Shutter and Sound

  • Videographer
  • Cinematic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Sanford, VA

Hi! Courtney here (that's me on the left!). Shutter and Sound is the brainchild of renowned wedding videographer Ryan Geldermann. Ryan began his wedding videography career in 2010 in Los Angeles and quickly became recognized as one of the top videographers in the U.S.. After relocating to DC and still receiving countless inquiries from all corners of the country, Ryan decided to recruit and train a few talented friends so he could continue offering the quality wedding videography he’s known for in SoCal and eventually over 10 cities. Shutter and Sound is a very small group of filmmakers dedicated to turning your big day into a work of art.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are thrilled with the stunning work of Shutter and Sound! Their highly talented videographers perfectly captured all the love and memories of our wedding day, and helped preserve them in film. Reliving the day by watching our highlight video brought us and our family to tears of joy. Every beautiful moment was captured with crystal-clear visuals from getting ready with our wedding attendants to our sparkler send off at the end of the night. The drone footage and details shots also perfectly blended with the rest of the film and helped set the stage for our perfect day. We can’t thank Shutter and Sound enough for the creativity and care they put into making our wedding video. I highly recommend!

Awarded Best of Zola
We booked John with Power Play Entertainment for our wedding and are extremely happy we did. We did a lot of research into DJs during the planning process as we knew it was an important role and could mean the difference between a fun wedding and an awkward one. From the moment we talked to John on our initial call, we knew he was the right fit for us. Aside from reception music, John covered music at the ceremony and cocktail hour, microphones and sound for us and our officiant, lighting for our reception, and a custom monogram that turned out amazing. We had a few special requests from our processional song, to passing out glow sticks and other favors, to having a surprise musical guest for the father daughter dance and all were managed great by John. John brought along Guy as his assistant/our second DJ and he was amazing as well. Both were ready to make sure we had everything we needed for the entire day and were professional with how they handled everything. At the end of the day, John kept everything going smoothly from the ceremony to the reception, he was a great emcee, played everything we wanted to hear, and most importantly he kept everyone dancing all night long. John does everything he can to ensure he can serve you how you want on your special day. I would highly recommend John, Guy, and Power Play Entertainment as a whole.

I hired Kelsey for my November 2024 wedding and she and her team exceeded my expectations. I honestly can't stop thinking about how good my hair and makeup looked the day of my wedding. I was admittedly nervous scheduling my trial because I realized the salon is not in Philly, but in Quakertown, which was about an hour drive. However, when I met Kelsey, I was reminded of why I booked in the first place - her personality is so warm and welcoming, funny, and puts you at ease immediately. I had the same exact reaction the morning of my wedding. I received hair and makeup services and my bridesmaids and MOB/MOG had their hair styled by Kelsey's associate. I thought everyone looked gorgeous and as this was one of the more expensive vendors I paid for myself, I did feel like my money was well spent. If you like full, full coverage with heavy foundation, etc I don't think this is the vendor for you. However, I think what Kelsey did with my makeup was even better because it looked so natural, but still looked like I was wearing the right amount of makeup. On top of my hair and makeup already looking perfect in my opinion, it happened to be snowing/freezing rain the day of my wedding and all of our photos were taken outside. My makeup did not budge! I touched up my lip gloss that was about it. My curls fell slightly because of the rain, but I was still very impressed my hairstyle lasted at all because of the weather. Overall, if you're on the fence about whether you'd like a professional to do your hair or makeup for your wedding, I would highly recommend someone like Kelsey who will make you feel like the most beautiful version of yourself and take the stress out of doing it yourself.

We rented the ‘Moody Romance’ suite and I purchased an add on of a custom bridal bouquet and boutonnière!

Brittany spent time talking to me so many times about questions I had and was incredibly patient! With the custom bouquet, I was able to upload inspiration photos and she NAILED it! The shipping process was so seamless as well. Brittany provided the tracking numbers and thorough instructions on receiving and then returning the flowers. I pride myself on getting ALL the flowers returned in record time (Brittany said) ;) All of our guests couldn’t believe the flowers were fake and everyone was raving about them!

