Client Testimonials
Maxwell did an incredible job with the action shots of our Spring 2022 dance showcase for our group Exodus at Virginia Tech. High quality images with beautiful composition and captured a very good amount of incredible moments in our show.
Maxwell did videography for my wedding and he did an amazing job! He went above and beyond with capturing footage, and edited it all together beautifully. We are so grateful to have the video as a keepsake, it has already brought many smiles
Maxwell is awesome with my 5&6 year old! He keeps them busy and engaged with fun games (he has many that he just pulls out of the trunk of his car - fun Frisbee, board games, etc). He is very understanding and patient with my super emotional children. He seems to be able to preemptively get in front of meltdowns that I can't seem to do as a parent. Overall they have a ton of fun when he's around and they are happy at the end of the day! We would definitely hire Maxwell again.
Maxwell is wonderful to work with. He was so good with the kids in our studio! His artistic ability truly shows in his work!
We loved all our videos from here for our dance recital with Kim & Company dance! You've done an amazing job! Can’t wait to work with you again this season!
Maxwell is awesome! I wanted something special for my little girl and he made it happen! Having the opportunity to work with Maxwell has been amazing! His talent is amazing and his work represents that! 10/10 recommend! I can definitely see us working more with him in the future!

I recorded my college music supplements with Maxwell, and could not have chosen better. He was very patient, and the quality of the final video was amazing. I highly recommend Maxwell for any recording or filming jobs!
Excellent person with great equipment! He can help you finish that song or film you’ve been meaning to produce forever. He is a professional with high-end technology and quality acoustics. Would recommend!
Maxwell was wonderful with my 4 year old. We can’t wait to have him come back!
Maxwell is one of our favorites! He planned an outing/special activity for them almost every day and kept them both engaged and off screens. He sent photos so we could see what they were up to. We came home to a house that was picked up and happy kids. We would highly recommend him!
My kids loved their time spent with Maxwell! My partner and I felt extremely comfortable and confident in Maxwell's care. He has excellent communication skills and really went above and beyond to ensure my kids had a great day. 10/10 would recommend again.
