Your wedding is one of the most significant days of your life and it deserves to be documented from the heart. Velvet Letters Cinema Co. specializes in Super 8mm wedding videography that captures the nostalgia of real film.
I believe that the best wedding films do not come from perfect posing but from couples who feel safe enough to simply be themselves. When you choose Super 8 for your wedding, you are choosing a film that feels like a memory.
From the nervous excitement of getting ready to the tears during your vows, the laughter on the dance floor to the quiet moments no one else noticed, I am there to document every meaningful moment while you focus on being present.

The Super 8mm Wedding Videography Process
Austin & Ariel
"Our film is nothing short of breathtaking—the Super 8 style adds such a nostalgic, intimate feel that makes every moment feel even more special. From start to finish, Kiley was professional, thoughtful, and so easy to work with. She truly has an eye for storytelling, and our video perfectly encapsulates the emotions and joy of the day. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a timeless, beautifully crafted wedding film."
Caitlin & Noah
"Kiley was beyond professional, kind, and incredibly talented. From the very beginning, Kiley communicated with us every step of the way, making the entire process seamless and enjoyable. When we received our final wedding film and photo stills, we were completely blown away. We know these memories are something we’ll treasure for the rest of our lives. Choosing Kiley was one of the best decisions we made, and we cannot recommend Velvet Letters Cinema Co. highly enough!"
