Joanes chose to do a short informational video about our program (the Harlem YMCA Literacy Zone) as…read morea way to give back to the community. As a non-profit community based program, our budgets are always very tight so we rarely can afford to have professional "marketing" materials made about our services, so we were thrilled when Joanes volunteered his skills and expertise. As a filmmaker and videographer, Joanes was very meticulous and professional. He took the time to really get to know our program and the space. On the day of filming, he spent the entire day with our program staff and participants, conducting interviews and capturing our classes in action. Afterwards, he must have spent hours editing the video himself and putting the final product together, and the care he took really shows in the final product! I don't think I can leave a link to the video here -- but you should definitely check out his work!

We hired Le Image for our wedding and I'm so grateful we made that choice. Ada and Frank were…read morephenomenal to work with. They were friendly, easy to work with, kind, rolled with the punches (our venue was sorta rained out and we had to switch the ceremony inside) and we received incredible images from them. Ada and Frank worked with the last minute circumstances with grace. They both were on time and worked hard to get great shots at the venue while our wedding party was getting ready. They made me and my husband very comfortable and they were not in the way like other photographers & videographers. They made sure we received all of the planned shots we wanted outside of the venue and made sure the shots were fun and creative. The samples were perfect and the video of our wedding was a masterpiece. My husband and I both cried the first time we watched it. They captured our wedding beautifully. I even loved working with Josephine (she helped us coordinate everything before our wedding). Le Image is an all around class act of a company. I've been telling everyone I know to use them for weddings and other special events.

I was doing some top-secret Covid Compliance Officer work for a television production and they were…read moreutilizing the spaces over at Gum Studios in Sunset Park Brooklyn. Though there were a couple of staff people onsite, the best way to view this is like a rehearsal space for the bands where you have the control of the space you are renting. The layout of where we were was nicely setup. There were a number of small cubicles where I was told sometimes people rent to use as a remote office but since this was a television production, we just needed the large room and the couple of smaller ones for staff, talent and crew. It was very clean and the staff I met very helpful and friendly. As the Covid officer my task was monitoring how everyone was behaving in these pandemic times. Are you wearing a mask, do you have a temperature, do you have proof of vaccination etc. While it sounds tedious this is work that is aimed at keeping you safe and sound. The studio seemed to provide numerous folding chairs and some tables and there is an open WiFi signal for those doing work there which made it easier to keep in touch with the managers. As someone who doesn't need to rent such a space for a production I cannot speak to pricing but there were about 30 in total and everyone had room. There are a number of bathrooms and one larger one that even has a shower if you are one who ends up pulling an all-nighter. They even have a fully functional kitchen but the supplies are all on the person renting the space. I think this is a proper location for Broadway and film rehearsals or podcasting or setting up a smaller video production. I hope to work there again. Nice going Gum Studios. Thanks for the branded swag as well (hand sanitizer, pen and pencil, charger and some buttons). I'm a fan,

Be forewarned - this is less of a review but a romance novel starring our photographer, Danny…read moreBergin of Chellise Michael Photography (CMP), as its main protagonist. In photographs I typically have either RBF or a double chin because I'm usually laughing. I also cringe at the standard posed wedding photography and knew right off the bat that it would be a mission to find a wedding photographer that would be up for the challenge. So if you're like me, you may dread the thought of choosing a wedding photographer. It was by chance that I came across CMP's photographs while browsing on Pinterest. They immediately caught my eye; they were editorial, intimate and full of personality. Bottom line - stunning. Fortunately CMP had one photographer available for our date -- Danny. We lucked out because he is not only extremely talented in his craft, but also a total gem of a person. The photographs from our engagement shoot (WHICH COMES WITH YOUR PACKAGE AND IS AN AMAZING BENEFIT OF CMP'S SERVICES) made it immediately clear that Danny has a superb eye and was able to capture our personality as a couple. I've been non-stop spamming friends and family with our wedding photographs since we've received them; and which Danny delivered in record time. I'm in complete awe of how Danny was able to capture the vibe of our wedding in such a natural way. It goes without saying that wedding photographs aren't just for the couple, but also for the friends and family. So I want to share some verbatim messages I received from our attendees (who include people who work in the fashion industry, my highly critical family and people who have gone to at least 8 weddings last year) which really underscore Danny's stellar photography skills: "HOLY $H!T YOUR WEDDING PHOTOS!! I'm obsessed with all of them!" "The photos really capture you guys" "I'm done. Unwell this aesthetic. who is this photographer?!" "Your photographer was on it! They did a really great job!" "This photographer is magic brah" Last but not least, I want to recognize qualities of CMP that while searching for a wedding photographer I had not recognized were absolutely essential until I saw them in action: (1) a commitment to easy scheduling for discussing your needs and dates and for the engagement shoot; (2) clear instructions and constant communication on when the photographs will be delivered, guides for the photo shoots and how to view your photos; (3) a photographer with great personality that puts everyone at ease; and (4) flexibility and ability to provide for their customer's needs and implement their customer's vision. All in all, due to Danny -- our knight in shining corduroy -- we will live happily ever after.

