You are going to spend thousands of dollars to make your day the dream day you have always wanted. While video is currently seen and a luxury add on, I believe it is just as important as hiring a photographer. Video provides you with the opportunity to see how you moved and connected with your loved ones. The emotion, the gestures, the facial expressions, how your grandma walked, all the little and big things of actual movement that you can't capture in a photo.

Imagine 5, 10, 15, or 20 years from now regretting you didn't hire a videogrpaher and wishing that you had. I realize this is an added expense to your day but please don't make short term decisions based on your current state to then regret it in the long run.

I am located in Crystal Lake, IL but I am often traveling to Chicago, MKE, and Madison. I have also been called to Las Vegas and Florida — I am always looking to explore more places!

Yes I travel! Travel is included as long at your wedding/elopement takes place within the Chicago, Rockford, Milwaukee radius. Anything outside of that with acquire a travel fee. This fee will vary depending on where you would like me to travel to! Sometimes I require flight/hotel accommodations depending on the circumstances. This is something we can discuss more!

You bet! If yon't see a collection that has what you're looking for, let's work together to tailor a package that fits your needs.

While I wish I could use Justin Bieber's "Holy" song to your wedding film, paying to license that song legally or illegally would cause me to go bankrupt. I use a program called Musicbed. They do over limited cover songs to poplar artist. We can work together to select the music so it is to your liking! This is one of the first steps once you've booked!

You will recived your final edited film in approximately 12 weeks post your event. Creating a timeless cinematic master piece is like trying to put together a 1000 piece puzzle without knowing what the final picture is supposed to look like. It is a creative process that takes time and can't be rushed.

Your video(s) will be sent via private online gallery link where you can view, share and download your film and footage. If you upgrade to add a luxe USB drive, all footage will be loaded to the drive and sent to your house. I highly recommend keeping multiple copies of your video(s)!

I do supply you with raw footage if you so choose to add it to your package. This raw footage is straight out of camera with my custom preset overlaid. There will be a required contract prior to releasing any raw footage stating that you are aware that the raw footage may have people walk in front of the camera, be shaky, or have fuzzy audio times etc. due to the fact that there are no cuts or edits made in this footage.

I get it, uncontrollable things come up, life happens. I am happy to accommodate one reschedule date. We would work together to confirm a new date. After that you may be subject to booking my current rate of the rebooking time. If you need to cancel our time completely, while there is a non-refundable retainer, you would be released from the remainder of your contracted amount upon receiving your signed cancelation contract.
