Hey, I'm Victor Silas, the heart and lens behind Visil Videography. As the owner and lead filmmaker, I'm deeply passionate about storytelling and capturing love stories on film. It's not just about recording moments; it's about documenting a moment you will relive. Our film style is documentary-style; we use sound, capturing all the laughs with your bridesmaids when you're getting ready, to the moment you see each other for the first time, your vows, and speeches from your wedding party to tell your story.

Victor was so fun to work with! We absolutely love our video, it turned out so beautiful. He captured our whole wedding day perfectly. Would absolutely recommend!

Bailey with Avant-Garde Videography was a pleasure to work with for Kristen Justin wedding. We were the DJ (Midwest Best DJs) and Bailey had great communication throughout the process, responding promptly to any questions or requests we had. The quality of her work was amazing and truly captured the fun and energy of the day. She worked seamlessly as part of the vendor team, helping to ensure everything ran smoothly.

Hungry Heart Films

  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Great Lakes, IL

We’re Hungry Heart Films, a husband and wife wedding team in Chicago. We believe the best wedding films are unexpected and sincere, the kind of film that can transport you back to the feeling of that awesome day every time you watch it! Your vibe as a couple is unique and your wedding film should be too! We capture your day as it naturally unfolds, whether you're on the quiet side or throwing a rager to remember.

We're so happy we booked Brian and Rebecca of Hungry Heart!! They were both so open, honest, and answered all of questions before we even had a chance to ask them. We both don't love being in front of a camera and were worried about having both a photographer and videographer at the wedding, but Brian and Rebecca were so respectful of our space. They were the perfect combination of warm, approachable, and professional. Our final film is so beautiful, we've already watched it a million times. Thank you both so much!

I found Saja through a tagged video of my wedding venue (The Glen Manor House) midway through planning, and was immediately sold! Her artistry, talent and the opulence mirrored my vision so much that I ended up firing my previously booked videographer! So if you’re reading this, and you already booked a videographer; you may need to reconsider because every bride needs a Saja on her wedding day! She is personable, professional and extremely considerate! The produced work is phenomenal and is a keepsake that will transcend family generations!! You regret hiring Mawaddah Productions for your big day!

Awarded Best of Zola
Anthony was easy to work with at the wedding. I was a DJ at the wedding I worked with him and from an artistic standpoint, what I saw of his work so far was great. Just like the rest of the vendors at this wedding, he went with the flow and went above and beyond to give the couple the best experience they could get especially under the crazy weather circumstances we had! Rain almost all day, thunderstorms, a tornado warning (it was an outdoor tent wedding) and some high winds that almost took out the tent! Despite that, he remained positive and fun. His needs from me were minimal (tapping into my sound system) and he made sure I wasn't busy when he asked me about it. If the rest of his work is as good as the little I've seen so far, you can't go wrong with his video service!

We cannot speak highly enough of Jeremy and Cinescope Video! Not only did he travel a long ways to us for our wedding (3 states over from his home base!), he was very easy to communicate with, captured our day in such a beautiful and elegant way and our film was MUCH longer & better quality than lots of our friends who had gotten married in the last few years. You can't go wrong with picking Cinescope Video for your videography needs. We can't thank you enough, Jeremy, for the masterpiece you provided us to remember our perfect day!
