DOCUMENTARY STORYTELLING
YOUR DAY CAPTURED AS IT HAPPENED
My style is documentary so I am very hands off. I capture the moments as they happen naturally with little to no intervention. I want couples day to be about them with all of their closest friends and family, not about making their day into a movie set.
I love to use the speeches, toasts, laughter, and crowd audio from weddings to elevate films and make them feel more alive and not just a slideshow with music. I primarily shoot handheld to have a more organic feel but include tripods for still shots to let a moment tell the story and gimbals for smooth cinematic shots of the venue and high energy moments.
It’s always an honor to capture one of the biggest days of couples lives. I will retell your wedding day in a modern and cinematic way that will last for generations.
WHAT I’M ABOUT…
To start off: I’m Jake, and I’m based out of Upstate New York.
I bought my first camera in 2024 to create a visual side of my music. I shot an engagement video for fun and immediately fell in love with videography. My first full wedding was in Cancun, Mexico and that’s where Jake Provo Films became official.
Since then, I’ve been shooting weddings all over Western New York and a few out of state. I quickly realized I wanted the films I create to emphasize the celebration of love, and for couples and future generations to look back on the best day of their lives.

“Jake filmed our June 2025 wedding, and we had the BEST experience working with him & his second shooter, Hannah. They worked SO hard throughout the day, were a joy to be around, and delivered better footage than we could have dreamed! They captured the essence of our day and brought it back to life. The video feels like us as a couple and represented our day exactly as we remembered it - so much fun, lighthearted, and full of love between us & all of our favorite people.
