Customers reviews
Hiring a videographer or photographer can be a daunting task. Even more so for something as important as an Arlington Service. While we can tell you that we are the best at covering these services, the real testimonial should come from families that have already trusted us to cover their service.

Arlington Media is the only company I would recommend for services at Arlington Cemetery. I contacted all the companies that offer similar services and interviewed them all. By FAR Cliff at Arlington is the BEST Choice. We buried my father and the ceremony was breathtaking and will leave anyone speechless. The only way to remember forever are the photos and AMAZING Video that Arlington Media produced. Just call Cliff and tell him Earl said he is the BEST!

We were very pleased to find Arlington Media to provide a livestream for my father's funeral as some family members were unable to travel and attend. The full professional video that we received after the service is a wonderful memory for the honors he received. Would definitely recommend.

Arlington Media did an outstanding job capturing the dignity and honor of my father's burial in Arlington National Cemetery. They could not have been more professional in how they manged the day and were extremely helpful in providing information and guidance leading up to the day of my father's ceremony. I am grateful my family and I will have this lasting memory.

Our family was more than pleased with the services provided to us by Arlington Media for my fathers internment at Arlington National Cemetery. I would highly recommend their services if you find yourself in a position where we were. Very cold weather, close to a holiday, elderly unable to travel. The Live stream service provided access to all those unable to attend, and for this we are extremely grateful. As a bonus, we found this organization to be prompt, communicative and clear. Top notch!

Arlington Media was extremely professional and very detail oriented. They captured the memories of my dads interment service beautifully and the quality of the video and photos were outstanding. They were also able to add our personal videos and pictures to the primary video to give it a personal touch. We will cherish the videos and photos for many generations to come. Thank you.

I was on the fence of hiring someone and if we "needed" it. I decided that my dad deserved it and we deserved the photos and video to look back on or show my kids what an amazing honor he received. They kept in touch leading up to the service, the morning of and during the service. They stayed out of our way but was able to capture everything and more. I can't thank them enough. They exceeded our expectations, and we don't regret purchasing the photos/video. Highly recommend!

Not only did Arlington media live stream my mother's funeral, but they also did my father's funeral with full honors at Arlington Cemetery. They were unobtrusive, and you wouldn't have really known they were there, except they were there streaming and taking wonderful pictures. I received my flash drives recently for my dad's funeral, and it was absolutely beautiful and so very well done. I heartily advise anyone who is having a funeral at Arlington to use Arlington media. You will not be disappointed.

This is the best product I have ever received. My father served for 33+ years in the United States Coast Guard and retired as a two ⭐️ ⭐️ Rear Admiral. His Internment at Arlington National Cemetery was with Full Honors, Caisson, Navy Band, 21 gun salute. This was all captured and preserved forever by Arlington Media. I still can’t get threw the whole video and haven’t started looking at any of the over 850 HD still shots but, my family, friends and all Veterans can view them at any time, forever. There were 100’s of folks in there 70’s and even 80’s that could not make the trip to Arlington. They called and thanked me profusely and said they even invited their friends over (and friend’s friends)who had never seen a funeral at ANC not to mention even met my dad to watch the LIVE video. Think about that! A dear friend of my dad’s (and step mom also resting there) told me that she was there that day. That she didnt miss the parade and the celebration. I stopped and thought to myself, I didn’t do a (cuss word(s))thing but send an email. The phone rang and the owner and president of Arlington Media asked a few incredibly loaded and fact gathering questions and??? Everything happened! The only mistake made was.. .. .. I didn’t order enough of the “foot locker” canisters that hold the thumb drives of the video and photos. Don’t ask me the exact total that I spent was but maybe $2500.. $3000. I would pay $10 or $15 thousand dollars to have this done. I’ll stop now but let’s thanks all the Veterans buried at ANC and all that have served, are serving and will in the future.

