Easy 5 stars! Mark and his team did a phenomenal job! In fact, they do such a good job you forget they are even there throughout the day (in the best way possible). The flow/edit of the final wedding video was better than anything we could have imagined. He was able to capture each big/small/important part of the wedding that happened, in a way that encapsulated the entire wedding from start to finish. When we watched the film, it felt like we were reliving the day but also seeing it for the first time from different angles. The picture/sound quality are also top notch (bonus: neither of us brides had to wear a mic pac!). Beyond the amazing professional work Mark did, he is personally extremely warm and pleasant to be around. He brings a sense of calm confidence to the wedding (which is great energy to be around for a nervous bride on the big day)! I would easily recommend and trust Mark and his team to capture your big day :) read more

I was part of the bridal party at a wedding that Mountain Fresh filmed last week, and I have to say, this company truly goes above and beyond. I had a fitting issue with my button up shirt, and Manny, one of their videographers, actually switched shirts with me to help save the day. Any company that fosters a culture of going the extra mile for their clients like this is rare. Thank you, Mountain Fresh, and especially Manny, for taking such great care of my friends Jayde and David on their wedding day. read more

I just got married last week so didn't get my film yet. However, I had a two day celebration in which we requested to see if Mark would be able to turn around a video in less than 24 hours so we can play a snippet during our second celebration. He was on top of it getting it to us by the time we woke up the next day. He was so sweet and so easy to work with. I can't wait to see the results of our full video. To make it even better he had an employee named Manny who saved the day. As the bride, nobody wanted to say anything to me until after, but apparently one of my groomsmen's black shirt didn't fit. however Manny, who worked with Mark was able to switch shirts with my groomsmen and saved my ceremony and my sanity. Overall, their customer service goes above and beyond and I am so glad I went with Mountain fresh films. Thank you so much to Mark and his employees for such a wonderful experience. read more

We couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding, and we are so happy that Mountain Fresh Films was able to film our special day. For the busy couples who need a TLDR: Mark provides attention to details, communicates well, is very kind and understanding, and will take his time to ensure that he understands your expectation for your special day. Attention to details: This is totally unnecessary on his part, but he notified us a few days prior re: weather conditions up in the mountains and whether or not there will be road closures so that we (and our guests) can be prepared in case of any detours. You can tell that he really cares about his clients. Communicates well: He made sure to schedule an introductory meeting with both me and my husband, PLUS a follow up meeting closer to the wedding to make sure that all the details are ironed out. We were able to reach out to him via email, phone, and text especially closer to the big day. And he was also prompt with his responses, and is generally very easy to talk to. Kind and understanding: He worked with us in creating a package we really wanted. My husband was very particular in what he wanted captured, and Mark was kind enough to create an individualized package that was excellent and fair in pricing. We are so thankful for him, as budget is one of the more stressful areas in wedding planning! Overall, don't overthink it and hire Mountain Fresh Films for your big day. Mark has years of experience, and he will surely help you through one of your most special (and stressful) day. read more

Working with Mark and his team was absolutely amazing. From start to finish, he took my ideas and thoughts and helped capture them beautifully to bring our wedding video to life. Working with someone who lets you have some creative input was a dream. He captured moments from our day that I would of not seen otherwise and brought me to tears. Working through a pandemic was tough enough but I am so appreciative of his kindness and patience and willingness to do all he could to help us through all the changes we had to deal with because of covid. We are beyond happy with our film and can't thank Mark enough! We would recommend him a million times Our date was August 29, 2020 read more

Mountain Fresh Films - Just a frame from our wedding video - Videographers Near Me

