Can you give me an approx quote on the video services provided for the day? What all did it include? We're debating whether we want to do video, or just stick with photos. We officially signed with Elizabeth Medina and are so excited to see how she captures the day!

I am sure his prices might have changed since our wedding a year ago, but we paid around $800 for his services. We received 2 videos both set to different music of our choice- 1 Highlight video and 1 full video. We had Brian Tsai of Life Mosaics do our pictures and they came out wonderful, but I am also glad we booked Miguel to do the video. Everytime I watch the video I still catch something new I hadn't seen before. I highly recommend him especially if you have room in your budget. If you have any other questions, please email me at cutiecupid15 at aol dot com. Good luck!! Oh by the way, I have our highlight video uploaded to YouTube, so if you want the link, send me an email.

I booked Miguel to do our video. We're just having him for 2 hours and getting a 30-40 minute video of the ceremony and "videostudio by the beach." It's going to cost us $550.00. They offer a longer time (4-5 hours of camera time w/ a 60 minute video) for $850.00

Thanks for the info, we've decided against the video, and instead put the extra money into our photography budget.

Hi Fly Girl,

That was a lot of typing, I hope you get some Karma points or something for all that work! Just to avoid any misunderstanding I would like to point out that those prices were taken from my current 2008 packages for weddings in the Maya Riviera area, pricing is subject to change at any time. I hope anyone that is interested in artistic photography for their wedding will fell free contact me for complete, current information.

best wishes!

Elizabeth
