Just one glance at that engagement ring gives you those tingly-excited goosebumps. You and your partner are so eager to plan, celebrate, and bring the vision you have for your day to life. Will there be a theme? Yes! Will I be on board to document every important detail of your story? Yes to that, too.

You might not have Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds on the red-carpet-like camera experience, but you wouldn’t call yourselves shy, either. A few jitters are normal. Even for the most extroverted among us. Mostly, though, you are counting down the days until it’s the day – and you can’t wait to capture this part of your love story on film.

Are you celebrating downtown, and hoping for a clip of you two dancing under the lights of your rooftop hotel? Yes! We’ll make that happen. But no matter the weather, location, or any circumstance that pops up, the most important thing to you is that you are marrying the love of your life. You trust me to capture the emotions of your day come rain, wind, mosquitoes, or finicky guests. Because I will.

You want to feel totally at ease and comfortable with your wedding videographer. As if you have a bonus best friend meets total professional at your side. Someone who understands and documents all the moments that matter to you, and fits in like family with your wedding party and vendors.

I saved the best for last because this one might be the most important: You want your wedding film to be a reflection of your love story as a couple. Where the two of you are the focal point. Your vows. Your letters to each other. Your emotions. Your love. That’s the story we’re telling with your film. Happy tears from guests, best-man speeches — all of those things will make their due appearance. But you two are the star leads and main event.
