Client Reviews on LOUDBYTE
Feedback:
Working with Steve and Ton-Essa has been a creative and execution dream. We have worked on 3 different projects to highlight the consumer experience with the Unison HomeBuyer program. The vision to capture the moment, to the planning and execution consistently gave us the high quality and complete consumer story that we need. I cannot recommend them any higher.

Loudbyte/ Honey & Bride made my wedding day come to life every time I re-watched it. Whether it was the short film or the longer edits, both captured the day so beautifully that I am forever grateful that we hired them to be there with us on our wedding day. The short film is nothing short of a masterpiece! It's not just my husband and I that loved their work, when I posted my short video to my page, there was an overwhelming response about how amazing my videographers were!!

If you want a wedding film that will be talked about for eternity, then use LOUDBYTE!! Not only are their films amazing, but Steve & Ton-Essa are super fun and easy to work with, while also very professional. I had no worries going into our wedding day that the film would turn out better then we thought. And they didn't disappoint! They captured the whole night beautifully. We continue to receive compliments on our film, months after we posted it. You will be disappointed if you don't use them ;)

Loudbyte is top notch. Steve and Ton-Essa were the cinematographers for my brother and sister in law a few years ago. After seeing their production first-hand as a groomsman, it was a no-brainer for me to ask them to work my wedding. They make movies, not tacky, lame wedding videos. You should really check out their work. They capture the small details, and edit film seamlessly from one scene to the next. My brothers wedding was in Chicago, but I got married in Connecticut and it was not an issue for them to travel. We had two Facetime chats beforehand, and gave them an idea of what we wanted and they ran with it. They arrived the day before the wedding and got some great shots of the long island sound where the wedding venue was, and were able to really capture the scene. They take their work very seriously, which is what I imagine you would want from someone you're paying for. Their price was very reasonable, especially given they traveled halfway across the country for us. They are very creative and did not need much of a prompt from us. Also, they were not intrusive, and allowed us to enjoy the wedding while giving them the shots they need. Their drone shots were spectacular, and some of the stills they took are pretty awesome. Steve and Ton-Essa are very friendly. I highly recommend you choose them, you'll have a mini movie of your wedding day, and won't regret it at all.

Before even starting to speak to their easygoing, professional character I would like to say a few words about the artistry and talent you would be bringing to your wedding day if you are lucky enough to have Loudbyte as your wedding cinematographers. Because, really, that is what drove us to start a relationship with them in the first place. Allison and I are extremely detail oriented people and as such probably looked at all the wedding videographers and cinematographers in the Chicago, greater Illinois and Wisconsin areas before making our decision. Honestly, we simply could not find anything that even comes close. Steve and Ton-Essa have all the toys the very best wedding cinematographers possess (drones, a multitude of cameras, mics, lighting, etc.), but what sets them apart from everyone else is the superior quality of their wedding film. While most wedding videographers will capture decent HD footage and add a soundtrack, Loudbyte will envision, direct, capture and edit footage using all of their tools to seamlessly and masterfully create a true wedding FILM. I honestly think their work speaks for itself. Simply take a look at their video and audio choices, editing, timing and compare to whatever else is out there. You will be hard pressed to find anything else that even remotely compares. I think these two are not only the best videographers in the Illinois / Wisconsin area but for sure some of the very best in the COUNTRY. Seriously. I truly believe they are set to do great things in the future. But I would not be doing them justice witout saying a few words about their character, passion, work ethic and professionalism. I guess making films that are THAT good requires all of these traits. Steve and Ton-Essa initially met with us in order to get to know us a little better and discuss our wedding day plans and expectations. Even then, I was so impressed with Steve's ability to breakdown the wedding day into its various steps and predict how much time they would need for capturing everything on video. This helped us so much when we set out to plan our day's schedule. When I mentioned that they were passionate about their work, I really meant it: For our wedding, Steve and Ton-Essa travelled to Milwaukee a day early to explore the venue, source ideal spots for shooting and setting up their equipment. You will be hard pressed to find anyone, not only in the video industry, but in the wedding industry in general that goes to the lengths they do in order to ensure their clients receive the best service/product possible. Steve and Ton-Essa will meticulously plan every single detail of the wedding together with you, in order to make sure that their work meets the absolute highest standards they set for themselves!AND they are really really nice, easygoing and fun to work with!! Like many couples will tell you, getting a wedding cinematographer was the best decision we , too, ever made. However, choosing the right cinematographer is absolutely key. So, if you are planning a wedding in the Chicago or Milwaukee area... or anywhere else for that matter, I would recommend you look no further. Simply take a look at Loudbyte's work. See how good it is and rest assured that you are putting yourself in really great hands.

When looking for my wedding videographer, I went to Loudbyte's website and started watching all their films. I was captivated by each and every one. I didn't even know these people and I would get teary eyed after watching. The way that Loudbyte captures the wedding day, I just knew I had to work with them for mine. And that was one of the easiest and best decisions I made for my wedding. Besides being uber talented, Steve and Tones are the nicest people to work with. My fiancé and I met with them a few weeks beforehand to go over the timeline of the day, and one of the things they recommended to me was to write letters. So as most brides know, their is a lot to finish before the wedding and I completely ran out of time to write my cards until literally the night before the wedding at 1 in the morning. But, I am so glad I did because the way they captured the moment of my parents, sister, and husband, are special moments that I now while have forever. Steve and Tonessa showed up early, with smiles on and ready to go. I had so much fun filming with them while I was getting ready. Then throughout the day, they kept checking in to make sure the microphone was comfortable while at the same time, really caring about making sure they were capturing each moment perfectly. Their attention to detail and how much they really care about their work makes them so successful. They even stayed a little longer to capture some extra family dancing. When they told me my film was ready, I couldn't believe how fast they got it done. I for sure thought it would take a month or two longer. I was driving when it was released and had to pull over to watch it. And good thing I did, because I cried, I laughed, and I smiled...I was so happy all over again! They captured the day EVEN BETTER than I remember it! Our wedding filmed turned out even better than anything I imagined. I really feel they captured me and my husband and our families perfectly. I think I have personally watched it like 30 times. In addition, so many people called me to tell me they saw our wedding film and couldn't stop watching it ether. The rave reviews have been non stop. Our film is something I will truly cherish and treasure forever. Thank you again Loudbyte for your amazing artistic talent. You guys are the best!

Steve Gribben and Ton-Essa La'rocque are spectacular cinematographers. I've had the pleasure of working with them on several projects and they've always gone above and beyond. Most recently, we teamed up on a PSA project about Counterfeit Wedding Gowns and the piece was not only done in a very quick amount of time, it was done with vision and included elements I didn't even think would be in it. We've gotten nothing but amazing feedback on the piece and it never would have happened without Loudbyte helping to execute our vision they way they did. If you are a Bride or Groom and considering booking this company, wonder no more. Loudbyte isn't just your typical "videographer." They're CINEMATOGRAPHERS. Visionaries. Their talent is limitless and their work speaks for themselves. I cannot thank you enough Steve and Ton-Essa for your dedication to excellence on our most recent collaboration. Thank you a million times over!
