Working with TLIC was like a tale of two vendors. Our initial meetings and the planning phase were awesome. The owners were exceptionally friendly, supportive, and expressed confi...
dence that they understood our vision. The photographs and videos TLIC took at our wedding were also well-done.
The problems started after the wedding. We found out that TLIC utilizes AI heavily. The first hint was when they sent our sneak preview photos and one of them was laughably bad; clearly no human had set eyes on it in the process of selecting the photos and sending them to us. We subsequently found out they use AI in other areas as well, particularly communication with their staff and customers, which created more problems (see below).
A few months later, when we received our wedding video, it was drastically different than what we had requested. When we asked the owners about it, we were informed that a lack of communication between ownership and those who edited it meant our vision never reached the editors so it was just their cookie-cutter version. Our requested edits took months and several iterations, all while TLIC staff and ownership were not very responsive with emails. When we finally requested a sit-down zoom meeting to explain what we wanted in person rather than over email to avoid further communication mistakes, the owner did not show up. To TLIC’s credit, we did finally get all the content we were promised and were satisfied, but the path to get there was frustrating.
In sum, the staff (especially the owners) are very nice and remained so even during the phase of difficult communication, and the photos we received are fine. But the communication issues were frustrating. We also did not like their heavy reliance on AI, though that might not be a dealbreaker for some customers.
TLIC and Chris were wonderful to work with, and very professional. Our videographers were attentive and went above and beyond throughout our entire day, to make sure not one aspect...
of it was missed. Chris did a wonderful job of helping prepare everything for our wedding, and helped us get organized and on track with all of the things we needed (even unrelated to photo/video). I would highly recommend this company for their professionalism, communication, and organization!
The TLIC team was amazing to work with from start to finish. They were extremely responsive and always accommodating to our requests. From the planning calls to the actual day-of t...
he team always went above and beyond. Chris even stayed until our last dance even though he was scheduled to leave hours prior. We are beyond thrilled with TLIC, thank you so much!
From the start of booking TLIC they’re incredibly easy to work with. Kellie is so so helpful every step of the way. She is also very responsive to emails and always has an answer f...
or you! Braden was my videographer on wedding day and he was AMAZING. He was so fun, made us feel so comfortable and relaxed. You’ll be lucky to have Braden & Kellie on your team!
The TLIC crew were incredible to work with. We enjoyed talking through all of the details with Kellie during the planning process. She was incredibly organized and helpful. Jaime a...
nd Logan were our videographers on our wedding day and they were outstanding with capturing all of our big moments! They were so patient with every age group and worked very well with all of the other vendors. We would highly recommend TLIC for your videography needs!
My first experience with TLIC was capturing my brother and sister-in-law's beautiful wedding. My fiancé and I knew the next day that we needed them to capture our beautiful day. Ch...
ris and his team were so helpful through every aspect of the planning process all the way through to the end of the night singing Country Roads in the middle of all our favorite people on the dance floor.
Looking back on that day, I think what I enjoyed most of all was that I barely new our vendor team was there in the best way possible. Our whole day from beginning to end felt like giant celebration of our love. What it did not feel like was having to pose in front of a camera all day. When we were taking the some of the more posed shots, they made sure everyone felt comfortable and confident in front of the camera. Chris and his team blended in beautifully to the background while simultaneously capturing the most epic shots. We can’t wait to see the magic his editing team creates so that we get to relive our favorite day forever and ever. So many of our friends and family commented on how awesome our vendor team was and we couldn’t agree more!
John and I cannot recommend TLIC Media enough. I truly wish I could give them 10 stars!
TLIC Media is phenomenal! We DIYed a lot of our wedding, but it was important for us to have quality photographs and videos. TLIC provided high quality service for an affordable pr...
ice.
Before the big day, Kellie assured two nervous brides with her warmth and competence. She helped us figure out our wedding schedule, even before we had a day-of coordinator.
We were impressed from the moment we met with Olivia for our engagement photos. We were both feeling shy in front of the camera, but she knew exactly how to direct my wife and I to avoid cherry blossom crowds and give us beautiful sunset pictures.
