My films lean cinematic and romantic, a bit dark and moody, with skin tones that still look like you. You'll get a little guidance when it helps, but mostly I stay out of the way and pay attention.
I've spent the last five to six years at weddings, and I've photographed or filmed more than 100 of them. What I care about most is the stuff nobody planned: your dad tearing up before he walks you out, your friends losing it during the toast, the quiet minute you two get alone.
A few weddings I've filmed. Press play, sound on.
Both include 8 hours of coverage and a cinematic wedding film. The difference is whose voices you want in it.
$2,450
For couples who want to hear the vows and speeches again.
A cinematic film built around the real audio from your day: your vows, the ceremony, and the speeches and toasts. It's the version where you get to relive what was actually said, not just what it looked like.
$2,950
For couples who want to hear from the people who love them.
Everything in Enhanced Audio, plus interviews with the two of you, your parents, your wedding party, or close family. I weave those conversations through the film so it plays more like a short documentary, personal and specific to you.
Wedding films typically have two of us shooting, so one can stay with you while the other catches everyone else.
The ceremony is filmed on multiple cameras, so the big moments are caught from more than one angle and nothing hinges on a single shot.
Standard coverage is 8 hours, which comfortably covers getting ready through the reception for most days.
Meta glasses, first-person · $250
Point-of-view clips shot on Meta glasses. A fun, in-the-moment layer on top of the film, not a replacement for it.
iPhone social content · $50 / hour
Casual, quick clips shot on iPhone that are easy to post. Supplemental to the film, not a replacement.
