Committed. Creative. Passionate. Those are the three words to summarise amazing talent Michelle has to offer.

She created a few clips to highlight Japan Festival Wellington in 2018. In this video, Michelle was sure to include key important factors such as sponsors as well as various events (performances, stores, demonstrations and workshops) which was happening all over the venue at different times.

She was aware where to be and what to capture without being supervised - which tells me she understood the value we want to deliver and studied the event schedule in advance. Her lovely smile will brightens up anyone's day and I really enjoyed working with her! Thank you Michelle :)

Michelle is my top choice of Wellington videographers. She knows the value in composition, colour and timing and consistently produces videos to the highest degree of quality. As well as shooting incredible footage, she is also excited about the work being created on stage and that makes any performer feel way more comfortable to have a camera in front of them. The footage she has captured of my dance productions has been able to translate the energy and vibe of live performance into film and that is something so special!

Michelle has been working for the festival for years now, and continues to be a delight to work with! They are passionate, pro-active, and always up for a challenge. Their work is always delivered with a high level of care and finesse, with little direction needed from me as a client. I highly recommend their services!

Michelle created several video clips on cultural events of our Embassy, and did an amazing job whenever I worked with her. She knew what I wanted even before I asked, and got the best shots of our events. Thanks to her works, we were able to share the finest parts of Korean culture with many New Zealanders.

Asian Events Trust have had the pleasure to work with Fish & Swallow over many years to document Chinese New Year celebrations in Wellington. Michelle's passion and attention to detail to capture the essence of our event and to present it in an engaging way is nothing short of spectacular. We are so grateful to have such an amazing record of our event. This is a vital part of helping us achieve our goal to preserve our heritage while educating and enriching the wider community.

​Sharing our culture promotes understanding and with that comes acceptance. Having a record of Chinese New Year celebrations in Wellington transcends time and provides us with a legacy for future generations to appreciate and embrace the richness of our culture and traditions. Xie Xie Fish & Swallow - we love your work!​

If you're looking for someone to capture the essence of your event or project, Michelle is at the top of her game. She is attentive, responsive, and will put 100% effort into any project she is working on. Her attention to detail to work with clients, produce quality work and on time is incredible. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Michelle created a highlight reel for our conference, and on top of being incredibly reliable and punctual, was able to show the spirit of the event in just a 2 minute video! Would absolutely work with her again.

Thanks Michelle for the amazing video with one of our Monster treats. You captured the heart of the treat and customers reactions perfectly. I was so nervous but you’re so easy to be around. Love your work and hope we can work again together for future projects ❤️

I've worked with Michelle both as a client, and a colleague during a number of collaborative projects and fully intend to work together more in the future in both capacities. She has a warm, genuine manner that puts clients at ease and a work ethic that is formidable! Deadlines are met, technical hiccups are navigated with minimal fuss, and I have no complaints. A++ will work with again :)

Michelle created two short films for Little Yellow Bird. We were blown away by how easy Michelle was to work with and the amazing shots she managed to capture. Our films were always delivered early and exceeded our expectation. I would not hesitate to work with or hire Michelle again in the future.

Michelle from Fish & Swallow Productions was involved as the video production company for Lightning Lab XX in Wellington.  As a business looking to create a demo video for Patternsnap, we had been impressed with the quality and skill Michelle brought to all of the videos she produced during the Lab.
​
Michelle not only produced exactly what we were after, in super quick time (start ups have ridiculous deadlines!) she was amazing to deal with and brought her own ideas and talent to help us achieve exactly what we wanted, and more.  We will definitely be looking to engage Fish & Swallow for more videos, and wish her all the best with her business.  Thanks Michelle!

Michelle did an amazing job on our music video and shot it beautifully. The video quality was great and looks very professional. She did such a fantastic job on the editing and everything came together seamlessly. Great positive attitude, would love to work with her again. Thank you so much for all your hard work Michelle!

Michelle is both fantastic as a whole and a delight to work with! Passionate about their work, Professional to a P (capital and all!), and a /gem/! The shiniest kind! Both the shoot and resulting video was a highlight of my own year and definitely years to come ^^ I am already looking forward to working with them in the future :D​

I have worked with Michelle multiple times now and every time has been a delight. Prior, during and post the shooting dates she has been nothing but open and easy to work with and produces amazing results each time.

​I am so glad that I chose Fish & Swallow to video my wedding! Michelle is punctual and a great communicator. She made sure everything we wanted to be captured, was. I even had guests tell me afterwards how considerate and nice the camera people at the wedding were! For such a reasonable fee, we are absolutely over the moon with the special memories that we will have forever.
