Maiko Media is absolutely incredible! As soon as we began wedding planning, I knew I needed to find the best videographer to capture our special day. I'm SO happy I found Kelsey and Maiko Media. From our initial phone call, I knew I wanted to work with Kelsey - she is so talented, artistic, kind, and her work is amazing. Our wedding day was an absolute dream and Kelsey and her husband captured it so perfectly. We knew the wedding films were going to be great but we were in complete awe when we received them. The films are so perfect and we can't wait to continue watching and reliving our special day for years to come.

Kelsey + Austin came all the way to Okinawa for our wedding day and we couldn’t be more grateful. They were our videographers for our wedding day and Kelsey also took our day after bridal photos. Not only were the video and photos beyond amazing, hanging out with Kelsey and Austin felt like hanging out with life long friends. They’re such easy going and kind people and my husband and I often try to find an excuse to go to Michigan to hangout with them. I have Kelsey’s photos as my Lock Screen, printed in our house, and I’m so excited to watch our wedding film again on our wedding anniversary. 2020 has definitely been a crazy year, but having these beautiful keepsakes to look back on is so special to us. Kelsey perfectly capture our day and the amazing dreamy photos from the day after. Couldn’t ask for better!!! 100000000000x recommend over and over !

Maiko Media is extraordinary! To see our wedding day through the eyes of Kelsey, Austin, Tommy, and Evelin was astonishing. They captured the silly and awkward moments as something beautiful, romantic, and poetic. They didn’t miss a thing—the big moments and even the tiniest details. A true master at their craft, we could not have had anyone better. Best of all, they were the kindest, coolest people—and in your most intimate and important moments, you want people around that feel like family. That’s what Maiko Media was for us.

Where do I begin? I cannot tell you how many compliments I have heard from my wedding party, guests, family, and husband about how wonderful Kelsey, Austin and Evelin were to work with on our wedding day! From beginning to end, they captured our story perfectly. I am in complete awe of their talent and their hearts. Having their team as our photographers and videographers was truly a blessing.

Living in Japan where taking engagement photos is still a new thing, I was having a hard time finding a photographer that had the eye I was looking for. It just so happened that Kelsey would be in Japan during the most beautiful season - cherry blossom season - to do our engagement shoot! I was afraid my awkwardness would show up on the photos, but Kelsey has a way of directing and guiding gently behind the camera, allowing you to be your best and natural self. The day was like a dream - and she captured it so beautifully. I also had the privilege of having her shoot our wedding in the States. I am grateful that these are the photos my children and grandchildren will see of us years from now. Kelsey truly captured history for us. I also really appreciated her flexibility, punctuality, and advice on so many things. Definitely consider Maiko Media for documenting your memorable and historical moments!

I don't even know where to begin when it comes to Kelsey and Maiko Media. I had the privilege of Maiko Media doing the videography at my wedding as well as designing my wedding invitations! From the beginning Kelsey was accessible, helped me in the brainstorming process, listened to my vision for the day and put my heart at rest. Her attention to detail was excellent and went above and beyond what I had dreamed of. One of my favorite things about Maiko Media is her ability to create a video that tells YOUR story. When Kelsey shows up to your wedding, she has a knack for picking up on your personality and is able to capture that on camera. When I watched our wedding video for the first time I was amazed at how she totally captured our day and the emotions that surrounded it. I'm so grateful to have worked with her!

What can I say! Her pictures speak a thousand words! Kelsey did our engagement, wedding and anniversary photos and they could not be better! She is not only a fantastic artist and photographer, but has a wonderful cheerful spirit! She has a certain natural authenticity to her pictures and captures such perfect moments beautifully. When we were looking for someone for our wedding, I kept looking for photographers that were affordable and had an artistic look to their photography, and I remember looking at Kelsey's photography and knowing she had exactly what I was looking for! She also is able to take pictures and edit them quickly and exquisitely! Every time I have received our photos I have been blown away! I can't ever stop looking at them and can never figure out which ones are my favorites because I end up loving all of them! If you are considering any photographer for wedding, newborn, family or any type of occasion, choose Maiko Media, you won't regret it!

I was one of those brides who refused to believe she wanted videography. That is until I was only a few months out, not knowing exactly what I wanted, but knowing that we would want to see all the things I knew we'd miss on the happiest and most chaotic day of our life. I was referred to Kelsey from our photographer, and saying yes to her was the easiest part of planning I did! Kelsey saw our wedding in a way that brings me to tears just thinking about it. She has a beautiful eye, an incredible way of just understanding you, when we had never met prior to our wedding day. When we received the trailer, not knowing what to expect, I literally watched it on repeat, tears rolling down my face. It was exactly, and yet nothing, what I expected. It was perfect. I would (and have) recommend her to ANYONE looking for an amazing videographer who just so happens to be a fun person to hang out with on the happiest day of their life.

Pretty much from the day we got engaged, my husband and I knew that if we could only pick a couple of things to splurge on for the wedding, our photographer was going to be one of them. We are so happy we did! Kelsey was absolutely amazing to work with. We met her first when she shot our engagement photos and what amazing photos! We could hardly wait to see what she would capture on our wedding day, and she and Evelin, her second shooter, were simply perfect. They captured so many moments that flew by far too quickly! Kelsey and Evelin arrived bright and early to capture all of the pre-celebration moments and fit in everything we wanted - helping to orchestrate a first look between my husband and me that we will never forget. Throughout the day, Kelsey and Evelin blended in so easily and we, our families, and guests were left with treasured memories. So many moments of love, laughter, and happiness! And we weren't kept waiting; Kelsey had our photos to us about a month after the wedding. They are stunning! We couldn't be any happier and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.

I am blessed beyond words to have been referred to Kelsey Bock. We had the pleasure of working with Maiko Media through our engagement photos as well as wedding photos and video. It is hard to put into words how pleased we were with every aspect of their art and could not have chosen a better option for this life-changing event. They are the most kind individuals that truly made this event a day to remember! Thank you Maiko Media for your kind hearts and professionalism! We cannot wait to work with you again!

Maiko Media was absolutely fantastic to work with! Prior to the wedding, Kelsey worked with us to develop the perfect package that fit our needs at a price we could afford. Throughout the wedding day, Kelsey and her assistant photographer were very easy to work with. They were fun and made us laugh, which helped calm our nerves and helped us be at ease. It's so important that photographers are personable. It honestly seemed like they were just old friends that we had known forever, rather than photographers we had only known for a few months. After the wedding, Kelsey finished our pictures and sent them to us very quickly. We actually got to see our pictures before we returned from our honeymoon! And the pictures, my goodness, the pictures are beautiful. They captured all of the romantic, sentimental, touching, happy, and silly moments we wanted. The quality of the photographs is simply spectacular. We highly recommend Maiko Media for any photography needs you may have!

Kelsey did both our wedding photography and highlight film. I was worried that it might be a daunting job for her, but she handled it amazingly. It was so much fun working with both Kelsey and her husband, Austin. They made everything so easy and natural! Kelsey caught every little moment that we were hoping for on our wedding day. She really has a talent of telling a love story through her photo's and films. We have gotten so many compliments on her work! We could not be happier!
