“reviewBody”: “Corresponded with Julian, worked with two videographers (mainly Mike). 5/5 stars. 10/10 review. If you are someone (like me) who researches all the available options, checks ratings, read reviews, sorts based on pricing, communication, availability, work product examples, etc. then shutter and sound is for you. We had an incredible experience and would highly recommend. Most importantly their biggest strength is consistent and clear communication. Question answering and help leading up to the wedding is a plus. Also, both videographers (Mike in particular), were absolutely AWESOME. Seriously- the direction Mike gave us, his attention to detail and awareness of time constraints/schedule were phenomenal. It was so much fun to follow his directions and execute the ideas for the shots he had. He made it super fun and enjoyable. He also worked fantastically alongside our photographer and other vendors. The Shutter and Sound team was just fricken awesome. Upbeat, quick with ideas, and just forceful enough to get shots quickly without being too much. They were so encouraging and honestly made us feel like superstars. Came to our house, got all kinds of shots, getting ready process, going to the venue, at the venue, ceremony, reception, guests, dancing, everything. They moved around effortlessly, and with a smile. Getting the post ceremony and sunset shots with them was probably the most carefree relaxing period of the event. They respected our time, were excellent at their job, were flexible yet helpful, communicated clearly and frequently, and were fun to work with.”,

“reviewBody”: “Shutter and Sound Films was such an easy decision when choosing our wedding videographer! My older sister had used them for her wedding and we were just so impressed by the stunning work they did with her videos, that my family knew we had to hire them again! We loved how inconspicuous they were while capturing every moment of our special day. Ched and Nathan were just fabulous to work with all day long. They were sweet, funny, professional, so talented, and made us feel comfortable in front of the lens. Quinn and Julian were wonderful throughout the entire planning process. They both listened to our needs and wants and were very accommodating to any requests/changes we had along the way. We selected the package where we received a documentary style edit of our entire event, as well as a short video put to a song of our choice, showcasing the highlighted moments. We were so happy we made this choice and absolutely loved the short 4-minute film, as it captured our day perfectly in a nutshell. It’s a beautiful film to show to our guests who couldn’t make it to our wedding, as well as a wonderful keepsake for ourselves. The quality and clarity of the Shutter and Sounds work is unbelievable and we are so happy we chose them to capture our wedding day! We are so grateful to the entire team!!”,

I was very particular about the type of video I wanted (more of a fun music video vibe!) Everyone on the Shutter and Sound team was so responsive and helpful from the moment I reached out during my planning process, especially Julian who did a wonderful job with our coordination and follow up. Ched and Nathan were so fun to work with on our wedding day and did an amazing job capturing the day! I highly recommend purchasing the Instagram clip to share with family and friends right after the wedding. Our full highlight video was delivered within 2 weeks (before our photographer even got us our sneak peaks back!) Thank you Shutter and Sound for capturing our day!!!”,

The crew at Shutter & Sound has been amazing through all of our planning and very accommodating with our postponement! Quinn is wonderful and was always so helpful and communicative. Julian was our lead videographer and he did an amazing job! It felt so natural and his cues for my partner and I were very gentle and made us look great! We love our wedding highlight videos and can’t wait for the multi-camera edit when it’s ready in a few months. Highly recommend working with Shutter & Sound!”,

Our videographer, Paul, went ABOVE and BEYOND what we expected. Not just from a videographer perspective (perfect highlight reel, quality of the shots, attention to detail, telling us to do certain things to get the shots he needed, etc.), but he also helped align the day with the rest of our vendors. When he noticed some continuity issues between the vendors, he proactively brought all of them together and took the lead on making sure that our day went as smooth as possible. Paul also really cared about us enjoying OUR SPECIAL DAY and made sure that we were enjoying ourselves throughout the process— We are so grateful to have met him and couldn’t have been happier with our experience with Shutter and Sound.”,

“reviewBody”: “An old friend from high school posted her wedding video on facebook a few years back and I immediately knew I wanted Shutter and Sound as our videographer. Of course trying to be a budget friendly bride I shopped around, reviewing other vendors videos and pricing. With all the research I did there are no other videographers in the Massachusetts area that even compare. Although there are some options that were more affordable, you really are paying for the quality here. We decided to go big and booked their largest package which included 2 videographers for up to 10 hours, a 7-9 minute trailer, and a full day documentary style video. We also decided to purchase the raw footage. We have not received our full documentary style video yet but we received the wedding trailer in only about three weeks. We have rewatched our wedding trailer multiple times and are both completely in love with it. Some of the comments we have received from friends and family include ’It looks like a music video or a movie’ ‘this is the best wedding video I have ever seen!’ and ‘I cried watching this!’.

