Reviews from our couples, the process, frequently asked questions, and what exactly makes a Genuine Collective Couple.
We always begin this process by carefully curating a selection of licensed music that reflects our couples. After reviewing all the footage, we put together our favorites to capture the essence and atmosphere of your wedding to tell the best story possible.
"We were initially uncertain but went ahead with planning. Now our wedding film is what we cherish the most"
" Working with Geoffrey was such a dream. She had creative ideas and did such a good job putting us at ease all the while working with our photographers and had ideas on how to structure things to make sure everything is captured. "

Our couples are as involved as they would like to be. For highlight films, we have to use music that we can purchase a license for. So for this, we exclusively use Musicbed.com for our songs. Musicbed is incredible. Go check it out and let us know what you like.
A GOOD FIT FOR YOU IF:
Highlight films can vary in length, but in general, it depends on the amount of time we are at a wedding. For example, a full coverage package (8–10 hours) or even multiple days could result in a highlight film that is closer to the 10-minute mark or longer. Smaller packages, such as elopements where we are only with our couples for around 6 hours or so, will have a shorter highlight film, around 4–6 minutes.
A GOOD FIT FOR YOU IF:
Yes! We love to travel. Most of the weddings we document are in New Orleans and Lafayette, Louisiana, but we have been so incredibly privileged to travel all over the world to document weddings. Currently, we have been to France, Italy, Canada, Mexico, and a handful of states to tell our couples’ love stories. If you’re planning a destination wedding, we will fit in perfectly.
A GOOD FIT FOR YOU IF:
Absolutely. In fact, Erin and Geoffrey both started as luxury wedding photographers and have personally seen how important it is for the videographer to work extremely well with the photographer. We love the collaboration, and it drives us to be better wedding filmmakers.
A GOOD FIT FOR YOU IF:
The editing time can vary depending on the season of work we are in. However, we know how important it is that you see your wedding films soon. So we have developed a process that helps us be as creative as possible while still delivering the film within 4 months. We are always working hard to reduce this time frame even further.
A GOOD FIT FOR YOU IF:
Most of our packages do include a second shooter already. But yes, having a second shooter is always a fantastic idea. Not only does it guarantee that we capture more footage on the wedding day, but it also means we can be in multiple locations at once. For example, the bride and groom getting ready, or having that second camera up for the ceremony to capture not only a center shot but also a close-up of our couple's faces. (Think how impactful this is during the vows.) There are so many benefits to having that second shooter.
A GOOD FIT FOR YOU IF:
Of course! We love making our films specific to each couple that we work with. Please give us your input, as this helps us best tell your story! We can’t wait to hear what you’re thinking.
A GOOD FIT FOR YOU IF:
We are not just storytellers. We make real CONNECTIONS with every couple we work with.
We do this so that everyone feels like themselves and comfortable around us even when we have a camera in our hand.
