This Charming Heart

We had a pandemic wedding with a tighter budget but really wanted to have a videographer. Alejandra offered her time and advice to me over FaceTime for planning my wedding and the logistics of the schedule, which was so nice and helpful. She also worked with me on what services she could offer to us with our budget and that meant so much! We felt that we weren’t missing out on capturing our memories and that she really pulled some strings for us. The outcome was a beautiful, tear jerking video filled with intimate and silly moments and that’s all we could’ve asked for!

I am obsessed with my wedding video and watch it over and over every day. I'm so glad we decided to hire a videographer. The video shows so much emotion and love, it's obvious Alejandra is the best.

I don't know where to begin, but I will start with what a fantastic people to work with. This Charming Heart assisted me in recording my proposal and they did an outstanding job even though the weather was against us that day. They arrived on early and ready to go. They had my fiancé and I take multiple takes/shots to make sure they were not missing any details. The best part that I loved was that they caught the audio of me proposing and it was wonderful to hear all the great things about my fiancé. I cannot recommend them enough! 5/5 star review!

We are blown away by the quality of our wedding trailer and feature film. She captured the day perfectly - rewatching the video transports us to those moments. We also added on the save the date video which we absolutely love - we re-enacted the day we met and even had our puppy in it! She also referred us to our photographer Mirror & Lakes, it was so great to work with them both on our engagement and wedding! We were able to submit music that had significance to us for the feature film which ads meaning and character. Highly recommend!

Let’s just say I have watched our wedding highlight video at least a hundred times and we just got it last week. And I cried the first time I saw it. I was on the fence for awhile whether or not to hire a videographer but I am beyond happy that I went with This Charming Heart. Alejandra was so easy to work with, was really responsive both before and after the wedding, and worked really well with my photographer the day of. She and her assistant are the type of videographers who somehow manage to get all of the best shots without being in your face about it- a lot of my guests didn’t even know we had a videographer- which was really important to me. Her work is just absolutely stunning and I would highly recommend This Charming Heart if you are looking for an artistic and romantic video to remember your special day!!

I cannot put into words how happy I am that I chose to work with This Charming Heart. Alejandra and her team did such a wonderful job! They went above and beyond on our wedding day.They're so profressional, friendly and come up with great ideas to get you the best shots possible. I love our video! We recieved so many compliments from friends and family about our highlight film. We could not be anymore pleased.

There's nothing I can say to give Alejandra justice for all that she did for our wedding! We hired Alejandra In April of 2017 for our June 2018 wedding. From the start Alejandra was very easy to communicate with and was always available to talk. When we booked she also suggested that we do a "save the date" video as we did not need her for the full 10 hours. This was such an awesome idea and something I had never heard of! Her work was truly amazing and it was the perfect opportunity for her and the photographer to meet and get acquainted with each other. On the day of the wedding Alejandra showed up on time and everything went so smoothly! She even had a 2nd videographer show up later to help shoot our wedding which was an unexpected surprise! We received our video a few days later and were absolutely blown away by her work and how fast she was able to provide us with our video! Our day would not have been the same without her! She worked so well with everyone and was such a joy to be around the entire day! It is important to mention that our wedding was an all outdoor wedding from ceremony through reception and it was 110 degrees out! Not once did Alejandra complain or get upset she smiled through the entire day! We couldn't recommend Alejandra more, from her communication, to work ethic, to her video's she deserves 10 STARS! We love our video and cannot wait to watch it and show our children and children's children one day!

Choosing Alejandra and her crew from This Charming Heart to be our videographer was one of the best vendor decisions we made for our big day! From the engagement video to the full two hour video we received, everything was amazing. The team captured some really amazing moments and memories from our day that we will be able to cherish forever! I love being able to go back and watch our short clip and I get goosebumps every time. Everything was perfect and we could not be happier with our choice!!