I believe Shutter and Sound has different videographers that work for them, however Mike and Phil were the ones that shot our wedding. They were both so nice and somehow managed to get so much footage without us really even noticing them. They also worked so well alongside our photographer. Phil even came to the rescue helping the groomsmen tie their ties when they were having problems with it! Their professionalism and skills were very apparent. There are some great shots that Mike took that really make the trailer have that dramatic movie effect.

I also want to add that our original wedding date was cancelled due to COVID it was supposed to be June 2020 and was moved to June 2021. Shutter and Sound was great to work with and accommodated the change of date without a problem. As you can imagine it was a very stressful time for us and having them be so accommodating took the pressure right off!

If you are looking to book a professional and skilled videographer please do not look and further I promise you will not be disappointed!”,

Our videographers (Julian and Juan) were so amazing to work with and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. They also worked really well in tandem with our photographer. I’m so happy we made the decision to hire Shutter and Sound. Your wedding day seems like it flashes by in the blink of an eye, but our video from that day will be something we will cherish for the rest of our lives.”,

I communicated with Quinn via email before the wedding- she was SO helpful and responsive, always on top of things and organized. We had Seth and Megan as videographers for the day of and they were amazing. Clearly so experienced and talented, they got some really cool shots of us throughout the day and I cannot wait to see it all when we get our raw footage and documentary edit. We received the highlight video while we were on our honeymoon and watched it probably 40 times before even coming back home, it was done so beautifully, we are in love. Seth and Megan both made us feel so comfortable all day long, even when some of the shots they have to get feel cheesy or staged, they acknowledged it and we laughed it off, then it’s amazing how stunning it turned out in the video!!! Couldn’t be happier! Also worth noting, the price was more than reasonable for the quality of the work they did and the final product!!! Last thing, my husband and I wanted to use a song special to us that wasn’t on any of the sites S&S uses, but they were so willing to work with us and helped us get a personal license directly from the band so we could use it in our video! SO happy and I highly recommend!”,

Ched and Jeannelle were nothing short of masterful on our big day. We’ve actually seen the two of them work twice now (once for a friend’s wedding a month prior to our own, and then our own this past weekend), and each time, they captured high-quality footage both individually and together.

We can’t recommend Shutter and Sound enough, and we can’t recommend these three highly enough. If you decide to go with them, you’ll be in very capable hands.”,

Doyle and his wife were great to work with as well! I personally am not the most creative person so I sort of depended on them to let me know what they wanted to do. Me and my husband felt very comfortable working with them.

I’m grateful for all their help and patience leading up to my wedding day. I highly recommend them!”,

“reviewBody”: “We started our search for a videographer with Ryan Geldermann, whose fabulous work we had seen at a friend’s wedding. Ryan informed us that he personally was booked on our date, but recommended we take a look at his company Shutter and Sound. After looking at some of Seth’s work and speaking with him over the phone, we knew we had found our videographer!
Seth worked with us before the wedding to determine a videography schedule that worked for everyone and made sure he and his second shooter were prepared for our big day. Then on the day of our wedding, he worked extremely well with our photographer and did a great job of capturing the moment without inserting himself in the moment. Plus he was flexible when the weather didn’t cooperate and we had to change our plan! I was SO HAPPY with our experience with Seth on the day of our wedding – he and the second shooter were so pleasant and I’m so glad they were a part of our big day!
After our wedding, we continued to experience great communication with Shutter and Sound. They were flexible when we decided to use a brand new song for our highlight video, and waited to create our video until the song was finally available. Then they completed our highlight video in a timely fashion and then quickly mailed our 3 blu rays and raw footage. We couldn’t be happier and are so thankful we chose Shutter and Sound to help capture our special day!”,

It was also really nice just hanging out and talking to Doyle, I know our wedding was very loud and chaotic and Doyle handled everything so well! I am so proud of you, Doyle!

