Once i was engaged and started the wedding planning process, a videographer was one of the most, if not thee most important things i wanted to have, so it had to be right. I searched and searched and nothing was clicking for me until i came across one of Michelles videos on facebook! BOOM! She quickly had a message sitting in her inbox. I was so happy when she replied and was free on our date.
Covid was still floating about at this stage so we had a Skype/zoom meeting just to get a feel for each other and build a rapport. It was so relaxed and informal. I felt like i was just having a wee catch up with a friend, she is just the loveliest person. Michelle explained how she works, gave advice about different suppliers and just made me feel so comfortable.
As the day got closer. The paperwork for info Michelle sent was easy to fill in. We had another zoom meeting, which my other half was part of. Michelle gave us a wee rough run down of what would happen on the day and just went over the paperwork with us to make sure everything was covered and answered questions we had.
On the day, Michelle was so easy to work with, we always felt so comfortable and nothing was forced. She was so professional and discreet. Michelle was so friendly and helpful, all our wedding party had mentioned just how lovely she was. She has a similar sense of humour to us, she was so funny and joined in with banter, again, i just felt like she was a friend, because we gelled so well it also made camera shy husband feel comfortable too!
When i saw Michelles email to say our video was ready i got butterflies! The video left me speechless, from the teaser video i knew it was going to be special but oh my god it beyond exceeded my expectations! I was overwhelmed with just how beautiful it was! Michelle clearly has a talent for story telling in her craft, it was just magical how she managed to capture our personalities and the love and silliness of our day.
The passion she has for her work shines! The creativity that went into the editing is top quality.
I get goosebumps every time i watch it (daily!) And never realised how much i missed/forgot about but Michelle was able to capture everything.
Every wedding needs a Michelle, i cannot reccommend her highly enough! Our video was nothing short of amazing and we will treasure for the rest of our lives! Can't thank Michelle enough

We knew straight away after coming across one of Michelle’s previous Wedding Films that she was the perfect lady to video our big day. Not only is she an outstanding videographer , she is the kindest, funniest, most beautiful soul to be around. Michelle didn’t only make both my husband and I feel comfortable, but all of our friends and family, too. So many of our guests commented on how lovely and fun Michelle was to have around - she truly felt like one of our close friends on the day, not just our videographer!
We received our Wedding Film’s yesterday and haven’t stopped watching them since! The full day from start to finish was captured perfectly, with so many moments that we didn’t notice at the time brought to light and relived- we enjoy the film’s more every time we watch them! This lady loves what she does and it shows in her impeccable work .
Dom and I can’t thank you enough Michelle, for everything you have done for us and just being the lovely, genuine person that you are. We are so grateful to have met you and to have had the opportunity to spend the time with you that we did.

This is going to be a very hard review to write, purely down to the fact that we are actually lost for words at how amazing our wedding videos are!! Michelle captured our day perfectly, from all our happy guests and our intimate moments throughout. Michelle asked us to provide her with some music that means something to us as a couple and she incorporated into the film amazingly (music is our life) - I want to share the video with everyone because its just so good - I have watched it on repeat and each time my jaw hurts form smiling so much! But the video isn't even the best bit about Michelle - shes an amazing human, she was so much fun to be around and totally joined in on our childish banter - we laughed so much with her, so many of our guests have mentioned how friendly and happy she was on the day - she just slotted in perfectly!
Words don't describe how special she made me in particular feel on my wedding day either, shes like a friend, shes honestly awesome!!
If your looking to book a Videographer I promise you that Michelle is your girl.

Asking Michelle to capture our day in a wedding film was the best decision we made. We are so blow away by our wedding film and clips by Michelle. They beautifully reflect our day, the laughs, the intimate moments and the love.
Michelle herself was so lovely, funny and made us both feel completely at ease. She was non intrusive throughout the whole day and captured so many beautiful moments. I will never tire of watching them and our friends and family say the same and shared that the films and clips are so moving and special.
Thanks again Michelle, you are so talented at what you do and so happy you were part of our day. To anyone thinking about hiring Michelle please do, we couldn’t recommend her more.