Alejandra was wonderful to work with. Her style is exactly what I was looking for, but she still made me feel like I had input with her overall vision for our video. She is kind, punctual, professional and easy going. I HIGHLY recommend her!

Alejandra is absolutely amazing. We loved working with her. She documented our day EXACTLY how we wanted it and exceeded our expectations. We watch our highlight reel more than we'd like to admit, it's that good! :) I highly recommend This Charming Heart!

Alejandra creates such amazing work! When booking Alejandra, I loved how she had worked with so many different types of couples. I told Alejandra that I wanted an upbeat video that showed the energy of the day. Even though Alejandra typically makes very romantic videos, she was able to create a high energy video that showed how much fun we had on our wedding day. I originally was against having a wedding video, but I am so glad I did! The instagram, highlight, and full video turned out amazing! We made a great decision booking Alejandra to work with us.

Wedding date 4/14/18. A BIG WOW and THANK YOU to Alejandra and her team. We absolutely love it! We came so close to not having a videographer. That would've been a big mistake. But we had no doubt when we entrusted Alejandra to incorporate her creativity and vision for our big day. After seeing our wedding videos, we could not wait to write a review for her. You see where her passion is. It was such a positive and great experience. Absolutely highly recommend. Thank you once again Alejandra. Our hearts are full!

We originally thought that we did not need a videographer for our wedding day, however, we are so happy we did away with that thought. The day truly becomes a blur and having these memories to relive whenever we want is something we are so grateful for. Alejandra is sweet, funny, and makes you feel so incredibly comfortable. Her work is impeccable and classic with an artist edge to it. She personalizes your video to your likes and ensures her clients happiness in every step of the process. I highly recommend This Charming Heart to everyone that I know getting married. Thank you, Alejandra!

Writing this review about 2 years after my wedding. This charming heart (originally Buho Studio) made the most amazing video of our wedding. I have to say that it is very touching to watch the short film! Over all the photos and other memories, we cherish the video the most! Amazing professionalism by the team during this crazy big Indian wedding. Even dealing with an injury the film maker continued to shoot! I definitely recommend!

What can I say? Alejandra was an absolute JOY to work with. From our first meeting, to our save-the-date video, to our big day- she was beyond professional and thorough. My husband and I are not comfortable in front of a camera (at all!)- so we were a bit nervous about the footage. Alejandra was not only able to make us feel comfortable, but the results were breathtaking. Some shots we didn't even realize she was filming. SO SPECIAL! One of the best decisions/vendors chosen for our wedding. Highly, highly recommend working with Alejandra. The memories she gave us will last forever.

It is impossible to express how grateful I am for Alejandra's contribution to our wedding day. Her video is so incredibly perfect! She managed to capture literally every little detail and did so in such a beautiful way. She is very very talented, easy going, and a very calming presence on an otherwise chaotic day. I cannot recommend This Charming Heart enough, definitely the best vendor choice I made during my wedding! We were very lucky to have found her.

If I could give Alejandra 10 stars I would. She is super talented yet so affordable. She literally captured every single precious moment a bride could ask for. I cried almost every time I watched my highlight video. She is so easy to work with and I honestly couldn’t be happier with my decision in choosing her to be my videographer. My sister has hired her for her wedding since her work is top of the line! This Charming Heart is the best!

I can't believe we ever considered NOT having a wedding video! After seeing Alejandra's work (and learning how reasonably priced she was!), we knew she was the right person to capture our wedding day. Alejandra was always extremely responsive and detail oriented, and very patient with my many emails and requests regarding our videos! I am so grateful that we have her beautiful documentation of our day. We will cherish it forever.

Choosing Alejandra to film our wedding was one of the best decisions we made throughout the entire process! She is so amazingly talented, and captured everything so perfectly. We feel so lucky to have these amazing videos and to be able to relive one of the best days of our lives.

