You'll be there for all of it. You won't see most of it.
Your guests' faces while you say your vows. The way your partner looks at you when you're not looking. The friend who teared up before the toast even started. Photos keep how it looked. A film keeps how it sounded, and how it felt.
Turn the sound on. The vows, the toasts and the laughter carry these films as much as the pictures do.

Your wedding shouldn't feel like a production.
We work quietly and watch more than we direct. You stay present with each other and your guests while we preserve the story as it happens.
A little direction when it helps, and room to be yourselves when it doesn't. Your family and friends come before staged shots, and your vows, your toasts and the natural sound of the day shape every film.
And one team is with you from the first call to the final film.
In their words
My husband (fiancé at the time) didn't understand the reason for a videographer… He didn't want it. I booked it anyway… When we received the final result he was over the moon happy.
What it feels like to work with us.
On the day
We stay quiet and close.
You stay with each other and your guests, not with a camera, while we catch what happens around you.
For years after
You relive it.
On anniversaries, and on ordinary nights when you want to hear everyone's voices again. Your films live in your own app, on your phone or your TV, ready to share with family wherever they are.
Every wedding keeps something different.
Some couples want their whole day as a film. Others want both sides of the moments that matter, every toast, or their ceremony and a film to share. Tell us about yours and we'll recommend the collection that fits.

Everything in Full Experience, plus the Documentary of your whole day (50 minutes or more), drone coverage, a teaser reel to share and priority delivery.
Full Experience
Everything in Signature, with a second videographer for both sides of the moments that matter, plus your Feature Film: 15 to 25 minutes, made to sit down and rewatch.
Signature

Essential
Your ceremony in full and a highlight film, for intimate or shorter weddings.
In every collection: pro audio, professional reception lighting, a full edit of your ceremony and your films in your own app.
Collections range from $1,800 to $4,400. Tell us about your day and we'll send availability and the full details of the one we'd recommend.
Couples who trusted us with their day.
During prep calls, David made sure all details, locations, audio, and lighting would be perfect yet unobtrusive for the big day. … They capture our loved ones' mannerisms, expressions, and the tremble in our voices during our vows.
David captures the best moments and all of their true emotions.
We used them for videography at my summer wedding and then again at my sister's wedding in October. … They were not overly pushy and sometimes we didn't even realize that they were there!

A note from David
I've spent more than 15 years filming weddings and stories, and I still lead the creative direction behind every film our team makes.
My favorite moments are usually the ones couples didn't know were happening around them. That's what we're there for.

About the studioBefore you reach out.
How much does a wedding film cost?
Collections range from $1,800 to $4,400, depending on the hours, the number of filmmakers and the films you want to keep. Tell us about your day and we'll recommend the one that fits.
We already have a photographer. Do we need a film too?
Photos and a film keep different things. Your photos hold how the day looked. Your film keeps how it sounded and how it moved: your vows, the toasts, the laughter and the voices of the people you love. We work quietly alongside your photographer through the day.
Do we need two videographers?
If you want both sides of the moments that matter, yes. While one films your ceremony from the front, the other catches your family's faces as you walk down the aisle. Full Experience and Legacy include two.
What's the difference between the highlight film, the Feature Film and the Documentary?
Your highlight film tells the story of the day in 4 to 8 minutes, depending on your collection, and it's the one you'll share. The Feature Film is a longer film of 15 to 25 minutes, easy to sit down and rewatch; it comes with Full Experience and Legacy, and you can add it to any collection. Legacy also includes the Documentary: your whole day as a film, 50 minutes or more. Every collection includes a full edit of your ceremony.
Will our vows and speeches sound clear?
Yes. Every collection includes pro audio: a lapel mic and a soundboard connection, so your vows and toasts are recorded at the source, not picked up from across the room.
What if our filmmaker can't make it?
Your day is covered. If your filmmaker can't be there, another filmmaker from our team, just as experienced, films your wedding. Backup coverage is guaranteed.
We're a little camera-shy. Is that a problem?
Not at all. We work quietly and give direction only when it helps, so you can stay with each other and your guests instead of performing for a camera.
How do we reserve our date?
A signed agreement and your first payment hold your date. Most couples pay half to book and half later; you can also spread it over three payments or pay in full, and Afterpay is available.
Can we add coverage later?
Yes. You can add hours, drone coverage, raw footage or an engagement session, or move up a collection as your plans come together.
Do you film outside DC, Maryland and Virginia?
Yes. We're based in Maryland and have filmed weddings in Delaware and Puerto Rico. Tell us where you're getting married and we'll confirm availability and any travel costs.
