About Films by Phillip

Films by Phillip

Chief Filmmaker

Hey! I'm Phillip, a Durham-based commercial Cinematographer that brings that bold energy from big household known-brands into wedding films! We fell in love with filming weddings, but noticed that modern wedding films feel flat, slowly-paced, and boring. Then we asked ourselves: Why don’t we bring that boldness and energy from commercial projects into our wedding films? Storytelling is everything in wedding films. Every couple’s love story is unique and intimate. We utilize immersive camera movements, energetic music, and captured vows/speeches to craft films that are truly cinematic. Let's set up a chat and talk about your love story!

We treat our brides as if they were the creative director on a big project, because their love story IS a big project! We are very hands-on with our couples, and treat them like they are a commercial client. Because of this, we LOVE to offer fast-turnaround social media "bits" as part of our packages, so you can show off moments of your big day to your friends and family. Ask about our Social Media Package for more info!

    Phillip was a delight to work with; my husband and I are both camera shy and he made us feel so comfortable. He was fun and engaging and kept things fun during the shoot. He gave feedback and helped make the experience very fun! I can’t recommend him enough:

  • A Phenomena Videographer!!
