Hi! This is Andi, a videographer who, after 7 years of making news documentaries and nonprofit videos for social causes, decided to step into wedding films. Currently serving couples in the Washington D.C. metro area and beyond. You can find pricing and package info on my website.

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn’t have asked for a better videographer for our wedding! From start to finish, Andi was professional, dedicated, and incredibly thoughtful, ensuring that our special day was captured beautifully. Right after we signed the contract, she sent us a detailed questionnaire to get to know us as a couple—our story, our style, and the specific moments we wanted to highlight. This level of preparation reassured us that she truly cared about making the video personal and meaningful. About a month before the wedding, she proactively reached out to request the venue’s floor plan, demonstrating her commitment to planning ahead and making sure every shot was perfectly thought out. On the wedding day, Andi arrived an hour early to get familiar with the space and even took some breathtaking outdoor shots before the festivities began. Her presence was so natural and unobtrusive, allowing us to fully enjoy the day while she captured everything seamlessly. Throughout the event, she worked tirelessly to document not just the big moments but also the little details and emotions that made our wedding unique. One of the things that makes Andi truly stand out is her background as a former reporter and documentary filmmaker. Her storytelling skills are evident in every frame—she has a keen eye for capturing genuine emotions and weaving them together into a narrative that feels raw, real, and deeply personal. She didn’t just record our wedding; she told our story in the most beautiful and authentic way. When we received our wedding video, we were absolutely blown away. It was beyond anything we could have imagined—every moment was beautifully filmed and edited, creating a cinematic and heartfelt masterpiece that we will cherish forever. What truly stood out was Andi’s creative touch—she included interesting and unexpected moments that showcased her artistic eye and deep understanding of human connection. Most importantly, the video felt authentically us—it captured the emotions, the joy, and the essence of our relationship perfectly. We are beyond grateful for Andi’s work, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and passionate wedding videographer. If you want someone who truly cares about your story and will go above and beyond to create a stunning wedding film, Andi is the one to choose!

Hi, I'm Chad. My goal is to create something captivating that you can cherish for a lifetime, while at the same time giving you and your guests an amazing experience. My films are tailored to you, authentic to your story and your wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
Chad and Lauren are not only phenomenal humans, they are incredible at what they do and their work is unmatched. I was determined to find a videographer that could create a wedding video that was not so cookie cutter and like the rest. After our first conversation with Chad and Lauren, I was certain that this wasnt going to be another cookie cutter wedding video. I trusted they would create something special and unique and they did more than that. From our first conversation to our wedding Day, Chad and Lauren were extremely responsive, personable and made the entire process so easy. Their personalities and excitement were exactly what we needed and we were so happy to have the both of them with us on our wedding day. Chad and Lauren took time to get to know us, understood our vision and captured our wedding day perfectly. The video we received left us (and our family and friends) speechless and in tears. It is something we will cherish forever. No words can describe the amount of fun, happiness and true joy they were able to capture so perfectly throughout the day. We cannot recommend Mist and Moss enough. Thank you Chad and Lauren— you are a dream team and we are so grateful for you both!!!

I'm William, a dedicated and passionate photographer/videographer based in Washington, DC. My love of photography was born out of my love of travel.

When I'm not behind the lens, you'll find me at my local movie theater or spending quality time with my family and friends.

Our video/streaming package went off without a hitch, and Brian even offered to tack on a little extra coverage after our ceremony.

Mike filmed our wedding in December 2021 and was absolutely amazing! He worked seamlessly with our photographer, day-of coordinator, and DJ, which made everything run so smoothly. I got my video just days after the wedding, and it was beautifully put together. Even a year later, I’m still so happy with it—especially after I lost the link and Mike got it back to me right away! I’d recommend this company 100%!

We used Conner for our wedding on May 3, 2025. We were looking for a DJ and our photographer who had worked with him multiple times had recommended him…. Fast forward we found out he also did videography and we booked him for both- and we are so glad we did! He was so amazing, along with our photographer, they worked together so well and made sure we stayed on schedule and got all the moments captured we wanted. We almost didn’t go with videography but I’m so glad we decided to! He did such an amazing job with both the video and DJ. If we could do the day again, we would 100% have him again! He is so great to work with and so professional, I would recommend him to everyone! Thank you so much Conner for capturing the best day of our lives, the video was even better than we ever imagined.

From first meet to final delivery, you can expect a genuine experience that hopefully feels like working with a friend more than a vendor. We offer both Super 8 film and camcorder-style footage in addition to our standard 4K delivery. <3

Working with Cat as our videographer was an absolute joy! From the moment we met her, it was clear that she was not only incredibly talented but also a wonderful person to have by our side on our wedding day. Her easygoing nature made it so comfortable to be around her, and she truly felt like part of our celebration. Cat always had a smile on her face, which radiated positivity throughout the day. She captured every moment with such deliberate ease, making it all feel effortless. From the glimpses we've seen so far, it’s clear she perfectly encapsulated the overwhelming love, joy, and happiness of our wedding. You can genuinely feel the emotion in her film, bringing those precious moments back to life for us. We are especially grateful for Cat's suggestion to add on Super 8 film before the wedding; we had so much fun with it throughout the day and know that it will add such a beautiful and personal touch to our final video. We can’t wait to see the full film to relive our day again, knowing it will be a cherished keepsake that we will treasure for years to come. Thank you, Cat, for your incredible work and for capturing our day so beautifully!
