Mandie Forbes

s and made sure to get the best footage on our big day. We just recently got our finished video back, and all of the best parts of the day were in it! She made us feel comfortable and prepared for what the day would look like. Our wedding video will be something that we cherish forever, and we are so glad that we chose Mandie to capture the biggest day of our lives! BOOK HER NOW!

k you so much Mandie!!! You know your stuff!

She is so patient and will get the right shot no matter the circumstances! We were in great hands on our wedding day, and she truly made the whole day come together. Words cannot describe how much we love our pictures and how grateful we are for Mandie for capturing these memories that are most important to us!

. Mandie is incredibly talented, creative and knows exactly what shots will look good, but is also a very kind and calming presence on your big day. Mandie takes the time to get to know you before hand, communicate, and even had a sneak peek ready for us 3-4 days after our wedding! Hire Mandie and you won't be disappointed!

and include everything that was important to us. On the wedding day, she arrived early and stayed late to make sure we captured everything we wanted, and was able to help us adapt to anything that went not as planned (e.g., speeches running way over time, etc). Her capturing of our first look was perfect, and the candid photos she took of our family made me cry. I absolutely loved all the photos and the video footage I've received from our day, and have gotten SO many compliments on the pictures and video. I loved working with Mandie, who was so kind and friendly, and would 10000% recommend her video/photography services to anyone.

nd, and we are so happy with how our photos and videos turned out :)

free and perfect! Our sneak peek was 50 photos, more than I could have ever imagined, the full gallery still has me in awe!! Recommend her x 10!!

e one piece we have to look back on from our wedding that highlighted every detail we may had forgotten about. From the very beginning, I knew Mandie would deliver something special. The video she put together not only brings tears of joy to our eyes each time we watch it, but also to others who may not even know us. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

or a beer when we were in northern MI about 9 months prior to our wedding and she was so laid back we felt as if we were catching up with an old friend. We had always planned on having an intimate wedding (even pre-COVID) and not only was Mandie up for shooting our small event, she was excited about it. Leading up to our wedding, Mandie kept in close contact with us to get an idea of what we wanted which resulted in her being super organized and able to capture all the photos we were hoping for in a timely and efficient manner. My husband and I both commented on the fact that even though we barely noticed Mandie was there during the ceremony, she somehow managed to capture our exact feelings in that moment perfectly. Mandie documented our wedding day with the most beautiful, timeless, and elegant pictures we could have ever imagined. We got sneak peaks of our photos within 24 hours of our wedding and we got our entire gallery back in about a week!! Talk about prompt. And for all Mandie did for us, she was able to do it at an incredibly affordable price. I would recommend Mandie to anyone and everyone. She is professional, a true artist, and an all-around good human.

edibly professional and organized, but is also extremely warm and kind. I'm so glad she was able to capture our special day even if it did end up changing at the last minute! I would HIGHLY recommend Mandie to anyone that's looking for a photographer!

y and fun to work with from the beginning to the end. She was so on top of everything; she kept in touch with me during my wedding planning process, she helped formulate my timeline for pictures and the day, and she effortlessly made sure to capture pictures of all the details- big and small! Mandie was so great to be around on my wedding day! She put me right at ease, made us laugh, captured our natural smiles, and brought the best out in me. I was so excited to receive our pictures back and I loved going through them all! She provides exceptional quality and a fantastic quantity of pictures as well! Our pictures are the most perfect way to relive our wedding day. They are so timeless and I would absolutely recommend Mandie and her services!

of research, I found Mandie’s website and it was like I found gold. After being brought to tears watching the highlight videos of other couples, I knew Mandie was the one I’d been looking for. The Process: Mandie absolutely blew me away every step of the entire process. First, she takes time to get to know your story. She makes sure you are knowledgeable and prepared for your big day by sending a professional wedding guide that she created herself. This helped us understand all our options, which was so crucial in determining whether or not to have a first look. She literally thinks of EVERYTHING and is so knowledgeable. She was also so flexible in accommodating any changes we made due to the craziness of 2020. The Day Of: Mandie is the person you want with you on your big day. From her many years of experience, she knows exactly what looks good and how to get those perfect shots. She makes you feel so comfortable and at ease. You can tell she truly loves what she does - being a witness to and capturing your love. She’s also the sweetest person ever. The Proof: I knew our photos would turn out absolutely breathtaking, as Mandie had given us a sneak peak of our pics and video less than 2 days after the wedding. The pictures were exactly what I had wanted - they had that bright, airy, etherial feel that I’d so hoped for. But you guys, the highlight video, OMG!! If you are debating whether or not to do videography too, find something else to cut from your budget because this video will be the best thing from your wedding. Mandie has a true gift in capturing the most perfect moments from your wedding day and artistically composing them in a way that not only captures the day, but your entire love story (which she knows all about because she took the time to get to know you in the beginning). Our wedding video is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen and we will cherish it, and our amazing pictures, forever. We will be forever grateful to Mandie for being everything we wanted and so much more.

