Reviews
Violaine Etienne
I thoroughly enjoyed my experience working with Rivertree. John and his entire crew establish themselves as a valuable asset to any team. They are honest, dependable, and diligent. John is a problem solver who is able to address obstacles that come along with strategy and confidence. His knowledge of the industry and expertise in its intricacies was a huge advantage and contributed greatly to the success of our shoot. I confidently recommend John and Rivertree for any production services needs in Florida.

John and his team at Rivertree were an absolute dream to have as a service company for the prep and execution of our 3 day shoot in Grand Cayman. Our content was hugely ambitious and much of the success in its execution was down to their collaboration, talent, diligence, and know-how.

John and his brilliant team were tireless in their effort and critical to our success in filming the most ambitious episodes in our series history. Their extensive knowledge and connections in the Caribbean helped us navigate a very large, complex unscripted shoot with relative ease. I highly recommend Rivertree for all your production service needs.
