Endorsements
This company has a level of quality that is outstanding. I can not put into words how impressed I am with both the professional service and the exquisit video production.
Blue Sky Films is one of my favorite video companies to work with! They all are wonderful! They have a similar style and approach as myself so we work seamlessly through the day! They are all wonderful documentary artists!
We have been working with Blue Sky Films for a few years now and can't say enough great things about the shoot teams over there, we simply love them all! As photographers we need to work with all of the wedding day professionals that each bride has hired in somewhat of a slow dance fashion to ensure that each one of us can provide our clients with the services and end product that they have hired us for. Many people know that this can be challenging when it comes to photo and video, shooting for the same thing can be difficult at times, but with Blue Sky Films we feel that their unobtrusive way of capturing the clients day helps us dance very well and gracefully at a team, so well that people often think we are all together! That is what being a great videographer is all about. When our clients ask for a referral for video services this is where we turn because we know that they are in great hands.
They are true artists and wonderful to work with.
Martin & his team of talented film-makers set the standard for excellence in wedding videography in this area. The work coming out of Blue Sky Films is by far the finest, most elegant wedding documentary work we have ever seen. And actually working a wedding with this team is a dream-come-true for a photojournalist. Blue Sky Films is first-rate in every way. Don't hesitate one second ~ if they are available on your wedding date, book them now!
Martin's team is everywhere they should be capturing every moment. Blue Sky's videographers are true artists in realizing how to shoot what to make the final cut. Martin and his team are phenomenal (We especially like Neil Benjers--sure to put smile on everyone's face.)
We've worked with Neil many times... the first being a very hot wedding at the Baltimore Zoo... and each time we find him to be wonderfully unobtrusive, creative, fun, and very enthusiastic about the entire wedding. We love working with Neil and would choose to have him at each of our weddings if we could! :) Natalie and Jamie borrowed blue photography
Working with Neil of Blue Sky Films was an incredibly pleasant experience. We have similar styles, so we were not bumping into each other or getting in each others' ways, and his finished videos are incredible. Not to mention that he's just a really cool guy and fun to be around... obviously I would highly recommend him!
We can't say enough about this team of videographers. They are unobtrusive and amazing to work with on weddings. We highly recommend them to all our clients! You can't go wrong with their level of professionalism or their amazing final product.
Blue Sky Films is a team with extraordinary talent! Most videographers capture the "content" of the event. Martin, Neil and Tonya have a relentless desire take it further and capture the various personalities of the event. The Blue Sky Films team will leave you with a product that you will cherish -- they are full of brilliant ideas that will shape how the story of your wedding day is told. Their unobtrusive approach brings out the best in capturing natural footage, and the character of the people, sights and sound of the event. You won't ever find yourself "watching" a Blue Sky product, rather you'll find yourself actively experiencing the point where emotion meets imagination. It certainly doesn't hurt that the Blue Sky Films team is friendly, professional, detail oriented, and extremely fun to work with. It truly is a pleasure and honor to work alongside such a passionate and dedicated team!
