Some love stories don’t just unfold — they travel.
Through time zones, through seasons, through every little moment that says, ‘I’m still here.’

Karson and Liam’s story stretched across continents — from her life in the States to his in Australia.

This trailer holds just a glimpse of that magic — the kind that comes from two people who’ve already weathered the distance, and chose each other over and over again. Cheers to you Karson & Liam 🥹🖤

Why Choose Super 8 for your Wedding Day?

I think it comes down to something pretty simple: we want to remember how moments actually felt.

Super 8 has a way of slowing everything down. Because you can’t endlessly shoot, review, or recreate a moment, there’s less temptation to perform for the camera. You just keep moving, stay present, and let things happen naturally.

And behind the camera, it forces me to do the same. To slow down, pay attention, and trust that the moments worth remembering don’t need to be manufactured.

that’s why Super 8 feels so different—it carries the feeling of how it was captured.

The grain, the movement, the flicker, the little imperfections—it all makes the footage feel lived-in. Like a memory rather than a production.

In a world that’s becoming increasingly digital, edited, and even AI-generated, there’s something really meaningful about preserving the people we love exactly as they were. Laughing, dancing, crying, running around, doing absolutely nothing.

Not performing for the camera.
Just living.

Years from now, I want your wedding film to feel less like something you watched and more like something you remembered 🖤🎞️

Sam & Scott didn’t need a wedding to become each other’s home — they’d already been there for years. Lake Tahoe just made it official. 🥂🖤

Looking back on one of the first weddings I ever had the privilege of capturing. Just a backyard, a handful of people who mattered, and Brittney and Dylan at the center of it all. Nothing overdone—just real moments unfolding as they came. The kind of day where time slows a bit, where you notice the quiet glances as much as the laughter. It stayed with me for that reason 🖤
