Novae is unbelievable to work with. The energy Grace & Ben bring to your event and the way they capture it is top knotch. They truly care about your special day. They notice, celeb...
rate, and capture every detail so artistically and perfectly. They are a joy to work with out side of your event as well, very communicative, joyful, and easy to work with. We couldn't say enough great things!
Cannot put into words how thankful we are to have worked with Grace and Ben. They are truly incredible photographers and human beings. Not only did they produce the most beautiful ...
photos and video for us, they helped every single family member and friend feel comfortable in front of the camera, adjusted their timeline to our changing needs, answered our endless questions, coordinated seamlessly with the rest of our wedding vendors, and truly felt like our friends right away! We had so much fun and were able to focus on the day and not worry about a thing because of them. They were extremely thoughtful, responsive, clear, and overall so easy to work with. We last minute decided to add additional nights to include our welcome party and rehearsal dinner and are SO glad we did - they're some of our favorite photos of the weekend. I would recommend them so highly to anyone getting married again and again. Thank you Grace & Ben!
i cannot explain how amazing Grace and Ben were on our wedding day and every day leading up to it!!!! they were fun, professional, gave us all the tips, organized, and are overall ...
incredible human beings. one of the most important things for my wedding day was making sure i was surrounded by people i genuinely enjoyed and we could not have had a better photography & videography team. not to mention, the photos and videos we got were INCREDIBLE and we will cherish those memories for the rest of our lives. hire Grace and Ben for your special day - you will NOT regret it!!!!!:)
Grace was the photographer for my wedding and she was so wonderful! She was organized and such a pleasure to work with. She was so helpful the day of when things got hectic and bro...
ught such a fun and positive attitude. Thank you grace!!
We could not be happier with our decision to work with Grace & Ben for our wedding day photos! From our very first email communication, I knew we were in great hands and would be w...
orking with a team that truly cares about providing the best experience possible to their clients. They were so well organized, and maintained consistent communication & incredible attention to detail throughout the entire process. The day of the wedding, they were an absolute joy to work with and such fun to have around. Even when our timeline was starting to run behind (as they so often do), Grace was composed and calm, making adjustments on the fly, and ensuring we didn't miss a beat! I could not be more grateful for that as it enabled us to stay relaxed knowing our team had everything under control! The photos absolutely blew us away - we could not stop smiling and laughing going through our gallery, it was like reliving the day all over again, and then some seeing all of the different parts of the day and night unfold! They have such a beautiful artistry about the way they photograph and in their editing style, it truly transports you right back into the moment. Seeing how comfortable our guests look in every photo and watching the party get progressively wilder & sillier as the night went on is so much fun and just proves how comfortable Grace & Ben made everybody feel and how seamlessly they blended in. They have a radar for zooming in on those subtle little moments that could easily go unnoticed throughout the day and have such a keen sense for candids. Their ability to capture those raw moments when you think no one is watching are what make working with Novae so special. Thank you Grace & Ben! Can not recommend them enough!!
We were incredibly lucky to have Grace and Ben capture our wedding day. From our initial conversations to final delivery and everything in between, they totally exceeded our expect...
ations. Their attention to detail was impeccable and it’s clear they have a knack for capturing every important moment. Not only are they highly skilled photographers and videographers, but you can tell they absolutely love what they do. Their passion for their work shines through in everything. They effectively balanced accommodating our vision and making suggestions based on their experience, which we really appreciated. Their calm and cool demeanor kept us at ease and made the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. We’re still perplexed how they were able to maintain such a low profile during the ceremony/reception and still capture every important moment. The quality of the final product left us speechless. Grace & Ben managed to tell the story of our wedding day in a way that exceeded our wildest dreams. The wedding film and album will allow us to look back and relive this special day forever. We can't thank them enough for their incredible work and the joy they brought to us on our wedding day. The decision to hire Novae was one of the best we made, and we would wholeheartedly recommend them to any couple searching.
I have known Grace and Ben for about 6 years now, as I'm a wedding vendor! I own Autumn Nomad and have worked with them with not only real weddings, but tons of photoshoots over th...
e years.
