Films rooted in warmth, nostalgia, and a deep authenticity that makes your film feel like a piece of family history—preserving what makes your story unlike anyone else’s.

I love being able to include old family home videos in your films 🥹

It reminds you that a wedding isn’t just about one day. It’s about the people who shaped you and everything that led you here.

Preserving not just your love story, but the personalities and relationships that have been a part of it along the way.

I’m always drawn to the “quieter” moments. The ones that seem small, but hold aaaall the personality!

When the whole family gets together, it never stays quiet for long!! Angela & Franco’s day was dripping with children, noise and chaos in all the best ways. Surrounded by SO MUCH LOVE, they were married in an intimate ceremony followed by a dinner party near their home.

This moment really got me.

Becky and David’s moms started the ceremony with a toast to the dads (their husbands), who couldn’t be there but whose presence was still very much felt. And somehow it didn’t feel super heavy, it just felt really genuine.

Honestly, I think it was the way they did it together. You can tell they’re actually close and the families just mesh and have each other’s backs. David’s mom forgetting to actually cheers them also helped 😅😂

Weddings take on the personality of the people in them.

One of the best parts of the job is getting to watch how that shows up every time.

Different people.�Different personalities.�Different energy in the room.

This one brought a whole lot of personality with it!!

Full filming coming soon!

Not your average optimistic “year-in-review” post 😮‍💨

This year was actually really fricken hard - for me and for my business. There were shifts the industry made for me, and shifts I had to make myself. But somewhere in all of it, I found my way back to why I fell in love with filming in the first place.

It reminded me that the pace of a wedding day shapes so much of how it’s remembered.

The moments that tend to stay with people are the quieter ones - a conversation that isn’t rushed, a giggle with your partner that’s allowed to linger, a timeline that lets the day breathe…all of it adds up to films that feels most like you.

That’s what I keep coming back to. And it’s what’s been pulling me further and further into a documentary approach! Paying attention to how the day moves, what the day needs, and how your personalities are able to show up because of it.

That’s the mindset I’m carrying forward, and one I’m genuinely SO excited to keep building on in 2026!!

Let’s tell some fun stories together, shall we?!

Putting the documentation back in “documentaries”…

I’ve spent the last year honing in on what I want my films to feel like moving forward and it all came back to one simple word: real

I want films that feel real and funny and nostalgic and show all the personalities of you and the people you love. I hope that translates and you’re able to connect in the stories to come…

Bri & Ryan’s full highlight film coming Wednesday!!!!
