Video took 8 weeks to get back, but they were upfront about their timeline from the beginning & the wait was worth it !!! Their personalities were amazing; kind, fun, respectful & you can tell they actually care about you and your big day. They WANT to do a great job and they definitely deliver. You won’t regret booking them!

deciding factor in choosing them and their team to film our wedding video! The attention to detail is displayed so exact to what you envision and the things that are important to you on your big day are important to them as well in making sure that no detail goes missed. I’ve received so many compliments already on our video and we just received it back yesterday! A treasured memory we will never forget and have Mangata Media to thank for that! Highly recommend them!!

Joel and Juliana are the best duo! I hired them very last minute to film my wedding, from the first phone call I knew they were the right fit for me! They are both very passionate ...

about their craft and I enjoyed every minute while working with them. The video of my wedding was everything I hoped for and more. I can’t wait to work with them again. If you are looking for quality video of your special occasion, I recommend you choose Mangata Media, you will love the results!

We are completely blown away by our experience with Joel and Juliana! We were not going to do a video, but had friends that recommended it and so we changed our minds and decided t...

o have one made. Joel and Juliana were both so friendly & professional. We were worried about being in front of a camera but they put our minds at ease and insured that they would lead the way. And they did! On the day of our wedding, we forgot the cameras were even there! They listened to any ideas we may have had and made sure they filmed the moments that were most special to us. We anxiously waited for our video & when we received it, we were speechless! It is so beautiful. Our wedding day seemed like it just flew by and there were moments that were a blur. After watching our video, we were able to relive it & I remember it like it was yesterday. I have all the same emotions watching it as I did that day. Hiring Joel and Juliana to capture our special day was the greatest investment of our whole wedding! We look forward to watching it & showing it to family and friends in the years to come. We would, without a doubt, recommend Joel and Juliana. Their gift is truly a work of art.

Joel & Juliana.. where do I begin! You two were TRUE PROFESSIONALS & MORE! I was given exactly what I asked for. Joel was very easy to talk to and he had great communication every ...

step of the way. I never had to reach out with questions or concerns because he would reach out to me first to keep me informed. Juliana, his wife, was a doll! She and Joel are both so talented. The way the camera would transition from one happy moment to the next kiss, hug, handshake or a laugh - was brilliant. The special little details they captured, the moments I never noticed on my wedding day, until after the footage.. it left me speechless and in happy tears! So many things didnt go according to plan on my wedding day (such as weather and other things) but these videos highlight the silver linings that surrounded us that day in these little moments that were captured on film. I cannot thank you enough! You captured videos that we will cherish and hold close to our hearts forever and ever. You did artwork, and the Sparkman house was your canvas. Beautiful job to you both! Thank you for the gift that keeps on giving!
