“Truly a white-glove service! We decided to use Press Record Co for our wedding after deciding against a traditional videographer, and looking back, it was one of the best decisions we made. What makes Press Record Co so special is that it allowed us to experience our wedding day through the eyes of our friends and family. The candid moments, genuine reactions, and little memories that might have otherwise gone unnoticed ended up being some of our favorite parts of the final video. When we received our edited film, we were blown away. It perfectly captured the joy, emotion, and energy of the day in a way that felt authentic to us. We've already watched it multiple times and know it will be something we treasure for years to come.

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.

“Working with Chicago Love Films was an absolute delight while coordinating this wedding. From the very beginning, their communication was clear, timely, and thoughtful, making the entire planning process smooth and stress-free for everyone involved. The final video exceeded all expectations — the craftsmanship and attention to detail are truly impressive. Throughout the wedding day, the team was punctual, highly organized, and incredibly efficient, all while blending seamlessly into the background and never interrupting the flow of the celebration.
