Laurel is drawn to the colorful, the sweet, and the quietly hilarious. With roots in music video direction, her approach to wedding filmmaking is refreshingly untraditional. Shooting entirely on Super 8mm film, she finds magic in the unexpected, forever favoring personality over perfection. For over a decade, she's had the privilege of documenting love stories around the world - from the cobblestone streets of Cartagena to the alpine peaks of Aspen to the terraced coastlines of Capri.
On a wedding day, she likes to keep a low profile - more observer than director. She's most interested in the in-between moments: a shared glance, a sudden laugh, the way two hands squeeze… Her process is intuitive and collaborative, guided by the unique energy each couple brings. To keep her work creatively inspired and soulfully personal, she takes on a small number of weddings each year.
