Meet Leo!
I started I Do Video in 2012, in hope to see what a hobby can one day become. After few weddings I quickly learned that this hobby was a true passion. Over the years, not only my enjoyment has grown, but the quality of work has grown along with it. As my brand has grown, I have taken the opportunity to bring on additional videographers that share my passion and talent, in hope to offer a wedding video solution to all customers on their big day!.
Leo Gerardi - Owner
Growing up, I always had a passion for videography. I took every opportunity to pull out a camcorder and capture a moment. After graduating from Illinois State University, I began a career in digital marketing, while still taking advantage of every OPPORTUNITY to grow my videography skills.
After gaining enough experience and upgrading my equipment, I have become lucky enough to turn my hobby into a part-time career. However this career isn't all about making money. With a separate full-time job, I am lucky enough to not have to depend on videography income, which gives me the opportunity to offer affordable services to fit the budget of all newlyweds. I enjoy the work that I do and I beleive it shows in the wedding videos I produce. I will always view videography as a hobby and beleive that a wedding video is a gift that every newlywed should get.

Leo was incredible throughout our wedding day! It truly shows in the work he does. Leo was so attentive and kind throughout those hectic wedding day moments, keeping things in line and capturing everything possible. We are SO truly blessed to have had Leo be a part of our wedding. Leo was professional, personable, and was able to capture every sweet moment of one of the biggest days in a person's life. We could not be happier we went with I Do Video by Leo. He has created the most beautiful memory of our wedding day!

BEST DECISION EVER! I did a lot of research on videographers for our wedding and landed on Leo because he is affordable and produces quality videos! I interview him on the phone to make sure he was a great fit and I was blown away by the time he spent explaining his process and how it will all work! We had Leo himself do our wedding! He arrived right on time and was so pleasant to work with! He was there throughout the day to the very end and caught all the memories so beautifully! He is very discrete and does not interrupt the moment with the camera! He dressed professionally and worked so well with our photographer! He was very responsive via email and worked with us to make our videos incredible memories that will last a lifetime! The amount of edited videos and also raw shots you receive are amazing! I cried when I watched all our videos they are so beautiful! He transports you right back to your wedding day! Leo is amazing and a one of a kind videographer! PICK HIM FOR YOUR WEDDING!!!

The best in the business. There is no better choice in the industry for recording and creating lasting memories than Leo's videography. He was our absolute favorite vendor to work with and our favorite images from the day were ones that he captured. In 2020 he will have the honor of shooting the third "Clark Sister" wedding, there is no better recommendation or referral out there than that of a sister and our 2016 and 2019 wedding videos were absolute magic.

Leo was amazing. He was a true professional and knew how to get things done. In some of his reviews I have read that you don't even notice he is there most of the time, I thought that would be impossible since hello, it's someone with a video camera, but I was so wrong. If he wasn't directly in front of me filming something I really forgot he was there most of the time. He was on time delivering all the final products and the quality is amazing. Leo is definitely worth the investment! I only got married 3 months ago and when I re-watched the video there were already so many things I had forgotten.

Having a videographer was very important to us when we began planning our wedding. We did research on several other companies and not one came close to the quality Leo provides his couples. He was a DREAM to work with! Hiring Leo was one of the greatest decisions we made! He answered a million emails/questions from the both of us! Leo was able to modify packages for us to fit exactly what we wanted. Leo handled our very large (400 guests) as one shooter (multiple cameras). The day went by so fast, but Leo was there to capture every moment! We have watched all of the videos he has supplied us with several times already and we were just married in March! This is such a special thing to have and we will cherish it for years to come! We Highly recommend booking Leo for your wedding!!! You will not regret it one bit! There are not enough words to express how happy we are with the outcome of all our wedding footage!
