Surprise proposals & engagements

From surprise proposals to your wedding day, we capture the moments you want to remember and share. Our flexible packages start at $375. If you love the work we do, we allow you to use the money you spent on your engagement shoot towards our wedding packages, up to $375, making it free. We give you two weeks after the original service date to decide if you'd like to roll that money into a wedding film with us.

We mainly shoot these types of videos in and around the Chicago area, but will happily discuss package options that allow for travel.

Our process

We take our engagements shoots and surprise proposals as seriously as we do our weddings. For engagements and surprise engagements we do take photos and video. One photo is always given within an hour of the session and the video is usually produced the next day, with an optional revision if you need anything changed.

For surprise proposals we ship you a microphone you can hide to capture every moment with high fidelity audio in addition to the video. These come in black or white depending on what you are wearing.

Because we also film weddings throughout the entire year, ensure you contact us as quickly as possible so we can let you know if we have space available to film. Believe it or not, it can actually sometimes take more planning on our part to ensure we can film at the venue you plan on proposing at etc, so the earlier we work together, the better.

We edit all of our content in-house, something that we think is important for getting your film getting completed at the highest of quality and on time. For those who use or services for both weddings and engagements, we will typically integrate sections of the shoot at no additional charge.

You put so much effort into planning the perfect wedding. We capture your special day so that you can remember those precious moments and ensure high quality video and audio and will work with you to create the perfect package to meet your needs.

Our flexible packages start at $850.00 which include all day coverage as standard and one camera person. Contact us below to see what we can do for you and we'll show you how simple we make what can be a difficult process. This way you may always upgrade your package, even after the wedding to receive even more of your day and can be more budget friendly, even if you plan on upgrading from the start but would like to wait a bit longer.

Our process

We can begin planning and filming at many different stages of your wedding planning. For some, this means we will begin filming before the wedding, incorporating footage about how to you met and just generally telling your love story. Say you have found two venues that you love and can't choose between, we can let you know what will look better for photos and video, guiding your decision.

Our style of shooting is cinematic documentary. We aim to capture the day as you experienced it, rather than directing it. We aim to keep our equipment out of your way and keep things as low key as possible. We don't lug around giant camera rigs.

If you used our engagement service, we will typically integrate that footage at no additional charge into your final wedding film. Packages. Packages may vary in the what is delivered, we can shoot for anything from a 2-4 minute highlight film to a longer documentery-style edit.
