Wedding Videographer

Highly recommend using MCJ impressions for your video! They were very easy to communicate with and captured all the perfect moments. They even had us doing before and after getting ready videos. They were so fun to be around!

Melanie, Charlene and Jennifer and crew were amazing. They were absolutely perfect in their work and they executed it smoothly. We could not have asked for anything more from them and right from the start with our save the date idea of four seasons in four different locations we knew they were the best at what they do and they did not disappoint in any way. They went the extra mile to provide us with amazing photos and Jennifer's same day edit video was perfect. She captured our wedding day with such enthusiasm and it was her birthday as well so we definitely appreciate her taking the time to film our most special day. Melanie and Charlene were also on top of their game as they captured our photos with efficiency and creativity. We could not have asked for a better family to provide us with memories that would last for a lifetime. Thank you for bringing our wedding to life with your work and we recommend MCJ to anybody that wants to have a lasting memory of their wedding or event. We are extremely satisfied with MCJ's work and if we could relive it again, we probably would. Thank you Charlene, Melanie and Jennifer!

My wife and I were recently married in Temecula, CA at a beautiful winery on 10/10/2014. I had set out to find the perfect videographer to capture our special day months prior. This was quite a daunting task, because my wife went to film school and has very cinematic and discerning taste. I thought that this job was going to be impossible to get the quality my wife wanted and still fit within our budget.

When i found MCJ Impressions, I was completely blown away but the quality on their website. The videos were flawless, cinematic and really special. When my wife saw their videos - she got butterflies. They have such an artistic eye and capture very sweet, tender moments. I was completely stunned that they fit within our budget. I thought that there had to be some catch.

Upon meeting the girls at MCJ to discuss our big day - we were again blown away. They were the sweetest of people. They listened to what was important to us and what we needed to capture on film. They were on top of every followup email and phone call leading up to the big day.

For our big day - MCJ again were absolutely amazing. They did a great job coordinating with our photographer and wedding planner to make sure everything had a great flow and no area was missed. They were also out of the way of all important parts (just capturing the moment - and never intruding). I actually stepped on one girl on the dance floor by accident - sorry! They had the perfect questions to ask us and our guests for day-of testimonials. We cannot say enough great things about our experience with MCJ. They knocked out our trailer video super fast too! My wife has watched our video over a 1000 times and cries in happiness every time!

MCJ Impressions is amazing and deserves more than 5 stars!

We have worked with MCJ Impressions for several weddings. We were instantly impressed with their professionalism. They were quick to respond to our emails and phone calls which is important to us as wedding producers. When meeting with our clients they were thorough in explaining their services as well as painting a picture of how they would execute their services.

On the wedding day they are always on time and ready to start capturing all of the important details. These sisters work so well together and capture the natural elements throughout the day, keeping their communication open. They have creative ideas that throughout the day that made for an amazing final product. They also delivered the photography and video quickly! We highly recommend these amazing ladies when looking for photography and videography for your next special occasion.

I can't say enough about these girls. Jen spent a lot of time meeting with me before the wedding. It was clear that we both shared the same vision when I saw the final video. I have since recommended them to numerous friends and I love seeing her work her magic at those weddings. Everyone has loved themes much as I have! I hope to work with them in the future to do some videos of my twins. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

I found MCJ Impressions on Yelp and liked what I saw in the reviews and decided to check out their website. Little did I know that I went to college with one of the sisters (hi Charlene!). Their personalities were fun and I could tell they understood our style. And since the sisters did video & photo it was an easy decision to book them for both. It would be a seamless partnership and I loved their style for photo + video after watching a few trailers. The prices were affordable and comparable to other vendors we researched. Plus, they had done weddings at the Mitten Building before and that was a major perk. On the wedding day they were fun to work with, made everything simple and did an amazing job. The girls completely exceeded my expectations and I hope they enjoyed the day with us. We laughed the whole time and I loved watching the wedding trailer because they captured all those little moments. The pictures are beautiful and they gave me 500+ options to choose from. It was easy to download the prints and share with our vendors. Yesterday our wedding video & photo disc arrived and the packaging was beautiful. They included a custom designed case that looks beautiful displayed on a coffee table or shelf. They also included a custom magnet with our names & wedding date and a handwritten note. The video was set up like a movie and was a huge surprise! I had no idea it would look that way and I cried very happy tears while watching our wedding all over again. I expected hours of raw footage and that special details they added were appreciated. I can't imagine how long it took to edit all the photos and videos and turn it into such a beautiful package. I highly, highly recommend hiring MCJ for your photo and/or video needs. They're an amazing team and exceeded expectations time and time again. They're creative, understanding, incredibly talented and all-around FUN, which was a must-have for me. Thank you MCJ for making our big day so magical!!

My husband and I hired MCJ impressions for our wedding on 9/21/2014. If I have any advice for any couples that are planning a wedding now, it's for you to hire MCJ Impressions!!! I was hesitant about hiring a videographer for our wedding due to the prices, but I am sooooooo glad that I did. Pictures can only capture so much....video captures everything. Not only is MCJ Impressions' prices competitive, but the quality of their work is absolutely amazing!!! When my husband and I first met with Jennifer and her sister Charlene, we loved them right away. They are so personable, professional, likeable, and a pleasure to work with.
On the day of our wedding, they were so fun to work with. Half the time we didn't even know they were there. They captured every special moment of our special day. Jennifer's quality of work is stunning! We received our wedding trailer video a month after our wedding, and it not only had me in tears, but all of my friends and family. We just received our whole wedding video last week and I've already watched it 3 times. This video is something that I will cherish for all my years of my life and will show it to my future children and grandchildren. Pictures can't capture even half of what video captures. This was the best investment we made for our wedding. MCJ Impressions is a must!!!! You will not regret hiring them!!! Thank you Jennifer for the best memorabilia ever!!!!!!

If I could rate these women more stars i would! We hired them to video tape our wedding and the experience was amazing!! They came all the way from cali to do our las vegas wedding and they were so fun, easy going, and professional. Our guests keep complementing the work they did for the same day edit they showed during our reception, and of course it made me cry! Prior to them capturing our video for the wedding i would occasionally have questions andI would either email or text it to them and their response was always quick and always professional. I love these women!! They are amazing! My husband and I are beyond happy to have hired them to capture our special moments. Thank you ladies!

Thank goodness I found MCJ Impressions! Jennifer did the videography for my wedding and she is fantastic. She put me at ease throughout the whole process and was really accommodating with my requests. She also made sure to scope out the venue beforehand to get a handle on the structure, lighting and all the other things videographers need to know. On the wedding day, Jennifer and her assistants arrived early and went straight to work. I knew I was in good hands the moment they showed up.
