Mxbloom Films - Photo & Video

that truly reflected the essence of our day. Each photograph was a work of art, showcasing not only the visual beauty of our wedding but also the emotions and stories behind each moment. The highlight film they created was nothing short of magical, seamlessly weaving together moments of joy, laughter, and love into a cinematic masterpiece.

our special day. We’ve watched it countless times, and it’s still as magical as the first viewing! They were such a joy to work with: polite, professional, and incredibly hardworking. Many guests commented on how unobtrusive they were throughout the wedding. If you’re looking for a videographer who combines talent with the utmost respect for your event, look no further.

id not have a wedding coordinator but that did not stop them from getting every shot I wanted. They were efficient and professional and extremely considerate of delays and timelines needing to be adjusted. They rolled with every punch (and believe me there were a lot of things that went wrong on my wedding day that were completely out of everyone's hands) and were extremely comforting when things were going wrong and we needed to adjust. They set very clear expectations with each other and with me and I really appreciated knowing how much time we needed for different shots and how flexible they were throughout the whole process. I would not change anything. They were everything I needed on that day and more. I could not have asked for better photographers to capture such an important day.

ing were invaluable. The complimentary engagement session was a delightful way to get to know Fiona and Neil, who were on time and creative in their approach. On the wedding day, their patience and dedication ensured every moment was perfectly captured, and the livestream was executed flawlessly thanks to Neil’s meticulous preparation. We received our photos and highlight film quickly and were deeply moved by the final result. MXBloom’s involvement made our wedding day truly special!

usually very comfortable being in front of a camera but Neil made it feel so natural. We understand how long it takes to edit photos and we were blown away with how many sneak peak photos Neil sent to us just two days later! I cannot thank Neil enough for everything that he did to make the wedding day so special and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone!!

ur wedding day. We had scheduled photography as well as videography. Their thorough approach and attention to detail showed through in the final product. The way they artfully stitched together the audio and clips from the wedding day was incredible and we couldn't be happier with the photos as well. 10/10 recommend!

th a photography package (+ engagement session), which we thought was well worth it. For our engagement session, they met us bright and early at UW to avoid the crowds during cherry blossom season. And for our wedding, Neil was there the whole eight hours and captured some wonderful moments :) Overall, a great experience!

ier than originally planned to ensure there was enough time to capture the details and getting ready photos. Throughout the day, they did a wonderful job of somehow being everywhere we needed, but never in the way. As someone who generally is shy in front of the camera, they made me very comfortable and are clearly true professionals. I'm loving our sneak peek photos & can't wait to see the rest, along with the videography! I'd definitely recommend working with MXBloom. Thank you for providing such a wonderful experience for us on our big day!!

our power couple duo that provided both photography & videography services. Back in fall of 2022, they did our engagement shoot. We originally weren’t that interested in doing one, but that was one of the best decisions because it allowed us to interact with Fiona (& Neil) before our big day. She directed us, captured our moments beautifully, and was so fun to work with. On our big day, Neil & Fiona were a rockstar team! They were professional, polite, AND also so much fun to have around! What I found particularly striking was their ability to capture the candid and posed moments throughout the day, without us feeling like we had to break from “being in the moment” (if that makes sense.) You could tell throughout the entire time, they were both “on” and trying to identify all the amazing, key moments to photograph/video. There were several times we had to shift our timeline during the wedding, and they were both very responsive and accommodating to those changes. They worked so well with our DJ/MC Alan (which by the way, is such an important aspect - vendors being able to work together like one team.) Their service and value provided was worth every cent. And given our wedding was a blending of our Asian (Chinese/Vietnamese) heritage and Western upbringing, we felt Fiona & Neil were the PERFECT people to document our big day. It was also such a touching moment seeing how my parents, who speak Chinese Mandarin, were able to make conversation with Neil & Fiona. Oh, one other mind-blowing fact. Fiona was about 7.5 months pregnant when she was working on our wedding day. Yet, the way she carried herself and energy she brought, you couldn’t tell she was pregnant at all! A superwoman! If you’re planning on having a wedding (or any other life milestones). If you’re planning on finding ONE company that does both photography & videography (which I highly recommend). If you’re planning on having a highly talented, professional team document your big day - hire MXBloom. Also, if you’re planning on having an Asian/Asian-leaning wedding, Neil & Fiona are the choice for you. This review has been written during the time prior to receiving our photos & videos, and we cannot wait to see when we receive them.

