L. John Morelli is a true professional. He not only beautifully and seamlessly provided us with a stunning video of our event, he also captured the joy and feeling of it all! He is great to work with, he has the experience and also the flexibility to understand what we wanted, and he goes the extra mile whenever we have questions or need his advice. Highly recommend him - Five stars all round!

John was a great communicator from the start. Very responsive to phone calls or emails. We ended up adding on video at the last minute before the wedding. He worked with me over many conversations to work out all the details, logistics and pricing to come up with a package that worked for our needs and our budget. Then on the day of the wedding the schedule ran behind. Despite us only hiring him for a set number of hours, he went above and beyond to work with us to make sure he was still able to capture everything we wanted. And the best part of it all was the final product. Before finalizing he sent us copies for editing and allowing us to make any changes we wanted. He worked with us back and forth many times and never once complained. Our final video and highlight reel arrived in a beautiful box with our picture on it and with a beautiful wooden magnetic thumb drive inside. The highlight reel was so beautiful and made me cry every time i watch it. LOVE LOVE LOVE

John was a pleasure to work with. Pre-covid, we had met him in person to view previous weddings he had filmed at the church we were getting married at. Our original date of 3/21 was postponed to 8/1 and then only a few weeks before, we had pushed it back to 8/8. Luckily, John was available and willing to film our ceremony at our church during the pandemic. You can tell he values each couples preferences and has lots of detail, considering he has lots of mics placed and cameras placed strategically. He worked well with our photographers, as they do both have to work side by side for the few hours they are with us. He sent us a draft and anything we feel should be changed, he can edit it before sending us the final product.We are very happy to have our wedding ceremony on video done by John for the years to come!

He was fantastic to work with. So friendly, not pushy, and my whole bridal party loved him. I had a few shots that my husband and I needed and he went out of his way to make them happen. I will definitely be hiring him for my second marriage!

There are not many providers of any service that we can recommend unequivocally and know with 100% confidence that our recommendation will be well-received and satisfied. John is one of those people. During the entire process from planning to the event itself to the video production, each step of the way, he has been very easy to deal with, approachable, and done with complete professionalism. The final result in each case was remarkable, and each time we share it with friends or family we get compliments and queries about who did our video. We have used him for multiple events and will continue to do so moving forward.

If you need a videographer for your wedding, look no further. John is someone with whom it is very easy to work. He is flexible and accommodating. For me the video was most important and John did an excellent job of capturing all of the precious moments in our special day.

John was such a pleasure to work with. He was easy-going, patient, understanding and beyond talented. Our ceremony didnt begin until after dark and his attention to lighting was exquisite. He did such an incredible job lighting the backdrop and the entire ceremony, the video from our ceremony is truly out of a movie. And of course, he did an unbelievable job capturing every other moment of our special day. Id 100% recommend him to all!

John was a delight to work with from the moment we met him on the day of our wedding.On our wedding day, it is normal to be nervous; however, when he began filming us, our anxiety somewhat went away. When watching the trailer, we were surprised how relaxed we looked.john made an incredible trailer for us in a short time that we could not wait to show our family and friends. We kept watching it as it gave a remarkable recap of the wedding day in just 10 minutes. Capturing a 6 hour event in only 10 minutes is not an easy task.We even requested that John change one part of the trailer and he did so without hesitation and made it exactly what we requested.We cannot recommend John enough as he will for sure do an incredible job.-David and Naava

John took the photographs for my sons bar mitzvah. John was incredibly professional, patient and flexible and the photos are amazing! We were completed delighted to work with him and will certainly hire him for the next celebration. John has a great way of making his subjects feel at ease and he felt like part of the family. Wonderful experience and great memories for all!

John was incredibly professional and made everything easy for us on our wedding day. He made beautiful videos of our ceremony and reception and got them to us in a very timely manner. John did a great job of capturing all of the important moments for us and we will cherish the videos he made forever.

I recently used Morelli Media for my wedding after a coworker recommended him. The professional quality and length of the films I saw are really what drew me in. I looked into video companies that only produce a 45 minute film and I knew I wanted something longer (ours ended up being 1 hour and 40 minutes).From the beginning, John was very easy to work with. We did most of our correspondence through email, and all of my emails were answered promptly. On the day of the wedding, I barely noticed John and his team (even though there were 3 video cameras at my ceremony!) Within a week, we began receiving links to edited sections of our video online, and we received our full video within two months of our wedding, and just as expected, it was amazing. We’ve shown it to family and friends, and we have received so many compliments. Several of our friends have said that if they could do it all over again, they would use Morelli.John Morelli is truly and artist and you will see that with your video. He is not just a guy who knows how to use a video camera who works for a company; he is a professional filmmaker and he will capture the beauty, fun, excitement, and emotion in your wedding so you and your family can enjoy it for years to come. Without a doubt, I recommend John Morelli and Morelli Media.

