Kelly took the idea we had our heads and turned it into a reality that we get to keep forever. Perfection! We just can’t get over how perfectly her team was able to capture the day.
not a music video. nothing overly trendy.
JUST JOYFULLY YOU.
From your first call, we’ll begin planning how to tell your story. We'll get to know you, the people you consider family and the moments you'll want to share with your children and grandchildren one day.
During the wedding weekend, we'll find moments that enhance the overall narrative. Without formulas or heavy edits, we'll capture and produce a custom film you'll want to watch on repeat.

a personalized experience
why we're different
HOW we WORK and
To us, you're not just another number. You're a unique person with desires and fears. So instead of standard package pricing, templated email responses or cookie-cutter videos, we customize every aspect of your experience. In the end, there are a lot of people who can provide you with footage of your wedding day. With us, the experience of getting it will be entirely custom and personal!
01
a trusted resource
Trust is built over time, but it can be broken in seconds. That's why from our very first call, we follow through on our commitments. From open communication to honest advice, we want to be your sounding board and a team you come to rely on for more than videography.
02
a safe space
Feeling comfortable on camera requires a videography team you feel comfortable with off-camera. That's why we'll take the time to get to know you. We'll go to dinner or have drinks. We'll walk through the day and discuss any concerns. By the wedding day, we will feel like trusted confidants who just happen to have cameras in their hands.
03
a professional presence
As trained journalists, we know to give you personal space when you're trying to remain present in a moment. It's the reason we use the same cameras that your photographer uses. We use multiple angles versus being front and center. And we use long lenses when we film down the aisle so as to not intrude in your personal space or block your mom's view. Our objective, from the way we dress to the way we film, is to show respect for your traditions, spaces, and people.
04
a collaborative team
You've heard the phrase "Teamwork makes the dream work" and we can attest that it's totally true. We are team players 1000%. In fact, we seek out ways to be of assistance. From carrying the photographer's gear to helping your planner move a table or two, we'll do whatever we can to make your day come together. And because our relationships in the industry run deep and wide, we're always happy to connect you with other great wedding pros who can help make your dream a reality.

When we were looking for a videographer, it was most important to me that we hire someone whose work fit the style and tone that I was looking for. I wanted to work with someone who would create an authentic piece that would allow us to experience all of the emotions that we felt on our wedding day. I told my mom that if we were going to work with a videographer it had to be you! Your work gave and still gives me goosebumps, it is just that AMAZING. I loved how your films capture the joy of a wedding day while still featuring sentimental moments.
“I DIDN’T EVEN DEIGN TO LOOK AT OTHER VIDEOGRAPHERS”
Alicia and Tyler
Our wedding film captured exactly what we hoped it would and more. It perfectly represented our love story, connection with our family and friends, and all the fun that was had at our wedding. Kelly and her team are experienced, professional, personable, and an absolute joy to work with.
"We started looking for a videographer later than planned, but Kelly helped us navigate the process so efficiently. "
Kristin and Craig
Kelly and her team produce a piece that truly captures the love, joy, sentimental moments, unique energy and all the milestones of your day. Plus, the documentary edit we received in addition was more than I imagined it could be. To have all that raw footage of your day happening, in full, is incredible. To get to see all those moments you are thrilled to relive again and again - and the moments you missed. The best!
"To echo something one of our family members shared with us after seeing our wedding video – 'She clearly knows her medium'"
