I didn’t cry at my wedding, but I did cry when I saw A.J.’s video of our wedding. A.J. Traveled to Greece with us for our wedding and he managed to capture my favorite place on earth with my favorite people. He documented the magic of the day along with the natural beauty of the island my husband’s family is from, and I will forever be grateful to have this memory that reminds me of such an amazing day.

Hi, my name is Sean, and I love creating films. Being able to capture a day, an event, or a special moment for people to relive it, is why I do what I love, and I love what I do. Seeing how happy my clients are, inspire me to pursue more wedding films and making others feel just as joyful as these lovebirds. Because I enjoyed creating their love story, I know I want to create more films that other couples, like you, will cherish, remembering those special moments and little quirks you may otherwise forget as the years go by.

Sean was super easy to work with, he made us feel comfortable right away. He always emailed us back in a timely manner and listened to my very specific vision. He delivered a high quality wedding video we will cherish forever! Our family loved it and all commented what great quality it was! He was professional and worked well with our photographers. I would definitely hire him again!

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!!!

Michael is an accomplished band leader and producer in a broad range of styles – as one student put it, ‘The Indiana Jones of the music world.’ He has been performing jazz and pop professionally 25 years with the likes of Branford Marsalis, Eric Clapton, Clark Terry, Brian Culbertson, an Kat Parsons Group to name a few. For the past decade, Michael's group, UpBeat, has performed in clubs, corporate galas, weddings, social events, and festivals throughout Chicago land – UpBeat has performed for numerous celebrities / exceptional events, including Jennifer Aniston, Mayor Richard M. Daley, Vince Vaughn, and recently opened for Lionel Richie.

Michael & UpBeat were EXACTLY what we needed for our wedding. Michael set up multiple phone calls with us before the wedding to go over details and understand what we wanted for our day. The band set up rehearsals just to practice our exact set list. We decided on Piano & Violin for the ceremony, with additional Piano for cocktail hour. The full band played a wonderful and creative 3 hour set during our reception. Upbeat set up all of our sound equipment and did a comprehensive sound check early that day. They even had a sound tech on their staff. Upbeat customized our wedding to our exact requests. They ensured to perfect our precessional, recessional, and prelude music. We requested contemporary love songs in which they rocked!! Our cocktail hour was perfect and the guests were complementing how talented the musicians were. Michael was our emcee for the nights events and ensured to follow my timeline to a T. He checked in multiple times with our wedding planner, as well as me and my husband. The 3-hour reception was full of energy, talent, and craftsmanship. Upbeat performed multiple medleys allowing songs to flow seamlessly into each other. The vocalists were top tier and were able to sing a wide variety of genres. The instrumentalists all played a critical role in the feel of the party! I 100% recommend adding the horn to your band! It made every song feel rich & full. Shout out to Reid Spears, piano & vocals, THE TALENT IS POURING OUT OF HIM. If you're thinking about a live band, DO IT. This band is worth every penny!!! We will forever be a fan of UpBeat! Maddy & Sean

Your wedding is one of the most important days of your life as you walk down the aisle to say yes to forever. You have spent months or even years planning for it. Perfecting every detail. Making it uniquely yours. The ultimate celebration of your love. Our passion is to capture those moments in time on film so you can relive the greatest love story ever told… Yours.

If you are debating on hiring Something New Media to capture your day this is your sign to STOP and hire them immediately!!! During my wedding planning process, I read so many reviews and opinions on if hiring a videographer for your wedding is “worth it” and it is!! Something New Media did such an amazing job from start to finish! I absolutely LOVE pictures, videos and anything that will help me relive the big moments in my life. I came across Something New Media on Instagram and I knew I needed to hire them after my first interaction. I reached out to find out if they were available on my wedding date and then they sent me some sample work. I am not lying when I say this was the first and ONLY wedding video that I watched in its entirety. I didn’t even know these people and I was getting so emotional. I felt like I did know the couple, their love story and that I was at their wedding. It was incredible, and, in that moment, I reached back to find out the steps to reserve them. They were great with communication during the entire process, they made changes to arrival times to ensure I got everything I paid for, they were so personable the days of. Ovi and Tyler captured so many amazing moments and they were so fun. They did not interfere with any of our moments and just made sure to capture all the small details…. Then we received our videos. HIRE THESE PEOPLE!!!! Our videos are INCREDIBLE! As the bride I will tell you there are so many moments from the day that I did not get to see or just simply was too overwhelmed to soak in. The entire ceremony video allowed me to see my husband walking his grandma and my mom down the aisle. It allowed me to see my bridal party dancing the aisle and it allowed me to relive the moments in our vows when we both had the most genuine and excited expressions. And then there is the highlight film, I want to literally put this video on repeat and watch it nonstop for the rest of my life. If you have the chance to hire Something New Media, again do not hesitate. You will not regret it.

In the weeks leading up to the wedding, we did experience a hiccup with the booking that made me a little nervous about how things would unfold. That said, Jordyn stepped in and handled the situation with care. She coordinated directly with our vendors to ensure everything ran smoothly on the day of the event, and I really appreciated that effort. Her involvement helped ease my nerves and allowed me to enjoy the day. Overall, the space was a great fit, and I would absolutely recommend it to others planning a small or medium-sized event.

I'm an artist by nature. I love photography, but I also love to paint. Growing up I could color for hours. I come from one of those families where everyone is passionate. Things are really loud and your mom asks you when you've eaten last when you walk in the door. If you come from one of these families, you know exactly what I mean. When my son was born I picked up a camera and embarked on a challenge to learn as much as I could about digital photography. I love to be with people and I love to make people feel good about themselves. We should all have a hype girl and I'd love to be yours.

Sarah not only takes amazing photos, she has an easygoing personality that puts you at ease on your wedding day. Her organizational skills make the day run smoothly and keeps the stress away!

Video Reflections

  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Serves Des Plaines, IL

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.

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 don’t have enough kind words to express how great Sofiia was to work with. She truly has a gift for seeing the creative vision, telling stories, and finding pure magic without feeling like you’re acting. My husband was nervous about feeling like the moments we filmed being inauthentic or staged, but Sofiia works hard to let you be and capture real emotions. She’s passionate, so creative, and was someone we genuinely loved working with.

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.

Travis and his crew have done an AMAZING job at Stonegate Manor. Our couples have been over the moon with the pictures and videos and we are always proud to showcase their work on our website and social media. They stay on the cutting edge of new technology. Simply wonderful.

  • Beauty professional
  • Serves Des Plaines, IL

A love for the creative and performing arts, three years of collegiate studio art training, and a BA in Dance Performance lead to Joey’s obsession with makeup artistry. His approach to makeup application is similar to a painter and his canvas - working in layers, stroke by stroke, to find a beautiful end result. Beauty comes in all forms: a simple flick of eyeliner, an enhanced complexion, or full-on glam. It is Joey’s passion to identify the “perfect” look for the occasion and work with his clients to create a truly beautiful result that leaves them feeling their best.

I hired Joey for myself and bridesmaids for my wedding. He and his assistant Gisele did an incredible job and ensured everyone looked and felt beautiful. Can’t recommend enough!