John is everything we could ask for in a wedding videographer - professional. affordable, and his work is outstanding!The footage he shot was fantastic - weve shown all of our friends and family and we all agree: he captured all the right moments, edited it well, and synced it with terrific audio.Behind the scenes, he was so easy to work with, which is such a relief when planning a wedding. He was very prompt with email correspondences. He was open and honest about what he could do and how he would do it. He showed up hours early to set up. And while at the event, he caught everything without being too invasive.John provided us with sample recap videos and the real video so quickly after our wedding. It was such a treat to watch all of the best moments so soon after our honeymoon. Weve already watched our video 5 times since receiving it last month - we never would have thought wed like our wedding video that much!We loved John; wed recommend him to any bridge/groom.

Where to begin...we wanted a videographer but we weren’t sure if our budget would allow for one. We came across John on WeddingWire. His pricing made it easy for us to end up including a videographer and even a second shooter. We reached out to John and right off the bat we were blown away by his work, personality, professionalism and flexibility. From start to finish he was thoughtful (reassuring that this is Our day and he will record everything We wanted.) He was also very accommodating with our photographer, family and dealt with a few changes before and after the ceremony. He was punctual on the day of the wedding and called a week before to get to know us better. Because of his 30 years of experience, his organization and professionalism, he was able to capture every aspect of our day and included clips of everyone having a blast and cheering for us!

If you need a wedding videographer, do yourself a favor and hire John. He is a true artist and professional. His work is amazing and truly captures the beauty of you day. Video is not cheesy at all. The music he chooses is very appropriate and the video editing is superb. He and his assistant were friendly, unobtrusive and really nice. I would hire him again for any future events that required a videographer and cant give him enough accolades.His pricing is very transparent and fair and he is very easy to work with.

We had a great experience working with John on our wedding video. Our video came out great,and was exactly what we wanted. We were really excited about teaser trailer to share with our friends, and it came out perfectly - a great recap to share with friends and family. John was very helpful and professional throughout the entire process, from our first meeting, to the post edits, and of course the day itself (he even pinned the flower on my suit). Overall, it was a great experience working with John and we have the amazing video to show for it.

John Morelli is WONDERFUL! We were thrilled to work with him after seeing the gorgeous video he made for friends of ours, and the results still have us smiling. He managed to capture both the fun and warmth of our wedding so beautifully, with shots spanning family and friends we will cherish. The “Getting Ready” and “Highlights” segments are perfect—they’re artistic and authentic, with music and energy to match. He was such a pleasure to work with—at the wedding and afterwards—easy, reliable, responsive, knowledgeable, and passionate about his work and his craft. It was a joy to work with him, and now it’s a joy to relive the wedding through the video (however many countless times we’ve already watched it)! Thank you, John, for making this so special for us!

John did a fabulous job at our wedding. I have never seen a video as special as ours. I would highly recommend him to anyone searching for a great videographer. His talent is outstanding. Our video is more like a movie with credits and a cast. It is truly amazing. I highly recommend this company, you will not be sorry.

Morelli Media was absolutely amazing and captured all the beautiful memories on our wedding day! I would recommend him to anyone looking for a videographer on their big day. He listened to every last detail and the music that was paired with the video was perfect! I also recommend the video recap. It is a great way for people get a quick glimpse of what your wedding day was like.

I recently used Morelli Media for my wedding. From beginning to end, John was extremely professional and helpful. It was nice to have contact with him leading up to the big day and it reassured me that he was one vendor I would have no issues with.On the morning of my wedding while at the salon with my bridesmaids I received a phone call from John. He mentioned that he was ready to start a bit early and thought it would be great to meet me at the salon as it would make a great start to my getting ready sequence. I thought it was so nice that he went out of his way to meet us there and boy was he right. The getting ready sequence came out amazing!We had a big greek wedding and he made sure to capture all of the details we worked so hard on. It was truly a pleasure working with him and his team.About a week or two after the honeymoon we came back to a video sequence from John for our review. It was so great being able to see a product so soon after the wedding.I highly recommend this vendor and my family and I look forward to using him at future events!!

