Ryan Feister Wedding Films is an award winning cinematic wedding, elopement, and destination videographer serving Virginia and beyond.
We're Ryan & Jenn Feister
Pronounced “FEEster”! We’ve been married since 2015 and have 2 sweet girls, Kyleigh and Madeline (videographers in training!) and a one-eyed puppy named Pip.
We've been fortunate enough to work together in different facets most of our marriage, traveling to over 30 states and around the world. We've met some of the most amazing people and heard both unbelievably heartbreaking and inspirational stories. We believe everyone was created for a purpose and has immeasurable value.
There is a quote that goes, "a photo isn't taken, it's given," and this is something we truly believe for video as well. So we want to say THANK YOU for entrusting us with your story. We can't wait to be a small part of your journey!
About Ryan
LEAD VIDEOGRAPHER, EDITOR
Ryan (the one who shows up on your wedding day) has been a full-time videographer, photographer, and editor since 2017. His work has taken him around the US and to over 20 countries, with the unbelievable privilege of telling peoples stories! When he isn’t working, Ryan is tackling the never ending house projects, biking, recording music, getting married over and over again to mommy in pretend weddings organized by Kyleigh, or skateboarding (mostly falling) with the girls on their homemade skatepark!
About Jenn
ADMINISTRATIVE COORDINATOR
Jenn (the one who works with you through the planning process) is a former elementary teacher with a background in administrative work. Jenn is detail-oriented and organized. Her desire is to understand your unique vision as you plan the most important moments of your day. When she’s not working with couples, she’s spending time with her little princesses making messes in the kitchen, getting her hair done by Kyleigh, sipping coffee made by Maddie, trying to keep plants alive, or catching up on the latest crime drama.

What people are saying ...
Ryan is AMAZING. His work is unmatched. He truly captured our day so well. He included many small, beautiful details but still managed to capture the entire day in a short film. Ryan was incredibly helpful throughout the day, he was willing to go the extra mile to ensure that we had a wonderful video and that things went off without a hitch. I have gotten so many compliments on our video. I cannot begin to explain how happy I am to have hired such a talent videographer for our big day. Hire Ryan!!! You will NOT regret it!
When looking for videographers I was nervous because the price was so high for such short clips that weren't what I was looking for. Finally, I came across Ryan. I loved his films and after speaking with him I was sure of my decision! On the day of our wedding it was a cold rainy day and so I was nervous about how photo and video would turn out. Ryan was AMAZING! My husband and I said some of our favorite moments of the day was after the ceremony with Ryan and our photographers. It was relaxed and fun and just such a breather after a stressful morning! We got our videos back so quickly and Oh. my. gosh. My husband and I cried like we did on our day, experiencing all of those emotions all over again. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever watched and it was mine. The video exceeded every expectation I had and left me speechless. For anyone struggling to fid a videographer, Ryan is the best choice you can make. You will NOT be disappointed. I am so lucky to have this piece of my wedding day that Ryan captured so beautifully to look back on forever. Thank you Ryan!
Ryan captured my wedding day so beautifully!!! My husband and I wanted to always be able to re-live our wedding day through this video, and that's exactly what he created for us. Our personalities, love, and friendship were shown just how we hoped. We still can't stop watching it. He made the process very simple and made sure to know what we wanted to be prioritized throughout our day ahead of time. He was incredibly friendly and easy to work with; I can't recommend choosing Ryan to capture your wedding day enough!!
