“Moritz was a delight to work with. Professional and took all the stress away from us on such a sad day. We did contemplate doing it ourselves and im so glad we didn't as whomever would have done it wouldn't have focused on the funeral but also Moritz had all the specialist equipment and a giant microphone that picked up the priests speech.
All our family in Italy were able to watch live. I had tons of messages afterwards saying how lovely the service was, they were able to see and hear everything clearly.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Moritz for the job.”
“Moritz Schmittat Photography were excellent to deal with, and were able to accommodate all our requests for a funeral service. I would not hesitate in using them again”
“Highly recommend Funeral Memories. A quality, straightforward, professional service from the first point of contact through to the end. We were advised on the approach to the livestreaming upfront, and given options to meet our requirements. On the day of the funeral Moritz didn’t need any direction - he just handled the filming of the service confidently, competently and sensitively. Throughout the process we felt we were in safe hands. We are still receiving thanks from all those who joined virtually, along with remarks of their amazement at the clarity of picture, quality of sound and overall virtual experience.
This was all greatly appreciated at a difficult time with many people to correspond with in the lead up to, and at, the funeral. It was incredibly important to us to have family and friends from around the world who couldn’t be there in person join us virtually, and for their attention on the service not to be compromised by glitchy technology. We are incredibly grateful to Funeral Memories for enabling this to happen. We hadn’t anticipated the benefits of having the livestream available beyond the funeral day itself, but this too is helpful.”
“Moritz's live streaming of our mother's funeral was wonderful. Those who could not physically attend were able to follow the on-line order of service while watching, and felt very much part of the service. The comments we received from them later spoke of how lovely it was, and they were very grateful for the live stream. I watched the recording back later - the filming was crystal clear, and the close ups of the flowers and the altar were particularly poignant. Not only did it trasmit faithfully the service in all its spirit, but those of us who were present saw things on the recording that we had missed eg. some of the mourners arriving. It was lovely of Moritz to pan in on the family before the service started so that we could wave to our son who was watching from Australia. Moritz's sympathetic and subtle filming enhanced the whole experience for all of us and I would highly recommend him.”
“I can’t thank Moritz enough for the brilliant job he did streaming my husband’s funeral. Sound and visuals perfect. So professional and made it so beautiful to watch for family abroad. They all committed on the quality of the streaming. Already one of my husbands cousins wants to book him for his founeral as streaming in a Greek Orthodox Church can be a challenge. Thank you from all of Gaby’s family.”
“I contacted Moritz for the live stream of my mother's funeral. He was so easy to deal with and managed all on his own once I gave him the details, which was ideal as had a lot going on. On the day he quietly got on with it and covered the whole funeral and everyone managed to stream live with no issues. I would highly recommend him as he is dependable, quickly responds, respectful, and all hassle free. That's the kind of service you want on one of the hardest days you will go through. Thank you Moritz.”
“We were very impressed by the funeral streaming, this allowed those who could not attend and those abroad to feel a part of the service.
The service was professional, non intrusive and all streamed at a very high quality.
Moritz was kind, communicates well and respectful of the occasion.
The difference is the streaming provided by the crematorium and Funeral Memories is miles apart.
The video was captured almost from the perspective of someone who was in attendance.
There is so much that happens on the day that you may miss and having the video allows us to appreciate and reflect as a family.
I would highly recommend this service and extend my heartfelt thanks to Moritz.”
