Dillon & Brendon // Amara Resort Wedding {Sedona Wedding Videographer}

Dillon gave wedding videography to Brendon for a surprise wedding gift the day of the wedding. I felt like I should’ve jumped out of a giant cake in a sparkly dress or something. Truly, this was such an incredible day, and I’m so glad it’s documented so they can relive it over and over. Their vows were sweet, funny, and full of so much heart, and it was clear the friends and family love them like crazy. Loved shooting at Amara Resort and with the talented photographer, Monica Saaty.

Stephanie & Valerie // Red Agave Resort Wedding {Sedona Videographer}

Stephanie and Valerie decided less than 2 months before their wedding that they needed a wedding videographer. I’m so grateful they did and I’m so glad I was available. It was honor to capture their love and get to know these incredible women. The day I delivered their films, they called me in tears, and this means everything to me. When I spend hours in front of my computer creating wedding films, these are the phone calls that bring me motivation and remind me that I am capturing and creating art that will be watched for years and decades to come.

I absolutely love filming at Red Agave Resort in Sedona. It has incredible views and gives wedding guests such a beautiful Sedona experience with unbeatable sunsets. I also loved working alongside photographer Ryan Williams, planner Heart of Sedona Weddings, DJ DJ Frsh, and Sedona Beauty Team.

Faye & Keshav // Amara Resort {Sedona Wedding Videographer}

Faye and Keshav traveled to Sedona from NYC for their incredible wedding at Amara Resort. The wedding was a beautiful blending of family, culture, tradition and love. One of my favorite things about weddings is witnessing the outpouring of love and support from family and friends. Showing up with unconditional love is one of the best things we can do. Full film above, preview below.

Amanda & Paul // Red Agave Adventure Resort Sedona Wedding

Amanda and Paul’s wedding was my last for 2021. Amanda’s details were absolutely incredible. From her flower crown to the donuts, to the largest tent I’ve ever seen at a wedding (by far) and the gorgeous flowers climbing up the post that supported the tent. A highlight of the wedding was watching Amanda put on her flower crown for the first time and seeing her face light up as her wedding dreams came true.

Paul and Amanda had to delay their Sedona wedding for almost a year due to COVID. They did get married on their original date in an intimate ceremony with family back on the other side of the country. Their Sedona wedding celebration was just a year shy of their anniversary, and I believe it was also Amanda’s birthday! This was a great way to end my 2021 wedding season!

Jessica & Andy 2.0 // Red Agave Resort in Sedona

I filmed Jessica and Andy’s May the 4th elopement in 2020. COVID was going in full force and we didn’t know what the future would bring. Jessica and Andy are both residents living in different parts of the country. They had their wedding planned for May the 4th at Red Agave in Sedona. They decided not cancel, but to elope instead, because that date was extremely important to them, as was being married living so far apart. Their elopement was beautiful— click here to see.

When it became clear that most of their friends and family would not be able to attend, the plan was always to come back to Red Agave with their family and friends. They made it happen, and it was incredible. Jessica was finally able to get her dress which had been stuck overseas, and to my delight, Brutus, their fabulous dog came to walk down the aisle for the second time. Congrats you two!

R+J Flagstaff Forest Wedding {Flagstaff Wedding Videographer}

R and J had the most beautiful wedding at a rustic log cabin with incredible views of the San Francisco peaks. These two asked me to keep their wedding film private, a request I will always grant, but they happily said we could share their preview.

It is truly an honor to be part of such intimate, sacred celebrations. R had one of the most contagious laughs I’ve ever heard, and J, a good foot taller than R, was beaming the whole time. I love when I show up to the wedding, and the groom is acting like he won the jackpot.

I also loved that the 30 minute drive to this location was on over 10 miles of dirt road directly behind my house. The forests here are huge and unbroken. Northern Arizona is wonderful.

L'Auberge de Sedona Wedding//Jay + Brandon {Sedona Wedding Videographer}

Jay and Brandon were such a lovely couple. I met Brandon about an hour before the ceremony, and the first thing I noticed was his huge smile, and he wore that smile all day. He was obviously esctatic to be marrying Jay, and it was adorable. Soon after meeting Jay, we did a first look with her dad. She wrote him a letter, which he read aloud. It was so tender and made me cry. This family loves each other.

They were married up at the Spirit Song terrace and the reception that followed was fantastic. So much live music. Her good friend sang during cocktail hour and during the dance with her dad. She was competition for Adele. And Lucky Devils Band played the rest of the reception. I absolutely love shooting with the Lucky Devils Band. Live music brings the best vibes to weddings.

Congrats to this beautiful couple, and I recently heard they will be a party of 3 come fall. My heart is bursting!!

