McKenzie Miller Films

und yourself with vendors you trust because you spend a lot of time with them during your wedding. Now that I am on the other side of it - I completely agree and I can tell you that I was SO happy to have Mckenzie there. She was calm, happy and un-intrusive. She captured each moment, so pure and in the moment! We had guests who didn't even realize we had the weekend filmed. We just got our teaser film and cannot stop watching it. My parents said it was the best money they have ever spent. Mckenzie - thank you and the team for capturing our weekend so perfectly!

favorite parts from getting ready, the ceremony, speeches and the dance floor into a short 3 minute film and a longer 15 minute version. We can't watch them without crying because they so perfectly capture the emotion from the day. We are so happy that we chose McKenzie and her team to film our wedding and will treasure the videos for years to come!

stead of a special, intimate life event. But at the same time, we wanted high quality video of one of the most important day of our lives. Eventually, we decided to go for it. We checked out a couple videographer options our Hudson Valley-based wedding planner suggested. They were 25% less than what we ultimately paid with McKenzie Miller Films, but the quality left us feeling like it wasn’t worth the price. Then, we reached out to our photographer for a suggestion, knowing it was important that she work well with the videographer on the day of the wedding, too. She suggested McKenzie Miller, whose work we checked out on her website and loved. (We were also happy to see multiple same-sex weddings featured, which was important to us.) We reached out to McKenzie and though she wasn’t available herself, her team was, so we set up a time to chat. After talking with McKenzie on the phone, we were confident her team’s approach to wedding videography was what we were looking for. She seemed laidback and not interested in staging anything, just capturing the beauty, love, and happiness of the day. She sent us two links to videos her team—Jon and Mike—had done and they looked great. After reviewing and requesting changes to the contract—which McKenzie was easy to work with on and very patient since we had a lawyer in the family going over it—we signed on the dotted line. About a month before the wedding, McKenzie connected us with Jon and sent us a detailed questionnaire to fill out. When we spoke with Jon on the phone, it was clear he’d reviewed it in depth and had helpful follow-up questions that would help him navigate the day. He was easygoing, but in control and we were confident going into the wedding. The day of the wedding, Mike and Jon were a bit late, but we were running behind on hair and makeup too so it didn’t matter much. They quickly captured some of our final hair and makeup touches before getting exterior shots of the house we were getting dressed at; detail shots of bouquets, shoes, invitation, dresses, etc.; and strategizing with our photographer for the first look. They asked if they could mic us so that they could capture all the audio for the ceremony. After trying with my wife’s dress, it proved to be too challenging. But they were very apologetic and had a back-up plan so they weren’t too worried about the audio (or if they were, we thankfully couldn’t tell). It was really no extra work on us to have them there. Even during the reception and ceremony, we don’t recall seeing them in obvious places and they didn’t show up in any photos. They captured everything, but did it impressively discreetly. Less than two months after our wedding, McKenzie emailed us our three-minute highlight reel and it far exceeded our expectations. They managed to capture so much of the day—and the emotions that came with it—in such a tight little package. We posted it on Facebook and got hundreds of comments from people who weren’t even there saying how much it moved them. It was incredible to see how well they put everything together. Ultimately, my wife admitted she was so happy we decided to hire a videographer, and we couldn’t be more grateful that it was McKenzie Miller Films.

I can't say enough good things about McKenzie and her team. On the wedding day itself, I hardly saw them (except when I needed them) but they captured everything I wanted. Her involvement was the most stress free and easy part of our entire wedding planning process and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone. Thank you McKenzie!!

, calm and warm and flexible (this will be explained in more detail below). I felt like she genuinely wanted to be there on my wedding day and actually enjoyed capturing it. Most importantly, her work is amazing. We received everything so quickly. Our teaser video came about 2.5-3 weeks after our wedding and was awesome. McKenzie is so gifted at beautifully capturing the emotions of the day but my husband and I had also wanted her to put some of the fun, dancing moments into the teaser and the full video itself. We knew McKenzie was talented and were confident she could give us the video we were asking for, but, since it was a little outside of her typical video, we did not know what exactly to expect. Well, she totally blew us away with a video that perfectly balanced the emotion of the day and the fun. I am not a very emotional person and I bawled like a baby watching our video. I couldn't believe it was us! She made us look like movie stars. Also, it's worth mentioning that her work is delivered beautifully to you. We opted to have our video placed on USB drives. They came in three beautiful boxes and the USB's themselves are almost a work of art. She does not leave any detail untouched. Please do not hesitate to hire McKenzie. She is absolutely the best!!

