I’m Jacob, the filmmaker behind Jacob Brown Films. My work is rooted in intention — creating films that let you relive the day, not just watch it. I’m drawn to the authentic moments: the tears, the guest interactions, the things you didn’t even realize were happening.
I’m based in Maine, serving all of New England & Southern California. I work closely with each couple from our first conversation to the final delivery, keeping the experience personal, seamless, and grounded.

We are so thrilled that we were able to book Jacob for our wedding! We initially did not plan to book a videographer, but as the day approached we reached out to a few people to s...
ee how much their services would cost so we could capture our day. Jacob had fair pricing and was communicative and professional to work with! One thing that stuck out to us, beyond just his great work, was that he reached out prior to the wedding just to see if he could help us in any way. As a bride, just the offer alone really meant a lot. Jacob is a vendor who knows that he is working with people on the best day of their lives and that’s not lost on him. He got a sneak peek video to us by noon the day after our wedding and it was absolutely stunning! Our full video was back to us within a month of our wedding. The quality of our wedding video is stunning. I am so glad that we have his videos to remember our wedding day by. It’s truly something we will cherish forever. If you are on the fence about a videographer like we were, I highly suggest you go for it and I would absolutely recommend Jacob for the job!

We had an incredible experience working with Jacob Brown Films. Jacob and his wife were the definition of professionalism- organized, kind, and so easy to be around on such an impo...
rtant day. Their calm presence truly helped keep us relaxed and grounded, even during the most emotional moments.
We were blown away by the creativity and innovation of our sneak peek. It was beautifully done, felt so uniquely us, and exceeded our expectations in every way. If the sneak peek is any indication of what’s to come, we truly cannot wait to see the final film.
We are so grateful to have had Jacob capture our wedding and would recommend him without hesitation to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding videography team!

I don’t even know how to begin to explain how incredible Jacob was at not only capturing every single moment that we wanted but also showing us a side of our wedding that in the bu...
syness we didn’t get to notice. Between fun moments with friends and sweet moments with family, he captured all the important moments for us in the most beautiful arrangement to share with friends and family. Him and his wife were an absolute delight to have at our wedding, so polite and courteous while also being able to get us laughing and comfortable behind the camera. If anyone is debating whether they need a video of their wedding or not, please do it!! It’s so worth it and Jacob and his wife will make it magical ❤️

Jacob is an incredible videographer! Booking him last minute was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding. He was professional, punctual, and so easy to work with—even with ...
all the chaos of the day. The footage he captured was absolutely stunning and brought me (and so many of my guests) to tears. Jacob has a true talent for storytelling through video, and I will cherish his work forever. If you're looking for a videographer, don’t hesitate—book Jacob!

We are very satisfied with hiring Jacob Brown for our intimate elopement and would definitely recommend him!! Jacob was very personable, kind and understanding. He seemed very know...
ledgeable in the field of videography and his skills were portrayed in the beautiful highlight video that he created for us. He was very attuned to what our vision was and captured all of the important moments that we want to remember forever.
Jacob was very professional, arrived early to the venue accompanied by his lovely wife, and walked us through the details. It was raining, which I was super stressed about, and he and his wife were very calming and reassuring that everything would work out fine, which it did. The only feedback I have is that it did take a few weeks longer than expected to receive our footage, but overall it was worth the wait and a very positive experience having Jacob capture our beautiful day.

At first, we thought we would add a videographer for our wedding as just a nice added bonus. After seeing the final product that Jacob Brown produced for us, I don't know, however,...
thought that we didn't need this. It is simply one of the most beautiful memories that we will have forever. Our wedding feels like such a blur, I don't even know if I can remember more than a few specific, very special moments. Jacob's film lets us review and rewatch our beautiful ceremony and reception over and over. Family members who couldn't attend get to feel what it was like to be there. Jacob was a consummate professional through the entire process, and worked closely and professionally with our other vendors. We can't thank him enough! If you're on the fence about needing a videographer, take this as your message that it is an absolute necessity, you won't find much better than Jacob Brown films.

while there were many challenges, dealing with Jacob was a breeze. He captured our day beautifully and the footage is something I will cherish forever.

ain “photo ops” on top of getting ready can seem tedious, but Jacob made it all so fun and easy going. The shots he took and compiled into our video are some of our favorites of the day and we still look back at the video frequently and reminisce on our special day. He captured the love between my wife and I perfectly, but also captured all the fun our guests had which was amazing. The professionalism Jacob had with the process leading up to the day and the day of was impressive and so easy to work with. We cannot thank him enough for capturing all the wonderful moments of our special day to have forever. Highly recommend!
