Keith French Photography - absolutely professional and dedicated. Everything we have done with him…read morehave had excellent results. He talks with you about your needs, situation, equipment, etc and gives you his honest opinion about what your next steps should be. We have had prints made, corporate portraits taken, camera equipment repaired, passport photos taken, etc. I just brought in a nonworking 35mm camera (probably 15 years old) - with partially exposed film in it. He was able to work with it and pull prints off after it sat for over 6 years in that state! My husband received an award which we needed photographed for our web site. This is a VERY difficult piece to photograph due to all the angles and design of the piece - plus we needed a background color that matched our website. The photographs turned out beautiful! The work he does is always so professional, and done with great care. You definitely know his passion for his work. His classes are a lot of fun and truly informational - I certainly did not need to know anything about cameras coming in! His knowledge is so expansive that even the most seasoned professionals will be able to discuss their situations and needs with him as well - many camera stores I have been in have not been able to talk to me in terms I could understand. Keith, a United States Marine veteran, has supported many military and veteran events with his time and talent. He is a big part of the community - geographically and militarily - something we look for in our business relationships. His patience, passion, and commitment to his profession are very evident. I highly recommend Keith French Photography for all of your photographic needs.

Vanilla Video answered every single question and was very prompt in responding. What impressed me the most was the quality of their work. Their website showcases impressive videos, customer service and their profiles are phenomenal. During our contract, I faced some personal challenges, and Vanilla Video was one of the few vendors who showed genuine compassion and understanding. I will always be grateful to them for their kindness. I highly recommend Vanilla Video for their professionalism, compassion, and exceptional service. They are a winning combination and will make any special day even more memorable.

There are no words to describe the beauty of Delack's work. We ran across them about a year ago…read morethrough a friend's facebook post of their wedding trailer by Delack. Since that moment, after we watched every single one of their trailers on their website while drowning in tears, we KNEW without a doubt who we wanted to document our wedding! This was before we were even engaged! Once my husband did propose, our first call was to Nathan to check their availability. We based our date on their openings! Somehow, our favorite venue was available on the same day. We immediately booked and planned the wedding in 6 months. We were anxious to start working with Nathan, so we decided to do a "save the date" trailer to send out to our guests. WIthin a week or 2, we were shooting all around the city and having an amazing time with Nathan and his crew. The video was done in just a few days and it turned out better than our already high expectations! We put it on our website and sent it out via email. Our friends and family were sending it to others and everyone was talking about how amazing it was! It certainly gave our guests the feeling of something to look forward to! Our wedding day quickly arrived, and the anticipation for our "same day edit" was intensifying! Our guests did not know that a same day edit was taking place. After the first dance and speeches, my husband and I introduced the video. It was absolutely incredible. The entire room was in tears, and it was so amazing to see the day that had so quickly passed us by, captured in such a beautiful way. The crew was working diligently the entire day and even though it was done so quickly, it looked like something that took weeks to create! From the music, to the hollywood angles, flawless execution, and emotion in every scene, we couldn't have been more pleased with the results. We cannot wait to see the full video that Nathan and his crew at Delack have created for us. He has kept us updated and we hear it is just about finished. They work so hard and quickly...very professional as well!! Video of your wedding is the most incredible way to remember your day. But the way Delack captures every special moment and puts it together will without a doubt leave you speechless.

I came across one of his trailers on Facebook before my now-husband and I even got engaged! His work was so beautiful that it reduced me to tears (and I didn't even personally know the bride and groom!); I knew right away that Nathan (the owner and lead videographer) was a special talent and that I wanted to work with him. From our first contact, Nathan was extremely pleasant, professional, and responsive! I'm a little on the OCD side, so I loved how thorough he was and his amazing attention to detail. What's even better? On our wedding day, he and his team were so unobtrusive that we didn't even notice they were there! His rates are fairly expensive, but it's definitely some of the best money we spent. We cant wait to see our full film!

Since it was a warm night, they opened the garage door and our guests were able to use the patio as well. We put backyard games and some extra lighting out there and it was perfect. In addition to entertainment provided by the DJ we hired, my daughter and her band performed on stage. What's great about the venue is that it's a blank canvas and you can design any kind of party or theme you want. It's the perfect spot for kids, teens and adults. Rachel Millas, the events coordinator, was tremendously helpful and accommodating, both leading up to the party and during the party. Colin, the owner and engineer, was also great to work with. I would definitely consider hosting another event here in the future.

I'm obviously not even the bride but could not help myself from writing this review. Paul basically pulled off a miracle and at the wedding, played a video of the day's highlights. It was a short clip, only about 3 minutes, and only a preview of what's to come, but it was easily the most incredible video I have ever seen. The camerawork and angles were exquisite. Paul and his team are obviously professionals whose main goal is not just to invest in the end result, but into the bride's overall experience. My sister had no idea the video was coming and she was bawling. I was too - and I am not a crier! ;) Invest in this company for your wedding day - I do NOT think you could make a better choice for videographer anywhere else!!!
