Mitch was an absolute joy to have around on our special day! He was fun, friendly and professional to work with. Mitch made our bridal party feel comfortable in front of the camera and was able to initiate genuine moments of laughter and joy to capture on camera. Throughout the night, we barely noticed we were being followed by a camera and absolutely cannot wait to see the final product! Would definitely recommend Mitch Hickman Films! Thank you! Georgia & Matt

We're so grateful for having Mitch Hickman as part of our dream team for our wedding day! A wonderfully professional person, though one who is great fun and produces quality work in such a quick time frame! We must have had our highlight video back to us no more than 10 days after our wedding which is exactly what you need to be able to re-live the moments and keep riding the high of such a special and momentous day. We set him a bit of a task, having to film in our renovation site home and make the family property work and he did it so well! We are so grateful for the beautiful memories he has

Mitch and Camelia are the absolute dream team! We knew we were in good hands for our wedding video, but OH MY GOD they really went above and beyond for us! In the lead up Camelia was so responsive, so organised and so understanding to all of our needs! On the day Mitch was more like a guest than a vendor, he is the funniest most down to earth person and we just had the best day with him. We are blown away by our video, we watch it and can't believe it's us! It's pure magic! So many little details and emotions are captured and it makes you wonder how Mitch could be everywhere, he's like a ninja

After working for many years with Mitch Hickman films on weddings, I was thrilled to book them to shoot a online course for me! They truly went above and beyond on the project. Camelia helped me plan the project to perfection and Mitch made me feel so confident on camera. The end result was a super professional, well edited course that Im over the moon with. Highly recommend!

Mitch and Camelia where do I even start !!!! They were so professional, extremely responsive and love what they do which is so evident in their beautiful work. I am truly obsessed with my wedding video, could not stop crying even after the 10th time I had watched it. My husband and I felt like we just had another friend join us on our wedding day (just a super talented friend behind a camera).