Michelle is one in a million - her films are truly breathtaking and she takes storytelling to a whole new level. We gave Michelle feedback when we got our teaser and our special email when it landed as it just took our breath away - I actually felt like Michelle was one of my girls on insta we spoke so often She’s a kind hearted soul with a true passion and flare for what she does.
I booked Michelle after seeing some of her teasers and speaking to a friend who knows that industry well. From our first interaction Michelle was friendly and so very open in her approach - it was a very easy decision booking Michelle for our big day. COVID struck us like many other couples and despite Michelle’s little arrival in between our rescheduled dates we very much kept in touch. She made a nervous groom feel comfortable in front of the camera (even if she didn’t get that lapel mic on him all day). The video has such a lovely flow, it takes you through the journey and emotions of the day brilliantly, exactly what we wanted. She blended in so well with our guests, making everyone feel at ease and created a dream team partnership with our photographer (who she’d never worked with before - but you’d never have known) everyone commented on how lovely and friendly Michelle was
I could not recommend Michelle highly enough, if you’re getting married and want a videographer - this lady should be your first choice.
Thank you again for everything, our video is something we’ll treasure forever

I cannot recommend Michelle enough to anyone requiring a videographer! Not only is she very professional, but also a lovely lovely person to work with. After postponing our wedding due to Covid in June 2020, we eventually decided to go for it and have our big day in March this year and I am so pleased we did! Michelle went above and beyond to make our day as perfect as ever. She captured every special moment for us flawlessly and her editing skills are undeniable. I have watched our videos over and over and I can’t believe how perfect this memory of our wedding is! It’s just like we are reliving it again but can take it all in properly as well! Michelle was extremely helpful and was able to offer advice which helped make sure I didn’t miss anything leading up to the big day! She is also super friendly and easy to get on with which made me feel like I gained a new friend!
Thank you again Michelle for everything!

Where to start when it comes the the angel that is Michelle. We had a micro wedding during the pandemic and despite updates and changes with the date Michelle kept in contact and up to date with everything. We had our pre-wedding meeting and my husband and I were made to feel so at ease about the filming aspect of our wedding. On the day we never felt like Michelle was sticking a camera in our faces or pulling us away from the day - instead she worked around everything that was happening and really did blend in with our guests (there were only 18 so no easy feat). Now to the video - I have watched the highlight film at least 60 times (no exaggeration) and our feature film (all 1hr15m) 3 times! Michelle captured the raw emotion of our wedding day perfectly - when we watched the videos I was transported right back. We have had nothing but compliments from everyone from family, friends to random people we went to high school with who had come across the video via social media. If you are looking for a wedding videographer but despise the idea of ‘cheesy’ then 100% Michelle is your person! Cinematic, beautiful and emotion evoking!

We had to reschedule our wedding multiple times due to the pandemic but decided to bring it forward and go for it! It was absolutely perfect in every single way.
Michelle not only is an absolute professional and so so talented but she’s also a really kind & happy person to work with. As soon as I got in engaged, I knew I wanted Michelle to film my wedding.
Her fly on the wall style is exactly what I wanted. She captured the raw emotions of the day and filmed our full day so so beautifully.
I’ll never be able to thank Michelle enough for the film she has produced for us, I knew she would create something incredible but what she has given me is not just a film but it’s an indescribable feeling of being to watch back and really feel those emotions again that we felt on the day of pure joy and happiness, really feeling that we are right back in that moment.
For anyone thinking of booking Michelle, there is no other woman on this world that will capture your day as special as she will.
Thank you so much Michelle xxx

Michelle has been the best videographer! The films she has produced for us are amazing and captured our day perfectly. Filming discretely meant she was able to capture natural shots and it was great to look back on moments we didn't know she had captured. The more staged filming was edited to encapsulate the most special moments and all of our guests have watched our feature film over and over again (most with tissues!). Friends and family said they couldn't stop watching and neither could we! Michelle is a skilled videographer who has a true passion for her work. Thank you for videoing our favourite day. We are so grateful to have such a special keep sake. You truly are the best! Thank you again, Jemma and Emily (and Lubob) x