I'm am more than grateful that I had a video made of my husband's memorial service at Arlington National Cemetery. There was so much detail that I missed and the others too, that the video captured. This video will be a legacy for the children, grandchildren for years to come. I keep saying to myself, I'm so happy I had this video made....It may be a little pricey for me, but worth every cent. What a beautiful way to honor my husband, and to share with family/friends for years. It's also a great way for others to have an opportunity to see a burial at ANC. Very grateful for this opportunity.

We had several family members that were unable to attend my father's service at the last minute. I called just a few days prior to his service to make arrangements with Arlington Media. Despite the short notice, we were treated with the upmost kindness and respect. The videos and photographs are simply stunning and were delivered within the time promised. We are very grateful to have these memories of Arlington. Thank you so much!

I am very pleased with the attention given to me and my family while at ANC.My video is outstanding.After reviewing everything, I see that I missed an opportunity to capture briefly, candid shots of my husband’s family members in attendance.All things considered 20/20 is hindsight.I love my experience and will highly recommend Arlington Media in the future.~ Rev Vanetta Bellows

Arlington Media provided the photo and video shoot for my husband's graveside service at Arlington National Cemetery. The video was breathtaking and some many pictures of every move (over 400). These are memories our family will cherish for years to come. I am so glad we decided to use Arlington Media for this service. They were very professional, in constant communication and answered so many questions, some not related to the photography but regarding what to expect at ANC in general. Through a difficult time, Clifford made this a much easier process than I could have imagine. Thank you for everything. Dee

Arlington Media did a fantastic job with both photos and video of our loved ones' funeral. We are so glad to have these memories to pass down to our children so they can remember how special this was for their grandparents. The cameras were non intrusive and captured moments we could not see or fully appreciate in the moment. We are extremely appreciative of the professionalism of the photographers and the excellent work they produced. We would highly recommend their services.

My father in law, a lieutenant colonel, was buried at Arlington with full honors. He served a distinguished 22 years in the Army including 2 tours in Vietnam. He always lamented the way he was treated upon his return to the US after his tours. He would have been very proud of the way he was treated by the Honor Guard at Arlington, finally getting the respect he deserved. My wife and I were very happy that we were able to preserve this occasion for generations of our family to come. Something to be very proud of. Our Photographer was very professional and respectful knowing the emotions of the situation. She captured the event wonderfully and we were very happy with our decision to do this. If I had one regret it would be that we only did still photos and not video to capture the true moments that only video would have done.

I highly recommend Arlington Media to film your loved one's funeral.

Arlington Media did a superb job recording my fathers internment. It was a seamless process. They were in place with microphones set up for sound and the actual cameras were off in the distance. No one even knew they were even there. Very professional. The quality of the video is top notch! Thank you!

We contacted Arlington Media to record our father's Arlington Cemetery service. They were wonderful to work and especially understanding considering the pandemic. We initially planned to have the service in the summer of 2020 and were so glad that they offered a live streaming option for our many relatives who were hesitant to travel. As the pandemic worsened, we rescheduled the service to October of 2021 and Arlington Media changed our reservation without a problem. They were always responsive and returned my calls promptly. Was very pleased to receive private links to the live stream and later to the completed video to make it easier to share with relatives. Appreciated the additional cameras and microphones that were part of the final video! Was able to hear the service in spite of the planes from nearby National Airport. The video arrived on a beautiful thumb drive that we will keep with our father's flag. I highly recommend Arlington Media!

I contacted Arlington Media on the recommendation of the funeral director coordinating a graveside service at Arlington National Cemetery. Mr. Crittenden provided an excellent video livestream for family and friends who couldn’t attend the service, and a produced video/photo package of extraordinary quality. The excellent photos and video were captured so discreetly that several of the attendees didn’t know there was a photographer there. The finished product is very tasteful and professionally done. I highly recommend Arlington Media to those who want a lasting photo and/or video tribute to their loved one.

A seamless experience from service request through electronic delivery of photo media. The best value here is that you can focus on the purpose of being at Arlington National Cemetery, and the Arlington Media photographer can capture all of the moments that you will want to remember.

