John captured our day perfectly, hiring him for my son’s B’Nai Mitzvah was one of the best decisions we made. He was so easy to work with. We didn’t have a typical Bar Mitzvah, it ...
was at Topgolf and it was not a large group and yet our video came out amazing! We can’t stop watching it. And we are so happy we have it to remember our special day. If you need a videographer for anything we highly recommend John! You won’t be disappointed.
When I booked my photographer for our wedding I wasn’t even thinking of a videographer. Turns out about 6 months before our wedding my wife decided she wanted to video the wedding ...
also. Our photographer put us in touch with John at LJM and what an amazing recommendation. First off, John explained everything and his professionalism on what to expect was nothing short of perfect. He brought all his equipment and took videos of everything. For our wedding it was just John, and I was worried about how he was going to get everything, but he was everywhere and no where. He was never in the way, his equipment was top notch and never noticed and the quality and scenes he videos made me wonder if I was even at my own wedding. John shared we would have a trailer in 2-4 weeks and to the day he was sending us proofs to review. The best part about working with John was his creativity. We gave John creative rights and when our videos were done, any changes we wanted to make were welcomed. He wanted our videos to reflect how perfect our day actually was and took his job very seriously and professionally. After changes were made, we reviewed and they were finalized within 24 hours. The wedding trailer for social media as amazing, John’s communication was amazing, his expectations and involvement were everything you want. Someone to be knowledgeable and aware but not over burdening and he balanced it out. Furthermore his relationship with out photographer Marc Solomon was like two brothers who had been doing this for a long time. They complemented eachother well and created scenes and scenarios for our photos and video that made it perfect. I could not have asked for a better videographer if I tried and I happened to just get lucky finding John. Don’t make a mistake and hire someone else, as he is the best and you won’t be disappointed with the cost. Thank you LJM!
John was the first vendor we booked for our wedding because we were absolutely certain he was the perfect fit for us. We wanted more than a 20 min highlight video of our wedding th...
at most of the other vendors we saw were providing. John has a passion for film making which made him stand out. He was very responsive to all questions we had leading up to the wedding. The final video exceeded our expectations—cinematic, emotional, and perfectly edited. Every special moment was captured so beautifully, and watching it brings back all the joy and love from our big day.
If you’re looking for a wedding videographer who truly cares about their work and delivers stunning results, look no further. Highly recommend!
We are super happy with LJ Morelli work. We have done several parties, and John has always done a masterful job. The final product is great!
Finding John to be our videographer was truly a gift. I had a specific vision of what I was looking for in my wedding video, I wanted it to feel real and authentic. When I found ex...
ample videos from John, I knew his style was exactly what I was looking for! From my first interaction with him, he was so knowledgeable, helpful, and flexible. He was the vendor I was most excited about going into my wedding day. On the day of, John was early, and his crew was more than helpful. They kept the day feeling light and we couldn't even tell they were there, aside from his team member basically being MY assistant, carrying my dress for me so it wouldn't drag on the floor, holding doors for me, holding my flowers, and more. John & his team went above and beyond what I could have imagined, and I am over the moon with my video. We got our first sneak peak almost immediately & while we were on our honeymoon and it was the best feeling getting to rewatch special moments so soon. John was asking for feedback/edit requests along the way to make it perfect for us and I can't wait to share it with my family members who weren't able to attend the wedding, and to watch for years to come. Thank you so much, John!!
John was the best! Made our special day even better! He’s such a great director and captured every moment. His video editing as well is superb and we can’t thank him enough! We wil...
l always be able to relive the happiest day of our lives. He was very easy to talk to as well and before the wedding made us feel confident! Simply the best!!
We could not be happier with our choice of hiring John Morelli as the videographer for their September wedding. Every so often I am pleasantly surprised and thankful that a vendor ...
not only keeps his promises but goes the extra mile.
His work is creative and beautiful. He puts his heart and expertise into capturing the specialness of the day. He was the first vendor to show up in the morning and the last one to leave at the end of the evening. Before and during the event he gives 100%+. He is kind, caring, calming, dependable, hardworking and delivers! There is no chasing him down leading up to the event or once it is over. He proactively sends clips quickly as they are ready, seeking feedback, requests, and suggestions as he only wants you to be happy with what he creates.
He is amazing and I would highly recommend him to anyone that is looking for a videographer!
