Family Lens Films

Family Lens Films Welcome to Family Lens Films! Offering Wedding and Event Videography services for Cape Breton. My name is Ricky McCarthy and I'm a storyteller at heart.

I focus on the in-between moments as much as the big ones. Let’s start telling your story! Family Lens Films is more than a name — it’s a reminder of what really matters. Weddings are just the beginning. They’re the first chapter in a story of family, connection, and legacy. My goal is to capture that story with heart, with care, and with the kind of intention that someone who lives it every day can bring.

My daughter and I visited the Lighthouse in Louisbourg this weekend and I always find it to be quite calming. Visiting the trail always feels like a reset — the sound of the waves, the open horizon, and the quiet reminder to slow down and take things in. It’s one of those places where everything feels a little simpler.

Not sure if it would be allowed but it sure would make an incredible backdrop for a wedding ceremony😍

Happy Valentine’s Day!

This one means a lot. Our friends at Green Hills Farm are celebrating 10 years of memories!

There are places that become part of your family story — the spots you return to year after year, where the kids run ahead, you run into old friends, and where memories just seem to happen. Green Hills Farm is one of those places. 🌲✨

Getting to help tell their 10-year story was an honour. ❤️
Huge congratulations to Jenna, Dave and the entire Green Hills family on a decade of community, tradition, and holiday magic. Thank you for trusting me to help capture the heart of it.

Here’s to the memories made — and all the ones still to come. 🎄🎬

Excited to share this one!
Especially given today is Halloween🖤🧡

Amanda and Ben’s wedding day was proof that love shines brightest in the rain. Despite the downpour, laughter and joy filled every moment as family and friends celebrated their Halloween-themed reception in true festive spirit. Be sure to stay watch to the end as we kick it into another gear around the 3:40 mark!

From heartfelt private vows to a night of unforgettable fun, their day was a perfect blend of romance, laughter, and a little spooky magic🖤🧡
