DO YOUR SELF A FAVOR AND BOOK MIKE CANTARELL

 

Pros: EVERYTHING

Cons: None

Wow! My husband and I were blown away when we received our highlight videos from Mike in such a timely manner, but we just finished watching the Main video now and we are more than satisfied. He did an awesome job. Everyone who we shared the highlight video with was amazed. We used his service for the “Welcome Party” that we hosted the day before the wedding and absolutely loved how he fused that day into our wedding day.

Thank you so much for doing such an awesome job Mike. When we met with you last year during our site visit, we knew the other 4 videographers we met prior to you wouldn’t meet our expectations. Thanks for not failing us. Even though Palace Resort is a bit stressful with their outside vendors, our memories of the day in addition to the videography took us back to our wonderful wedding. May God continue to bless the work of your hand.

Future Brides- Please do yourself a favor and book him- You WONT regret it! When the wedding is over, you need to have quality video and photos of the day because everything will fly by so fast.

Mike- Your professionalism is like none other. The end result is definitely worth every penny we spent! Thank You again!

MIKE CANTRELL & CLAUDIA!!! BEST VIDEOGRAPHER AND PHOTOGRAPHERS EVER

Pros: Everything!!!!

Cons: Honestly, just paying the extra resort fees to have them but it was WORTH EVERY PENNY! Don’t regret it AT ALL!

I have to say when I was planning a destination wedding in Mexico, finding the perfect videographer and photographer was the hardest thing. The resort I stayed at only allowed their local photographer and if I wanted someone else, I would have to pay an additional fee which was ridiculous. My husband is a photographer himself in Canada and knows what to look for and what constitutes as a quality picture of video. In the end, we decided to go with Mike Cantrell for video and Claudia Rodriquez for Photography. It was costly for us because not only did we pay the photographers but also the resort to bring them in. With this being said, I have never been more happier with our decision. They had a team of at least 5-7 people around us at all times and they were super friendly and adjusting in every situation. I truly felt like the paparazzi were around but I can’t even explain how gorgeous they work turned out for us in the end. They never missed a moment in my wedding and the quality was AMAZING! If you’re planning your wedding in Mexico, regardless of the additional charges you may have to pay… I want you to think, do you want the perfect pictures and best wedding videos of your life or are you okay with the basic stuff? Remember, you’re spending money to have your perfect wedding and you need the best pictures and videos to showcase and keep those memories forever. Mike Cantrell and Claudia Rodriquez can provide you with that and much more. I promise you!!!! They are definitely worth EVERY penny I spent without a doubt. I know that when we have our 25 year anniversary we’ll come back to the same resort and have them shoot our event again. We loved them!

AMAZING TEAM TO WORK WITH!

 

Pros: Responsiveness, Quality, Quickness

Cons: None

Planning a destination wedding can be stressful. Many times you have to pick out flowers, decor, venue, photographer/videographer, going off of pictures or recommendations. Mike Cantarell was referred to me by one of my close friends. I was having a difficult time finding someone who not only was in our price range but provided amazing shots/footage! I am so happy I chose MIke Cantarell and his Wife, Claudia, to capture our special day! Both Mike and Claudia quickly responded to emails, which made communication miles away effortless! It’s unfortunate resorts limit you to options for photography for your wedding as they like to slap on a hefty “outside vendor resort fee”, but Mike and Claudia’s portfolio was incomparable to the resorts photographer option. I can honestly say… IT WAS WORTH EVERY PENNY!! I thought to myself, these are my life-long memories, I should’t feel I should sacrifice the quality of pictures/video I was seeking, just because of a resort fee.

The Day of the Wedding Mike and his team made everything run smoothly. Both Mike and Claudia arrived on time and ready to go! Nothing was scripted, nothing was forced. My Husband and I were just in the moment. Mike and his team would work around what we were doing, which I loved because it didn’t take away from any moment!!! Not only did we receive our pictures and video 3 MONTHS after our wedding, but they were amazing. I shed tears watching our wedding video, reminiscing the best day of our lives. If you are having your wedding in the Riviera Maya area, YOU MUST check his work out. You will not be disappointed! THANK YOU MIKE, CLAUDIA AND BOTH OF YOUR TEAMS FOR YOUR AMAZING WORK!!! I COULDN’T HAVE ASKED FOR MORE!!!

Money well spent and would 100% do it again.

 

Pros: Everything

Cons: None

My Husband and I could not more than happier with Mike’s work and professionalism. He was amazing to work with. Not once did we have any issues. Planning a wedding in a different country for us as we live in the U.S can be very difficult. We were looking for a certain type of video and as soon as I found Mike’s website. I immediately fell in love with the style of his work. I felt as looking at other videographer vendors his work was by far the best. Mike also made this experience very easy. He listened to everything that we wanted and did just that. He Captured every important moment and it was absolutely breath taking. I watched our wedding video and it brought tears to our eyes and also our family and friends. We felt as though we were in that moment again. We are so happy that we chose Mike and would absolutely recommend him to anyone that is looking for an amazing professional videographer. Although we had to pay a vendor fee for Mike to come onto the resort. Money well spent and would 100% do it again.

Best way to relive your wedding day!

 

Pros: None

Cons: None

We had our wedding in January at Azul Fives and Mike was fantastic to work with! Initially videography was not in our budget but in the end it became a really high priority as my mom and my husband’s parents couldn’t make it to our wedding due to health reasons. We were able to squeeze it into our budget but found ourselves with only a month to find the perfect videography team to capture our wedding. Mike was recommended to us by our photographers Photos in Cancun and luckily Mike was available for our wedding. He was able to work with us on our tight budget and were amazing on the day. We just received our highlight video and love it!

 

Your day goes by so quickly that a wedding video is the best way to relive this amazing day!
