Testimonials
Laura & Josh
"We're so glad we used Munaco Pictures for our wedding! Tom was very professional, friendly, and responsive. On our wedding day he managed to capture all the special moments while remaining unobtrusive. He incorporated all our requests for the edited video so that it reflected exactly what we wanted, and he provided all the raw footage from the day. He produced a very high-quality livestream of the ceremony for guests who couldn't attend in person. Overall we think Munaco offers the best value of the wedding videographers in the Chicago market.”
