  • Serves Dowell, IL

We've been honored to create wedding films for hundreds of incredible couples. Each one of their stories is distinctive and we pride ourselves on creating moving films that artistically convey those love stories. We believe your wedding is not just about one day. It’s about your story leading up to that day and the stories that will come after. Our wedding videos bring your day to life – allowing the two of you to relive every laugh, every tear, and every moment that went by in a flash. Your loved ones will thank you for allowing your celebration to serve as a legacy of family history for generations to come.

https://vimeo.com/386274683 From the very beginning, booking and coordinating with our wedding videographers was simple and stress-free. They were incredibly prompt on the big day and kept everything moving smoothly without us ever feeling rushed. Their friendly, upbeat attitude made it easy to relax and enjoy every moment.
Because they knew the layout of Stambaugh so well, they anticipated shots and transitions perfectly.
That familiarity with the venue helped everything flow naturally throughout the day. They captured so many meaningful moments, both big and small, that we still cherish.
Our wedding was documented beautifully and authentically.
Even now, six years later, we find ourselves watching the footage on a regular basis. The video instantly brings us back to how that day felt. These guys truly helped us forever capture our wedding, and we can’t recommend them enough.

I'm Godfred Mensah, CEO of Gordino Photo and Video. I'm a passionate, creative, and aspiring artist. What drives my passion is the endless possibility of creating and documenting memorable moments with people.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I worked with Godfred for our wedding videography and we were quite literally BLOWN AWAY by his talent and the videos received. We have also received so much overwhelming feedback from family and friends who have seen our footage and are in awe of what we have received. From the beginning, working with Godfred was seamless, easy, and the communication was on point. He took the time to gather details about us that I see now were carefully used to capture things that were most important to us on our wedding day. From start to finish, the attention to detail was unmatched. Then, on our wedding day, Godfred was a dream to work with - he captured so many moments that felt like a whirlwind to us on the day-of, but when we got to watch them in the finished product, we got to re-live those moments, and that is truly invaluable. Being on camera can be nerve-wracking for some people, but he truly made us feel so comfortable and at-ease. I have re-watched the wedding trailer Godfred created for us no less than a million times since it's been delivered, and it is truly amazing. If you are on the fence about having videography at your wedding, I recommend doing it 100% so you can have these memories with you forever, and on top of that, work with Godfred at Gordino Photo and Video - you will be blown away.

I was getting 2–3k videographer quotes and honestly thought I’d have zero wedding footage… UNTIL I stumbled across this company. Affordable, simple, and truly so special. I now have memories of my parents, grandparents, and friends that I’ll treasure forever. I almost tried to DIY the whole thing, but realistically editing my own wedding footage would’ve taken me until our first anniversary. They made everything fun and effortless. Thank you SO much!

Having experienced weddings both behind the camera and as a groom, I guide couples with a calm, intentional approach so they can stay present and fully experience their day while their story is preserved authentically. I serve couples across Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, and destinations worldwide.

We had a wonderful destination wedding, and choosing Visil Photography turned out to be one of our best decisions. From the start, Victor helped us plan the timeline, ensuring the day felt smooth and unhurried. That really made a big difference. On the wedding day, it was never overwhelming or like a photo & video shoot, which was a huge relief for us. He guided us gently when needed but mostly kept things relaxed so we could just enjoy each other and soak in the moment. The videos and photos turned out absolutely stunning, and what surprised us the most was getting some lovely teasers just days after the wedding. Rewatching these amazing shots now feels like reliving the entire day exactly as it happened. I strongly recommend.

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.

Trevor of Maloch media goes big when it comes to wedding filmmaking. He will do anything to get the shot, and uses all the newest and best equipment to make sure your day captured beautifully. He works seamlessly with other vendors so that the day goes smoothly. Highly recommend!

A fun, candid alternative to traditional wedding videography.

I reached out to YouFilm after getting an advertisement on instagram. I got married in December 2024 and had the camcorder footage sitting on my computer for over a year. I had told myself I would put it together, but as a new mom and photography business owner, I decided it was time to outsource and I'm SO glad I did. Danielle was quick, responsive and took the footage I sent in and spliced the perfect highlight film of my wedding day. It was quick, easy, efficient and I have this wonderful keepsake forever!

We believe the best wedding films come from real connection — not stiff posing or overly staged moments. Our approach is calm, intentional, and story-driven, allowing couples to stay fully present while we quietly capture the atmosphere, energy, and meaningful moments of the day.

These videographers are outstanding! Words can't describe how much Lev and Nina made our wedding everything I wanted and more. Planning a wedding during covid has been very challenging and my venues and vendors have been cancelling left and right. I changed my wedding plans to 3 completely different location in Washington because of covid. Every time I had a hardship with the wedding and a change of plans, Nina and Lev have been the easiest and most understanding and compassionate individuals that helped me navigate the next steps because I did not want to post pone. They never once made me feel stressed with having things constantly change. Nina and Lev also put %150 into this project! I also would recommend adding the pre video because it gave me a chance to get to know Nina and Lev and become friends prior to the wedding so that I felt like they were good friends surrounded by us on our important day! Not just videographers!! There is a huge difference in their quality of video compared to any other I researched !
