Nothing but great things to say about Drew! His friendly personality and charisma brought everyone together for some of the days best highlights.
Drew adapted to every situation and has my wife and I reminiscing on our day with his incredible videography.
PHENOMENAL. You will not be disappointed. Drew did such an amazing job of guiding us through everything and getting amazing footage. The best money we spent at our wedding.
Drew was incredible and professional throughout the entire wedding process. A quick look at his portfolio will show that his work is of the highest quality, but his demeanor and professionalism really set him apart. His work was definitely worth every penny and I plan on hiring him again for other video projects in the future.
Any questions?
Working with Drew was such an easy and stress-free process! We simply can not say enough good things about our experience. He captured our day so perfectly and for that we are beyond grateful. Drew is a true artist in many ways; He pays attention to detail, captures the sweetest moments, and turns memories into a unique and meaningful film. Thank you Drew, not only for being a part of our special day but for sharing your gifts and talents with our little family - You are beyond gifted! We will forever recommend and cheer you on in your business.
I simply cannot put into words how blessed we were to have Drew capture our day. He was so easy to work with at all stages of this process. From the beginning he asked about our background and what we were looking for in our video for our big day. He was sure to ask our music taste as well and perfectly incorporate that into our video. When the day came he was incredible to work with by just letting us be ourselves as a couple, along with our friends and family, so that he could truly capture who we are and how much joy we felt throughout the day. I will never be able to thank him enough for capturing our day for us!
Drew was great! He is personable, professional and timely. He takes the time to listen and learn about you and what you are looking for.
Drew is the best! From start to finish he made the process seamless and lifted any concern and stress I had! Not to mention the great job he did capturing our special day! I couldn't recommend him more!
Drew is the absolute best. I had been following along with Drew's photography and wedding videos for a while, so I knew as soon as I got engaged I needed to have his creative vision for our wedding video. Drew goes above and beyond--
For example, right before I (bride) was supposed to walk down the aisle, I realized how windy it was and that my cathedral length veil was going to wrap me like a cocoon. Drew was the ONLY person around me at this point, everyone else had already been walking and in their positions, and he put down his camera, ran my veil inside, came back out, and finished recording my dad and I walking down the aisle and the rest of the ceremony.
Then, shortly after our wedding, my father in law passed away, and Drew found out about this and made sure to include some pretty significant pieces of my father-in-law, like him and my husband high-fiving back down the aisle after we were announced as husband and wife, along with several other memories that someone else may have overlooked.
If that doesn't scream greatest videographer of all time, I don't know what does. Book Drew now!
Drew is simply the best. After him taking over my social media, my company has blown up. Everyone constantly asking me who I’m using. Of course I always just say my secret weapon, Drew!!
Drew was awesome to work with! From the preliminary meetings through our big day, he made everything so easy for us. He was detail oriented and extremely helpful when we asked for guidance in certain areas when planning the flow of our day. Highly recommend him!
Drew is AMAZING! We had an awesome meeting with him before the wedding letting him know our music preference and wedding theme. From there, he took that information and captured our day in the most incredible way. He created a video that was filled with moments people saw along with the behind-the-scenes moments that still are some of my favorites. He captured real and raw emotions and stitched those together beautifully into a video we watch so frequently! Not only did he make our favorite video, he was also so easy to hang out with throughout the day. Drew is an all-around fantastic guy that you would be lucky to have capture your wedding day!
He did an amazing job! Spectacular skill and a great eye to make your wedding stand out!
Drew was amazing!
Drew made booking a videographer a breeze. From start to finish he was prompt, informative, honest, and friendly. Definitely the highlight of my wedding looking back on our special day.
Amazing work! Look no further!
Drew was very professional and fun to be around.
He was so much fun, so professional, and the video turned out amazing! The best in the midwest!
Drew was THE best to work with! He captured our wedding day so perfectly and THEN, put the video together so beautifully that I still cry every time I watch it. He is absolutely amazing and I definitely recommend that you book him for your wedding video! It’s the perfect forever keepsake ❤️

I came across this Steve Jobs quote a few years ago that inspired me to change my life:
“Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do.”
After that, I made a commitment that I wasn’t going to do something I hated just to make money, but instead find something I truly loved doing so that I could achieve great work in my lifetime. If you haven’t found yours yet keep searching. You’ll find it just like I did.
