Wedding friends…SCAM ALERT 🚨
“you did not go over the Multiyear discount contingencies on the phonecall”
“No where in any conversation or email did "Frank" disclose that the contract we signed for 1 show was a multi-year contract.”
“not ONCE do the sales reps EVER mention a multi year contract.”
“This is THE WORST company to ever do work with.”
“They never gave a heads up to confirm that this was a multi”
“They've been harassing us for YEARS!
Overpriced scammers who will do anything they can to get your money.”
“a rep for ACS) starts spamming me with threatening emails saying I agreed to a multiyear contract and that if I didn't pay them she would send my company to collections. I reviewed all of my correspondence with Kelly and not once did either of us mention a multi year contract.”
“they slipped in a multi year contract without explaining to my wife and it wasn't even listed on the contract”
“you did not go over the Multiyear discount contingencies on the phonecall”
🤷♂️
Not much IG activity from me as of late due to my best friend going down with a spinal injury.
About a week ago, Griswold slipped 2 disks in his back and has been on meds + crate rest for 6 days now. He’s responding well to the meds but time will tell if surgery is required.
For those who know me, you know that Griswold is my entire world. This injury has been devastating to him, but unfortunately it’s been taking a toll on my mental health as well. The uncertainty of each day has my anxiety through the roof and unfortunately has been negatively affecting my workflow.
I’ve let most of our clients know via email, however, if you currently have a film due please be advised that during this difficult time, delivery times have been delayed by 2-3 weeks.
Thank you for your patience and if you have any questions or concerns please feel free to DM me or reach out to my cell @ 708-435-9773.
Another ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ review? But of course!

I will never get tired of reading reviews from our AMAZING clients 🤩
Here’s what Melissa had to say about her experience with our wedding videography team members, Tom (me!) & David.
Thank you SO MUCH for this review and for choosing Munaco Pictures to produce your wedding film 💜💜
Continuing today’s uploads with & Korak’s wedding film 🥳
This was such a fun one to capture & edit. We shot AND live-streamed their traditional Indian wedding ceremony earlier in the day, followed by a quick outfit change for the rest of their festivities.
It was interesting to edit, because with the different traditions/outfits, it was kind of like editing two weddings in one!
I also got to meet their adorable doggo, Cookie 🍪 and we even shot at their favorite local watering hole,
These are my kinda people! 🖤
Thanks so much for choosing Munaco Pictures to capture your celebration!
I haven’t been posting much to the Instagram machine lately, but that’s only because I’ve been so busy! Rest assured, I’m still here and Munaco Pictures still has 16 weddings left in 2022 before we crawl into our winter slumber 😴
Here’s a SAME DAY EDIT we produced for Ralph and Karen 2 weekends ago at /
This short highlight film of their wedding day was edited in real-time and presented to their wedding guests just 4.5 hours after they said “I do.”
The groom, Ralph, was quick to give us a glowing ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ review promptly after the event. You can read what he had to say at the end of the video!
Thank you Ralph and Karen for choosing us to capture and present your wedding day to your guests!
Closing out another busy weekend of weddings today w/ in Las Vegas 🥳
See you soon, friends! ✈️
Apparently it’s and I can’t let it go by without acknowledging the face that runs the place - - my best friend in the whole wide world, my baby boy, Griswold 🐾

Congratulations to newlyweds, Lyanna and David! Here’s a sneak peak of their wedding from this past weekend in Chicago 🤩
One of the highlights from last season was shooting at the Crown Plaza/historic Union Station in Indianapolis for Haley and David’s wedding. The building itself was a bit of a maze to navigate but once you get to where you’re gettin’ to, everything was a breeze - especially thanks to the wonderful planning/coordination by @christinaburtonevents 🫶 Thank you Haley and David for choosing Munaco Pictures to produce your wedding film 🥂
Most wedding films contain little to no footage of the actual wedding ceremony itself. Yes or yes? I hardly ever approach an edit the same way. When you edit 50-60 of these per year, it helps (me at least 🤷♂️) to dive into each edit a little differently. With this particular film for Christiana & Ralph, I decided to start with everything BUT the ceremony footage and quickly realized - “I’m running out of room here!” I also typically always know where I’m going to put the kiss shot, so a lot of times I’ll start with that, then work around it - either forward or backwards. There are no rules… “You can do anything here—the only prerequisite is that it makes you happy.” - Bob Ross . . . #editing #weddingfilm #weddingvideographer #adobepremiere #videoediting #weddingphotographer #weddingstyle #weddingceremony #chicagoweddingvideographer #chicagoweddingphotographer

Here’s a sneak peek at just one of the gorgeous weddings our team had the pleasure of capturing yesterday. Katie and George celebrated their marriage at the beautiful @gardensofwoodstock I spent much of my childhood in this part of IL so anytime I’m here it always feels special. City weddings are great and all, but it’s tough not to appreciate the beauty of a country wedding and all its glory, especially at venue like this 😍😍😍 Congratulations to these newlyweds and thank you for choosing Munaco Pictures to capture your special day! 🥂 . . . #weddingvideo #weddingfilm #chicagoweddingphotographer #chicagoweddingvideographer #weddingstyle #weddinginspiration #weddingplanning #2024bride #bridal #weddingrings #weddingdress