Arlington Media recently recorded my father’s full military honors funeral at Arlington National Cemetery from the chapel to gravesite. He was a Vice Admiral, and was accorded an honor guard, flag bearer, caisson with horses, band, firing party, bugler, the works. The photographers and videographers captured every detail while being completely unobtrusive. Since this is all they do, they knew exactly where to set up shots, place cameras, handle audio levels. They recorded actions that we didn’t even get to see, like the cannon salute behind a hill. The quality of the still photographs and the video was professional and beautiful. Even the packaging of the flash drives was impressive – well labeled and custom fitted in hinged metal containers. My family was so pleased with their work and would recommend Arlington Media to anyone scheduling a funeral service at Arlington National Cemetery.

From my first contact to receiving the photos, Clifford could not have been more responsive and helpful. We had 3 postponements due to COVID and each time we rescheduled he worked with us to ensure everything went off without a hitch. His photographer was amazing. He must have run to get shots in front of and behind the action nearly at the same time. He took over 600 photos and I only noticed him once during the whole hour. The photos are clear and capture every moment from every angle. Much of what occurred during the service I couldn't see as I was too far away, but the photos were up close and told the whole story. In addition, Clifford provided other pertinent information regarding an Arlington service that I wasn't able to find anywhere on line. I'd recommend Arlington Media without any reservations.

Arlington Media supported our family with live stream coverage as well as final videos for both my brother in law and my husband. There was no question in my mind to call them when my husband passed away for his burial at Arlington National Cemetery in July... I already knew of their professional, responsive and excellent quality when we buried my husband's brother at Arlington National Cemetery a year ago. I only had to go to their website and order what I wanted and they professionally took care of every detail. The streaming allowed friends and family to be with us in spirit and the final video was beautiful! They provided me with such a tribute I'll cherish!

I was initially hesitant to employ any media service for my husband's funeral. However, with the Covid restrictions in place and the number of people wanting to attend the service but could not, and the thought of the attendees taking their photos, I quickly changed my mind. In researching media services, I was impressed with Arlington Media's website and reviews. When I asked the hotel and the bagpiper who they would recommend, I was told Arlington Media.Before the service, Arlington Media contacted me to verify the date, time and ensured that access to the live stream was available. Numerous friends and relatives from all over the world were able to view the service in real-time, and the quality was remarkable.At the end of the service, one of the photographers asked me if there were any photos I would like to be taken. These were taken without hesitation.I chose to get the photos on a thumb drive, and I was shocked at the number of photos taken (about 400!); the photos' quality is phenomenal, and Arlington Media captured some very poignant and candid shots. In addition, I received my copy of the service that I will be able to keep.At the service, Arlington Media was very discreet and professional. Several people who attended the service were unaware that photos were being taken until I shared the photos with them.I would highly recommend Arlington Media to anyone looking for discreet and professional media services.

Arlington Media appears to be a small company; however, you will not be disappointed with their professionalism and quality of service. From the initial call to the day of the service, I received exceptional customer service and they notified me of their arrival as stated in our previous calls. Arlington Media provided live stream services (huge benefit for family members unable to attend), videography and photography of the complete service. Remember professionalism takes times (editing photographs, videography, and production of the photograph booklets). If you have a concern, call Arlington Media and they will kindly provide you an update on your order. Arlington Media is an excellent choice for capturing your life long memories. If you have a family member being buried at Arlington Cemetery, consider Arlington Media.

Arlington Media is a outstanding company! We recently used their services during a most difficult time. My father was honored with a burial service at Arlington National Cemetery this year. During COVID-19, there was a great need to use a professional to not only capture the moment and have it available for family and friends to attend virtually but also capture the importance of the venue. I was absolutely satisfied with the quality and professionalism. I highly recommend them.

Arlington Media did a professional job for my dad's burial at Arlington National Cemetery in March of 2021. They set up a live feed of the service for his numerous family members all over the country and the world to participate, in light of the covid restrictions. The quality of the dvd they produced and later sent was excellent. The customer service was great, no problems. They delivered on everything requested. During the service they were unobtrusive and we didn't even notice their presence. I highly recommend Arlington Media for anyone who needs their services.

