Not only do we film weddings, we get to follow our couples into the next chapters of their lives. 🤍

We had the absolute pleasure of capturing one of our wedding couples’ next adventure: their long-awaited new addition to the family. 🥹

This has been such a beautiful pregnancy, filled with so much love, excitement, happiness and family. Thank you for trusting us to help you share another incredibly special announcement with the world. It means so much to be invited back to tell another chapter of your story.

They came to us with a concept they had seen and loved, and together we brought it to life, recreating the idea while adding our own personality and our own stylistic choices in the edit.

From wedding days to growing families, we feel pretty lucky that our work sometimes gets to become part of people’s lives beyond the day we first meet them.

Congratulations, Shaina and Kial . We cannot wait to meet the newest member of the family!

From windswept beaches in Tofino to quiet forests on Vancouver Island, mountain landscapes, and hidden corners throughout British Columbia, we travel across the Pacific Northwest capturing weddings as they truly feel: intimate, wild, and deeply personal.

Here is the first look at Natalie and Philips Wedding Film!

We cannot express enough how much love and passion went into this wedding film. And we mean it when we say film. This is a 9-minute Highlight Film, and in all our years of filming weddings, we have never delivered one quite this long.

After more than 12 years of documenting weddings, and growing into my mid-30s, I (Danie) have started to understand these moments differently. When I first started filming weddings, the demand was often for a quick highlight. Three minutes or less. Something beautiful that captured the best moments of the day.

And while there is absolutely a place for that, I find myself wanting something more now.
I want to preserve the day.
I want to tell the story of the day.
I want you to hear the voices, feel the energy, remember the people who were there, and experience what it felt like to be in that moment.

Because these films aren’t just for the couple to watch next year. They’re for the families who will watch them years from now. For the people who weren’t there. For the children and grandchildren who will want to know what that day looked and sounded like.

To us, that’s what makes a wedding film an Heirloom.

We were incredibly honoured, and genuinely so proud, to have been chosen to document Natalie and Philip’s wedding day. And this film would not have happened without the wonderful referral from Alicia Keats, or the deep connection we built with Natalie and Philip from our very first meeting.

Some couples simply trust you with their wedding.
Others trust you with their memories.
Natalie and Philip gave us BOTH, and we don’t take that lightly.

After more than a decade behind the camera, it’s time to share something that’s been quietly growing behind the scenes...

**Eastowest Wedding Films has become Ember & Alchemy Films.**

This wasn’t a decision made overnight. Eastowest has been in this industry since 2014. It’s where I learned, grew, celebrated hundreds of incredible love stories, and built a career I’m deeply grateful for.

But over the years, my filmmaking and the team has evolved.

We have grown into a team becoming less interested in creating wedding videos that follow a formula, and more inspired by crafting films that feel honest, cinematic, and deeply personal. The quiet glances. The imperfect laughter. The moments that can’t be staged.

**”Ember” represents the warmth that remains long after the celebration ends the enduring love between two people and the memories that continue to glow long after the last dance.**

**”Alchemy” represents transformation, turning fleeting moments into something that lasts for generations.**

Together, they reflect the kind of films we want to create: timeless, emotional, and entirely unique to every couple.

To everyone who trusted Eastowest with your story... thank you. You helped shape the filmmaker and business that Ember & Alchemy has become.

Here’s to the next chapter. 🤍

A Magical Week in Mexico: Jenelle and Davis Tie the Knot!
___________________________________________________

Jenelle and Davis, (my cousin and her husband)

It was truly an honor to be a part of your special day in the picturesque setting of Mexico. The love and warmth you both radiate are so real, and it was awesome to capture the magic of your wedding day.

Having known Jenelle for so long, seeing her walk down the aisle was a heartwarming experience. From our days as carefree kids, dressing alike and sharing countless giggles, messing with our sisters, to this momentous day, your journey together has been beautiful. Davis, spending more time with you during our family vacation in Mexico was a pleasure, and witnessing the love you share with Jenelle.

As I look back on your wedding film, the memories flood back, and a wave of emotions rushes through my body. The magic of your first kiss, the shared laughter, and the genuine connection between you two were truly enchanting. Being the one to document this special day was a privilege, and I cannot express how excited I am for both of you as you embark on this new chapter together.

May your marriage be filled with joy, excitement, and countless shared adventures. I hope that the love you celebrated on your wedding day continues to grow, creating a lifetime of cherished moments. Whether you find yourselves in our hometown or exploring each other's cities, I look forward to the times when our paths cross.

Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness, love, and unforgettable moments.

With love,
Danie

Capturing the magic of my sister’s wedding on a sailboat in Kelowna was something I was honoured to have been able to capture. To witness her special day surrounded by breathtaking views and our family alongside on the pontoon boat was beyond words.

My ‘little’ twin sister is so much more than just family – she’s a beacon of care, kindness, and inspiration. Her hard work and dedication to personal growth leave me in awe.

In every moment, she radiates love and resilience. Also, look at how fricken beautiful is is! Cheers to the incredible woman she is and the beautiful journey that lies ahead and the lovely partner she has that I now can call my brother.

Here’s to capturing memories and cherishing the bond that goes beyond being siblings – it’s a lifelong friendship.

Andrew and Kenji || 2023

In 2020, just before the COVID-19 pandemic struck, Andrew and Kenji approached us with a beautiful plan to travel from Korea to British Columbia for an intimate elopement. Little did we know, their journey would be full of twists and turns due to the pandemic.

Over the years, we had to navigate constant emailing back and forth about rescheduling and postponements, but in 2023, their dream became a reality as they finally made their way to Vancouver. On top of a stunning mountain, they exchanged vows and officially tied the knot!

This journey was made even more special by the incredible collaboration with Erica Miller Photography , Young, Hip And Married , and SKY Helicopters Inc.. We feel incredibly honored to have been the chosen video team to capture the magic of Andrew and Kenji's love story.

Thank you, Andrew and Kenji, for allowing us to be part of your unforgettable day! 💍🏔️❤️