He was professional, kind, easy to work with, and punctual. I would recommend him to anyone! Thanks again for everything!

graphy and videography with an engagement session. They are a beautiful husband and wife duo, and we even got to meet their daughter at our engagement shoot. We chose to have our engagement session at The Quad in Seattle, which is famous for their cherry blossoms and draws a regular crowd, but they did an amazing job with their editing and camera angles to make us feel like we were the only ones there! As for our wedding ceremony, Neil and Fiona got to shoot at TreeHouse Point I believe for the first time, so we were impressed with what they produced since it was their first time there and they were not allowed on the property beforehand to map it out. My family unfortunately acted up a little on the big day which was upsetting to me, but Neil and Fiona did an outstanding job capturing all the moments that were seemingly overshadowed by negative family members and made me fall in love with my wedding day. If I didn't have the highlight film they made, I honestly would still be mourning some of the happenings that day, but the film turned out to be so beautiful and moving I still get teary eyed watching it! I'd also really like to thank them for capturing my father walking me down the aisle, he has dementia and braved flying all the way out here for my big day. This video helps to ground him when he forgets things, and is more than just a wedding reel for my family. God bless the both of you, thank you for everything! Here is a link to our highlight film for those who wish to see a sample of their work: https://youtu.be/Qgg_QJ70KGU

were very discreet, polite, and professional. There were a few hiccups though that are unfortunately worth noting. We paid for 3 shooters (1 photo, 1 video, 1 hybrid) unfortunately the 3rd shooter got covid and couldn’t attend which we totally understood. However, Neil and Fiona did not have a back up and insisted that there would be absolutely no change in coverage of our day. This feels disingenuous as it’s pretty obvious that 1/3 less shooters will absolutely affect coverage in terms of angles and moments captured, and overall photo count. They ended up offering $185 back of our $3700 total, which felt like a complete blow-off for losing an entire shooter. There were a few moments on our wedding day that were not captured, that perhaps a 3rd shooter would have aided. For example, I don’t have a single photo or video shot of my husband during his first look at me – which is the whole point of a first look. We had 30 full minutes dedicated to our first look, and Neil and Fiona arrived early to prepare, so I’m still a bit confused and disappointed that this somehow wasn’t covered. I had asked to provide a shot list, but Neil said they didn’t work like that and preferred more organic photos. I totally understood so we planned to have champagne and walk the beach with our wedding party while they took photos. Instead, they took us through many awkward posed photos, like uncomfortable jumping pics, that we weren’t big fans of. We did not get any organic pics of us walking the beach drinking champagne. We also had in our contract “unlimited and individually retouched photographs with print rights” but we received less than 20% of the photos. They offered to sell us the remaining photos, without print rights, for another $700 that we just didn’t have in budget. We even offered to not post or print or use the photos in any way, we really just wanted to see them all and relive the day, but they refused. We are still pretty disappointed that we will never be able to see all of our wedding photos and feel a bit misled in this regard, as their “unlimited” package was one of the reasons we chose them. We received around 400 of the over 2100 photos. Again, we really love the photos that we did receive, and we hope this helps future couples gain more clarity earlier on in the process to avoid mismanaged expectations and disappointment.

d an absolute pleasure to work with. They will definitely be a great addition to your team and will help the wedding day go smoothly. We loved how everything turned out and we would highly recommend them!

onsiderate, and make the process from booking all the way to getting the images easy and a delight. The quality of their work, creativity and eye for details ensures that their clients and every detail of their wedding day shines in their work. Making for a visually stunning wedding day love story.

s handing my wedding dress in a tree and capturing the rings in the bridal bouquet. Additionally, they were pretty quick to give a sneak peek at some of the photographs and then released the rest on a website that was easy to share with friends and family. Finally, I can't thank them enough for ensuring my family, who couldn't make it for health reasons, was captured on screen and adding personalized artistic elements to bring the atmosphere alive in the photographs. I've had multiple friends/family tell me that these were some of the best wedding pictures they've seen, and I can't emphasize enough how valuable they were without being overly expensive. Neil and Fiona are both fantastic with the highest level of detail. I honestly couldn't recommend them enough if you want to make sure the essence of your wedding is documented and will make sure you and your guests look AMAZING!

:)

our wedding day (Seattle weather) and it stopped raining for about an hour or two, Fiona and Neil were so considerate about our ask to get some pictures outdoors. The photos and videos are amazing!!! Would definitely recommend them for your special occasions!

location and time zone difference, Neil was still very reachable and wonderful to work with. He got us our sneak peek photos a week earlier than expected, and we are so happy with the pictures and can’t wait to see the rest of them. I also had a family tragedy a few days before the wedding and Neil was so understanding and able to help keep me in a positive mood and helped me get pictures to honor the family member we lost. Neil was even able to quickly adjust his services to accommodate my needs and calm me down when I was anxious leading up to the wedding day. Overall, incredibly pleased with Neil and would definitely recommend him to other couples! We had a very small wedding, so we only worked with Neil, but I’m sure if everyone else at MX Bloom is as great as him, then they’re also wonderful. 10/10!

new what shots to take without being told. Also, you would think that they will get in your way throughout the day, but I honestly forgot that they were there.  Neil and Fiona have a great vision for spots to take pictures and have them turn out very well. With that being said, the pictures they have captured during the ceremony and reception are completely organic and were not staged which makes it more memorable. We love the fact that we can relive the moments through the shots they have taken.

sed high quality audio gear to compliment the video, we really thought our wedding came straight out of a movie. The reception topped off their work, Neil did not miss a beat with video, and when we requested a photo with all of our tables Fiona was right there capturing each important moment with our family. I would recommend MXBloom Films to anyone that wants to capture a perfect once in a lifetime moment and be able to revisit that special moment anytime they want in photo and in video.