Composed by my wife who is much better at these reviews than I am: Quick and to the point review for those who don't have time to read a lot: Mark Cade, of Mountain Fresh Films, is awesome! He is a wonderful videographer and person overall! Working with him was both easy and stress-free. He is polite, patient, and professional from beginning to end. And he is PASSIONATE about what he does. The second shooter he hired for our wedding was also very polite, patient, and professional! By the quality of staff he hires, this just showed us how much Mark values good work and serving his clients with the best. He is exactly what a bride and groom needs on their special day. My husband and I are SO lucky we found Mark and we have absolutely NO regrets. Go with Mark and you will NOT be disappointed. Wishing whoever is reading this a stress-free wedding and happy marriage. :) Detailed review for those that want to know a little more: Contacting and communicating with Mark was very easy! He responded to my emails pretty much immediately and never kept us waiting. He always let us know if he was going to be away at any time and couldn't respond right away. Even with that, he responded quickly. What we loved about him was his very clear communication. I am a planner and I like to ask a lot of questions to make sure I get every detail. From my first email inquiring of his services to the day before the wedding, I was asking him questions and he was responding to them all. Never did he ever make me feel like I was being a bother and that I should just stop asking him questions. He is welcoming of any questions you have and will answer all of them patiently and kindly in a timely manner. On the wedding day, he and his second shooter were on-time, professional, and they never got in the way of our family or guests. They blended in the background and on the sides while taking video as to not interrupt conversations or the ceremony. He never asked anyone to pose or fake something for the camera. He is all about capturing the real and organic stuff, which we like. He was polite to our family and guests. To this day, our families talk about how polite and nice Mark is. Because COVID was still lingering and vaccines were still pretty new at the time, we asked if he could wear his mask for the entire wedding. Without hesitation, he said yes. On the wedding day, both he and his second shooter wore masks for us the entire time. We really appreciated that because asking others to wear a mask can be quite difficult as a lot of people are opposed to it. This just shows that Mark really is all about making the couple feel comfortable and that he would do anything needed to not add further stress to the couple's special day. Don't be afraid to ask him for what you need or share your concerns. He is seriously such a wonderful and caring person. He not only was our videographer, but he was also a supportive friend. From our experience with Mark, we learned that he LOVES what he does. He loves videography and capturing the beautiful moments in weddings (or in any event). With that combination, he is able to produce FANTASTIC work. And it showed in our video. Normally, I would try to find samples of what other couples do and request for similar things that I've seen others do. However, I didn't do that with Mark. Through talking with Mark, I felt that I didn't need to "direct" him and tell him what he should do to capture my husband and I in the most real way. I felt that I could just let him do his work his way without worrying that he would miss something. And my feeling was right. When we watched the video for the first time, we were so impressed!!! When we watched it, we didn't feel like he exaggerated what we or the day looked like. He kept it as real as the day was and he captured moments that we could watch for the rest of our lives. I have a hard time seeing myself on camera or in pictures without cringing. But there was no cringing when we watched the final video. There were a lot of tears and smiles, but no cringing. Don't know how he does it. BUT HE DID. Go with Mountain Fresh Films. You will not regret it! read more

Mark Cade with Mountain Fresh Films was the videographer during our wedding on July 24, 2020. Due to Covid, we had to downsize our wedding from 200 to 20 people, so we decided (pretty last minute!) that we wanted the ceremony recorded for all our guests we couldn't have in person. Even though we reached out just a few weeks before the wedding, Mark was incredibly accommodating! He scheduled two calls for us in advance so that we would know all the details for the day of the wedding. When we met him in person, he was very kind and congratulatory. He interacted well with my mom and our families as well. He made us feel special and overall so happy that we went with him!! The video itself was incredibly well done, and btw he worked super hard!!! He emailed us at 4 AM after the wedding saying that he just finished the editing for our "rough cut", and by 6 AM he sent us the link with the video! We requested a quick turn around time with little editing so that our family could watch it closer to the wedding time, and he went ABOVE AND BEYOND. Literally we could not be be happier. Personally, such a kind person. Professionally, he was hard-working, cordial, and overall incredible! Everything you could ask for in a wedding vendor!! read more

If you are looking for a videographer look no further! My wife and I was referred to Mark Cade and Mountain Fresh Films by another vendor and Mark blew us out of the water with his professionalism, customer service and skill. Our wedding was on the 21st of January 2017. For those that are familiar with the San Bernardino mountains that weekend was the biggest storm in the last 10 years. Mark left early and made it through the snow to ensure my wife and I got footage of our special day. Mark did more than his job description by offering us solid advise and even helped with other vendors. Mark is amazing in what he does and we could not have asked for a better service from him. Thank you Mark! read more

We highly recommend Mark with Mountain Fresh Films to anyone! Words cannot express our gratitude, Mark and his team are very easy to work with and turned our 5 star wedding into a 10 star wedding! He highly exceeded all our expectations. We're blown away by how good our wedding video he created turned out and this is something for us to cherish forever. Our wedding day flew by, the entire day felt like 15 minutes to us, our photos turned out wonderful but the video is what brings those memories to life, our entire wedding day was captured by Mark and his team and we're beyond thankful we have this to look back on and relive our wedding day again and again every time we watch it. We enjoyed working with Mark so much and will refer and recommend him to anyone in the future. Also I advise any couple getting married a good videographer is something you don't realize is a necessity, this is something you will have forever after the wedding is done and something that brings your wedding memories back every time you watch your video. Highly Highly Highly recommend Mountain Fresh Films! Thanks again! The Ruggs :) read more

Mark did an amazing job on my wedding video. As we all know weddings are not cheap and the costs pile on, however it is 100% worth it to get a video. I am soooo happy with the final result .

