Wedding Films · North Idaho
Every City2Forest wedding starts with a conversation. We learn your backstory, how you met, and the little things only the two of you know. Your story helps create a written love story, an album of original songs, the backbone for the film of your wedding day, and a website that holds it all.
Featured Film
Mallory grew up in Naples. Kayle grew up just up the road in Moyie. For years they lived inside the same small corner of North Idaho without ever quite meeting. Her neighbor was his good friend. He remembers her goats.
Their film blends a shoot from a few weeks before the wedding with the wedding day itself, filmed on the ground and from the air and scored with music written for them. Their six song album tells the rest: a coffee shop courtship, a new truck, and a parking lot halfway between two homes.
Wedding Film
Two from Bonners Ferry and a love that just made sense. The film captures the ceremony, the people who came, and the celebration they had been building toward. Four original songs carry their story, from the first text to a proposal on a balcony in Tokyo.
Wedding Film
A boy from Idaho, a girl from Idaho, and a dating app her sister opened without asking. He recognized her last name before her face, because their families had been friends a decade earlier. Their film, and their six song album, tell a love story that showed up sooner than anyone planned.
First Looks
A first look is filmed away from the schedule, the guests, and the aisle. Just the two of you, seeing each other for the first time. It is often the quietest few minutes of the whole weekend, and the one couples come back to most.
How It Works
Most wedding films show what the day looked like. Ours are built around who you are, so the film, the music, and the story all sound like you.
Before the wedding we sit down with you for a relaxed, unhurried conversation. How you met, the near misses, the inside jokes, the moment you knew. Everything else is built from this.
We write your love story as a long form piece, in your words and ours, so the people you love can read how you got here.
Your story becomes an album of original songs written just for you, released on Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube Music.
We film the heart of your wedding day on the ground and from the air, sometimes adding a shoot in the weeks before, then edit and score it with original music. Every film is made for your wedding and no one else’s.
Your story, your songs, and your film live together on a custom website built for the two of you. Share it with guests before the wedding and keep it long after.

Every wedding is priced around the time it takes to tell your story well. Choose what fits your day to see a starting range, then save it and we will be in touch.

Kind Words
What impressed me most was the amount of time he took to truly get to know Morgan and Dalin. He didn’t just show up with a camera. He took the time to learn who they are as individuals and as a couple.
A wedding day goes by unbelievably fast, especially for the parents. Watching Troy’s video allowed me to see moments I had missed and relive the ones I never want to forget.
Paula Burt · Mother of the bride, Bonners Ferry
As the mother of the bride, I cannot say enough wonderful things about Troy and the incredible job he did capturing my daughter and son-in-law’s wedding day.
From the very beginning, Troy was incredibly easy to work with. What impressed me most was the amount of time he took to truly get to know Morgan and Dalin. He didn’t just show up with a camera. He took the time to learn who they are as individuals and as a couple, how they met, their journey together, and the little details that make their relationship uniquely theirs.
One of the fun things Troy did was he created personal songs about their love story. The songs incorporated pieces of their relationship and their journey together, adding an incredibly meaningful and emotional element to their wedding video. It was such a unique touch and showed just how much thought, creativity, and time Troy put into telling their story rather than simply creating another wedding video.
Those personal touches were evident throughout the entire film. Troy captured not just all of the important moments, but he also caught the little things: the expressions, laughter, emotions, and interactions that, as a mom, mean more than I can put into words.
A wedding day goes by unbelievably fast, especially for the parents. There are so many things happening that you simply cannot take it all in. Watching Troy’s video allowed me to see moments I had missed and relive the ones I never want to forget.
You can tell Troy puts an incredible amount of time, thought, and heart into his work. He didn’t simply document their wedding day; he took the time to understand their love story and then found a way to tell that story through both film and music. The result is something that feels incredibly personal to them and something our entire family will treasure forever.
As a mother, there are very few things more meaningful than being able to watch your daughter’s wedding day again and see her happiness and love captured so beautifully. I am incredibly grateful to Troy for giving our family that gift. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a videographer who is talented, creative, easy to work with, and genuinely invested in making each couple’s wedding story their own.
Troy, we both just bawled our eyes out watching that. Thank you so much. Truly, the video is better than we could’ve imagined.
Mallory & Kayle · Naples, Idaho
I LOVED it. That video was even better than I could’ve imagined. It captures everything so perfectly! Thank you so much for capturing the best day and making a video we can look back at and cherish.
