I only had the opportunity to work with Arrow for renting equipment, but their EQ was extremely high quality for a very reasonable price, and what they didn't have in stock they were rapidly able to sub-rent. They also offer delivery, which I feel like is important to mention because that REALLY came in handy for me. My coordinator suggested their Studio as a PPM location, and while it didnt work out on this one, I'm thrilled to know their space exists for the next one. Arrow is a fantastic small business that really gives the big guys a run for their money. Can't wait to work with them again! A MUST WORK WITH for every production.

Yulia is exceptionally punctual, highly professional, and amazing at communicating and truly understanding client needs during our discussions. She has a stunningly refined and delicate aesthetic sense that perfectly captures the exact atmosphere and mood you're hoping for. The moment I received the first video, I was genuinely moved! Our shoot turned out to be much more demanding and took twice as long as originally planned (because I had so many specific requests), yet Yulia handled every challenge without a single complaint and produced results I could never have imagined. And amazingly, she accomplished all of this in just 3 days. I can only describe her as someone who works with real passion and dedication. If you're looking for a cinematographer who can beautifully express your project, I strongly and wholeheartedly recommend Yulia!

Greg did both photography and videography for my engagement party and one of his associates shot the photos from my bridal shower as Greg was not available that day and not only did they both do such an amazing job of capturing these precious moments, they were both such a pleasure to work with. At both events our guests were saying house nice the photographer was :). I will definitely continue to book Perrow Productions for future events and recommend Greg and his team to others as the work is excellent, the photographers are reliable, and it all comes at a fair price.

His presence at the event was warm and he showed up early with a big smile on his face. Once we synced on a couple of things, I never really had to touch base with him and trusted that he would shoot the event as we originally communicated. While he blended into the crowd seamlessly, he also managed to capture some really great moments that we will now always be able to look back on and cherish. The photos and videos turned out beautifully. We're so thankful. He estimated a week for final photos and videos, but to our delight he turned them around even sooner than anticipated! I would highly recommend Greg for your event and I am looking forward to the next time we can work together.

The absolute WORST venue tour experience I have ever had. From the moment we arrived, the entire…read moreinteraction felt extremely uncomfortable and unwelcoming. The way we were spoken to, the tone that was used, and the overall treatment left a very bad impression. Honestly, it felt like we were being judged based on our appearance and, quite frankly, I couldn't help but feel that there was discrimination based on the color of our skin. To call this a "tour" is honestly a joke. The woman barely showed us anything. Instead, she basically told us to walk around and look for ourselves because she had an event coming up. We were rushed through the entire experience, and it was made very clear that our presence was an inconvenience. What made the experience even more insulting was the assumption that I couldn't afford to rent the venue. I was offered cheaper options that I DID NOT ask for, and those options didn't even accommodate the number of guests I clearly stated I would have. I never asked for the cheapest package, nor did I ask how I could save money. The assumption was unnecessary, disrespectful, and completely unprofessional. If you're going to offer a venue to the public, you should treat EVERY potential client with the same level of respect, regardless of what they look like or what you assume their budget is. I came prepared to consider spending money at this facility, and instead I left feeling judged, rushed, and disrespected. Needless to say, after this experience, I would NEVER consider hosting my event here. First impressions matter, and this one was absolutely terrible.

Everyone was so professional and kind, and they didn't miss a single detail. Karen was there making sure everything was set up and running smoothly, and she was so professional and amazing. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone hosting a small or intimate event. The only downside to my experience was the balloon company I used from their preferred vendor list (Ravens Decor and More). I would say you definitely need to double check and even triple check to make sure Raven gets the balloon colors exactly right. Even though it was confirmed that she understood what I wanted, you can see the difference in the photos of what I requested and what I received. I told her I was hosting a classic Winnie the Pooh baby shower for my sister and wanted neutral colors (beige, sage, and blush) for a baby girl. After our phone call, she sent me an AI-generated mockup using those colors I asked for. I absolutely loved it, so I paid the $100 deposit and booked her services ($290 total). On the day of the shower, I was shocked and blindsided because the balloon colors looked nothing like the mockup or what I had requested. I understand an AI mockup won't be identical to the final product, but the difference was far greater than expected. I had also purchased balloons for the welcome sign in the same colors as the mockup, and the contrast between those and the balloon arch was obvious.Since guests were going to be arriving soon, I had no choice but to accept it and move on. My family and I believe strongly in respecting customer service and tipping, so I still gave her a 20% tip. My only regret was tipping that much instead of simply paying the remaining balance of $190 after she finished. I booked her based on the mockup she provided, but the final balloon colors were completely different. The colors were so different that they took away from the soft, neutral look I was trying to achieve for the shower. Overall, the baby shower was wonderful, and my sister had a great time. My only disappointment was that the balloon colors were so different from what I had specifically requested.
