Each wedding and each film is different from the last. I’m not a fluffy person by nature, and a wedding film shouldn’t be either! Each moment in my films is intentional, whether it’s to capture the feelings of joy & excitement, or raw vulnerable emotions – I want each couple to feel seen and their story to be told in the most genuine and authentic way. It’s always my goal to reflect the personalities of my couples in their films and to tell a story that is true to who they are.
Our Wedding Style Is:
My wedding videography style is authentic and custom. I don’t fit any one of my couples into a template – I treat each story differently from the last because none of my couples have the same one. I base each film around the story and journey that led the couple to their wedding day, and also the energy and emotions that are prominent throughout their wedding day.
Our Personality Is:
Upbeat, outgoing, flexible, genuine.
We Love Being a Part of the Wedding Industry Because:
At the root of my passion is true nostalgia. I have been drawn to saving memories ever since I was little. My mom scrapbooked every first day of school, every birthday party, every new karate belt, and so on. And my dad had his handy cam in tow for every holiday. As an adult, I’m so thankful to have these memories. I believe in the history of each family and a wedding is one of the most important pieces of each family’s history. As we grow our families, our legacy is one that should be captured and told.
And of course… the party! The energy and emotion of a wedding day are something that can’t be replicated. Getting to celebrate my couples is such a privilege!
What Makes Our Business Stand Out From Other Vendors Is:
I never want my film to feel like it’s the same as the last. I want each couple to feel seen and their story to be told in the most genuine and authentic way. It’s always my goal to reflect the personalities of my couples in their films and to tell a story that is true to who they are. There is no template.
Our Pricing:
Spring 2023 wedding collections start at $4,100.
Meet Shannon
I was raised around Sunny St.Pete and even though I’m always planning my next trip, there’s still nowhere else I’d rather live. If only we could add mountains and fall leaves to the warmth and sunshine of the Tampa Bay Area!
At the root of my love for weddings is nostalgia, and I credit that largely to how I grew up. I have been drawn to saving memories ever since I was little. My mom scrapbooked every first day of school, every birthday party, every field day, and so on. And my dad had his handy cam in tow for every holiday. I naturally fell into these habits as I got older and my friends always teased me for being the “mom” of the group, constantly showing up with my digital point & shoot camera. Over time, through college, filmmaking competitions, and marketing jobs, I found myself in the wedding world. I’m pretty dang happy to be here, telling stories of all the raw, genuine, fun, emotional, wild, and real celebrations of each wedding and each couple’s love story.

Tropical Waterfront St Petersburg Wedding | Isla del Sol Yacht Club
We wanted a videographer who could make a video that would capture more than just posing and have a more creative flare to it.
When we scrolled through Shannon Kelly Films’ videos, we could see how each and every video was so tailored to each couple and their personalities. From the music to the specific shots and speeches she incorporated in each video, we really knew she’d be able to make a great video for us!
After talking to her on the phone, I felt like we were best friends, and she was going to be such a fun addition to our big day!
Romantic Pink Tampa Heights Indian Wedding | Armature Works
Someone who was personal and caring, able to help capture those special moments. Shannon Kelly Films was an absolute delight, very personable and kind.
We fell in love with Shannon. She took the utmost care to make sure to capture all those special bits and moments. Absolutely excellent.
Elegant Rustic Pink and Champagne Downtown Wedding | Tampa River Center
We looked for someone who could tell the story of our day that we would want to watch a million times over. We loved Shannon Kelly Films from the first time we spoke with her.
She wanted to know a lot about us as a couple, our style, and how we wanted that portrayed in the video. She was professional and organized, and it was apparent that she had thought out her vision for the video even before our big day. We knew from the get-go that she would thoughtfully craft something we could cherish forever.
Elegant Dark Blue Downtown St. Pete Wedding | The Birchwood
We wanted someone who could capture all the emotion of our special day and put it together into a memorable video. Not only did Shannon Kelly Films do that, but Shannon also used moments of the nine years of us together. It felt more like watching a movie than your normal wedding videos, which was exactly what we were looking for. She catered to us, making sure that our ideas were heard
We loved how Shannon captured individual moments leading up to the vows and tied them together with highlights from the reception. Her work makes you feel as if you were a guest at the weddings she films, and she’s an incredible storyteller with filmmaking. The final video we received blew us away because it allowed us to live out the excitement and the emotion of the entire day again.
