Capturing your love story
The moments that matter most aren’t just seen—they’re felt. Your wedding isn’t just an event; it’s the beginning of a journey, a story that deserves to be told with artistry, emotion, and intention.

from me
To you.
Your wedding day will go by in a blur, but your film ensures you’ll never forget a thing. From the quiet moments of getting ready to the celebration on the dance floor, we capture it all—without making you feel like you’re in a production. Our approach is unobtrusive, letting you stay present while we craft a film that brings every emotion, every vow, and every unscripted moment back to life.

"It was everything we dreamed and more!"
Shortly after our wedding day, Jacob’s grandfather went to be with Jesus. We are so incredibly thankful for the photos and videos of his presence at our wedding. Now here we are, almost two years later, watching our video with Jacob’s grandmother as she prepares to enter into the kingdom of Heaven. We can’t tell you how incredible it is to have her voice captured on film.
"I am so thankful we went with Joel."
Having Joel capture our special day is something I will forever be grateful for! Each anniversary we look forward to watching our wedding video and his work is incredible!
"If you are on the fence hiring joel, just do it."
Having a wedding film team for us was a must to capture our special day. We go back regularly and still watch our wedding film and it brings us back to the special moments of our day. If you are on the fence of hiring Joel, just do it. You wont regret it and these are moments you will never get to go back and watch. Photos just don’t do the day justice as video will. Thanks, Joel!
"We seriously love our video so so much!"
"We are so happy we decided to have wedding film, we absolutely love our film and have watched it so many times! Joel was incredible to work with and did an amazing job making out day forever memorable!"

the big wedding day
An engagement film is a chance to document your journey, your connection, and the moments that make your relationship unique. Whether it’s a casual day in your favorite spot or a cinematic retelling of how you met, we craft a film that feels true to you.
If you’re choosing to exchange vows in a way that’s deeply personal—just the two of you or with a few loved ones—your story still deserves to be told. We specialize in capturing elopements with the same level of care and artistry as a full wedding day.
Your wedding day will go by in a blur, but your film ensures you’ll never forget a thing. From the quiet moments of getting ready to the celebration on the dance floor, we capture it all.

Do you require a deposit when booking?
We take on a limited number of weddings each year to ensure every couple gets the attention and quality they deserve. To officially lock in your wedding date, we require a $1,000 non-refundable deposit.
This deposit guarantees that your date is reserved exclusively for you, allowing us to begin the planning process and ensure everything is in place for your wedding film. The remaining balance will be due according to your contract terms.
How soon after the wedding will i get my film?
Great storytelling takes time. We carefully craft each wedding film to ensure it reflects the emotion, energy, and details of your day in the most cinematic way possible. Our typical turnaround time is 8-12 weeks.
We know waiting can be hard, but trust us—it’s worth it. Every edit is thoughtfully refined so that when you finally sit down to watch your film, it feels just as incredible as your wedding day.
Do you do elopements as well?
Yes, we do! Whether you're exchanging vows on a mountaintop, in the desert, or at a quiet courthouse, your story deserves to be told. We take the same cinematic, story-driven approach to elopements as we do to full wedding days—capturing the raw emotion, the intimate moments, and the unique setting that makes your day special.
Do you travel or only film in Oklahoma?
Absolutely! Whether you're getting married in your hometown, on a mountaintop, or across the world, we’re there to capture your story. We love filming in new locations and will travel wherever your wedding takes us.
All travel expenses will be included in your custom proposal, so there are no surprises—just a seamless experience focused on telling your story, no matter where it unfolds.
