Frequently Asked Questions
Do you film everything yourself?
Yes - I intentionally film most weddings solo. Over the years, I’ve found that a smaller, more thoughtful presence allows me to blend into your day and capture genuine, unscripted moments with more intimacy and less distraction.
Unlike photography, where two shooters are often essential to catch simultaneous moments, cinematic storytelling is more fluid. My workflow is designed to be efficient, quiet, and complete without needing a large crew. It’s part of what makes the films feel honest - and the experience feel effortless. When a second creative is needed (for multiple locations or guest counts above ~175), I bring in a trusted collaborator to complement the coverage. This can be added to any collection for an additional fee, ensuring we maintain seamless coverage without overstaffing your day.
Organized Documentary Edits -
Long-form, chaptered films for those who want a timeless archive of their day’s key moments. This piece captures your ceremony, toasts, first dances, and grand exit using natural audio, delivered clean and uninterrupted.
Designed to complement your cinematic film, it’s not for show, it’s for safekeeping.
Additional chapters (such as getting ready, parent dances, etc.) may be added upon request.
Adventure Session -
A relaxed, unstructured shoot in the days before or after your wedding - perfect for mountain overlooks, lakeside walks, or quiet time away from the crowd. This session is filmed with the same care and style as your wedding day and is seamlessly woven into your highlight film to deepen the story and reflect more of your connection beyond the timeline. Preferably scheduled on a weekday.
When do we get our film?
The editing process is deeply intentional, and I treat each film like a piece of art — not content. Most couples receive their full film within 10–14 weeks, depending on the season.
If you’d like something sooner, I offer a 1-minute teaser film delivered within 7 days as an add-on.
Do you travel for weddings?
Yes - frequently. While I’m based near Lake Tahoe, I take on a limited number of destination weddings each year across the U.S. and abroad.
All travel is custom-quoted based on the location and timeline. Travel for Tahoe-area weddings is always included.
What’s your booking process like?
It’s intentionally simple:
1. We connect over a quick call to make sure it’s a good creative and personal fit.
2. If we move forward, I’ll send over a digital proposal with package options and a custom link to your contract.
3. A 50% retainer secures your date — and from there, we begin shaping your film around your story.
Can we customize a package?
Absolutely. Every wedding is different, and I build with flexibility. If there’s something specific you have in mind — extra events, travel, or multi-day coverage — let’s talk and tailor something that fits.