ht next to us the whole night. They created a preview video and a full-length film (22min) for us that hi-lighted so many of our family and friends, and beautifully wove together so many of our favorite moments. McKenzie was always incredibly easy to coordinate with - she was really responsive and incredibly professional. They delivered the films really quickly (even faster than promised!) and the final film even arrived in beautiful packaging. I can't recommend working with McKenzie Miller enough!

e never interfered with our day or got involved with a personal moment, and yet managed to capture them all. I would recommend her without any hesitation.

ourse share with our future family. While planning and even before we got engaged I loved watching people's wedding videos. I quickly realized the certain ones stood out. These were the ones where a story was told vs. just a bunch of shots to music. Mckenzie and her team create a brilliant story and give you a view into your special day while bringing just the right pieces (parts of speeches, shots of decor) in along the way. She was beyond a pleasure to work with and I can't stop watching our videos. Bravo Mckenzie Miller and your team!!

just what we were looking for. She is the exact kind of personality you want around you on your wedding day - calm, easy going, confident, flexible, and excited. But that is nothing compared to the end result she delivers (super quick, too!); McKenzie is a master storyteller with an incredible eye. I can go on and on about how thrilled we are to have worked with her for our wedding. As you probably know, after your wedding day, your video and photographs are what you use to relive that amazing day - McKenzie captured the feeling of our entire day through and through. Looking through her work you can clearly see how talented she is. Combine that with the ease with which she works with you, and it's a no brainer - she is the best. THANK YOU MCKENZIE AND TEAM!!

s remember. They captured all of the moments I hoped for and even some that I didn't pay attention to on the day of but am so glad I was able to relive through our video. They are prompt, professional and talented! I would highly recommend McKenzie Miller Films. It was the best decision we made! My husband and I will have these videos to cherish for a lifetime.

g, etc. And third, the quality of her work is top notch! My husband and I were so happy with the results and we received so many compliments from family members. I've watched our wedding film countless times and cry each and every time! She really captured so many special moments. Highly recommend!

ought it could be. As people who usually cringe when we hear our voices on film, we were blown away by how beautiful, special, and true to the day/feel of the wedding. Although wedding videography can be expensive, McKenzie's work if priceless and invaluable. Again, we knew she was good, but the final product far exceeded our expectations and we are just in love with her work. It also doesn't hurt that she is so sweet, nice, and calm (the best vibes you could hope for from wedding vendors). She brought along another person to help shoot and he was professional, nice, lighthearted and talented. We could not recommend her more -- though given her level of talent, she should be booked solid so if you can get her, DO IT.

o anyone!

away by the creativity and beauty of her films. Working with her is even better. McKenzie was a true professional throughout each of our pre-wedding meetings (one over the phone and one in person) and was simply a dream the day of our wedding. McKenzie was a wonderful, supportive presence to have by our side. One of the most incredible things about her, and her second-shooter, was that as the night wore on they were like flies on the wall. Not intrusive at all, but there for every important moment. As someone who wondered if she could be comfortable in front of a camera all day, I felt completely at ease and 100% comfortable with McKenzie. We are already in receipt of our preview film from McKenzie. It is currently, and will forever be, one of my most treasured possessions. McKenzie captured the true essence of our wedding day, with shots of myself, my husband, and my family that showed us as our true selves and in the happiest state we have ever been in. The talent that is demonstrated in our 3 minute preview is extraordinary and we cannot wait for our full film. Book McKenzie!! She is the best!!

ate as possible. I've been to other weddings where the videographer was everywhere and quite a distraction. McKenzie was nothing but discreet, yet she captured every single special moment. Her editing skills are immaculate. Clean and skilled while telling the complete story of the day. Working with her was a pleasure and I would recommend her to any bride and groom.

her almost a year before our wedding and it was well worth since she did not disappoint! Upon first meeting we were blown away by her cool Brooklyn demeanor mixed with her southern charm roots. We meet two more times prior to the wedding over the course of the year as she also shot a LOVE STORY video for us as well. All three videos McKenzie made for us, the Love Story, the Wedding Preview, and Wedding Video, were AMAZING and there is no one else that could have done a better job. We knew we wanted a mix of voice overs, music, action shots, vows, speeches, etc. and she did a perfect job marrying all of these. Her videos really speak for themselves as they are all so romantic and special in their own right and truly are genuine art of your big day. While shooting all our videos McKenzie made us feel comfortable and at ease and towards the end of our wedding, we didn't even notice her and her assistant taking their shoots so there are some remarkable candid’s that were captured! Prior to entering the ballroom after the ceremony we showed the guests our LOVE STORY and everyone was blown away. A few weeks after our honeymoon we received the preview video and we thought McKenzie couldn't top that, we were wrong, our wedding video was top notch as well! Everyone we have shown (which has been SOOO many people because when you use the best you want to show it off) has been blown away and has said this is the best videographer they have ever seen. McKenzie was always attentive at answering emails and was receptive to any comments we had and jumped quickly to make us happy. The cinematic video that she created was far beyond our expectations and we are so grateful to be able to relive our wedding so vividly by watching it over and over. We are so over the moon that we hired McKenzie Miller Films. Wish we had an excuse to use her again.

