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.

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.

I cant say enough good things about our experience with Toast! Julianna was so communicative and fantastic with making sure that the memories of our day were captured perfectly! It's incredible that Toast has photographers nationwide that they contract with! Planning a destination -Oregon wedding from New York was made so much easier because of Julianna and her team! The photographer and videographer captured images and footage that were above and beyond what we ever dreamed! Plus, they were both beyond talented and great at directing us to make sure we got tge best images! Our photographer had a great idea to have me twirl and throw my dress, and it was one of the most beautiful images captured. Also, they were open to fun things we wanted to try. The editing process was seamless, and the product they produced was absolutely phenomenal. Like I said, highly recommend!

Flower and oak were absolutely amazing. They showed up extremely early for our event and we had the highest premium package ordered for the day. We had a couple specific shoot ideas for THE GROOMSMEN and the minute I walked in the front door. I was greeted by both videographers With all kinds of cool camera gear and they told us exactly what to do and there was no time wasted. I highly recommend flower and oak to anyone looking at getting married soon. The one thing I don’t regret about our wedding day is using them because they were so great.

I’m Victor, a Chicago wedding photographer and filmmaker who understands how quickly the day moves. 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.

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!

  • Serves Goreville, IL

Paul Hairston is an award winning and nation-wide wedding, documentary and commercial filmmaker for over 13 years. He loves anything and everything about human storytelling and creating impact through the medium of film. He strives to capture your special day with earnestness, trust and top shelf visuals. Throughout his career he has worked to blend vérité filmmaking with a production value those stories and emotions deserve, while never getting in your way. Providing painterly and elegant coverage with an unobtrusive but attentive presence that documents every unique detail is Paul’s goal with every film.

Paul and his assistant were absolutely amazing. I actually found him when googling videographers in my area and LOVED all his work as I could tell he took true pride in his films and caught all the little details of the weddings he videoed. When setting up a meeting, I realized he actually lived 4 hours away from me... BUT that didn't stop him! He was willing to travel with his assistant for a VERY cheap price and was there the whole time. He actually asked ME if he could come earlier to ensure he got all the little details on camera and capture every minute of us getting ready, etc. He was quick to respond throughout the whole planning process prior to the big day as well. Paul was in school for cinematography at the time which is very evident in his work as you can tell that film is his true passion in life through his work. We had no idea he was even there and he stayed until the very end (little did I know) to ensure he captured everything on film. As most brides (and grooms) do, we put a LOT of planning into our big days and a lot of thought into every single little detail. Of course your own wedding day is such a blur you never even get to appreciate all your hard work... but thanks to Paul, I am able to see every little part of the wedding from the place settings to all the little signs we had everywhere. He did an amazing job capturing every moment and I love my highlight film. Thanks to him, I get to witness and relive what was my dream wedding over and over again... I knew I wanted to hire him when his highlight films of complete strangers brought me to tears! He is now videoing my brother's wedding and a family friends... So Yes.... I HIGHLY recommend him :)"

We had almost decided against hiring a videographer because the rates we were finding elsewhere were far beyond our budget. After discovering Milestone Pro, we realized we could have a professionally produced wedding film without overspending. The final video exceeded every expectation. Watching it brought back all the emotions of the day and allowed us to relive so many special moments. Their team captured the atmosphere, energy, and meaningful details beautifully. Throughout the event, they worked so discreetly that we barely noticed they were filming. The quality of their work, combined with their affordability and professionalism, makes them an outstanding choice for anyone looking for a wedding videographer in St. Louis. We couldn't be happier with the results.

The heart and hands behind the films are John and Katie Lore, a husband and wife team with a shared passion for capturing stories. John is the artist behind the lens, with a lifelong love for film that began when he was a little boy. His passion and degree in Fine Arts, fuel his understanding of film making. Behind the scenes is Katie, a former kindergarten teacher with a heart for connecting with people. She brings with her warmth and organizational skills. Today, we combine our strengths to create wedding films that are not only stunning but also deeply personal. Every couple has a unique story, and it’s our joy and privilege to tell it.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the very beginning, John Lore with Lumiere Wedding Films set a tone of professionalism, artistry, and genuine care that never wavered. Working with him is always one of the best decisions our couples make for their wedding day. John doesn’t just document moments, he captures the emotion, the movement, the soul of the day. Every shot feels intentional, every edit full of life. When our couples have received their film, they were overwhelmed (in the best way possible). It isn’t just a video, it is a cinematic keepsake that brings our couples back to the laughter, the tears, the joy, and the sacredness of their vows. His eye for detail is unmatched, his presence is calming and unobtrusive, and his passion for storytelling shines through in every frame. If you're looking for someone who will honor your day with excellence and elevate it with beauty, John is your guy. Five stars don’t seem like enough.