One of the absolute best decisions I've ever made was hiring them for our wedding. I've never hired a videographer for anything. Not only did they make you feel so comfortable and not in your face at all, but they're extremely professional and timely. They very much take their job seriously and it shows.
I spoke with Grace the most in the planning stages and she always had so much insight that helped the day flow perfectly.
Once we received our video, I'll tell you - we both could not stop crying. They captured things I didn't even realize happened. Like from all angles of the day. They didn't miss anything. We had the opportunity to relive the day and it was unreal. Absolutely you need to hire video. It's worth the price and you'll have that video footage and hearing speeches and your vows and everything else, forever.
I adore them so much and couldn't recommend them any higher.
My husband and I got married in July of 2023 but knew immediately as we started planning our wedding that we wanted to work with Novae Film and Photo for our photos. We had seen so...
me of their work through our friends and I was immediately in love with the natural style and essence of their photos. Working with Ben and Grace was one of the easiest decisions that we made and we don't regret it for a second! From our engagement photos to the wedding pictures, everything was perfect. They are so easy to communicate with and definitely helped us to feel comfortable while posing and taking the pictures (something I had been really anxious about!). Day of the wedding they were efficient with getting the formal family photos done (which can be a lot!) and took gorgeous photos of the venue, flowers, table settings and other wedding details that we had put together for our special day. When we got our final album it was so fun to look through all of the memories and see the different things they captured. My husband and I loved our portraits so much I immediately printed some to create a gallery wall in our house and everyone who sees them compliments the photos and how artistic they are. Novae Film and Photo is worth every penny so if you’re on the fence - I’d recommend budgeting for them because again, I can’t say one bad word about their work and only a million incredible things! Thank you Grace & Ben!!
We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about working with Grace and Ben! From the moment you book, they treat you like family and spend the time to get to know you as a couple...
and match your vision. On our wedding day, they were so incredibly kind and an absolute dream to work with. They made us feel comfortable and calm, and most of the time we had absolutely no idea they were even there, which allowed us to live in the moments of our wedding day knowing that they were capturing it for us. When they delivered our films, we were truly speechless! They captured our love so authentically and beautifully, and their work truly exceeded our wildest dreams. Our guests still rave about how their work is like an actual movie, and none of us can get over their next level talent. Book with Grace & Ben immediately, I promise you that it will be the best wedding decision you make!!
Grace and Ben were truly such an incredible team to work with and we could not be happier with how our wedding photos and film turned out! From helping us prepare in the months lea...
ding up to our wedding day to ensure every moment - big and small - was captured perfectly, to making us feel SO comfortable throughout the entire day and night of our wedding, Grace and Ben were a dream to work with. Our photographs captured every detail so that even when we look back now, we can re-live those special moments. The video they put together is so beautiful and clear and evokes such wonderful memories of our wedding day!
Grace and Ben are simply THE BEST!!! Look no further if you are wanting a video to put you right back in your feels and make you relive the special moments of an incredible day. Th...
ey care about every single moment, beginning to end. We couldn't have asked for better videographers!
Where to begin?! A videographer was not even on our list of vendors to hire when we started the planning process. After receiving a recommendation to check out Novae, I promptly we...
nt to Instagram and proceeded to cry watching Novae’s highlight videos of other people’s weddings. Grace & Ben capture emotion so beautifully and are absolute experts at what they do. Not only that, but they are both genuine and kind humans which isn’t always easy to find. Adding them to our vendor list very quickly became not just a want, but a need.
We had two years of communication before our wedding day finally arrived and every single time we spoke whether it be via email, phone or text, it was always so easy, enjoyable and stress-free. Grace was my saving grace (pun intended) throughout the pandemic and our postponement. She was so much more than just one of our wedding vendors but became a friend that genuinely cared about us. She provided a listening ear, advice, love, laughs, patience and understanding. In those two years, she was so supportive throughout not just wedding related endeavors, but throughout our own personal journey of back-to-back-to-back losses. Grace’s middle name should be empathy. By the time we finally met in person, it felt like I had already known her for way more than two years.
So many of our guests commented on how hard both Grace & Ben were working on our wedding day. They said they noticed they were everywhere, while simultaneously blending in and being completely in the background - AKA true professionals. They also make you feel so comfortable being on the other side of the lens.
