Kelly Sent on 03/12/2023High quality, professional, and timeless
Anna and Artem were fantastic to work with, and I highly recommend them to couples looking for a high quality, professional, and timeless wedding videographer. 312FILM knows exactly how to capture your day without making you feel too posed or unnatural. We were very happy with the quick turnaround on the trailer video and were wowed when we received our highlight video. The highlight video feels like a movie, and we couldn't believe how many details and clips were packed into the film. Anna and Artem captured every moment and wove the clips together to truly tell the story of our relationship and wedding day. Everything about 312FILM is top notch, from their professionalism, to the ease of working with Anna and Artem on the wedding day, to the film quality and final product. I would choose 312FILM again in a heartbeat! -

Ana & Artem with 312 Film were incredible to work with. They are passionate about their work and really invest in the emotion and sentiment of your wedding day. I cannot describe how many positive comments we had just on our "trailer" alone. Their work is outstanding! I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone who is looking for a videographer - they are the best of the best! -

In 2016, I saw a wedding video from a coworker and my mouth hung open - it was like a scene from a movie captured so beautifully! I knew then that I wanted Anna & Artem to capture my big day. Once we got engaged, I quickly reached out to secure them as videographers. Anna’s communication leading up to the big day is wonderful - she really puts you at ease. The day of the wedding, Anna & Artem did a great job of gathering footage of all different aspects of the entire wedding day. They do a great job of staying “hidden” - no bright lights, no cameras in your face. They really were more like super talented wedding guests! When we received the social media trailer video the day after the wedding, I was shocked - that 1 minute brought back all the feels and emotions and was captured like a movie, just like my coworker’s was in 2016. I knew then and I really know now that Anna & Artem were the best decision for videographers. Don’t miss out on having the best day of your life captured by Anna & Artem! -

When the costs of a wedding are racking up, videography can really feel like a splurge. I wanted to use a videographer ever since my cousins wedding. I STILL have memories of watching her wedding videos repeatedly and laughing with my family at some choice dance moves and great moments. It was so fun getting to relive that great night. So, when we got engaged, and I found out my fiancé also wanted a videographer, it was an easy sell. And 312 Film was an even easier choice. I had already loved their videos from looking at options in the area, and had them at the top of my list. When both my planner AND my photographer endorsed them, I knew it was meant to be. But as the wedding drew closer, I started to have a little buyer’s remorse. After all, it’s not something the guests would really get to enjoy (or so I thought) and it seemed like a selfish spend. But, as always, my planner was the voice of reason, assuring me that no one ever regretted getting a videographer. Not only did we not regret it, I am overwhelmed with gratitude for 312 Film. Because of the crazy COVID world we live in, we didn’t get to meet them until the wedding day. When Anna walked into the room, she had such a lovely energy and the most beautiful smile. I knew we’d made the right choice. They gracefully blended in throughout the whole day, thoughtfully capturing all the important moments without being pushy or obnoxious. They allowed our photographer to get her shots while also making sure to capture the action and emotion of the “moving moments”. Even their short “sneak peek” video made my heart so full and brought the biggest smiles to our faces. No one can stop talking about it! I can’t wait to have the highlight video to look back and remember the wonderful time we all had together. This duo puts so much creativity and heart into what they do, and I’m so lucky we got to work with them. -

Stefanie Sent on 03/02/2022Best videography team!
Anna and Artem are a power couple who provide the most special wedding videography i have seen. 312 Films has not only done the wedding for my husband and I but 3 of of my cousins weddings as well. We have don't just have our testimony but that of my cousins and each video is unique and catered to the couple they captured. Their aesthetic is incredible and they gather those intimate moments that you thought went unseen and the ones everyone sees so we can re watch for years to come. They have a system down and realize that you as the Bride or Groom are very busy and want to make sure they use their time with you wisely. I have nothing but best to say about this couple- they were amazing to work with and we LOVE our wedding video. Thank you again to 312FILM! -

Stephanie Sent on 08/08/2021Incredibly Talented! Beautiful Work!
We couldn't have imagined a more perfect videographer team than Anna and Artem to capture our wedding day. Choosing a wedding videographer was always an important decision and we’re so grateful we chose them! Due to COVID, we ended up having 2 weddings. A small backyard ceremony in September 2020 and a larger celebration in August 2021. There were a lot of twists and turns and they were such a dream to work with! They are so talented and truly capture the most beautiful video that we will cherish forever. They were so easy to work with and so kind throughout our long wedding journey! They were one of the best investments we made for our special day. Highly recommend! -

I cannot say enough amazing things about 312 Films. When I began following 312 Films on Instagram and I knew we had to have them for our wedding. Obviously their videos are incredible works of art, but Anna and Artem themselves are such hard working and sweet people. They were such a joy to be around on our wedding day.
I was a bit nervous about having a camera following us around all day, but that's not what this was at all. Anna and Artem are so talented they captured every moment so organically. They made us feel so comfortable took every ounce of nerves we had away.
Anna and Artem captured every moment of our day and within 24 hours we already had a 1 minute teaser video! After the 'wedding high' was over, receiving this video was such an incredible way to look back on our day. This teaser video captured every part of our day so purely, I still cry every time I watch it! I cannot wait for the full video! Thank you Anna and Artem!! I cannot thank you enough for capturing the most special day of our life so perfectly!!

