These are the fragments that compose a life together

The way morning light filtered through the room as you got ready. 

Your mother’s hand trembling slightly as she adjusted your veil. 

The sound of your best friend's laughter cutting through the bridal suite tunes.

The weight of the rings in your palms before you exchanged them.

We're drawn to the way memories used to be preserved

Grainy photographs with handwritten notes
    on the back—names, dates, places
          scrawled in careful cursive.
            Home movies that wobble and blur
              but capture something achingly real.
                There's an honesty in those old records,
               an unpretentious documentation of life
             as it was lived. To anyone else, those
          artefacts might seem like
      random fragments.
    Unfamiliar faces.
     Forgotten occasions.
         But to the people in them,
             to their children
                and grandchildren,
                    they are utterly priceless.
                            They're a window into
                                 who these people were,
                                      how they  loved, 
                                           what mattered to them.
                                              That feeling is what
                                              drives our work.

"if you want a videographer who will deliver something far beyond wedding video stereotypes and clichés, book modern memoir. 

When I discovered Modern Memoir, I knew they had the talent and passion to capture exactly what I had envisioned for my wedding film. All of our communication and meetings leading up to the wedding were exceptional, and the team was on point all night! My whole family can't stop raving about how amazing it turned out. Most importantly, my vision and requests were honored. I love how the film captures our story perfectly. They are worth every single penny."

"working with hannah was an absolute dream. she truly went above and beyond in every possible way."

She captured moments we didn’t even realize were happening and made us feel at ease with her direction. I am not great at being in front of the camera and she really helped us with what to do. Everyone on her team was so kind and helpful; they made us feel comfortable and blended into the background. If you want a videographer who genuinely cares and who has the talent to turn your day into something unforgettable, Hannah is the one. Absolutely exceptional! 100000/10, highly recommend!!

We believe that marriage is sacred. That love is a gift. That your wedding day is a covenant, a celebration, and the beginning of a legacy. Everything we create is informed by these beliefs.

Story-driven wedding films

Accordion Menu
Faith as Foundation

We see your marriage as more than a legal contract or social celebration. It's a sacred union that reflects something eternal. Whether your ceremony includes traditional vows, readings from Scripture, or personal expressions of faith, we approach these moments with reverence and care. We strive to preserve the spiritual significance of your commitment to each other.

Family as Legacy

Your wedding day brings together generations. Parents who raised you. Grandparents who shaped your family's story. Siblings who grew up alongside you. Children and future children who will one day watch this film and see where their story began. We pay attention to these connections. Because your marriage isn't solely about you two; it's about honoring the past and building the future.

Artistry with Intention

We're inspired by classic cinema, by the way light and shadow tell stories, by composition that draws the eye and stirs the heart. But we never prioritize aesthetics over authenticity. Every frame is carefully considered, yet nothing is forced. We work with what's there: natural light, genuine emotions crossing faces, the spontaneous moments of connection. Our technical skill serves your story, never overshadows it.

Timeless, Heirloom-Inspired Design

Your wedding film should feel just as meaningful thirty years from now as they do today. We achieve this through classic composition, natural color grading, and storytelling techniques that have stood the test of time.

Let’s tell the story of a lifetime

I'd love to learn about your wedding day: what you're envisioning, what feels most important, and how we can craft a film that honors it all. Let's find a time to connect.