Weddings are an investment and finding someone to capture those memories that can stay with you for a lifetime is absolutely an investment worth making – especially if you choose to work with Novae. I’ve always said Grace & Ben create magic, and it felt so surreal to be on the receiving end of that when our final videos were delivered. I now cry every time I watch our own Novae videos of our own wedding. They captured every emotion and moment so perfectly and watching them truly transports us back in time to the best day of our lives. The joy and love were tangible and getting an opportunity to relive those moments every time we watch our videos is truly a blessing that we cannot wait to share with our future children. And to think, we almost lost out on that had we not included videography in our budget. Ultimately, choosing Grace & Ben as our videographers was without a doubt THE best decision we could have ever made for our wedding day. We are eternally grateful and cannot recommend them enough!!
Oh. My. Gosh. What can we say?! My husband and I are completely blown away by the videos Novae created for us and words simply cannot express just how grateful we are for Ben & Gra...
ce. We have watched all of our videos multiple times and it is truly amazing how we are able to be transported back to the most special weekend of our lives - the emotions, the sounds, the compassionate energy we were surrounded by, the beautiful shots of our venue - just everything!! We're still emotional now even after having had some time to process! Through their incredible talent and amazing ability to relate and tap into our energy, Novae created the most special gift through our films that we will cherish forever and we can easily say that HANDS DOWN hiring Novae was the best decision that we could have made when it came to capturing our wedding weekend. Thank you Ben & Grace, for your kindness, your thoughtfulness, your sincere dedication, and your unbelievable, unmatched talent that captured these intimate memories in the most spectacular, heartfelt way. We will be watching these forever!
Aside from the amazing films they created for us, Grace & Ben are the most wonderful humans to have by your side on your wedding day. From the beginning, they felt more like friends than vendors to us and made us feel so comfortable, appreciated, accepted, and understood through every step of the process, from booking, to our unexpected postponement, to the rehearsal dinner, and wedding day. In fact, we loved working with both of them so much that we were sad to say goodbye when they were done filming our wedding! If you have the opportunity to work with Novae, absolutely do it - you will be so happy that you did.
Grace and Ben were the absolute best! Even though we did not get to meet them prior to our wedding (due to Covid and living out of state) they made us feel like family from the fir...
st moment. Grace was so kind, thoughtful, professional, and all around awesome! And the video we received is BEYOND our wildest dreams! We have already watched it a million times and will cherish it forever. They captured the venue, the vibe, the happiness, and love perfectly! Trying to find more reasons to work with Grace and Ben in the future :)
Contracting Novae for our wedding videography was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding experience – from start to finish (and forever). Leading up to our we...
dding day Grace was EXTREMELY detailed and informative about their style and wanted to get to know US better- she asked us details about what we want featured/what moments would be especially important moments to US. On the actual wedding day, I couldn’t even tell that anyone was filming us. Grace/Ben let us know they were there and made us feel comfortable, however they were just naturally in the background, not distracting or overbearing. I also can’t say enough how flawlessly Grace/Ben worked with our photographers as well- we had 4 people taking film and video of us and it truly just felt like my husband and I were alone. Some of my favorite parts of our wedding day were when we were just with Grace & Ben because we got to get away from everyone and just have a second to breathe. They made us feel so comfortable and everything was completely natural. They just let us be US. During the editing process, Grace communicated with me often and made me feel like I was the only client she had- that’s how 1x1 the process felt. I could just tell she really wanted to get it right. She wanted to get every last detail, moment, everything just perfect.
NOW- we get memories of our day forever, and I can honestly say video is an absolute must. DO NOT. CUT VIDEO OUT OF YOUR BUDGET. Yes pictures are great, but they just do not tell the full story of your day.
