"It is one year after our wedding and my wife and I are still watching the video; we watch it at least once a month. If you have the chance to hire them, do it!!!"

WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHY ON THE OUTER BANKS

We're a coastal North Carolina team based in Wilmington. Sand in the gear bag and wind in the audio are normal working conditions for us, and the Outer Banks runs on both. We'd love to bring our cameras up there.

An OBX wedding has its own rhythm. A big rental house in Duck or Corolla with everyone you love under one roof for the week. Vows at the end of a dune walkover. Cocktail hour on the deck while the sun drops over the sound. The place carries so much of the film that the finished video feels less like a wedding video and more like a short movie about a week at the beach. The tradeoff is that the banks fight back a little; the wind never really stops, midday sun is unforgiving, and sand finds its way into everything. So we mic vows with wind protection, plan our angles around the gusts, and build the day's coverage around the light.

A travel fee applies for Outer Banks weddings and is quoted per wedding. We come up the day before and stay the night, with enough slack in the schedule that Highway 12 traffic never becomes your problem. Duck, Corolla, Kill Devil Hills, Nags Head, Hatteras, Roanoke Island; if it's on the banks, we'll get there.

WHY HEARTLINE FILMS

Documentary style

We show up without a shot list and let the day lead. We stay quiet, keep filming, and find the story as it happens. Your grandmother laughing in the beach-house kitchen beats anything we could have posed.

Husband-and-wife team

Heartline is Kevin and Haley. We're married, and we film every wedding together. The two people you talk to before the wedding are the same two standing in the sand with you on the day.

Super 8mm film

We load real Kodak stock into a vintage Super 8 camera. No filter gets the grain right. And honestly, few things look better on Super 8 than a day at the beach.

A limited calendar

We cap how many weddings we book. The edits never get rushed, and by the time we're standing on the island with you, we actually know you.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Do you travel to the Outer Banks for weddings?
Yes. We're based in Wilmington, about four hours south. We head up the day before and sleep over so we're rested and ready on your wedding day. A travel fee is quoted per wedding and included in your proposal.
How do you handle wind and audio at beach ceremonies?
Wind is part of the deal on a barrier island. We use lavalier mics with wind protection and position our backup audio carefully. Your vows will come through clean on the recording. We've been filming coastal weddings for years; it's what we're built for.
What are your Outer Banks wedding packages?
The packages don't change for the OBX. The Feature runs $4,000, The Director's Cut runs $6,500, and The Reel (your whole wedding shot on Super 8 film) runs $7,500. The travel fee is added on top and quoted based on your date and where on the banks you're getting married.
What should we know about planning video for a beach wedding?
Timeline matters more than usual. The best beach footage happens during golden hour, not at noon when the sun is directly overhead and harsh. If you can schedule your ceremony for late afternoon, the light and the video will both be better for it. Talk to your videographer (us or anyone) before you lock in your timeline.

REAL SUPER 8MM FILM

Somebody probably shot your grandparents' beach trips on this exact format. We bring a vintage Super 8 camera loaded with Kodak film stock to your wedding, and what comes back is warm and textured in a way no digital filter gets close to.

The Director's Cut package includes it.

Kodak stock, developed at a lab

It comes back grainy and warm, and we cut it into your film.

Home base: Wilmington, NC. The Outer Banks sits about four hours up the coast from us. Travel shows up as one line in your quote; nothing hidden.

Tell us about your Outer Banks wedding.

We hold a limited number of weddings each year. Right now 2026 peak dates are filling up and 2027 just opened. If there's a beach house in Duck or a ceremony in the sand at Nags Head somewhere in your plans, we'd love to talk about it.
