What to Expect From Every Storyteller Package
Highlight Films + Event Edits
Story Session
We will set aside time prior to your wedding day to get to know you and collect additional content to ensure that your final wedding film is uniquely yours. Not only does a Story Session allow you to get more comfortable on camera, but it allows us make a wedding film that’s unique and meaningful by adding personal story elements, ranging from informal interviews to footage of your favorite shared activities!
Complete Coverage
All of our Storyteller packages include a full day of coverage, starting with single-day events. This helps us to tell your story in a more complete way.
Pro Audio
Using industry leading audio equipment allows us to capture the sounds that will bring back the most important memories for years to come.
Creative Curating to Match You
Our Highlight films are the main offering for our Storyteller package. This video is the creative summary of your day and the favorite of all our Storyteller options. We include licensed music to create the emotional soundscape and pull from a deep bag of cinematic tricks to tell your story in the way it needs to be told.
Easy online delivery
We deliver using a custom online gallery. This allows you to view your films in the highest quality possible on the most number of devices. They can be shared with friends and family and downloaded for safekeeping, while offering an online backup for years.
Fan Favorite: Engagement Session
We believe this takes your story to the next level and really makes it your own. Prior to the wedding day this session gives us the chance to get to know each other and connect. This tends to get our couples more comfortable with working together on the wedding day, but also gives us some honest and beautiful footage to use in the final wedding film or in a standalone Love Story video.

We want to tell your story in a cinematic way using natural audio of key moments throughout the day, a captivating soundtrack, and beautiful cinematography. We take a very documentary approach to filmmaking. While we do use some subtle posing at times, we prioritize real and natural moments.

We know that your wedding day can be stressful, we don't want to add to any stress, we want your big day to be fun and exciting. We film in a photo-journalistic style, meaning we aren't controlling and we don't like to force things on the day. We aren't big on stiff, unnatural posing, but we may offer some direction during certain times during the Creative Session.

Absolutely not! First and foremost, I have immense respect for the marriage arrangement, and I wouldn't dare show up to your wedding looking like a slob. My rule of thumb is: If I get caught in the background of a photo, I want to blend in with the guests. - And we're discreet with our equipment as well.
-
We pride ourselves on how well we work alongside photographers. Before your wedding day even starts we begin game-planning how best to shoot different events at your wedding. Both photography and filmmaking are all about finding great lighting, locations, moments, and emotions. We and your photographers are always on the lookout for all of those to make sure that your photos are stunning and your film is beautiful.

About Our Booking Retainer
Our service starts well before the wedding day
Because Weddings are once-in-a-lifetime live events that don't get a "take two" if something goes wrong, we begin with a pre-production process.
We research the venues to determine filming logistics. This includes reviewing ceremony site photos, photos, and videos from previous weddings, visiting the venue location to find the best camera angles and lighting for your wedding ceremony, and internet connectivity for live streaming. We use this info to determine which equipment is right for your wedding.
Every wedding is different and we prepare accordingly. It's not uncommon for commercial video shoots to "location scout" areas before production starts to prevent costly re-shoots. You don't have the luxury of "re-shoots" for your wedding, that's why we take the responsibility of filming your wedding seriously.
We communicate with your vendors prior to the wedding. We research your photographer's photos and their way of working to collaborate on a game plan for filming your wedding without hiccups. We nail down the technical aspects of lighting and audio with your venue contact and your DJ/band to make sure you and your VIPs giving toasts look and sound like a million bucks.
We reserve our team of editors for your wedding. Because many weddings often occur around the same general time or season, this allows us to begin editing quickly and efficiently.
