Hi 👋🏼 it’s me, Kierra! It’s been a hot minute since I’ve reintroduced myself on here and had some updated photos!

I have been filming weddings since 2020 and entering into my *4th* wedding season! I love making cinematic highlight reels and teasers, but also understand that you want a full recap of your day! So I offer feature films too, just like what your parents have!

A little about me:
🤍I’m mama to my two daughters, Margo and Ridley.
🤍When I’m not at weddings or editing, I spend my time raising my two littles.
🤍I have a tricolor corgi, R***r. In fact, anything British, I am very partial for. No idea why.
🤍I am Hawaiian. I grew up on the mainland, but love to visit all the extended family when I can.
🤍I am a cancer survivor. I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer while pregnant, and had a total thyroidectomy Jan 2023 while mid pregnancy with Ridley.
🤍I have my doctorate in chemistry from the University of Rochester. Decided to take a bit of a pause on that career path when my first daughter was born, and found wedding videography better suited the work life balance and creativity and flexibility I so very much craved.
🤍I shoot on a Sony a7iii as my primary camera, with a 35 mm lens on it all except for the wedding ceremony when I switch to a 24-70 mm.
🤍My favorite part of the post production process is listening back to the vows and speeches. Yes, I may cry majority of the time while finessing your words, but I am obsessed with and remember my couples best through their vows. They’re all beautiful and I am so honored to be able to capture them for you to re-listen to for years to come.
🤍I am willing to travel! I love to film weddings in upstate NY, Syracuse, Buffalo and beyond! I don’t limit myself to Rochester. There are too many beautiful venues scattered all over western and central NY to pass up!

Cheers to the start of the 2024 wedding season!

And many thanks to for capturing me at my best. You worked your magic and I am forever grateful!
