Your wedding day isn’t a production. It’s a feeling.
You’ve spent months planning a day that reflects who you are, not a script. I believe your photos and film should feel like the party actually felt. I capture the joy, the hype, and the quiet, unscripted magic on raw Super 8 film and modern digital frames.
You deserve to be present on your wedding day
Most wedding photography and video feels like a performance. You shouldn't feel like a stranger is following you around with a huge camera rig during the most important moments of your life.
I blend in with the energy of your day so you can really enjoy it. There won't be stiff smiles or forced directions. Just you, your people, and the honest rhythm of the day.
I’m Nick, your photographer, filmmaker, and honarary hype- man
I’m a firm believer that your wedding day should actually feel like your wedding day, not a choreographed production. I’m here to capture the big energy, the quiet "in-between" moments, and everything that makes your story yours.
My goal is to be a calm, fun, and confident presence by your side so you can stay totally tucked into the moment while I handle the rest. By blending the nostalgia of Super 8 film with modern digital clarity, I create films and photos that feel like artistic heirlooms. You get a professional, organized process from start to finish, but on the day of? It’ll just feel like hanging out with a friend who happens to be obsessed with making you look iconic.
Our Services
-
The honest rhythm of your day, documented. Candid, deeply felt, with minimal posing. I capture the quiet glances and the rowdy celebrations to create a timeless, nostalgic gallery that actually feels like you. No stiff perfection, just genuine memories.
-
Authentic. Grainy. Timeless.
There is a specific kind of magic that digital can’t touch. Super 8mm isn't about high-def perfection; it’s about the feeling of a moment. It’s the flicker of light and the raw emotion of your day captured exactly how you’ll remember it forty years from now.
-
Total coverage. Zero distraction.
The best of both worlds, captured with a single, seamless approach. My hybrid packages ensure your story is documented in its entirety without the need for a massive production crew. It’s a cohesive, soulful collection where the stills and the motion speak the same language. -
The "visual rehearsal" (minus the pressure).
Forget the stiff poses. We’ll wander, we’ll laugh, and I’ll capture the two of you through a mix of timeless photos, candid video, and playful GIFs. It’s a nostalgic, multi-dimensional look at your relationship before the "I Dos." -
Forget the stiff, matching-outfit poses—this is about the beautiful, chaotic reality of your family. My documentary-style sessions are designed to capture the genuine connection, the loud laughs, and the quiet, unscripted moments that define your life right now.
I use a mix of timeless photography, candid video clips, and playful GIFs to tell your story in motion. You’ll get a gallery that breathes: still frames for your walls, and moving loops that capture the way your kids actually run, play, and interact. It’s a nostalgic, multi-dimensional keepsake of this exact season of your life.
The Fan Club
Real talk from the wonderful humans I’ve had the honor of filming and photographing.
“Nick was fun, personable, and professional for the whole process. I knew I always wanted a photographer at our wedding but was uncertain if hiring a videographer was “needed”… LADIES, it is 100% necessary!! It still gives me goosebumps to watch our highlight reel, and it can truly help you relive the best day of your life. Nick, thank you, thank you, thank you!”
— Melissa
“I checked out over 35 vendors, and Nick was the only one that really stood out. I am so pleased with everything! The video was so thought-out and well put together. Unbelievably stunning! I will cherish my wedding video for the rest of my life. Thank you!”
— Maria
“Having the Ewing Studio do the video and our wedding photos was the smartest thing we’ve done. Our engagement photos, wedding photos, and wedding video were so well done and beautifully and perfectly captured how much fun we had.”
— Kathleen
“The BEST videographer!!!! We could not be more happy with how our wedding video turned out! I cannot stop watching our highlight film. His style and how he puts the video together is one of a kind. We also chose to get Super 8 and all I have to say is… DO IT! So cool! 10/10 would recommend the Ewing Studio. Stop looking for a videographer, this is your guy!”
— Courtney

Start Step 1:
BEcause your wedding isn’t a “production”
Most wedding photography and video follows a predictable script: stiff poses, artificial lighting, and a final edit that looks like every other video on your feed. Without a storyteller who understands the "vibe" of you and your day, you risk:
Looking Back at Strangers: Feeling disconnected from photos that were directed rather than captured.
The "Cookie-Cutter" Trap: Film and photos that captures the events, but miss the soul and the hype of the day.
The Wrong Energy: Hiring a "stiff" professional who feels like a total stranger, creating an awkward vibe that makes it hard for you (and your guests) to actually let loose and be yourselves.
You’ve spent months planning a day that reflects you. Don't let the documentation of it feel generic. Choose a creative who values the real, the raw, and the nostalgic.

Your Questions, Answered
-
While I have starting points to give us a baseline, I don’t believe in 'one size fits all.' Every couple and wedding is unique. I specialize in building customized collections tailored specifically to your vision and needs. This ensures your investment is focused exactly where it matters most to you—meaning you only pay for what you actually want and need.
-
Absolutely. Whether it’s a local favorite or a destination halfway across the world, I’m there. Travel fees are custom-quoted based on your location.
-
Think of me as a fly on the wall who knows exactly when to step in and give direction. My goal is to make the process feel effortless so you can focus on the moment.
-
Quality takes a little time, but I won’t keep you waiting forever. You’ll receive a sneak peek within a few days and the full gallery in 4 weeks. Film takes a bit longer, usually 8-12 weeks.
-
90% of my clients start by saying this! My job is to guide you into natural movements rather than stiff poses. By the end of the first ten minutes, you'll forget the camera is even there.
-
A signed contract and a 50% retainer fee officially puts you on my calendar. After that, the date is yours and yours alone.