I have seen the work of Buho Studio for a family member's wedding and we decided with my now husband to utilize their services for our wedding as well. Not only did they offer an affordable price, but they also offered an engagement photo shoot which resulted marvelously, and the quality for the price paid really will not disappoint you. Also of note, the team is patient, kind, creative, and they will work with your ideas and preferences. They are professionals and have great suggestions too. Their work for our engagement and wedding sessions were just phenomenal, they made our wedding video look like a Hollywood movie - yet not too corny for those who don't like it too lovey-dovey like us, but romantic enough to make you swoon :) I will definitely recommend Buho Studio to friends and family and we might even utilize their services when the next occasion presents itself! Thank you for everything!

For us, finding a videographer for our wedding that was the quality we hoped for and priced within our budget proved to be a challenge. When we came across Buho Studio, we were blown away by the sample videos we viewed and pleased to learn that the price was right! Alejandra captured our wedding day perfectly. When she sent us our final products (just one month after our wedding might I add), I could not stop watching our highlight video. My husband and I will cherish having these memories so beautifully preserved for the rest of our lives!

From the beginning she worked with us and our budget and listened to everything we wanted in the video. I saw her other work from The Knot website and immediately fell in love with how beautiful the vidoe clips turned out. The emails and calls were returned quickly and I knew she great at her job from the start. After getting the video, my husband and I were in complete awe of how wonderful of a job did she did capturing our favorite day!!! She pieced it together so perfectly, and we received so many compliments! I think I watched it 30 times by now (maybe more) and still shed a tear at how great the day was and how wonderful the video captured every bit of happiness and fun we had on our wedding day!

We are so glad we chose to have Alejandra film our wedding! She was incredible easy to work with, professional and accommodating. The final product just blew us away.

Choosing our videographer was one of the most difficult choices to make during the planning process. We wanted to make sure our video was perfect, capturing every delicate moment from start to finish. I couldn't be happier that we went with Buho Studio. Alejandra was amazing to work with - from the planning phases to the day of. Our sneak peak was ready immediately, and it was absolute perfection. The full length video captured every memory, and it was beautiful. I would recommend Buho Studio every time! Thank you!

I love our wedding video from Buho Studio and have watched it over and over! Buho studio caught some of the best/most intimate moments of our wedding day. Alejandra really listened to everything I wanted and genuinely cared. She is very responsible, prompt, and kind. She hurt her ankle right after the ceremony but continued to shoot our video in a wheelchair and brought several backup videographers for our huge wedding. My wedding coordinators stated she should win best vendor of the year award! Thanks for capturing the best day of my life and allowing me to relive the day through video!

Where do I start? If I could give more than 5 stars, Buho deserves it. There is nothing more scary than trusting someone to film the best/most important day of your life and capture every moment - this is exactly what Alejandra did AND more. My husband I and I are beyond happy with the videos that Alejandra captured for our wedding day and I have already recommended Buho to my upcoming friends for their weddings. Alejandra went above and beyond to create our "perfect" wedding video - she listened to the "style" that we had in mind and used music that matched our personalities. We not only used Alejandra for our wedding video but also worked together before the wedding to create a "first dance" video. My husband and I wanted to take some of the attention off of us dancing to our first dance and wanted to provide some entertainment for our guests as well so we had Alejandra film prior to the wedding and created a "first dance video". This was something unique and our guests loved it. Alejandra worked with us on getting this made in a short period of time and yet again made an amazing video that we played at our reception. After seeing how awesome our first dance video turned out, we decided to turn to Alejandra to help us with creating a slide show for our rehearsal dinner - she does it all! Literally anything that we needed help with, she was able to provide her services - all for HIGH quality, affordable and at a quick turn-around. I have no complaints. Working with Alejandra was phenomenal - she was extremely organized and her work was exceptional, not to mention she turns around the finished projects in lightening speed! Alejandra has a laid back personality and she's not afraid to be creative, fun and put you in position, which is exactly what my husband and I were looking for. I can't remember how we stumbled upon Buho Studios, but I thank my lucky stars that we did - hands down, Alejandra was a pure joy to work with and will definitely have my word of mouth marketing for her for all future weddings!

