Ryan Southwell Films

Think back a bit and tell me you haven’t sat through dozens of wedding videos that fell under the category of either “mushy” or “ultra-cinematic drama.” That may be the reason why hiring a videographer for a wedding typically comes well after the photographer, dj, florist, catering… it’s one of those jobs that got a bad rap no thanks to the 80s and 90s.

But things are different now. We strive to find some level of originality, find a story to tell, and find a way to take it to a different level each time. When we were still a bit new a ways back with the films “Amy and Dan” or the now Utah phenom “Jana and Billy”, those mini films I’d say would fall under “stylish” or “deep love”. The Tennessee film unraveled a “dreamy” tale with a great ending. The music has all been great and the people were phenomenal. But not everyone fits the same mold. That’s why we try to tailor to your personalities, and if you are quirky and fun, then that’s exactly what we need to do!

A little while ago we put the word out to entice some fun young couples to do a shoot with us. Lauren and Ben showed up with bell and whistles, and bikes, and twister, and a bag of good times. It’s always fun to go out on the edge and try something new or to climb a higher tree as in this video. Really, who wants to see people kissing and making out the whole time? I say be fun, quirky, and romantic all at the same time. Check these guys out. Oh ya, I think they’ve been married for 7 years. Something about married couples is just a lot of fun. This is titled after the song name, but I could use a little more cowbell at the end.
