Not every love story needs a wedding to be celebrated. Sometimes, you just want to capture this season of your relationship exactly as it is. Our Super 8mm mini sessions are designed for engagements, proposals, anniversary sessions, and couples who want a film that feels like a love letter. Whether you're planning a surprise proposal, celebrating your engagement, or simply want to document your love story, Super 8 film adds a nostalgic warmth that digital cannot replicate. As an engagement videographer who specializes in 8mm film, I create short films that capture your connection in the most authentic way possible. These sessions are about presence, not posing. You don't need to perform for the camera, just be together, and
I'll capture the rest.

Madeline & Michael
"My now-fiancé surprised me by having a super8 film taken of our engagement and I am so beyond words. Kiley made sure to catch all the important moments as well as the little details that only a trained eye would notice. She captured our engagement and love story so beautifully and now we have this amazing video to look back on the rest of our lives. I promise super 8 is a worthwhile investment. You won’t regret booking Kiley!"
