About Purple Thistle Films

Purple Thistle Films

Filmmaker

Purple Thistle Films is a women-owned film company based in New England, and open to travel. I would consider it a privilege to capture the story of you and your circle of people, all together for this one incredible day. Upcoming travel plans: New York City July 13th+14th Northern Vermont August 6th-30th Europe January+February

Hello! I am Amanda Rose Wilder of Purple Thistle Films. With almost two decades of experience filming weddings, I bring a sense of calm, vulnerability, and an appropriate level of assertion to wedding days. I develop a rapport with couples and their guests so that my presence feels safe and welcome. I am always at the right place at the right time to capture planned and spontaneous moments. I hold myself to a high standard when it comes to production quality, and never rush through an edit. I am comfortable making a 3-5 minute Highlight Reel, a 40-60 minute Documentary Film (with or without music), and anything in between. I love what I do.

    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!

    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!
