About Us

Colton and Taylor are Video Producers based in Chicago that have been collaborating on creative visual storytelling for the past 8 years. They started working together in 2021, and they both developed an appreciation and passion for the amazing stories that came from their clients, specifically those in the education space. They decided to team up and focus their efforts on creating content for schools throughout the Chicagoland area.

Thus Ivy Lens was born...

​

Colton has the classic film school background. He went to Columbia College Chicago with a focus on Cinematography, and after graduation he fell into the world of creative marketing. 

 

Taylor has a more business centric background. He got his degree in Marketing/Advertising and worked in sales for several years after graduation. But the sales world did not scratch his creative itch, so he decided to turn his photo/video hobby into a full-time production career in 2020, and hasn't looked back since.
