    Beyond satisfied with our videos, pictures and experience!

    Jess and Alan are absolutely fantastic! From our first FaceTime meeting, engagement photos, venue walk through to the wedding day…. Everything was incredible! They are both kind, patient and do such an amazing job. Jess also went above and beyond to talk through our timeline for the day of to help determine times for photos and gave really helpful suggestions as well.

    We had their team as our photographer, videographer, and had a second photographer for 10 hours. Worth every single penny. We highly recommend Azazel Films and Photography!

    Azalea films & photography is the best!

    Jessica was integral in making our wedding a success! We had seen many success stories from her and knew immediately after our first call she was the photographer we wanted. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She was a calming force amongst the hustle and bustle of our big day! She does a great job keeping everyone in line so she can get the shots and everyone loved her! Plus the pictures simply speak for themselves - ✨ gorgeous ✨ We hope Jessica will be capturing many more moments in our future!

    If you're on the fence about having a videographer, hire Jessica!

    Jessica is incredible! She was recommended to me by a friend and we couldn't be happier with her videography. My husband and I both cried watching our highlight video, and were told by multiple friends and family that they did too! She is organized, responsive, and worked very well with our photographer. Cannot recommend her enough!

    Engagement Shoot

    Jessica is fantastic! She will be photographing our New Years wedding and from our first email exchange she’s been incredible responsive and informative. We had our engagement shoot last month and she had several ideas for poses, locations, and took her to me with each shot! We are so in love with our photos and cannot wait to see her great work at our wedding!

    Spooktacular Captured Wedding 🖤

    I had a little out of the box wedding- black dress, in a forest preserve, skeleton decor and even smoke bombs lol…. And Jessica ABSOLUTELY captured everything and more that I was envisioning for the photos! She was beyond accommodating, giving us hints + tips while we were posing as this had been our first professional photoshoot before. I can’t say enough great things about her! But you MUST book her! She will now be my go to girl for any and all special moments I have in my life. She’s my new found forever friend 🖤

    Jessica went above and beyond for my wedding. We’re we’re in constant communication the days leading up and she eased all of my planning anxiety. The pictures and video are everything I could have dreamed of.

    So kind and a great photographer!

    We were recommended by a coworker and had our initial meeting where Jessica explained everything in great detail! She was fantastic during our engagement photos and had a great turnaround time with them. We are SO excited to have her and her team to capture our day in 2023!

    Best experience & photographer ever!

    Jessica was amazing! She had shot and filmed a few friends weddings and I loved her aesthetic. My husband and I are both not people who are super comfortable in front of a camera and Jessica made it the best, quickest and fun process ever!! She was so easy to be around and we look back at our photos and smile with the happiest memories. I could not recommend her more!!!

    Hire azalea for your photo and video!

    My cousin and her friends used Azalea for their wedding videos and I remember loving their work. When Mike and I got engaged we stalked their instagram and website and loved the emotion in their video and their pictures were STUNNING. They had such a fresh and timeless feel to them. The lighting, texture, cleanliness of the photos is what sold us. We wanted real, authentic and genuine photos to capture the emotion of our day and BOY DID THEY DELIVER! Everyone who looked at our album was shook by the quality and said they should be in a magazine. The pure emotion they captured was so impressive. We have so much a variety of photos - some serious, fun, posed and un-posed from the day that we will truly cherish forever. Jess made the process so easy and wants the best for each of her brides/couples. She establishes herself as a partner with you, gives honest feedback, works with your needs and was SO easy to communicate. I can't tell you how happy we are with our photos! Highly recommend them to be apart of your vendor team.

    The most amazing experience!

    One of the things I was most worried about for my wedding day was having those special moments, like seeing my husband for the first time or having a moment with my dad before the ceremony, feel somehow "crowded" with vendors there. I cannot express how silly I was to worry - Jessica made me feel SO comfortable, and somehow managed to capture every single special moment of the day in a way that didn't feel intrusive. Not only was Azalea a seamless addition to the day, the final product was absolutely stunning. I cry every time I watch our beautiful highlight video - my husband and I will cherish it for the rest of our lives. If you're looking for a wedding videographer that will feel like a friend and capture your day beautifully, look no further.

    The Perfect Duo to Capture Your Perfect Day

    Working with Jessica and Alan for our wedding couldn't have been more of a breeze. From the start, they made the entire process less stressful, and were able to ask the right questions to nail exactly what we envisioned. This is RARE to come across in any profession, let alone videography. They had great ideas to make our wedding video much more personal than we could've imagined.

    Watching our wedding video for the first time after our big day immediately brought back every moment as if we were reliving it again. They truly captured the moments that mattered most, along with lighthearted, candid moments that reflected our personalities as a couple.

    We highly recommend Azalea Films and Photography for telling your story. They are extremely personable, and we couldn't have been luckier to have them be a part of our big day.

    Favorite Service from My Wedding Day

    I would highly recommend Azalea Films and Photography! Communication from the time of booking up through the wedding and receiving our videos was fantastic. I was never waiting on responses and always had my questions answered. When we got our videos back, they made me so incredibly happy and 100% captured the day. I still watch them all of the time because it helps me relive the day so perfectly. The quality of both the video and sound was also fantastic. I went from not being sure if I needed a videographer to ALWAYS recommending that couples make the investment because it is my favorite keepsake from our special day thanks to Azalea Film and Photography!

