Hi, I'm Jesse, an award-winning, international wedding filmmaker. I love to tell stories in a strong and original way. My work today is all about STORYTELLING and the PEOPLE that help move your story along. I have been part of so many incredibly personal moments, memories, laughs, tears, and emotions over the past decade. I understand the magnitude of what it is I do. My passion is telling your unique story and I'd love to be the first and maybe only professional you hire to document your life!

I am truly so thankful for Jesse and his team. His talent in catching and documenting special moments on your wedding day is beyond what you can anticipate. The art of taking those special moments and forming a video with music and voice recordings from the ceremony and speeches is not something just anyone can do. I have to say, our wedding videos are BEYOND. The more we watch them, the more thankful we are to have hired Jesse and his team. Besides the fact that Jesse was so wonderful to work with from our first phone call to the day of our wedding, he is so kind and has amazing attention to detail. He caught everything on our video "wishlist" and gave us some of the best tips before the wedding. He asked for our vows, speeches, and ceremony script ahead of time and then incorporated video shots with special words as they are played. All around, incredible! I'd hire him again in a heartbeat and recommend him to no end!

Welcome. You believe your love makes life worth living, and that's worth celebrating again and again. I do too. I am passionate about creating an experience that goes far beyond your wedding day. Your film is one of the most visual ways to relive your wedding. It is the gatekeeper of memories, the holder of moments. The gift to yourselves (and your descendants) to treasure your love story forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I got married in Monterey, CA in May 2024 and we chose Junior Films as our videographer for our wedding. We could not be happier with our decision to work with Arturo on our wedding day! Like many couples, we initially thought we didn't need a videographer because we hired a photographer. However, after further discussion, we decided to explore adding a videographer to our special day. After meeting with Arturo from Junior Films and seeing his work, we knew that we wanted to hire him to film our wedding. This decision was truly one of the best decisions that we made during our wedding planning process! I lost track of how many times I said throughout the weekend - “I am so happy we decided to hire Art as our videographer because now we have this on film!” In our meetings leading up to the wedding, Arturo made sure he knew exactly what we wanted to capture and who we wanted to film the most on our big day.He is very dedicated to his work and will go the extra mile to get the necessary footage to best document the magic of the weekend events. He also worked closely with the DJ, photographer, venue coordinator & wedding planner to put our vision to video. On the wedding day, I was very impressed by his attention to detail while filming these once in a lifetime moments. Our wedding truly went by so fast - and even though we tried to be as present as possible - we couldn’t be everywhere at once - so we still missed major moments amongst our guests that happened on our big day. Luckily these moments were caught on film! Plus, as we were actively living through all of the raw emotions in real time on our wedding day - it is reassuring and invaluable to know that we have all of those raw emotions, reactions, and voices of loved ones beautifully captured on film thanks to Junior Films! We look forward to rewatching this footage for years to come!

We hired Brendan Reiss to film our wedding. Brendan was easy to communicate with and was able to answer all of our questions. The way Brendan filmed our wedding was truly magical. One unique thing Brendan did was filming aerial views of our wedding venue with his drone. He used top of the line equipment to film our wedding and didn’t miss any important shots. The highlight video and long video Brendan provided us was breathtaking. The videos were high quality, and the music chosen truly matched our wedding. We want to say thank you Brendan for your thoughtfulness, and flexibility working with us. The videos you made for us will be something that we cherish forever.

We are a husband and wife videography team. Dominic received his MFA in Film Directing from the Academy of Art in San Francisco and has over 10 years of videography experience. We got married on January 6, 2018 and quickly realized we had made a big mistake not hiring a wedding videographer to capture our day. We decided to start our own video production business and provide quality wedding videography services to make sure other couples have a wedding film to help them remember all the special moments of their most special day. We are passionate about filmmaking and can't wait to hear more about your love story!

Words cannot describe how thankful we are to Emily and Dominic for their incredible work. The videos they delivered were the most amazing and magical reminders of our special day and we are so excited to be able to relive those moments again and again. From start to finish - booking to the day of to after the wedding, they were both a dream to work with, making everything so easy and effortless. Video was something we weren't sure we could afford and we felt like Lost Generation Picturs offered packages that were priced well for all the content we would receive and wow, did we get more than we could have imagined, it was the BEST decision we made during our planning process. We would HIGHLY recommend working with them if you get the chance!!! Thank you again!!

That’s why you need a great photographer & videographer that can capture those moments in a way that really brings them alive. We believe in capturing those candid moments as they happen on the day itself, not just at set up or posed shots. We are trained professionals with years of experience who know how to get those amazing shots without being intrusive or ruining any surprises!

Alex's photography is nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I discovered his work on social media, I knew he was the perfect choice to capture our moments. His ability to effortlessly blend into our family dynamic made the entire experience feel natural and comfortable. Alex's warmth, flexibility, and genuine care translated into stunning photographs that exceeded our expectations. It was more than just a photoshoot; it was a memorable experience shared with a talented artist who felt like a long-lost friend. I wholeheartedly recommend Alex to anyone seeking not just beautiful photos, but an unforgettable journey through the lens of a true professional.

