Time capsule films for memory collectors. Our ability to capture and preserve some of our most pivotal life moments really is a gift. Every film is intended to act as a time capsule for my couples to re-live in 25 years.

Kyrie was amazing from start to finish! From our introduction call I knew she was such a great fit for us and would match our energy and sass that we thrive on, on our special day. She’s your best hype girl and absolutely will get your partner out of their shell if one of you is camera shy. My husband hates being in front of a camera and Kyrie got some of the BEST shots and scenes we’ve ever had of him, and we’ve been together almost nine years now. I would see Kyrie again in a heartbeat just to hang out if she’s ever in our neck of the woods of Oregon. Our video is so special and including the pre and post ceremony interviews and family interviews was such an amazing treat we’ll cherish forever.

Everything from the style in which we edit, the music, to the bits of conversation we capture throughout the day go to tell YOUR story.

Awarded Best of Zola
We truly cannot say enough good things about Jeremiah and Chad with Park Life Films. The same-day edit they created for our wedding was unreal—hands down the highlight of our entire day. I’ve watched it on repeat for the last two weeks and still can’t wrap my head around how they pulled off something so beautiful, emotional, and cinematic in just a few hours (to premiere at our wedding nonetheless!). It completely blew us (and our guests) away. Everyone is still talking about it! Beyond their insane talent, Jeremiah and Chad are simply the kindest, most calming presence you could hope for on your wedding day. With all the nerves and chaos of the morning, having them around felt like having two incredibly warm, reassuring friends by our side. Still on the fence? My husband and I literally moved our wedding date just to ensure we could work with Park Life Films—and it was the easiest and best decision we made during the whole planning process. I’m honestly trying to come up with excuses to throw another wedding just to hire them again. We’re endlessly grateful for the way they captured our story. If you’re lucky enough to have them available for your date, run, don’t walk. Or simply, pick a new date! These guys are magic!!

He was so amazing, along with our photographer, they worked together so well and made sure we stayed on schedule and got all the moments captured we wanted. We almost didn’t go with videography but I’m so glad we decided to! He did such an amazing job with both the video and DJ. If we could do the day again, we would 100% have him again! He is so great to work with and so professional, I would recommend him to everyone! Thank you so much Conner for capturing the best day of our lives, the video was even better than we ever imagined.

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!

I became indulged in the story-telling of my wedding couples. Being surrounded by the excitement, sometimes nervous couples, and their loving families and friends made the filming such a rush. Then to have the honor to edit a film where their personalities and love shine through is the greatest privilege. I want to take them on a journey back in time to the most epic day where they laugh and cry with all their family and friends. I make films that last the ages. I love to think about how my couples might show their kids or even grandkids someday.

  • Storytelling style

  • Serves McLeansboro, IL

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.

Paul and his assistant were absolutely amazing. I actually found him when googling videographers in my area and LOVED all his work as I could tell he took true pride in his films and caught all the little details of the weddings he videoed. When setting up a meeting, I realized he actually lived 4 hours away from me... BUT that didn't stop him! He was willing to travel with his assistant for a VERY cheap price and was there the whole time. He actually asked ME if he could come earlier to ensure he got all the little details on camera and capture every minute of us getting ready, etc. He was quick to respond throughout the whole planning process prior to the big day as well. Paul was in school for cinematography at the time which is very evident in his work as you can tell that film is his true passion in life through his work. We had no idea he was even there and he stayed until the very end (little did I know) to ensure he captured everything on film. As most brides (and grooms) do, we put a LOT of planning into our big days and a lot of thought into every single little detail. Of course your own wedding day is such a blur you never even get to appreciate all your hard work... but thanks to Paul, I am able to see every little part of the wedding from the place settings to all the little signs we had everywhere. He did an amazing job capturing every moment and I love my highlight film. Thanks to him, I get to witness and relive what was my dream wedding over and over again... I knew I wanted to hire him when his highlight films of complete strangers brought me to tears! He is now videoing my brother's wedding and a family friends... So Yes.... I HIGHLY recommend him :)"
