At Nomadic Wedding Films, we pride ourselves on crafting wedding films that are a seamless blend of modern boldness and timeless nostalgia. Our films capture the vibrant, contemporary energy of your wedding day while also evoking the sentimental and heartfelt emotions that make your love story unique.
Throughout the editing process, we incorporate personal touches such as integrating meaningful quotes or highlighting specific moments that encapsulate your journey together. We also don't make you wait forever! All our highlight films are delivered within 14 weeks of your wedding.
On your wedding day, our team works discreetly and efficiently to capture every important moment. We blend candid shots with carefully composed scenes to create a natural yet polished narrative.
We start by getting to know you and your vision for your wedding film. This helps us understand your style and the moments you want to highlight. We meticulously plan, considering the best locations, times of day, and techniques to capture both the editorial and the candid elements of your day.
Chris is an extraordinary talent. Not only is he a master of his craft, but his warm and engaging personality makes you feel at ease and truly beautiful in front of the camera. He captured the magic of our wedding day with such precision and artistry. The video captures such a unique perspective of our love story; we're so grateful we get to watch it over and over and relive those precious moments. Chris, thank you a million times over for your incredible work! The video is a treasure we will cherish forever.
Your wedding film should feel like you—not a scripted production or a highlight reel of predictable moments. We take a documentary approach, capturing the real energy of your day with artistry and intention.
No forced scenes, no generic poses—just the unfiltered joy, the in-between glances, and the way your people show up for you. Every couple is different, and so is every film we create.
We weave together moments that matter, crafting a cinematic story that reflects your personalities, your celebration, and the connections that make it unforgettable.
Your wedding isn’t a staged production, and your photos and film shouldn’t feel like one either. We document the day as it unfolds—raw, real, and full of energy—without forcing moments or relying on cookie-cutter shots.
No awkward posing, no overused scenes, just an intentional balance of artful storytelling and documentary-style capture.
We focus on the atmosphere, the unscripted interactions, and the way your people experience this day with you. Every couple has a different story, and we make sure your visuals reflect that—something timeless, something you.
We typically deliver within 10 weeks of your wedding date, though contractually we have up to 14 weeks. This is to account for busy season or if we are traveling for destination weddings. To date, we have never delivered late!
We do not share RAW footage. To explain, we shoot in SLOG3, and unless you are a professional videographer yourself, the footage is quite useless to you. Most clients want the footage because they are seeking the full ceremony & reception (speeches) and this is a separate video we can create for you for an additional fee.
This varies greatly depending on your type of wedding, how many events there were, etc. But typical highlight films are 5-10 minutes.
Absolutely! In fact most of our work nowadays is destination. We are based on Oahu, but are often traveling to the west coast and Europe.
We use royalty-free, licensed songs in our films and our client are not a part of the selection process. However, we take your personal preferences very seriously and ask about your specific tastes in music and overall video vibe during our onboarding and planning process.