Arlington Media videotaped my Father's beautiful yet treacherous service during an icestorm. They were faithfully there under the very bad driving conditions. My family members who could not be there are extremely thankful that I ordered the video which was absolutely a professional, memorable, and honorable tribute to such a wonderful man.

Arlington Media covered my mother's burial service. I found them at the last minute and I am extremely grateful that I did. They did a fantastic job and with very short notice. I was unable to attend the service due to severe weather conditions and I was devastated. With Arlington Media I was able to watch the service on a live stream and they also provided me with the service on DVD and still photos on a flash drive. The DVD is beautifully edited and contain some extras that make it really special. I would highly recommend their services to anyone who is having a service for a loved one there. I only wish I had found them before my father's service.

Arlington Media covered both my parents’ funerals and did an excellent job! We could not have been more pleased with the beautiful quality of the finished product. So many details of my father’s funeral that we had not seen in person were in the video, all the military honors were captured, it was perfect. My mother’s funeral was live streamed due to Covid and it was wonderful for all who could not attend.

You will never find anyone that can do a better job than Arlington Media. Their pictures capture every moment and the quality of the pictures are excellent. Cliff is a joy to work with, very professional, fast turnaround time and you are sent a text message to let you know they are in place and ready to shoot giving you peace of mind and they are not intrusive during the service. There are so many moments you would miss if it wasn’t for Cliff and his camera. Thank you Cliff for the beautiful memories of my Mother.

The video of my Dad's service was beautifully recorded. The service provided by Arlington Media was everything they promised it would be. The reassurance they provided on the day of the service was so comforting to my Mom especially, as she was counting on this video for all the people who couldn't attend in the time of Covid. They let us know when they were on the property without being intrusive, and captured every moment just as I remember it. Thank you Arlington Media for the care you took in preserving this memory for us. Well done!

Arlington Media provided live streaming services for my father's funeral at Arlington National Cemetery.

I chose Arlington Media (AM)based on reviews and what services I felt I needed. All calls and questions were answered in a timely manner. Pricing was at fair price point, but AM gave our family an option for an affordable live link. The live link was my original need as COVID prevented older family members and friends from traveling to Arlington National Cemetery. It became more important to have set up as VA started to decrease the number of attendees to gatherings. I got tremendous emails of gratitude from all those that watched on the live link and now the video link was done so well and is a great treasure to preserve such a beautiful service. Professional, stealthy, and quality product. Thank you to Clifford and his crew. Highly Recommend

I think I have lost count of how many nice emails I have gotten thanking me for streaming the ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery. As our service was only attended in person by family and representatives of the 83rd ID, this was the only chance to attend for many. My sister, son, friends in Belgium and the UK were able to pay their respects on a sunny, cold and windy day. Most of all, my mom was able to follow the ceremony from her assisted living home.I highly recommend the video streaming to anyone. Even if there were no restrictions, this would be a good way to include elderly or family members posted around the world. They will thank you for including them.My complements to the videographer, there has been nothing but praise for capturing this solemn but beautiful ceremony. One of the better decisions I have made. Thanks to everyone!

Arlington Media provided beautiful coverage of my late husband's service. They were prompt, professional and reassuring. Particularly important during the 2020 pandemic, their services enabled close family members and friends around the world to view the service as it happened. The photos and video that followed are wonderful and evocative--they capture the experience so well. In fact, friends who attended but could not hear the Chaplain can hear his comments on the video.

At the last minute one of my children could not attend their grandfather's funeral at Arlington National Cemetary. I did some research and found Cliff and Arlington Media. I called him on a Sunday morning not expecting a call back until Monday evening. He called me back in just a few minutes. Cliff was knowledgable and calming, which I needed because my father's service was just 4 days away. We were so glad Cliff had an opening. Cliff provided web streaming and a video. Everything was just as he said. ANC was familiar with Cliff and Cliff very familiar with ANC and a full honors service. It was contactless and Cliff kept me informed through a series of texts so I never had to wonder about anything. Billing and the video were all done just as he said. The quality of the web streaming was great. The video is priceless! There are views of the service I didn't even notice. Now we have such a wonderful celebration of our father memorialized. It also reminded us of our mother's funeral who is buried with my father. Thank you Cliff and Arlington Media you exceeded my already high expectations!