I can hardly believe that it is possible to get such tremendously talented people as photographers and videographers for such an affordable price. We were able to get so many interesting and unique photos thanks to the creativity shown by Buho Studio. They were wonderful to work with both before and on our wedding day. My wife and I could not recommend them highly enough. We've actually talked about how we need to come up with a reason to hire them again.

I found Buho Studio online and was so impressed with their work. I couldn't believe such high quality video could come from such an affordable team. WE COULD NOT BE HAPPIER! Alejandra was casual, friendly, flexible, accommodating. You can tell from her work online that she isn't just a wedding videographer - this woman is an artist. Her team was there for us every step of the way, from an engagement video shoot that was SO fun and special to photos and our beloved wedding video. We feel very lucky that we found Buho Studio, because there is no way every bride and groom get to feel this special on their wedding day! Logistically, she met every need we had, filming at different locations, travelling with us on the bus, running around inside and outside on a hot summer day, and even capturing our crazy family doing a surprise dance for us. Buho Studio will likely be the next big company in the Chicago videographer world, so I recommend you hire them before they are booked solid year round! The wedding video we received - both a short and long version - were expertly done, set to wonderful, special music, all speeches and audio were perfectly captured, and our friends and family look amazing on screen. This company is comprised of talented people who we are lucky to have met through this process!

Buho Studio met and exceeded all of our expectations! With Alejandra and Yuma as our videographers and Luis and Mary as our photographers, we ended up with an exceptional highlight video, full video and photos. They give amazing direction and clearly have a passion for their field. We ended up with a variety of pictures and video shots. We couldn't believe how reasonable their prices are considering the level of talent and high quality product. Not only was everything amazing, but we received all the photos and videos within a few weeks!!! My husband and I both said we wish we could work with Buho Studio again. If you need more convincing, their work speaks for itself: check out their videos and photos on their website. We are so happy we went with Buho Studio! They're the best!!! We could not recommend them enough!

If you're looking for the best look no further. Buho Studio did an amazing job with capturing our video! They were really nice to deal with, very accommodating and they tried to make sure that they gave us the product that we were asking for. Alejandra and Sam were great and artistic videographers, they made sure to get the shots they needed while also not getting in the way on the day of the wedding. I don’t have words of how happy I am with the final product (received it a week after our wedding) ! The video was so creative, thoughtful, cinematic and the music was great! I did lots of research on different videographers and I’m so happy that we choose Buho. Thank you for giving us such an amazing wedding day video!

Alejandra was EXCELLENT. The quality of her work along with her attention to detail was excellent. She did an amazing job with our video. The editing was excellent and beyond professional. She is easy to work with. She was onetime and also delivered our finished product on time. I definitely recommend Buho Studio!

my dream come true you did everything that i want to , i just loved the way you do everything you are so kind and professional , this was my dream wedding i truly recomend you

I've known Alejandra and worked with her in the past. She is the most dedicated person to her work and is without a doubt the best at what she does. She's been working hard at making her company grow ever since I can remember, and with time she only keeps getting better at it. She is probably one of the most reliable videographers in this field and her talent speaks for itself through the final outcome of every one of her videos. I would recommend her work to anyone, any day!

This has got to be one of the best photography firms on the planet. From the moment we got in touch with them to the moment we felt the need to share this experience with the world, the company have been nothing but incredible. They captured more than just our wedding, they captured our happiness and immortalized it. This was only possible due to the effort they made in getting to know us and our wedding guests quickly and very professionally. Buho studio have set a new standard in our estimate. They not only captured everything about us in a series of the most fantastic images we've ever had the fortune to own, but they've learnt what we cherish about each other caught every magic moment on camera without intruding. We were never forced into coming away from our agenda to meet theirs as we feared from horror stories of wedding photographers. Instead their artists blended into the background of the best day of my life and caught every memorable moment and every warm interaction between our friends and family.

