Chicago, Illinois || September 6th, 2025


Jocelyn Spizman & Daniel Meek

There are few days in life that pass as quickly as your wedding day. A flurry of family and friends moving about, sharing laughs, and making memories - all your plans and designs, on display for your people - you and the love of your life, making a life-changing commitment.

When it’s all said and done, the flower arrangements will wilt. The guests will disperse. The last song will play.

You’re here because you want more than a cheesy, dated wedding film. You want a film that reflects and elevates who you truly are and is tailored to your deepest desires for your celebration.

From the Bottom of My Heart, Thank You for Seeing Value in My Work and Taking Interest.

Jocelyn and daniel,

I go to great lengths to ensure that each of my clients receives a one-of-a-kind, luxury-standard experience with a videography team that is both technically proficient and emotionally intelligent.

I film discreetly and let the day unfold, forgoing excessive direction in favor of a nonintrusive, calming presence and allowing the brilliance of each piece of your celebration to shine through.

Each film is edited in a distinct, energetic style to match the atmosphere of your particular wedding, as well as your musical and aesthetic tastes, ensuring that the first watch through leaves you saying: "this feels like us"


A Film That Will Leave You Speechless & An Experience That Helps You Feel Connected and at Ease

Philosophy

"Our jaws were to the floor the first time we watched it, and as I watch it again and again, it gives me butterflies...

From the moment you book with ESV to the day I hit export on your feature film, it is my dream, my mission, my purpose to see to it that you feel utterly blown away by your wedding film. It's what sets me apart as a filmmaker, and I can't get enough of seeing my couples shine.

"Choosing Elliott ...was one of the best decisions we made, and ended up being my favorite way we have our memories captured from the wedding." 

My team and I take great pride in delivering an experience that exceeds our clients' wildest expectations, time and time again. Set your expectations high, and get ready to be blown away!

Nothing makes me happier than the work I get to do every weekend. Whether I'm capturing candid conversations between your closest friends and family early in the morning + at your rehearsal dinner, wiping away tears while recording an emotional toast, or weaving around the dance floor to create a film that feels as incredible to watch as it felt to be there, I never feel more at home than when I have a camera in my hands. 

Thank you sincerely for seeing the passion I put into my work and taking interest. I don't take what I get to do lightly, and your interest means the world to me.

Here's to a beautiful weekend at the Chicago Winery and Cafe Brauer next Fall, shared with family and friends. I hope to be there to capture it!

Jocelyn & Daniel