- I love running, dogs, donuts, yoga pants, Parks + Rec, Sherlock Holmes and a ton of other random stuff. - I am originally from San Diego, CA so adjusting to Chicago winters has been ROUGH. - My husband and I love to travel and find new adventures together, but also really enjoy a night in having absolutely no plans. I personally have always been in love with stories. Reading them, listening to them and finally telling them. There is something so incredible about how good stories can draw out deep emotion. THAT is what I love.

Anchored films is hands down the best of the best in wedding videography. Katie and her team go above and beyond from start to finish, making the entire process easy and seamless for you (something we all need when it comes to wedding planning). Katie is truly an amazing person, with a great heart to serve others and make them feel comfortable when the nerves are at their peak on your wedding day. From her fun energy and enthusiasm, to her immense attention to detail, and overall professionalism in which she approaches her job, she will ensure that you ultimately receive exactly what you’re looking for in wedding video 10/10 times. She strives to give you a product that truly reflects you and your spouse. She told our story and our day far better than we could have ever imagined (Ephesians 3:20) and we are beyond grateful we chose her. She is so dedicated and committed to serving her clients and making sure they are thrilled and overjoyed with their wedding film. I promise you will get endless compliments from family and friends (if that matters to you) once they see the level of professionalism, care, and love that pours out of an Anchored Films wedding video. You will have this for the rest of your life and be able to continually reflect and celebrate the commitment and covenant you made to each other. Don't you want to be proud of the story that your wedding film will tell? I know we did. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else, genuinely. Thanks for everything Anchored Films :)

We cannot recommend Stacy highly enough. During the planning process, she provided fun and helpful suggestions and helped to keep us on track. We checked in with her regularly to make sure that preparations were moving along apace. On the day itself, everything went *incredibly* smoothly, and we were able to relax and enjoy the company of our guests, dance, eat and drink, and simply have a wonderful time -- because Stacy knew all the vendors and handled everything and anything that might have otherwise come our way. We loved working with her!

Kindly Weddings is a team of professional filmmakers led by Austin Stoecklein. We have filmed weddings + commercial projects in just about every part of the world, for companies like Apple and Visa. Since 2010 we have been pushing the boundaries of what a wedding film can be, and our work has been seen by millions. Our goal is to make unique films, not generic wedding films.

We were on the fence about getting a wedding video at all. Most of the videos out there are cheesy and just not our style. Why spend the money? Then, we found Kindly. And wow, I'm so happy about it. During our first call with Austin, it was clear that he "gets it." He has incredible taste, and is excited about cool, interesting weddings with a lot of heart. As I described the vision for our wedding — an ode to old school Los Angeles taking place at the iconic Sunset Tower & Chateau Marmont hotels — we could see Austin's creative wheels turning. We decided to use a Super 8 camera to incorporate in the film, which added that grainy, vintage, home-video aesthetic to the final product. Austin also had the idea for us to send videos we recorded ourselves of our relationship and the time leading up to the wedding to incorporate in the film — making it not only a wedding video, but a story of our love. Here's one final anecdote to capture what made working with Kindly so spectacular. My husband and I both share the same favorite moment of the wedding: it was the end of the night, we were on the dance floor surrounded by all of our favorite people in the world, and Robyn's song, "Dancing On My Own" was playing. We were jumping up and down and spinning, and everywhere we looked, there was someone we loved. Forever that song will remind us of that moment. Well, when Austin sent us the final film, he had selected Robyn's "Dancing On My Own" to punctuate the final minutes. It took our breath away. We didn't ask for this song, or tell him this was our favorite moment. But he was there, not only observing behind the camera, but also experiencing the wedding with us, and he just *knew*. He knew the magic of that moment, and knew to capture it in the film. This is what you want in a wedding cinematographer. Someone who gets it: who gets the magic, who gets the moments that matter, who gets the story, who gets the aesthetic, and who turns it into the film you that almost 2 years later, you still watch every Saturday morning. Yep, we — two people who weren't sure we wanted to invest in a wedding video at all — still watch ours every Saturday morning because it's that special. Absolutely could not recommend Kindly more highly. Here's our video if you want to check it out: https://vimeo.com/374696258

HEY! I'M ASHLEY! Aka, Your Professional third wheel! I am so happy you dropped by! I am a uber bubbly, warm hearted, person who loves to order 3 drinks at Dutch Bros and say its for other people but really its just for me. When I am not spending my lifes savings at Dutch Bros, I am professionally following peeps in love and photographing their stories. I am a lover of true crime and murder podcasts! (But I mean who isnt! I just cant help it!) FUN FACT: I speak switzerdütsch, aka a German slang. My mom is originally from Switzerland and my dad from Jamaica, so you know I am always hungry for adventures (and new places to binge eat at).

Ashley is one of the most caring photographers I’ve ever had. She really went above and beyond even before I booked her. She sent out a timeline of how my session was going to go and even send me suggestions of what to wear. Then came the session, she made me really comfortable in my own skin and made me giggle so much with her awesome humor. I was really worried about how I would look, but when I saw the photos I was so happy I almost cried! She got all my best angles and captured my true personality in those photos!! If you want someone that goes above and beyond, takes care of your needs, and is FUN to work with and captures your best angles, SHE IS THE ONE!!!
