The Filmmaker
I'm a wedding and elopement filmmaker based out of Utah and California. My process is simple: I show up, I observe, and I capture your day exactly as it unfolds. No scripts. No directing. Just real moments, told with intention.
I film it. I edit it. Start to finish, your story stays in the hands that captured it. No handoffs, no assembly lines. That's why I only take on about 12 weddings per year. Every couple gets my full attention, on the day and through the months of editing that follow.
When I'm not behind the camera, I'm skiing, playing tennis, or enjoying a cocktail somewhere quiet. The calm I bring to your wedding day isn't an act. It's just how I'm wired.
All are welcome here. I proudly celebrate every gender expression, skin color, sexuality, and body. You don't need to fit a mold to be celebrated.
Why Tanner
I film it. I edit it. No handoffs, no assembly lines. Your story stays in the hands that captured it.
No scripts. No "can you do that again?" You live your day. I capture it as it happens.
California-based, worldwide availability. Tuscany or Tennessee — I'll be there.
A short teaser film delivered within days of your wedding. Something to hold you over while the full film is crafted.

Common Questions
It means I don't direct your wedding. I observe, anticipate, and capture moments as they unfold. No staging, no scripted shots, no "can you do that again?" The result is a film that feels true—not performed.
Yes. I'm based in California but film destination and out-of-state weddings regularly. Travel fees vary by location. Whether it's Tuscany or Tennessee, I'll be there.
Approximately 12. This is intentional. It ensures every couple gets my full attention—on the day, and through the months of editing that follow.
I guide the music selection. We'll discuss the mood and feeling you're drawn to, and I'll curate tracks that serve the story while meeting licensing requirements. This isn't a highlight reel set to your favorite song—it's a film. Trust here is essential to the process.
Teasers: 4-6 weeks. Final films: 16-20 weeks. I believe in thoughtful editing over rushed timelines. Your film will be worth the wait.
