You might already have the wedding planner. And you’ve definitely got the whole love of your life thing figured out.
You’ve spent months, maybe even years, planning this special experience – and it’s gonna knock your socks off.
And your brother making finger guns in the background as you guys have your fake “officially married” moment during your wedding rehearsal. Your bridesmaids screaming as you strut out in your wedding dress, pull your veil to the side, and show them just how good your butt looks. That ear-to-ear grin you both get as you’re slow-dancing to an emo song. You two walking around after your ceremony with strangers in the street, honking and waving out of sheer happiness for you.
I make wedding Films that capture ALLLLL the moments and feel like you.
I use my intuition, my empathy, and all the time I spend
getting to know you both to be in tune with who you are so I can make a creative wedding film that has your personality packed into every song, line of dialogue, and clip included.
IT’S GONNA FEEL REAL (CUZ IT IS) AND IT’S GONNA BE A FUCKING BOP.

"Em is nothing short of magic."
Jordan + Lyle
“She has the gift of storytelling and can have you in tears for a few seconds and smiles the next.”
Erick + Victoria

Cool Es
“She created a video that speaks truths to our weekend.”
Lizzie + Neal
“An incredible filmmaker and an even better human.”

For the couples looking to shoot their special day and nothing else.
You’ll do the getting hitched thing, I’ll do the shooting-every-second thing, it’ll be a hoot.

+ Coordination with your wedding planners
+ Second Videographer
Yep. That’s right. Travel costs are always included in the package price I share with you when I send over your proposal.
Like, real audio from your day and a customized, licensed soundtrack. (AKA the songs in your film will be fully legal for us to use.)
6 months after tying the knot, you’ll get your wedding video delivered in 4k for you to download, send to friends, and sob over.
You definitely remember huge chunks of your wedding day, but nothing can replace a wedding video.
"When we were looking for wedding videographers, I had a really hard time selling my husband on it. He was skeptical of having yet another camera on him, but Emily broke ALL expectations. Getting our video back was the most incredible feeling ever. Seeing ALL of your friends and family in different corners of a venue or enjoying themselves chatting with others, you just don’t get to witness all of that on your wedding day. It’s so special to have the speeches given by those you love most in the world all recorded for you to rewatch over and over again.”
Brittany + Eli
“Em captured every.single.one. of our emotions and was able to put them together in our wedding video.
We initially didn’t plan to have a wedding videographer because most of the content we saw was very staged and rigid. But when we came across Em, we loved the way she incorporated who each couple was in a very real way.
Also – Em is truly a ray of sunshine. She made us laugh and is gifted at making people feel so comfortable that at points, you forget the camera is around. Book the damn thing.”
Olivia + Corbyn
YOU FALL IN LOVE...
(With me. By this point, you should definitely be in love with each other.)
You watch a few of my wedding films and immediately get that tingly feeling that you’ve finally found your wedding videographer. So you head over to my Contact page.
YOU SAY HI
You start imagining all the funny things your friends will say and the footage we’ll get of you two clowning around, and that’s when you realize your wedding can’t go on without this. So you drop me a line and we schedule a discovery call.
WE GET ON
You tell me I’m the best thing since sliced bread. I tell you to kiss me right now, I’m so flattered. Then we chat deets, I send over your proposal and contract with prices and details. You sign and pay your deposit online.
WE GET ON EVEN MORE
You send me Harry Styles thirst traps. I follow your life on the Gram and get to know you virtually. One month before your wedding, I send over a questionnaire that asks you all kinds of things. (Favorite music. The vibe you’re envisioning. Who your hall passes would be. You know, the important stuff.)
WE GO ON A DOUBLE DATE
(For couples who book the Fat Bastard wedding video package!)
You and your forever person. Me and my Canon C70. We’ll all spend a glorious 2 hours together
as you two do your thing—whether that’s going on a hike, getting matching tattoos, or hanging at
home with your pets. This part of the creative film process is golden.
WE PARTY
Your wedding weekend rolls around and it’s sick as hell. You get married. I film everything. There’s definitely lots of laughing and sobbing involved.
I EDIT
I start by looking at every lick of footage, writing down every important thing I can remember.
(Like, “tequila donkey,” or “Mr. Brightside,” or “So-and-so hasn’t cried in 7 years.”) Then I
reread our IG DMs, your questionnaire, and anything else you’ve sent me. And then, I build a
story arc on my trusty whiteboard, find the bops that feel right, and start piecing together clips
like putting together a puzzle.
That way, your wedding film isn’t a highlight reel of your special days, it’s a story.
FINALLY, I LET THE CAT OUT OF THE BAG
And send you your wedding video. You guys get to relive all of the fun, weird, emotional parts of your experience exactly as they were over and over again. You show it to your friends and your family and the friends of your friends and anyone who will stand still long enough.
A thing that a bride’s sister said to reassure her that everything was going well, but also made everyone laugh, but also is just the perfect example of why documentary-style wedding videography is the best.
It captures you (and your friends and your family) being yourselves.
And when you watch it back, it hits you right in the heart because you get to experience your friends laughing in the background, your family reminiscing about how you two met, and your sister telling you that the crab cakes are a hit. Again. And again. And again. Nothing compares.
“The crab cakes are a hit. Everyone’s talking about the crab cakes.”
