MEET YOUR STORYTELLER & FELLOW DREAMER

Hi There ! I’m Dan.

The way I see it, your wedding day should feel like the best day of your life — not a film shoot — and honestly, that's what makes my job so fun. I blend into the background, vibe with your whole vendor team, and break out mybest ninja skills to basically become the world's most invisible guest so you can just BE present without a camera in your face. And while you're busy being blissfully in love, I'm quietly catching every laugh, every tear, and every moment you'll treasure forever.

That’s why I created Dreamlight Wedding Films — to tell real love stories, NOT just a doc film wedding.

“Choose a job you love…. and you’ll never have to work a day in your life!

a little about me…

I’m a true New Englander — born and raised in Massachusetts. After graduating from UMass Amherst, I followed my passion for filmmaking to Los Angeles, where I spent over 20 years working in the television and film industry across major studios.

During those years, I learned storytelling from some of the most talented creatives in the industry — experiences that now shape every wedding film I create.

Eventually, I returned home to New England, bringing Hollywood-level filmmaking experience back to the place where my own story began.

Today, my passion is simple: creating wedding films that allow couples to relive their day exactly as it felt — not just how it looked.

Every wedding is unique. Every couple has a story worth telling. Being trusted to capture one of the most meaningful days of your life is something I never take for granted.

Together with my small team of dedicated filmmakers, we focus on creating a relaxed, stress-free experience while crafting a film that we hope  you’ll watch for years, anniversaries, and generations to come.

FUN FACT ABOUT ME:

When I’m not using my camera gear my next favorite gear is:

Golf Clubs
E- Bike
Grill
Blender
*not necessarily in that order!

Real Moments. Real Emotion.

Timeless Films.

Your wedding day should feel effortless — not staged, rushed, or overwhelming. as your wedding day filmmaker I go far beyond holding a camera I help create an environment where you can truly relax and stay present in every moment. From the beginning of the day to the final dance, I work seamlessly alongside your planner, photographer, and vendor team to keep everything flowing naturally and stress-free. You won’t need to worry about where to stand or what to do next — I gently guide when needed, step back when moments unfold on their own, and make sure your day feels smooth, joyful, and completely yours.

I also believe themes and magical moments happen when you feel free to be yourselves. That means laughing loudly, jumping and skipping around with joy, holding each other close, or sneaking away for a quiet breath together without feeling watched or directed. I film with an intentional yet unobtrusive approach — like a  ninja moving through the day — capturing real interactions as they happen. Even though people are very camera savvy now a days I enjoy quietly blending into the wedding celebration day to allow space for authenticity, allowing family and friends  to live fully in the moment while I preserve the energy, excitement, and emotional high that makes your wedding unforgettable.

While you’re soaking in every second, I’m also paying attention to the people who matter most to you. The hugs from family, the laughter between lifelong friends, the spontaneous dance floor moments, and the subtle expressions of love often missed in the rush of the day all become part of your story. My goal is to capture not just how your wedding looked, but how it felt — the romance, connection, and genuine emotion shared between you and everyone around you — creating a film that reflects your unique love story with honesty, warmth, and timeless authenticity. My ultimate goal is to create your favorite movie of all time!