I still get chills when I watch her work on my wedding. Having a videographer to remember your special day is a must - as well as booking McKenzie. I booked her shortly after my engagement when I saw her website - I had to have her! Her style was perfect, and her video quality is the best in the business. Even though I don't mind being in front of the camera, I was a little concerned that my bridesmaids (who can be shy) would be uncomfortable being filmed all day. But McKenzie and her partner were so candid that my shyest bridesmaid told me she completely forgot that they were there! Nobody felt followed by cameras - but sure enough every important moment, reaction, and the true emotion of the day was captured to it's fullest. That's a PRO for you! McKenzie you are a phenomenal artist. My family has been raving about you and your work since my wedding. I'm privileged to have found you and eternally grateful for the memories you captured so beautifully!

My wife and I knew immediately after meeting McKenzie that she was so very talented and that she shared our concerns and hopes from a wedding video. She was very comforting, friendly, and professional both on all items leading up to the wedding and especially so on day-of. Our hunch to go with her paid off... what came of her capturing our wedding was something that blew us away. Her sneak-peak video was a hit with our friends and family when we shared it with them. We recently received our full video(s) and it was an experience we weren't prepared for. She asked us if we had any background music input and we just let her run with it. She absolutely nailed it. On a lazy weekend afternoone, we quickly ripped open her package, and were brought back to the rush of feelings we experienced. You lose yourself in the moment... with her video we were able to step back and re-live every detail. We then were able to share it over Thanksgiving weekend with our family as a whole and it was nothing short of spectacular to see people's faces light up as they saw themselves celebrating with us. A few tears were shed of course but only because the emotion we worked so hard on representing was perfectly captured by McKenzie. Top to bottom, McKenzie was one of our most trusted and best-executed vendors. The quality of her work stands alone and she is amazing to know and collaborate with along the way. For anyone in the the market for a wedding videographer, she comes with our highest recommendation. Thank you so very much McKenzie!

view video, but I have gotten so many compliments on it I have no doubt our wedding film will be nothing short of an extension of the amazing memories I have from that day! I highly recommend!!

rs we researched and interviewed (and we spoke with MANY), yet her prices were the most reasonable we encountered. She is also incredibly sweet, easygoing and free of ego, which allowed her to get along really well with our photographer. On the day of the wedding, McKenzie showed up on time with an assistant to capture myself and the groom getting ready. Their cameras are so small and unobtrusive that we (and our guests!) hardly even knew they were there, so we were totally blown away when we saw our video preview, which captured the day in amazing detail and quality. We were thoroughly impressed with what she was able to document without getting in our way. I would highly recommend her as a videographer!

our big day beautifully. Since we only worked with her day of, it was so important that she was personable and fun to work with. She always has a big smile on! She was with me all day when we were getting ready and she was absolutely unobtrusive and discreet (even though we loved having her there!) After the ceremony I barely noticed that she and her assistant were there shooting and Im so glad they were. Our video is sheer perfection! We cried when we watched it! McKenzie really captured my husband and I perfectly and we couldn't be happier. McKenzie is an absolute professional and I couldn't be happier we chose her to capture our wedding day!

-on-the wall, which I think worked well (no phony posed shots). She worked very well with my photographer too. It's expensive but worth it. Actually pretty reasonably priced compared to other cinematographers of the same style. I was disappointed that she doesn't do same-day-edits but when the wedding day came, I wouldn't have wanted to stop the party to watch the video anyway.

usness. She helped us customize our video package and really tailored it to our vision. In addition to her talent and professionalism, McKenzie also happens to be really sweet and friendly.

ve, passionate in this field. Watching the video really brought us back to that day, and the way she puts it all together, you really feel you are there, no gimmicks, and absolutely nothing over the top or cheesy. She's great at capturing the personality of the couple and the family/friends, the atmosphere, the very essence of such a special day filled with love.

he essence of the many moments without disrupting in any way, enabled us to enjoy the ceremony and reception. We are so thankful to have chosen McKenzie Miller Videography services.
