Montage Media Films

on the day, and holy moly, the final product!!! Truly amazing!!! Worth every pennyyyy! Thank you again so much for everything!!! I will be raving about you and montage media until the day I die!!! Thank you for allowing us to be able to relive our day forever!

magic he can work behind the scenes of the camera. I was so glad that we hired him to capture our wedding day, while photos are great - he really did make the day come to life through his exceptional video skills and storytelling. 150% recommend them! Even if you're on the fence about hiring a videographer - don't be, and don't look any further; Jeff is your guy!

nd for our day and left us with the most beautiful film to last us forever!

make sure I had booked! I literally planned my wedding around them because wedding videography literally does NOT get better than what they offer! I could not be more happy with our videos. The quality is unbelievable. Jeff captured every special moment of our day and even moments I forget happened! They go above and beyond for their clients and are passionate about their craft.

heir work is breathtaking! Myself, husband, wedding party, and guests felt so comfortable and special working with them. They are professional and truly experts at their craft. We received our videos back in excellent time, a month from the wedding. We will cherish our videos for the rest of our lives. Thank you Montage Media.

.) but they were able to capture those moments in such a noninvasive way - we truly forgot they were there (in the best way possible!) Everything from the sneak peek to the highlight video to the ceremony coverage was executed perfectly. They picked up on aspects of the wedding that may have been unnoticed by some but that were most important to us and ensured they were incorporated into the video. We can’t thank them enough for creating a keepsake that we will watch for the rest of our lives. I will say it a million times over, find a way to get Montage Media at your wedding - you won’t regret it!

preferences and answer all our questions so we felt prepared heading into the big day. He worked seamlessly with our photographer and made sure we were comfortable with being on camera when we recited our private vows. Although we only hired Jeff, he was able to set up multiple camera angles for our ceremony and speeches so that it captured all reactions and incorporated the different viewpoints into our video. His drone footage was incredible and really made the video feel high quality. Overall, I'd say Jeff was extremely pleasant to work with and really showed that he cares about what he does. The final video was everything that we hoped for! We've watched it on a loop ever since receiving it, and it really is so special. Big thanks for Jeff and Montage media!

my sister's video a few years back, and are a ton of fun to be around!! They flew all the way to Colorado to film our ski wedding. We had to change the plan due to weather and they jumped on board and had everything under control to video the day before the actual wedding. They were so enthusiastic and had a plan for the last second skiing. The day of the wedding they were there to help in ways beyond what a videographer would normally do and along with our photographer kept a chaotic day running smoothly! They had both our sneak peak and actual video ready extremely quickly. Both brought us to tears and allowed us to relive the entire day over and over. They are incredible at capturing the emotion of your day and put it all together perfectly in their videos. I would 100% recommend Montage Media to anyone getting married or doing an event - they are the absolute best at what they do and we couldn't be more grateful for the work that they did for us!

all the happiness and love. This was the best experience and we highly recommend Montage Media!

nalism were on full display throughout the process, and he was very easy to work with. The final product was a series of videos that we will cherish forever.

r wedding who had the chance to talk to Jeff also had nothing but compliments and great things to say about him. He captured our day perfectly!

day - zero awkwardness and pure fun. When it comes to their work, I've never seen a wedding video captured with such quality. Our video literally looks like a motion picture- all of our friends and family members were amazed. They are 10/10 and if I did it all over again, it would be Montage!!!

d truly captured incredible moments. He worked with ease alongside our photographer (Anna from Dan Stewart Photography) and was able to blend in seamlessly with our guests to the point where we didn't even notice him filming at many points. The final products were near film quality and the drone shots over the hotel and Little Traverse Bay were absolutely breathtaking. We certainly would recommend Montage Media Films for anyone with a wedding in Michigan, as we will definitely be rewatching our videos for many, many years to come.

nd beyond to accommodate our requests and make us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Jeff talked with us many times before the big day and help make a plan to capture all the perfect moments from our wedding. His hard work paid off as the footage is AMAZING and beyond what I could have even imagined. I am so obsessed with our wedding film, that I keep watching it over and over again. I feel that the film is one of the most special things I have from the wedding day! I would HIGHLY recommend booking them for your big day!!

