Tommy on the floor, mid-reception

I trained in narrative film before I ever shot a wedding, and it shows in the work.

A film set gives you a second take. A wedding gives you one. The vows happen once. Your dad's face when he sees you happens once. My whole craft is being in the right place, already rolling, before the moment announces itself.

Most weeks I'm also making video for Monroe County: public-service work, community films, the kind of projects where the story has to land in sixty seconds with people who aren't actors. That's why I care about sound as much as picture: I record your vows, readings and toasts as clean audio, because a beautiful shot with unusable audio is half a film.

Nearly 150 films later, the thing couples tell me most often is that they forgot I was there. That's the goal.

What Couples Say

His videos so powerful I cried during most of the clips I watched on his website. His style of cinematography was exactly what I was hoping to find.

I was looking for a videographer that could artfully and skillfully capture on film the essence of our wedding day. Tommy exceeded our expectations. I am truly thankful for his helpful professional nature combined with his filming and editing genius.

The actual wedding video STILL gives me chills in its perfection.

I live in California and had my wedding in New York, so wedding planning could have been a nightmare. Tommy agreed to create our wedding video in an unbelievable 4 days so we could show it at our reception in California. He had it completed, with closed captioning, within TWO days.

You and your Crew were on POINT!

You guys did an amazing job. Words can't express how much it means to me. Thanks for capturing all of our memories on our big day!

He made sure we were on the same page to ensure he captured every moment.

It was a pleasure working with Tommy on our wedding! I would highly recommend Tommy to my friends and family.

Questions

00:11:50:02  ·  FAQ
How far in advance should we book?

Availability is limited. Most couples book 9 to 14 months out. If your date is close, ask anyway; cancellations happen.

How long until we get our film?

Turnaround is typically 8–12 weeks for the highlight film and full-length edit. Rush delivery has been done in as little as two days when a couple needed it for a second reception.

Do you travel?

Yes. Rochester is home, and Buffalo, Syracuse and the Finger Lakes are routine. Destination weddings worldwide, though gas and hotel fees may apply.

Is the drone footage guaranteed?

No, and no honest filmmaker will guarantee it. Drone work depends on time, location and weather. When conditions allow, it's included at no extra cost.

Do you offer half-day or à la carte coverage?

Not currently. The package is built as one complete film of the whole day, and splitting it tends to leave couples with gaps they regret.

Can we pick the music?

Everything is scored with properly licensed music, which keeps your film safe to share anywhere. Tell me the mood you want and I'll find something that fits.