We first reached out to John the day before our wedding. Without any hesitation, he agreed to be our videographer. He was continuously responsive, making preparations and confirmin...
g with us how we wanted our wedding to be shot. On the day of the wedding, he showed up early and provided a drone to capture the ceremony. Throughout the day, he was quick to capture the best moments and was not afraid to get into the mix during the reception. After the wedding, he worked diligently to edit and finalize the videos, sending us samples of his work so that we could get a sense of what the final video would look like and suggest any changes. Our final video was beautiful and succinctly captured the most memorable moments from the wedding with seamless transitions. He also provided us with the raw footage on our own flash drive. John is an incredible videographer who is up for any challenge, and we recommend his expertise at any event.
John was amazing and professional. He always communicated well. Him and his team did a great job and captured some moments I had completely forgotten about. It was a great day and ...
happy John and his team was able to record everything that we can share and rewatch in the future.
John was better than expected! He captured my daughter's wedding day and was so professional from the moment he arrived. We have such a high-quality video> John suggested to add a...
drone and we couldn't be happier with the drone footage as well. The edited video is beyond a lasting treasure. I highly recommend him to everyone!
John's video services were wonderful. He was professional, reasonably priced, punctual & amazing to work with. He captured my daughter's wedding beautifully. I would definitely u...
se his services again.
John and his team were amazing on our wedding day (6/17/23). John is extremely professional and precise. From our first meeting over the phone to this very day, communication with ...
John was easy - probably the easiest of all of my vendors.
My husband is extremely camera shy and John made sure that he barely knew he was there. While we were away on our honeymoon, John reached out with some sneak peak videos - we were able to relive the day while sitting in paradise. His work is absolutely amazing; within a couple of weeks, we had separate video clips of our first look, first dance, ceremony and then we had an AMAZING full video of the entire day. We are able to relive the day perfectly thanks to John. You absolutely WANT and NEED John and his team at your event. I promise you that. P.S. - Don't sleep on the drone, you'll need one of those too!!
Highly recommend! Working with John was amazing, from the time we sent our request for more information John was very communicative.
He invited input on special moments we wanted ...
to capture and editorial input to ensure our video was everything we wanted.
Before our honeymoon was even over, John sent us a little clip that we could share on social media and would regularly send us clips to review/approve during his editing process and in just 3 short months we received our full video to share with friends and family.
To be honest, my husband and I were on the fence about the video for our wedding, money was tight but John worked with our budget and gave us a perfect snapshot of the most important day in me and my husband's life. John captured a moment in particular that is utterly priceless, all our grandparents huddled up together smiling, laughing like a bunch of kids at the photobooth. Being able to see them and how happy and animated they were on such an important day will be something we can pass on to our future families.
Mr. Morelli is a true professional. He ensures the entire bridal party is comfortable, has a knack for capturing all the day's special moments, and puts all of those moments togeth...
er to tell your very special and unique story. It was a pleasure working with him on our special day and loved that we had a short highlight real in record time to share with friends and family.
We highly recommend John and will definitely use him for all of our future special events.
John did an amazing job throughout the entire process. On our wedding day, he arrived early and captured all of the special moments of the wedding. After the wedding, he shared edi...
ted clips of the day which we very much appreciated getting so quickly! We even watched them at the airport on our way home from our honeymoon! John was so great to work with and was very flexible in letting us choose the background songs, and any time we asked for a change he made it so quickly. John has such attention to detail with compiling and editing the shots we could not have hoped for anything better!
John was wonderful to work with for our wedding! Prior to the wedding, he was communicative, helpful, knowledgeable, and made us feel comfortable. On wedding day, he was profession...
al, attentive, and was with us the whole day to capture everything! He even interviewed our guests when we requested it! We are so glad we hired John and can’t wait to recommend him to all of our friends!
