    Captured the Moment: Personalized Service

    Mike was fantastic! During our first phone call I could tell that I was dealing with someone that was going to give me and my fiancé the experience we wanted for our wedding. During the first call, he took the time to explain everything to me regarding videography, he got to know what was important to us for our wedding, and he also gave me a taste of some Syracuse history! I knew we would get along. He was super easy to deal with, easy to get in touch with, and was always willing to meet me in convenient locations for meetings about contracts and payments. It was great to be able to see so much of his previous work on YouTube to get ideas and see what we wanted. He customized our package without any issues and charged a very fair price for our customizations. If you are looking for extra coverage such as a rehearsal dinner, he is your guy!!! He doesn’t heavily edit the wedding coverage so you get the full video and it feels “real”, which was one of my requirements! That is something not many people do these days. The drone sneak peak was super cool. I know this is a weird thing to say if you have never been married before, but Mike was very respectful and didn’t ask me a million questions the day of. A few of my other vendors had not prepared fully and therefore had issues that needed dealing with the day of which was stressful for a bride. Mike, however, was fully prepared, professional, and efficient during all of the festivities. I was stressed at one point and he never lost his professionalism. He let my stressful moment pass and then got some great shots. As far as product quality is concerned, he was also awesome. During the wedding day he got coverage of all the special moments we had talked about. The video of our wedding parade (google New Orleans Wedding Second Line if you are curious) could not have been better. He got a shot of everyone’s face, the brass band, myself and my husband! It was phenomenal the way he filmed it (if he posts it on YouTube, you should watch it). I felt like I was in the parade again. It was cool because during the wedding I was in the front of the procession, but with the video I get to have the guest experience as well. He was so kind after the wedding and I am glad that he stayed to tell us bye. He got everything done in a reasonable timeframe and also met me in a convenient location near my job for delivery. Overall, Mike did an excellent job and I recommend him.

    Dynamic Duo

    Mike Marano has been a videographer for weddings for over 30 years and practically pioneered the field. He was so familiar with the venue and has worked with our photographer at so many weddings they worked perfectly in sync. He was the man behind the scenes making sure to capture our special moments while making himself invisible at the same time. He had an assistant with him that helped make sure he was able to capture footage via drone as well as on the ground during the ceremony. He has a great sense of humor and was truly a pleasure to work with. We can't wait to see how it all comes out!

    Simply Amazing

    Mike was incredible to work with. From our very first conversation, I knew he was going to handle everything professionally and capture every aspect of our wedding with great detail. His work is simply breathtaking and he’s able to capture everything while being discreet- I forgot he was even there most of the time! I would highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for a professional and experienced videographer!

    Exceptional experience all around

    Mike Marano videotaped our wedding 31 years ago and since we were so happy with our video we hired him to do our daughters wedding in Sept of 2022. The entire experience was great. He is professional and the final product was outstanding! Definitely recommend!

    Will travel all over NY!

    Mike traveled to my hometown of Watertown, NY. He went to my parent's house where we got married, then to the reception another 25 minutes away. He used drone footage, multiple cameras, and made sure to catch all the moments. If you are looking for a videographer that will travel for a good cost, use him!

    Easy to work with and very high quality product!

    Mike was really easy to work with and required very little guidance to capture out event and produce outstanding videos of the ceremony and the reception. He thought of everything without being told. The videos are very high quality. We had live singers and he captured the music and their voices perfectly! Love that he incorporated drone footage, too. We're very happy and highly recommend him.

    Must have for your special day!

    Mike was seriously amazing to work with. He was so professional, friendly, accommodating, and over all an amazing guy and videographer! He has an eye for perfect shots. He captured everything we could've asked for and more. Not to mention the UNBEATABLE price. He gave us every single minute he shot with all the special moments and oopsies. I cannot begin to thank him enough for such a special moment. If you are on the fence about hiring a videographer, make the jump and hire Mike!!

    Exactly what I wanted

    Mike was great to work with, he gave me exactly what I wanted, not some 10 or 11 min recap video, but all of the important pieces in their entirety. Including my husbands grandfather singing at our wedding. Those moments are so important and I want to relive that day any time I want! Now I can :)

    So happy we hired Video Memories

    Mike was very professional and so easy to work with. He captured everything that I requested. He didn’t miss anything during the ceremony or reception. The drone footage was truly amazing. Capturing footage from above was spectacular. We looked at other videographers and they did not have the quality or experience as Video Memories. Their prices were very reasonable. We went with the higher package that included photos of my husband and myself growing up together and dating. This was so endearing. It made our parents cry. I would highly recommend Video Memories to anyone who’s getting married.

    Video was amazing

    My fiance Sharron and I were debating if we should do a professional video,
    we looked at many videographers and Video Memories name kept coming up. My wife and I are so happy with the video!!! The quality, the content,Mike did not miss a thing! and the best part was the free drone footage! I would recommend Video Memories to anyone planning to get married..nice job guys!!

    Wedding Video

    Mike did an amazing job capturing our very special day. We loved our recap, and the drone footage Mike did! He was very easy to work with and very accommodating to last minute changes we had due to COVID. My husband and I look forward to being able to watch the most special day of our lives anytime we want!

    Great Product

    Loved the video produced by Mike. Product was very well done. Moreover, he was very accommodating given the circumstances surrounding Covid and agreed to split my package between two dates. I look forward to working with him again in October. Highly recommend.

    Update: my family and I absolutely loved the video Mike produced for our Halloween reception. The little touches really made the video unique. Can't be the value!

    A memory to last a lifetime!

    Mike was an excellent videographer for our special and unique ceremony! He was flexible, courteous, willing to put in extra time and energy for an extremely low cost. In the midst of a pandemic he found a way to work with our limitations and left us some memories for a lifetime. He brought the vintage feel of videography with a compilation of music that matched our special day. Thank you so much!