TLIC was with us for every moment of our 3-day Indian fusion LGBTQ+ ceremony, from the Sangeet to the reception to the pool party. During our wedding weekend, Chris guided and accompanied us through all of the events. He even helped our 15-year-old ring bearer with his tie. Him and his team were incredibly personable and fun to have as vendors and guests at our wedding.
TLIC did a great job filming staged couples and family photos, as well as candid moments. Every time we look at our wedding photos and watch our wedding video, we are blown away by how they capture the essence of the weekend and we can’t stop smiling.
If you’re looking for gorgeous photography and videography, unique perspectives, and professional work from start to finish, look no farther than TLIC!
TLIC video was absolutely amazing to work with!! They were so responsive and spent a lot of time getting to know us as a couple before the wedding date. The day of the wedding, the...
y hyped us up and made the whole process fun! So many people came up to us and said “Chris was seriously the best!”
They even send you the video once it’s drafted for you to modify if needed. And the video was PERFECT! They captured every moment. It was truly a fairytale. I highly recommend using TLIC
TLIC was so great for our video service before and on our special day. Kellie was so kind and easy to worth with from all the check-ins, planning templates and video chats beforeha...
nd. On the day of Chris made everything feel and seem so seamless and fun. Highly highly recommend TLIC!
We love TLIC!! They were so fun and made the experience so enjoyable. Everyone kept saying they were everywhere and got all the best content. Definitely recommend!
TLIC was the BEST photo/video team I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with for my wedding. I had a very specific vision for my special day and the DELIVERED 1000x over! Working ...
with Kellie was as dreamless as I could’ve imagined! She was very attentive, high energy, and always listened to our vision and what we wanted. She checked in even after the planning phase was done and continued to support us, which I appreciated so much! I can’t recommend TLIC enough and anyone that I know getting married, I am giving them the information to this video/photo company! I can’t wait to see the final results with my wedding photos and video , but I know it’ll be amazing because the professionalism, energy, and care that my team (Chris - lead videographer, Olivia - photographer) had for my wedding and wedding party was absolutely amazing!
We had TLIC do the videography for our wedding and they did an absolutely phenomenal job. From the planning stages, including multiple virtual meetings and templates for the day-- ...
TLIC made sure our wedding was captured in full. On the day of the wedding the videography team seamlessly added to our day by both hyping up the wedding party throughout different parts of the day and blending seamlessly to capture key details of each moment. Finally, TLIC's edit for our highlight reel was absolute perfection. We literally had not a single edit. It truly captured the essence of our entire day and served as phenomenal part of our thank you cards. Thank you TLIC for both being a part of our wedding day and capturing what the day meant to us.
TLIC provided us with amazing video service. They met with us a half a dozen times before the day to get the timeline, shot list, and overall feel of our video. They really were co...
mmitted to giving us us videos that we loved. Kellie and Chris went above and beyond to make us feel like we were the only couple they were working with. Our first meeting with them they just chatted with us about our story as a couple which was helpful for later on when other people or companies asked for it. After that we had many discussions about which of the other videos from their portfolio we liked and what elements. On the day, our two videographers especially the lead videographer Jaime, made sure they were involved in every aspect of the wedding day and worked well with the other vendors to coordinate capturing the venue, events and emotion. Once the videos were done they allowed us edits in case we had favorite moments they captured that we wanted to put in before both the highlight and full feature were released. We absolutely love the videos!! It was so great to see the day play out since we couldn't be everywhere all at once and it tells the full story! Grandparents who weren't able to attend felt like they were there and didn't miss a thing!
We are so grateful to Chris, Jaime, and the TLIC team for their masterful videography of the day, live-streaming the ceremony, and my favorite: their drone! We booked TLIC as part...
of a package through our venue, Ceresville Mansion in Frederick MD. Chris brings unlimited energy and positivity to the whole process, his team is very engaged, and you can tell they love storytelling about our special day! They even share extras, like wedding timeline templates, social media tricks, and license media so it can be put on YouTube. Thanks so much Chris and TLIC!