We got THREE VIDEOS from Novae- a teaser, highlight AND FEATURE. The teaser was amazing because it was a quick fun 1 minute long video that we got shortly after our wedding day while on our honeymoon which was so fun to watch and enjoy alongside my new hubby!! The highlight was truly like a movie preview, the way they edited the scenes to match the beat of the music in the songs…the way they put the overlay of our voices and matched it perfectly to what was being shown in the video… I cried the entire 5 minutes I first watched it. The highlight was so beautiful and touching but it definitely left us wanting to see MORE! WHICH IS WHY YOU NEED. NEEEEEEDDDD A FEATURE FILM. 45 minutes of your day and it still flies by! I think we could’ve had 2 hours and still wanted more! It’s just THAT good- walking down the aisle, the ceremony, all the speeches, all the moments of the day, your guests you may not have even seen that day, THE DETAILS, the dancing!!! The feature film will be the one my husband and I watch and reflect on forever. I cannot stress enough how much the feature film means to us and again, MAKE ROOM for it in your budget. This is the piece of your day that will live on forever and trust me Grace & Ben will make it absolutely perfect. My husband and I were so overwhelmed with emotion after watching the feature film. Grace – thank you for absolutely everything you did for us and for becoming a friend through this process. No words will ever be enough to describe my appreciation and love for you. You and Ben are so brilliantly talented and we are forever grateful. You went above, and I mean ABOVE. AND BEYOND. We love you! xo, The Colucci’s!
Grace and Ben were HANDS DOWN the best business we hired for our wedding day. They were discrete yet with us every step of the way! Organized and hardworking are understatements as...
they worked their TAILS off to help keep us comfortable, relaxed, and "flowing" through all the stages of the day. On top of their incredible professionalism, they are wonderful human beings that are personable and so easy to work with. Grace is hilarious and Ben is just the sweetest thing. If you're wedding film/photography is a priority for you, drop your stuff and book them while you can. We are planning to shoot with them again in the future even though we live a few states away. Thank you Grace and Ben!
-Sam&Justin
I could not recommend going with Novae enough. Grace and Ben are truly the nicest people and they are so incredibly easy to work with. Grace was very responsive on the days leading...
up to our wedding, and she and Ben were so thoughtful about capturing the true essence of our day. Having our wedding highlight and ceremony captured has to be the most special memory we have of our big day!
Ben & Grace are literal artistic geniuses! We were told in the beginning of the process having a wedding video is one of the best investments because you usually forget or don’t g...
et to see all the moments of your day. So we had no hesitation making the investment with Ben & Grace! It’s actually a family tradition at this point as we are the third in the family to go through them for our wedding photos/video. They are really just becoming part of our family at this point.
We got to know them best on our engagement shoot, they got a feel for us and we got a feel for them and how they works all just got really comfortable with each other, so we highly recommend utilizing them for that as well!
Seriously, please go watch our teaser and highlight films on Vimeo (links below) and you’ll see their magic!
Teaser: https://vimeo.com/494481843
Highlight: https://vimeo.com/522852681
We also highly recommend hiring them for photos and video. Because these two are so in sync with each other you have a seamless video! I’ve seen people hire separate photographers and videographers and they are in each others shots and usually one ruins a capturable moment for the other, we did not have this issue with Ben & Grace.
Grace is also like a wealth of knowledge if you need suggestions for anything! Thankful for her for telling us about our wedding venue after Covid forced us to cancel our big wedding.
Honestly they are a dream team and worth the investment! Promise!
We hired Novae for our wedding in September 2019. They were super responsive the entire time and flexible when we were way behind on getting them information. They captured our day...
in photo and video that we absolutely love. They even extended the length of our video because they said they had so much footage they wanted to include, which was really very sweet. The day-of the wedding they were on time, kept us moving through family portraits and never in the way. After getting our photos we were surprised at the shots they were able to actually capture! They do absolutely stunning work and all of our friends & family could not stop raving about how beautiful everything turned out. Their romantic, moody style is (in our bias opinions) exactly what you want for such a romantic and special day. We turned our prints into a book so we can look at these memories for years to come. They gave us all the highlights as well as extra special small moments that made the entire experience very intimate and truly wonderful.
