Major Visionary Productions

Do NOT book with Michael Garza, nontraweddings, for anything. This man is a scam artist. Excuse after excuse, 8 months since our wedding and a year since our initial engagement shoot and he still hasn't delivered what we paid him $6190 for. The pictures he took are not at all like what he advertises. Those are staged for a bait and switch. That's not what we received. It took over 2 months for our pictures, then another 2 months for our raw footage which is so terrible we can't share it. The raw video he had filmed by his "intern" who couldn't hold the camera steady and filmed the ceiling during speeches. We were in disbelief, a child could have held the camera better. The angles are weird and uncentered, parts are missing, it's just awful. He never provided our drone footage, our feature video, or any of the edits we asked for that were included in the price. We gave him a final deadline last month and he assured me he would meet it, but added in that he was bankrupt. He did not meet the deadline. We don't have much because we asked guests to be present with us and not film since we had a "professional". Very sad overall. We ignored red flags and went with Michael because he was recommended by our venue, and had these raving, probably fake, 5 star Google reviews. He was not punctual at our engagement shoot, and that bubbly personality he has disappeared once he was paid in full. We are not the only couple he has recently scammed. Book anyone besides Michael Garza and his team. The wedding industry can be so predatory toward couples, and Michael is one of those vultures. If you already booked him, back out! He'll lie to ruin your memories to make a quick buck.

Michael was the videographer for my daughter’s wedding last year. I was looking forward to his creativity after he was suggested. He showed up to our church in jeans and a tshirt. I overlooked that. However, I will never forget the watching the much anticipated wedding video. I literally cried because it was so disappointing. He didn’t bother to film the vows, the speeches, or even a special moment of my daughter and me. He instead focused on drone footage of a train and music that wasn’t even used at the wedding or reception. The whole video was disjointed and in and out of focus. He might see it as artistic. My family saw it as a mess. I’m not giving him any stars as he did not film any important aspects of a very special day except the first dances. We will never get this wedding day back. Michael clearly made it the biggest disappointment! He was very expensive too.

Michael did our engagement photos & the photo & video for our wedding day in August. He was so easy to work with and made sure we got what WE wanted out of the day. He had a little video sneak peak the NEXT day and had all of our photos to us in an excellent time frame- We cannot wait to see the rest of what he came up with!! We will for sure continue to work with him for all of our future photo needs and highly recommend hi

We had our wedding on 10/23/21 and Michael and Evan were our videographers. They were extremely upbeat, and brought a fun energy to the documenting of our special day. They worked seamlessly with our photographer and made sure to hop around to catch video wherever possible. They even traveled from Iowa City to be with us in Des Moines for the day. I can’t wait to see their work. I know it will be great. But they deserve this review.
