Brian is amazing and so knowledgeable about many different genres of music. During the session, Brian made sure that our son could listen back to what he had played and continue to record as many times as needed. Brian also gave his feedback as to which recordings sounded best. We have used this recording studio three times now and have enjoyed Brian's anecdotes regarding the music business. My husband has found a kindred spirit as Brian is also a big Rush fan.

My husband needed to find a videographer stat on a Sunday afternoon to shoot some film at an LPGA…read moreevent in Menlo Park. While he was panicking on the phone trying to find someone who knew a videographer, I did a Yelp search and decided to call Bay Tiger. I explained our "emergency" to Ken when he answered the phone. He said he could probably help us so I handed the phone over to my husband. They quickly worked out the details and agreed on a budget, at which point Ken abandoned his Sunday workout, got in the car and made it to Menlo Park in time to shoot the film that was needed. He also did some quick turnaround editing-as in overnight. While I didn't interact with him beyond the initial phone contact, my husband said that he was extremely professional and very good at what he does. I was tremendously impressed that not only did he answer his phone on a Sunday, he was willing to turn his day upside down to accommodate our request.

He put more time and effort into it than we could have imagined. He was well-underpaid for his work ethic, production, shooting capabilities and editing.

Until our next shoot!!! Matt

We had multiple meetings before the wedding day and she provided helpful tips and a checklist of items to have prepared for some cinematic shots.

We didn't pick a great location for our sunset photos/video shoot, but our photographer and Christina searched & found the perfect location to capture the sunset and amazing shots with the drone. Christina sent us our edited video less than a week after our wedding. We also really appreciated she provided us with a USB that had the full-day video clips. Highly recommend 10/10!