The photos were crisp and clear and delivered in very nice memorial tin.Thank you for making this hard time such a beautiful thing to be remembered.

My family contracted with Arlington Media to film and photograph my husband's burial service at Arlington National Cemetery. Their personnel were very professional and discreet in capturing the people and events at the burial service. They did not disturb any phase of the honors ceremony...you hardly knew they were there. The end product of photographs and video represent a beautiful and wonderful remembrance of the burial service. These photos and video of the full military honors and the people in attendance will be cherished by our family for generations. So happy to be able to pass these memories down to our family and to be able to share the memories with other friends and family. Well worth the cost to capture something so moving which honored a "soldier for life" who deserved every phase of the honors. Thank you to Cliff Crittendon and his staff for this wonderful gift.

Perfect. As expected, I was a mess at the gravesite so Arlington Media took all the pictures. Those pictures were marvelous. Plenty to choose from, all were good. Sent the contact info for the pictures to my sister in Australia so she could see and download them too. Thank you, Clifford, for the excellent photographer you sent out and the great way you handled it.

Cliff and Arlington Media are A+. Great customer service, easy process, fantastic results. At the beginning of the process I found their brochure easy to understand and right away I knew that I wanted a videotape of my mom's (spouse of vet) burial. We are not a very photogenic family so I knew that I did not want pictures. I booked them right away and that process was quick and easy. I met Cliff on the day of the burial and he was most kind and just took care of everything. He remained in the background and just made things work. Then the thumb drive arrived in the mail enclosed in a great personalized metal case. With trepidation I watched the video for the first time -- again we are not photogenic. Amazing quality. High professional quality. Everything was perfect and even we looked good. Lots of nice surprised such as the fly-in, shot of the section and grave #, and weather noted. Close-up of the rose on the casket corner, other shots panning the area, etc. I immediately sent it to all the relatives who were unable to attend. Every person wrote back thanking me and commenting on the quality of the video. They said that they felt like they were actually there. What a fantastic memory and way to honor my mother. Well done Arlington Media.

Arlington Media was wonderful in filming my Dad's ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery (ANC) - I ordered the picture and video service for a full Military ceremony, and the pictures and video are fantastic! We were concentrating on the burial ceremony and it was great to know that someone else was taking care of documenting the ceremony. They are very knowledgeable about ANC and you would never know they were there. It's worth it to enlist them - you see things from the ceremony that you didn't see at the time. A great remembrance.

When planning our Father's internment at Arlington National Cemetery we wanted to make sure to document the ceremony for those family members that could not attend and posterity. We chose Arlington Media and could not be happier. Working with Clifford and Arlington Media was both easy and pain-free. From the scheduling, Day of and communications afterwards, Clifford was a true professional. We purchased both the Pictures and Video. My mother, siblings and I just watched the Video and Pictures yesterday after a little over 1 month since the ceremony and it was Incredible. Video captured the entire ceremony from views and angles we missed. There was so much of the day that we missed due to the circumstances. The Video and Pictures captured it all. From my Mother, Brother, Sister and I... Thank You Clifford and Arlington Media. You have given us something beautiful to remind us always of our beloved Father!

I would like to take a moment to thank Cliff for the extremely impressive video he made of our dad's burial at Arlington National Cemetery. The video was nothing but first class: the 4K resolution, the camera placements, the sound, everything exceeded our expectations. Even the USB thumb drive that we ordered extra was impressive with the printing on the outside of the thumb drive as well as on the metal case it came in. We were very hesitant to order a video but we're so glad we did, it is a great way to honor our dad and we are sure that it will be passed down through the generations. The whole process was seamless and non-intrusive. We made the right choice hiring Arlington Media. Thank you Cliff.