We had John for our wedding through Glenmar. He was amazing!! Our video highlight as well as our full video came out amazing and within a great time frame.

We were referred to John Morelli from two of my cousins that had used him for their wedding. After seeing both of their videos we knew we had to use him. John is extremely detailed oriented (which is what any bride would want for her big day), patient, very professional and never disappoints. After watching our own wedding video I can honestly say that I am so happy that we used John as our videographer and will highly recommend him.

It was a pleasure working with John, he did videography for our wedding, and we are happy with the final product. John listened to exactly what we wanted and did his best to accommodate us. I like that John is the only person we had to work with from start to finish, he did everything himself, there were no sales people, no outsource/part-time editors or 3rd party videographers. Overall everything went smoothly, he was very professional and he takes his work very seriously.

We created a video and found it needed some serious editing. Since we were not familiar with editing videos,we looked for a video editor. We found John Morelli. I explained to him what our needs were and was presently surprised as to the speed and professionalism how he edited our video. John did exactly what we asked for. A worthwhile video editor if you ever need one!

I am usually very shy and hate attention, which of course isnt great for a bride on her wedding day. John made me feel very comfortable and the end result of my wedding video came out great! I would highly recommend John to anyone who is looking for a great videographer.

Review №26

John is an artist in the true sense of the word – videography is not a job for John, it’s his passion. We give John our highest recommendation. John made excellent and creative use of today’s technologies to capture our wedding event, which included sound dubbing from several sources, giving the video a more realistic sound. John provided excellent service, quality and value. He took his work very seriously and played an active role, but not to a point that it interfered with the day. John’s calm and low key demeanor worked well with all the guests and vendors. He enhanced the capturing of the entire event with his keen artistic style. We recommend that you take the time to meet with John before you make a final selection, as you will be impressed.

L.J. Morelli created a fantastic video of our sons Bar Mitzvah. He was unobtrusive, professional, and we received our video in a timely fashion. We have already booked him for our next event in 2018. Would highly recommend Morelli Media.

John was truly amazing to work with! He and his assistant showed up early on our big day and were extremely professional and helpful! We received our draft video within a few weeks after our wedding and he was very flexible about making some changes to the background music (Even got us a song that he didnt have on his song list).I also love the way he presents his work which really showed his professionalism; (the sample work was packaged neatly in a folder with clear instructions and the final video was stored in a white deluxe CD box) I would highly recommend Morelli Media to anyone who is searching for a wedding videographer!

John was excellent as the videographer at my wedding in December 2012. He was able to capture nearly everyone and also captured some really great dancing and special moments between my husband and me. I mean this in the best way possible but one of his best qualities was being invisible throughout the day. He was never in the way and he never asked us to do anything out of our way for the camera and by being invisible- he captured everything. Granted this means he really captured everything and I didnt necessarily want it all in the video (awkward dancing/posing for pics etc) but he was great about editing out parts that I requested prior to making the final disc. Additionally, the presentation of the dvd is in a nice keepsake with one of my favorite pictures from the entire wedding on the front (he took the photo- not the photographer). He was a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend his services.

I initially did not plan to have a videographer for my wedding on 11-24-18. I really wanted one, but did not think I could afford it. Enter John who worked with me on pricing that was so fair and reasonable, we hired him. Can I just say that was the BEST. DECISION. EVER! We have the most beautiful wedding video and highlight short clip I am able to share with friends and family. John truly captured the tone, essence, vibe and energy of our day! Super swift communicator to this nervous and chatty bride, whether during pre-planning or the day of the wedding, he was patient, serene, helpful, calming and reliable. Post wedding, he was always in touch with handling pre edit requests from me, and worked with us to remove or add things just to make me the perfect video I dreamed about. He made the entire experience so easy--He, by far, became my favorite wedding vendor. So pleased we hired him. He even personally delivered my final video/blu ray into my mailbox! (Bonus: Cutest packaging for a lovely keepsake). He easily has my vote and recommendation as the best videographer for any occasion! Definitely reach out to him. Youll see.

We found John through a friend that had used him to shoot their wedding. We had loved the highlights reel he had done for them and reached out right away. We are so happy we did! John had done an amazing job from the start. He was very accommodating when I had wanted to send a 2nd videographer to my fiancés parents house to capture him getting ready for a bit. He did a wonderful job capturing me getting ready, the ceremony and the very best parts of the reception. We were blown away with the highlights reel he had put together. He does an amazing job of going between the ceremony and the reception to make the video so engaging. We got so many compliments on our video! Would recommend LJ Morelli to anyone getting married as John effortlessly captured our wedding and was the easiest to work with!

