Serena captured the day beautifully, taking stunning photos in the morning and transitioning seamlessly into videography for the rest of the event. Her professionalism, creativity, and eye for detail were evident in every shot. The final images were absolutely spectacular, and the video footage was equally impressive. She even went the extra mile by creating a social media reel for us, which turned out beautifully and captured the spirit of the day perfectly. Serena is truly wonderful to work with--easygoing, communicative, and incredibly talented. I highly recommend Creative Ideation to anyone looking for top-tier photography and video work.

I would also like to give major props to Patrick, who was happy to be super collaborative about the editing process and let me come sit in while he put most of it together (our team is very opinionated).

We will definitely be back for second cuts to the same footage and for future projects.

It's been a pleasure working with DMV Productions and we look forward to our next project together!

My wife and I heard about Toy Box Studios from an event coordinator who worked at Westfields…read moreMarriott. She and her fiance at the time were using TBS's services as well for their wedding. So, I took a look at their website and instantly fell in love with their work. Their wedding story videos go beyond simply showing you each part of the day. Somehow they always find a way to convey a story in the day's footage that tugs at your heart strings. Besides our final video, which my wife and I have viewed way too many times already, I would say that the best thing about TBS is that Ian and Mark were invisible during our wedding. They don't get in the way like other videographers I've seen at other weddings. There were many scenes in our video where I was marveling and saying, "Wow, I did't even notice them there! How'd they get that shot?" The equipment they used were unobtrusive in size, but still very high in quality. We can't say enough good things about Ian, Mark, and Kari. They work well as a team and were absolutely on top of everything from the very first e-mails we sent and the very first time we met to the delivery of our video and thumb drive. Our video was given to us sooner than expected, which we were thrilled about! We absolutely recommend Toy Box Studios to any couples out there reading this looking for a videography team. They are worth every penny! Thank you so much, TBS, for capturing our wedding day and giving us lasting memories and images from the best day of our lives.

Highly recommend them! - Erum :)

If you're looking to work with a videographer who can turn your idea into a vision and then some,…read moreno need to look any further - you found him. As a creative content administrator for a brand marketing consultant agency, I have worked with my fair share of videographers, photographers, directors. None of them, however, were able to capture the idea I created in my head. Although the content produced by former companies is high quality, the end result was never what I had imagined. To be clear, the videos were amazing and unique in their own way, but I always felt it was ALMOST there or it was MISSING something. Then I was introduced to Shawn - via conference call - and my love affair with Innovideo Productions began. The best word I can use to describe the quality and execution of Shawn's work ethic and style... PHENOMENAL. Behind the camera, he is nothing but innovative. His organic sense of creative direction is incredible and his attention to detail is immaculate! The visions that I had dreamed and created while creating the content were immediately erased from my mind after reviewing a "rough cut/edit" of Shawn's work and I didn't think it could get any better...but it did. Upon seeing the final version for the first project I worked on with Shawn, words cannot even begin to describe how taken aback I was. He did an unbelievably amazing job. I can't imagine working with anyone else. Helpful, reliable, communicative and patient, Shawn is one of the most skilled people I've ever worked with. Reasonably priced and quick on the turn around times, Shawn's personable professionalism is what makes him and his brand unique. Not only does he come highly recommended and prepared, he transforms your projects into something so much more than you could've ever imagined.

The quality of his work far surpasses any other videographer I have worked with. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Having worked with a couple different videographers in the past, I know that turn around time for the work, quality of the work and user-friendliness is a BIG deal. So to have a company who hits all those and doesn't charge crazy exorbitant prices is a godsend. We will use Innovideo forever, and recommend them wholeheartedly!

WOW! I was really surprised to read all the negative reviews…read moreabout this place. I'm glad I didn't see them before otherwise I most likely would have passed on using Mr. Video. I actually had a great experience. I found them online and requested an estimate. Someone from the sales dept replied immediately. I decided to use them and when I arrived to pick up my equipment I saw the screen I reserved was much larger than I had imagined. The receptionist and the AV person switched it out for me without complaint. I arrived to return the equipment an hour before they opened not realizing they didn't open until 10am. I was sick with the flu and trying to hurry to a doctors appointment as soon as possible. I called and spoke with someone who said the AV person was on his way and she would let him know to come early if he could. 20 minutes later I had turned everything in and was on my way to the doctor. I would absolutely recommend this vendor. They were friendly, professional and knowledgeable with amazing customer service. Kudos!

I am a volunteer for a local non-profit organization that provides services for the elderly. This…read moreorganization rented a pair of stereo speakers with built in amplifiers (Mackie Speakers 15". SRM 450) from Mr. Video on July 3rd 2010 for use on our float in the annual Palisades 4th July parade. After around one hour of use in the parade one of the speakers emitted smoke, caught fire and then stopped working. According to the user manual the speakers have a thermal protection circuit that is supposed to cut the power to the amp and speaker if it overheats. This circuit malfunctioned causing the built in amp to burn up. We continued with the remaining speaker but the effectiveness of the float was compromised. Worse still, upon return of the equipment Mr Video charged $600.00 for a new replacement speaker. This is akin to a customer experiencing a roadside breakdown on a rental car and then being billed for the repair! The speakers were brand new and subject to a 5 year warranty in case of failure so it would appear that Mr. Video may have been attempting to have the unit repaired under warranty and in addition be paid for a brand new unit. After several months of fruitless correspondence with Mr Video the credit card company agreed that an injustice had occurred and charged back the $600.00. Also the units were powered from a car battery then through a DC to AC inverter. This inverter emitted a very loud buzzing interference throughout the operation of the speakers. A replacement inverter was provided but the problem repeated. Needless to say we won't be using this unscrupulous outfit ever again.
