Beyond Words Impressed

The Richards made our wedding video dreams come true! It was actually our second time working with them- they captured an incredible video for my sister’s wedding as well! The entire day they kept us calm and excited, and the end result is beyond our expectations. It is beautiful, touching, funny, and so incredibly us. We cannot recommend them enough!!!

Best videographers!

My husband and I absolutely loved working with The Richards. They are two of the most caring and sweetest people you will meet. They really did an amazing job with capturing out perfect day. Every time I watch our video, I get chills all over again. They really know how to capture the greatest and special moments. They were every easy to talk to and gave great instruction on what we needed to do. I highly recommend getting a videographer for your wedding and I highly recommend The Richards!

Kristina and Mike are extremely talented and did a wonderful job! Everyone who has seen our wedding video said it was the best they've seen. They are also QUICK! We got our wedding video while we were at the airport on the way home from our wedding-- within 2 days of the ceremony! My friend who is a makeup artist- Thuy Tran- recommended them and I'm so glad I took her advise! Paying extra for a quality videographer is worth it, so save up for it! My husband thought it was an unnecessary expense, until he saw our video! He was so glad I insisted on having a videographer and a high-quality one at that!

They made us feel comfortable and everything went smoothly. They were both wonderful to work with from the beginning. The video came out BEYOND what we could have imagined, it was extremely emotional. We had a 10 minute trailer video, and every little detail was so amazing. We could not have made a better decision than to go with Mike and Kristina.

Mike and Kristina were absolutely incredible. I contacted them because I wanted professional-quality video of our proposal, and they did an amazing job. They even helped me make some of the decisions about exactly how and when I was going to propose. They drove almost 3 hours to my location at the Ritz-Carlton in Sarasota, and the results were absolutely terrific. We'll be using them for our wedding as well. Could not recommend them more highly!

Studio EightTwoNine was one of the best choices my daughter made for her April 26, 2014 wedding in Apopka, Florida! Their service is top quality!! They truly made this special day that much more special! Without doubt, they provided an extraordinary videography service from beginning to end! Their attention to detail and creative abilities by far exceeded any and all of our expectations! If anyone is looking for the best videography company in the business, they should look no further than Studio EightTwoNine!

My wife Sam and I had the pleasure of working with Mike and Kristina last Saturday the 15th. They are by far the best photographers in Central Florida. This goes beyond just the photos thenselves which are phenominal but its in the way they listen to your needs and take the time to plan out exactly how they will execute their sessions with you. They have an eye for elegant yet exponential detail in their photos and I will only recommend them when asked. Mike and Kristina thank you for leaving us with unforgettable memories we will never forget that night!

I absolutely loved Mike and Kristina's videos that were posted prior to my wedding. We are from Canada and had to do a lot of research since we were doing a destination wedding at disney world. I am so happy that I went with them. At first, I was not sure if I wanted a video at all but we just got back our highlight film and I am sooo in love with it. I have watched it 100 times and I have showed everyone. They were really friendly and easy to work with. I would only recommend them for video because there work is so amazing. Just like watching a movie. I am sooo happy I found them online and I can not wait for the full movie. They are very attentive to the little details and they care about what they do which makes the videos high quality!!!!!

When we got engaged, I knew immediately that choosing the right photographer/videographer would be a daunting task, as my fiancé is a professional photo/video editor for a very large local company. We scoured the internet & wedding websites for hours and days on end, and we finally stumbled upon 829 films... and I am THRILLED that we did.

When we met with Mike and Kristina, my fiancé put them through the ringer with all of his questions about style, technique, equipment, turnaround time, etc - Mike & Kristina passed his tests with flying colors!

We had our engagement session with 829films yesterday, and I have to admit - I was nervous. I am definitely uncomfortable in those types of situations... but shooting with Mike & Kristina was like shooting with old friends! They are so kind, sweet and professional; they make you feel SO at ease! It was like hanging out with good friends you've known forever - fun & effortless!

Not only that, but within just a few hours of the session, they posted GORGEOUS photos online! Our friends and family cannot stop complimenting us on them... and they are just a fraction of the final product!

Overall, Mike and Kristina have exceeded our expectations 1000 times over. We HIGHLY recommend them. They are the clear choice when it comes to Central Florida photographers/videographers... we will DEFINITELY be using them to capture many precious life memories in the years to come!

Mike and Kristina did an amazing job photographing our wedding! We couldn't be happier with how our photos turned out. They exceeded our expectations in every area. They were extremely professional and responsive before, during, and after the wedding. They made us feel comfortable during the entire process and were present to capture great shots for every moment that was important to us. These two are very talented and my wife and I highly recommend them.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Mike and Kristina of 829 Films are an incredible cinematography team! I have worked with them many times, and as a photographer it is SO important to find a cinema team that you can work well with. They are not only amazing at what they do, but they are warm, friendly and in love. Definitely the kind of people you want working your special day!

I am totally in love with 829films! We just did a wedding together a few weeks ago and when their "sneak peek" came out on their FB page I was blown away! They had some really different and gorgeous images. My own daughter, who was the maid of honor at this wedding said to me immediately, "Mom, I want them to do my wedding!" That's a pretty good endorsement, don't you think?
