MPA Weddings

eo to make it so special. As a bride on a serious budget, this was my splurge because I really wanted something to remember and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. I've literally watched my highlight video over 50 times (just got it last night) and cant stop smiling! HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY Recommend MPA! Thank you guys so much for everything.

nd Adam because of their amazing pictures on their website. I wanted both posed pictures and artsy, in the moment type pictures, and they were one of the few groups that I looked at that did both well. They were wonderful from the very beginning! I did a lot of my planning through my mom from a far as I got married in the town my parents lived and they worked with me seamlessly! They were even amazing with my now husband who is a little camera shy! On the day of the wedding they helped keep everything moving smoothly and the chaos down to a minimum! We were going to try to take some pictures outside, but because it was raining they already had a back up plan in place and it was even better than the outdoor pictures would have been! It was amazing how fast they got our pictures back to us and they were perfect!! They captured every emotion and moment I could have wanted! The highlight video was so special as well! It was set to our favorite song and had just enough memories in it to allow our friends and family who weren't able to make it to get a feel for the day without having to watch the whole thing! If you're thinking about MPA Weddings I highly recommend them because Adam and Mandy are wonderful people and they are fantastic at what they do! They made our day even more special than I could have imagined and have given us memories that we will be able to cherish for years to come!!

:) I can't say enough about how wonderful and easy Mandy and Adam were to work with. They traveled to meet us for a consultation and surprised us by doing a free teaser video! We also spoke several times before the wedding to go over ideas for the video and the moments we wanted to capture. At the wedding itself, they are comfortable, professional, and unobtrusive. (A lot of guests didn't even realize we had a videographer!) You will never feel like you have a camera in your face, or that you're asked to do or focus on things that take away from you day; you'll feel like you're hanging out with friends. I really appreciated the creativity they brought to the highlight video -- it really told the story of the day, from getting ready, to seeing my husband for the first time (they created a really cool scene from a glass elevator ride!), to the ceremony, goofing around, and the party. They also surprised us by choosing a song by a close friend for the music. You will watch the highlight video over and over again and so will your family and guests when you email the link to them! In the full video (which we received just a couple months after the wedding), I loved watching the getting ready scenes, particularly my husband's. We also left messages to each other that were very sweet to see. Watching the ceremony was magical - I am still completely transported back to that day when I watch it. The party and dance scenes were also incredibly fun to watch. I highly recommend having a videographer -- being able to watch the most wonderful day in my life from another perspective has been amazing. And, I can't recommend Mandy and Adam and their work enough -- they are amazing people, fun, creative, and the pride they take in their work shines through. Also -- Adam is a great drummer. :) We met up in NYC to see Adam perform! Have fun and hire MPA Productions!!!

A! We don't live in VA so we hired MPA based on our planner's referral. After a few emails and a phone call we were confident in hiring Mandy and Adam. They answered all of our questions and were great with my many emails. When the time got closer I had a concern about how things would work but they put my mind at ease and made me feel better. They worked wonderfully with my photographers even though they had never met each other prior to the wedding. Mandy and Adam are professional, arrived on time, looked great, and we didn't notice them during the ceremony and reception. They were a great couple to work with and we couldn't be happier with our decision!

day to make sure we cut the cake, and did the toast (big details that get lost day of) Even leading up to big day they were there to whenever we needed them! Day of, we never felt like our time was spent taking pictures and away from our family and friends and celebration. They were never in the way, but still captured everything and more. They captured the essence and us and our wedding in the pictures and video. Their attention to detail is impeccable. I highly recommend Adam and Mandy for any of your photography or video needs. The time editing our pictures and video was quick and we always know we are being taken care of like family.

f our photo shoots. You could tell that Mandy and Adam both wanted to be there and are not people who "just show up," they take a lot of pride in their work! They are a pleasure to work with, they listened to all of our ideas and made it happen. Their experience also brought ideas that we didn't even think about which made our pictures and video that much better. The pictures and videos are incredible! I would recommend MPA for any of your wedding needs.

