Jimmy with Captured in Frames was one of the best parts of our wedding. We were so happy with the same day edit! It was special to share our day with our friends and family at our wedding reception. Jimmy was a blast to work with and we can't wait to have another event so he can join us!

Everyone from the MOB to the maid of honor loved this vendor. They are professional yet young and fresh. I felt as though they really connected with the bridal party and the family. The day of my daughter's wedding was crazy at my house, yet having the Captured in Frames crew at my house, was just like having more family or good friends. They really give that personal touch and it shows in their videos. My daughter and her new husband went inside of the baseball stadium for pictures and the SDE looked like a commercial for the Cardinals. Perhaps the Cardinals organization should consider hiring Jimmy!

Jimmy did an amazing job with our wedding video! It is everything we had hoped, and more - we absolutely love it! We have gotten so many compliments on it and have referred many people to Jimmy. It is not your average wedding video - it tells a story of us and of our day, is extremely high quality, and very professionally done. I'm so glad I"ll always have this to treasure.

Jimmy was very thorough, and spent our entire wedding time with us, starting with the rehearsal dinner and ending late at the dance at the reception. If I had it to do over, the only thing I would do differently is facilitate more communication between Jimmy and the photographer so they would know each others' visions and be able to work together to capture the moments.

We absolutely loved our video from Captured in Frames. It truly captured our day in a short time to be able to show many friends and family. We have gotten so many compliments on the video...everyone wants one! We enjoyed working with Jimmy and Carol, and they did a great job communicating with us when needed throughout the process. We would definitely recommend Captured in Frames for your wedding videography!

jimmy from captured in frames is amazing! even though this is his second job, he could clearly make it a full time career. the short music video was so touching and totally told our story and captured the special and tender moments of our day. the song he picked was perfect too. many friends and family said it was clearly the best wedding video they've ever seen. and that the song really did feel like our soundtrack. jimmy was also so easy to work with, and we never really felt like he was there videoing us even. highly recommended!

Captured in Frames really did capture every special detail from my wedding day that will provide my husband and I with a lifetime of memories! They were so professional, and far exceeded my expectations! Not only were they extremely creative in getting unique video footage of my groom, and our wedding party, but we really had so much fun being stars in our video! I would recommend Captured in Frames to any bride or groom who is looking for someone to do videography for for their wedding!

Jimmy and Carol were an absolute pleasure to work with!

Even with a venue that was uncooperative in the planning process, Jimmy went above and beyond to make sure that everything went smoothly with our photo montage without requiring the bride and groom to get involved.

We could not have asked for a better pair to work with! Jimmy and Carol have an excellent eye for wedding videography and were amazing to work with. We stand behind their work 100% and would refer them to every bride and groom.

Thank you, Jimmy & Carol, for working so hard, capturing our special moments on film, and making our wedding so memorable! You made us feel like family not a customer! Thank you :-)

Vendor recommendation from KayDi's Event Planning & Services

Jimmy & his team rocked our 2011 New Year's Eve wedding!! His sneak peek was better than a movie trailer. Great team and awesome service! I can't wait to work with Captured in Frames again!

Vendor recommendation from Ryan Gladstone Photography

Carol and Jimmy were a pleasure to work with. They made sure we both got what we needed and were helpful throughout the day.
