As the saying goes…moments come and go but memories last forever. However, I’d like to argue that memories fade with time as well. The day you say I do will forever remain one of the most momentous days of your life and I’m here to capture it - allowing you to relive your day and actually remember it through video.
I’m here to make your wedding day more than just a memory.
KNOW THIS FIRST
Your mom helping you get into your wedding dress.
Your grandma’s reaction when she sees you for the first time.
The feeling when you finally say I do.
Or maybe your best friend breaking it down on the dance floor.
Your wedding day is about a future you can’t wait to begin with the people you love most, and the moments you don’t ever want to forget.
While pictures allow you to see it all again, film allows you to feel it again. Consider a wedding video something you simply cannot do without.
Let's get started!
MEET
MEET RILEY
Hey there, I'm Riley! My approach to creating your wedding video may not be like other videographers. I first want to get to know you two as a couple. What is your story? How did you meet? Questions like these allow me to tell your story better.
On top of that, no two videos I create will ever be the same. I have a good sense of re-creating the vibe of your day. If it is pretty emotional with lots of great moments, you can expect me to use a slower song. If it was fast-paced with a lot of energy and laughs and dancing, you best believe I’m using an upbeat song for your video. Finding a song that fits the vibe of your day is one of my favorite parts of the creative process when it comes to wedding videography.
FILMMAKER | CREATIVE DIRECTOR
I find myself always in awe that I get to do this as my “job". I think it’s a beautiful thing when a career and a passion come together. I’m honored to have the opportunity to use my creative talent & passion for storytelling on your wedding day.

Forget what you think your wedding video should be, and imagine what it will be.
Makayla + Cole
Riley is truly an outstanding videographer (and wonderful person) with an almost mystical ability to capture the true nature of people especially at our wedding. We felt at ease the entire day because we knew Riley would get all the real and raw emotions of our perfect day. Video is something we both love and treasure and we highly recommend Riley to everyone. You can tell he truly loves what he does and there is no doubt Riley will put 110% effort into your special day!
"Films By Riley was truly one of the best things we had on our wedding day."
Paige + James
I think I watched it a dozen times that first day. Now, months later, we still watch it often and reminisce. I am so thankful to Films By Riley for creating such a perfect and thoughtful video so that we’re able to relive one of the happiest days of our lives anytime we want.
"Words can’t express how excited we were when we received our final video."
madeline + benton
Riley was amazing right from the start. He was organized, personable, and easy to get along with which made our wedding day even easier. The video perfectly captured the emotion, laughter, and fun of the entire day. He captured the smallest details which made our video that much more special. Riley is so talented and passionate about what he does and it shows in his work. This is a video we will show our family and friends for years to come. We cannot thank him enough!
"Riley was everything we were looking for in a wedding videographer."
Marley + dru
He was not only our videographer but also helped with other random wedding things! I would recommend him to anyone. He was so professional and down to earth.
"Riley was so helpful throughout my entire wedding day."
Eliza + Isaac
Some of the things that I think set Films By Riley apart from the rest is Riley's talent at storytelling, editing style/techniques, seamless incorporation of music, access to the raw footage, attention to detail and just being so easy to work with and an all around wonderful human. We received our wedding video a few months ago and I have not gone more than 4 or 5 days without watching it! I love it so much!
"Riley edited our wedding video footage into a wonderful video that I know we will cherish forever!"
