“They captured the beauty of our wedding day PERFECTLY”

DC Wedding Photographer Reviews

I have had the pleasure of working with Michael on two weddings, the second of which was my own.

My wedding was January 2020, and I planned it by myself, in three months, while pregnant AND moving! As such, I chose vendors that I knew would make my day seamless. Michael and his team went above and beyond with my needs for photography and videography.

Tiptop Focus is professional, timely, has great communication, and last but certainly not least, is AMAZING when it comes to their craft. My husband and I were blown away by our wedding highlight video, and then blown away again when we received our wedding photos. They captured the beauty of our wedding day PERFECTLY. So many of our guests have requested their information for their events because they loved our photos and highlight video so much.

The best thing about Michael and his team is that they are naturals, and captured details I didn't even think of myself. Best of all, they are kind, nice, and made my wedding party as well as my guests feel comfortable and totally at ease!

As someone in the wedding business, I know that this can be a tough feat on wedding days when emotions and stress can run high. I can't thank Michael enough for capturing the love on my special day.

Even though things can be stressful planning a wedding in three months, the one thing I was never worried about were my photos and video. You will absolutely not be disappointed working with Tiptop Focus and I will be working with Michael for years to come on all video related needs for special events! — Carrie & Brian


“Exactly what any bride would hope for.”

I feel so lucky and honored to have gotten to work with Tiptop Focus! Michael went out of his way to be flexible, courteous, understanding and supportive.

Michael kept us at ease with his extreme professionalism and great instruction/prompting. His style truly captured the beauty and authenticity of the day. I received so many comments from family and friends that the highlight video allowed them to feel like they were with us experiencing the day too.

Stunning and so beautifully edited. I can’t believe the moments they were able to capture. Many endearing moments we never realized had happened until watching the highlight back. We literally can’t recommend Tiptop Focus enough and would use them again in a heartbeat!!!! — Rachel & Michael

“Definitely recommend the Tiptop team for your wedding”

Michael and his brother were excellent videographers for our wedding. Due to COVID-19 we had to scrap our big wedding and went with a Plan B ceremony which the team quickly adapted to, arriving promptly on-site and diligently capturing details. Our video was returned within one week. They also pitched our story to Love Stories TV which was fun to see. We were also provided with an engagement shoot and Michael made us feel comfortable and we were very pleased with the photos. Definitely recommend the Tiptop team for your wedding or other video needs!

“Thank you Michael for capturing our lifetime of memories in a special way!”

Michael filmed our wedding on May 26,2017. He did such an amazing job! From the beginning Michael was very professional. We booked Michael about 6 months prior to the wedding day and he kept in contact with us to make sure everything was all set up until the wedding day. Wedding day he was on-time and again very professional. We got our highlight video back in a timely manner and we were very satisfied with it. You can tell he put a lot of time and effort into the filming and editing.

The final product was REMARKABLE! He captured all of the special moments and if you weren't at the wedding you would definitely feel like you were just by watching the highlight video. Thank you Michael for capturing our life time of memories in a special way!

I would recommend Tiptop Focus to anyone for any occasion!

“We never even realized he was there, and he captured all of our important moments.”

Michael was great for our wedding videography. He showed up on time for both the rehearsal and the wedding and really fit in well. We never even realized he was there, and he was able to capture all of our important moments.

Our video was just what we wanted. It arrived about 2 weeks after the wedding and have since watched it (full length wedding video) several times. Would highly recommend.