Another great thing about them I have to mention, shutter and sound film they been very responsive and professional. I got my video in 2 weeks, which much quicker than I thought! The video was great, but I’m very specific person, I had to asked them to put effect on one of the scene. I actually feel really bad and nervous to ask. However, the second day I heard back from the manager, She told me ‘don’t worry, we wanna you to be happy’!

Many thanks to Alex and Kylee!! I truly love my wedding video and truly appreciated! I strongly recommend shutter and sound film to every new couple who’s looking for great wedding videographers!!”,

“reviewBody”: “Shutter and Sound did an incredible job with our highlight video (they really did send it to us within just a few days!) and we cannot wait to see how our DVD turns out. We had a very jam-packed, 8-hour wedding with two ceremonies, an afternoon tea, cocktail hour, and reception, and Shutter and Sound didn’t miss a single key moment. We were blown away by the artistry of our view and the creativity of the shots. The video is paced very well and perfectly complements the song we chose from their huge selection of tracks. We’ve received so many compliments from friends and family, who’ve commented that they’ve never seen a wedding video this good, and we noticed that they worked extremely well with our photographer. They even caught on (without us telling them) to who key family members and friends were, and included special shots of them in our video. Highly recommend Shutter and Sound for a beautiful and unique video and a very smooth booking and communication process!”,

“reviewBody”: “Shutter and Sound was Amazing! We are literally Obsessed with our Highlight Video. Matt was such a quiet guy day of and I wasn’t sure if he was getting all the shots he need since it was so busy and we were so behind in our schedule. Matt delivered. He was awesome, worked well with our photographer and gave us exactly what we wanted. We were able to choose our song and personalize the video. The Turnaround time is unbelievable. We literally just got married last week and got our video a week later. I would definitely recommend anyone to Shutter and Sound. The team is great, They answer all our questions in a timely manner. If you are looking to have your wedding day look like a movie then choose shutter and sound. I’ve watched our video hundreds of times by now and I am still shocked by it. This is the closest to ReLiving our wedding day that I can get. I could not thank them enough for making this video and capturing our day.”,

“reviewBody”: “We were thrilled with our experience with Shutter and Sound. Quinn, the Scheduling Manager, was very easy to work with, responded promptly, and always answered all of our questions.

Michael and his assistant, Kevin, filmed our wedding two weeks in Massachusetts. On the day of the wedding, they were very professional, pleasant, and truly faded into the background (in the best possible way). Everyone was extremely comfortable around them and they worked very well with our photographers. I was very happy with Michael’s flexibility to get the signature shots but also appreciated his directness in what he was looking for in them.

We just received our highlight video and we love it. It is truly a production – Michael pulled all of the best parts of the night and put it together perfectly. We got ‘The Feature’ and added drone covered and it was well wroth it. I have watched many wedding videos and none compare to the quality of Shutter and Sound.

We are very thankful to have chosen Shutter and Sound and are so happy we have this beautiful video to relive the best day of our lives!”,

Both my wife and I highly recommend Shutter and Sound to capture your most precious memories.”,

They covered our entire day backwards and forwards and didn’t miss a single moment, all while basically being invisible to us. We hardly even knew they were there. We requested the raw footage and were able to cut together a few different versions for different family members to go with their thank you notes. Even if you don’t know how to edit, I highly recommend purchasing the raw footage. My wife and I spent a few nights watching all of it and remembering every detail of our wedding. They not only captured every moment, but they captured it in an artful and beautiful way, which we’ll be able to look back on fondly for the rest of our lives. Thanks so much!”,

Quinn, the scheduler, was so easy to work with and answered all my questions so fast. Our videographers were Kenny and Jessica and they were absolute troopers on our 12 degree Chicago winter wedding day. We were out taking photos/video for about three hours and I never once heard them say anything about how cold it was. The outcome of all Shutter & Sound videos is incredible, its true quality that I know will be absolutely timeless forever. If you’re on the fence of getting a videographer for your wedding, DO IT, and hire Shutter & Sound immediately!”,