dating and quick to respond to every email every time I had a question. Very sweet and friendly I feel like I’ve known her for forever. We would definitely recommend Mandi and her services.

kind and helpful on our wedding day which made me feel so calm. She was able to make great connections with our photographers, even though I don’t think they had worked together before! Our wedding video is a beautiful memory we’ll cherish forever. Even months later, Mandie is great to work with as we consider purchasing add-ons to our video. We were so thankful to have Mandie donate her time and talents to us, and we’re so grateful to her.

d plenty of information leading up to the day. She helped to lay out the timeline for the morning of. She was super fun and easy going. My husband and I were basically begging her and her second to stay and party with us because we were having so much fun with her! Highly Recommend!

f the most beautiful shots and even got some awesome drone Ariel views as well! If you are looking for a beautiful romantic wedding video I highly recommend Mandie! You will not be disappointed!

omething that comes with the territory of also being a photographer. There are so many horror stories out there and she just seemed too perfect to be real; until I talked with her, began receiving her emails, and finally met her. She is amazing in every way and so very creative and talented! I knew that I loved the work I had seen from her, and by the time our session approached I was very confident that we were in good hands. She is so sweet, fun, and won’t make fun of you no matter how dorky you are! I highly recommend her, there isn’t a single image from our gallery I don’t like; I can’t wait to get home and download them all! I had a few photographers I was bouncing around in my head for capturing our elopement wedding in the future but Mandie is definitely in my top tier of photographers when the time comes to hire ours! I can’t recommend her enough!!

er, to pros and cons. I don't know why this was one of the hardest wedding decisions for me, but boy oh boy am I glad I found you. The second I found your website and inquired with you, I crumpled up my spread sheets and tossed them (literally).Your communication was so good and you truly care to get to know your clients so that you can capture their vision.. You were so quick to answer all of my questions, and throughout the year of planning and sending you way too many instagram messages, I truly felt like we became friends and I was so excited to have you be a part of our day. Fast forward to the day of and I was so comforted by your calmness. I absolutely loved your creativity and how you got as excited as I did when we saw cool places to video. Our sneak peak, our highlight reel, and our full video were more than I could have imagined and I am so thankful to have this beautiful masterpiece to look back on and remember all of the details of the big day. I will highly recommend you to anyone that I know.

e on costs but hiring her was the best decision we made and the videos are the best thing we have to remember the day. We were very intentional about the style we wanted for the video and she delivered perfectly. She's easy to work with, comfortable to be around, stays out of the way of photographers and others, and we received our videos very quickly. We couldn't be more pleased and we highly recommend her!

er with us on our big day! We know we will enjoy looking back at our video for years to come!

and ready, we got dressed and ready quickly! When Amanda arrived (early) she realized our plans had changed so got set up so quickly and jumped right in and still got video of us getting ready! She so easily adapted to the changes of our day and was the kindest person to be around! She got our sneak peek video out so fast (we were still on our honeymoon!) and the highlight shortly thereafter and it is my favorite keepsake from that day. Our ceremony video was done perfectly and she even provided microphones to our officiant and soloist so the audio is perfect. She got everything on video that I wanted and so many of our guests had no idea that we even had a videographer present until we shared the sneak peek because she stayed in the background! Her work was incredible, her personality made everyone comfortable and I would highly recommend her!

el so comfortable. Shes so down to earth as a person I couldn't imagine having anyone else! Her prices are so reasonable and she does such an amazing job! Highly highly recommend her! Thank you so much Amanda for shooting our special day! We are forever grateful :)

highly recommend her!

ills from our video that our photographer wasn't able to capture, which really helped us to be able to remember our day. We highly recommend her!