d us find our widest smiles in front of the camera. It's clear they went the extra mile to help us take stunning photos and footage despite the rainy Oct weather. Our wedding photos are absolutely stunning; and Fiona kept the most moving bits of our wedding vows for the video which is now an amazing memory keepsake.

piers, staircases, and a really great city view. Neil was also easy to work with on our hectic wedding day. Despite time constraints, we found time to get all the photos we wanted (with parents, wedding party, bouquet toss, etc). We were also able to add video to our wedding photography package last minute. All in all great value and very happy with the results.

s for our wedding weekend. We are so grateful for their help!

cially with our wedding, which was more of a DIY project than a traditional church wedding, they were able to adapt and find all the best angles. They have very good communication with us and were very professional in all that they did. I have no complaints at all with Neil and Fiona and would 100% recommend their services to anyone. You are in good hands with these two and we cannot say thank you enough!

us, we did not feel awkward, they encourage us to just be ourselves and just have them capture our natural expressions and emotions. Our pictures came back so beautiful, I cannot thank them enough. Do not hesitate to reach out to them and ask questions, they have great suggestions of venues, outfits etc. They really are the best!

is day. Thank you so much!

ages!). He was also willing to stay beyond the agreed-upon time, so thanks for that. I also really appreciated that he gave me confidence and helped calm my nerves in the hour leading up to the proposal haha! He also had some great ideas for poses and photos. Overall, extremely positive experience and would highly recommend! :)

rking with us on any feedback we have. We were so happy with our beautiful tea ceremony photos from our summer engagement that we decided to book Neil again for our spring wedding tea ceremony. Thank you Neil for our beautiful photos, we will cherish forever!

it!!! OMG BEST STORYTELLERS EVER!!! Y'all are in a league of your own!!

ily and friends, and with a beautiful eye for our ceremony, which was not typical. Their photos reflect a true artistic point of view, the framing is gorgeous and they caught so much emotion and expression in people in their candid photos. We also loved the ability of the two of them to capture both wide and telephoto angles of the same moments, giving us a full range of impressions of these unforgettable scenes. I was very happy with the color and contrast in their editing as well! On top of all of their skills they are just beautiful people, very discreet, kind and loving. I never felt that they were in the way or pushing their ideas onto us. My husband is a photographer and he was very impressed by the composition of their photography and their ability to capture moments and tell stories in such detail. We highly recommend this team for any event that you want to remember as if you were there, in living color.

trees, knee deep in water and laying down in all sorts of positions... all helped to create photos we could only dream of. His skills and professionalism were matched only by his fun personality to be around on our special day. Many of our guests also commented on how fantastic he was both on the night and when they saw the photos. Neil, we can't thank you enough for capturing our special day. We are loving the prints for our home and the album just blows us and our friends away every time we look at it.

hat you were filming at our engagement shot . It was fun to see ourselves in that moment before we really dove into all the wedding details. In all the videos you really captured the beauty of the day. Thank you so much for capturing us and giving us this gift.

have been more happy with the process and the end result.  Neil was incredibly responsive and thorough as we planned through all the details via email/phone and made our wedding day absolutely seamless.  Their team was at the venue early and had already captured so much before we even had to ask for anything.  We had given them a list of photos in advance to make sure we didn't miss anything and they delivered with those and so much more.   I work in luxury hospitality and would recommend them to anyone in the Washington area that is looking for quality photography and film to capture the emotions of your event/wedding/family.  We hardly noticed they were recording the most memorable moments.  After the final product was presented we even asked for a few small tweaks and they did so graciously, timely and presented us with beautiful videos and photos.  Passionate, remarkable, and meticulous... thank you MXBlooms for memorializing our special day in perfect fashion.

r one another!!!

k with them. And they really catched our requirements after we talked about what we wished to have! We're glad that we chose them! Thank you so much for helping us to leave this greatest memory of our life!

of the fairytale wedding !! Sending all my love.

and easy to work with. During the wedding itself, he blended into the background but was there to capture all of our special moments. Most importantly, we were so happy with how the video turned out! I would highly recommend Neil.

st me, you all have made a big impact on us too. :-)

all the details that we want they to record. And they captured every single item on our list. Their products are high quality and very natural, which we love a lot. My parents watched the highlight film at least 100 times in a week grin They even invited two of their photographer friends to our wedding. So we were so lucky to have 2 photographers and 2 videographers!!! They did an amazing job! We also had them help us with our engagement photos. In order to pick a nice weather day, they were very flexible. We even went to two different locations. And they were very patient and stayed a lot longer than we thought.

se someone who is turstworthy (definately, Neil and Fiona are the best choice, if you have talk to them, you will know~~~) They are responsible adn professional for every details of your engagement and wedding. They will do lots of preparations before they give you the photo. I think maybe they also value the meaningful moments. They really love their jobs.( after you talk to them, you will know ,) Just contact them if you want to have a meaningful wedding story and they can help you capture each moment of wonderful memories.
