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!

I absolutely love what I do! It gives me great joy and humility to know what I create will live on for generations to come. The smiles, the dancing, the special moments, will only happen once. Never again will the same people be in the same room for the same reason. It is my responsibility to take the stress of you, and document this amazing occasion.

Isaac is the BEST! I have worked with him on a few weddings and projects for my wedding planning business and my clients and I absolutely love referring him! Isaac is not only communicative and easy to work with, he is incredibly talented and passionate about what he does. He makes everyone feel at ease and my couples are always so blown away by his work.

Better 1/2 started in 2011 in the San Francisco Bay Area. In 2019, I relocated to Chicago. I've filmed about 30 weddings for couples with a range of venues and guest counts. What's consistent is my style, which is personal and beautiful. I tell each couple's wedding story in a tailor-cut video, highlighting the big moments and spotlighting the small ones.

Working with Jenn was as much of a dream as our wedding. I told Jenn I wanted a docu-style video - something with a beginning, middle and end. She exceeded expectations by using our first dance and allllll the practices we had as the main focal point. We are so happy with our video. Our family is so happy with the video. It perfectly encapsulates the hard work we put into hosting a wedding, but the immense love we felt from our guests and for one another. Affordable, kind, and accommodating, Jenn is the best new wedding videographer here in Chicago. Highly recommend Jenn for your special day. You will not regret it.

Having grown up on a farm in Central Illinois, I am a filmmaker living in Chicago. I began doing wedding videography in 2017 while living in Bend, Oregon. I love intimate, small-scale weddings and elopements.

Hiring Jacob is a NO BRAINER! I cannot say enough great things about or experience! 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!

I grew-up in Belém, the state of Pará, in Brazil. When I explain where Belém is, I always say it is next to the Amazon. I also say what a beautiful city it is. After Belém I moved to Rio, where I realized how much passion I have for photography. It wasn't until I came to Chicago that I could be myself and do what I love. I studied video before photography and started doing short films. Today, I am a photographer and videographer with a great heart, who wants to capture memories. This is the way I express myself. That is Izabella West -- happy and in love with the world!

One of the best decisions we made was to use Izabella and West Films to capture our wedding. She had done my sister's wedding a couple of years prior and my family loved her immediately and she did such an incredible job. Izabella is friendly, professional, and an extremely gifted videographer. She exceeded our wildest dreams and we cannot stop watching our wedding rehearsal dinner highlight videos on repeat :) Izabella and her team captured the most special moments and we couldn't be happier with the quality of the end products. Izabella worked in the background throughout our day but still felt like part of the family. Take this as your sign to connect with Izabella and West Films. You will not be disappointed!!

So… After 2019, I decided that 2020 was going to be the year. It was going to be the breakout year for weddings and events. Filming every other weekend, capturing all the precious moments that every videographer cries over in their editing room about. I prepared my box of tissues at hand, (100 boxes in fact). All the beautiful moments in 2020, I couldn’t wait! Well that never happened! But here we are in 2022! It’s time to get the dress, get the photographer, walk down the isle and have the wedding of your dreams. My name is Andrew McCarthy, I would love to film your wedding :)

My husband and I were looking for videographers for our wedding when we met Andrew. In addition to Andrew, we met with another small business owner who had been in the industry for 10 years and a large, well established business. To be honest, we were on the fence about having a videographer due to the skyrocketing cost of our wedding however, after watching some Wedding videos we decided that it was important to us. As I mentioned, we met with a few different business owners. I usually make my decisions based on reviews and previous work. Andrew provided all of that to us but the other businesses we were talking to obviously had more in their portfolios since they have been around for some time. We decided to move forward with Andrew because of the gut feeling that we got from him. He was so extremely kind, attentive, flexible, determined and we could tell that he would do an amazing job with capturing our wedding! The day of our wedding, it rained and our day of coordinator turned out to be more hands off than we had anticipated. This basically left a huge gap in our wedding. Andrew was 1 of 3 of my wedding vendors who stepped in and really helped make sure that I didn't worry about anything other than enjoying my wedding. He absolutely did more than what his job was for that day (like getting the bride water and directing guests etc.). At the end of the night, we even had 2 additional hours left per our contract so Andrew came to our afterparty to capture some additional footage. If you're considering Andrew for your event, take my word and book him!!! He has a heart of gold and will treat your wedding like it's his own sister's/brother's wedding. We are so glad to have met Andrew and know that he will be so successful!!!