ia we were looking for and shaped it into our ideal wedding video. He's also super personable and adds a great vibe to wedding day (: I highly recommend booking Montage Media for your wedding!

lso giving bits of advice that proved to be invaluable. He was never pushy yet made sure we were getting the shots that we were paying him for. Our videos turned out better than we ever could have expected!

red so many amazing clips that I'm so happy to have to look back on. The highlight video turned out STUNNING and my family and my husband & I are obsessed with it. So fun and beautiful and makes me tear up every time. Their videography skills are unmatched! If you have the opportunity to work with them, don't wait!!

to meet with me before the big day to discuss our vision and timeline and the final video was exactly what we hoped for! Professional, high-end, and great people to work with! Highly recommend!

ized, shared his professional opinions and worked with our budget. I am obsessed with the actual footage that we have received from Montage Media Films! It brings us right back to that special day and they truly captured everything into our highlight. I would recommend them 10/10 times to anyone!!

ing all the details of our wedding. We highly recommend Montage Media Films if you are looking for an excellent videographer for your wedding!

ow) husband and I made it easy on him, either -- neither of us are very comfortable in front of a camera; and somehow still, the video they made from our wedding day is STUNNING. If I could do the day over and over again, I'd hire them without hesitation every time. This will be something (probably the #1 thing) that we cherish from a day that always goes by way too fast. I have watched it countless times already -- it will never get old. Jeff and Montage Media -- thank you for making us feel so special, important, and seen on our most important day. You are a truly gifted team.

t have changed a single thing!!! Jeff was so easy to work with, and he collaborated so well with the other vendors, especially our photographers. I couldn’t recommend him more!!

y worth it, but he made the experience for us and our bridal party so fun. He caught moments photography can't and had the best attitude while doing so. We were the type of couple that didn't want anything too cheesy or posed, and he was perfect for this vibe. Also, the turn around was so quick - it was so fun to post our teaser on social media so soon after the wedding! Can't say enough great things about our experience with Montage.

and he was open minded to our vision. Aside from being an excellent videographer, it is very clear that he has been doing this for a long time and is well aware of the nuances of capturing the emotions and experiences of our wedding. To this day we watch our video frequently with a big smile on our faces. Beyond being an amazing ‘vendor’. We enjoyed his company and approachability to the point that we considered them guests at our wedding. Thank you Montage Media Films, 10/10, would definitely hire again for future events.

’t even question it, just book Montage Media now! From start to finish Jeff is amazing to work with! He even helped on the time management and putting together a time frame, since we are a “wait till the last minute” kind of couple. On the day of they were prompt on arrival and worked closely with our photographer to get the picture perfect scenes that you will reflect on and cherish for a life time. Most of the time you don’t even know Jeff and his team are there! They work seamlessly with your vendors and guest to catch all the best shots and when you look back you will be astounded by things you would have never seen without the video! Now the video… where to begin?! If you ever wanted to be an actress or just the “star” of the show Jeff and his team make it a reality! We have been told by our guests and we couldn’t agree more but our wedding video looks like it belongs on the big screen! It even has the whole Hollywood cinematic feel! Believe me when I say you can not go wrong with hiring Montage Media for your big day. So send the message now and get on their books because you won’t regret it for one second!

ake my day run very smoothly. We had some issues with the weather causing me to make a last minute decision of having an indoor or outdoor ceremony and Jeff made me feel so confident with my decision of keeping it outdoor and they captured the fall colors perfectly and the rain held off! Jeff and the team made everyone in my family and wedding party feel so comfortable being captured. They worked with my photographer extremely well, helping her find the best spots to capture everything perfectly. I picked the package that comes with the memory book that displays my wedding on the screen when you open it and my husband and I love it and will cherish it forever. I haven’t seen any other company offer something so special and it was definitely a huge factor as to why we chose Montage Media. Wedding days go extremely fast and with everything going on it can be hard to be in the moment, and having this video of our most special day, captured so well, is something we are eternally greatly for. Do not hesitate to book Montage Media!

e are so grateful we did. We knew from the minute we met Jeff that we were in good hands and going to have the best day. They made my husband and I feel so comfortable on our wedding day, we truly could not recommend them more. Our guests had rave reviews about them and by the end of the day, they felt like part of the family. Jeff and his team had the best recommendations to ensure we got all the shots we wanted. Our wedding recap videos seem like they are out of a movie. The quality is better than anything I have ever seen. Our family and friends are blown away and have commented multiple times about it. The drone shots were incredible and such a nice add-on. Jeff had a sneak peek video within 48 hours for us, UNREAL!!! 

