Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

Him and our photographer were the dream team working with each other. They captured things that we didn’t know happened or missed throughout the day. We did the Love Story and would 100% recommend that. The videos and turn around time we’re very impressive! If you are on the fence about having a videographer, I would definitely recommend Britt!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

He did a great job of running around to get B roll and captured all of our special moments. He did a great job acting as a fly on the wall when needed and kept us relaxed and in the moment. The final videos (short and documentary) were stunning. They were edited beautifully and easily accessed and shareable. We had a few edits we wanted to make which was absolutely no problem. We even got our videos back before our photos! I also loved that we have access to all of our raw files so we can look back on every moment and hear the true audio.

I watched his videos and found myself sobbing at strangers videos! He made me feel like I knew the bride and groom after just 7 minutes. He's so good! Jimmy will take your wedding video and turn it into the most beautiful story. The video he made for us just so beautifully captured my husband and I's day! It's a video i'll cherish for the rest of my life. I can't wait for our kids to be able to watch it. UGH, seriously hire this man and you won't regret it. Best wedding money we spent. https://www.youtube.com/watch?viVAKZzODr6E