Kendra and Connor Agave of Sedona Wedding {Sedona Wedding Videographer}

Kendra and Connor are two incredible people. Kendra is a PA in New Mexico, and she has worked so hard, overcoming all sorts of obstacles, to get to where she is. Connor is a professional baseball player, and he too, has worked unbelievably hard to get to where he is. Being at their wedding, hearing speeches from their families, and listening to their vows over and over as I edited their film, was a good reminder that this life is such a gift. There is so much to be experienced and learned, and most of the time, we need to step up and take an active role to make our dreams come true.

Kendra incorporated so many beautiful details from her culture in her wedding and ceremony. Her mother sewed turquoise throughout her veil. Native American flute music floated over the the crowd. Sacred prayers were said to the north, south, east, and west. It truly was a sacred ceremony, and I am grateful I was there to capture it for their family to enjoy as the years go by.

Cammy and Trevor Whispering Oaks Ranch Moab Wedding {Flagstaff and Sedona Wedding videographer}

Trevor and Cammy were married at Whispering Oaks Ranch, located in the beautiful La Sal mountains above Moab, Utah. I’ve shot at this location many times, and it’s always a wonderful getaway from the scorching summer temps of Moab.

Trevor and Cammy met in high school and even went to a dance together, but didn’t truly find each other until college. The speeches at their wedding were fantastic. Cammy’s father, sister, and best friend spoke, along with Trevor’s best friend. All of them said meaningful, sweet things, and it really reaffirmed in my mind that wedding toasts provide some of the most intimate, tender moments. I firmly believe that we need to express our love, admiration, and support to our favorite people as often as we can, and a wedding is a great opportunity to do this. I realize it’s scary, but usually some of the best moments first have to put us out of our comfort zones.

Another great moment from this wedding was running into one of my previous brides and meeting her two babies!!

Congratulations Trevor and Cammy! Your love for each other is obvious and genuine, and I can’t wait to see what you do together. Preview above, full film below.

Jillian and Kyle Orchard Canyon on Oak Creek {Sedona and Flagstaff Wedding Videographer}

Jillian and Kyle’s wedding was at Orchard Canyon on Oak Creek. This venue is stunning. You drive right across Oak Creek and then climb a small hill to a beautiful hideaway. The sound of the creek is nearby, the cliffs of the canyon are visible everywhere, the architecture blends in, and the orchards are so inviting. We were there just before the blooms, and I’m dying to go back and see it in its spring glory. The food was so delicious and a majority of the produce was grown on site.

Jillian and Kyle were married on St. Patricks’ day. Kyle rocked some clover socks and the families proudly displayed their crests. The wedding seemed to be everything Jillian and Kyle wanted it to be. It was intimate and cozy. The bride and groom had time to visit with all of their guests and have time with Caitlyn Jennings and myself to get some quick, romantic shots on the grounds, without missing too much of cocktail hour.

Brides and grooms, there is no right way to do a wedding, as long as it’s what you want! Follow your heart!

Kimberly and Christian Agave of Sedona Wedding Film {Sedona Wedding Videographer}

Kimberly and Christian’s love story is one of my favorites yet. Of all the apartments in New York City, she chose the one right across from his. He landed his childhood dream job of an NYPD police officer. She moved to New York City and landed a job with Inside Edition as a news producer. Soon after she moved in, she knocked on the door across the hall to ask for a dress zip. It wasn’t Christian who answered, but his roommate (best man!). The roommate told Christian about the lively redhead next door. Christian soon met this fun, outgoing beautiful woman at the bar, and the rest is a total romantic comedy. Watch the full film below…he tells the story and it’s sooo good.

Kimberly has AZ roots, but the majority of guests traveled from great distances to beautiful Sedona. Agave of Sedona is a wonderful wedding venue. The ceremony location is jaw droopingly beautiful, and the ceremony room is just lovely with a great dance floor and plenty of room for mingling. Rain was in the forecast for pretty much the entire day, but the wedding gods kept the rain away for when it mattered. Not a drop fell during the ceremony, and clouds kept the sun at bay, making beautiful light for filming. We then headed out for a romantic session on the rocks and got some fantastic footage as we watched a storm roll in. We played for along as we dared until the clouds broke and we had to run to the car with umbrellas, laughing.

Kimberly and Christian then entered their reception with a choreographed first dance, which blew me away. They totally downplayed it ahead of time, saying they just had a few moves..yah right…it was incredible. The rest of the night was just about as ideal as a wedding can be… heart warming speeches with laughs and tears, toasts, and a huge dance party.

