Client Testimonials
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!
I am delighted to recommend Maxwell for photography services. He took a draft concept in my head and quickly transformed the idea into a professional timelapse science video. Due to Maxwell’s expertise, the project was accomplished in less time than anticipated; the turnaround time from the last image captured to the finished project took less than a day. His attention to detail and his photographic talent resulted in a quality video that I am excited to use for educational purposes. I look forward to working with Maxwell in the future. Thank you, Maxwell!
Maxwell is so easy to work with. Not only is he extremely talented and hardworking, but also such a genuinely kind person. He is amazing with children and goes above and beyond the job he’s doing. We are so pleased with his services and can’t wait to work with him again in the future.
Maxwell and I met at a community event, and he shared his love for making movies. I invited him to make a video for the Grand Opening of our building as a community member. When he said yes, I didn't think to myself that it would be the highlight of the evening. He did a phenomenal job putting on display what the program is centered on - creativity and innovation in community.
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!
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.