100% would recommend TLIC Media for your photography and videography needs!!! They made us feel heard, appreciated, and loved throughout our process booking with them. From congrat...
ulations texts, to phone calls, to emails, and more, they made sure we felt special while planning our wedding. In addition to their customer service being top notch, their photos and videos lived up to the hype, and more. From the moment of booking with them, you become a part of their family. They are organized, professional, and fun to be around. I am in LOVE with our photos and videos from our wedding, and can't stop staring at them! Thank you Chris, Kellie, Olivia, Drew, Jamie, and everyone else that helped make our day as special as it was!
There are not enough words to describe how much I would recommend TLIC. We had the privilege of working with Chris and without him our dream day would not have been the same. There...
is not other videographer out there that will give you the service (time, details, footage) that Chris and his team give. There is a great team working at TLIC and you always get a friendly face and a quick response. We purchased the video + photo package with Chris and went with a recommended photographer, which was also one of the best decisions we made! Find you a videographer that will belt Backstreet Boys with you! All we can say is we love, love, love Chris and TLIC!
Stop your search for a wedding videographer right here. Seriously. TLIC is as good as it gets. Not only will they go above and beyond to create the wedding video(s) of your dreams,...
but they're incredible people who you WANT to spend time with, both during the planning leading up to the wedding and during the wedding day itself. Chris and Co. are personable, fun, accommodating, professional, talented -- the list is endless. I honestly can't say enough good things about them. HIRE THEM! You won't regret it.
Why should you trust me?? From Day 1 of the planning process, I told my now-wife that the No. 1 thing I want vendor-wise is a video team. The importance of not only having your big day captured, but having it captured exactly how you envisioned, can't be overstated. Thanks to Chris and his team, we now have dozens of videos and hours of footage that we can (and have ... and will) continue to watch forever. You literally can't put a price on that.
If you’re looking for amazing, personalized wedding videos with a stress-free experience from start to finish look no further, Chris and TLIC Media are your answer. Originally, we ...
were sure if we were going to get a videographer but hiring TLIC was one of the best decisions we ever made. Being able to relive our day through photos is one thing but having our videos took it to a whole other level. Then when you consider Chris’s eye and attention to detail, TLIC really gives you something extra special. Chris and his team gave us videos that really picked out all the right details and they really are magical. After we met with him the first time to the final delivery of our video’s, you could tell he was dedicated to capturing us and tailoring our videos to fit us, which is amazing. He was so attentive but you barley realized he was there during the day. On top of that, his videos aren’t cookie cutter, and you can easily see it when you look at different couples’ video’s. Overall, everything was just AMAZING and I highly recommend them.
I can’t put into words how perfectly Chris and his team captured our special day. Picking TLIC media as our videographer was easy. The videos they put together are incredible! They...
have multiple different package options you can choose from so there is something for everyone! They work with you to ensure they are capturing all the most meaningful and important parts of your day. Chris made me feel so comfortable. He is very professional, talented, kind, and fun! I would 100% recommend TLIC media!!
I did not want a videographer, but my MIL and FIL gifted it to us and I am so glad they did! Chris and his team were so thoughtful and professional throughout the entire experience...
. I am a planner and Chris is so diligent on staying in touch with you throughout your whole planning process. He follows up with every email in a timely manner and helps finalize every detail before the big day, so you have one less thing to worry about. We enjoyed our day spending time with Chris and his team!
Chris and everyone at TLIC Media are the absolute best of the best! We could not have asked for anyone better for our wedding. We were initially on the fence about doing a video, b...
ut they have quickly become my absolute favorite memory of that day. Firstly, everyone at TLIC loves love. They are all so excited to talk to us, learn about how we met and who we are, what we love about each other- then captured all of that on film. We had multiple phone and video conversations leading up to our event and they made sure we were always on the same page and knew what to expect. Chris and Steven were our videographers and they are both so good behind the camera. Neither myself nor my husband are people who enjoy being in front of the camera, but they made us feel incredibly comfortable and natural. I had mentioned doing more, what I called "artsy", shots of just the two of us. I was nervous because again, we are not naturals in front of a camera, but Chris and Steven directed us the whole time. Outside of the "major" events of a wedding, they also captured so many intimate and special moments we had together and with our friends and families. They both also collaborated in real-time with our photographers beautifully! Everyone was so professional and they worked together so that everyone could get the shots they envisioned for us. Every time we got to talk to Chris or Steven we were left laughing and happy, but they also blended into the day so seamlessly that sometimes we would forget they were there!