Oh, and one huge important detail…Kimberly wore her mother’s wedding dress. She had it altered at The Wedding Dresser, a dress altering shop in Brooklyn. They took away the 80s poofy sleeves and made it just absolutely gorgeous and modern. I loved it…watch for the first look with her mother in the film.

Edwin and Camilla Sorrel River Ranch Wedding {Sedona Wedding Videographer}

I have been waiting to film a wedding like Edwin’s and Camilla’s since I started this business. It combined many of my favorite things- adventure, romance, and a guest list of people absolutely stoked to be in the southwest. As most of the guests traveled from the other side of the world and took at least three flights to get to Moab, Edwin and Camilla wanted their guests to really experience Moab. The weekend started with a day of adventure. Their guests went canyoneering, rafting, UTV driving, and horseback riding (see adventure film above). Canyoneering with the guests was my favorite part of the weekend. This canyon was not an easy one, and we swam at least 5 times in freezing, stagnant water. I thought it quite incredible that Edwin and Camilla were willing to do this before their wedding day. I also got very good at getting my gear in and out of dry bags, and no cameras were harmed in the making.

The next day, their wedding day, was absolute elegant romance. They started the festivities off with a traditional tea ceremony. I loved how this gave them intimate time with their family before the wedding. The wedding ceremony and speeches were so full of heart and eloquent. The reception was complete with a live band, delicious food, and perhaps the most fun with a photo booth I’ve ever seen. Congratulations Camilla and Edwin!

Vicky and Nico Whispering Oaks Wedding {Sedona Wedding Videographer}

Vicky is a photographer and Nico customizes jeeps . They road tripped their jeep all the way from MIAMI and traded white sand beaches for mountains and red rock. I followed their Instagram as they made their journey. They camped on the beaches of Lake Powell, traveled the 66, and checked off National Parks. Their family and friends soon followed, some driving their jeeps too, others flying, mostly all from Miami, some from overseas. They had a beautiful wedding at Whispering Oaks. The reception was full of some of the best salsa dancing I’ve ever seen at a reception. The next day, we met up at Canyonlands to get footage in the red rocks and watch the sunset. I love day after sessions. Everyone is relaxed and the schedule doesn’t feel so tight. Thank you for trusting me to capture your incredible wedding.

Darian and Tanner's Moab Mountain Wedding {Sedona wedding videographer}

Darian and Tanner’s wedding was FUN. I noticed immediately that these two are incredibly likable and people LOVE them. Their bridesmaids and groomsmen were obviously close and were laughing, happy crying, and dancing the entire time. It was also clear that they were all 100% in support of this marriage, and that D&T care deeply for their friends. I watched Darian finish doing a friend’s hair (on her wedding day, a first!) and I watched Tanner help a friend get dressed. This couple looks out and cares for their people. I also loved that during the procession, every single groomsmen gave Tanner a massive hug. I also loved watching the couple with their own siblings and parents. There was a whole lotta of love, between a huge group of people, and that is special.

Joseph and Jessica Sedona Wedding at Cathedral Rock {Sedona and Flagstaff videographer}

My first wedding in Sedona, AZ!  It was incredible.  Joseph and Jessie were married at the base of Cathedral Rock with a few of their favorite people, and their beloved dog Lucy.  There were multiple standout moments.  After the first look, Lucy, Jessie's dog ran up to them, and JP bent down to pet Lucy and said "My two girls in white."  Heart melter.  During the ceremony, Jessica tried to kiss JP at the end of his vows, and the officiant stopped her.  It was so charming and hilarious (see film :)).  And then they fumbled JP's ring during the exchange (also see film), and their reaction was priceless.  And then when it was all said and done, Jessica blurted out "We did it" and gave JP a big high five.  I love couples that can totally relax on their wedding day and be 100% themselves.  And they really were.  

After the ceremony, they said goodbye to family, strapped on hiking shoes, and we headed to the top of the Cathedral Rock trail just in time for an unbelievable sunset.  This location was one of the most beautiful I have ever shot, and I already can't wait to go back.  I loved working with Sedona talent.  Caitlyn Jennings is an amazing photographer and so lovely to be around.  Christopher Bullock is a very talented MUA and hairstylist, and happens to be my next door neighbor, BFF from childhood.  We hadn't seen each other in a good 8 years, and we could not contain our excitement when we were reunited.  Moving to AZ has been good to me!  

I always create a preview for my clients, and I especially loved this one:

   I am so grateful for this wedding.  Moving is always hard, but I'm so lucky to have moved to another incredible place.  I am grateful for JP and Jessie, because they were such a fun couple to have as my first AZ couple.  I can't wait for more AZ weddings and AZ sunsets.
