I looked at SO MANY wedding videos and they were all so similar and cookie cutter. They were lacking something but I couldn’t put my finger on it. THEN I FOUND JIMMY SHIN. I watched his videos and found myself sobbing at strangers videos! He made me feel like I knew the bride and groom after just 7 minutes. He's so good! Jimmy will take your wedding video and turn it into the most beautiful story. The video he made for us just so beautifully captured my husband and I's day! It's a video i'll cherish for the rest of my life. I can't wait for our kids to be able to watch it. UGH, seriously hire this man and you won't regret it. Best wedding money we spent. https://www.youtube.com/watch?viVAKZzODr6E

We are absolutely thrilled with the film Ephraim created for us and can't wait to watch it over and over again, both now and in the years to come. After our first viewing, we said to each other, "This is AMAZING! This is exactly why we chose Ephraim!" Ephraim masterfully wove together our vows, speeches, dances, and every other special moment—from the silly to the serious—into one perfectly crafted film. It truly exceeded our expectations, and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect memento to cherish forever. Working with Ephraim was a wonderful experience. His dedication, energy, and hard work are evident in every frame of our film, and we are incredibly grateful for his efforts. We wholeheartedly recommend Ephraim to anyone in need of a talented and dedicated videographer. Thank you again, Ephraim, for capturing our memories so beautifully.

I became indulged in the story-telling of my wedding couples. Being surrounded by the excitement, sometimes nervous couples, and their loving families and friends made the filming such a rush. Then to have the honor to edit a film where their personalities and love shine through is the greatest privilege. I want to take them on a journey back in time to the most epic day where they laugh and cry with all their family and friends. I make films that last the ages. I love to think about how my couples might show their kids or even grandkids someday.

Trevor of Maloch media goes big when it comes to wedding filmmaking. He will do anything to get the shot, and uses all the newest and best equipment to make sure your day captured beautifully. He works seamlessly with other vendors so that the day goes smoothly. Highly recommend!

Our approach to wedding filmmaking is simple- deliver the most sincere, organic recollection of the day by acting as unnoticeably as possible. By eliminating the pressures of being filmed, our couples are able to enjoy each moment of their day and be truly present in the experience, providing us with an authentic and emotional collection of frames. Weddings are our passion and we enjoy being able to assist with planning, coordinating and timeline creation throughout the months leading up to your big day. We’re with you every step of the way and are dedicated to creating the best possible version of your love story.

Rhys was great to work with!! He provided so much guidance leading up to the wedding day, going over my timeline and making recommendations based on how long he's seen things take. He also provides a list of suggested do's and dont's that you wouldn't realize have an impact on the video - it was so helpful!! Before the wedding he also has a prep call to go over all the details and any notes/requests we have for the videos (vibe we're looking for, any cinematic requests, song requests, etc.) He was another great presence to have the day of! We haven't gotten the video back yet but right after our wedding we got an email that lists out all the steps they take throughout video production. We've since gotten emails every time our video has moved to the next step. The communication from Rhys since we booked has been so incredible!

Hi, I am Emily! I'm happy that you've landed on my page. I specialize in covering videography as well as photography. I have been shooting weddings since 2013. I fell in love with watching people be in love! You can't find a better gig. I went on to receive my Bachelor of Arts in 2019.

When I'm not shooting weddings, I am doing real estate photography, binge watching Bob's Burgers and Saturday Night Live, or most likely eating something delicious. ;)

We couldn't have been happier to hire Emily for our videography. Like many other 2020 couples, we downsized our event to be an intimate ceremony. We last minute decided to hire a videographer, and luckily for us Emily was available! Our day was pretty chaotic with a lot of moving pieces, and she went with the flow with patience and kindness. By the end of the night, we felt like she had been a friend forever. The video is absolute perfection, and we are so thankful she saved the day last minute and gave us an impressive video to share with our family and friends who could not be in attendance. If we could give more than 5 stars on every category, we would!

I was born and raised in Ukraine where I studied at a law school. When I moved to the USA in 2016, I dramatically switched my career path from a lawyer to a digital artist. I got a degree in Media Arts and Filmmaking and started shooting dance, fashion, music, and became a wedding videographer located in Chicago.

What an experience! You can stop searching now! This is the best wedding film crew. We spent a LOT of time searching thoroughly everything about weddings, planning, and vendors. Then it was time for the videographer and we got some recommendations from our friends. We fell in love with Sofiia’s beautiful style and watched a few of her works. She doesn’t simply film a wedding - she creates a story, she connects dots, and she sings it with her own words. It’s amazing. Help yourself - hire Sofiia as your wedding videographer!

Run, don’t walk and book a Fine Art Wedding Film as your wedding videographers. I stumbled upon Fine Art Wedding Film and once I saw their videos I could not get their amazing work out of my head. When the time came to book a videographer, I already knew who I was going to book. Desmond and his team are simply amazing and their work is phenomenal! We recently received our wedding video (which was way earlier than we were expecting it) and I do not have words for it. It was beyond wonderful! We can not thank them enough for it, the cinematography was amazing and it brought tears to my eyes. They were able to capture the most important parts of the wedding. We had a Catholic Mass and the way they paired the reading to the video was gorgeous and perfect (I love that I have my grandma’s reading on video). This will surely be on repeat at our house for years to come !(and it is already on a daily repeat at our parents’ houses).
