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.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are thrilled with the stunning work of Shutter and Sound! Their highly talented videographers perfectly captured all the love and memories of our wedding day, and helped preserve them in film. Reliving the day by watching our highlight video brought us and our family to tears of joy. Every beautiful moment was captured with crystal-clear visuals from getting ready with our wedding attendants to our sparkler send off at the end of the night. The drone footage and details shots also perfectly blended with the rest of the film and helped set the stage for our perfect day. We can’t thank Shutter and Sound enough for the creativity and care they put into making our wedding video. I highly recommend!

Steve was the most perfect videographer from day one. Not only is he instrumental in his profession, but excels in prompt communication and compassion. If I had an issue, he had a solution. If I had a request, my demand was met. Due to scheduling conflicts, I had to have my rehearsal two days before my wedding. He drove something like 4 hours round trip to be there!! It was refreshing to see him talking/introducing himself to my family, seeing if they had any questions and just making sure we all felt comfortable and prepared for the big day. Steve was just as excited to be there as we were, and that means a lot. He wasn’t there just to take videos, he always went above and beyond for us in any way possible. He was there offering sage advice, making suggestions to improve flow and ensured he exceeded every expectation I had. Not only was he the perfect videographer up to the wedding and the day of, but he released our highlight 3 days after!! The rest of the videos were shipped to us by the time we were home from our honeymoon. The turnaround was impeccable, and the videos were stunning. His attention to the little things made re-watching the videos that much more exciting. The day goes by quickly, but I’m so thankful we had Steve there to capture every detail of my favorite day EVER. Thank you, Steve.

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.

It is so hard for me to write a review on Maloch Media, because it is so hard to put into words how exceptional they are. Trevor and his team are such a joy to be around on one of the most important days of your life. Trevor wasn't just there as a videographer but there as a friend. Throughout the whole day he was making sure that I was comfortable and had what I needed, and he was there to comfort me during the overwhelming times. He exceeded any expectations that I may have had. I truly cannot say enough great things about him and his work, it is truly exceptional. Every time that we watch our wedding video we are just overwhelmed with emotions, the video makes us feel like we are reliving the day all over again. He captured things that we don't even remember seeing on our wedding day. His work is impeccable. Maloch Media is the perfect addition to any wedding, they are worth every penny and more!

From the moment we hired him, and the whole process of receiving our video and raw footage afterwards... was smooth, easy, and we are eternally grateful! To this day, we always tell everyone how important it is to hire a videographer... the emotion is very different from photos. Live footage just helps you piece back together and process your perfect day! I had asked for a few different things, like having music playing through the whole video and snippets of both of our vows and Jacob way overdelivered and exceeded my expectations! Check out his Vimeo videos- they are unreal and will give you all the feels! Do not hesitate in hiring him. The video he creates will bring back all the best moments of your wedding day!

Awarded Best of Zola
As a wedding photographer, working with videographers often makes my job more difficult. In my experience, most videographers try to create moments by having people do things they would never normally do. They are often an obstacle for photographers to work around. Sometimes multiple videographers are working to get all the angles and they end up creating something of a spectacle of an event when folks are just trying to be natural and enjoy themselves. I had a hard time recommending videographers to my wedding couples... until I met Jenn. Jenn from Better Half Wedding Videography is the exception. She is an incredibly nice person, super respectful of people's time and space. She brings a calming presence to weddings and eases people's nervousness. Jenn is upfront, honest, and discreet. Her work is fun and natural. I am so bummed that she no longer lives in California. When people ask about videographers, I still recommend her. She is the best!

- 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 :)

You deserve a day filled with laughter and joy, surrounded by the people you love most and vendors who feel more like friends. When you hire Tony Mellinger, not only do you get a photographer who’s committed to capturing your day in a way that’s uniquely you. You also get a friend.

Tony is the best photographer you could ask for. He took care of helping us run the day on time, while never feeling rushed throughout the day. He remembered which moments and people were important to us and never seemed bothered when we asked him to take photos of something throughout the day or make one more stop for portraits. His second photographer Bryson was hilarious and working with both of them felt like we had family capturing our day. Our families were blown away by quality, amount, and diversity of the photos we received - and received so quickly! Don't look any further, you have to book Tony and his team!

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!

We’re Hungry Heart Films, a husband and wife wedding team in Chicago. We believe the best wedding films are unexpected and sincere, the kind of film that can transport you back to the feeling of that awesome day every time you watch it! Your vibe as a couple is unique and your wedding film should be too! We capture your day as it naturally unfolds, whether you're on the quiet side or throwing a rager to remember.

We're so happy we booked Brian and Rebecca of Hungry Heart!! They were both so open, honest, and answered all of questions before we even had a chance to ask them. We both don't love being in front of a camera and were worried about having both a photographer and videographer at the wedding, but Brian and Rebecca were so respectful of our space. They were the perfect combination of warm, approachable, and professional. Our final film is so beautiful, we've already watched it a million times. Thank you both so much!

Irv not only met but exceeded our expectations, and we couldn't be more grateful. He managed to capture the essence of our love story in a way that was uniquely "us."

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. I've really been able to put my education to work in regards to all things wedding films. 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. ;)

Awarded Best of Zola
I loved working with Emily!! She was soooo prepared, even when I wasn't! She had everything readily available, communication was quick and on point, and was able to direct our families with ease (and they're not easy haha)! Her turn around time to get my photos back was very quick and the quality was beautiful! Also, the amount of photos I got back was abundant!! Thank you Emily for capturing our day in the most beautiful way!!

A husband and wife photo video team based in Illinois, but say the word, and we are out of here! We absolutely love to travel and explore new places! So many of our clients have become our friends because We love getting to know you, and your family and friends and making everyone comfortable in front of the camera while capturing the real essence of you and everyone you love. We have been together for seventeen years, married for six. We truly are best friends who love working together and we think this shows in our work when shooting weddings together!

Ashley & Ryan are my favorite co-workers in this industry. Zero clarity issues, overall vibe is middle of the dance floor until we drop. The quality of video is more than expected when I see co-clients post. Their work in both areas is phenomenal and truly are sweethearts. Great communication with other photographers and the clients we work with. Highly recommend them as a team!

We are a husband-and-wife duo. We are here to capture every special moment of your day and wrap it all together to make a spectacular video you’ll cherish for years. We don’t believe in working with someone and not getting to know them. We also understand each bride has her own look, so our first step is getting to know YOU. We don’t want to simply show up, press record, and capture some pretty moments.

Elijah, Veronica, and their team were the videographers and photographers for our wedding in July. Not only were they reliable and easy to connect with BEFORE the date, but they also did an AMAZING job the day of! They were calm and it was clear that they had extensive experience with weddings and wedding parties. They listened to the ideas that myself and the groom wanted but also had amazing ideas for unique photos. We had a big wedding party, family and wedding guest list. They did a great job calmly but clearly directing family members and the wedding party when taking photos. They ensured that we were kept on schedule without putting pressure on us. Additionally, they were so much fun and went above and beyond to make our day special and memorable! When my bustle broke midway through the reception, Veronica was there right away to put it back together with a safety pin and hair tie! My guests kept on commenting about how fun they were and how on-top they seemed. We've only received our "sneak peak", but the photos are amazing so far! We're also looking forward to the videos, as we know that Elijah provided a unique perspective with personal details. I highly suggest having them for your wedding or any big event!
