A fantastic Videographer That we can highly reccomend for your big day

Perfection! Jonno was incredible throughout our wedding day! It truly shows in the work he does. Jonno was attentive and kind throughout those hectic wedding day moments, keeping things in line and capturing everything possible. We are SO truly blessed to have had Jonno participate in our wedding.
Jonno was professional and personable and captured every sweet moment of one of the biggest days of our lives. We could not be happier that we went with Social Video. He has created the most beautiful memory of our wedding day! Thank you

Definite recommendation.

Excellent videography. Used this videogprapher for my 80th birthday party. All went very smoothly. No problems whatsoever. Also, very importantly, excellent editing afterwards. Look out for editing skills. This is where your video comes together. Remember - editing is as important as shooting.

Great video and steaming

John did a great job live streaming my wedding for a family member who couldn't make it, and also making a video of the ceremony. There were lots of technical issues including not having a WiFi connection but he made it all work well. He is also a v nice man and great to deal with. Recommended.

Would highly recommend John - he was great at visualising what we wanted from our wedding video, and had such a high, brilliant level of professionalism. He engaged with our comments on the video draft, and has made the most amazing reminder of our perfect day! Would highly recommend to anyone wanting an amazing video.

John captured the essence of our event perfectly. As a result, his video has become a really useful 'shop window' for us to showcase what it's all about. He's knowledgeable about what's possible and great to work with.

He was fantastic to work with

John created an excellent campaign film for us, which was a key tool in a campaign. He was fantastic to work with - creative, responsive, patient, and ultimately outstanding at creating engaging video content. He took on every aspect of the project, including the soundtrack and voiceover, and we were absolutely delighted with the result. I would absolutely recommend John if you are looking for a video producer with a real grasp of social media.

We could not have had the Dance Day video done without John

We could not have had the Dance Day video done without John. He found us the location, organised what needed doing, helped get us all together, shot the footage, edited and then produced it. We tried his patience (hard) but he was unfailingly charming, helpful, and good humoured. And the result we got was fantastic.

The great video he shot for us will certainly help us

John helped us achieve a seven-fold growth of our event revenue this year through social media and networking. He is very easy to work with, really knows what he is doing and delivers great results. The great video he shot for us will certainly help us achieve the further 30% growth we are looking for next year.
