What Makes It A Dadcam

Moments not Megapixels. The home video your dad would have shot if your dad was really, really good at it.

How It Works

How Dadcam comes to life

  1. Vintage Camcorders

    From the full sized VHS camera Bryant's grandma literally used to the little handhelds of the early 2000s, every camera is tested, reliable, and ready to tape.

  2. Sound That Fits the Finish

    Natural camera sound keeps the home video feeling. The Full Picture adds professionally recorded vows, speeches, and the sound of the room.

  3. A Dadcam in Your Hands

    We can mail you a camera the week before, bring one on date night, or hand one to your wedding party on the big day.

  4. Choose the Finish

    Keep the clips as they happened, line everything up into a chronological VHS Edit, or add an Anniversary Film with professional sound.

Testimonials

Don't take our word for it. Our couples say it better than we ever could.

Taylor and Evan Dadcam wedding video upstate New York
"We found Jess and Bryant and they had a "Dadcam", which was exactly what we wanted where it would feel so authentic and beautiful at the same time. Jess was so attentive throughout the entire day and she really just let us do our own thing so she could capture us authentically to create a wedding video that truly told our story."

Lindsay and Lee vintage camcorder wedding video Western New York
"We just finished watching our full wedding video and we had soooo much fun watching. It is going to be incredibly special to have this video for years to come. We're very grateful that we got to have you do our wedding video!! Thank you for everything Jess!!"
Lindsay & Lee
Kristin and Brent VHS style wedding video Jamestown NY
"We really wanted a full wedding video, like an old-school 90's wedding video, rather than a 2-4 minute recap of the day. Jess captured our vision perfectly! She was also fantastic to work with. She is such a nice person! She did a wonderful job of capturing both the big moments and the small ones."

The Other Mediums

Before You Ask

Is DadCam a filter or a real vintage camcorder?
It is real. Our collection starts with the full sized VHS camera Bryant's grandma used and runs through the handheld camcorders of the early 2000s. We test and maintain every camera, then film your wedding professionally. The home video warmth comes from the equipment, not an effect.
What do we receive with each DadCam collection?
Nostalgically Correct gives you every prepared clip. The Classics adds a one to two hour VHS Edit with the day lined up in order, plus a handcrafted 15 to 20 minute Anniversary Film built around the moments and voices you will want to revisit most. The Full Picture includes all of that with both of us filming, plus a short highlight film set to a song you choose.
What about sound?
Nostalgically Correct and The Classics keep the natural sound recorded by the camcorders. The Full Picture also records vows, speeches, and natural sound professionally. Complete ceremony and toast films can be added to Nostalgically Correct or The Classics.
Can our friends use a DadCam too?
Yes. The Full Picture comes with one Wedding Week DadCam, and any collection can add more when you build your package, so your people can tape the whole week. We also run DadCam Rentals for couples who want the camera without professional coverage.
