About — Love On 16mm | Timeless Wedding Films

About Us

some scripted, some unscripted.

— Director & Founder

I've been making films for 15+ yrs, with work that's taken me around the world across documentaries, commercials, and music videos.

Every wedding is approached through the lens of cinematic documentary filmmaking. Rather than fully directing your day, my team and I quietly capture it as it unfolds, preserving the people, emotions, and moments that make it uniquely yours.

Using a blend of high-end digital cameras mixed real 16mm and 8mm film scans, we create films with texture, depth, and character that feel as genuine as the memories themselves.

Our hope is simple. To create a film that brings you back, not just to how your wedding looked, but to how it felt.

FAQ

Your questions answered

Do you travel for weddings?

Absolutely. Over half of our commissions are destination weddings. We handle all of our travel arrangements, making the process as seamless as possible for you.

What makes your films different?

Every wedding is approached as a cinematic documentary. Rather than directing every moment, we quietly capture your day as it naturally unfolds, creating films that feel honest, timeless, and true to you.

Can we pay in installments?

Absolutely. To reserve your date, we require a 50% retainer. From there, we're happy to create a custom payment schedule leading up to your wedding. The remaining balance simply needs to be paid before final delivery.

Will you guide us in front of the camera?

Of course. While most of the day is documented naturally, we'll gently guide you during portraits so everything feels relaxed, effortless, and never overly posed.

Do you shoot on real film?

Yes. Couples can add authentic 16mm and Super 8 film coverage to any collection. Captured on real film stock and professionally developed, these scans are seamlessly woven into your final film for added texture, character, and timelessness.

How do we secure our date?

Once you're ready to move forward, we'll send over your proposal and contract. Your wedding date is officially reserved once the agreement is signed and your retainer has been received.

When will we receive our videos?

Content delivery depends on the package you choose. Teasers and social content are typically delivered within 24 to 48 hours, while your completed wedding films are delivered within approximately 4 to 8 weeks.

Can you create a custom package?

Every celebration is different, and we'd love to create something that fits yours. Whether you're planning an intimate elopement, a multi-day destination wedding, or simply need something outside our standard collections, we'll build a custom proposal tailored to your plans.
