Cinematographer, editor and filmmaker.
Ethan filmed his first wedding all the way back in 2014. Since then, he's developed a passion for telling genuine and authentic love stories that are cinematic, poetic, and timeless. Focusing on honest connection, moody & elegant storytelling, and a style that feels deeply personal.
His approach is to put your love story front and centre and move any distractions to the wayside. His goal is to make a film that feels like a dream, that couples can revisit any time. With a combination of Ethans signature cinematography and audio from the day, he crafts your one-of-a-kind family heirloom into something that never loses value. All while being extremely unobtrusive and a fly on the wall.
Hello! I'm Ethan
weddings featured in:
My life journey has taken me to many places throughout Canada and the US. I was born in Calgary, Alberta in the wee hours of the morning. My family lived in small rural Alberta towns until we moved near Kelowna, BC, then back to Alberta. My love for cinema started with watching Mary Poppins as a kid. As an adult Interstellar is the film that still inspires me and still influences my cinematography.
My likes:
- Bearface Whiskey
- Early morning gym sessions
- Date nights at the movies
- Coffee coffee coffee
- Cooking Filipino food with Von
- Expensive gourmet French fries
- Ghost energy drinks
- Christopher Nolan films (I bawl every time I watch that one scene in Interstellar, iykyk)
- Fall Out Boy, Vampire Weekend, and Metric
Ethan's Story
I’ve been with Von, the love of my life, since 2016 and it’s been the adventure of a lifetime! We’re both introverts, love the mountains, and love going to the cinema, even though our taste in movies can be total opposites. Raman is our go-to food when out on the town, and we will totally steal a bit of each others food when the other isn't looking.
He tries his best to teach me Tagalog, but I can’t roll my R’s so it’s slightly challenging. But I’ve managed to memorize my first phrase: gusto ko ng mata at ngiti niya!