I doubt anyone can capture the emotions and depth of feelings that Arlington National Cememtery and the military funeral services evoke, but Arlington Media-Photography and Video came as close as I think possible. The video and photos taken during my husband's service are very professional, and profound in both clarity and content. There was no evidence of a photographer present during the service. Cliff was great to work with-good communication, fast turn around, and very helpful. I am most grateful to ArlingtonMedia for the treasured keepsakes they created to honor my husband

Arlington Media did a wonderful job with documenting my father's funeral. The weather was rainy and cool, yet they were there without fail. The music and the videos were top-notch. It was important for our family to have this documentation as not all members could be present and, in the moment, sometimes one is not aware of all the details of the funeral. It was nice to review the video and note the "Old Guard" and note the band and 21-gun salute, along with the piper. It is a cherished memory.

Arlington Media did a fantastic job with their video and photography of my father's burial with honors. The company is very professional and the quality of both the video and photos are first rate in both artistry and compassion. We now have a treasured legacy to be handed down to generations to come. They also produce the disks so they can be copied for family that could not attend. I highly recommend it. Don't hesitate.

Arlington Media was exceptional every step of the way as we planned for our Dad's burial services. From the moment I spoke to Clifford, I knew Arlington Media was the perfect match for us. Clifford was very kind, compassionate and extremely helpful -- he graciously spent some time walking me through the day. We are very grateful to have footage and photography -- treasured remembrances of our Dad. Thank you Arlington Media for your seamless job. With much gratitude, all of the Fitzgeralds.

Arlington Media offers a terrific service to families who are burying loved ones at ANC. The finished video is a beautiful remembrance of every detail of the burial, with flourishes that set an appropriate mood for viewing the video. We're very pleased with our video of my parents' burial, and grateful for their high-quality work.

Arlington Media was extremely professional and respectful. It was a difficult decision to hire a company to record what was an intensely personal and somber occasion. However, we knew the very nature of the occasion would prevent us from seeing all there was to see, to be able to cherish every moment of a very worthy tribute to our Dad. It was important to hire a company that understood this, that would be extremely discreet, and would honor our Dad’s memory by creating a very moving record of our final farewell with all the respect the occasion warranted. Arlington Media succeeded in all of this beyond our expectations. We hardly knew they were there, yet the photographs and video captured the breadth of the event in a way that allows us each time we view them to offer our Dad the love and respect he earned over a lifetime of service as we relive such a fitting tribute. Our sincere thanks to Arlington Cemetery and, in particular, to Arlington Media for preserving such a grand occasion for us.

Arlington Media photographed my father's Arlington service this past April. Our family could not have been more pleased with the precious photographs they provided us with, and are so happy to have them to share with family and friends. Arlington is a special place to be buried. Having these pictures will allow the great grandchildren, who knew him, but won't remember much as they get older to be able to look back and be as proud of him as all of us are who knew him as an adult. I would highly recommend you consider hiring Arlington Media, as they knew where to be to get the best pictures. I treasure them every time I look at them. I can't thank you Photographer Clifford Crittenden enough for being there on the day we honored our dad!

I am very thankful to Arlington Media for the beautiful video made for my sister's military burial at Arlington National Cemetery on July 8, 2019. It was very professionally prepared and I have received numerous compliments from the individuals I have shared it with.The videographer, although always out of sight, was able to capture vantage points that I would have been unable to capture and was able to capture the sounds so much clearer than I could have done.For me personally, it was a blessing to be there, in the moment, and not trying to observe the service through the lens of a camera. For that I am so grateful.Once again, thank you from our entire family.

I am so glad I chose to have both video and photos of my husband's Arlington service done by Arlington media. I was rather distracted that day, most of it is a blur. I vaguely remember Cliff introducing himself when I arrived at Arlington National Cemetery (my apologies to Cliff for likely seeming as a "deer in the headlights"). Thank goodness Cliff and his staff took care of everything regarding the recording of the day without me having to be involved. The video and photos are beautiful and captured both the solemnity and celebration we felt that day. I am so thankful to have this lasting tribute to my husband for myself, our children, family, and friends.