We are simply enthralled by the incredible artistry and creative narrative vision of Mike,…read moreChellise, and their team. Their ability to capture authenticity, beauty, meaning-- and even the sublime-- went way above and beyond any of our expectations. I was absolutely captivated by their portfolio-- the narrative, colors, composition, perspective. We were having a very small casual wedding, so I honestly wondered, would it still make sense to invest ourselves in photos? I am so glad that we did. I searched high and low online, but I kept coming back to their portfolio --beautiful yet edgy, current, and distinctive. After meeting with Mike at his Bushwick studio, we decided to go for it. I keep thinking of the word Zeitgeist (if that happens to mean something to you)-- the idea that art and culture are intertwined, that individuals and their works are products of their time and culture-- this is what you have with Mike & Chellise-- the ability not only to create beautiful amazing portraits and memories of important moments but also to be part of the artistic and inspired zeitgeist of Brooklyn/NY now. It's like you have the chance to be doing your band photoshoot, except that it happens to be your engagement photoshoot. My partner and I both didn't want traditional engagement photos-- we both love modern and contemporary art, cinema, and the eclectic visionaries who bring their own individual perspective to their work (Cindy Sherman, Alejandro Jodorowsky, Vito Acconci, Ryan Trecartin, Laurel Nakadate, to name a few). In particular, we enjoy the rich saturated hues and style of 1960s Italian (a la Dario Argento) and French New Wave cinema, so we wanted to recreate those moments in our portraits. Mike and Chellise and Kelli made it happen. And our portrait session photoshoot was as fun, memorable, and as exciting as our wedding itself... and the photos are simply incredible. Not only that, but they bring genuine positive and relaxed energy, which is really important, especially for the wedding day. Mike and his team are friendly, professional, timely, and super-efficient and effective. You could not ask for better event/portrait/wedding photographers. True talented artists.

The one thing MY ENTIRE FAMILY regrets about my wedding was deciding to go with Corey for our…read morewedding pictures and videos. He rarely replied to emails. Literally had to bombard him or call him day after day. He was MIA for the important moments, and multiple people had to go looking for where he was all the time. Work was super amateur. I'm Indian and we have Indian dances and he recorded the brides ENTIRE DANCE FROM A BACK VIEW. We had multiple events that he recorded - 3 to be exact totaling probably 11-14 hours all together, but the raw footage he sent us is ONLY 5 hours. His work blatantly is horrible. He didn't even have guidance or ideas for good pictures. I was picking the scenery/ poses instead of the photographer/ owner of the company himself Corey! I have friends who have better pictures of me and themselves at my wedding than what Corey "professionally" took! If u paid a deposit, get it back. If you're stuck with him, don't pay him in full until you get your pictures/ video. You'll know what I mean! From my wedding of 3 different events over 12-14 hours... I have a total of 4 pictures of me and my husband that I like.

Working with Faymus Media has been a terrible experience since day 1. I found Corey (owner) on…read moreThumbtack and spoke directly with him before I hired him for my brother's wedding. He went through everything I could expect to receive with his videographer package, promised me multiple times the services would be for the ENTIRE day with full reception included, and he also spoke to HIS experience with Greek weddings and made me believe he would be filming the wedding. When the day came, another random subcontractor showed up to film and disappeared 2.5 hours early from the reception without a word. Aside from the bridal party, we had 0 footage of anyone dancing at the reception because of this. He reimbursed me slightly, but I will still never have the footage which is upsetting. It is now 12 weeks after the wedding, and I still have not received my 30-90min ceremony film that I was promised, and Corey will hardly respond to my emails and calls, but when he did, he decided to blame the videographer he hired for this. The videographer then told me Corey never paid him at all for any of his work and wouldn't let him create the film for me, so I have no idea who is telling me the truth, or why I still haven't received everything I paid for, but the process has been so miserable. I do not recommend Faymus Media to anyone. They tell you one thing and do another, and have no regard for customer service or make any attempt to fix their wrongs or deliver on their promises. If you are considering them for an event, and have any questions about my experience, please feel free to reach out.
