I can't speak enough about how wonderful Amari Video Productions was for my wedding. Not only were they incredibly kind and easy to work with leading up to the wedding, but on the day of, they made me and my husband feel so comfortable. Our videographer was so excited to take us to different locations around the venue and make sure we got the perfect shots, and was working with our photographer to do this as well. And we absolutely loved the final product. We felt like it captured the essence of our wedding so well, and made us emotional all over again. Prior to the wedding, we had filled out a questionnaire based on what we wanted, and they delivered exactly what we asked for and even went beyond. We had booked the package that includes the shorter video with the whole speech/toast and ceremony edit included separately, and are so glad we did. Now we can watch the most important parts of our wedding again and again, and even see things that we didn't notice ourselves the first time! Overall, I had an incredible experience with Amari and would recommend them to anyone, again and again. Thank you so much to this team!!
Photos and videos were great. The people we worked with were very professional, and they listened to our preferences and really made the effort to incorporate them into the final product. Would recommend

“To be honest, I barely noticed they were there and I mean that in the best way! They incorporated themselves with the guests without being too in your face with the camera.” - Kim & Laeth

“The final product was insane! We have no idea how they so beautifully and perfectly tied the whole day up into a 6 minute video. It brings us back immediately to that day. Booking Amari was one of the best decisions we could have made! We are forever grateful!” - Emily

From the first day I was introduced to wedding photo & video, I was absolutely enthralled. Here was a profession where people would commission you to create art for them - documenting the most special day of their lives - creating family heirlooms that they and their loved ones would cherish forever. I could not believe it was a real job, and one that you could make a career out of!
So, after spending a few years apprenticing with other studios, my wife and I founded Amari Productions in 2011. It has been my passion project ever since!
One immediate change I wanted to bring to our industry was to break the model of having a single team, whose price would raise exponentially with experience. As someone who’s always loved to teach & coach, and who’s passionate about the art form of our storytelling, I saw an opportunity to build a team, and to pass on what I had learned to my fellow creatives.
Fifteen years later, and our unique model has allowed us to bring together so many stakeholders - our family of creatives who have a place to call home & make art, our couples who can expect luxury level experience and quality at a fraction of the cost, and my wife and I - who over time have been able to start a family and have our weekends to be with our kids, all while nurturing this amazing team.
