Purple Thistle Films

Hi! I am a wedding filmmaker and award winning documentary filmmaker, shooting digital and Super 8 film. I am also a birth doula/photographer. I consider wedding days exciting opportunities to step into communities and make something beautiful that reflects who people are and their experience. Get in touch if you are in search of an artist with great instincts who can encapsulate your day authentically, reflecting the spontaneity of the moment. I focus on four offerings: Digital raw footage only (colored and assembled) / Digital 3-6 min films / Super 8 films / Digital 40-70 minute films. Happy to travel for an aligned vision. Love all love.

Because of my experience as a birth doula and documentary cameraperson, I know how to bring a sense of calm, groundedness and an appropriate level of assertion to weddings. I made a documentary film that went to festivals around the world, played at the Museum of Modern Art, won multiple awards and was written about in The New Yorker. I shot and recorded sound for the entire film on my own, as a one-woman band, as I do for almost all weddings.
