When we were planning for our wedding, my fiancé and I set a budget – which soon began to expand as we realized how expensive getting married could be. We decided where we could cut costs by considering what was most important to us. The invitations or the videographer? More decorations or the photographer? Fortunately some things were discounted for us because we had friends who could provide us the services we needed. Or at least so we thought! Although we did get an incredible deal on a wedding planner, florist and decorator, our experience with our photographer was much less than what we expected. Everything was late, and I do mean EVERYTHING! From the arrival on the wedding day, to the posting of the pictures online, to receiving out photos, and last but not least, our coffee table photo book. We did not receive our photos until a year and a half after the wedding, and our coffee table book arrived about two weeks before our second anniversary. Despite the fact that the photographer took incredible pictures, not having anything to show after paying a good deal of money (even with the discount) was frustrating and left us disappointed and enraged. If we had to do it all over again, we would have shelled out an additional $1000 or $1500 to get great photos in a more timely manner. Dealing with a family friend as a vendor can be difficult because you have a history with that person, and it is hard to be demanding and threaten to sue for the services not rendered or completed. Your pictures and video are probably THE most important services for your wedding day. My advice: don’t skimp. Also, make sure you hire a photographer and videographer who do weddings as a full time business. People who have other full time jobs will typically not be as seasoned and may forget to include important photos or footage you want. Find the best in the industry and make the sacrifice to pay for excellence! We had a superb experience with Jan Horne and Studio 25 Productions – she exceeded our expectations and we definitely got what we paid for!!

Josh & I just want to thank you so much for this amazing memory that you have created for us! We are so pleased with what you have done and it was worth the wait. You were incredible on the wedding day and your hard work shows through on the video. There were so many things I did not get to see and so many things that I missed and now I can watch it over and over if I want. I can’t say thank you enough for what you created for us!

We just watched the whole thing. OH MY GOODNESS! We absolutely love it. It is perfect. There are no words to thank you for what you've given us. We, and our families, are so appreciative. Truly, the BEST wedding memory we have. We love it so much. We will definitely be using you in the future for other events. THANK YOU! I wish I could talk to all brides and convince them to use you and do this video. It is truly our best memory.

Inevitably we missed things that happened during our wedding/reception and our video captured those memories in the moment and preserves them forever. It is our personal capsule that enables us to re-visit the day that changed our lives forever.

Perfecto! They are so great. I could watch it over and over! I'm starting to feel vain but you made it so beautiful. Thank you so much for working with me till it was perfect. We are very grateful.

Its absolutely perfect, amazing, spectacular... it far exceeded all my expectations... I cried the whole time... you made it look like a fairy tale! I cant thank you enough... Jonah and I will treasure this for the rest of our lives!!!

Gave my inlaws their copy of my DVD...they were amazed! They just could not stop talking about how great it was. Then they had alot of people over so they could show them too. You are truly talented!

Loved, loved, loved it! It looked AMAZING! It made me cry 3 times already!

Thank you so much for everything you did on our special day. I cannot tell you how impressed we were with the videos, time spent and the enjoyment it was working with you. I would have to say it was the best money ever spent!!! Now because of you and your staff I will be able to relive the most wonderful day of my life over and over!!! Thanks again!!!!

Every time I view Loretta's Wedding video I am just amazed at how it tells the full story. Story of their beginning and their special day. When Loretta and I watch, and we do often, it is surely a gift. Thanks again from the bottom of My Heart!