Mark is exceptional. He's an invested professional but a truly great person with a warm and caring spirit. Before mtg mark in person we randomly ran into him in lake arrowhead and knew it was him! Instant familial connection. He went above and beyond to make sure our wedding was captured and archived in a truly special way. He caught every moment big and little. He caught facial expressions. Secret I love yous. And masterfully pieced together our wedding into a true work of art. He's amazing at his craft and really cares for his clients. We are so grateful for mark in our wedding and in our lives. Couldn't recommend him any higher. Your wedding will be better w Mark! We adore him. read more

Mark is one of coolest people I have ever worked with! We have done a couple weddings and a film festival with him and he is always accommodating. He is professional and his HD video quality is incredible. He goes the extra mile to find the best quality audio files to make your finished product a masterpiece. You can't go wrong with Mountain Video Service. read more

It was a pleasure working with Mark, and that is saying a lot because of the stressful and sad occasion we asked him to videotape. We put together a Celebration of Life for our son, and Mark was sensitive and caring both in the planning stage and also during the service. He was great at keeping us informed of his progress on the presentation, and we were so pleased and grateful with the finished video. He also included interviews with some of the family and friends that we were not aware of, and so enjoyed watching afterward. Including video shots of the beautiful surroundings and incorporated audio seamlessly together, he edited and put together a wonderful production-quality piece that we will treasure forever. For those family and friends who could not attend, he spent quite a bit of time setting up a webpage so that we could share it for those who missed being there. Mark is a person of integrity and great work ethic, making it a lasting warm memory for us. We will be forever thankful for his caring heart. read more

Mark is incredible. If you're looking for a videographer, we can highly recommend Mark. Our first interaction with Mark was a meeting where he showed us what was possible, and man, there was so much potential. You can see the passion and energy he puts into his work. Even though we couldn't afford any of his extraordinary bells and whistles, he was happy cater to our needs. He asked all the questions up front, giving us ample time to figure things out, and ensuring that we were able to give him the best information. On the big day, he was extremely professional, making sure all the equipment was set up and his team was ready. He even made time to ensure that the groom was ready for his mic. Mark is a man who knows his business. He was exactly who we wanted to hire, even if we didn't know anything about it when we started. read more

Our wedding video has become our favorite momento from our wedding day and we will cherish it for a very long time. Mark did an amazing job capturing not only the details of our special day but the over all spirit of the day, too. He was a pleasure to have at our wedding, too, which is a very important quality in a vendor! We highly recommend Mountain Video Service! read more

Mark was the videographer for our wedding in Big Bear, Ca on September 16,2017. We couldn't be more happy with our choice! From the beginning, Mark was so easy to work with. At out initial meeting, he answered all of our questions and provided lots of examples of his work. He was also more than willing to work with some of our unique requests. In the months leading up to our wedding, Mark communicated well with us and helped us create a payment plan that we were comfortable with. On the day of our wedding, Mark was on time, professional, and a joy to work with. We even received several compliments from our guests regarding Marks professional manner and ease. Thank you, Mark, for working with us! read more

I am so glad I went with Mark to do our wedding video. He was on time, professional, friendly, and does quality work. He captured the most important memories and I would recommend him to anyone! read more

Mark and his team performed videographer duties at our wedding in June and we were so thrilled with the process and results I simply had to write a review for him. From the first introduction, through every interaction, Mark was an absolute pleasure to deal with and through the process eventually became more like a friend then a vendor. He is extremely friendly, smart, and totally determined to work his tail off for you and your wedding. We enjoyed every interaction, including his quiet way of working during the ceremony, and that was even before we received the video. That said we absolutely adore our video. We love that it's so well done, yet so simple and tasteful with perfectly matched music. It's a little over an hour long, shows our friends and family before hand, including the beautiful venue with all the décor, and the ceremony in it's entirety. It's the perfect way to celebrate our favorite day versus lugging out a large photo book, which he saved us from. 100% recommend. Thanks again, Mark! read more

Mark was one of the most professional vendors we dealt with for any event, not just our wedding. He was fun and interactive and really made us feel comfortable with the whole process. From our first meeting with him we knew he would make a video that we would forever cherish. He went above and beyond the call of duty, and we will forever be grate full to him. Anyone looking for a wedding video they will want to watch at every anniversary should give mark a call. read more

Mark filmed an acting reel for me and I couldn't be happier with the way it turned out. He's so professional, extremely easy to work with, and most importantly, the quality of his work is fantastic! It is so important to feel comfortable and relaxed when you're on camera, and Mark's professionalism and down to earth attitude put me completely at ease. Highly recommended - thanks Mark! read more