We could not say enough amazing things about Grace and Ben! They make the most thoughtful, careful to detail, flexible, empathetic, and kind team. Watching our video brings tears t...
o our eyes every time, because it truly feels like what that day felt like again. They captured everything so perfectly and nailed every aspect. No one else comes close to making the quality and thoughtfulness of their films. Grace is one of a kind. It’s so rare to meet someone who is just whole heartedly GOOD and who cares so greatly for people. When you meet her you’ll get it and you will feel that trust in her right away, she just has a calming and grounding presence that chases away the anxiety. We will forever be SO grateful to Grace and Ben that we are able to watch this unreaallll film for the rest of our lives and remember the BEST DAY EVER!
Grace and Ben were SO awesome to work with. I think Grace was more excited about my wedding details than I was haha! They were very easy to communicate with and were overly generou...
s with their time. We LOVED our wedding photos, they're everything we hoped for! They could not have made us feel more comfortable and in love on our wedding day. We felt like celebrities! Highly recommend this fantastic duo.
When we saw Grace + Ben’s beautiful work, we knew our wedding photos would be keepsakes we’d be thrilled to have. What we didn’t imagine is just how much the photos would bring our...
memories to life in the weeks to follow. They truly captured the happiness we felt that day. Each photo helps illustrate all of the love our friends and family shared, and collectively they tell the perfect story of our wedding day. From highlighting little moments we may have otherwise missed to catching stolen glances, laughter and amazing dance moves, the images document our day with such care. Each time we look at our pictures, it seems as though we discover something new in them.
They have a natural way of capturing the beauty and excitement of the day while ensuring everyone has never looked more themselves on film. They offer gentle direction to keep you on track without ever influencing the room, except to offer encouragement and to share in your happiness. If you’re very lucky, they may even join you on the dance floor to close out the night!
I couldn’t recommend Novae Film and Photo more. They’ll put love, talent and kindness into the finished product that you’ll carry with you long after your wedding day.
Grace & Ben are the best of the best! If you are contemplating booking them for any of your photo or video needs, do it! you will not be disappointed! They are so professional and ...
organized yet low key, and chill and make you feel so comfortable! They work so well together as a couple, and truly make you feel important and special on your big day, and are so accommodating! Thank you Grace & Ben for your amazing talent, flexibility and commitment on our wedding day! We are forever grateful for the memories you captured for us!
Grace and Ben brought such a kindness and warmth to their work. From our first interaction to the final product, they were incredibly accommodating and an absolute pleasure to work...
with. Grace and Ben made us feel as though we were the only wedding of the year! Through endless hours on the phone, tireless preparation, and consistent accessibility, the two were there for us every step of the way. Much like their beautiful souls, their work was equally beautiful and creative. We love you Grace and Ben, and thank you a million times!
Grace + Ben are true gems. They love hard and give so much time for those minor details that make such a big impact in the overall production. My wife + I are not the most overly P...
DA kind of people. We are super weird but love that about us. They didn't force us to be something we are not. They didn't rush anything. They understood what was important to us. We hired them because they have such great personalities that balance one another out. Grace is super amazing in completely different areas than Ben and vise versa. My wife loved them because they made things simple and made her feel dapper AF. Hire them. Pronto. Especially if you want something unique.
Where to even begin? If we could give more than 5 stars we would. The amazing partnership of Grace and Ben that makes up Novae Film and Photo is absolutely top notch. During our we...
dding planning, we went back and forth trying to decide if we could afford video into our budget. After talking and working with Grace, it was a no brainer. And after watching a bunch of stranger’s videos on their website that they had already done and bawling our eyes out, we knew there was no body else we wanted to do so. From the beginning, they were extremely thorough and reliable. They always responded to my countless emails in the most pleasant ways. We started with engagement photos. We had never had professional photos done before but that was no issue with them. They made us feel extremely comfortable and guided us the entire time. Our engagement photos were SO BEAUTIFUL and got us so much more excited for our big day. Leading up to our wedding, Grace made sure we were on the same page with everything so that I (the bride) did not have to stress at all. There were some special moments I wanted captured and they made it top priority. On the day of the wedding, Grace, Ben, and their assistant they brought were WONDERFUL. And let me just tell you, the final products blew our minds. When I watch our wedding highlight video I still cannot believe its us! The quality of the film & photos are unreal. The song choice, the audio clips, the intimate moments, ALL OF IT was documented so perfectly in the film. I get the feels all over again watching it. Friends, family, and so many others have reached out to tell us how emotional it made them feel. The video truly did exceed our expectations. Also, when it comes to the photos they truly got it all. The colors and quality of the photos are absolutely stunning. Its almost impossible to pick our favorites to hang on our walls because there are just TOO MANY that are perfection.
