About Elmwood Forest

Ephraim L McCormick

CEO

I’ve always had a passion for telling stories. Weddings give me the perfect medium to tell the most spectacular and memorable stories of all. I’ve owned my company for over a decade and I’ve loved every minute of it. Love stories are such a wonderful thing to film and I have never felt more honored than when a couple trusts me to capture their big day. My wife and I got married among the giants of Sequoia and King's Canyon National Park in October of 2019. I feel, now, that I can fully understand the breadth of emotions a couple goes through on their wedding day, and I am humbled to know I am near such experiences every time I film a wedding.

My style of film allows the viewer to breathe. I like sweeping, epic shots that linger and allow the audience to fully take in what they are watching. Many of my clients have told me this style is why they ultimately chose me over others. I pride myself on getting along with everyone I meet. I'm a fan of puns and cheesy jokes, which I will sprinkle in throughout your day to make you and your partner laugh at just the right moments. I strongly believe every wedding vendor you book for your day is part of a team. I actively seek to communicate and get along with your photographer, planner, and anyone else on that team for your big day.

  • Phenomenal Videographer

    We are absolutely thrilled with the film Ephraim created for us and can't wait to watch it over and over again, both now and in the years to come. After our first viewing, we said to each other, "This is AMAZING! This is exactly why we chose Ephraim!" Ephraim masterfully wove together our vows, speeches, dances, and every other special moment—from the silly to the serious—into one perfectly crafted film. It truly exceeded our expectations, and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect memento to cherish forever. Working with Ephraim was a wonderful experience. His dedication, energy, and hard work are evident in every frame of our film, and we are incredibly grateful for his efforts. We wholeheartedly recommend Ephraim to anyone in need of a talented and dedicated videographer. Thank you again, Ephraim, for capturing our memories so beautifully.

    Ephraim is THE BEST! He was recommended to us by a photographer, and we knew we wanted to work with him as soon as we saw his work. He was super helpful and easy to communicate with - meeting with us to talk through any details we wanted captured, logistics of the day of the wedding, and offering ideas we hadn’t even thought of. Not only does Ephraim have a great eye for film, but he also made us feel so comfortable and just be ourselves in front of the camera. Our wedding film is beautiful and could not be any more perfect! We can’t wait to watch it over and over and relive our special day. Thank you Ephraim!!

    Ephraim was super professional and easy to connect with from the beginning. We chose Elmwood Forest Productions for our wedding video and we added the Love Story Package. Both videos turned out amazing and truly captured the beauty and love in the day! So happy to have two perfect videos to commemorate our big day and love story!! Highly recommend!

    In my opinion, a videographer is a MUST for your wedding day. Elmwood Forest was a preferred vendor on many lists we received— and now we know why. The day of the wedding, they were so professional and kind. They were patient with us and our big family. They captured speeches, vows, and the best dance moves. We have 9 beautiful minutes to watch our favorite day of our lives OVER AND OVER AND OVER again. The best videographer out there!!
