Wedding Video on Super 8

2 years ago I moved from Wisconsin to Minnesota. I then had to start rebranding my website to aim towards all things Minnesota. As a Minnesota wedding videographer, I believe that wedding films should be more than just a digital memory—they should be an emotional experience that transports you back to the magic of your special day. That’s why I offer something really unique: authentic Super 8 and 16mm film wedding videos.

What’s super 8 film? Super 8 film is the original camcorder back in the 1970’s Movies used to be filmed on film. Specifically 35mm film. 35mm film is the measurement of the width of the film strip. The larger the measurement the more detail in the image. Super 8 was the response to consumers wanting to capture memories in a simpler way.