All in all, if you’re looking for a business that can do both film & photo FLAWLESSLY then look no further. SERIOUSLY. Grace and Ben are beautiful souls who will work their butts off for you and deliver the highest quality you could ever ask for. We love them and would choose them over and over again.
We were absolutely in LOVE with Grace and Ben. From the moment we met them, I knew they were going to make our dreams come true. They were both beyond amazing to work with and I c...
an’t stress that enough. These are not your standard wedding videographers. We were blown away by our wedding video they created. Tears, laughter and everything in between. They seamlessly captured all of MAGIC on our wedding day. Their expertise in cinematography and video productive shined thru in their work. If you want a team that will keep you calm and allow you to relive your special day, they are your go-to videographers. Novae Film and Photo — is a must hire. Their demeanor and professionalism will BE SURE to wow you away. Couldn’t recommend them more <3.
Where do I even start with these two...
WOW - what an incredible duo. We pretty last minute decided we would like to have a film to remember our wedding day and were SO thankful to...
find that Grace and Ben were available on our wedding day!
Through the planning process, Grace was so helpful in creating a day of timeline and provided such valuable insight for what to include / what to pass on on our wedding day from all of the weddings she has been a part of (cause lets be honest I literally had no clue what I was talking about lol).
Jon and I are normally pretty camera shy and it was so sweet that Grace and Ben coached us through different shots and made us feel so comfortable in our own skin. I've never felt so beautiful or confident than I did on our day!
Ben also has some craaaazy cool drone skills. It was really special to see the drone flying over all of our family and friends and knowing that it was creating a memory we'll be able to watch in all of our years to come!
I cannot say enough good things about these filmmakers and truly don't have the words for how thankful we are to have had them play such a huge role in our wedding day.
Speechless - Grace and Ben do an incredible job and do not disappoint! They seamlessly fold into your day like they are family, but leave as so much more. When you finally receive ...
that video you've been dreaming about, be prepared for it to exceed your expectations. It left my husband and I speechless and sobbing. They didn't just capture our day, they captured the emotions, and allowed us to relive the moments like we were right back there highlighted it by how they piece the shots together and the music they choose. They are one of a kind and absolutely worth every single penny you give them. We are forever grateful to them for the lifelong gift they've given us that we'll cherish forever! WE LOVE NOVAE FILM AND PHOTO!!!

I booked Grace and Ben as the videographers for my wedding this summer, and I highly recommend them. They were wonderful to work with throughout the whole process. Grace was very q...
uick to respond to emails and helped me figure out some of the logistics of the wedding day, such as when and where to have our first look. It rained most of the day leading up to our wedding but Grace and Ben made it work and were still able to get beautiful footage of us outside during our picture time before the ceremony. Our wedding video turned out better than I could’ve ever imagined. It perfectly captured the feeling of our wedding day. We had so much fun with our friends and family and every time I watch the video I feel like I’m reliving the day. I seriously can’t stop watching it—I’ve rewatched it at least 10 times since we got it last week. Grace and Ben, thank you SO MUCH for your amazing work!!!

solutely remarkable job with capturing our day, so gracefully. Our wedding video I still watch on replay and cry everytime. They nailed it right on the head. Everything I could have hoped for AND more! They captured every moment we could ever ever want! Every laugh every cry and all the antispaction leading up to, the whole night! From dancing to cake to more dancing it’s was perfect ! I’d reccomend them over and over and over again.
Grace and Ben are EXTREMELY talented and create high quality films! Having them film our wedding was an absolute no-brainer. We really couldn't have picked a better videographer. ...
They are thoughtful, fun, and open to hearing what awesome ideas you might have for your special day! A lot of people don't want to spend the additional money on videographers, but if you choose Novae Film you will quickly realize you would be willing to pay them double! They capture moments, memories and FEELINGS that pictures just can't replicate! Thank you Grace and Ben for being a HUGE part of our special day!!!

