    Spectacular and magical!

    Choosing Reel Life Cinema for our wedding day was one of the best decisions my wife and I could have made! Faviola and her team met our expectations and went even beyond in capturing all the precious and magical moments of our day! They were so pleasant, professional and fun to work with, really helped make the process smooth and easy going. We had plenty of opportunities to discuss exactly how and what we wanted them to focus on. It was a great feeling working with people who took the time to listen and get to know exactly how we wanted to envision our special day! When we saw the finished product it was like watching a fairy tale come to life on screen! If you want a magical experience with trained professionals who add a sprinkle of fun into the mix, RLC is the way to go! Definitely recommend RLC for any weddings and occasions!

    The best photographers and videographers around!

    My husband and I could not be happier that we found Reel Life Cinema! Our photographer, Ilva, and videographer, Chris, were so patient, helpful, and kind. We had so much fun working with them throughout our wedding day! Mercedes did a wonderful job with the photo booth. Our guests had SO much fun taking pictures and adding them to our album. Everything about our experience with Reel Life exceeded our expectations. Reel Life has the best prices around for the high quality experience and photo/video quality they produce. I would HIGHLY recommend Reel Life Cinema for your photography, videography, and photobooth needs! You will not regret it!

    Such an amazing experience!!

    Reel Life Cinema was so amazing to work with! On our wedding day, they went above and beyond in capturing each and every moment of our celebration and more! They offered many helpful suggestions during the planning process and were also so prompt in sending us our wedding film, which was very exciting. We were so amazed with our wedding film and have received many compliments from our family and friends. Thank you, Reel Life Cinema, for making our wedding day so special – we highly recommend them for all your photography and videography needs!

    Outstanding Photographer!

    Fernando is a truly gifted photographer, and he is EXCELLENT to work with! He has an eye for lighting, mood, background, facial expressions, and composition that create magical photos that bring the real spirit of the moment to life. He is also very flexible, friendly, and creative in working with you to get the perfect shot. I also note that he's a US military veteran, so the cherry on top is supporting a veteran-owned business.

    Great experience!

    I was pleased every step of the way while working with reellifecinema. In my initial call I had a lot of questions, I was nervous and really didn’t know what to expected. I thought I would give them my price range and they would convince me to stretch it.. this kept happening to me during wedding planning and I just figured it would happen again. Reellifecinema didn’t do this, they worked with me to get a plan that worked for us and were really committed to not going over our budget. We worked with 2 photographers and a videographer, all were amazing on our wedding day. They coordinated multiple locations, HUGE wedding parties and a winter wedding like pros. About 5 weeks later we received our photos and teaser trailer for our video (still awaiting our full video, this takes longer) we were so happy with the way they turned out as they perfectly captured our wedding day. They even helped me afterwards with my questions about how to download the photos too. Definitely recommend Reellifecinema. Thank you to Jaime, Fernando, Sam and Favi!

    Above and beyond our expectations.

    This company is professional and caring. They kept in touch with us as the wedding date approached. Fernando scheduled a consultation so he would understand exactly what we wanted. It was clear that they wanted it to be perfect for us, and it was. The video of my daughter's wedding is stunning and all the extra touches Fernado captured are amazing. The edits are perfect and show emence talent. We can't help but cry with joy as we watch it over and over. We wanted one thing edited out, due to personal reasons and they did it immediately without question. Go no further with your search for a videographer, you won't be sorry! Best money spent on the wedding right here.

    Reel Life Cinema's reply:

    Thank you so much, Susan. The wedding was so beautiful, it looked like something out of a dream. We love that you enjoy watching it over and over again. You have an amazing family. Thank you so much for choosing us in capturing such a beautiful moment in your family's history. Congrats to Haley and Andrew

    You have to book reel life cinema!

    We just got married this past weekend, and although we haven't seen anything yet, I felt the need to get an early review in while everything is fresh in my mind. I had the absolute honor and pleasure of working with Fernando and his assistant Luis as well as Jill the photographer. This team of professionals totally blew us away with their attention to detail, timing for pictures, and knowledge of the best location and lighting for pictures/video. While we were getting ready, I happened to notice Jill crouched down taking a very meticulous picture of my flowers along with scrabble pieces that she must have brought herself, and it made me cry. Her keen eye for capturing what others may see as insignificant, really blew me away. Fernando did the same! I would catch myself in thought reflecting on what was to come, and I would tear up, and almost every time, there was Fernando!! I'm telling you, this team of artists knew our every move, and we will forever be indebted to them for their skills and professionalism. From keeping us on schedule and posing us in the perfect light or angles, Jill, you truly have a talent like no other I've seen. Fernando, OMG! Between you and Jill, I don't know who burned the most calories that day, but the absolute endurance and stamina that you two possessed really caught the attention of us all. You have single-handedly made wedding photography and videography into a rare and desirable art form , and we are so happy and blessed to have found you and your company! I can't imagine our wedding going as smooth as it did without Fernando and Jill. They made us feel like the fairytale every girl dreams of, and this was the best decision we have ever made regarding our wedding. By the end of the night, we were sad to see them leave as they were practically family!! My advice to any couple planning a wedding : Book REEL LIFE CINEMA before these artists are picked up by Hollywood!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for capturing our day through your lens and portrayed with heart!

    Amazing Videographer/Photographer

    When I was looking for someone to do the video and photos for my wedding, I felt like there were so many options. I read reviews, and looked at examples, but when I came across Reel Life Cinema I knew I had found what I was looking for!
    Fernando and Favi took the time to set up everything right away, and helped give me ideas as to how and what I should include for my wedding. Since we were flying from out of state into Chicago, Fernando made great suggestions for everything.
    He had everything coordinated in the day to maximize my photographer and video. I knew Fernando was capturing everything from the smallest details, to the important I do's and the candid party moments.
    I am so glad I trusted Reel Life Cinema for such an important day in my life, and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to get high quality service.

    Favi, Fernando and Cuong, we can not thank you enough, The pictures are Amazing. The attention to detail, the professionalism, the passion and the hard work truly shows in the end. We could not be any happier. Somehow even on a cold, rainy, windy, cloudy, Chicago day, you braved the elements and made our pictures look amazing, simply stunning. You were fun to work with, you kept us laughing and smiling and your great personalities just kept us motivated for that next great shot. We are truly grateful and cant thank you enough. Keep up the great work. We will definitely be sending people your way.

    The Reel Life Cinema team was an absolute pleasure to work with. They were definitley the most enjoyable vendor to work with throughout my whole wedding planning experience. They asked all the right questions to create the most perfect wedding video. I can honestly say my highlight reel we received from Reel Life Cinema had EVERY family member and friend in complete tears. My husband and I have watched it on repeat and get the chills every single time. They captured every single important and special moment perfectly. We cannot thank Reel Life Cinema enough!! We will cherish our video FOREVER!!

    Reel Life Cinema did our wedding in Cabo San Lucas and we are glad we picked them. I can’t imagine anyone being better than them. They were extremely professional throughout the process and made sure they covered every single detail of what we wanted. They covered details that we didn’t even think of! They turned around the finished product extremely fast and it was incredible. The footage they captured was amazing, they went above and beyond to get shots that put our wedding video over the top! We are glad we decided to keep the drone option as that definitely took the video to the next level. If you are looking for someone to film your wedding these are your guys! They also recommended an amazing photographer. We did not have to worry about a thing come wedding day, they had it all covered.