We just had our wedding day a couple of weeks ago after having to reschedule numerous times due to the current pandemic. We were originally having a smaller wedding but due to restrictions it became even smaller. Small, intimate but perfect. Anyone looking for someone to capture their special day, Michelle is your girl! Not only is she an absolute delight to have alongside you on your wedding day, making everyone feels completely at ease and comfortable she is super, super talented in what she does.
If you want to to see love and pure, raw emotion that make up your love story then I can’t recommend her enough.
I’ve literally watched our highlights video probably over 100 times and each time I get a massive lump in my throat and my eyes fill with all the happy tears and our feature film is nothing but perfect. I feel like I can visit and relive our day whenever I want now with what she has done for us memories to last a life time, I can’t thank her enough
Jacqueline + Allen
We couldn’t have been happier with our our wedding films. My husband was nervous about being filmed but on the day he forgot the cameras were even there as Michelle provided such a friendly professional service. She captured so much without being intrusive to the general flow of the day. She was an absolute pleasure to have there on the day and it really made a difference choosing someone so friendly as it naturally relaxed us and really showed in the footage where everyone comes across natural and happy. Everyone has been blown away with the highlight video already and it’s impossible to watch without crying. The comments left on my facebook post of the highlight video are all from people who didn’t attend the wedding and their comments speak for themselves! We love the full video so much and can’t wait to watch it again with extended family. My husband now admits if we didn’t have a wedding film to remember the day it would have been his biggest regret! We are so glad we chose Michelle and recommend her for her 1st class service which she has delivered in record time!
Gigha + Andrew
My husband and I were unsure about having a wedding video, but after seeing a snapshot of Michelle’s work on Facebook I got in touch very last minute and she was amazing at talking us through everything and letting us make our own decision about it. I am so glad that we went ahead as I couldn’t imagine not having the incredible video’s of our day. She captured all the big and little moments without us really noticing. She is so lovely and great to have around when the butterflies kick in as she put me as ease so many times getting ready! We really can’t recommend Michelle enough!
Liane + Scott
I booked Michelle after seeing how personal and professional she was at my sisters wedding and she more than exceeded my expectations. She went above and beyond on our special day and captured some beautiful memories without us knowing she was there. I have not stopped watching our video back, along with the highlights and guest highlights that she put together. I cant recommend Michelle enough nothing was too much trouble for her.
Stephanie + Kevin
I honestly can’t recommend Michelle enough, the video of my wedding is just beautiful, when I watch it I am taken straight back to how I felt on the day. I have had so many beautiful comments from people who have only seen the highlights video saying it’s the best video they have seen yet. Her skills adding music/voices was just over and above my expectations so me and my husband can’t thank her enough for capturing our day in most discreet perfect way. I will be recommending Michelle to all future couples getting married. Thank you again Michelle it was a pleasure having you with us on our special day.
Lyndsay + Lee
We just received our wedding films and we absolutely love it. Michelle is so amazing, discreet and friendly. Captured our day perfectly, even the small moments when we didn’t realise she was filming which have turned out to be some of our favourite parts. Thank you, Michelle, for giving us our memories for life that we can watch again and again.
Katy + Neil
Michelle is amazing! I can’t recommend her work enough! From the moment we met her we knew we had picked the right person to capture our day. Michelle was amazing on the day and went out her way to make sure she captured every moment. She was so discreet and professional! It was so special to come home from our honeymoon to our wedding video being ready. We can’t thank Michelle enough for giving us such beautiful memories from our special day.
Chloe + Blair
Michelle, was such a pleasure to work with from our initial conversation about our wedding to on the day she understood exactly what we were looking for. She created the most amazing videos for us capturing all the joy and excitement for us. We cannot thank Michelle enough
Ashley + Kayley
Having Michelle as our videographer made our day even more special! From the minute we made contact with her, she was always so friendly and there to offer any help or advice. On the day, she worked so well with our photographer etc and made us both feel at ease. We absolutely love our wedding films and Michelle has such a talent that is hard to find. Would 100% recommend Michelle, she made our day just perfect!
Vicki + Rab
From the moment we arranged for Michelle to be our videographer at our wedding she was so helpful, accommodating and not to mention passionate. She has so much enthusiasm for what she does and this shows in her work. Everything she did for us was above and beyond. She wanted our day to run perfectly so she got loads of info from us before the wedding. Not to mention she came along to our church the night before the wedding to familiarise herself with the place. Can’t thank you enough Michelle. Rab and I are over the moon with the highlights film and the feature film! We had such an amazing day and it’s just lovely that we can watch it all back again and again.
Jennifer + Colm
The entire process from initial contact to the finished product was flawless. Michelle is so organised and professional (scoped out our venue in preparation ahead of the big day) and a pleasure to work with. She helped us to be comfortable and at ease in front of the camera. We are delighted with our wedding film and can’t wait to share it with our family and friends. Michelle captured perfect moments and beautiful details that we can relive for years to come. Highly recommend Michelle Gillan Films for that special touch! Thank you so much Michelle, you superstar!