Kristine Sent on 08/22/2019Effortless, beautiful, quality work
Anna and Artem are simply the best. I would 100% recommend them to anyone getting married in Chicago. They produce high quality, professional videos that are beautiful. I cannot say enough great things about the two of them. They were easily the nicest and most flexible vendors we hired. They blended in with the day effortlessly, yet captured every detail. Not only did they not miss a thing, the talent they have to edit and tell a story of the day is priceless. I could not ask for a more beautiful wedding video. Anna and Artem, thank you so much for creating videos we will cherish forever.

My husband and I cannot say enough amazing things about Anna and Artem! We were on the fence initially about investing in a videographer (wondering if the extra expense would be worth it) and it was the BEST decision we made for our wedding, by far. Both of them are so professional, calming and people you want around on your big day. You can tell they know what they're doing. Not to mention, their work is INCREDIBLE. We received an overwhelming amount of compliments on our wedding video from family and friends. They make your wedding video so personal and tailored to you as a couple, which makes it so incredibly special. No wedding video of theirs is just like the other, and the quality is outstanding. You can just tell they pour their hearts into what they do. We feel so lucky to have these "live" memories to watch forever. We could not recommend these two lovely people more -- if you are on the fence, you will NOT regret it! I promise you! -

Kimberly Sent on 07/07/2019Amazing team, high-quality wedding video!
I fell in love with 312 Film’s wedding videos the first time I visited their website. After meeting with Anya in person, there was no question that this was the perfect person to film my wedding day! Even before the big day, Anya & her husband, Artem, were in touch to make sure they were prepared for the day. On the day of our wedding, they were extremely professional and incredibly easy to work with. They had told me ahead of time that they needed 5-10 minutes at each photo spot. They knew exactly what shots they wanted to do and were quick and efficient to get them done with always a smile on their faces! Additionally, our church had strict rules for videographers and they were very respectful of those rules. They were never intrusive and were willing to help throughout the day wherever needed. We received our trailer video the morning after our wedding and it brought so much joy to my husband and I. Our wedding day was perfect but it all happens so fast. To be able to watch the trailer together, and send it to our friends and family, the next day was very special. We also received a highlight video and purchased the additional full wedding video. Each one was amazing quality with beautiful footage (including drone!) and they were always willing to make any adjustments that we asked. Best decision we made for our wedding! -

Loriann Sent on 02/15/2019Simply the BEST Videographer!!!
Anya and Artem are simply the BEST wedding videographer you can get in Chicago! They are so PROFESSIONAL, extremely kind, flexible and super nice to work with (which's very important when it comes to a stressful wedding day). The package we booked includes Aerial Shots and over 10 hours of coverage and multiple length footages, it is really helpful if you'd like to post the short ones on social media or share the entire wedding with guests who weren't able to make it. The videos they took for us look like coming out of a Hollywood movie (I couldn't stop watching the teaser/short video over and over). Our family and us are so happy about it. Anya and Artem even so kindly offred to put Chinese subtitles for our mandarin speaking grandparents. It's the BEST investment for our wedding. If you are looking for a videographer and video is an important part of your wedding day, FILM 312 is the one! Look no where ! -

Taylor Sent on 11/09/2018We LOVE 312, an invaluable investment!
We had an absolutely unbelievable experience working with 312Film. The video that we have of our wedding day is truly invaluable - breathtaking, thoughtful, sentimental, the perfect representation of us, our family, and the entire day... something we will treasure for a lifetime. We cannot speak highly enough of Anya and Artem - they are two of the nicest, most genuine people. They go above and beyond to capture all of the best moments while simultaneously providing a sense of comfort, calm, and guidance that is so helpful on your wedding day. This investment was worth every penny and we LOVE 312! -

Absolutely wonderful, the best decision.
You can stop searching now - this is your wedding videographer. We hyper-researched everything about our wedding and vendors, and we came across 312 Film when we saw they had filmed another wedding at our venue. We fell in love with their beautiful style and watched several of their videos and knew we had found exactly what we were looking for. They tell a beautiful love story through capturing moments throughout your special day. The most amazing thing is that when we re-watch the video, I am not just remembering what happened that day - I actually feel what I felt that day. I have no idea how they do that, but it is a wonderful gift (and something we have enjoyed returning to watch many, many times – long after the dress is boxed up, the photos have been viewed, and the honeymoon has been enjoyed). From the very first meeting with them, throughout the actual day, and through to the final delivery of the video, Anya and Artem were the kindest, most professional, and most engaging team that we could have hoped to work with. You can tell that they love what they do, they have great ideas and are helpful with guiding you, and they can capture the essence of the day perfectly. The fact that they even do a “next day” teaser video is incredible - we used it as a quick thank you message to our guests the next day. While we don’t plan on getting married again lol, we have actively looked for other projects to work with them again on to capture life moments. Do yourself a favor and hire them as your videographer – that will be one part of the wedding you won’t have to worry at all about. They are simply amazing at what they do. -
