Fantastic Experience & Video

Wow! We are so glad we used Martin Films to document our wedding. At first, we weren't considering having a videographer, but I am SO GLAD WE DID. The feeling that is captured through movement, and music, is so touching - I have cried numerous times watching - the best tears of joy taking me back to such a wonderful day. We had some stressful situations getting ready that were outside of our control - Martin was very professional and helped keep the vibe calm. I was nervous because I thought a camera up in my area would be really distracting, but I literally did not even notice he was there most of the time. He gave direction as needed for some of our posed shots, 100% recommend.

Outstanding job capturing our wedding!

Martin was our wedding videographer in summer 2023 and did an incredible job! The documentary approach was exactly what we were looking for - it captured all the moments we wanted to remember (full speeches, key ceremony parts, & reception highlights) without being too long. He set up multiple cameras to get different angles of the ceremony. We were also extremely impressed by the audio quality. There was even a song/speech that nobody could hear day of that came through perfectly clearly in the video. Martin was easy to work with and professional throughout the process. Would highly recommend!

Couldn't be happier!

We hired Martin as our wedding videographer for our wedding this past May and he was absolutely incredible to work with! Through our initial call with him, we could tell that he was extremely professional and experienced, and we knew he would capture our special day perfectly! He was very communicative and kind, and all the footage was beautiful and candid, exactly how we wanted! We thoroughly enjoyed having Martin as our wedding videographer and we can't recommend him enough!

Couldn't be happier!

Martin was recommended to us by our planner and we couldn’t be happier to have worked with him. He was extremely engaged and detail oriented throughout the process, from early planning to post-production. Not only did he and his team member capture high quality footage, he also put together a series of really well produced videos that tell a beautiful story of our multi-event wedding. Much to our delight, he also delivered everything within 6 weeks(!) and promptly made the minor adjustments we requested. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend working with MartinFILMS!

Martin was easy to work with and produced an incredible video of our wedding!

We hired Martin for our wedding this past June and loved working with him. He was extremely communicative from the start and was quick to respond when we reached out to him. He jumped on the phone with us a couple of times to discuss what our hopes were for our wedding video. He even visited our venue in advance to get an idea of how to best film the location and all of the elements of our ceremony. The video Martin produced was stunning. It perfectly captured the events of the day as well as the emotions we were all feeling. His turn around time was quick, and we also appreciated that he filmed the whole ceremony and provided that footage as well. We’re so glad we found Martin for such an important piece of our day!

Martin is fabulous!

Martin was such a joy to work with on our wedding day! He is incredibly kind and professional. We could really tell that he knew what he was doing on our wedding day. He was very thorough in his set up and making sure to capture not only the big moments of the day, but the scenery and the small moments. You can really tell that he loves what he does and that he cares for the couples he works with. We really loved working with him and can’t recommend him enough!

Responsive videographer who captured our day perfectly

We hired Martin as our wedding videographer and could not have had a better experience. He was extremely responsive throughout the entire process, responding the emails the same day if not within the hour. Martin was also extremely flexible with the changes we made due to COVID leading up to our wedding. On the day of the wedding, he was our lowest stress vendor! He captured everything without any fuss, only jumping in with a few requests here and there. We felt Martin did an amazing job editing, our videos came out perfectly. They captured our day just as we remembered it. If you're looking for a low-stress videographer who will put together beautiful videos, I would definitely recommend Martin!

Our wedding film is perfection -10/10! He captured every moment and more. The details he focused on were amazing and we are so thankful for him capturing the best moments on our special day. A wedding video is something you will have forever to look back on, and we highly recommend Martin for all your video needs!!

Martin Meyer of martinFILMS is a true artist - he takes his time, he observes - with his keen eye AND with his camera, he doesn't talk much... and then he comes back with a little piece of visual art that sums it all up in a nutshell: the most important moments, the atmosphere of an event, the precious little moments and gestures - all in high cinematographic style, in the perfect flow for the event shown, and enveloped in music befitting the whole experience. I can't praise him enough, and I can't wait to work with him again!
