    Mr. Drake was highly professional and affordable. He did a fantastic job of capturing my daughters wedding. I could not have had a better person to do this job the way he did.

    George Drake provided exceptional service and went above and way beyond our expectations. We watch our wedding video almost everyday and we are still amazed at how much of it he managed to capture. I would strongly recommend him to anyone who has an event .

    George is extremely professional, creative and puts out a high quality product. I am really impressed how seamlessly he operated during the wedding without interrupting us. If it wasn't for the photo-shoot between our ceremony and reception, i wouldn't even notice he was there. i think that's really important element that people may not even consider when searching for a videographer. Thanks George!!

    George Drake was my videographer and he did an amazing job. He was timely, prepared, professional, experienced and knowledgeable. He has a good "camera eye" and gets some great angles. We were fortunate enough to add an additional photographer to our package and it turned out to be well worth it. I don't even know how he got some of the shots that he did but the outcome was befitting of the most important day of my life.

    We met with George Drake one time, and that was all that it took!!! He is truly the master of his trade and were we were super excited to work with him!! On our wedding day, he was early and extremely professional. He has the latest equipment and he's very tech savvy giving you the best quality. On our honeymoon, he delivered a 9 minute clip of our wedding day. Because of the quality of the video, I relived that day, tears and all!! Lol!!! If you're looking for a videographer, George Drake will NOT disappoint!!! Tiff

    I found Mr. Drake through a wedding search. Upon reviewing some of his previous work I was very impressed. The way he captures the most important moment of a couple’s wedding day was very unique. I received the same great service. Weeks after my wedding I was so anxious to preview my wedding highlights, and as stated he delivered. What I viewed in the video was beyond my expectation. I would definitely recommend his services.

    I had such a great experience working with George. His work is absolutely amazing. He took my vision and went way beyond my expectations. I'm amazed at his creativity. George managed to capture the most special moments of my life and turn into art. Every time I watch my wedding video I get chills and teary eyed. I can’t thank him enough for his hard work and dedication.

    George Drake was recommended to me by my wedding planner and I saw his work was really good.

    However, communicating with him before and after the wedding was a hassle as he is very unresponsive both by email and phone. Also, he does not deliver according to signed contract. We got married over 6 month ago and we still don't have our videos to show for it. That is simply the height of unprofessionalism.

    Given that we are still waiting for our videos that are long overdue, I will not recommend this vendor to anyone else.

    I hire the services of Mr. Drake for my wedding a 4.16.2014 ( 10 days before the wedding date). I paid him in full by check. Mr. Drake showed up on time and filmed the wedding (6pm-9pm). Following the wedding, I received a link to the Highlight video at the end of May (exceptional highlight video). Moving on, I sent numerous request for updates without a response back from Mr. Drake. The deadline to receive my video was on October 26, 2014. As of today, I have not received a video from Mr. Drake. I would not recommend him to anyone that expects great customer service, professionalism, and timely response from him because he lacks all three. He does an absolutely marvelous job when it comes to production, editing, and final result of the video. I cannot deny how talented he is and how beautiful the end result. However, I am disappointed that is now past the 6th month deadline and no video has been provided/delivered by him. He stated he would send the video via fedex with tracking on 10/28/14 (2 days past due date) but have not received a tracking # nor a video from him.

    Do yourself a favor and DO NOT BOOK with him. Yes his work is beautiful no denying the quality but you will not receive your products on time!!! My wedding was in August 2014 and it has now been a year with no VIDEO!!! He does not respond to text, calls, emails or ups mail. Basically no communication on his part, we are still waiting for a response. My husband and I are very disappointed in his professionalism. We will now be going through legal services to obtain our video and money back.

    My wedding was on Nov. 2 2014 and I still HAVE NOT received my video. My husband and I have called and emailed with no response. Please DO NOT use George Drake. My husband and I paid a nice penny for his services and nothing to show for it but a 10 minute highlight.

    Pros-I received my highlight video within a week of being married and it was awesome.
    Cons-I've been married for a year and 4 months and we have yet to receive our full wedding video. We've called, emailed and sent messages on Facebook and Instagram, but he refuses to respond.
    Future brides, DO NOT USE GEORGE DRAKE!!! Even though the quality of his work is awesome, you may never receive all that you pay for.

    My husband and I chose George Drake based on the many positive reviews and the quality of his work. Initially and up to the wedding, Mr. Drake was very professional and accommodating. We received the Highlight Video link within a week of our wedding and we were very pleased. We have been married for over a year now and have yet to receive our wedding video and raw footage that we have paid for. We have attempted to contact Mr. Drake numerous times to have our wedding video sent to us with no success. Phone calls and emails have not been returned. We have since moved to a different State and are still in the process of retrieving our video or have communication with Mr. Drake to have this issue resolved. We both feel that having to wait a year to receive services that we paid for is unprofessional and is not something we would want future couples to go through. He does indeed do beautiful work, but it is heartbreaking to know that it is taking us so long to have the only thing to remember our wedding in our possession.

    It's been almost a year and we still haven't received our wedding video from the man. He will not respond to calls, texts, emails, Instagram, and will i.e. about his grand mother being sick. He is SCAM. Do not use him. And as echoed by there reviewers, we are seeking legal action against him. He has ruined the memory we have of our big day by denying us the privilege to view what we paid for.

    I previously posted a very positive comment in regards to George Drake A Moment Captured due to the fact that I received my wedding highlights and was very pleased. However this is a follow up and warning to whomever decides to use this company. My wedding was held June 8, 2013 there was a delay in getting my wedding highlights however I did received them, but the real problem has occurred with the wedding video. I have communicated with Mr. George on several occasions only to get an excuse as to why he has not sent out my video. I purchased the Bronze Package which was $999 at the time. Mr. George Drake was paid in full. It is now approaching a new year and I have yet to receive finished product. I have made several attempts to call him only to get voice mail and no returned calls in fact he has the calls screened before you can speak with him. I was deceived by his first impression professionalism. I have also submitted a claim to wedding wire about this business. I don’t believe anyone should have to experience this as my husband and I have.

    I want to start by saying George Drake can do great work and he's talented. BUT, I would not recommend anyone doing business with him! Before my wedding George seemed real professional and responded to all calls and matters in a timely manner. We even got our highlight video after the wedding a couple of days after the wedding (Which was great). Six months later, when the video should've been finished, we could not get in contact with him. It took weeks of us leaving voice mails and emails before he finally responded by saying he was sending the dvd. After it never showed up we called him again threatening to take legal actions. THEN HE SENT THE VIDEO OUT NEXT DAY! I'm leaving this comment so late because a close family friend hired him to do his wedding after seeing our highlight video. NOW HE'S TRYING TO FIND GEORGE DRAKE AND THE VIDEO HE PAID FOR IN FULL AS WELL!!!
