WELCOME TO THE INNER WORKINGS OF MY MIND
I’m Steven, a former professional touring musician from Florida, chocolate enthusiast and recent stage 3 stomach cancer survivor! I’ve always had a love for creating things; so, when wedding films came to my attention, it seemed all too natural.
Weddings are wonderful because they personify originality and nostalgia. Being born in the generation that was raised on MTV, nothing makes me happier than for my couples to look back at their wedding as a music video rather than hours of footage from every second of the day. It’s the highlights we remember; and I try to capture the perfect medley of those moments on your special day.
When it comes to my wedding films, My team and I strive to produce an honest, rad, and highly-edited film that captures not only the emotion from the day but the fun you have as well!
Along with the professional digital cameras and lenses we use, we also film with vintage, Canon Super 8 camerasTaken from Wikipedia, Super 8 film is a motion picture film format released in 1965 as an improvement over the older “Double” or “Regular” 8 mm home movie format.”. So basically Super 8 is a type of camera from the late 60’s – 70’s that shoots on real 8mm film that is not only unique looking but is also super fucking cool! Here’s an example of what that film looks like once it’s been processed, scanned, digitized and color corrected. You can view more of these films in the Super 8 Section of the site. from the 1970’s. These cameras use actual film; so, the moments I catch with these bad boys are as genuine as it gets! Super 8 is so raw and real. You can literally hold these moments in your hands; and in the video world, that’s something you don’t get to experience very often anymore. It’s one of the reasons I love Super 8 so much!
A videographer is someone that’s going to be with you all day capturing each unique moment as it happens. Your videographer should be able to make you feel at ease and comfortable. In addition, your videographer should know when and where to be at any instant.
We love to interact with our couples on a personal level and not just be some wallflower with a camera. By the end of the day, we want you to feel like we’ve been friends for years! When we can come together like this, that’s when we can capture those honest, real and magical moments.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
- We typically book out about a year and a half in advance (16-18 months) but some couples will secure their date with use a little closer to their wedding (about a year in advanced). However, If your wedding is around the corner, still reach out — We always try to leave a little room in our calendar for some last minute weddings!
- Every year is different because of the ebb and flow of the world we live in 😂 but we only accept about 24 weddings a years (about 2 a month). We do this so that we can give every wedding our absolute best and most creative touch. My editing is a very detailed and meticulous process that I believe shows in every wedding video that I produce.
- We specialize only in videography but can definitely recommend some bad ass photographers that we think do amazing work. Just ask and we’ll send you some of our top suggestions.
- Wild Light Film’s started in 2015 as just one person, me (Steven), a camera and an eagerness to create special videos by using unique, organic videography mixed with stylish, creative and fashion forward editing. Because It’s been just me I’m unfortunately only able to film so many weddings every year but In 2018 that all changed. I met an amazing videographer from San Diego who loved to film weddings (and is sooo good at it) but found that editing just wasn’t his thing, this is how the Wild Light Films Team started. The WLF Team is a very small group of hand-picked videographers that I’ve trained to not only film in the same style as me but are also bad ass people who are just fun to be around, which I think is EXTREMELY important. After your wedding day, they send me all of the footage, I cull through it and create your videos in the same way as if I filmed it myself.
- I always want my films to reflect my couples taste in music and style so I ask them to send me 3-5 of songs that they love and think would be fun for the edit. Of course if you want me to find a song, I totally can! What I do then is search my music databases and try to find 3-5 songs that I feel match your wedding, send them over and you tell me which one you love the most. Music is super important to the film because it sets the tone and mood, so picking the one that fits you might take some time but will totally be worth it. Once we have that perfect song picked, the editing begins (and coffee intake) followed by more editing, re-cuts, minor adjustments, more coffee, more editing and then the last final touches and critiquing. Nothing leaves my studio without being just right in the Wild Light way.
- I strive to have a QUICK turn around so you’re not having to wait six, eight or even twelve months to enjoy your videos. Most wedding films are completed within 16-20 weeks of your wedding date. We also shoot with real super 8 film which has to be mailed off, processed, scanned and digitized which usually takes about 5-6 weeks. With videography, there is a lot of post production that has to be done when making a killer film, this includes finding and culling the BEST shots, editing and creating the story, color correcting and grading, followed by coffee, more editing, re-cuts, minor adjustments, more coffee (maybe a margarita by now), more editing, and then the last final touches and critiquing 😊
- Every wedding & couple is unique so we have a couple of different collections but our base collection starts at $6,500. Pleases feel free to contact us for our full pricing and collections list.
