If you could relive your wedding day after-the-fact, would you? Everyone wants to remember their wedding day - that's why finding a photographer is one of the first things a couple usually does. But do you want to just remember your wedding day, or do you want to relive it? There's no question that when it comes to preserving these memories, video captures them in a much more immersive way than photographs. We believe in telling your wedding story in a compelling way that you and others who watch your wedding film will remember and relive for a lifetime.

We hired Ryan for our August 2024 wedding and he was fantastic to work with. We really wanted our wedding film to represent us as a couple, and so the music was incredibly important to us. Ryan gave us access to a database of options and when we made our choice, he even helped us use the song's original sample, too! The result was unique and special and reflective of our style. He was kind, flexible, organized, fair, and professional. We really appreciated how open and collaborative he was. Thank you, Ryan! https://www.youtube.com/watch?vn3Vea9LbNDc Photo by AnneKathryn Photography

Working with Ben was a truely excellent experience. He is a master of his craft and a superb communicator. Ben responded immediately and thoughtfully to my requests and questions. He explained every aspect of his work and what decisions we needed to make to achieve our desired wedding video.

Here at Tree Films, we make your story a priority. We strive to get to know our couples and how they came to be, down to the silly coincidences and weird first dates. We like to think that our mission goes beyond just documenting your wedding day -- the goal is to create an unforgettable experience! We are invested in making each video as genuine as possible, as if your story was being told by a best friend who witnessed all the important stuff. Tell us who you are as a couple and let us put together a video that tells the story from day one to I do!

Treefilms is a stellar photography and videography company! After our venue, they were the second vendor we booked as photography and videography was very important to us. Ashley was responsive and kind from the beginning! She was open to our ideas in regard to location and then made it look even better in the photo video! We felt so comfortable during that shoot and at our wedding in front of the camera with them. They gave us enough direction that it was easy to know what to do, but did not result in stiff or overly posed pictures. The candid shots that they captured throughout the wedding day are photos we will cherish; they were able to capture all the emotions so perfectly. The team worked seamlessly with all the other vendors, they truly know what they’re doing! (Shoutout to Ashley for doing up the buttons on my dress!) Our wedding video is a work of art, I don’t think it’s comparable to the standard videos produced by other vendors. Treefilms is the vendor we recommend most to friends and family, and we look forward to working with them again in the future!

Video exists in my life as an extension of everything I love about photography. Something drew me to it, and with the ever expanding video modes of my photo cameras, practice became commonplace. Being able to tell storying audibly as well as visually adds a level of depth that is hard to reach within photography. You can feel the story take you through a place in time. Moment capturing in all its beauty.

You won't just love Alex's photography, but you'll love working with him too. Half the stress of planning a wedding is communicating with vendors, but Alex was a dream to collaborate with - he listened to all our ideas and executed them perfectly.

My name is Taylor — I’m a husband, father, teacher, ocean lover, and videographer / editor based out of CT and Cape Cod. I’ve been passionate about photography for as long as I can remember, and deep down I’ve always felt that capturing moments was in some way my calling. A few years ago I began to realize that photographs — even the most compelling ones — are not able to tell an entire story. They provide a powerful glimpse, frozen in time, but even the best photographs are unable to preserve memories and emotions the way that films can.

Awarded Best of Zola
I can't say enough great things about Taylor! I knew from our initial call that I wanted him on our vendor team and I couldn't be happier with my decision! His films capture the elegant and timeless vibes I was hoping for and he was an absolute joy to plan and work with. Taylor and my photographer blended seamlessly and teamed up on the big day to work their magic. Our social media reel is my favorite thing to watch now and we're so excited to see the final product! Taylor is truly gifted and I would highly recommend him to any bride!

We've got about a decade of experience under our belts capturing and editing wedding footage, first for other companies, and for the past six years for our own. Shooting wedding films is stressful, but amazingly rewarding when a couple tells us that they love the film and will treasure it and share it with existing and future family and friends.

My husband and I went back and forth about hiring a videographer for awhile but we are so happy we did! Especially through Kasaydia! She captured everything we could’ve ever wanted through our wedding film and two years later it still brings tears every time we watch it. It’s a great way to relive your beautiful day surrounded by loved ones. Wedding days are so chaotic that it’s almost like you blink and it’s over but having Kasaydia create such a beautiful video of the memories we missed that day, we will be forever grateful. The quality is great, she is so easy to communicate and work with, and she listens to exactly what you want your video to be. So in my opinion just say yes and book this woman already!

When I was 12 years old my grandfather left his Canon Camcorder at my house "by accident" (I still say that he knew how much I loved it and left it on purpose). Ever since then I've had a passion for filming and storytelling. We film all kinds of events, commercials and sizzle reels for social media, but a wedding day is different. It's joy, it's tears, and it's butterflies. It's old memories colliding with new ones. It's a simple and common celebration but one that it truly unique for the couple experiencing it...and I love capturing every moment!

Absolutely 5 stars! Bob and his team were fantastic! They were professional, kind, and helpful, and they delivered an amazing video. We would absolutely use them again and highly recommend them.

I saw her page on The Knot and knew I had to reach out. She was extremely professional and a fantastic listener. She eased my nerves about being recorded and gave us natural direction. At the end of our wedding day I truly felt like I gained a friend! She has been very responsive when I asked her to make an edit on our video too. I am so happy with the way our video turned out. We will cherish it forever. In the end, I feel that I did find the perfect videographer that I was seeking!

I’m a videographer myself so screening vendors to find one that could fulfill my vision and quality standards took a while, but I’m very happy I picked Michael Brigida at Precision Films. His sample work was gorgeous and gave exactly the right blend of cinematic and storytelling, with drone shots, soundbites from vows and toasts, and amazing b-roll scenes of the couple and wedding party. He executed this flawlessly day-of, directing us with prompts and repeating takes if needed, which I truly admire. I cannot wait to see the finished wedding film when it’s ready, both Mike and his assistant that day were so professional, timely, and skilled. There was even a moment early evening where it started drizzling and they went outside, set up a spotlight and took some incredible silhouetted rain shots with us, SO creative!! Definitely recommend!

When not making creative videos, I love eating Mexican food, watching movies, and playing with my dogs. I also volunteer and foster for Rhode Home Rescue, a non-profit animal rescue.

Larry arrives early, knows exactly where to set up his microphones and cameras, and magically anticipates everything that is going to happen before you even do it!