ot and had everything laid out for us. It was a littl chilly outside but Mandy and Adam kept us laughing through the whole thing and our smiles were genuine. The photos came back quickly to us and were beautiful! Everyone loved the ideas they put out for pictures and the ones we suggested for poses. Lots of compliments! I also used MPA for my bridal portraits. We did a sunrise photo shoot in downtown Roanoke, VA. They were already there when we arrived and ready to shoot! I felt silly standing by myself but they reassured me that I looked great. We moved around roanoke proficiently with their assistance and they took a lot of pictures! Once again, I received the photos quickly and was amazed by how great they made me look. That morning, my hair wasn't looking very good and my curls were falling out. Mandy reassured me that the camera will make it less noticeable and she was right! My hair looked great in the pictures. Mandy and Adam did out pictures for our wedding day. We haven't received them back yet but know they are going to be beautiful. I had asked ahead of time that we don't spend too long after the ceremony taking pictures because I would be ready to get to the reception. They honored my request and still took a multitude of pictures with many different poses. They also took a lot of shots for the video. I am so excite to see what it looks like. I have seen a lot of their videos online and every one of them is beautifully done. It's nothing I have ever seen before. In all, I 100% recommend Mandy and Adam. Between their professionalism, photography/videography skills, and personalities they are the complete package! We will definitely be using them in the future!

ur day with friends and family who were not able to attend. We were blessed to have such a wonderful team share our day and capture so many beautiful moments. We couldn't have asked for a better experience.

pensive SLRs. Once I fell in love with their work, I was afraid they would be out of our budget, but they were very reasonable. And the cherry on the top is that they are very sweet and nice people, a pleasure to have at our wedding. They were very service oriented, "can do" attitude, and very unobtrusive, which is very hard to do at an outdoor wedding with nothing to hide behind, but they managed to stay behind the scenes. We had some rain, and I wouldn't have blamed them for cutting the footage short - I myself have had camera damage from rain, but they silently just put rain gear over their equipment and kept going. I've seen so many wedding vendors that are burnt out and don't care - this is a company that really cares about creating art.

e wedding process. Mandy and Adam were awesome to work with because they were very calm and chill during our time together and were great with our guests. Almost a year later, people still tell me how much they enjoy watching our highlight reel. I have felt very confident in recommending them to friends and feel they were/are worth every penny. A wedding video produced at their caliber is truly timeless.

their services to anyone who wants amazing photos!

to finish and even still several months after the wedding. They were so nice and professional and answered any questions I had in such short time. The pictures were wonderful and thay had so many great ideas. They also worked with some ideas that Paul and I had in mind for pictures.

es 12-18 months. However, I have little doubt that it will be fantastic based off of their portfolio. Mandy who was the primary contact through email was very efficient and helpful with her responses.

r how they were able to capture the entire feeling of our wedding. We were completely blown away and can't say enough good things. The editing, special moments they caught, style of shots, transitions from each section of the day into night, syncs to the song, how they captured our exit... everything was just GORGEOUS. They truly captured and took us back to the best day of our lives. MPA you rock! We love you guys and can't thank you enough.

waste of money. We can just have someone video tape stuff we want." She agreed. Almost 2 years later, a friend of mine got married a few months before us and her sister (also her matron of honor) was just going on and on about how great they were. Well it didn't take long when I saw their wedding video for me to realize "We have to have them for the wedding!!!!” In the craziness of the wedding planning I was unsure about spending more money so close to the wedding. After watching videos on their website, and crying (and it wasn’t even people I knew), I realized this was a work of art and a lasting memory of such a special day that will be over in a flash. Adam was diligent to keep up contact me and made me a deal I couldn’t refuse. So, a week before the wedding he pulled everything together for me with ease (or so he made it seem). The videographer was awesome! He was so good you almost didn't even notice he was in the midst of all the madness of our bridal cabin. At the reception I tried to get him to take a break and eat, but he nicely refused and kept on working. He was even nice enough to show us sneak peaks of some of the footage to get us excited, which we just loved. It only took 3 weeks to get the greatest email, "I am excited to share with you your highlight video reel. I hope you like it as much as we do." Since then, my mom and I have literally watched it over and over and over, we can't stop! My parents have friends who said they have watched it over 10, 15, 20 times...One even told me that everyone at her work has seen it and they just love it. Even our 4 year old flower girl watches it on repeat and her mom tells me she sings the video song all the time. We have had just the most wonderful comments about it from people. The song choice for our video was PERFECT. The video represented everything our wedding was about, and who we are. They captured our day Beautifully! I could not have been happier or more excited about it. I know what it’s like to be a bride, so I hope I can help another bride out.. MAKE SURE YOU BOOK THEM FOR YOUR WEDDING!!!! I am saying, if it comes down to budget being the deciding factor; choose this over flowers, programs, 20 more people on the guest lists... because there is nothing that is worth more than having such a unique lasting memory of your wedding!! It didn't hit me until I realized how much I wanted this, that as the bride you plan every detail... but you are the last one down the aisle and the first one back out.. YOU DONT GET TO SEE IT ANY OF IT!! There is something so indescribable about getting to see the look on the groom's face just hours before he becomes your husband. And again, something you are not allowed to see. Yes, I am sure there are other options for ways to have your wedding festivities videotaped for memories, but it isn't even comparable to what they can do with it !!!!! Happy Planning and don't regret not having this precious piece of memories from your wedding day!