    Perfectly captured our story and wedding day

    My husband and I used Azalea Films for our Wedding Video and we are so happy we did! Jessica took the time to get to know us and our story before our big day. I love that we received footage of our entire ceremony and a highlight video! I seriously watch our highlight all the time! At first I wasn’t sure if we needed a wedding video, but after receiving our finish product, I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!! They perfectly captured our story and our beautiful wedding day!

    So worth it!!

    Jessica and Alan were an absolute pleasure to work with. They captured every moment of our day so beautifully and with great skill and attention to detail. I was a budget-consious bride and had considered skipping a videographer for my wedding. I am so happy that we ultimately decided to hire Azalea Films to film our wedding video. My husband and I cherish our videos, and watching them really allows us to relive the memories of such a special day that goes by way too quickly. Book Jessica and Alan! You will not regret it.

    Azalea is amazing!!

    Working with Jessica and Alan was a dream! They captured our special day so perfectly and created the most beautiful highlight video. Over a year later and we still cry! Not only were they super easy to work with, but they really care. My mom has since passed away and I will forever cherish the surprise video Jessica captured of my mom sending her wedding wishes. They made sure to capture the most precious moments and truly understand the families they work with. We plan to work with Azalea on many projects in the future and always look forward to seeing their newest work!

    Jessica Rachal from Azalea Films and Photography is amazing!

    We had the best experience working with Jessica on so many levels! If I was getting married all over again, I would hire her in a heartbeat to do our photography again! :)

    1. She was a rock star and traveled TWICE to the northern suburbs to reschedule our engagement photos that were rained out twice. It was over an hour drive for her just one way!

    2. She came all the way to Milwaukee, WI for our wedding day, which was over a 2 hour drive for her each way. She was there early and also recognized we were crunched for time. I was getting nervous about the timing, and she made it all happen with out getting flustered at all!

    3. She is overall a sweet, attentive, kind, and easy going person. She was not "over the top" or bossy. She is professional and extremely reasonable in price. She was an overall joy to work with!

    Amazing wedding photo/video services!

    Jessica is amazing! I received videography and photography services with Azalea for my wedding and they went above and beyond to make sure every moment was captured. We had a very large bridal party and Jessica was great with handling everyone. Would highly recommend using Azalea!

    Out of everyone that I hired for my wedding, I was happiest with Azalea! Jessica is an amazing photographer and her husband Alan took wonderful videos, he surprised us with footage of the tent we rented shot by a drone. Jessica was so professional and prepared during the planning process, we had a 45 minute conversation before my wedding to make sure we were on the same page. She asked questions I didn't even think about. She really made it so my actual wedding day ran smoothly.
    And the results of all their hard work...........perfection! We are obsessed with our highlight video and received SO many compliments. Jessica edited all our favorite pictures perfectly.
    When we met with them to receive our final product they had a surprise for us and gave us a USB with every picture and video they took, edited and unedited. And their prices are so reasonable for everything you get.
    I can't say it enough, I loved everything about this husband and wife duo! They are amazing, wonderful, professional, reasonably priced, and worth every penny!

    Hire the videographer. Ditch the throw-away favors, the edible glitter on your cake, or whatever else will not last past the day and HIRE THE VIDEOGRAPHER. At first, I was unsure about the need for videography. I had so many other things for which to budget! A few recently married friends suggested I find a way, so I reached out via Thumbtack for video quotes. Several vendors came back, but Jessica of Azalea was within budget, and had a true excitement about what she does in the industry. Her email communication was professional, and she was able to understand how/why someone may be weary of videography, even though that is her craft! I agreed to meet with her, and after that meeting, I couldn't imagine not having our day documented to relive as often as we wanted. As we approached the day, Jessica reached out to help iron out details, suggest start/end times, and even attended the rehearsal. She and her husband arrived early on our wedding day to capture details, and from that moment on they both were up and working the entire time, aside from a dinner break. I never saw them sit! They attempted to catch absolutely all of the day, through 12 hours of filming, all to make sure our videos were a beautiful summary of our wedding. I have suggested them to everyone I can, and describe them as "the hardest working vendor I hired." The effort showed - our incredible highlight video was ready about a month after the event, and our full length about 6 weeks later. Both are incredible. Jessica edited our song choice to fit perfectly - she even lined up the words to our first dance song to match us singing, and the ceremony string duo's performance to my entrance. The angles her and Alan shot from were great, she left in hilarious "outtake" type stuff because she got to know our personalities, and she shared a great shot from the video I wanted as a photograph. Jessica converted me from "meh, not needed" to "YES YOU NEED IT" regarding video.

    Jessica was great, really easy to work with. My husband and I loved our highlight video which turned out better than I could have imagined. We were on the fence about even having our wedding filmed but I'm really glad we decided to. I would highly recommend.

    Love love love Azalea Films! Having a traditional Indian wedding, there were many customs and rituals throughout the night. Jessica and Alan were able to capture every moment! Jess met with me months prior to the wedding to go over all the customs. They really take the time out to understand and follow clients requests. I received a trailer video as well as a longer video of the event, and both were beautifully recorded and edited. I would highly recommend them for any event!

    Wonderful couple to work with

    We hired Jessica and Alan for photography and videography and we’re so happy we did! Their work is wonderful and you can tell they love capturing photos and videos of such a special occasion for you to look back on.
