Meet

Drake

Hi! I’m Drake, and I’m a San Diego + Boise wedding videographer. I started this journey a long time ago, capturing moments that would otherwise be forgotten. Getting the opportunity to do this struck me as something I could turn into a lifelong dream. I pour my heart and soul into everything I create, simply because I was given an eye for capturing true emotion and beauty. Jesus is at the forefront of my work, and I love to display his grace and goodness through film. Being able to create for those who love the Lord is what I was called to do in life, and I will forever be grateful.

Being able to create such memories is truly a gift and I will cherish that forever. It started with bringing my camera to trips, and grew to a love to capture moments like these, those in love, those who love.

MY DESIRE

Handcrafting films for those who feel. For those wanting to relive their wedding with a cozy, home video vibe. For those wanting to hear the laughter, the tears, and the joy.

That feeling you watch a video back from a special trip you and your friends had. That feeling watching videos from your parents lives as children. Being able to observe the real moments between real people, and documenting such love is so special.

These moments captured between people you love and those who love you are some of the memories you look back on 50 years down the line. Your wedding happens once, and it’s intended to be captured with such intention and authenticity.

A few of my favorite things in life -

Jesus, Madi, my 4Runner, Coffee, Camping, camera gear, road trips with friends, and weddings.

Who we are.

We’re a soon to be husband and wife photo and video team that loves Jesus and loves to create. When we aren’t shooting weddings, we’re out getting coffee and going on adventures with our cameras. Now living in Idaho together, we get to plan our very own wedding and start to decorate our home. We hope to serve you and document your big day!

Love,

Drake and Mads