Arlington Media captured all the special moments from my father’s service in February 2019. I wanted to be completely present in the events of the service, and not trying to take pictures myself. Once I received the pictures and video, there was even more than I could have possibly captured in pictures myself. I highly recommend their service!

Arlington Media did a superb job filming and taping my husband's full honors burial on August 10, 2018. They were exceptional at capturing the event while never invading the space of the mourners. The final work product was absolutely lovely. When I asked, they also gave me needed information on a great florist and a pub/ restaurant that was equally great, for everyone to congregate after the burial. We are not from the DC area and so having this connection was invaluable. I would highly recommend Arlington Media to anyone who wants to record and preserve the experience in Arlington National Cemetery. I would do it the same way, again.

It is my pleasure to be writing a recommendation for Clifford Crittenden and as the owner of Arlington Media, who videoed the Full Honors funeral of my husband at Arlington National Cemetery in July, 2018.
Living in Alabama, it was difficult to find someone in Virginia to remember this sorrowful time in my life. After doing some research on the internet and based on the samples I viewed, I decided to call and then hire Clifford. He was pleasant, courteous, responsive to my emotional condition and explained his entire process of recording the ceremony. He promised that he would not be seen – and the only reason I knew he was there was because he introduced himself before the service and reassured me that all would be fine.
Based on the results, I can definitely say that Clifford is an exceptionally talented and unique videographer. He was professional during this sorrowful time in my life. and the resulting video will always be a peaceful remembrance for me.
Clifford and his team are an invaluable asset for those who want to memorialize a special moment in one’s life. It is my pleasure and without any hesitation, I give Arlington Media my highest recommendation.

Arlington Media photographed and filmed the joint funeral service for my husband's parents in March, 2017. My father-in-law, a Commander in the Navy during WWII, was buried with full military honors. If you have never experienced the majesty of this service and ceremony, it is breathtaking and can be quite overwhelming in the moment. It was one of the most moving and emotional and patriotic experiences I've ever had.
Hiring Arlington Media to capture the event and all of the beautiful details that went by so quickly was an essential decision. Cliff and his team are excellent, artistic and accurate photographers/videographers and the result was outstanding. We met Cliff in the parking lot of the chapel beforehand. We were not even aware of the filming in the chapel, and are so glad that Cliff captured a an important eulogy that highlighted my father-law's heroic efforts to relocate Holocaust survivors to Israel after the war. I noticed the photographer as we walked behind the caisson only briefly. Cliff and the team are extremely discreet.
Here is an example why having Arlington capture the day was so important: One of the moving elements of the day was a group of middle school kids, obviously on a school trip with parents and teachers, who witnessed the procession. We could see this group from far away as we walked down the hill to the grave. When we got close, it was so touching to see the kids, hands over hearts and baseball caps off, honoring my father-in-law. I'm sure they will never forget their visit to Arlington. But, my husband does not even remember seeing them! You really cannot absorb all of the details, and the beauty of the day.
Thank you, Cliff and Arlington Media. Our photos and film are treasures.

Cliff and the Arlington Media staff were highly professional in arranging and performing photography and video services for our dad's Arlington National Cemetery funeral this past October. The results of the live streaming video were a little disappointing but understandably it was live. In the end after Arlington Media's professional editing the photos, video and photo album all came out beautifully. We are very pleased with the final results after editing was done. These photos and video will remain family treasures for us and generations to come. Thank you Cliff and staff for for these gifts and insuring things were completed to our full satisfaction. Highly recommended!

We had Clifford complete a video of our mom's service, it is a nice memory and, especially in this time of the pandemic, we were able to share it with family and friends. I did expect a little more views and information about the cemetery and would have like to see that however it is a wonderful memento.

I asked that the burial service of my husband be filmed because I couldn't be there and I wanted to feel as if I was there. I was kind of disappointed to see that more of the people who attended were not shown. I would have liked to know so I could thank them for attending his burial. The service was nice except for the constant noise from planes going over.. I know that it was not your fault but I did want to touch on that because it made it hard to hear what the Chaplain was saying.