After the ceremony, Chris keeps up regular contact. Our videos were ready SO FAST. We got a tailor, a highlight video, and a feature film (which we added on later). The trailer was sent to us within a day, and all our videos were ready within a MONTH! The song choices were beautiful and the cuts are stunning. I still tear up a year later watching all our films, even though I've seen them over and over and over!
If you're on the fence about a videographer- do it!! These videos are how we can remember all the special details of our day. We could not recommend Chris, Steven, and TLIC Media any more highly, they do incredible work that speaks for itself
Chris and his team were an absolute dream!! I was hesitant to have a videographer for our wedding at all, but I couldn’t be more thankful we had him there on our wedding day! He ma...
de the entire process very easy and truly put in an amazing effort to get to know my husband and I as a couple and made us feel very comfortable. We are still so blown away by the footage he captured and love reminiscing on the best day of our lives!
Chris and his team were amazing! Due to Covid drastically reducing our wedding size a few weeks before our day, we had to scramble to find a company that could stream for us. I am ...
so glad that we found TLIC. Chris was amazingly responsive and captured all of the moments we wanted. The highlight film they created was the perfect summary of our day. (it makes me tear up every time I watch it). I would absolutely recommend this company for any film needs you have.
Chris and Lexy were with us from the first moments getting ready to the final moments as we said goodnight to our guests- Chris was at my getting ready location and Lexy was with m...
y husband. They then seamlessly joined together to capture every part of the wedding ceremony and reception. It means the world that they were dedicated to spending the day with us and not looking at the clock. Very personable, super easy to communicate with, and listened to what we wanted. There were everywhere but never in the way! So glad we made the decision to hire them as our wedding videographer to preserve the memory of our favorite day!
Ceremony at St. Paul's in Ellicott City, Maryland
Reception at the Belvedere in Baltimore, Maryland
TLIC media rocks!!!
When u hire TLIC, u don’t just get a magical video, u get an UNFORGETTABLE experience, utmost professionalism and a friendship that u are bound to cherish!!!!
...
Pre-wedding: Chris and Lexy invest the time in getting to know you and the vision u have for your big day and the wedding video! And if there are things u aren’t clear about, they are an awesome source of guidance and inspiration! Chris worked with my budget and allowed us to get the video of our dreams without emptying our wallets!
On wedding day: on time, worked perfectly well with our other vendors and sooo much fun to be around! one of the things that I didn’t realize is that you end up spending a large chunk of ur day with your videographer and photographer and so it helps immensely if they are fun, composed and calm!!! Posing for these guys was so much fun and easy, and it shows in our video! They captured ALL the big moments of the day and not once were they “in the way”!
Post wedding: when the flowers have dried and the dress is put away, one of the most beautiful ways to cherish the memories of your beautiful day is your wedding video. I definitely experienced a short spell of wedding blues and this video was the perfect way to wrap things up on a high note. The video blew our minds, it was the right amount of emotions, drama, fun and magic!! U feel like a movie star! I have watched my video over and over again and every time I watch it, I find something unique that speaks to the brilliance of TLIC’s editing, passion and brilliance! Also their reaction video idea is so unique and a great add-on that no one else offers!
Literally THE BEST VIDEOGRAPHER u can find in the NOVA area, if not the country :)!! BEST DECISION EVERR!!
Chris and Lexy were very professional and produced an amazing film. They are very talented and would highly recommend!
Listen. If you are reading this and considering hiring TLIC Media as your videographer, consider yourself BLESSED. You are about to make one of the best decisions you will ever mak...
e... and I do not say that lightly. Andre and I got married November 2018 and one of the GREATEST treasures we have in this life are the video memories Chris & Lexy captured of our wedding day. The highlight video Chris made STILL moves me to tears... and I've watched it a gagillion times! The way he captured the complete essence of our experience is beyond me. It is not only deep, moving, and emotional but fun, inspiring, and exhilarating. Strangers have told me they smiled and cried through the whole thing! Some have said it made them believe in love again. Everything we felt during that incredibly SPECIAL day we get to feel again every time we watch it. My husband and I are forever grateful for that. We never knew someone could capture meaningful beauty and love the way they did. TLIC Media is not just talented, they are anointed. They are truly gifted to do this work and they will treat your special day like it's their own. The quality, attention to detail, and dedication is unparalleled. They literally are the BEST and I will hire them for every special experience I want professionally captured on video for the rest of my life!
