About Chad Whelan

Chad Whelan

Owner

Upbeat storytelling. Never posed, free-form and candid. Specializing in short form uptempo vignette wedding films and classic full length documentary edits. Everything is shot, edited and delivered in beautiful high resolution 4K video. I am currently working and traveling between CT + central MI. There are no additional travel charges to either area.

My video shooting style is 100% candid and very organic! I will never be posing you or staging fake shots. I have a true photo-journalistic approach to capturing the day. You will also find final edits to be much more upbeat than most with an emphasis on natural emotion. I am very experienced, having run a successful full-time business in the wedding industry for over 20 years. I am always the primary shooter, editor, etc and handle every facet of my business. My packaging is all-inclusive giving you everything I have to offer in one package option.

    Chad videoed my sister in laws wedding as well as my own. My husband and I booked Chad two years prior to our wedding. After seeing my sister in laws video I knew Chad would be the right fit for us! He responded quickly to all of our emails. Chad made sure to talk with us multiple times prior to our wedding to make sure he knew exactly what to capture. We received our teaser days after our wedding and our full videos 12 weeks after. We had NO IDEA what music to pick and let Chad choose the music for us, the music he picked was perfect! Highly recommend Chad and his wife!

    Your wedding day is a day you want to remember for the rest of your life and relive over and over again after spending months planning your perfect day. We are so happy that we decided to work with Chad as he provided us with a video that we could not be happier with capturing every detail! Chad and Samantha arrived at the church early to set up and hook up the groom with a wireless mic which captured every word during the ceremony. Throughout the day, we felt like we were always on the move and Chad and Samantha were always in the best spot to capture all our moments and details. When we received our teaser trailer (like 2 days after our wedding!) we noticed so many candid moments that were captured, such as the groom casually playing with the wedding ring. And when we reviewed our final video we were so impressed with how Chad cut together the moments of our day, timed the transitions to the music perfectly, and even adjusted the speed of some moments to create artful transitions between a fast-passed song and our first slower dance. We trusted Chad to capture our special day and he did not disappoint. He was an absolute pleasure to work with and was even able to incorporate some of our wedding photos into the video and it came out amazing! Throughout the process, Chad always responded quickly via e-mail and kept us updated on his progress. He was so patient in working with us and is all about making his customers happy. Before finalizing our video, he sent us a copy of it and asked for our feedback. The video was amazing, and we couldn’t stop watching it on repeat. After taking in all the special moments, admiring Chad’s attention to detail, and enjoying how the video paired with the audio and music so perfectly and creatively, we had a few requests. We noticed that a few special moments to us were missing from the first cut, so we asked Chad if he could add it in. He responded right away and was able to update the video with no issues quickly. It’s nice to work with someone who is a true professional and has an eye for detail. We are so lucky to be able to relive our perfect day for the rest of our life with a huge smile on our faces and a happy tear once in while ! Thank you, Chad!!
