Great Videographer

Go to experience James’ work at my sisters wedding, and had to hire him for mine the following year. I love that he gives raw footage so you can see everything. He’s a one man team but he uses multiple camera to catch multiple angles, and he captured little things that otherwise would’ve been unnoticed. He was also very quick about sending us the footage. Great Value, Great Quality, Great Videographer. Thank you James!!

James gets it done!

We loved having James film our wedding. For just one guy, he was everywhere! He is a raw footage only videographer but one of my sisters is a film director and agreed to edit our film as a wedding gift. We loved the idea, the cost and James did us right. He was a total pleasure to work with and got into the WeddingFest theme we had for our big day. I am happy to refer him!