. That day was so magical and they portrayed it that way. I was blown away by the movie-like quality and the amazing little custom moments in the highlight reel. Adam and Mandy were so sweet and made you feel completely comfortable and at ease which makes your wedding video that much more dynamic. They take your day and amplify it into a beautiful memory. When I showed my new husband our highlight reel, he even started to CRY!!! When we were opening wedding gifts we came across a little bag with a bottle of wine. It was a thank you note from Adam and Mandy!!! HOW SWEET! Tell me of a vendor that sends a thank you note to YOU!? I could not imagine finding a better video production company for my wedding. They went about and beyond my expectations. Just when you think your perfect day is over and your back from your honeymoon, you get your highlight reel from Adam and Mandy and it takes you right back to those wonderful moments. I am absolutely confident in saying Adam and Mandy definitely contributed to September 22, 2012 being the best day of my entire life. And even better? They got it all on film... You MUST use them for your wedding. No question.

y don't know if they ever took a break. Every time I turned around at least one of them was on site snapping away. I find myself lost for words that adequately describe the outstanding service they provided. Stop wasting anymore time trying to find the perfect photographers...Adam and Mandy are the ones you are looking for! RichardN

at we had. The day of the wedding they were on time, dressed for the occasion, acted professionally, had professional equipment and conducted themselves as they had promised they would. Adam and Mandy both have great personalities and awesome senses of humor which made everything go smoothly on our wedding day. They have a natural ability to be in the right place at the right time to get the best shots possible. We would highly recommend them to anyone and should the need arise for a professional photographer, Adam and Mandy at MPA productions will be our first and only call.

in less than 3 months. We knew we needed to budget money for a photographer but everyone we had researched was more than we could afford. Mandy was so friendly and REAL. She seemed genuinely interested in our day and never pressured us to book them, she was just so happy to meet us. After we met her we had meetings with several other photographers but we just kept coming back to MPA Weddings. On the day of our deadline to pick a photographer, we got an email from Mandy and Adam and realized that was the sign we were waiting for to book them. They were so good to keep up with us via email sending us sample photography, sample wedding day itineraries, being 100% open to the ideas we brought them and making sure we knew we could contact them at any time. On the day of the wedding they were at the venue and taking pictures before I even knew they had arrived. They knew the ideas I had and implemented them without needing to be given direction and were entirely go with the flow. Of course our itinerary ended up going out the window and they just went with it. Having two photographers made a world of difference. They were able to get photograph angles that only one photographer wouldn't be able to achieve and of course they could be in multiple places at one time. On my first day back at work a friend said he thought the paparazzi was there because every time he turned around there was a photographer! Mandy and Adam got beautiful posed photos and amazing candids. After the wedding we still got great customer service. They kept in touch letting us know where they were in the editing process and instead of making us wait until they were entirely finished with our pictures to see them, they would send us sneak peaks regularly. When they did finish our photos we met and had a lovely surprise of extra pictures they didn't send us in the sneak peaks. Even now we still hear from them! I enthusiastically recommend MPA Weddings as your wedding photographer. They made it possible for us to come in under budget for our photography but you would never know from the first-class customer service they provided and the beauty of the photographs they took. For what you invest and what you receive you won't be able to believe you even considered using another company. You WON'T be disappointed and you WILL make new friends in the process! We love you Mandy and Adam!!! ~Jori and Travis, married 5/19/12

d even happened?? The pictures. And, I will say that everytime I look at one of my MPA photos, I smile :) The day was so crazy. To have two people who are so calm, confident, funny, and assertive at some of the most intense moments I've experienced so far was priceless. Mandy and Adam are more than just photographers, they are friends helping you to fully capture and document one of the most special days of your life. I felt even more comfortable when they were around. Their encouraging words coming from seeing many brides before me, they're quick jokes to keep your present, was so appreciated!! The proof of their work is really in their videos and photos. They are an extra sets of eyes capturing all the details that as a bride may not even know you missed, until you see a floral bouquet on a corner table, your shoes with a coozie, all the fun details know one thought to take a picture of- but we worked so hard to make sure they were there! I can't say enough how much fun I had working with Mandy and Adam, I also can't recommend enough MPA Weddings!!