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I were from out of town and hired Sean to photograph us at a Christmas gala at the place we got married. He was accommodating to last minute changes to make the most of the session and even went above and beyond to make it happen. Upon first impression, he was upbeat and had a vision. We were outside in sub 30 degree weather with fading evening light as well as low light inside a building and he was up for the challenge. We ended up with beautiful images in less than ideal conditions and that is what makes a great photographer. Sean has a sense of humor and an eye for that perfect photograph. He was fun to work with and his heart for people and creativity shows through. Thank you Sean for capturing this time in our lives.

DJ Ed was so accommodating in bringing our medieval fantasy cocktail hour to life. It perfectly set the mood I was looking for, and I was so happy that he was able to play our nontraditional music selections; thankfully he was able to use a Spotify playlist I had made just for cocktail hour. I received so many compliments on the music from my guests, and he kept them dancing for hours! But the one thing Ed did that I was most impressed with and touched by, was him picking the perfect next song when my husband was dancing with his daughter. Our photographer was able to get some beautiful photos of the moment, and we will be treasuring them for years. Without Ed's instincts and quick thinking, we wouldn't have those photos. I can't thank Ed enough, and I highly recommend you consider him for your DJing needs.

I love dancing (badly) at weddings so a priority for me when planning my own was that the dance floor be packed! MyDeeJay paired us with DJ Jeff who was great to work with. He was super understanding of our music indecisiveness and some last minute adjustments. Day of, he made sure he knew how to pronounce everyone's names and gave all the speakers a heads up so they weren't surprised when it was time for them to speak. He also took our Spotify playlist for the pre-ceremony/cocktail hour/dinner and broke it up and expanded it to fit the vibe for each of those. And, of course, he played music that kept people on the dance floor all night! Making sure we had the right DJ was a priority for me and I'm so relieved we ended up with Jeff!

I have followed Heather since she started and it has been so amazing watching her grow! Her and her team work so well to make your day special and made my visions come to life. I’m so happy she was able to capture so many memories of those closest to me. These photos will hang on my wall and be passed down for generations. I included just a few because they are truly something special!

Hi! My name is Madison, but you can call me Maddi. Raised in Maryland, I've lived in Colorado, South Dakota, and Germany. I now live in Philly with my husband and our two dogs. After so many moves, Philly really is the place that feels like home. I've always had a love for photography and I feel privileged to bring my passion to life. I want my photos to capture the genuine feeling of the moment and to reflect you and your story.

We are absolutely thrilled with our experience with Madison! From the moment we met, she was incredibly friendly and easy to talk to. She made the whole process feel so natural and enjoyable, which was so important on such a big day. Not only was she professional, but she went above and beyond in ways we didn’t expect. For example, when I was struggling to pin something to my dress, she immediately jumped in to help—something totally outside her job description, but she did it with a smile and made sure everything was perfect. It was those little thoughtful gestures that truly set her apart. And of course, the photos are nothing short of stunning! We absolutely love her style and the way she uses color. She made sure to capture every important moment, and we now have beautiful memories to cherish forever. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for not just a photographer, but someone who genuinely cares about making your day perfect.

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

I had an incredible experience with Grace as our photographer for a couples photoshoot turned surprise proposal! She was not only sweet but also incredibly creative, suggesting great poses and capturing beautiful moments. Grace took the time to understand our vision as a couple, and her thorough research showed in the stunning results. Plus, she went the extra mile by timing the sunrise for us, ensuring our pictures were absolutely perfect. I can't thank her enough for making our special day even more memorable with her talent and dedication. Highly recommend her for any photography needs!

Brooke and Dana were a pleasure to work with and ensured that our wedding ran smoothly so that we could focus on each other, our friends and family, and soaking in every moment of our special day. After working through some early challenges in communication, and despite feeling that parts of their process were a bit repetitive or tedious, we were impressed with their overall organization and attention to detail. They clearly understand the makings of a beautiful wedding and often anticipated our needs and questions, quick to offer resources and solutions. Overall, our wedding day was a success and we know we could not have gotten through the details, scheduling, and organization without the reassurance and expertise of the Brooke Voris Weddings team.
