“Michael and the team are so kind and genuine you feel like you‘ve known them for years. Their presence was so calm and grounding I completely forgot I was being filmed all day (which I was super nervous about). We are so happy with the way the film turned out and feel so so grateful Michael and his team spent the day with us and helped us capture the day. The film is so meaningful to us now, I can‘t imagine how grateful we will be to have it 20+ years from now.”
In Their Own Words
“The Stagger Films team was simply incredible from start to finish. They captured our day BEAUTIFULLY and authentically. As someone who is camera shy, the video team was very supportive the day of the wedding and made us and our guests feel comfortable. If you have the chance to work with Stagger, we would highly recommend. We now have a lasting memento of such a special day.”
“In Their Own Words”
“Hiring Stagger was one of the best decisions of our wedding! They make you feel so comfortable in front of the camera, like it’s not even there. They partied with us and are genuinely awesome people to be around. Their style captured and conveyed the emotions of the day better than any video I’ve seen before. Would 100% recommend!”
“In Their Own Words”
“Stagger Films did an exceptional job with our wedding video! After seeing the film in my inbox, I (very patiently) waited for my husband to get home from work to watch it together - we were totally speechless! We cannot thank Michael and the Stagger team enough for capturing our day so authentically and beautifully. Watching our film brought back all the joy and love we felt on that day.”
“In Their Own Words”
“As a wedding planner myself planning my twin sister’s wedding, the feat of hiring a company that was both up to my planning standards and my sister’s video standards (a multimedia specialist) was no simple task. From the first call with Michael, I was so impressed. We just received the final products, and the way the Stagger Films team captured my sister’s wedding day could not have been more perfect. Don’t question it, hire them!”
“In Their Own Words”
“We couldn’t be happier that we chose Stagger Films for our wedding videography. They captured the most magical moments from our wedding and then perfectly weaved all of those moments together into the highlight film. We cry EVERY time we watch it, which is a lot of times. Besides the beautiful video content, we so appreciated how thoughtfully Stagger Films worked the event; they made sure to let us enjoy every moment without any paparazzi-esque interruptions. They’re magic – I don’t know how they do it!”
