We conduct interviews with the couple and their loved ones before the wedding to capture the emotions, memories, and moments that define your unique love story. These interviews form the foundation of your documentary, adding depth and context.
We integrate personal photos and videos from your relationship—special milestones, trips, or everyday moments—to weave a richer, more personal narrative into your wedding documentary.
We focus on capturing candid, genuine moments from your wedding day and relationship, ensuring that the final film reflects the true essence of your story.
Our video guest booth gives your family and friends the opportunity to share heartfelt wishes, advice, prayer, and memories, adding their voices and love to your wedding documentary. Additionally you will receive an edited reel containing all of the messages left by the guests.
For moments that weren’t captured in real-time, such as the proposal or first date, we offer cinematic reenactments to visually bring those meaningful parts of your story to life. (Optional)
Our final deliverables include a fully edited, cinematic wedding documentary that tells your love story, a separate video guest book reel with heartfelt messages from your guests, and a full-length wedding video featuring one continuous wide-angle recording of each major event (ceremony, speeches, reception). Together, these create a comprehensive and timeless keepsake of your wedding day and journey as a couple.
Hello, my name is Matthew Steinborn. I’m a documentary cinematographer passionate about capturing authentic stories. I founded Wedding Documentarian because I saw an opportunity to go beyond what traditional wedding videography typically offers. While many wedding videos beautifully capture the events of the day, I felt there was untapped potential to tell a deeper, more meaningful story—your love story. A wedding is not just about what happens on the day itself; it’s the result of a journey, filled with moments, emotions, and memories that deserve to be preserved.
Our service is carefully designed to go beyond the highlights of the wedding day. Through pre-wedding interviews, personal footage, and our unique video guest booth, we craft a comprehensive narrative that not only shows what happened but also shares who you are as a couple. The goal is to create a timeless documentary that reflects the essence of your relationship and preserves one of the most important moments of your lives.
Imagine if you were able to see a documentary of your parents’ or grandparents’ marriage, complete with interviews where they shared the key moments of their relationship, how they fell in love, and all the little stories that shaped their lives together. Now, imagine creating that same gift for your future generations—a film that not only captures your wedding day but also tells the story of your love in a way that resonates for decades to come.
In addition to this, since all the most important people in your life will be at your wedding, our custom-made video guest booth creates a collage of your guests’ best wishes, advice, and memories. It’s something you can revisit throughout your life and share with future generations.
Our mission is to preserve the love, the moments, and the people who have shaped your journey as a couple into something meaningful and timeless.
