Ali & Sam

Ali and Sam’s love story began during Covid, with a first date spent outside in the freezing cold, talking for hours despite the weather. Sam was immediately smitten and determined to make an impression. For their second date, he transformed his apartment into a personal concert hall, complete with a handmade wristband waiting for Ali at the door—a fitting preview of the creativity and personality that would define their wedding day.

The couple later celebrated their wedding at Griffin House, a stunning wedding venue overlooking the Columbia River Gorge in Oregon. Surrounded by the dramatic landscapes of the Pacific Northwest, their Columbia River Gorge wedding brought together an intimate, artful atmosphere with the natural beauty of Oregon.

Ali wore a custom-designed gown by Kobi Halperin, who not only created her wedding dress but also attended the celebration as a guest and stylist. The result was a fashion-forward bridal look that felt completely personal to Ali and perfectly suited to the couple’s creative Oregon wedding.

Their Griffin House wedding film captures the atmosphere of the Columbia River Gorge through a blend of intimate storytelling, natural landscapes, fashion-forward details, and candid moments. Ali and Sam’s celebration is a beautiful example of documentary-driven wedding videography with an editorial eye.
