Films impact our lives with the stories they tell. Photographs will show ‘how you look’ on your wedding day but a video should ‘tell who you are’. Ken and Terri Kurita excel at documentary film-making and interview driven-storytelling. Our passion and vision is to craft video stories that are timeless. We have a discrete eye that creatively captures the details, emotions and essence of your event. Our genuine interest in connecting with families guarantees unobtrusive and sensitive coverage. Contact our studio for availability.
“Stories touch our hearts because everyone has a story. There is no end to the power of blending sights and sounds to create a story and preserve a legacy.”
