    Phenomenal Videographer and Person

    Mark was absolutely phenomenal to work with. He went over and above to accommodate our wishes and even came to our rehearsal dinner to capture footage that we will cherish for a lifetime. Mark was very detail oriented, open to feedback, and great at his job. Everyone we shared our wedding video with talked about how it really captured the day, the emotions, and felt like a movie they were re-living. He was affordable, friendly, and easy to communicate with. We highly recommend Mark for your wedding.

    Blended In

    Mark and I found each other on a Northern Virginia Wedding Facebook group. I was looking for a videography team for our three-day Indian wedding. Mark reached out with so much enthusiasm I couldn't say no. It was 100% the right decision. Mark and his partner blended into the background and worked seamlessly with our photographers.

    Hire mark!

    Where do you even start when talking about Mark?! First off, he was the absolutely the first vendor I hired. I actually hired him for my sister’s wedding. We were so happy with his work that we hired him for ours! I was a COVID bride and changed our plans 4 times before we got married. Mark rolled with all the plans and the lack there of. He even reached out with ideas and advice when I was at my lowest and unsure of what decisions to make.

    We ended up needing to get married because my husband is in the military and we got orders overseas. To have a COVID safe wedding, Mark live streamed the entire event AND the first dance AND the speeches. I can’t tell you how much it meant to us to know that they family that couldn’t be “with us” was with us. It was so perfect. Mark was like an extended part of the bridal party.

    Just some of the little things you can expect if you hire Mark:
    - him to think of EVERYTHING. Even in our livestream, he took our rehearsal dinner slideshow and played that before the livestream started for the guests at home waiting. We didn’t ask for that he just knew it would be a great touch. We got so many compliments about that.
    -incredible drone footage. AMAZING shots of the vineyard. It was super hot on our day and mark even set up the drone as a fan. He also ran and got his car and let me sit in it during the downtime of pictures.
    -a movie quality final video. I was nervous because we had no real reception with dancing. I thought our video would be boring. But no, Mark made it entertaining, beautiful and very us. Complete awe - it is so much more than I expected and envisioned.
    -him to become family. Mark is family now.

    My husband and I felt honored to have Mark be part of our wedding, let alone, create the magic that he did. I will be hiring them for all and any events I have in the future. I have one brother left to get married and you best believe Mark will be there too. ; D

    There was so many compromises I had to make for my wedding but the one thing I knew I wanted was MAO events. There may have been a lot of planning tears, but when I saw my video there was nothing but happy tears. I can’t thank Mark enough. If you have any doubts, get the videographer and more importantly book Mark.

    A Storyteller & Consummate Professional

    Mark is a storyteller first and also a consummate professional. He was never in the way but always where he should be. I picked him before I was even officially engaged because his capturing of the weddings of strangers had me tears when I watched his reel. He takes his job extremely seriously and is so respectful. The final product was wonderful. Can’t recommend him enough.

    Highly recommend


    Mark Obradovich of MAO Films created a special memento of our daughter’s and son-in-law’s wedding. He captured the essence of their love for each other through the beautiful images in the cinematic highlight film. He is very meticulous & detailed -- it showed in the films/videos he produced for us.

    To boot, Mark was exceptionally kind, patient, and accommodating (with all our special requests and requirements).
    We sincerely wish Mark much success & happiness in his film/videography business and personal life.

    MAO Films Rocks!

    Mark is an extremely talented videographer and I would highly recommend him for your wedding and any other events! Our wedding was earlier this year and Mark did an all around amazing job. He took beautiful shots of every aspect of our wedding, from the actual ceremony to the reception (and he even was there for the rehearsal dinner!). He was very skilled with the drone footage and the editing of our footage was terrific. I was very impressed with Mark’s abilities as a videographer, how helpful he was as well as easy to work with, and with the final product Mark gave us. Our wedding day highlight film was perfect! To top it off, Mark’s pricing was very competitive as well.

    Thank you MAO Films!

    Couldn't be happier with our video!

    When we were wedding planning we were really hesitant to hire a videographer. I wasn’t sure if it would be worth the cost and I’ve been to other weddings where the videographer was distracting and the end product just didn’t seem worth the money. However, when a friend sent me Mark’s videos, I was blown away. He seemed to truly capture the most amazing parts of the day, which was really important to me. The videos make you want to watch from beginning to end, even for couples you don’t know. There’s just a magic to them that shows the happiness of the day. Our own video was so much more than we could have expected. Mark was so easy to work with and listened to the aspects we wanted captured. It was easy to share with family and friends who couldn’t be there and we will be watching this one many times over! I’m over-the-moon with the results and couldn’t recommend Mark enough! He is truly talented!

    Choose Mao Films!

    Mark filmed our wedding this past September, and he did not disappoint! My husband was really adamant about capturing our wedding via video, so I researched and looked into many different companies. We were searching for someone that not only edits and films in our style, but would also tell our heartfelt story. Mark did and does exactly that! You won’t be disappointed.
