Oakhouse is collective of filmmakers and videographers based in Rockford, Illinois, that are obsessed with making and telling great cinematic stories through video. What better way to tell one of the most important stories of your life than a film of your big day!

I can’t recommend them enough! Neil our videographer was coincidently the videographer at a wedding I was in prior to mine. I told him there that I hoped my videographer would be as great as he was and I was so lucky I got him! He helped make the day fun and exciting and kept the energy so positive. He makes everyone feel so special. Nick was so helpful and so quick with communication.

He worked with me on planning a timeline of the day and asking for specific details we made sure we wanted to be filmed. Day of he was earlier than expected which was great! He was friendly and super enthusiastic about the work he was doing. He went out of his way to make sure he captured the most special moments of our wedding and went above and beyond.

Steve was amazing to work with. He makes everything so personal and takes the time to get to you know his clients to create a film that genuinely shows who you are as a couple. I have never been filmed before, and I was nervous about it... but I didn't even notice he was filming half the time because he made us so confrontable. Not only did he film the us, but he had a drone to capture the whole atmosphere of our weekend. He was so professional and FUN to be around and captured the important relationships that you would have wanted in your forever wedding film. A HUGE THANK YOU FOR helping keep the memory alive for the rest of our lives. I have had the film now for a few days and seriously need to stop watching it but i cant...its beautiful.

  • Serves Apple River, 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!

Gordon was so nice to work with! He also was always checking on me throughout the day. the photographers of course will lead the way throughout the day and Gordon made sure he was capturing more natural things. We received all our footage so quickly! Gordon also cares about giving the best product to his clients and that’s something I really appreciated about him. The product was amazing and so flawless. Our short clip had all the perfect words from our ceremony and the video was like what happened the whole day! I loved it!!

Hey guys, we are a collective that has come together to better serve our community. They say “if you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” Benjamin and Kelsey met at a coffee house when Kelsey was a cute girl with a camera in hand. Needless to say, they discovered that they had a mutual passion for more than just photography. We are chasers of our next adventure. Whether that be on a windy mountaintop, or in a deep valley for intimate quite moments. We are obsessed with capturing images of our couples that truly resonate with them.

If you are of the opinion that the photographer is one of the most important roles in your wedding, you are looking in the right place. Ben of Boxcar was exactly what I wanted in a photographer: easy to work with, flexible, personable, adventurous, respectful, responsive, passionate and generous. In addition to being an all-around great guy, Ben also knows how to use a camera. I'm not sure I am qualified to try and classify his style, but I would say it has a certain photo-journalist quality to it. A quality that conveys realism, but is also very artistic. Long and short of it is, I highly recommend this guy. You will not be disappointed.

My name is Gage Horne, the owner of Gage Horne Studios. I started my company in 2019 (officially) but have been doing video work starting at the age of 11. It started as gaming videos uploaded to YouTube, to shooting professional dance films in college, to starting my own Video Production Service. I found true passion in my work when I realized how important wedding videos are. I had already shot 100+ films before my wedding but realized as a consumer how valuable it is. I love what I do and finding intriguing/interesting ways to display those pieces is what keeps me creative and constantly making my films better.
