"I have worked with Michael Scalise on numerous projects over the years. He is so creative and seems to understand the scope of the project with little direction. He has produced event promotion reels, documentaries, and program highlight videos for our Center. He is patient, fun, and a great person to work with. I highly recommend him for your next video production project."

Past Executive Director, Michelle's Place

"Michael captured the photos of our event with professionalism and precision. He took initiative to reach out to us through the Temecula Valley Chamber of Commerce event directory. He performs good work at a fair price. We have already hired him for our next event."

"We recently had the pleasure of working with Black Tie Productions for a major ribbon-cutting ceremony with the Temecula Valley Chamber of Commerce, and the experience was outstanding. Michael Scalise arrived early, came well-prepared, and conducted himself with the utmost professionalism throughout the event. His talent behind the camera beautifully captured an important moment for our business community."

Brooke Nunn
CEO, Temecula Valley Chamber of Commerce

"We hired Michael after having the same videographer for years. We were a little timid about having someone new come on board but he nailed it! He became one of us immediatly and made the most perfect videos capturing our event! So much so that we already hired him for the next two years! He's stuck with us! Highly recommend!"

"I cannot say enough about the incredible work that Michael Scalise and Black Tie Productions did in creating a beautiful and heartfelt celebration of life video. From the very beginning, Michael was incredibly communicative, making sure every detail was just right. He was not only professional but also deeply sensitive to the occasion, understanding how much this tribute meant to me and my family."

"Michael did an excellent job with my headshots. Super professional, very kind, and easy to work with. He took his time to make sure everything looked right and made the whole process comfortable. Somehow he even managed to make me look good in the photos… which might be his most impressive skill! Highly recommend him if you’re looking for quality headshots and a great experience."

Kristi Piatkowski
Development Director, Mission Hope

"Michael Scalise of Black Tie Productions was the official videographer for Reality Rally for 12 years from the very beginning. He was excellent to work with and produced exactly what I had in mind, producing outstanding videos that attracted Reality Stars, sponsors, participants, donors and volunteers resulting in the overall event visibility and success. His interviews were all done with an eye for his end result and his storytelling documentaries will be a long lasting tribute and promotion for Michelle's Place, our town and all involved. I highly recommend him for any video needs."
