Hello,
I’m Declan.
Your wedding is more than a day - it’s a story waiting to be told.
Since 2017, I’ve crafted wedding films that preserve moments and emotions worth passing down from generation to generation.

“Declan’s passion for storytelling through video was evident from the beginning. His portfolio proves it and his passion overflows and passes on to his interactions in person. I’m a picky bride, yet I was flattered seeing that he certainly took the time to truly understand our love story (which is so crucial to storytelling!) along with the unique elements of our wedding as we progressed through the planning process. We had a theme with a reception to let loose! With that, it was important for our videographer to capture both the big and small, candid interactions that are so easy to miss amidst the whirlwind of a wedding day. Declan seamlessly blended into the background, and captured our beautiful moments without ever feeling intrusive.
To top it off, Declan is open to any ideas you may have, which proves that he is such a wonderful partner to work with (and turns into your friend) instead of just a “vendor”. In fact, he had the brilliant idea of adding our guestbook videos to our wedding film… and I tagged along saying “hey, we should include our home vlogs we were trying to capture too!!” And, that, he did.
His vision for our story fit so perfectly. Now, every time my husband and I watch our wedding video, it feels as if we're transported back to our once in a moment, magical day, and revisited our life story together. I personally cried, lol, and our friends and family were able to also relive the day and loved seeing their wishes and moments captured on camera.
If you’re looking for a videographer to capture the full story, love, and vibe of your wedding, Declan is the one. He's all ears and eyes. Choose wisely ;)”

“We wish we could give Declan 10 stars. He was nothing but accommodating, helpful, respectful, extremely communicative and most importantly, INSANELY talented from the first time we talked. He worked extremely well with our other vendors and even stepped in to make sure the lighting in our ceremony room was perfect for the mood of the event and to make sure it translated well on camera.
As for the filming and video itself, it is absolutely stunning, we cry like babies every time we watch it. I'm an Art Director myself and can assure you his editing is top notch, his composition is spot on and he's able to capture all the important and intimate moments without ever even realizing he's there, which is an invaluable quality in a videographer.
Declan doesn't just show up on your day and film, he worked with us from the moment we hired him, he had me fill out a detailed questionnaire and then we had a meeting and went over every single thing and our exact timeline to familiarize himself with our day. He talked to us about music, and let us have a hand in picking out the song, he was hands down the best communicator out of all our vendors, he always replied quickly to my texts and emails. In my mind, that was everything I could ask for in a vendor!
He was a very important asset to our day, he contributed a perfect level of professionalism and fun energy and because of that we now have a video that we get to enjoy the rest of our lives!
I'm glad we snagged him in Ohio before he moved, California will be lucky to have him! You don't need to think twice about hiring Declan!”

“We are so grateful we found Declan, 10/10 experience! Super genuine, professional, and incredibly talented at what he does. When I first started searching for a videographer I felt like most the companies I came across were pretty “corporate” and impersonal. The first thing I noticed about Declan’s page is that he’s an amazing storyteller. & Let me tell you he absolutely nailed capturing not only our wedding, but who we are and our relationship! I’m OBSESSED with our videos! Having clips from our adventure session in our wedding video made it extra unique and personal to us. They are so moving and make just about everyone we show tear up. I can’t speak highly enough about Declan! By far our favorite vendor for our wedding and definitely a gem of a person. You won’t regret booking with him!”

“Declan created a beautiful memorable video for our wedding day. Everyone commented on our video and said it looked and felt very cinematic. He does top notch work/edits and is extremely talented at what he does. Thanks again Declan for helping us relive our wedding day through a beautiful lens!”

“What can I say... Declan was absolutely amazing! We really wanted to invest in a videographer for our wedding and we have zero regrets on our decision. We had the pleasure of meeting him prior to our wedding about a month before and did an adventure session which really helped get us comfortable in front of the camera! And then when it came to wedding day, not only was he awesome with us but he truly felt like a friend to everyone. It was such a fun and love filled day and he really captured that feeling in the video. We just let him have creative control and from the editing style to the music choice it was just perfection. I was really detail oriented and it was like he could read my mind. We watch our wedding video like once a month now and it's almost a year since our wedding and it was just the best day of our lives! Thank you Declan, and if you are in search of a videographer, LOOK NO FURTHER! He is your guy!”

“The video that Declan made of our wedding makes me cry every time I watch it! 😭 He incorporated clips from our adventure session we did with him prior to our wedding, and then all the best parts of our wedding day which I absolutely loved! His style is romantic, artsy, cool, and exactly what we hoped for. His personality is amazing and he was so fun to work with! Thank you Declan! 🤍”
