Luxe, Lush, and Cinematic

Without Feeling Overproduced

You’ve invested in a beautiful, intentional celebration—thoughtful florals, meaningful rituals, a venue that actually feels like you. My job is to honor all of that with a cinematic film that feels timeless, not trendy, and emotional without being over‑dramatic.

We Speak the Language of Celebration

Neal & Thuy, the husband and wife duo, are the heart behind Fern & Feather Studio, but it’s Neal’s eye and story sense that quietly drive the films. As lead cinematographer, he brings a calm, observant presence and a deep feel for emotion and timing to every wedding he shoots. Outside of weddings, Neal has crafted emotionally driven films for brands like Cartier, Facebook, Harvard Business School, National Geographic, and BBC—work that’s sharpened his instincts for narrative, pacing, and visual storytelling at a very high level.

All of that experience filters back into Fern & Feather: refined, cinematic imagery paired with honest, human moments, so couples end up with wedding films that feel as considered and impactful as the best documentary or branded work—only this time, they’re the ones at the center of the story.

Emotion‑First, Detail‑Rich Narrative

Your wedding isn’t just a schedule of events, it’s a series of deeply felt moments. We build your film around those emotions, the way your voice shakes during vows, your parents’ expressions, the laughter no one else noticed. Then weave in the details you obsessed over: florals, fashion, décor, and setting. The result is a story that feels like you, not a generic highlight reel.

Cinematic, Not Trendy

Trends come and go. Your wedding film shouldn’t. I focus on cinematic composition, honest color, and thoughtful pacing—so your film feels like a beautiful, timeless piece of cinema rather than a fast‑cut, trendy edit that will date itself in a year.

Editorial & Documentary Style

You get the best of both worlds: scenes that look like they belong in a magazine, and candid footage that shows who you really are. We pay attention to styling, light, and composition, but I never stage emotions. The film feels elevated and artful, without losing its heart.

Love Stories

Shweta & Tayo

Shweta’s a storyteller by trade, so choosing a wedding film team wasn’t about checking a box, it was about trusting someone to carry her narrative the way she would. In this film, we didn’t just follow her day; we honor her voice, her pacing, her emotional beats, and the quiet way she and her partner move through the world together. The result feels like a story she could have written herself, only this time, she’s inside the frame.

If you’re the kind of bride who cares about words, timing, and how everything will feel years from now, this is what Fern & Feather does best: translating a carefully crafted wedding into a cinematic, emotionally honest film that respects your standards as a storyteller and matches the level of intention you’ve poured into every other part of your celebration.

Seetha & Chad

They honored two worlds in one weekend: a vibrant Hindu celebration and a heartfelt Jewish ceremony, each rich with its own rituals, families, and expectations. For a couple carrying that much culture and meaning, choosing a film team wasn’t just about pretty footage, it was about trusting someone to understand and respect both sides equally.

Fern & Feather steps into that role quietly and confidently, weaving both traditions into one cohesive, cinematic story instead of two disconnected events. If you’re planning a wedding where multiple cultures, ceremonies, or faiths come together, this film is proof that Fern & Feather can hold all of that complexity with care, clarity, and beauty.

Meaghan & Phuc

This Cape Cod wedding film is pure joy from start to finish, sun‑soaked, fun‑filled, and packed with personality. Fern & Feather leans into everything that made their day uniquely theirs: the easy coastal charm, personalized details tucked into every corner, and those unforgettable surprise performances that had everyone on their feet. Instead of feeling chaotic, it all flows like a story, each moment framed so you can feel the laughter, the anticipation, and the energy of the room.

That’s the difference here: Fern & Feather doesn’t just “cover” a wedding; they know how to translate a lively, detail‑rich celebration into a cinematic film that still feels polished and intentional. If you’re planning a high‑end New England wedding and you want all your carefully crafted details and big, joyful moments to live on with this kind of elegance and heart, this is exactly the level of filmmaking you’re booking Fern & Feather for.

Mona & Brock

This film is a perfect example of how Fern & Feather is willing to do something completely different from a “typical” wedding video. Instead of just cutting together pretty moments, this St. Maarten destination wedding is built around a dramatic voiceover that turns the whole weekend into a narrative: part love story, part cinematic travel piece, part celebration with their closest people. The wedding festivities blend seamlessly with scenes of a vacation‑like escape—sun, sea, friends, and family all woven into one cohesive, atmospheric film.

If you’re planning an elevated destination or weekend‑long celebration and you want a film that feels like your story rather than a template, this is what Fern & Feather does best: bespoke, cinematic storytelling that captures not just the ceremony, but the entire experience of being there.

Kind Words from Our Couples

  • “A Life-Changing Experience with Thuy and Neal – True Artists Behind the Lens.

    We are beyond grateful to Thuy and Neal for their incredible artistry and professionalism during our wedding. From the very first meeting to the delivery, working with them was an absolute dream. They didn’t just take videos; they captured emotions, moments, and memories in a way that words can’t fully describe.”

    —R&J

  • “They knew where to catch the beautiful moments while we were overwhelmed with chaos and timelines.

    They hyped us and made us feel so comfortable around a camera throughout the whole process. They captured the emotions in each picture and video so no matter when we see the pictures and video we always feel what we felt on our actual wedding day”

    —T&J

  • They are such a dynamic duo - both exceptionally talented, kind hearted, passionate about their work, and super fun to work with.

    Going into this, we didn't realize how much time we'd spend with our photo/video team - they were literally with us at all times capturing every single moment - so we were grateful that we had such a fun, passionate team alongside us. But more than that, they truly felt like family and kept us calm throughout the weekend when our nerves were all over the place.”

    —S&C

  • "Neal and Thuy are a dynamic duo! We could not have asked for a better team to work with.

    They were extremely responsive prior to our wedding, which was so helpful and comforting. They did a great job capturing every important moment during our wedding day and also keeping us calm and at ease. We recently received both our highlight video (done by Neal) and photo album (by Thuy) and both are phenomenal. I would HIGHLY recommend Fern & Feather for any event.”