From the moment we first met with John, we were confident that he was a true professional. John made us feel exceptionally special on our wedding day and he perfectly captured our entire day for us. Without hesitation we recommend John and his staff to any couple looking for a courteous, professional, and amazingly talented videographer. We are thrilled with our wedding video - it is truly magnificent. It is certainly something I will treasure forever. We were so happy with John, that both of my brothers are using him for their weddings. Two years after our wedding, we treasure our video more than any picture we have. Having John Morelli as our videographer was literally the best decision we made for our wedding. He is, without a doubt, the best videographer we have seen.

Review №36

One of my biggest pet peeves at weddings is when the photographer or videographer gets in the way of everyone enjoying the wedding. For our wedding, my husband and I agreed one of the most important qualities we want in our photographer or videographer is his ability to be virtually invisible, and John Morelli did just that. Even as the bride, I hardly saw him, but the video is superb! He captured wonderful moments, and was very open to any suggested or requests I had when he was editing the video. We both highly recommend him to our friends who recently get engaged and are having trouble looking for a videographer. You wont be disappointed in your wedding video if you high Morelli Media to capture your special day.

John is an incredibly talented, creative and professional videographer who went above and beyond on the day of our wedding and made memories that will last a lifetime. I have recommended him to all of our friends who are getting married and simply cannot say enough about his work. From our wedding mass to the very end of the night, John and his 2nd videographer partner captured every moment of our day with beauty and creativity. We had the edited version of the video in our hands within a month of our wedding. It was so perfect, we only changed one song! When I was first thinking about all the vendors I wanted on my wedding day, I did not want a videographer because of other work I had seen. I came across a wedding recap of Johns, fell in love, and booked him that week. I am SO HAPPY I did! He made memories for us that are absolutely unforgettable and I cannot thank him enough!

If you want to truly capture the amazing moments of you wedding day, Morelli Media is your choice. John Morelli is true a talent, with the skills necessary to keep the focus on the most special memories of your day. With regard to focus, this also applies to the top HD video quality that makes your video so clear, it takes you back to those moments you dreamed of. Everyone always shares stories with future brides and grooms how their wedding day goes so quickly after all your hard work and planning. We felt confident leaving the task of creating our video in the hands of Morelli Media. One of the easiest choices you can make while planning your wedding is using John Morelli. He listens and understands what exactly needs to be done. His work speaks for itself. While researching videographers, something that was important to us was capturing the entire ceremony and having the option to have an overview of the entire day to share with friends and family. His packages include a nice range of special services, length of recording time and the number of videographers. The overview feature, which Morelli Media is known for is called The Recap. John carefully selects the most moving moments from the day and beautifully edits it to the soundtrack of your choice. It has brought tears, joy and laughter to everyone we have shared it with and will always be grateful for what he did for us. Another must is The Cast. Both of these services speak for themselves. If you are serious about having a videographer, contact Morelli Media as fast as you can. You dont want to miss out working Morelli Media. As a testament to the skills of Morelli Media, we have already booked him for a special future family celebration.

I can highly reccommend John and Morelli Media. We hired him for our wedding in Sept 2010. We absolutely LOVE our video and still watch it all the time. There are so many moments that he caught that we hadnt seen or remembered that day. He really didnt miss a beat and at the same time I never felt like he got in the way. He was very discreet and extremely professional. What makes John really stand apart from the other videographers we met with is that he is by far the most creative. With our photos and video we were definitely looking for something more creative than your standard wedding service. John creates amazing recaps, honeymoon clips, a great clip of the cast members (i would highly reccommend this! such a fun clip), credits etc He also allows you to be really be involved in the editing process, choosing the music etc. He obviously spends a lot of time with each wedding. I think the quality of the editing and also the footage in general was top notch. I am so happy we were referred to him, we really couldnt have been happier with our video. We sent links around to some of our friends and family of the cast and recap and everyone was blown away. They had never seen anything like it before. One of my friends decided to hire John for her wedding as well. I would also reccommend paying a little extra for the 2nd camera. It was great to see different angles, for instance walking down the aisle one camera is with the bride but the other was with the groom. Seeing my husbands anticipation waiting for me to come down the aisle is priceless, those are the moments you want to treasure. If youre lucky enough to have come across Morelli Media, hire them!
