Olivia + Logan traveled all the way from from Milwaukee to the tiny town of Raeville, Ne (pop. 21) to be married in the same church where Olivia’s parents and grandparents were married.
With every curated detail and intentional moment, this day was filled with so much beauty and love - and this is only a glimmer.

This might be controversial but…
I just couldn’t bring myself to edit a sneak peek of Katie + Luke’s wedding.
There were just so many moments that I wanted to give them to sit with - their heartfelt letters, their amazing soloist and the music they chose so intentionally, the gift Luke gave Katie that literally made me burst into tears, Katie crowdsurfing and a visit from Herbie Husker… there’s just no way I could wrap that up into a 30 second sneak.
In the fast-paced world of wedding videography, with quick cuts, energetic music, and adrenaline charging every scene, I’ve come to realize that there is a gift in films that take their time -- films that invite you to linger in each moment and savor each emotion as it unfolds. It’s the subtle nuances, the quiet whispers, the wrinkled handholding, the nervous echos, every intimate detail strung together into a tapestry of who these two are and the incredible ways God has and is moving in their lives. It may not check the boxes for social media, but this is a film I know will be cherished for generations, and I’m forever grateful to have a small part in this story ❤️

I love seeing couples wash each others feet in lieu of common traditions - it’s such a beautiful symbol of laying down their lives for each other, of serving each other, and of following Christ’s call to love one another as He loves us.

Saturday was the perfect day for this elegant winter wedding 🤍🤍🤍
Alyx + Tyson shared such a beautiful day with many meaningful moments, but what stands out most to me was their love for their family and friends - the way they wanted to share this day with every single person who was special to them. We were blessed to be a small part of it all! Alyx + Tyson, we can’t wait to see all God has in store for you two!

The one thing so many couples forget on their wedding day, but as a videographer I see instantly —
YOU are a reflection of the LOVE of God ✨
Your love draws our hearts towards heaven. Witnessing weddings like yours shows us a small slice - not only of what healthy and holy marriages look like - but of what God’s love for each of us looks like.
As a wedding filmmaker, my hope and prayer is that all who see these films will be inspired - not to say “I want a love like that”, but “I HAVE a love like that, because I have a Father who knows and loves me and wills my good each and every day. And this wedding, all of the beauty and love and joy I see here is just a taste of what the Lord has waiting for me.”

One of my favorite things about planning a Catholic wedding is choosing the Readings for the wedding Mass. This is such a special way to speak to the hearts of all who come to your wedding and draw them back to the Lord!
While there’s nothing wrong with “Love is patient, love is kind”, here are 5 beautiful options that you may not have considered!
✨ Bonus ✨ Use a Reading that has special meaning to YOU! Maybe it’s the Bread of Life discourse or the Beatitudes, or a scripture verse you’ve prayer together with your fiancé to prepare for marriage. Whatever holds meaning to you will make a beautiful reflection during your wedding ceremony!
What readings would you add?
