The quiet pull of a moment that reaches the heart and draws you in — unfiltered, authentic, and deeply felt.

At Call It Captivation Films, we’re continually inspired by the lives we get to witness. Your stories draw us in — their honesty, their quiet power, their texture. We create films that reflect that truth, shaped with patience and heart, and always made to feel like they could belong to no one else. Since 2016, this has been our way — to approach every story with reverence, curiosity, and craft. And over the years, that devotion has only become more rooted.

“Watching our film, we really feel seen and understood. Matt so thoughtfully captured us. We could tell that he carefully thought about all the details that were important to us and meticulously crafted it into a film. And those drone shots - WOW.
I tear up every time I watch our highlight because all of those little details were noticed and seen. Things that we spent so much time thinking about or working on, that could have been so easily overlooked were captured and artistically weaved together.”

“Before hiring Matt and his team, I probably checked a hundred videographers based in California and they absolutely stood out. They are not like the other videographers who will give you the typical wedding cookie cutter videos but they really try to understand your love story. I'm very very picky with my vendors because I also come from a branding/marketing background. Matt took the time to listen to my vision and made me feel at ease. Our wedding teaser, highlight and formal film was everything I wanted and more! I highly recommend that you book them ASAP !”

We were impressed with their professionalism and their attention to detail. They had such an ease in their direction that made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. When it started to rain during our reception they kept rolling with us all to capture the magic.
The videos speak magnitudes on their own of how meticulous and detailed they are on bringing that same emotion, felt on our wedding day, into film that we can replay over and over for years to come. We are so grateful to have had them during our wedding and would recommend Matt and their team to anyone who wants a memorable film.”

Hey friends, I’m Matt.
I’m drawn to the raw, unguarded moments — the small things that might be missed but carry so much meaning. I value legacy — the way stories live on through memory, through film, through those who love us most.

My hope is that when you watch your film, you feel seen — honestly, intentionally, and with heart. I create for couples who cherish their story and everyone woven into it.
