About 87 & Smith

87 and Smith was established with the intention to provide high quality films for the sophisticated couple in search of a wedding video and to the commercial client looking to have a film made for their business. Their approach is low key, professional and unobtrusive. 87 and Smith finds the authentic moments and unique perspectives utilizing natural light and composition. They can be described as fine art films creating energetic, authentic and emotional videos that are as unique as the couples we work with. Kyle Smith, owner of 87 and Smith has been filming weddings since 2014 and has filmed and edited over 100 weddings. Many of the weddings filmed have been situated in Washington D.C. with a few sprinkled around the country (Michigan, Texas, Georgia, Kentucky, Philadelphia) Kyle's easy personality makes working with 87 and Smith a delight. He is always using his creative eye to look for opportunity that would otherwise be missed which sets 87 and Smith apart from others in the space. It really is his eyes that are the tools, not the camera. Seeking unique perspectives. Creating depth. Using the natural light given. Recording the authentic moments that are happening through the perspective of a guest rather than as an outsider looking in. The approach that 87 and Smith has is simple and refined. In an industry that obsesses over the latest gear, the latest technology and fancy tools, Kyle relies on what he knows best. Capturing the natural moments as they are happening, nothing in the slightest scripted, posed, or false. 87 does little to no directing or asking the couple to act out, it's 100% documentary and 100% real. The wedding is about the couple, not the photographer and not the filmmaker. It's unnatural to ask the couple to perform for the camera, there is enough real action going on that 87 doesn't need to fake anything, it's a wedding after all and not a movie. The final films that are made and carefully crafted by 87 and Smith are designed to stand the test of time, to be timeless and classic while being artistic and bold. Forget the cheesy transitions and trendy looks that are here today but gone tomorrow, 87 and Smith will create a film worth keeping around for generations to continue to appreciate time and time again.

What is your pricing?
Our pricing starts with a foundation which includes a highlight film and number of hours, from there each package is custom built specifically for you. We discover what's best for you based on an early discovery call that we have together! Pricing will vary based on your individual priorities.
What makes your services unique?
I focus on telling authentic stories paired with highly creative and cinematic imagery. I want this to feel like a movie and less like a traditional "wedding video". I achieve this by shooting intentionally and editing at a high level.
How far in advance should I book your services?
Most couples are booking me about 10 months to a year in advance.
