They both began life on the west coast, and migrated with their very large families to the east. When they got engaged and Luke asked Christiana how she pictured her life, she said she wanted a small farm in the middle of a city, and they're working on making that dream come true. They live in sunny Wilmington, NC, and plan to call this place home unless they can find a way to move with all their family, friends, and the beach. They have two hilarious and bright baby boys named Mathis and Beck, five chickens with names that sometimes change, and one barn cat called Friday.

Luke has been filming weddings since college, but didn’t know it was an option for a career until he met Christiana, whose first gift to him as a girlfriend was a set of business cards to convey she believed in him and his talent. She brought to the table a feminine eye, and a background in business and art. They realized they complemented each other with different strengths and similar goals, and as their relationship grew so did their vision for Light Cannon Films. Now, they are both full time wedding filmmakers and full time parents, in a constant relay of editing, traveling, filming, diaper changing, cooking, cleaning, laughing, and serving the best clients ever.

I would have never believed that my whole wedding could fit into just 5 minutes but you did an incredible job highlighting every important moment of our special day! After watching our video, it was almost like we were in that day all over again!

I cannot possibly thank you enough for the gift you have given us. This gift is truly invaluable. I didn't think I would cry... but boy, did I cry through the whole thing!! I cannot WAIT to share this with everyone who was there, and those who were celebrating from afar.

There are truly no words to articulate how amazing Luke, Christiana and the Light Cannon team are. My husband and I really debated having a videographer and we are so happy we did. What Luke captured is the best gift I could have asked for. It is a video that we will truly cherish forever!

It's evident  Luke and Christiana are passionate and enthusiastic about videography, which is shown in their work. From the moment Christiana responded to my inquiry email, my husband and I were immediately impressed and knew we wanted them to be a part of our big day. We were amazed with how our video came out. They captured not only all the small details, but they also reflected our personality throughout the video. Light Cannon Films was worth every penny!

what does the booking process look like?

We require a deposit to secure your date, but you can take a little time filling out the contract. We are happy to help you choose the right package for your unique wedding. Send us a message so we can get you started with some info!

when do we receive our final product?

During our busy season it can take up to 3 months to receive your final film. Lots of love and creativity is channeled into each project, and we never rush the process. We assure you it’s worth waiting for.

do you travel?

Yes! Our team loves to travel and we try to make it affordable for you to have us at your wedding wherever it may be. Drop us a line to tell us about your dream destination.

how do you select music for highlight films?

We sort through a large database of licensed music until we find the perfect song to enhance the emotions and personality of your wedding. We think of it as a soundtrack rather than a music video, because we want your story to speak louder than the song. Check out our films to get a sense of how we use music to suit the tear-jerking moments, the dance floor come alive, the serious, the funny, and the sweet.

what's it like to work with your team?

We’ve been told we’re pretty fun. We absolutely love our job and hope that it shows in how we operate as a team. One of our mottos is to always be in the moment, ready to capture the big events but also small details that you’ll never notice. During the intimate moments we are very respectful and personable, but for the majority of the day, we blend into the background and you won’t even know we’re there.