e there on the day of the wedding. It was so awesome to see our wedding day that we worked so hard to put together from everyone else's point of view down to the smallest details, while also reliving our favorite moments. They also picked the perfect music for our video that gave an extra special affect to every special moment. Very responsive before the wedding and genuinely invested in my husband and I's relationship leading up to the wedding to get a better idea of what we would be looking for in our footage.
My husband and I were so fortunate to hire Grace and Ben to be our wedding photographers! Our wedding literally would not have been the same without them. We chose to have our cere...
mony at our family camp in Casco Bay. Although engagement photos were not part of our wedding package, Grace and Ben included them so that they could scope out the site in advance and be prepared to get the absolute best photos on our wedding day. We opted to do our own wedding planning, which ended up working out really well with Grace's help. She sent us an example wedding day schedule several months before the wedding, which actually turned into my wedding guide. Everyone had a copy. Working with Grace and Ben on our wedding day was very easy; I was able to relax and not think about which photos were left or if we were missing anything or anyone. They helped us work through the inevitable hiccups that happened the day-of and stayed with us to document the entire wedding day until they felt satisfied with the collection of photos. From the sneak peak that they sent us before we even landed on our honeymoon to the finished portfolio, we are so happy with how Novae Film and Photo captured our wedding day.
Grace and Ben exceeded our expectations on every level! From the moment we met them we knew it was going to be a great fit. Not only are they extremely talented, they have a wonder...
ful presence as well. They were “invisible” when they needed to be and were always smiling and positive. We are beyond thrilled with their work and believe they were able to capture so many genuine moments because of how comfortable they made everyone around them feel. Look no further, Grace and Ben will make you laugh and smile on your big day and will produce a video that you will cherish forever! Thank you, thank you, Grace and Ben!!
My wife and I were absolutely thrilled with our wedding video from Reel Maine Co. Grace & Ben communicate from start to finish to make sure every detail is covered. The work they d...
o is amazing - they somehow managed to capture every moment, while seeming like they were never even there. We've watched our highlight video hundreds of times but also enjoyed our full length video to remember our big day.
As someone who works in video professionally, I wanted to make sure that the crew that worked on our wedding was top notch. But Grace and Ben were more than just top notch, they we...
re organized, easy to work with, creative, and innovative. We absolutely cherish our video, and everyone we have shown it to has been over the moon impressed.
To say that Reel Maine Co is the REAL deal is a massive understatement (no pun intended). Grace and Ben are truly wonderful, thoughtful and TALENTED people to work with. They have ...
the creative insight to take your day and make it completely special and perfect on film. I have watched countless videos of theirs for couples I have never met, and they all evoke emotion in me. Grace was there for me on my special day, literally wiping sweat and grime off of me for the "perfect" shot. Ben was there alongside my husband to do the same. They were there from first thing in the morning to until after the party ended, and gave us the most amazing memorable keepsake gift that we will treasure forever. If you are looking for an investment that is worth every shiny penny, and to work with people who are truly WONDERFUL, then you need to work with Reel Maine Company. I would do it over and over again. Thank you Ben and Grace for your hard work, and for loving your couples as you do!!
Grace and Ben were an absolute pleasure to work with on our wedding day. They are also wonderful people that we are so happy to have met and gotten to know personally.
They are e...
xcellent communicators and listeners, and made sure to understand our style and vision while also remaining true to their own beautiful style and editing. They made extended efforts to get to know us beforehand to understand our relationship and expectations in order to properly document us and our day. They were so easy to work with, encouraging us to act natural while also giving suggestions for beautiful poses to capture the love we have for each other. The videos that they delivered to us were stunning and captured the energy of our wedding perfectly as well as the beautiful scenery of our location, blending everything together amazingly to help us relive the happiest day of our lives over and over again! We can't stop watching the video and tear up thinking about the wonderful memories. Plus, it was a destination wedding which was not at all a problem for them as they easily adjusted to the unfamiliar area and incorporated the setting wonderfully (plus, they are great travelers).
Since our wedding in June 2017, we have also used their services for personal photos and are so happy with the results! They consistently deliver a remarkable product and we love looking back at our memories.
