that it was the best decision we made through the whole planning process. The team was incredible and the final product is better than I could have ever expected!! Watching the video, I cried, laughed and was so thankful that Lifetime was there to capture all the best moments of our day. I'm thrilled to have this video for the rest of our lives!!
The minute I got Engaged i starting buying Wedding Magazines and looking at Everything Wedding related on line. I knew that I wanted my special Day to be perfect and Needed and Wanted an Amazing and Creative Videographer who would capture every minute for me to look back on.. Matt Pine and his crew at Lifetime Video did just that!!! Matt showed me our love trailer which is such a creative and amazing video he does and i watch it every day and Cry! He captured my Grooms face when i walked down the aisle and it is unforgettable. He gave me such a gift with that moment that i can watch everyday and see how wonderful it was.. MAtt Pine is amazing at what de does and is by far the best choice for a videographer. i know for brides to be planning a wedding gets stressful but believe me if you go with MAtt you will be so happy and he will capture your wonderful day for you to watch for years to come Andrea Durnell
OMG, Matt Pine and his team are incredible. Watching his wedding trailers of his previous work literally made me cry. Now, I've finally gotten to see the results from our wedding. We just saw our trailer (full video not ready quite yet)and I couldn't be happier. Everyone that has seen it, whether they attended the wedding or not, has stated it evokes such emotion and captures the love shared by my husband and I on our wedding day. We can't wait to see the full feature film! Matt was also very easy to work with and accomadating. One of our major criteria was that the photographer and videographers worked well together, and it was a seamless interaction! Thanks for the beautiful preservation of our memories Matt - You guys are AWESOME!!!
AMAZING, FABULOUS, BREATH TAKING AND WORTH EVERY SINGLE PENNY! My husband and I paid for 99% of our wedding ourselves and didn't have a videographer in our wedding budget. Our photographer and a couple friends recommended Matt Pine and his crew to us, so we looked into it. The minute I started looking at some of the wedding trailers I knew Matt was awesome. I met with Matt and watched different clips of his work and knew I had to find a way to get him into our wedding budget. We did everything we could to get Matt into our wedding budget and hired him. We have had our wedding video for about 5 days now and have already watched it several times. Matt and his crew did an amazing job capturing every single detail about our wedding day and included special things about every location and the surroundings of our day. We have cried happy tears every time we have watched our video so far. After every time watching it, we both say " I can't imagine not having this video". It is absolutely breath taking and was worth every single penny. Our wedding day was full of several storms and the power went out during our ceremony and our reception didn't have power until the wedding party arrived. The video was still amazing and Matt never once looked stressed about the power outage issues. Matt took our pictures, our story and our wedding day mixed it all up and created an AMAZING MOVIE OF THE BEST DAY OF OUR LIVES. If you are the soon to be bride, YOU NEED TO HIRE MATT PINE AND DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO PUT HIM IN YOUR BUDGET. Matt is extremely talented and knows what to do, when to do it and where to put it all......MATT PINE MAKES MASTERPIECES!!