were so professional and fun, and we genuinely enjoyed having them at our wedding, beyond the fact that they were filming it! Afterwards, they edited together our video and it was like straight out of our heads...they knew our vibe, our music taste, the moments that were important to us, and captured it all in this beautiful video. Can't say enough about these guys...so happy we went with them!!

ing cameras on us all day and being uncomfortable--BUT that wasn't the case. I hardly noticed that Adam and Mandy were around. They captured every moment our wedding! Then they took it and made a PERFECT video for us. They got to know us and did everything in their power to make their work match our personalities and values. When we watched it, our hearts melted. They conveyed the exact feeling of our special night through their art. Powerful stuff- and they are the best of the best. We love Adam and Mandy! I know most people dont care about who they get to do the job as long as it's done right, but the last thing I must say is that these two are WONDERFUL people. This was apparent after spending just a small amount of time with them. They are down-to-earth gems of our society. It meant a ton to have them their with us. BOOK THEM!

usband a surprise "Love Story' to be played at our wedding. They came to film us that Thursday (wedding on Saturday). We had the best time! It was almost as if we had our friends over to talk about our story, and have them tape us!! With some secretive behind the scenes filming and planning, we were able to complete the filming without my husband knowing the exact purpose of the film. He thought it was for our final video. At the wedding during dinner our Love Story plays. It was amazing. I have never seen a room of my family and friends so quiet, so attentive and in such awe. It was the hit of the wedding .... people are still saying to me ...the venue was beautiful,the food was great, you were beautiful, that Love Story was amazing! I don't know how they were able to cut, edit and put together such an amazing video in such little time. It takes a true dynamic duo to do what they did at all, and in such a short amount of time (filmed, edit and aired in 1 1/2 days). On Saturday, Mandy & Adam showed up right on time to film me getting ready. It was like seeing old friends again!!! It was great having a team of 2, Adam was able to capture footage of my husband that I would not have been able to see and vice versa for my husband. We were getting ready for our 'first look' and when I was about to walk out I got really emotional, and Mandy was there to offer an encouraging smile. They were with us the entire shoot of pictures, capturing their footage in a subtle way, knowing they were there, but feeling like they weren't. The team worked AMAZING with our team of photographers, wedding planner, event staff .. everyone! We continued on to the wedding venue where Adam and Mandy felt right at home and captured all the moments of the wedding. It was amazing to have them there. I have not gotten my final footage of the wedding (we only got married two weeks ago) but having seen what they were able to do in 1 1/2 days, makes me more excited for this video than anything else. I have the most confidence in the world in this team. Thank you for all that you have done so far. You are both exceptional people with an amazing talent. You made our day so extra amazing and gave us such an amazing gift with the love story video. It saddens my that we won't be able to talk and hang out like we did the week of the wedding, but I truly feel like I found great friends in Adam and Mandy. I recommend this team 1,000,000%. I would tell any of my friends and family to use them. They are kind, professional, and wonderful to be around. Any event in our life that needs to be captured, this is the team that I will have do so. Our love story was such a hit at the wedding, that when the head of our staffing company found out that they did all of that in 1 1/2 days, he asked for their card because he was in complete amazement. If you film a love story, and get really sappy ... listen for Mandy sniffling in the background after filming cuts, shes super cute like that =) A million times thank you to you both. We can't wait to see the final video, and all of the footage that you filmed. Anything that went on at the wedding that we didn't see, we know for sure that you captured. Love, Nicole & Lukas

dding. Adam and Mandy were so fun to work with and made the experience a breeze--I never felt awkward having them around. They were great to work with and really wanted your input/feedback to ensure you were getting the shots you wanted. Honestly, after the wedding my husband and I/family couldn't stop talking about how much we loved having them there and how glad we were we were able to meet them/have them capture our wedding. I would without a doubt recommend MPA Productions!
