The Team, The Philosophy, The Commitment
Where Story
Meets Craft
meet your videographers
who you'll work with from inquiry to delivery
Based in Jacksonville, Florida. Filming weddings since 2019. Corey's approach is documentary in nature, capturing moments as they unfold rather than staging them. The work prioritizes authenticity over performance. Couples who feel comfortable enough to be themselves produce the most honest films.
Every wedding is documented using a combination of tools selected for specific purposes: cinema-grade digital for clarity and detail, Super 8 film and camcorder footage for warmth and texture, drone coverage for perspective (when conditions allow). The aesthetic remains consistent across all formats. Timeless. Cinematic. Built to hold up decades from now. The goal is simple: create something you'll want to return to, not just once, but for the rest of your life.
Corey, Founder & Lead Filmmaker
Suzy became the first official team member in September 2025. For her, weddings represent something worth protecting: the moment when the people you care about gather to witness your commitment. That perspective shapes how she works.
Her focus on wedding day extends beyond operating a camera. She's there to help the experience run smoothly, removing obstacles before they become stress points. Couples should feel confident that while she's documenting, she's also ensuring the day itself unfolds as planned. The films she helps create are designed to bring back the feeling, not just the images. Warmth. Nostalgia. The emotions worth preserving.
Suzy, Videographer
the philosophy
where craft meets calling
Filmmaking found Corey long before he made it a career. What started as a passion project, something he pursued outside of his professional life, revealed itself to be far more than a creative outlet. It was a way to build something that would last. To create work that mattered. To preserve moments that would one day be passed down.
Today, Corey and his team approach every wedding with the same intentionality that led him to leave everything behind and pursue this full time. The Corey Thomas Films team doesn't take it for granted that couples trust them with one of the most important events of their lives. That gratitude shows up in the work, in the service, and in the relentless pursuit of making each film better than the last.
From intimate weekends in Napa to grand celebrations across Charleston, no two films are alike. Each one reflects the personality and love story of the couple at its center. Browse recent weddings and see how Corey transforms candlelight and conversation, laughter and legacy, into something worth revisiting.

What Sets us Apart
The Commitment
Most videographers arrive with a formula. They know the shots they need, the moments they'll capture, the timeline they'll follow. Corey has never worked that way. Every couple is different. Every wedding tells a different story. The only way to honor that is to listen first. That's why discovery calls aren't sales pitches. They're conversations. What matters most to you? What do you want to feel when you watch this film in twenty years? Are there moments that absolutely must be captured? Any that shouldn't be? These aren't rhetorical questions.
They shape every decision on your wedding day. And just as important as what gets captured is how it happens. You won't find large production setups. No intrusive lights. No bulky equipment demanding attention. Corey believes your wedding isn't content to be manufactured. It's a commitment that deserves to unfold without interference. The team integrates seamlessly, never pulling focus from what matters. The result is a commitment to creating films that feel authentic because nothing about the process ever disrupts the moment itself.
"Working with Corey was one of the best decisions we made throughout the wedding planning process."
" His professionalism was above and beyond, his attention to detail to capture the essence of my husband and I was always present at every interaction, and his sincerity and passion for his work was unmatched. We could not more happy with the our wedding video and can't thank Corey enough for the love he put into it. Highly recommend working with him and hope we get the chance to again in the future!"

“It's hard to find the words to portray how amazing working with Corey was. From the moment we met him, I knew he was going to be the perfect wedding videographer for me and my husband"
"He was professional, calm, kind and asked all the right questions to make sure he captured the weekend exactly how we wanted. I was very particular about the vendors I hired and who I wanted to have around me on my wedding day and Corey was exactly what Jeff and I needed (and my bridesmaids loved him too). His caring energy day of (rushing to get me fries when I felt light headed) was unmatched."
Danielle Mackson
"Working with Corey as our wedding videographer was one of the best decisions we made for our big day."
"From the very beginning, Corey was the most thoughtful and kind person I’ve had the pleasure of working with. He brought such a calming and positive energy to the entire process, making us feel completely comfortable and truly cared for. His talent for filmmaking is above and beyond anything we could have hoped for. He captured every special moment with such artistry and attention to detail, creating a film that not only tells the story of our day but brings all the emotion and joy rushing back each time we watch it. Corey has an incredible eye and a gift for turning moments into memories that we’ll cherish forever."
Ellie Johnson
"From the moment I met him, it felt like finding a needle in a haystack. When I first met Corey, I told him I was on the fence about hiring a videographer at all."
"Despite that, he still took the time to truly listen, understand my vision, and offer thoughtful insight—not as a salesperson, but as an artist who genuinely cared. Every question he asked was intentional: What’s most important to you? What do you want to highlight? Are there any moments that absolutely must be captured? Any that shouldn’t be? What’s the vibe? His focus wasn’t just on filming a wedding—it was on creating a timeless keepsake that would capture the essence of the day in a way that felt personal and real."
Julianne Burch
"If you're thinking about hiring Corey for your wedding/event, two words: Do it."
"Frankly, we were unsure if we wanted to hire a videographer for our wedding due to budgets, and frankly, most of the videos we've seen seem very "cookie cutter" and the same format copy and pasted. I was drawn to Corey given how he takes a unique approach to each couple - their wedding video really seems to be their own and reflect their personalities. We can say, without question, we could not be happier with choosing Corey to capture our wedding day. Working with Corey was not only easy, he also made it fun and enjoyable (which is not always the case when planning a wedding). In prep for the day, he met with us for several hours to ask questions and to get to know us more - all so that he could ensure he captured us, as a couple, and the moments/things that meant the most to us."
Andrew Touhy
"I just got married in December and that becomes the third wedding Corey has done in my family!"
"He truly never disappoints & is as good as they come! Corey brought our dreams to life with our videos, was so kind and easy to work with, made us feel so comfortable & allowed for us to be as involved as we wanted! Corey always kept us in the loop and gave us updates, asked for our input & went above and beyond to make sure that it was perfect. Could not recommend him enough. Such a solid, genuine guy who feels more like a friend and made our special day even more perfect & seamless. If you need a videographer- look no further, he is your guy!!"