Alejandra is such a sweetheart! She made our day way easier, she even helped us plan our day! I received my trailer and long video 5 days after the wedding, even before our pictures! I am absolutely in love with it! Her team was EXCELLENT, super professional and outgoing. I cry every time I watch our video! Definitely do yourself a favor and hire buho studio, you won't regret it!

I was struggling to find a videographer for my budget and that could match what I had in mind. When I first saw buho studios work I was so amazed and when I talked to Alejandra I knew she was right what I was looking for. She was with us the WHOLE day and it was like they were part of our family :D When we got the video we were so happy with final result, so cinematic and perfectly edited, I LOVE IT! oh and we got it SUPER fast, faster than you can imagine. Can't express how thankful we are that we found her. We couldn't be happier with the finished product! I highly recommend this company because they were very responsive, friendly, FAST and trustworthy.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Buho Studio. Alejandra is one of the most talented videographers we've worked with and is extremely accommodating and professional. She sincerely cares about her clients and takes the time to get to know their vision, as to ensure the final product is a true representation of the couple. Alejandra's work was absolutely AMAZING from start to finish and it was truly a pleasure and privilege to have her as my wedding videographer. The quality of her work and services are truly unparalleled and I am forever grateful to her for perfectly capturing my special day!

It was my future wife and my dream to marry in Chicago. Alejandra came highly recommended by friends of ours who simply couldnt extol her professionalism enough. The preperations and the day of the event where handled smoothly and without ado. I was very impressed by the whole experience and would not hesitate in recommending her very highly.

We first met Alejandra at our friends wedding, from our first meeting I knew she was going to do a phenomenal job! They were discrete about filming but at the same time captured everything we wanted! There’s no words of how happy we are with our videos! They are incredible! and we received them in only ONE week (when they she promised us a month). We would highly recommend Buho Studio to everyone, such an amazing job!

I was nervous trying to find the right videographer to capture all the details of my wedding. After I met with Alejandra I was so excited to have her capture my day. She understood everything I was looking for and the cinematic style I wanted. Alejandra is professional and creative and my video was everything I hoped for. I'm so happy to share it with friends and family and always have it to remember all of our favorite moments! Thanks Buho Studio!

Had the absolute pleasure of working with Buho Studios for my wedding a few months back. Nothing but kind words to say about them. Super professional and very open to our own input. Our wedding video and pictures came out amazing thanks to them

Alejandra is truely a professional. She cares about the final product, pays attention to detail and helped me and my team further our vision. I've worked with her now on three seperate projects, one of which we had to go film abroad for and every time i've had a very pleasent experience with her. It gives me peace of mind to work with someone like her, and i'll continue to do so every chance i get.

Buho studio videography was recommended to us by our photographer and we had a wonderful experience at our wedding in September 2015. From the first contact, Alejandra was extremely quick to respond and flexible. On the day of the wedding, both Alejandra and Sam were very friendly and professional - almost invisible, but always at the right place in the right moment. They both kept busy during the whole night, filming all the events as well as exterior and interior shots to include in the video. We got both the highlights (5 min) and full video (1 hr) back in a very short time; in fact we were able to watch it on our honeymoon! The videos are beautiful and very professionally edited and have exceeded our expectations. We feel lucky that we had Buho studio do our videography and would recommend them to anyone.

Words cannot describe how wonderful our experience was working with Buho Studio. For starters, Alejandra and her second shooter were extremely personable and had so many wonderful ideas for shots, that even our photographer was using those ideas for his photos. We were blown away by how everything was brought together in the highlight video. In 3:18 min video, it seemed like every essential detail was captured and we were reliving that magical day. I can't describe that feeling, but it's a feeling I wish all newlyweds could experience. Now as for the main video... there were moments that brought us to tears multiple times. It was like being right there again. The point I'm trying to make here is that I highly recommend anyone to go with Buho Studio. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
