About

Being a Visionary is more than being a videographer or a DJ. At DG Visionaries, we are artistic creatives, passionate storytellers, and industry innovators. It takes vision to create unforgettable experiences. And it takes the magic of a Visionary to turn your dream into reality! We go to work every day to create and capture magical moments in the extraordinary story of your life.

Enhance Your Experience

After completing my undergrad at Ball State University I noticed a severe lack of businesses in the creative industry that cared about their client's vision just as much as their own vision.

Thus, DG Visionaries was born. We believe in utilizing our tools, resources, creativity, and professional experience to help people just like you turn their visions into reality through sight and sound.

No event is too big or too small, and we've worked with dozens of clients and couples across Indiana and beyond on various projects including weddings and corporate videos. Our team of Visionaries think outside the box in order to deliver a final product that can be remembered for decades to come. That's the Visionary way.
