Incredible Videography! 😍

Wow! There really isn't enough words to thank Ryan & the Aperture Lane team for their amazing work for our wedding. From our consults Ryan was incredibly warm, shared great feedback and even met us for dinner to review our wedding day timeline and key moments we wanted captured. By the time the wedding day came it felt like we already knew Ryan. He arrived on time, kept a positive vibe all day and was right in all of the action. Our wedding teaser was posted 48 hours after the wedding which was such a beautiful hint of what was to come from our wedding feature film. The wedding video perfectly captured the love and essence of our special...

The wedding video perfectly captured the love and essence of our special day. It is evident that the team worked with passion because the results are truly evident in the final product. We can't wait for more of life's milestones to capture, Aperture Lane will always be our go to!!

Aperture Lane is the dream team you need for your wedding day

Ryan and his team at Aperture Lane are the real deal! From the first intro video call, Ryan made us feel so comfortable and instantly showed us that Aperture Lane was the right team to capture our love story. 5 mins into our couple photo shoot our worries about feeling awkward in front of the camera were gone. They were able to effortlessly capture our love, playful, and silly sides. And then shocked us with some beautiful editorial style shots we never thought we could pull off - but we did! The communication leading up to and on our wedding day was top tier. This was the key to us being able to just live in the moment because...

The communication leading up to and on our wedding day was top tier. This was the key to us being able to just live in the moment because we knew Aperture Lane had us. They understood the type of couple we were, the vision we had and in the end the pictures were beyond our expectations!

We would 100% recommend Aperture Lane to anyone getting married. If you do go with them please really consider adding their videography package as well. If there was one thing we would do differently is add this because it really would have been the icing on the cake.

Everytime we think back to our wedding day we’re always in disbelief of how stress free the day was. This is all because we had
Aperture Lane as one of our vendors - our dream team.

Great vendor

We had a wonderful experience with Ryan/Aperture Lane from the very initial call. On the wedding day, they were professional, on-time, courteous and extremely reliable. We couldn't be happier with the work they produced and would highly recommend this vendor.

Book ApertureLane! They’re the BEST!

Words can’t describe how impressed we were with the entire ApertureLane team. Ryan (their fearless leader) took extra care in getting to know us well in advance of our wedding day, he was friendly, personable and professional all at once. He made us feel comfortable from day one and put our minds at ease, tailoring a package for us that would capture all of our treasured moments. On the day of our wedding, Ryan and his team were rays of sunshine. Their energy and enthusiasm made our day even more special. On top of bringing the fun, the team was extremely professional and captured every moment while simultaneously blending into the background. As if things couldn’t get any better,...

Professional, Calming and Creative

Our wedding photos and video, expertly captured by Ryan, Lisa and Tristan with Ryan as the lead photographer, are extraordinary. Ryan's remarkable ability to ease stress during the intense moments of wedding preparation, especially for my maid of honor, brought a sense of calm and joy to our day. The team's professionalism and warmth, combined with their creative vision and attention to detail, resulted in stunning, heartfelt visuals. Each cherished moment was beautifully immortalized, allowing us to relive our special day through these timeless captures. We're deeply appreciative of their exceptional work and highly recommend Aperture Lane for their services.

Above and Beyond

Aperture Lane and company, are just that good at what they do. With Ryan at the helm, he made us feel very comfortable from the beginning. At no point when talking about price or our vision did he make us feel like we weren't valued, or not heard. From start to finish, everything was transparent and we had a blast working together the entire time. Would recommend to anyone again.

Beautiful videos! A vendor that stands out from the rest!

Choosing Aperture Lane as our videographer was the best decision we made for our wedding. We were in awe of the amazing quality of our final product, and watching it had us both in tears (in a good way of course!). Every element was executed so perfectly from the image & sound quality, to camera work, to how beautifully all the moments were captured and edited. They have a way of making every moment feel special! Not only did they capture all the love, emotions, and big moments, but also little moments that you may not have expected to see again or remember, but make you smile when you watch them.

Ryan is not only an exceptional videographer, he is a lovely person that cares for the couples he works with and takes the time to get to know you as a couple. He was consistently responsive, professional, and accommodating throughout the entire process. Our wedding was one of the ones affected by covid, and we had to make some changes to our vision. Ryan was very kind, patient, and supportive in times of difficulty and we are so grateful!

We are truly so impressed, and thankful to Ryan and his team for helping us capture memories that we will look back on, and appreciate for many years to come. We can’t imagine our day with any other videographer, and would highly recommend Aperture Lane!

Aperture Lane's reply:

Karen,
Thank you so much for the kind words! I mean it when I say it was an honour to journey with you two through all the ups and downs. I'm so happy with the way things turned out and I'm excited that you are too! Thank again!

It's insane to think you are hiring someone for their business and they end up being a part of your family.

My wife and I were researching in Fall 2021 for a wedding photographer/videographer and a friend of mine who is a fellow videographer recommended Ryan from Aperture Lane. We knew that this recommendation came from a place of respect for another person's talent. After watching several of Ryan's videos on YouTube, we were amazed by how flawlessly he captured the emotions from the wedding and converted it into a short story. We instantly reached out to Ryan and he scheduled a greeting session over video call. Ryan was charming, knowledgeable, and professional. He worked with us to share our vision and worked backwards to figure out logistics for a wedding that happened in two countries and 7 events.

We instantly reached out to Ryan and he scheduled a greeting session over video call. Ryan was charming, knowledgeable, and professional. He worked with us to share our vision and worked backwards to figure out logistics for a wedding that happened in two countries and 7 events.

Ryan and his team provided us with an engagement shoot where our vision was for it to be captured during a snowfall. He was flexible and extremely understanding that the weather was not cooperating. On the day of the engagement shoot, he bared the cold and took magazine-worthy shots that could impress anyone. He put together social media footage that we were able to share as well.

After 2 events in Toronto, Ryan and Tristan flew out to the Dominican Republic with 95 of our family and friends and were ready to photograph and take videos of 5 more events. He worked with us every day he was there. In between events, we found Ryan and Tristan hanging out with our family and friends and playing games like old pals. It warmed our hearts knowing that they were so comfortable with our family.

Our final video and photographs were available after the wedding through a special portal online that Ryan provided. This was an amazing way to share our footage with our loved ones.

Our final thought. We can't imagine ourselves working with any other person. Ryan created an environment that allowed us to be ourselves while having fun planning a wedding. Not once did we feel stressed as he helped keep us organized and thought out every detail. Ryan captured all the excitement of the wedding perfectly. Every time we watch the video/photos we feel the joy all over again, it's like reliving the wedding through his lens.

Thank you Aperture Lane for bringing our vision to life!

Outstanding!!

I wanted my wedding day to be captured with all the real, raw emotions so that when I looked back, I would be able to relive the day again and again. Ryan did exactly that and much more. The wedding day, as nervous we both were, Ryan made us feel such at ease. Him and his team are extremely personable and professional. I still cannot get over my wedding video, I keep watching it over and over again because it is so BEAUTIFUL!! My family and I are OBSESSED with the tremendous job Ryan did. Ryan, you and your team truly have a unique talent and I am so excited for all the couples who are lucky enough to have you be part of their special day!
