You’re in the right place if
You want a stellar wedding film that’s more than a collection of pretty shots, but truly tells the story of who you are and what your love is made of! A film that will always leave you with all the feels, that will make you laugh and cry and thank Jesus for the partner He’s given you – even when you watch it 50 years down the road.

The Experience
Just as every couple is unique, wedding films should be no exception. We weave together moments from the entire day, along with audio and music, to create a film that FEELS like you and is focused on your relationship with one another and with the Lord, while still capturing all of the beautiful details you’ve poured your heart into. Our films transcend time - when you watch them years down the road, you won’t simply remember how pretty your wedding was. You’ll be filled with the same joy and passion you exuded on your wedding day, and renewed gratitude and awe for your marriage.
We blend documentary and editorial styles so that you are both comfortable and confident. We love to let the day unfold naturally and hold space for you to genuinely experience the moments and emotions of your wedding day. When necessary, we offer gentle suggestions to capture things in the best light, all the while encouraging YOU to be present in the moment!

No. 03 | We actually care about you – we believe that there is no greater gift than being known and loved, and we want both for you. We spend time interceding in prayer for every couple we work with.

We’re firm believers that while a wedding lasts only a day, marriage lasts a lifetime. When all is said and done, there are only a few things you take with you from your wedding day. Your wedding film allows you to truly revisit all of the love and emotion in real-time, and in particular - the sound and movement - from your wedding.
Our films tell the story of your love, not just of your wedding. This is also why we deliver three films with every package - your highlight, your full ceremony, and your toasts - because 50 years down the road, those are all moments you will want to revisit!
