A bride and groom share an intimate moment on fallen logs in a wooded setting, captured in black and white photography.
Testimonials

"Holly captured the raw joy of our wedding day. She captured the essence of our wedding day and went beyond the bounds of a typical wedding video.  My husband and  I will be able to look back on this video for years to come and see the smiles, the moments of joy and the peace we shared throughout the day. But beyond that she also captured everything we didn't see while we were off taking photos or dancing on our own: our friends laughing, our parents and grandparents dancing and funny stories our friends and family had about us.

If you're looking for someone to truly capture the essence of your wedding day and all its special moments, look no further than Hollydays Weddings & Elopements."

Testimonials

"My spouse and I have been on a number of hiking adventures where we were fortunate enough to have Holly join us. She takes amazing video footage and photo shots. Her work is unique because she shoots her work from different perspectives that makes for interesting viewing. Recently Holly travelled with us to Iceland and her filming was top notch. She would get in front of our team and obtain photos and video that a casual photographer or videographer would never think of. Book with Hollydays!"

Testimonials

"Hollydays Videography filmed my wedding the summer of July 2022 and it was amazing. The whole wedding was covered, from getting ready to us leaving the reception. Holly was fantastic throughout the whole process. She was very communicative before hand, getting a clear picture from us about what we were looking for. Throughout the day, Holly worked hard to film so much content. The end product was amazing. We received several videos of different lengths that encompassed all parts of wedding. Holly went out of her way to interview guests and take video of every single little thing that happened. Watching her videos, we were able to see things that we had forgotten about. I cannot recommend a videography company any higher than Hollydays."

Testimonials

"While in the process of researching wedding videographers, we knew from our very first conversation with Holly that she was the videographer we were going to go with, hands down. Holly's ability to seamlessly blend into the wedding as if she was one of the family and capture genuine moments was amazing. She personifies everything we wanted in a videographer, professional, friendly, personable, courteous, well prepared, and timely with a keep eye for filming special events and celebrations. You can truly understand that she loves what she does based on her attention to detail and the quality of the product she delivers, simply incredible. Holly has gone above and beyond, and we have recommend Holly to family and friends based on our exceptional experience."
