I have always had a camera. Yes, I was that one kid in HS. Drove my mother's freckles up the wall. But HEY, here I am doing what I absolutely love. My heart, is that you should not have to take out a loan to pay for your wedding, you can if you want, you should not HAVE to. This is where I come in, I work with my bride's unique budget and curate packages unique to their needs. It's an absolute joy!

Courtney is just a lovely person and a pleasure to work with. From our first phone call, to the day of, to delievering our final film, she has put so much effort into really making us feel special. Originally, my wife was reluctant in the beginning bc of the added expense but she is so glad I talked her into it lol. We're really happy with how it turned out. So many memories that we'll get to relive. The video is absolutely beautiful and she put a lot effort, time, heart into it and we are so grateful.

Your loved ones will thank you for allowing your celebration to serve as a legacy of family history for generations to come.

Toast Weddings was the perfect choice for our wedding videography needs. From the very beginning, their team was responsive, compassionate, and highly professional in their communication. The quality of their work was excellent - they captured all the special, custom moments of our wedding day in Waialua, Hawaii with a keen eye for detail. As a couple who was 7 months pregnant with our first child at the time, the Toast Weddings team went above and beyond to cater to our unique situation and make sure our memories were beautifully preserved. Our videographer, Jason, had a truly creative vision that shone through in the final highlight video we received just 3 months after our wedding. We are beyond happy with our experience and the forever memories Toast Weddings has given us of our special day.

Wedding Weekender

  • Serves Saint Jacob, IL

Wedding Weekender is redefining wedding video with a more authentic, accessible way to capture your celebration. We send camcorders for your friends and family to film candid moments across your wedding weekend — from getting ready to the dance floor and everything in between. Afterward, our editing team shapes that footage into a thoughtful, nostalgic wedding video that feels true to your celebrations. We believe meaningful wedding video should feel personal, accessible, and rooted in real moments.

Simply OBSESSED. I worked with the Wedding Weekender for my bachelorette and wedding and both times was SO happy with the result. The team is prompt and communicative, answering our questions before and quick to provide our footage afterward. It was such a bonus to get all the raw footage in addition to the final video - my husband and I watched clips every night on our honeymoon, the best way to reminisce!! I loved having content that was from the POV of my guests, it makes you feel like you’re right back in the middle of things. Lastly, this was such a cost effective solution when you already have so many other things to worry about. Video was the first thing we cut from our budget, but with this we were able to have it all. I couldn’t recommend them more!!!

Mitchell Gaston Films

  • Serves Saint Jacob, IL

I’m Mitchell. For more than ten years, I’ve been filming weddings across Indiana for couples who don’t want to feel staged or overly directed. My approach is simple: stay present, stay out of the way, and capture the day as it actually felt. I focus on real moments — the nervous laugh, the quiet glance, the way your people sound when they cheer. Wedding films aren’t about trends. They’re about memory. Styles change. Moments don’t. Your wedding deserves to be held for generations.

As a wedding venue owners of The Wilds Wedding Venue in Bloomington, Indiana (www.thewildsvenue.com), we have had the unique opportunity to work alongside several amazing wedding industry vendors. In doing so, we’ve grown to greatly appreciate Mitchell Gaston Films. Their team is not only incredibly talented, but are also experienced, true professionals. If you're looking for an amazing videography experience and film, look no further!

Awarded Best of Zola
We are not joking when we say that we hired Saja from Mawaddah productions at 8:30 am on our wedding day after realizing that we almost made one of the biggest mistakes by not having a videographer. And this was definitely the BEST decision we made. We were amazed that Saja not only managed to travel two hours from Boston to Alstead New Hampshire with a last minute notice for the job, but also exceeded our expectations by capturing all these priceless and unforgettable moments with little to no preparation other than a timeline flyer a few hours beforehand. The cinematography is insane: she films so beautifully and candidly, and her attention to details is unparalleled. Through her art and vision, she was able to translate this day which needless to say, went by overwhelmingly fast, into such a beautiful beautiful endless everlasting memory that we can now forever replay. We ABSOLUTELY ADOREDDDD the teaser, the short wedding film and the feature film. We shared it with our entire families and friends and they are completely in love. The short wedding film is on constant repeat. We could not thank her and recommend her enough for her incredible work and talent.

We used Conner for our wedding on May 3, 2025. We were looking for a DJ and our photographer who had worked with him multiple times had recommended him…. Fast forward we found out he also did videography and we booked him for both- and we are so glad we did! He was so amazing, along with our photographer, they worked together so well and made sure we stayed on schedule and got all the moments captured we wanted. We almost didn’t go with videography but I’m so glad we decided to! He did such an amazing job with both the video and DJ. If we could do the day again, we would 100% have him again! He is so great to work with and so professional, I would recommend him to everyone! Thank you so much Conner for capturing the best day of our lives, the video was even better than we ever imagined. I hope we have the chance to work with you again in the future for another event. THANK YOU!!!!

Ah, perfect. Let’s ground it in that documentary indie feel. How about this: "I’m an independent documentary filmmaker, not just a wedding videographer. I tell your day as a quiet, unscripted story, like a cinematic journal. I don’t just follow a checklist; I observe, listen, and capture the authentic, fleeting moments that define you. With an indie spirit and a documentary lens, I turn your wedding into a timeless, raw, and beautifully told film." Does that hit that indie, storytelling mark?

As a fellow photographer, working alongside Anthony Hagen has been a truly remarkable experience. Anthony’s talent and dedication to his craft as a wedding videographer are evident in every project we’ve collaborated on. His ability to capture the essence and emotion of each moment is unparalleled, and his cinematic storytelling adds a magical touch to every wedding film. Anthony’s professionalism and easygoing nature make him a joy to work with, both for me and for our clients. He has an incredible eye for detail and a knack for being in the right place at the right time, ensuring that no precious moment goes unnoticed. The way he seamlessly blends into the background while capturing stunning footage is a testament to his skill and experience. I have seen firsthand how Anthony’s videography perfectly complements my photography, creating a cohesive and comprehensive visual narrative of the couple’s special day. The couples we’ve worked with have always been thrilled with the final results, and it’s clear that Anthony pours his heart into every project. I highly recommend Anthony Hagen to any couple looking for a talented, professional, and passionate wedding videographer. His work is truly exceptional, and I look forward to many more collaborations in the future.” Feel free to adjust or add any specific details that reflect your experience working w

Hi I’m Anthony! I’ve had a camera in my hands since I was 14 - what started as a teenage curiosity quickly grew into a lifelong passion for storytelling. Over the years, I’ve taught myself everything I know about filmmaking, and after filming my first wedding five years ago, I knew I had found my purpose. There’s something truly special about capturing the emotion, laughter, and small, unspoken moments that make a wedding day unforgettable. It’s an honor every single time I get to help couples preserve that feeling forever

Anthony captured ALL of our favorite moments during our wedding. He was very attentive and even helped guide us during certain moments when taking photos. I have recommended him to many friends and they all love him and his work!!