Our wedding videos are the most prized possession from our wedding. Montage Media is worth every penny and we would book them again in a heartbeat! Thank you so much Montage Media!!! K+J

at the video the guys at Montage Media put together for my daughter’s wedding and I knew I had made the right decision choosing them to put together this memory of our family’s special day. My daughter called when she got the video and was crying tears of joy reliving her wedding day (dad may have if shed a few tears of joy again too). I would definitely recommend Montage Media Films to anyone looking for a team to capture their special day on film too. You will definitely not be disappointed and will be able to relive that moment with your family over and over for years to come. Over and above my expectations for sure thank you so much!

oing to have a videographer. But after my parents watching a few of the videos, they decided to bite the bullet and have Montage Media Films do our video. We have know Jeff for a long time and saw the great work he put out, so we knew our video would be great. Not only was it great, it was beyond what we could have asked for. The music, the shots that were chosen, his recommendation that we read each other letters made what we originally thought we couldn't have a dream come true. I cried many times at the wedding because of how overjoyed I was, but the moments that we captured of our big day by their team made it a million times better. Jeff made something that we will treasure in our hearts forever and I couldn't be more grateful that him and his team does this for couples like us. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a videographer and even to people that might be second guessing if it is even worth it. Our video is priceless and we would do it all over again in a heartbeat. Thank you from our family and from James and I. We love our video and are so grateful for all you do. Grateful, thankful and blessed. If anyone is second guessing a wedding video, please do the video. Ours is beyond perfect and priceless. I cant thank Jeff Bass and his team enough. Thank you for being a part of our special day and for the beyond perfect video. We love it so much! ❤️

t have been more wrong! About eight months before the big day, I realized we couldn't miss the opportunity to have our day on film, and started the search for a team. As with all other aspects of our day, I quickly knew I wanted to find a team that could not only capture our day, but could also bring to life the beauty of Leelanau County with drone footage. With recommendations by both our friends (2021 clients of Montage) and our planning team, we were introduced to Jeff and the Montage team and we never looked back!  From our initial conversation, Jeff was so easy to talk to and really could envision out loud everything that was in my head. We talked through what I thought I would want from a video and ideas we had already worked through with our Photographer for the day's events. Jeff was then able to take those and helped us make them even better! It helped so much that his book of work already captured so much of what I was looking for in terms of story and drone footage. Being a Northern Michigan local, he knew exactly how to capture what I was looking for with both scenes from my home as we got ready as well as footage above while we got married on the top of the hill at the Homestead. He even helped us come up with reading our letters aloud to each other during our first look which became such a memorable time for my Husband and I to share our vows, just between us. Then, within only a month, we were gifted our most cherished piece from the day, the final video. It was far more perfect than anything we could have imagined. It was so light and fun, just as our day was, but captured every detail and feeling that was felt on that day. It is how we will always remember this day and we are so grateful for the pure movie magic Jeff and Joe were able to capture. We feel so lucky to have worked with the Montage team and could not thank them enough for creating such a work of art for our day!

for inclement weather and optimized each moment of the day with extraordinary talent and creativity, which added so many gorgeous details to our stunning video. His personality, can-do attitude, and warmth made it a joy to have him part of our day. And the highlight video-- WOW! We are beyond impressed and have watched it dozens of times, always with laughter, tears, and pure delight. Thank you, Jeff, for capturing our day and creating such a treasure for us to share and enjoy in the years to come. We are 1000% happy with our decision to work with Jeff & Montage Media!

gh!!

re so nice, made us feel comfortable, and then for most of the night we didn’t even notice they were there. They got so many awesome shots and didn’t get in the way of our guests dancing the night away. Then when we got our videos we were blown away. My husband finally agreed that a videographer was worth the money. There were so many special moments that we either forgot or didn’t see because the day was so busy. The way he cut everything it is like a feature film. I picked Montage Media before because I found myself getting lost in the wedding videos of people I didn’t know. Now having our own videos produced by them, I feel so special and honored to have such a high quality keepsake of our special day.

