CUSTOM PROPOSAL

Haley & Tye

One team, one vision for your day.

Hello friends!

It was such a pleasure meeting Haley a couple weeks ago and hearing all about your dreams & vision for your October wedding at Ferguson Estates next year! Thank you for sharing all the fun & meaningful details with me and I’m so glad your wedding planning process has been going smoothly so far and you’ve been able to find your perfect vendors and all the beautiful details are coming together! It was so fun hearing how you went to high school together but didn’t start dating until years later through a mutual friend! Thank you for sharing about your story, how you’re building a life together in Petrolia, and all about baby Caden! I’m so happy you are surrounded by such a great group of friend & family who are all excited to celebrate your marriage with you and have the BEST time together!

During our conversation we talked about how important it is for you to have a sentimental wedding film that you can look back on and be reminded of your big day. Just think about the joy you’ll feel showing it to Caden and any future kiddos! I’m so honoured you’ve considered my team to come alongside you and document this once-in-a-lifetime event and help you remember for years to come!

Your Custom Proposal is designed to give you a customized option for your video needs & current price point, and based on what you actually want. I’m here for you, so if you have any questions please let me know and we can continue talking about it!

CINEMATIC STORYTELLING WEAVING TOGETHER THE HIGHLIGHTS OF YOUR DAY

“PERSONAL & CUSTOMIZED”

“We had the absolute pleasure of collaborating with Amanda and her team for a wedding, and the service she provided to our clients was second to none. Amanda’s approach was so personal and customized, leaving our clients feeling so connected and confident in the weeks leading up to their wedding day.”

What to expect from the team.

THE APPROACH

A SYMPATHETIC GUIDE

We understand the delicate balance between documenting these once-in-a-lifetime emotions and respecting the moment. You can trust that we would never take advantage of your emotions or exploit these important moments for spectacle.

Which means we'll check in with you (and anyone we film!) throughout the day to ensure everyone feels cared for and comfortable. So, instead of treating your wedding day like a movie set, we'll set the stage with a little bit of direction and let your authentic interactions come to the surface. 

THE EXPERTISE

TIMELINE COLLABORATION

Even the most moving candid moments don’t happen by happenstance! Despite how natural our photos & films look, the most successful wedding days are the ones where we make space for emotions to unfold naturally. By helping you craft a timeline around the people and moments that mean the most to you, we will ensure your wedding photos & films follow your priorities too. You can count on us to be there at the right place and time to document what matters most. Then, we’ll turn it into something magical to experience, and will be easy to share!

THE SECRET SAUCE

PERSONALIZED SOUNDTRACK

As a filmmaker born from a long line of musicians, I understand the nuances of choosing the right songs for your film. By leaning into my extensive knowledge of music theory, I craft custom soundtracks that mix personal audio and music to match the feel of your wedding film.

Your film's audio will emphasize the different emotions of the day without taking away from your story. In order to create the perfect fit, I often mix together multiple songs for an intentional and creative soundtrack.

“ATTENTION TO DETAIL"

“Amanda’s extensive planning and thorough communication ensured that her team captured every part of our wedding day without a hitch. Her kindness and happy demeanor helped us to feel so comfortable in front of the cameras. Her team’s enthusiasm and attention to detail are clearly evident in the final film that we received. We absolutely loved our opportunity to work with Amanda May Films.”
