Unique wedding films for exceptional couples.
Serving New York City and beyond.
"We Didn't Even Know You Were There"
First Day Films was started with one goal in mind: to tell our clients' stories as elegantly and unobtrusively as possible. Nothing artificial, nothing "cheesy."
We have all been to events where the video crew are the most noticeable people in the room. The bright lights, the uncomfortable interview requests...
We believe that distractions like these put you and your guests on the spot. So we do our best to avoid them entirely.
Relax. Enjoy yourself. You won't know we're there.

In their own words.
John and team did such a wonderful job!! They captured every moment and I hardly noticed they were there which is what I was looking for. We wanted to freely enjoy our day which we did and can't thank John enough!
First Day Films was incredible to work with. They made my husband and I feel incredibly comfortable during our special day. There was a massive rain storm incoming during our wedding, and John and his team were so accommodating. Our video is so perfect and so natural to us!
We worked with First Day Films for our wedding in May and cannot recommend them enough! John made the entire process extremely smooth. The camera work and editing made it feel truly cinematic in the best possible way.
John and his second videographer, Ed, were extremely professional and delivered a top notch product. Like John had told us earlier, we really didn't even notice that they were there! John's background in filmmaking shone throughout — my wife still watches them regularly almost six months after our wedding.
If you're going back and forth on whether or not to hire a videographer and are considering First Day, don't think — just do! The First Day team was barely noticeable during the big moments, tons of fun during prep, and documented our wedding in the classiest way possible.
The absolute nicest, professional, and down to earth people who will create the most amazing wedding video for you to relive your wedding day over and over again. My favorite part was that they are so skilled in not being in your face on your wedding day but still capture every moment perfectly.

The people behind the cameras
First Day Films is a small New York City studio, filming weddings across the city and far beyond.
We keep our crew intentionally small — the people you plan with are the same people behind the cameras on your day.
No bright lights, no staging, no interruptions. Just a calm, discreet presence and an eye for the moments that matter.