John and his team were phenomenal for our July 2022 wedding. John was a joy to work with the day of and responded to all of our requests before and after. He captured all the speci...
al moments from the very start of our day to the very last song with multiple cameras including drones. The bridal party got ready at my parents house with me and the groomsmen got ready at my in-laws house. John captured all the little moments of that morning perfectly and compiled them all together in our video. We had a church ceremony which John so beautifully captured from every angle and pieced together wonderfully. We really wanted the full sound from the readings, music, and homily captured and John did just that. He worked extremely well with our photographer throughout the day capturing the big and little moments in between photos. Our cocktail hour and reception was at Flowerfield Celebrations. During the cocktail hour and reception John and his team seemed to capture everyone from our 250 person wedding - either on the dance floor or sitting at their table. We were truly so impressed when we received the highlight trailer and full video to review. John is a talented videographer and editor and compiled an amazing video with all of the scenes they captured. He sent us our highlight trailer and full wedding video within 4 months! He even sent us previews without us asking between our wedding and when the video was finalized. He was so understanding and responsive to our requests for certain songs to be included in the videos and editing of certain clips. We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with him! 100% you need to book John for your wedding! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
John Morelli’s work will speak for itself. He was the absolute perfect person to capture our wedding. We are beyond delighted with the results. His variety of packages available ma...
de having a videographer on our special day possible. The quality in his work is impecable, he truly is an amazingly talented individual. He will be a lifetime recommendation from us to anyone who needs videography services. Watching our trailer felt like we were watching the preview to an actual movie. The quality in his work makes me feel like I’ll be able to relive my wedding time and time again.
John made an amazing video of the wedding, complete with special effects, a cast of characters at the end, and then a video montage of the honeymoon. After the wedding and up until...
we got the completed package, he sent us new clips to show us how it was coming along. The cast of characters came across like the credits at the end of a movie and it was a great touch! He was so accommodating no matter what the request (and there were many requests). We loved that he was so responsive and that he made sure to capture all the important details of our day, big or small. Highly recommended!!
John was extremely professional and by far exceeded any expectations me and my wife had for our video. He was at our venue before our scheduled time, and stayed longer then we rese...
rved him for. He is very passionate about his work and it is clear to see through the results of his film. He was extremely easy to work with, and he was very detail oriented which my wife loved. He honored all of our requests and the quality of his work could not have been any more perfect. I would highly recommend John to anyone looking for a videographer for their special day.
My husband and I got married in July of 2014. John did an AMAZING job on our video. We were speechless when we received it. He captured such special moments during our day that we ...
will cherish forever. Not only was his work phenomenal, he always answered my emails within hours of me writing him (which is practically unheard of in this industry). I would recommend him to any bride who is considering a videographer.
John did a great job, very professional. I would recommend him to family and friends.
John Morelli was a pleasure to work with and his work came out beautifully. We got our wedding video promptly. He has many packages to choose from to fit everyone's budget. My husb...
and and I are very happy with him. We would definitely use him again.
John is a professional and talented artist. He takes the time to learn about you and your personality, and then reflects that in the final product. The technical details - from the...
audio clips during speeches and ceremony music - are very impressive and polished. John has a lot of experience with weddings, and constantly challenges himself to implement innovative techniques into his work. My husband and I were very happy with the video - it is definitely a more sophisticated, "in the moment" representation of the big day as compared to other wedding videography I have seen.
John Morelli is amazing. He is a delight to work with and truly an artistic genius. Do not be turned off by his sometimes quiet or shy personality or his studio in the basement of ...
his home. The quality of his work, his efficiency, and the attention you get are all five stars. My entire family has used him for weddings and even birthday parties. I would highly recommend him to all!
I can highly reccommend John and Morelli Media. We hired him for our wedding in Sept 2010. We absolutely LOVE our video and still watch it all the time. There are so many moments t...
hat he caught that we hadn't seen or remembered that day. He really didn't miss a beat and at the same time I never felt like he got in the way. He was very discreet and extremely professional. What makes John really stand apart from the other videographers we met with is that he is by far the most creative. With our photos and video we were definitely looking for something more creative than your standard wedding service. John creates amazing recaps, honeymoon clips, a great clip of the "cast" members (i would highly reccommend this! such a fun clip), credits etc He also allows you to be really be involved in the editing process, choosing the music etc. He obviously spends a lot of time with each wedding. I think the quality of the editing and also the footage in general was top notch. I am so happy we were referred to him, we really couldn't have been happier with our video. We sent links around to some of our friends and family of the cast and recap and everyone was blown away. They had never seen anything like it before. One of my friends decided to hire John for her wedding as well. I would also reccommend paying a little extra for the 2nd camera. It was great to see different angles, for instance walking down the aisle one camera is with the bride but the other was with the groom. Seeing my husband's anticipation waiting for me to come down the aisle is priceless, those are the moments you want to treasure. If you're lucky enough to have come across Morelli Media, hire them!
