+About Us
Filmmaking Masters
Passionate Heartfelt Videography.
Our wedding videos let couples relive their special day for years to come, sharing memories with loved ones on anniversaries, holidays, or whenever they want to reflect on their journey together.
Our service goes beyond your wedding day, providing a lifetime of memories in vivid audio and visual detail.
We always hear, "your wedding will be unforgettable!"...but neuroscience says otherwise! Neuroscience discovered that our brains are DESIGNED to FORGET things based on changes in our environment!
You ever forget where you placed your phone or car keys? My brother and I definitely have at random times. This also applies to all the little, but very heartfelt moments of your big once-in-a-lifetime wedding day.
You will need RELIABLE, EXPERIENCED, and TRUSTED wedding videographers who can capture it authentically, with a sweet and high-energy video style. We're full time dedicated wedding videographers that won't last minute toss your wedding date aside for a weekend sporting event, unplanned roadtrip, concert, etc. You'd be surprised how often this happens to engaged couples who choose the cheapest, in-experienced, or amateur videographers for their wedding date. Lack in investment can equal a lack in commitment for everyone involved.
If you've never been professionally filmed prior to your wedding day. This can be a bit of a new and weird experience, so we gotcha covered! We won't make you do anything you aren't comfortable with. You don't have to become a professional actress or actor. We insist that you enjoy the planned and natural essence of the day. As you and your guests enjoy your wedding day, we strive to elevate your celebration with heartfelt artistry that best reflects your family, friends, and yourselves!

Should I inquire?You're engaged and now have lots of questions! We want to help make the process as simple as we can. You don't want to spend your entire budget on random stuff that could have gone towards a higher quality videography experience. Even simply wanting to chat with us about the necessity of videography, and then deciding after our call how you want to prioritize it will go so far for you! So please do schedule a time to chat with us by inquiring through our website form!

Where is Filmmaking Masters based out of?We are based out of southeast Iowa, but travel all around the world to do weddings! We've filmed weddings in Europe, Southeast Asia, Tennessee, Minnesota, Nebraska, Illinois, Missouri, and of course all over Iowa! We'd love to do more weddings in places such as Las Vegas, Hawaii, California, New York, Florida, Utah, Colorado, Bali, India, Mexico and where ever else couples would love to take us!
-
Do you have a refund policy?For simplicities sake, the initial deposit is non-refundable. The final half of payment can be refunded. Inquire with us to setup a contract and see the full details of our refund policy prior to signing the contract with us.
-
Do you charge for travel?If you are getting married within the state of Iowa, or within 2 hours outside of Minneapolis, we do not have any travel fees! If you are getting married outside of the two locations mentioned above, we will need to chat about travel and what that could look like. We would love to be in alignment with your wedding day trajectory if possible.
-
Am I required to feed the videographers?Yes! All of our couples love taking care of their vendors just as much as the vendors are taking care of their couples! Having food provided during the reception is a necessity for happy relationships haha.
-
Do you have any hidden/unique costs?NOPE! We are fully transparent with what we charge in our contract agreements. If you have any questions at all about your contract. We will make sure to address it promptly!
-
How do you film weddings?With our videography style, we don't have to do a whole lot of planning because we shoot 99% candidly. We rely on the photographer and/or wedding planner timelines. Since we're working super closely with the photographer, they typically will have a shot list that we work around and we'll incorporate our own ideas throughout the day! We do this to not overcomplicate the planned events of the day and to also make sure our creative counterparts aren't more stressed than they might already be haha! We work extremely well alongside other wedding vendors with our style of filming. We are creating behind the scenes YouTube videos of different weddings we're at to give audible and visual context on how we work the day of. By watching our social media content on Instagram and Facebook. You'll notice that we are very laid back. We are very type B personalities which sounds bad, but this makes for an extremely easy going & relaxing time for everyone involved! Although we are very go with the flow personalities, we make sure to capture everything you're looking to have and so much more because we've filmed many weddings over the last decade. It's practically in our DNA to know where and when to be before moments even happen.
-
What about picking music for my highlight video?Due to lawsuits and strict commercial copyright laws, music for your wedding highlight video must be chosen from the music licensing websites that we are subscribed to. These websites license music for us to avoid any copyright lawsuits for ALL parties involved. Here are the music licensing websites we use! These songs are meant for just the edited highlight video. You can play whatever you want on your wedding day no problems!
-
Will there be a second videographer or team of videographers?If you book our Adventure or Treasure package, you'll get a second filmmaker on your wedding day to capture more video angles to better produce a better storytelling video. We can add additional filmmakers if you have room to do so for your special day!
-
How do we deliver your videos?We'll upload all your video files to a wedding USB flash drive and ship it out to your home address! We also deliver your files online as well.
-
Do you film destination weddings?Yes! We'd love to chat about your destination wedding plans! If we're in alignment, we'd love to film your beautiful union anywhere in the world.
-
Can you create & send CDs / DVDs?We do not create or send CDs/DVDs, but instead we send your footage in a USB flash drive alongside other goodies in the mail. Once you've received the footage, we recommend couples to go to a local Walgreens, Walmart, online service, etc. to create custom CDs/DVDs. If you prefer, you can also copy files onto multiple USB drives from your computer to give to family and friends that way as well! Lastly, we also offer additional USB copies for purchase too.
