I really appreciate all their help and I will be bringing them more movies soon. I love that they are local to me, and so I don't have to rely on USPS to ship my family treasures.

Sean Kurtela was absolutely fantastic to work with. We had a "Life Celebration" in memory of a…read morerecently deceased family member. Under a tight deadline, Sean prepared a series of video montages for the event, filmed the live event (including multiple camera angles), and created a beautiful video of the event that will serve as a lasting way to remember our beloved family member. Not only was the video work of excellent quality, but Sean was fantastic to work with -- I had some very specific ideas around both the montages as well as the final video and Sean was incredibly collaborative, open to feedback, and easy to work with to make sure what was delivered was what we were looking for. Also, his rates were reasonable... I felt he was very fair in what he charged, especially given the very high quality. We're very, very happy with the final product and grateful for Sean for all the hard (and good) work he put into this. I highly recommend Kurtela Video Productions!

I sent an email one night and got a response from Mared so quickly that it almost felt too good to be true. While some brides want the all-inclusive venue with everything provided, I really didn't care about expensive fancy chairs, in-house catering, florals, etc. I just wanted a space that allowed me to DIY as much as I could. Mac House provided me with the perfect blank slate that actually ended up having some bells and whistles that helped elevate my basic set-up, like customizable lighting and a convenient roll-up door that served as the perfect spot for our taco caterer. The team was very friendly and accommodating throughout the entire process and made me feel so comfortable in their space. Following their Instagram page, I learned that, aside from the amazing video production work they do, they are also involved in a variety of humanitarian initiatives. I'm happy to have been introduced to such an interesting local business and will stay in touch, even if just to root them on in their endeavors.

The #1 perk about Mac House has to be the flexibility of the space. Not only is there a large open…read morelobby, but there's also an entire studio in the back waiting to be decorated. The studio was large enough for 100 or so guests, 13 tables, two bars (one alcohol and one water/coffee/tea, and food buffet - plus a dance floor for everyone to dance on. Best of all, unlike many venues, you're welcome to use any vendor (party rentals, catering, etc) that you want. This was a huge plus for us! With a little imagination, we were able to transform the entire space to fit the 'Dancing Under The Stars' theme we dreamt up for our wedding reception. Since they're a video production studio, it was super easy talking with them about how to light the entire space. At the end of that night, my wife and I, and all our guests had the most wonderful evening!

They have a very extensive portfolio on their website, which I loved as it really gave me a sense of the style of filming and editing they do. Once I sent an inquiry, Christina was very responsive and informative. She was also great with communicating with us and our other vendors the few weeks leading up to the wedding, making sure her team's equipment would work with our DJ's audio setup. On wedding day, Christina was absolutely lovely to work with. As someone with no experience being on camera, I loved that she gave tips on suggested movements to make that appeared really natural and beautifully on camera. She made us feel at ease with all the advice. Christina's ability to speak Chinese was a great bonus - it made coordinating with our Chinese-speaking family members much easier and kept everyone on the same page. The finished products turned out amazing. I couldn't be happier with the videos provided and how well everything turned out. Thank you so much to Christina and the team for making our wedding day so special! I'd absolutely recommend working with Filmman Video for anyone looking for a wedding videographer - you definitely won't be disappointed with the results.

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. She also arrived early to check out the venue and find good locations. They helped us figure out how to pose and recorded shots in various angles. 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!

We went with Liquid Video Lab for our wedding and they absolutely crushed it…read more On the wedding day, the team was super easy to be around -- calm, friendly, and never in the way. Nothing felt awkward or staged, which was huge for us. They somehow managed to capture all the important moments without making it feel like there was a camera in our faces all day. And final product was amazing. The full wedding video turned out beautifully, but the wedding day trailer is what really blew us away. It perfectly captured the vibe, emotion, and little moments from the day. We've watched it so many times already and sent it to friends and family who all said the same thing: it feels like a movie. The editing, music, pacing -- it all just worked. Watching it brought us right back to the day and reminded us of moments we didn't even realize were being captured at the time. If you're even considering getting a wedding videographer, do it -- and if Liquid Video Lab is an option, don't overthink it. They delivered something we'll have forever, and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. Highly, highly recommend.
