From the start, we had the goal of creating cinematic wedding films that our clients would love to watch over and over again. Our journalistic and cinematic approach highlights the little moments that build into unforgettable memories throughout the day. From seeing the bride get into the dress that she dreamed about for years to the expression of her mother's face as she walks down the aisle, we exist to capture those heartfelt moments. Each film is unique to the couple and is often narrated by the couple themselves or friends, by creatively editing sections of the day together. Every photo and film I create tells a unique story beneath the glossy imagery and that is something I think it is vitally important in my art.
Our desire to tell stories, not just provide coverage is what benefits our couples. We like to get to know our couples and tell a little bit about who they are. I feel this is lost by a lot of other cinematographers. It becomes more of a music video of the day than something that speaks volumes about a couple and their love for one another. Our stories are told through a mix of Super 8mm and HD depending on what medium fits the couple. We love couples that have a story to tell. Our ideal client incorporates their personalities into the wedding so we can convey a sense of who they are along with the emotions of the wedding day. We love anyone with a vintage inspired aesthetic. We look forward to having you view some of our recent films below to see if we are a fit.
