About

After 10 years of filming weddings, I have realized what it is that I truly love, and it is YOU. Your story is what drives me to keep creating, to keep pushing, and to keep growing. I have been part of so many incredible personal moments, memories, laughs, tears, and emotions over the past decade. I understand the magnitude of what it is I do. These are your memories, I get one shot to do them right. I can’t go back and capture the moment after it is over. That is why so many trust in what I do. I don’t promise to be perfect, but I do promise to do everything I can to tell your story the way it should be told. I am honored that you are considering me for your wedding!

Reviews of VBM Productions

Highly Recommend VBM Productions!

Melvin was fantastic. His attention to detail was second to none. Somehow, he convinced us to give up creative control, not an easy task. But, we are happy that we did. Melvin told our story in a way that we couldn’t have. He included an extra edit for a pre-ceremony performance that was a tribute to my grandfather who passed the year before. He knew how important it was. The ceremony and reception edits were smooth and helped encapsulate the emotion of our day. Even better, he knew what to cut and what to keep. The sound edits were perfect especially considering I curse like a sailor (he knew to take them out). The video quality was exceptional and it felt like we were back on our wedding day watching it. As people who aren’t comfortable being on camera, we were concerned with how visible he’d be throughout our day. As he promised, we saw him once the whole night! Melvin is a fantastic videographer and a great storyteller. A real professional. Highly recommend.

VBM is Amazing!

Melvin of VBM is an amazing videographer ! Our wedding video came out absolutely beautiful! I feel like I relive that moment every time I watch it. His attention to detail are what set him apart from the rest. Our video looks like something out of a fairytale, I literally tear up every time I watch it. We are so incredibly blessed to have had Melvin share his amazing talent with us and capture our day. Having video was the piece that tied the entire day together. If you are looking for video you will not regret having VBM, Melvin is truly amazing! Thank you Melvin!

Great experience!

While planning our wedding, we thought a videographer would be a fun addition if we could afford it. After meeting Melvin and watching his samples we knew this was something we needed. Now, a few months after our wedding, we are so happy with the final output from Melvin and his team. They managed to capture not just the moments but also the feeling of the day. It gives us the chance to relive such a special event with friends and family. The drone footage was an especially great way to show off a beautiful New England fall day.
Melvin and team were a delight to work with on the day and we would recommend him to anyone looking to capture the memories of their special day.

A Videographer That Goes Above and Beyond

We had originally hired Melvin and VBM Productions to film just our wedding ceremony. However, Melvin truly went above and beyond for us in every single way. The VBM team was there throughout the whole day to capture everything, even the toasts and our first dance. Then, they produced an outstanding highlight reel for us that included beautiful drone shots of our family barn/wedding venue, in addition to some priceless moments throughout the day. The turnaround time was also incredibly fast! Melvin truly blew all our expectations away and we could not be happier with our wedding videos. These videos will be treasured for many years to come. Melvin and VBM Productions get our highest recommendation! To the couples out there getting married- if you are on the fence about hiring a videographer, just do it, you will not regret it. It is worth every penny to capture your special day! Thank you to Melvin and VBM Productions!

Flexible, Prompt, and Professional

Like many couples I hear about, my husband and I weren't sure we wanted a videographer at first, but after seeing the result, I am so glad that we did - and I am even more glad that we chose Melvin at VBMProductions. Melvin was responsive to our needs and worked within our budget to capture what we felt was important from our day. He always communicated clearly, and was friendly and professional throughout the entire experience. He had our wedding videos ready for us in record time, and even when we asked for something to be changed, he worked with us and delivered exactly what we asked for. I would recommend Melvin without a doubt to any couple who may be on the fence about videography for their wedding; you won't be disappointed!

Beautiful wedding videography

My wife & I used Melvin for our wedding videography and we just can't say enough how happy we are with our experience. The videos, highlight reel for sharing with family & friends and on social media as well as the normal ceremony & reception videos were absolutely amazing. We can watch the videos every day and still be amazed at the quality and attention to the smallest details. I highly recommend VBM Productions for your event and if I could give more than 5 stars I would.

So amazing

VBM Productions was recommended to me by a co worker who’s friend had just gotten married at the same location I was going to get married at. I fell in love with the video quality and how it well it was put together, so I knew I had to contact them for my big day. Melvin was absolutely incredible. Not only did he respond quickly to my emails since day one, he would email to check in with me every so often until the wedding day. Working with VBM Productions was such a pleasure, and the Instagram preview video was so beautiful it had my husband and I in tears. 11/10 would recommend