o remember for a lifetime. Craig was professional, fun and blended in to the festivities while capturing the wonderful energy and love at the ceremony and reception. If you're looking for the best to capture your special occasion, look no further. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING JOB, I promise you will be thrilled!

creative myself, I was afraid I'd be picky about what was captured or music selected, but Jeff nailed it. They captured details that made the story of our day that much more emotional. It was a stretch for us to financially to pick Montage Media, but I knew they would be worth it and I was totally right. We will cherish these videos so much. I cry and feel way more emotion watching this than looking at my wedding photos. I highly recommend anyone who wants a quality to book them. You will not regret it! They were so kind, cool, and awesome to work with.

eo - it has everything - all of our favorite people, laughs, tears, dancing, and so much more. We were simply speechless watching our video for the first time. It was like reliving the day all over again, except with so many more angles and perspectives. The artistry and production value are SO HIGH, too. The audio is crystal clear, the shots are balanced, framed beautifully, the pacing is exciting and thrilling. I used to work in broadcast production and I can tell you from experience their vision and technical skillsets are extraordinarily rare! Many say they can shoot video but not everyone can craft such a beautiful story. Jeff and his team are true storytellers. Jeff and his second shooter Joe operated seamlessly and unintrusively on the day of the wedding. Jeff was so kind and went out of his way to meet and talk with us during the wedding planning stages to make sure everything went smoothly, and it did. I could go on and on...but my one advice to any new couple? Hire Montage Media ASAP. Our wedding video is priceless to me, and I am so thankful we have this to treasure for the rest of our lives. Thank you, Jeff and Joe!

er such an amazing wedding day, we were pleasantly surprised to receive the teaser the very next day(!!). Even in a 60 second clip, it was evident Craig had listened to every important detail we had shared with him pre-wedding. The final product was out of this world!!! We're so grateful to have had them at our wedding and would absolutely recommend them for your special day!

so much fun. They returned our full video back in just a couple of weeks and it was exceptional and so well done. You will not regret booking them!

our videos back even sooner than expected which was so appreciated! On top of loving the content, Jeff was so personable and amazing to work with. He made my whole bridal party feel so comfortable in front of the camera and got all the best shots. He also worked with me for an extra long day since I really wanted our sparkler send off on film, and surprised my husband and I with a teaser video at the end of the night that they played in front of all our guests that were still there. It was so so special. I could not recommend them more, truly! I would give 6/5 stars if I could. Thank you Jeff and team for everything!!!

ay and the full length video stole our hearts as well! We love watching our videos so much, it’s truly such a special memory from our day!

personal, and unique. Not only are we SUPER happy with the final product, but Jeff was amazing to work with on the big day! He got everyone excited and really knew how to prompt us to get the amazing shots. Also, if you have a venue in a beautiful setting it is key to have Jeff's drone shots to capture the scenery.

e knew going into this that Jeff is an expert and when he had to pivot and get creative when bad weather threw off wedding day plans, his cleverness and experience really showed as he was not phased. In fact, the clips/shots/videos he delivered as the final products were truly spectacular. Lastly, we took advantage of the second shooter option which was extremely worth it. It allowed for so much more flexibility and so much additional footage. Being able to relive the entire wedding day was made possible by Montage and we cannot recommend them enough. Amazing experience.

ding video I still cry. It was right then I decided I would be booking them for my wedding as well, whenever that was going to happen. I've kept their information for three years and they were the first vendor I booked when I found my venue and date. Jeff was amazing. He was prompt, professional, funny, and so fun to work with. He captured some incredible shots and even sent us a sneak peek shot clip less than 24 hours after our wedding. I think he was just as excited about some of his shots as we were. Even the short 60 second clip he sent looked like a cinematic preview for a real movie. I cannot stress this enough, BOOK MONTAGE!

bride, I can say without question that I am so grateful we met Craig. The day went so quickly and he gave us the gift of reliving and enjoying the wedding all over again.