We would highly recommend Reel Maine Company's services whether you are looking for video or photography. They are extremely talented, wonderful people, easy to work with and deliver an amazing product that you will look back on with joy for years to come. We hope to continue to work with them throughout our lifetime so they can capture some of our lives' most important moments!

I would give Reel Maine CO 100 starts if i could! Grace and Ben were so easy to be with and professional. From our meetings with them prior to the wedding, to getting ready, to fir...
st looks, to the ceremony and reception, they made us feel so taken care of. Having people try to capture intimate moments is a hard feat, they made everything about it feel natural and not staged. We would gladly work with them again for any project, and can't recommend them enough!!!
We are SO happy with our decision to have Grace and Ben film our wedding! They contacted us ahead of time to make sure they knew exactly what we were looking for. Their presence on...
our wedding day was calm and professional, which made all the difference to us! The final product is amazing; they captured every important part of our special day and pieced it together beautifully, so we get to relive it whenever we want. I would recommend hiring Reel Maine Co. for any event!
Grace and Ben of Reel Maine Company have an eye for beauty, which exquisitely captured the precious moments of our October wedding. In spite of rainy weather they went with the fl...
ow. Their cameras zoomed in on the soft autumn ambience of the farm landscape and rustic beauty of the barn creating a timeless remembrance for us. Their close-ups were sensitive and meaningful. Their transition shots and recording of the important events of the wedding: vows, toasts and dancing, were paced so that even strangers would enjoy watching them. During the day, they worked seamlessly with our photographer and made us both feel comfortable. It was like they were not even there during the reception. They moved around the room so effortlessly while still capturing every important moment. Grace kept us updated throughout the editing process and before releasing the final product checked with us to make sure it was exactly what we wanted. Their professionalism and concern for ensuring that the final product fit our vision made us thankful that we decided to have Reel Maine Company film our wedding. The final product is beyond perfect. Wedding days go by so quickly, we are so thankful to have a film filled with memories that we never want to forget. Thank you Reel Maine Company for your work on our wedding! I would recommend them to any couple about to get married! You wont regret your decision.
When planning our wedding I knew that I wanted a videographer there! I had heard so many regrets from other brides about skipping it due to costs, etc and I knew that we had to mak...
e it work! My husband and I were looking for not just a video but a keepsake that we could watch as we grow old together with our family. When I found Grace and Ben I was so happy to find that they supported our vision and had many ideas that I hadn't thought of! They were fantastic to work with throughout the process of planning, always responsive to messages and calls, etc. They really wanted to make sure we got what we wanted on that day and that we knew that every project they do is as unique as the couples they work with.
On the day of our wedding they were so professional, they worked well with our photographer, and we heard throughout the evening from guests how impressed they were that they were capturing so much! To us, it seemed natural that they were there- almost like they weren't there! When we watched our highlight video and our longer video later we realized again how fast that day went by and it really made us so glad that we had them there! My husband and I wrote letters to each other on the day and they included us reading them in the video which was really special for us. There were a lot of special touches of things we'd mentioned were important that they remembered to include. We are so grateful that we chose them to be part of our perfect day and we honestly can't wait for an excuse to include them in another milestone!
We definitely recommend Grace and Ben for your day! You won't be disappointed!
During the initial wedding planning process, having a videographer did not initially cross our minds. We then met Grace and Ben and our wedding ideas changed. Grace worked with me ...
and the bridal party and Ben worked with my husband and his groomsmen- my husband is very shy as am I and Grace and Ben made us feel so incredibly comfortable. It was almost like they weren't there! They stayed out of the way of our photographer and blended with guests and our vendors-truly professionals at their craft. The entire day was such a blur and they were able to capture every single detail- many of which both of us overlooked or forgot. I could never image not having a video to watch and reflect upon after the wedding- we laughed, we cried, and we relived the best day of our lives thanks to these two amazing humans. If you are on the fence or thinking that having a videographer is not necessary- think again. I can't thank Reel Maine enough for their professionalism, friendliness or expertise in making our day the best it could be! Ben and Grace go above and beyond the job description-I can't say enough good things!
