TINA, lead cinematographer and manager
When I am not responding to your inquiries, I am likely chasing around the world’s sweetest toddler. Having planned my own wedding and now being on the other side of it as a mom, I have such a different appreciation for just how special and fleeting these big moments are. Watching my own daughter grow has made me realize how quickly the little things become memories, and it’s made capturing those moments for my clients feel even more meaningful.
I am drawn to the little things; a mom helping her daughter into her wedding shoes, a dad seeing his daughter for the first time, a couple sneaking away for a quiet moment together. I’ll probably be holding back tears while thinking about my own daughter envisioning the day that I’m the one helping her get ready for her wedding someday.
I love telling these stories visually because I get to capture all of those little pieces of a day that you might not even realize are happening. My goal is always to make something that feels like you; authentic, emotional, fun, imperfect, and completely real. I want you to be able to watch it years from now and not just remember what your wedding looked like, but remember exactly how it felt.
Tina is praised for her go-with-the-flow, peaceful disposition and creates calm wherever she goes which comes in handy on a wedding day. You can check out Tina’s photography work here to see her travels and work with local small businesses and surf brands.
BEN, editor
// filmed by tina
to say that Ben is obsessed with surfing would be the understatement of the year. If he is not at his desk editing a cinematic piece of art for his couples, it’s because he is out in the water at Rockaway Beach (even if the water is thirty degrees). And when he isn’t surfing or editing your film, you will most likely find him in the kitchen whipping up the world’s best homemade fried chicken (bold claim, but true). And while we cannot make any promises that he won’t be thinking about surfing if the waves are good on any given wedding day; we can say with confidence that when Ben is shooting, you are in good hands.