Everyone at Shutter and Sound was very professional and kind, I spoke a lot with the coordinator (Quinn) via email and she was always very helpful, and I felt as if leading up to the wedding I could message her for anything and everything. Once we were paired with Matt and Kylee it was great- they both are extremely talented and have a great eye for filming and managed to get every shot without me even noticing the camera. The wedding highlight video was truly amazing, I cried the first 15 times I watched it, and though I thought it was because it was my wedding, I found out that it made my friends and family tear up as well- it was a very moving video with all the highlights of the wedding weekend. I can’t recommend them enough, and I’m so glad we pick S&S to capture our big day, and from one bride to another, I recommend you do the same!”,

They were always there and got all the best moments but we’re never intrusive or in the way! I honestly don’t even know how they got some of the shots because I didn’t see them around for many of them! They’re magicians haha. In 3 days, we recited an absolutely INCREDIBLE video. They captured all the most important moments and edited them together beautifully. The music, the timing, the shots… all amazing! My friend said it best when she said, ‘It looked like a trailer for a movie I wanted to watch!’ We received SO many compliments on it and teared up while watching it ourselves! We now have the perfect snap shot to remember our day by! I couldn’t recommend them any higher! :)”,

He turned around a video that captures our venue – with a drone, our crowd, speeches, vows – EVERYTHING – seamlessly and to perfection. We are OBSESSED with our video and will cherish it forever.

To think that a 4 minute video could capture our day seemed impossible, but Shutter and Sound went beyond what we expected and took every special moment for us to treasure forever.

I chose the Short option which was the middle level and my videographers were beyond amazing!!! And the price was very competitive and reasonable compared to others!

First of all we got our highlight video within a week, I feel like that is unheard of, and the quality is OUTSTANDING!!!!!!! They perfectly captured the happiness love and joy of our day.

There are so many details that I love about the video I won’t bore you with them all but I couldn’t recommend Shutter & Sound more!

They made both myself and the groom feel comfortable at all times!

They captured everything we wanted and I forgot they were there at times they never got in the way! They also told us exactly what they needed for certain shots and why and were so informative and easy to work with!

I can’t wait to see the rest!!!! Thank you again I would recommend these guys to anyone!”,

Seth and Wendy were incredibly professional and fun to work with. We got our wedding highlight back quickly and people are raving about it – and we absolutely love it.

Our video took into account the high level of love and emotions that were flying around that day, and even later on the dance party. I can’t wait to see what our full edit will look like – but I know it’ll be perfectly done!

They were super easy to work with, timely on the wedding day and in getting us the video, and super responsive and open-minded throughout the planning process.

I truly left my wedding feeling defeated and miserable. It was not a happy beautiful day at all. But, Shutter and Sound’s video has helped my groom and me change our perspective and the way we remember the day, which is an irreplaceable and priceless gift!!! I HIGHLY recommend the Chicago team!”,

“reviewBody”: “I was one of those brides that was hesitant to book a videographer. All the videos I had seen were incredibly cheesy, and cringe-worthy. I did not want to spend the money unless I loved it. I happened to stumble on Ryan Geldermann and fell in love with his style of editing, but he was all the way in Maryland! Ryan quickly answered all my emails, and informed me of his company branch in Los Angeles.

Not only was the quality and the style amazing, it was incredibly affordable compared to other videographers. The communication prior and during the wedding was impeccable. Dealing with many vendors, you GREATLY start appreciating a 24 hour turn around with emails, and sometimes Ryan or Alex would email me back within minutes.

The day of the wedding Alex and Tim showed up on time, professional, and so easy to get along with. They communicated with my husband, photographer, venue, and wedding coordinator amazingly. It is SO nice to find people who work well with others. I have been to weddings where you really FEEL the presence of the photographer and videographer, but Alex and Tim were exceptional about remaining incognito.

Within 3 days, we had our wedding highlights video, and it was absolutely amazing. We literally got non-stop compliments about the highlights video. They are truly spectacular, and in my opinion one of a kind. For your reference, their turn around time for your full wedding coverage (no music, just straight edited wedding footage) is 2 weeks. Seriously? I have people wait 6 months to a year for their video.

Honestly, I cannot say enough great things about Ryan, Alex, and the 2nd cameraman Tim. They SHOULD be your go to choice for videography. They are worth EVERY penny, and you will greatly appreciate the communication, professionalism, delivery, and QUALITY of their work.

Thank you so much to Shutter and Sound!
