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.

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.

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!

Hey! My name is David Gass and I'm super pumped that you're here checking out my work. If you're anything like most of the couples I work with, you have little to no experience in front of the camera. I'd also bet you're looking for a photographer/videographer that can catch the candid moments of your day and genuinely document the special memories at your mountainous wedding. I look forward to working with you and your partner soon.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the very beginning, David went above and beyond - meeting with me every few weeks to help scout the perfect location, coordinate timing, and make sure every detail aligned with the vision I had for the proposal. His excitement and passion were clear from day one, and it made the entire experience feel personal and intentional. We ended up proposing in the mountains, and the photos he captured are absolutely epic. David didn’t just take beautiful pictures - he managed to preserve the raw emotion and joy of that moment, not just for me and my fiancée, but for everyone who was there. He delivered a sneak peek of our photos a few days later, and we received the full gallery of edited photos just three weeks later. Every image exceeded our expectations. David was prompt, professional, and genuinely excited to be part of the moment. I can't recommend David highly enough!

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!

We had the most amazing experience hiring Oakhouse Wedding Films. We were first introduced to them when I stood up in a friends wedding and we met Taylor. We then attended a wedding and Taylor was at the event. We saw the results of both weddings and knew Oakhouse was the right vendor for us. Everyone at Oakhouse, Nick, Matt and more were so great and communicative throughout the whole process leading up to the wedding day. Our videographer was Taylor and he is absolutely amazing!! We had the best time with him and it was like you didn't even know he was there. My photographer and Taylor worked together like a dream and I feel like they captured all of the important moments for us. Taylor and my husband really hit it off and the groomsmen were raving about how great he was, (yes! the groomsmen were into it!!). We got our video in lightening speed and I couldn't have asked for someone better for our wedding day and would recommend Oakhouse and Taylor any day.

Hello! My name is Brandon Wilson, together with my wife Rosaida; we own and run Brandon Wilson Films. We are a husband and wife team, we specialize in cinematic docuseries-style wedding videos. We love the real emotions and events of a wedding day. Our approach is a little different to filming weddings, we mic up more than just the couple, preferably some of the bridal party and some of the parents. This allows us to pull from real conversations, and constantly show the wedding how it unfolds.

My fiancé and i are shy people, but Brandon made us feel so comfortable during our engagement session. We laughed during the entire session, i would recommend them to anyone looking for a videographer. Once we saw our video we posted it immediately to share with our loved one. Absolutely amazing!
