Awarded Best of Zola
We used Eivan's for both engagement photos and our wedding and couldn't be happier. They are wonderful about asking for your input and making sure you are truly happy with what you are getting. The photographers and videographers are the perfect mixture of professional and casual/friendly so that you are comfortable. We loved Rachael H for engagement photos, and Heather G (photo) and Dmytro L (video) for our wedding. They also actually care about you and the event itself, starting with asking you about your story. We got both a photographer, videographer, and engagement photos for a great bundle price, which was so helpful. Customer service is also fantastic about answering questions thoroughly and quickly. After booking and after the events, they send you information about what to expect, etc. I did quite a but of research into photography companies, and I would highly highly recommend Eivan's!

Ellyce Wedding Films

  • Serves Waukegan, IL

Hey there! I'm Fernando Ávila. I founded Ellyce Wedding Films while my wife and I were planning our wedding in 2019. By this point, I had already accumulated 15+ years of experience shooting wedding videos and my wife felt I could be a breath of fresh air for couples in a highly saturated market. She encouraged me and I founded the company in 2020. Because love inspires, love changes everything, I named my company after my love, Ebony Ellyce Ávila.

Ellyce Wedding Films was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding videography. From the very beginning, Fernando’s communication was clear, concise and professional, putting us at ease throughout the process. The quality of his work was truly amazing - delivered the final video in a timely manner and went above and beyond by providing us with all of the extra raw footage and clips neatly organized. The team at Ellyce Wedding Films contributed so much to making our special day feel even more special. We had a really great experience overall and would highly recommend them to any other couples planning their wedding.

The wilk media team always kills it. When I know that I’m going to be doing an event with Jack’s team it’s something I get excited about. I know that the team is always going to be on time and ready to go no matter how detailed the day is or how long it may be everyone is always on the same page. They managed to capture every special detail and moment of whatever event there part of, and you can feel all the emotions and all the energy in every shot and every video.

The Munaco team was incredibly fun to work with. More importantly, they captured our wedding day perfectly! They were professional and punctual, I didn't have to worry about a thing. They were able to capture every aspect of our day without getting in the way or holding things up. Everything felt natural and fun. Tom went above and beyond and sent us a picture from his high resolution film of us with our dogs (in tuxedos of course), because they wouldn't cooperate for the photographer. The raw footage will be fun to look back on in the future when we are old and gray, and the short video is perfect to share with family and friends. I highly recommend Tom and his team, they are top notch and worth the investment!

Hi! Courtney here (that's me on the left!). Shutter and Sound is the brainchild of renowned wedding videographer Ryan Geldermann. Ryan began his wedding videography career in 2010 in Los Angeles and quickly became recognized as one of the top videographers in the U.S.. After relocating to DC and still receiving countless inquiries from all corners of the country, Ryan decided to recruit and train a few talented friends so he could continue offering the quality wedding videography he’s known for in SoCal and eventually over 10 cities. Shutter and Sound is a very small group of filmmakers dedicated to turning your big day into a work of art.

I had the pleasure of working with Kaylee and Alexis as the planner for a wedding in South Georgia. These two are the dream video duo! Professional, fun, and incredibly talented. They captured the heart of the day so effortlessly and were a joy to have around. Their attention to detail and ability to preserve emotion through film is simply incredible. Highly recommend Shutter & Sound for any wedding! xoxo Samantha

Awarded Best of Zola
If you’re reading this review, you’re likely considering Steven and Wild Light Films as part of your big day. DO IT!! We were originally drawn to his unique style of work, music-video like approach, and storytelling ability in capturing the essence of people’s wedding days. Working with Steven was incredible and we can’t say enough about how much we loved his work. We booked him back in 2019 for our 2020 wedding, but of course with COVID we had to push it back a year. He was super flexible and accommodating, and we still figured out a plan to have video footage of an intimate ceremony in 2020, as well as the original plan for 2021. He did such an amazing job incorporating the two ceremonies together into one seamless video, which he turned around even quicker than we expected! Steven is a delight to work with—truly a genuinely kind person. His video editing craftsmanship and storytelling are compelling—rewatching our video + highlights felt like taking us right back to the memories and joy of our day. Do yourself and your future self a favor and get Steven to make your wedding video that you’ll cherish for years to come.

  • Serves Waukegan, IL

Any talented wedding videographer can create a 5-minute cinematic wedding film of your wedding but there's so much more to a wedding day than that. That is the most distinguishing feature about my work. While, I craft my videos around the love you share, the fun you have when it's just the two of you as well as the celebration with your family/guests is what makes each story so unique. So, as you'll notice in the examples, no two wedding videos are the same. I customize each wedding video I create to fit the couple I'm working with as well as the flow of the day, which will allow you to relive your day the way that it actually happened!

Awarded Best of Zola
Visual Reflection Video was one of the best wedding videographers I've ever worked with! Their communication was consistent, prompt and professional throughout the entire planning process. The quality of their work and value was truly amazing - they were so knowledgeable and went above and beyond to make our special day perfect. When our photographer no-showed, the videographer took the initiative to use his own camera to capture some getting ready photos of us, even though it wasn't in our contract. He really took control of the situation and made me not worry about a thing. Visual Reflection Video will exceed your expectations and deliver an incredible final product that you'll treasure forever!
