About Purple Thistle Films

Purple Thistle Films

Filmmaker

Hi! Please contact me through my website inquiry form. I am a wedding filmmaker and award winning documentary filmmaker, shooting digital and Super 8 film. I make digital highlight films, documentary edits, and Super 8 films. I consider wedding days exciting opportunities to step into communities and make something beautiful that reflects who people are and their experience. Love all love.

I made a documentary film that went to festivals around the world, played at the Museum of Modern Art, won multiple awards and was written about in The New Yorker. Because of my experience as a documentary cameraperson and birth doula, I know how to bring a sense of calm, groundedness and an appropriate level of assertion to weddings.

10/10 would recommend Amanda!!!
We are so thankful for Amanda’s attention to detail, kindness, and beautiful video storytelling. She was with us to document our entire wedding day, and provided a ceremony edit & raw footage a couple months later. I’d highly recommend Amanda if you are looking for a videographer who genuinely wants to help create something beautiful for your special day! Thank you, Amanda!!!

Amazing film!
Amanda was the perfect pick for our wedding! She was so nice throughout the day and even took some stunning drone shots before the event even started! We loved our final film so much.

Loved our experience!
Amanda was very thoughtful, kind, and communicative throughout the entire wedding planning process for us. She worked with our budget, schedule, venue, and guest list, and delivered heartwarming footage that we will cherish for decades to come! She helped make the day go smoothly, she expertly navigated a complicated wedding day schedule, and we loved working with her. We highly recommend Purple Thistle Films for all of your videography needs!

Amazing
Amanda is amazing, she truly acts as a fly on the wall, you don’t know she is there but it is the biggest compliment, she still manages to capture every moment. She brings a calm to a wedding day that is so needed when things can often be hectic. She is a true teammate

Amanda was a joy to work with!
Amanda was a joy to work with, we were so stressed out through this whole process, but Amanda was calm, cool, and we were delighted with the end result.
