Anish AbuwalaReview ofMint Wedding Cinematography
We booked Mint for our wedding over a long weekend...
We booked Mint for our wedding over a long weekend in July (spanning three events in total). Three things drove the decision:
1) The samples on their website were our personal favorites of the numerous cinematography companies we considered. 2) They were super amendable in tailoring their package(s) to our specific needs for the weekend. 3) Photo booths are overdone. We thought their slo-mo booth was absolutely one-of-a-kind. 4) Bonus bullet. Looking back on the whole planning process, Mint ranked as our lowest maintenance vendor. Consummate professionals. I'd add this as an underrated reason to pick them.
As for the live experience of working with trio of Chris, Zach and Calvin... they were awesome. Frankly, if you didn't look out for them, you would've never known they were there (well, except Zach. he's a giant). You could describe the style as part journalistic / part cinematic. They shot the event as it unfolded and most of the film was edited in chronological order, but cinematic flourishes featured throughout the final offering: a flashy array of long shots and close ups, stable and shaky cam footage seamlessly edited together to match the background music beat for beat. It really felt like an epic movie. We still get compliments from friends on the same day edit.
So yeah, I say hire Mint. You won't regret it.
