The videographers captured every special moment of our day, and the teaser trailer was incredible. The overall style of the videos is so cool and beautifully done.

Having grown up on a farm in Central Illinois, I am a filmmaker living in Chicago. I began doing wedding videography in 2017 while living in Bend, Oregon. I love intimate, small-scale weddings and elopements.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Jacob Logan Barth as our wedding videographer was an absolute pleasure. His communication was wonderful, with no issues at all. Jacob is very professional, incredibly skilled, and knows what he’s doing - I couldn't have asked for a better wedding videographer. Jacob got to the venue early to set up and make sure everything was working properly, and he stayed until the very end of the wedding to capture all of the best, most meaningful, and precious moments. Watching our wedding video gives me chills and makes me cry every time. I would give Jacob a 10/10 rating and highly recommend him to any couple considering having a videographer for their wedding. Jacob knows exactly what he’s doing and truly cares about the work he delivers. If you're on the fence about having a videographer, I'd absolutely recommend going for it and choosing Jacob.

I love working with people in the entertainment business, it's what I know & care about. There is no better type of work then being able to see people happy & excited. I have always been very creative & artistic, which is why I work well editing videos & writing music.

I didn't have a way to contact DJ Scotty G for 2 weeks before our wedding (my phone broke), so I couldn't get our song list emailed to him. The day of the wedding, he showed up early so we could get it set. He didn't have our song in his vast music library and didn't get a signal at our wedding venue so while we were saying "I do", he went in search of a signal, got our song downloaded, and had it playing when we walked into our reception. This above and beyond service meant the world to us!

Hey guys, we are a collective that has come together to better serve our community. They say “if you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” Benjamin and Kelsey met at a coffee house when Kelsey was a cute girl with a camera in hand. Needless to say, they discovered that they had a mutual passion for more than just photography. We are chasers of our next adventure. Whether that be on a windy mountaintop, or in a deep valley for intimate quite moments. We are obsessed with capturing images of our couples that truly resonate with them.

If you are of the opinion that the photographer is one of the most important roles in your wedding, you are looking in the right place. Ben of Boxcar was exactly what I wanted in a photographer: easy to work with, flexible, personable, adventurous, respectful, responsive, passionate and generous. In addition to being an all-around great guy, Ben also knows how to use a camera. I'm not sure I am qualified to try and classify his style, but I would say it has a certain photo-journalist quality to it. A quality that conveys realism, but is also very artistic. Long and short of it is, I highly recommend this guy. You will not be disappointed.

We believe in preserving your softest, most intimate moments through a timeless lens. For the couple who wants their love story told the way it deserves to be told: softly, deeply, and unfolding in real time.

Hiring Jodi for our wedding was one of the greatest decisions we made for our big day. From the moment she arrived, she brought joy and pure talent that instantly made us feel relaxed and taken care of. Jodi didn’t just take photos—she captured every emotion, every detail, and every unforgettable moment in a way that still blows us away. The way she sees light, angles, and spontaneous moments is next level. Our photos look like they belong in a magazine, yet still feel completely natural and true to us. She’s incredibly easy to work with, gives amazing directions, and has this magical ability to make everyone feel comfortable—even the people who “never take good pictures.” Spoiler: with Jodi, they do!! Our family and friends keep talking about how beautiful our photos are and how great Jodi was throughout the entire day. She blended in effortlessly, kept everything running smoothly, and delivered memories we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives. If you’re able to book Jodi, do it. She’s worth every penny and then some. We feel so lucky to have had her capture our wedding. 1000% recommend. Jodi is truly the best.

My name is Gage Horne, the owner of Gage Horne Studios. I started my company in 2019 (officially) but have been doing video work starting at the age of 11. It started as gaming videos uploaded to YouTube, to shooting professional dance films in college, to starting my own Video Production Service. I found true passion in my work when I realized how important wedding videos are. I had already shot 100+ films before my wedding but realized as a consumer how valuable it is. I love what I do and finding intriguing/interesting ways to display those pieces is what keeps me creative and constantly making my films better.

Gage was the perfect choice to hire for our wedding videography! He met with us early on to get clear on our vision, and was extremely punctual with communication the whole time leading up to the event. He asked clarifying questions throughout the process as needed, letting us know that he was truly paying attention to us and our needs. He was a super positive energy to have around the day of, and the videos turned out gorgeous! He's skilled at at his craft AND a great person to work with... a combo that we were specifically looking for, and 100% found in Gage. There are a few things we'd do differently if we had a do-over for the wedding, but hiring Gage would not be one of them. He was fantastic start to finish, and is an easy 10/10 recommendation to anyone else considering hiring him. Thanks Gage!

Having Making Lab at our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. The team was incredible. From the very beginning, Martin and Kero were warm, approachable, and quick to answer my questions. They happily jumped on calls to help plan our timeline. On the day of the wedding, the team arrived promptly and got to work right away. A 10-hour day of smiling and posing sounds exhausting, but Martin and Kero made it fun and effortless. They helped realign us when we were running behind schedule and never made us feel rushed. Their editing style is truly beautiful. It's soft and romantic, with a touch of vintage and cinematic. Martin and Kero are extremely artistic and talented. I had four different looks throughout the day, and Kero captured each one in its own distinct style, yet everything still felt cohesive and aligned with the overall aesthetic. Martin is an amazing storyteller. He beautifully showcases the love and joy we felt on our big day in what feels like a movie trailer. They made sure to include our dog in our special moments as well, sometimes even making him the star of the show! My heart flutters every time a new file is uploaded to our drive because I'm so excited to see what new magic they've created. Every time we look through our photos or hit play on our video, it feels like we're reliving that special day all over again. We are beyond grateful for the way they captured our love and preserved our memories so beautifully. By the end of the night, it felt like we had gained friends rather than just hired vendors. We truly could not recommend Making Lab more!
