We hired Flower & Oak for our wedding in August to do photo and video and we cannot say enough good things about them! The photographer and videographer were so fun, talented, creative, and professional. We still cry every time we watch our full video and even teaser video (which is less than a minute lol)! We would hire them again in a heart beat for any event and would recommend them without hesitation!

Sam & Sarah are amazing! Not only are they friendly, professional, and responsive, but they are amazing at what they do. They arrived to our venue before we were able to and captured beautiful aerial shots with their drone, as well as shots of our reception space. They worked extremely well with our photographer and executed every request we had of them, plus much more! We received SO much content from them when it was ready for us. Rewatching all the videos they made was like reliving our day. They included voice overs from speeches in our main video as well, which was so great to hear the voices of a few of our wedding party members and parents.

We send camcorders for your friends and family to film candid moments across your wedding weekend — from getting ready to the dance floor and everything in between. Afterward, our editing team shapes that footage into a thoughtful, nostalgic wedding video that feels true to your celebrations. We believe meaningful wedding video should feel personal, accessible, and rooted in real moments.

Where do I start with Wedding Weekender… if you’re looking for a camcorder for your wedding/event and to capture all the silly, raw, fun, beautiful moments, Wedding Weekender IS IT. My maid of honors surprised us with this gift and the WW team was so helpful from the beginning. Our friend knew exactly what to do with the camera, it was small and compact, and people even felt comfortable passing it around to get different POVs. We shipped it back and what we got 2 months later was beyond our wildest dreams. They made it everything we wanted: nostalgic, fun, loving, and such a perfect snapshot of our weekend. I even had 2 small edits after they delivered the video and they had it back to us right away. The team processing and editing these videos truly have a magic touch. This was priceless and we can’t wait to relive our wedding through this video forever and ever. Thank you for being a part of our special day!

Hey there 👋🏼 I’m Makenzie, but everyone calls me Kenz or Kenzie! I started off filming with a small digit camera or my flip phone (lol) in junior school, making "music videos" with my family and friends. Overtime it expanded to filming weddings (on a much upgraded camera) and then eventually taking on the challenge of doing both photo and video. Every session when capturing true emotion and love between couples and/or families, it brings me joy knowing that these physical memories will be with them forever!

Kenzie is amazing. I’m the one that dreads and hates getting my picture taken, but Kenzie make the experience so fun and natural. Not only was she personable and fun to take to but the outcome of the pictures blew our mind. She is extremely talented. If your looking for a wedding photographer or a photographer for any event, BOOK KENZIE!!! It will be the best decision you’ve made.

Paul Hairston is an award winning and nation-wide wedding, documentary and commercial filmmaker for over 13 years. He loves anything and everything about human storytelling and creating impact through the medium of film. He strives to capture your special day with earnestness, trust and top shelf visuals. Throughout his career he has worked to blend vérité filmmaking with a production value those stories and emotions deserve, while never getting in your way. Providing painterly and elegant coverage with an unobtrusive but attentive presence that documents every unique detail is Paul’s goal with every film.

We had such an excellent experience with Paul on our wedding day! He was so communicative leading up to the day, as well as the actual wedding day. He was friendly, professional, punctual and worked so well alongside our photographer for the day, filming all of the lovely moments we may have otherwise missed (dance floor, cocktail hour, etc). He also filmed our first look, which was one of the moments that I most wanted to have on film, and made it such a fun experience. We watch our video every year on our wedding anniversary (it's been almost 13 years!), and we look back so fondly on that day because of the sweet moments that Paul captured - and have also shown it to our kids, who love to watch it over and over again. We highly recommend Paul to also capture your wedding day!

Hiring Jodi for our wedding was one of the greatest decisions we made for our big day.

Jodi didn’t just take photos—she captured every emotion, every detail, and every unforgettable moment in a way that still blows us away. The way she sees light, angles, and spontaneous moments is next level. Our photos look like they belong in a magazine, yet still feel completely natural and true to us. She’s incredibly easy to work with, gives amazing directions, and has this magical ability to make everyone feel comfortable—even the people who “never take good pictures.” Spoiler: with Jodi, they do!! Our family and friends keep talking about how beautiful our photos are and how great Jodi was throughout the entire day. She blended in effortlessly, kept everything running smoothly, and delivered memories we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives. If you’re able to book Jodi, do it.
