Why Choose Mirar

We’re a local Chicago wedding videography team crafting cinematic films that feel personal and true. We take time to get to know you as a couple – your personalities, what’s most important to you, and the vibe you envision for your wedding film.

Our cinematography blends story-driven, documentary moments with artful composition, full-day coverage, clean audio of vows and toasts, drone footage, so your film looks stunning and still feels like you.

We strive for a balance in every film: refined yet lively, elegant yet emotional.

What sets up apart?

We’ve filmed weddings at many of Chicago’s most iconic venues – from elegant downtown ballrooms to chic loft spaces and historic. Our experience in the Chicagoland area means we know how to navigate the city, utilize each venue’s best features, and even plan for Chicago’s variable weather and lighting.
We scout the best spots for romantic shots (imagine a sunset moment with the skyline in the background) and come prepared with backup plans to ensure your wedding film shines, no matter the setting.
Our familiarity with local venues and vendors helps the day run smoothly, and we love infusing a bit of that Chicago character into your film – be it a glimpse of the skyline, the L train, or the unique architecture that sets your venue apart.
No two love stories are the same. We take time to get to know you as a couple – your personalities, what’s most important to you, and the vibe you envision for your wedding film. This allows us to tailor our cinematography to reflect your unique story and style. Whether your wedding is an intimate elopement or a grand black-tie affair, we adapt our approach to suit you.
From the candid moments to the music selection and editing pace, every choice is made with your story in mind. The end result is a film that doesn’t feel generic, but rather feels like you – capturing the chemistry between you two and the atmosphere you created on your day.
From our first meeting to the final delivery of your films, you’ll find that we’re extremely professional, organized, and easy to work with. We know weddings can be stressful, so we make the videography part a seamless (even fun!) experience. On the day, we coordinate smoothly with your photographer and planner so that all important moments are covered without any fuss.
Our team is friendly and unobtrusive – many couples tell us they barely even noticed the cameras, yet we “captured everything”. (One bride noted that our team blended in like guests, which is exactly our aim). We dress appropriately, show up early, and are prepared for anything. You can enjoy your day confidently knowing that we won’t miss a moment and we won’t interfere in moments, either.
After the wedding, we keep you informed on post-production progress and deliver on the timeline we promise. Our commitment to customer service and our passion for what we do have earned us heartfelt thank-yous from clients – and we are honored to be entrusted with preserving these memories.
