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.

Awarded Best of Zola
I had not considered a videographer in our initial wedding planning but changed my mind after seeing Trey's portfolio. Most wedding videos I had seen looked cliched but Trey's videos were lively and unique. Trey spent time getting to know us and took our style into consideration. The whole process was professional and individualized to us and the result was exactly what we hoped for. The wedding day was such a blur that we're so glad to have this curated, beautiful keepsake. We would absolutely recommend!

I looked at SO MANY wedding videos and they were all so similar and cookie cutter. They were lacking something but I couldn’t put my finger on it. THEN I FOUND JIMMY SHIN.

Jimmy will take your wedding video and turn it into the most beautiful story. The video he made for us just so beautifully captured my husband and I's day!

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.

In my opinion, a videographer is a MUST for your wedding day. Elmwood Forest was a preferred vendor on many lists we received— and now we know why. The day of the wedding, they were so professional and kind. They were patient with us and our big family. They captured speeches, vows, and the best dance moves. We have 9 beautiful minutes to watch our favorite day of our lives OVER AND OVER AND OVER again. The best videographer out there!!

Steve was such a pleasure to work with from start to finish! He was invested in what was important to us to capture while also doing what he does best and getting us incredible footage we never would have thought to get. He did all of this so seamlessly--he was so calm throughout the whole wedding day. He worked really well with our photographer and was a great team player. We felt so supported by Steve, and never felt like it was "just another wedding" to him. We felt like old friends by the end of the night. Our video turned out better than I could have imagined, and that is coming from someone who grew up watching beautiful YouTube videos of strangers' weddings and just wishing I could have the same one day. Well, Steve exceeded my high expectations! He is such an artist and is so creative. Our video is like a fairytale and we can't stop watching it. You want the best of the best entrusted with the task of capturing your special day, and Steve is just that!

Still Do was so helpful and professional from the very first meeting. We booked for just videography services. Last week, our videographer was unexpectedly not available, but Still Do Media handled this situation very carefully and calmly, and they had a standby videographer in the backup team. Matt, our backup videographer, is amazing! He stepped in a few days before the wedding with professionalism and positive energy. He captured every detail in perfect style. I just had a little bad experience with how they deliver raw footage unprofessionally. Folders and clips are messed up and disorganized. But our experience with Still Do Media is incredible. We are always thankful for making our wedding such a memorable and joyful experience!

I love coffee. I never leave home without it. I’m easy going. I love to chill. I’m a huge sports fan and I love watching Skip Bayless and others argue on Fox. Basketball was my first love and even in my thirties I still daydream about playing in the NBA. As a teenager, while most of my peers were listening to 2Pac and Biggie, I preferred Marvin Gaye, Al Green and The Temptations. I’ve been told that I have an old soul. At the end of the day I love life, I love my job and my customers always come first.

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.

What an experience! You can stop searching now! This is the best wedding film crew. We spent a LOT of time searching thoroughly everything about weddings, planning, and vendors. Then it was time for the videographer and we got some recommendations from our friends. We fell in love with Sofiia’s beautiful style and watched a few of her works. She doesn’t simply film a wedding - she creates a story, she connects dots, and she sings it with her own words. It’s amazing. Help yourself - hire Sofiia as your wedding videographer!

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 was simply amazing! After searching for weeks for the perfect videographer, we finally found Trevor Maloch. We wanted someone that we not only connected with, but also someone who was fun and pleasant to work with and that’s exactly what Trevor was for us. His pricing and packages were within our price range. Maloch Media provided us exactly what we were looking for in our wedding video and that was to make us feel like we were reliving the biggest day of our lives. We highly recommend Maloch Media.

The adventurous duo behind A New Odyssey. Life's most beautiful stories aren’t just in the big moments — they’re in the quiet, unexpected ones that catch you off guard. We live for capturing the raw, unfiltered energy of your love, whether it’s a windswept kiss at sunset or a spontaneous laugh shared when no one’s watching. Every moment, big or small, deserves to be remembered because the people in them are what matter most. For us, being a part of your journey means celebrating each fleeting second as if it were our own.

