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.

I wasn't born with a camera in hand, but I was born with a passion for telling stories. I started college with dreams of becoming a young adult writer, but a screenwriting seminar taught me that video can tell a story more powerful than words alone ever could. Now, instead of dreaming up fictional love stories, I get to document real ones.

Monday through Friday we shoot food, ads, TV, live events, products videos, documentaries, narrative films, corporate stuff and more. But when the weekend rolls around, we shoot weddings. Our appreciation for directing and videography is rivaled by none. Whether you want something candid and simple or a more elaborately planned wedding video, we'll be there- caffeinated and ready to go! We can now boast that 6 of Chicago’s best videographers are on the Whole Heart Video associate roster. To keep quality high (and to make sure we have back up shooters), we limit the number of weddings accepted to 3 per day.

Travis and Emily’s relationship started around the same time that Bella Tiamo began back in 2011. A few years and a wedding later Emily went from being the tag along on a wedding day to a crucial part of the Bella Tiamo Team. A husband and wife team has a special dynamic that is hard to find in a solo shooter, or 2 videographers who have never worked together before. We are never duplicating each others shots or getting in the way of each other. We are working as a well oiled team complimenting each others strengths.

Born and raised in a city near Chicago, I spent my childhood behind the lens of a camera. While taking film classes in school I became known for my innovative style and courage. I instantly fell in love with telling other people’s stories through my films. Capturing incredible wedding stories ignites my passion for love, film and creativity. Nothing is more important to me than telling your story exactly the way you want it to be told.

We're all about telling epic love stories – no cookie-cutter stuff here. Based in Miami but up for an adventure anywhere, we're not your average wedding videographers. Think of us as your partners in memory-making. We'll be there laughing, dancing, and capturing every crazy, beautiful moment. Our mission is simple: make your love shine. No rules, no boredom. Your love story is one-of-a-kind, and that's how we approach filming it. We're not just about the big scenes; we're into the little details, the stolen glances, the goofy grins – everything that makes your love yours.

Being in the wedding film industry over sixteen years, I'm eager to help couples bring their dreams to life. I have no hesitation traveling for couples who know I'm the perfect fit for their wedding. My work resonates with who it's made for- and I keep that audience in mind.

Your Wedding Day Film is a Florida-based wedding videography and photography company created to help couples capture the true emotion of their special day. My name is Vanessa, and storytelling is at the heart of everything I do; whether it’s through video, photo, or content tailored for social media. From helping you plan, to filming and photographing your wedding, to delivering your finished films and galleries within 4–6 weeks, we’re with you every step of the way. When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me spending time with my family, friends, or taking our four-year-old German Shepherd mix to the dog beach.

Create timeless, emotional story-driven Love Story Film that never gets old. You are going to have your own personal love story film that YOU are the hero and watch it every wine night / anniversary day with your loved one so you can transport right back to that day, reminisce about your beautiful memories with loved ones and remind how beautiful your love story is.

I’ve spent over a decade painting love stories in motion—capturing not just moments, but the emotional truth behind them. My approach is rooted in trust and collaboration. I take the time to truly connect with each couple because I’ve found that the most meaningful films are created when my clients feel seen, heard, and understood. If you’re looking for a cinematic experience that lingers—where shots breathe, and your story is told with intentionality and emotional depth—I’d be honored to explore what we can create together. I don’t just show up with a camera; I show up ready to partner with you in crafting something heartfelt and lasting.

You and your partner have a story to preserve and share, and our films do exactly that. And we make filming on your wedding day totally effortless. You'll feel at ease and have fun through the whole process. You can be yourselves, and trust the final film will beautifully encapsulate your celebration. And of course, that's only the beginning - your choice to partner with us on creating a film means you'll be able to relive your wedding day over and over, and share your love story with generations to come.

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!