Chris and Lexi were extremely helpful in scheduling and capturing our wedding. You will not find someone who cares more about you as a couple about to step into one of the most imp...
ortant moments of your life. You can trust them not only to care, but to create a truly unique and beautiful rendering of your special day.
TLIC was awesome! Chris was communicative from the start and came up with an awesome concept for our highlight video. On the day of the wedding, he, Lexi and the entire team were p...
unctual, personable and professional. We were honored to have them capture our day and would highly recommend them to everyone.
Chris and TLIC Media were an absolute blessing to us. We hired TLIC Media after our original videographer canceled on us a month before our wedding (seriously), but quickly realize...
d that having to change videographers was a blessing in disguise. Chris and his team are incredibly kind, professional, communicative, as well as easy to work with. One of the things I most appreciated was that Chris took the time to get to know us before the wedding so that he could better portray us in our video- and it was worth it! Our video is so much more beautiful than we could have imagined. Hiring TLIC Media was definitely one of the best wedding planning decisions we made!
Chris and his team filmed our ceremony and right before I read my vows the microphone started getting all scratchy and then cut off! I was upset because my guests couldn't hear wha...
t was said for the rest of the ceremony (except for the front row maybe) but when he sent me the video you could hear everything loud and clear!!! My family was so happy that they were able to watch my ceremony and he even got it uploaded THE NEXT DAY!!! Making up for my DJ's mistake in a big way. Chris and his team were professional and friendly, if I was to do it again I would hire him 6 times over!
I'm glad that Chris got on the knot so more people can hire him to film their wedding!!! I have recommended TLIC Media to 3 of my friends that are getting married and will recommen...
d him to anyone. Chris filmed my wedding back in August at Glen Ellen and it was an awesome day! When I watched the video for the first time I had a mixture of emotion, I was sad, happy, and most of all impressed! I thought I didn't see him for most of the day and yet he has footage of everything!
Hire Chris. Period.
Zach and Sam were amazing! I was not sure at first because the owner Chris was not able to film our wedding (he was the one that talked to me about all my wedding details) but Zach...
and Sam were a delight! They were helpful to get my bridesmaids (who were all over the place!) where they needed to be and I couldn't be happier with the final highlight film!
Booking them was easily one of the best wedding decision my husband and I made!
My wife and I had really wanted a videographer at our wedding but quickly realized it was not possible with the cost. Chris from TLIC Media helped us by offering great affordable p...
ricing and we knew we could not pass it up. TLIC Media was extremely flexible with us as well because I had purchased their service as a gift to my now wife. Chris was able to keep things quiet and made for a great surprise for my now wife. As for the quality, you will not find any better. So many times watching the video back we were shocked at some of the shots Chris captured as we did not even realize he was there. All in all you will not find better service or quality then with TLIC Media.
Disclosure: I am the owner of TLIC Media - I had my wedding filmed by our team members Zach and Sam and I wanted to give them a shoutout for their professionalism, knowledge, and f...
un loving personality!
I wouldn't have trusted my wedding to anyone other than these guys! Our film (which I edited) turned out amazing and I never realized how valuable the raw footage was until I went through mine. I bawled like a baby the first time Lexy and I sat down to watch it together! So awesome to be able to do this for so many other couples and now in turn have our own that we can cherish for the rest of our lives!
Chris and Lexy really saved our wedding! The videographer we had double booked us and I frantically searched for anyone who could film our wedding. I didn't have high hopes that my...
video would turn out as well as with the first guy but Chris and Lexy blew us out of the water!! The video was even better than the other guys previous work and they were a pleasure to work with. Their joy is contagious and they even got my family out on the dance floor!
10 stars if I could! Thank you so much Chris and Lexy!
Chris and his team were professional and fun! I had such a good time at my wedding and will remember it forever thanks to the awesome highlight film he made for us. I recommend him...
to anyone who is getting married!