In 2005 Tim started capturing wedding stories and founded Video Reflections. In 2018 his sons Trevor and Aaron caught his passion. Trevor, the lead videographer and editor, captures the imagination of couples with his out-of-the-box creativity. Aaron, assistant videographer and graduate of Columbia College Film School, is a visionary filmmaker. His portfolio includes several short films, documentaries and viral stop motion animations. In 2019 Abby joined the family team and now assists Tim with his recent addition of wedding photography.

I was looking very hard for a videographer that met our budget and delivered a high quality product. I spent more time searching for a videographer than any other wedding vendor because I was not happy with the majority of videographers I found on the internet. Video Reflections was one of only a few I contacted because I was impressed with the quality and artistry of their work. When we met Tim and Trevor, we were very happy with their professionalism and caring. They rolled with our unconventional plans, meeting us again a week before the wedding to make sure they understood our plans so they could capture them. We ended up buying the package that included a highlight video and a documentary and we are so happy with our decision. We were very budget conscious with our wedding but we knew that we wanted to prioritize the photography and videography so that we had the priceless memories. They are very reasonably priced compared to other videographers, but I would not have spent the money for a sub-par videographer if I did not like their portfolio. They did a wonderful job and were very calm and supportive the day of our wedding-very easy to work with. I loved seeing the parts of the day I missed and remembering parts that had flown by in the rush of it all, which, sadly, was a lot. My highest recommendation.

Josh was professional and very easy to contact. He made me feel at ease when my daughter decided she wanted a videographer 2-3 weeks before her wedding.

My husband and I had the absolute best experience working with Trey and team. Trey truly took the time to learn about us as individuals, who we are together, what mattered to us most, and our vision for our wedding day. He is personable and professional and will truly feel like a friend that you are excited to see when the big day comes. Our video turned out better than we could’ve ever imagined and it is such a treasure to have such an elegantly captured representation of our day to look back on. It has also been the perfect way to share our experience with family and friends who weren’t able to make it. Watching the days events unfold through the perspective of a guest is such a cool experience and had us falling in love with the day all over again. Working with Trey was a flawless and stress free experience and took the pressure off us because he really was able to lead our team through the events seamlessly. We are so happy with the finished products down to being obsessed with the song choices he picked. He took all our feedback and ideas into consideration and just made our video spectacular. He is truly an artist in videography and we cannot recommend working with him enough!

Brent is considered one of the top wedding cinematographers based out of the Northeastern USA. He frequently travels the globe, documenting weddings for couples who deserve the best of the best. After growing up in Central Jersey, Brent chose to move down to Nashville for college and then shortly after graduation, officially founded 550Park out of New York City. He is a passionate tennis player, chef, and world adventurer.

I feel like I could write for hours about our experience with Brent. From the moment I first spoke with Brent I knew I had found exactly what I was looking for. As much as I loved our wedding and it truly was the most amazing weekend of our lives, sometimes when so many things are going on you aren't able to be apart of everything. The way Brent made himself available for most of our weekend to video not just our ceremony and our reception but our rehearsal dinner, the property, testimonies from our friends and family and just overall capturing the whole vibe of our wedding. Moments. That is what we wanted for this weekend. Was for everyone to have a least one moment where they felt nothing but love. I am beyond happy Brent and Cam were there to capture our special weekend and for any of my friends getting married I will recommend them over and over again. Thank you so so much Brent!

I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I'm also a musician and I help craft most of the music in the wedding films I create. I love working with couples that have unique personalities and styles. My work resonates the most with who it's made for, and I always keep that audience in mind.

I was referred to Birch Fields by my cousin (who used Birch Fields for her wedding) 2 weeks before my June 2020 Covid wedding. We decided last minute to have the wedding even if it was just going to be immediate family. Because no extended family or friends were allowed at the time we wanted a way to record the day as if they were there. I had posted I was looking for someone to shoot on a VHS camcorder and film the whole wedding start to finish with no breaks just like old family videos we had growing up. Steven not only was up for the challenge, but spent his whole day capturing every detail of our wedding. We got copies of both 4k and VHS which is so special and cool. We were so impressed and absolutely loved Steven that we have since used him for my Sister-In-Laws baby shower and my Father-In-Laws 70s birthday party. Birch Fields is like family now!