Working with A New Odyssey — the incredible duo Chantal and Harry — was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, nearly two years before our big day, their professionalism and communication stood out. Every message, question, and detail was handled with care and clarity, and they made us feel supported and confident throughout the entire planning process. When our wedding weekend finally arrived, they didn’t just show up to capture moments — they became a part of the experience. From our rooftop welcome party to the wedding day itself, Chantal and Harry brought such warmth, artistry, and ease. They documented every laugh, every hug, and every little in-between moment that we’ll cherish forever. All of the details I (the bride) carefully planned, they made sure to capture with immaculate detail (some of the details I forgot to tell them about and they still found them and captured them)! Their calm energy made us (and our families) feel completely at ease, even during the most emotional and fast-moving parts of the day. The photos and video they delivered are nothing short of breathtaking. Every frame feels intentional and full of life — the joy, the emotion, the love, all perfectly preserved. Watching our wedding film and scrolling through our gallery truly brought us back to that weekend; it feels like reliving it all over again. Our friends and family were so eager to share their amazing work. We can confidently say A New Odyssey gave us the best weekend of our lives, not only by capturing it so flawlessly but by enhancing it through their presence, professionalism, and passion for what they do. We will forever be grateful to Chantal and Harry for the timeless memories they created. If you’re looking for a photography and videography team that genuinely cares about their couples, goes above and beyond, and delivers art you’ll treasure for a lifetime — look no further than A New Odyssey.

The quality of their work is incredible, we laughed and cried watching our final video and all of our friends have gotten emotional after seeing it too.

Our approach to wedding filmmaking is simple- deliver the most sincere, organic recollection of the day by acting as unnoticeably as possible. By eliminating the pressures of being filmed, our couples are able to enjoy each moment of their day and be truly present in the experience, providing us with an authentic and emotional collection of frames. Weddings are our passion and we enjoy being able to assist with planning, coordinating and timeline creation throughout the months leading up to your big day. We’re with you every step of the way and are dedicated to creating the best possible version of your love story.

Rhys was great to work with!! He provided so much guidance leading up to the wedding day, going over my timeline and making recommendations based on how long he's seen things take. He also provides a list of suggested do's and dont's that you wouldn't realize have an impact on the video - it was so helpful!! Before the wedding he also has a prep call to go over all the details and any notes/requests we have for the videos (vibe we're looking for, any cinematic requests, song requests, etc.) He was another great presence to have the day of! We haven't gotten the video back yet but right after our wedding we got an email that lists out all the steps they take throughout video production. We've since gotten emails every time our video has moved to the next step. The communication from Rhys since we booked has been so incredible!

I am Angela; owner, lead photographer, and wedding film director. My husband, Zac, is my favorite teammate and covers lead (gimbal) videography, or 2nd shooting (photography). We've been photographing and filming weddings together since 2010! He has a storytelling perspective, while I love details and intimacy. The tension between the two creates such a romantic vibe! When you need a larger team, we pull in our favorite colleagues - professionals in their own right - to work with us for the day. We have very close peer-vendor relationships with a solid group of amazing artists we work with regularly.

We can’t say enough about Angela and her team. Her professionalism, creativity and expertise made the picture taking and video of our wedding very special. It was very clear that they have extensive experience and we found ourselves being very comfortable working with them to capture the moments on our special day. Her follow-up and results truly exceeded our expectations and their fee was very reasonable. I should note that we had a Covid wedding and they managed to all of the concerns and special situations which we appreciated. Angela and her team will always be remembered as being part of our “family” and in sharing in our day. We highly recommend Almost Fantasy. If we could give more than a 5 star rating, we would!

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.

We had such an excellent experience with Paul on our wedding day! He was so communicative leading up to the day, as well as the actual wedding day. He was friendly, professional, punctual and worked so well alongside our photographer for the day, filming all of the lovely moments we may have otherwise missed (dance floor, cocktail hour, etc). He also filmed our first look, which was one of the moments that I most wanted to have on film, and made it such a fun experience. We watch our video every year on our wedding anniversary (it's been almost 13 years!), and we look back so fondly on that day because of the sweet moments that Paul captured - and have also shown it to our kids, who love to watch it over and over again. We highly recommend Paul to also capture your wedding day!

I’m Holly (she/her), a 28-year-old wedding videographer based in Grand Rapids, MI. I love for telling stories. Being a wedding videographer is truly a fly on the wall experience and I get to let you truly relive that day through video. You'll see yourself hugging your mom/dad at the end of the aisle, your first kiss as you're pronounced married for the first time, hear your vows to each other. I cannot explain how grateful I am to give you those slices of time.

I'd give Holly 5 more stars if I could! Holly is the absolute BEST and handled all the videography for our wedding. It was a no-brainer for us to pick Holly for the gig, and the video she created captured our big day in the most magical way. Holly worked seamlessly with our photographer to capture all the right shots and portray our wedding day in a way that is true to who we are as a couple. Holly was very organized before our wedding day too, meeting with me multiple times to make sure she was capturing our vision perfectly. I could not recommend Holly more, she truly is the best of both worlds - the most amazing photographer and videographer and the nicest human!
