We like to strike a balance between the super flashy "music video" style videos and the longer narrative style wedding videos. We strive to create videos that are extremely shareable, but also rich with content and a story, since this is a video you will watch for the rest of your lives. We utilize natural dialogue from the day and deliberate pacing in our editing to bring your memories to life in an artistic way.
Our wedding film from Christian, Chris, & the Brighter Lights Media team is such a masterpiece! The cinematography is absolutely stunning, the music is so well coordinated, and the venue & decor are beautifully captured. They wove together every funny, intimate, and meaningful moment with us and our family & friends.
I'm a cinematographer/DP from Boston, MA. I studied Avante-Garde Film & Auteurship Cinema at University of Colorado. I've been filming professionally for 7 years, and 4 of those have been filming weddings full time. When I'm not behind the lens, you'll probably find me in the mountains skiing if there's snow or hiking with my dog Nala.
I'm a fun loving, relaxed kind of guy who just gets incredibly excited about weddings, joy, and happiness (who doesn't?). For the past 5 years, I've been incredibly fortunate to be able to capture true love with my camera on a regular basis. In the past I've had the opportunity to work as a cinematographer on soap operas, shorts, and music videos and have learned that working under pressure is where I thrive.
I first fell in love with video production when my friends and I shot and edited our own skateboarding videos. After I graduated from UT Arlington, I worked on Short Films, Reality Shows, and even at a local News station. When I filmed my first wedding I instantly fell in love with it and knew wedding videography is what I wanted to do.

FIVE STARS. HIGHLY recommend for your wedding! Brighter Lights Media is the best. Christian made the process leading up to the wedding super easy and relaxed. He answered all emails/phone calls quickly and made sure all of our needs and wishes were met. The wedding day was also carefree and fun - our friends and family didn't even know we had a videographer because they blend in like wedding guests and the cameras aren't huge and in your face. All of the raw footage is candid and fun and the wedding feature is beautiful - edited and shot like a real movie. It was so nice to relive our wedding day

Highly recommend Brighter Lights Media! Christian is incredible — so detail oriented, thoughtful, and talented. My husband and I are thrilled with all of his work on our wedding and we love our video. The amount of time and dedication that Christian put into our wedding was so special, from our first phone call to the final film, he didn’t miss a beat and always made us feel acknowledged and heard. They captured everything but were so discrete, which was really important to us. Weddings can be so stressful, but working Brighter Lights Media made the videography portion of the weekend such a

If you are looking for the best wedding videographer in the US stop looking...you just found it! Brighter Lights Media does an INCREDIBLE job not only with the final product, but also with everything leading up to your special day. My husband and I got married in Oct. in NH and Christian and his partner were so helpful beforehand and incredibly professional the day of! We met with Christian a few months before our wedding so that he could get to know us better as a couple and what our vision was for our wedding and the video. Christian perfectly captured our special day and retold the story in

Although we weren't initially convinced that recording our wedding day on film was important, we are so unbelievably thankful that we pulled the trigger on these awesome guys! From the beginning, emailing with Christian super easy. He we quick to respond, always organized and professional. Throughout the planning, we were always easily understood and supported when we shared what we wanted our wedding day to look and feel like. At the same time, we were advised when we felt clueless on how to navigate plans and schedules. Chris, Ryan and their assistant were with us on the wedding day. Most of

Our wedding film from Christian, Chris, & the Brighter Lights Media team is such a masterpiece! The cinematography is absolutely stunning, the music is so well coordinated, and the venue & decor are beautifully captured. They wove together every funny, intimate, and meaningful moment with us and our family & friends. It was so much fun to relive the day, especially with the full-length ceremony and toasts footage - we laughed (& cried) all over again. Brighter Lights Media captured our day so beautifully and brought our wedding "vision" & our love story to life on camera. Not only that, but Christian

I was fortunate to meet the Brighter Lights Media team a few years ago at a gorgeous Ritz Carlton wedding I was planning. I was impressed! Since then, I have tried to work with them as often as possible. They are extremely easy to work with as a planner and a bride. In fact, my clients always thank me for introducing them to such a friendly, professional, and hard working team. Christian, Chris and the team always deliver an exceptional product that will last a lifetime for our couples!

The experience we had with Brighter Lights Media was outstanding. We had hired them for my daughters wedding on the cape. I can just tell you that the video that Brighter Lights Media created for this special day, was something so different and so heartfelt that I am so grateful that we hired them. The end result was that everyone that has watched this video has said the same thing. What a great video.It is like watching a trailer for a movie. Needless to say we were very happy with our results and that is why we have hired them again to do my sons wedding this summer. If you are contemplating

My husband and I spent a lot of time and effort researching cinematographers for our wedding. It was one of the components of our wedding day that was most important to us. We were happy with our decision to involve Brighter Lights Media from the get-go. For starters, they were responsive, which, to anyone planning a wedding, is not only helpful but also comforting when there is a plethora of other e-mail strings being thrown about with other vendors. They were also patient and, despite our difficulty in describing what we wanted due to our lack of technical knowledge, took the time to listen to
