About this vendor
The first thing I want you to know about me is that I believe in marriage and I want my film to be an investment in your marriage. That's why all of my films focus in on people before props. Though you'll have beautiful decorations, the truth is that there is much more power and emotion behind you and your loved ones than a flower arrangement.
So I focus on you and your spouse, your personalities, and the subtle nuances in your relationship that make you smile just thinking about them. I think this is why every single one of my clients loves their films.

Wow! 10/10 for Luke!!! From our first consultation to the wedding day, Luke was just wonderful! I knew right away he was the videographer my husband and I wanted to work with. Luke is incredibly genuine and kind, energetic, professional, and detail-oriented. His style is real and beautiful. He truly captures the best moments and brings your entire wedding day together in the most mesmerizing way! What’s more, Luke made my husband and I feel at-ease in front of the camera. He had a rare talent for connecting with people and helping bring out the very best in us— you could see it in the gorgeous photos! We looked natural and so happy.
I already had high expectations after seeing many of his videos online, but he went above and beyond on ours! It’s perfect!!!! Every detail we had discussed (and more!!) was covered in the wedding video. It’s something we will truly cherish forever. Thank you Luke! We would 10/10 times choose you to be our videographer!!!! :)
Luke was super professional and a ton of fun to have with us on the wedding day. My wife and I absolutely love the videos and couldn’t be happier with his work.
Wow! Where do I start? Ok, so all the videos are amazing! That’s right! All of them. Luke and his team produced a whole suite of videos for us. The highlight film is perfect. The special feature videos of all our special moments are captured so well, and it feels like I’m actually there again. All of your friends will be taking pics and videos with their phones but having Luke’s professional videos is a night and day difference. I guess the last thing I’ll say, and maybe most importantly, Luke is one of the most genuine and kind people I worked with throughout wedding planning and the wedding day. He was so positive and always helped keep the energy up. I don’t want to think about what my wedding would have been like without his presence. Thank you Luke!
Luke at LWfilms is a true mastermind. After meeting him during our consultation, I knew I wanted him on our team. He was so kind, energetic, professional, and detail-oriented. We just clicked. After seeing some of his work online, I had high expectations, and he absolutely went above and beyond my wildest dreams for our wedding video!! He listened to everything I asked for, and knocked it out of the park. Even tiny details I had mentioned in passing (that even I had forgotten about!) he remembered to capture. His team was on time (I actually think they arrived 40mins early), professional, and deliberate with their shots. They made us feel at-ease in front of the camera, which is hard to do for two people who aren't used to having cameras follow us around, and pumped up the energy for the bridal party, making us all laugh and have a good time to get those natural shots. He knew exactly how to capture our day in an effortless and seamless process. It happened to rain on our day, and he quickly pivoted and was able to capture our favorite aerial shots quickly and find new and beautiful locations for the rest. I am truly so thankful to have met Luke, and I look back fondly on the "ins-and-outs" of our wedding day because of how great he and his team were. I truly could not recommend him more, YOU NEED HIM!!
Luke was so great to work with. In every interaction he was personable and professional. He took the time to ask questions about my fiancé and I as individuals and as a couple before the wedding to best capture our day. I would not say we were “camera naturals”, but Luke captured so much great footage and helped us be as comfortable as possible when filming. On your big day, being surrounded by kind and talented vendors helps you focus on what’s most important, and allows you to trust they have the rest covered. So thankful Luke was part of our wedding vendor team and absolutely recommend him for beautiful wedding video coverage.
Luke was incredible. He was so intentional with creating the perfect video for us. Something we will cherish forever!
Luke took the time to ask details about me, my husband and our relationship. He captured the most special moments for our wedding day, including our first reveal to our loved ones that we were expecting. Luke was extremely down to earth and easy going, yet organized and professional. This made the event so much less stressful for me, which I appreciated immensely. He knew our wedding party by name.
Highly recommend!
Amazing communication! Worked with our budget as well. Their team did such an amazing job and so thankful to have worked with them.
Would do 10 stars for Luke if I could. This was my second time working with Luke and both were amazing experiences. I had met Luke when shooting a friend’s wedding and as a bridesmaid, admired how he worked with my friend making her so comfortable and bringing out such a beautiful side to her on her special day. My husband and I later hired Luke to shoot our own destination wedding. Luke is truly one of the best in the business. He is incredibly easy to work with and finds a way to capture the most beautiful moments without you even realizing. He not only captured the moments between my husband and I, but made it a point to film those loving scenes of our guests. We often look back on our video and take any opportunity (like the holidays) to rewatch it with our family. Luke, thank you for allowing us to look back on these timeless memories!
If you are considering working with Luke… I highly recommend you choose to!! Working with Luke was such a positive experience. The planning process was thoughtful and he really tried to get to know us so that what was important to us would be including in the final product. He went above and beyond to make all of our ideas a reality and the result was a not just a wedding film but visually captured memories for us to continue to cherish and share. I admittedly wasn’t sure how much we would watch it however we love it so much we have watched it countless times to relive our happy day. Cannot recommend them enough!!
The best wedding videographer in the USA!!! We were so excited when we first spoke with Luke about capturing our wedding day. I knew I wanted a videographer in addition to our photographer so that we could truly remember every part of our day in the years to come -- and WOW, did Luke deliver on all that and more!! The final video we received from Luke was incredible and makes me cry every time I watch it, but the special features and ceremony footage were so priceless to us as well! I am so overjoyed that I have footage of our special dances, first looks, and precious moments with family.
In addition to the amazing quality of video, Luke's presence on our day was so amazing! Everyone in our wedding party was raving about how kind he was and he really was like a fly on the wall when it came to capturing the day. He made every moment all about us and was super quick and efficient in getting shots so that we could spend our time with friends and family instead of taking photos + video.
I recommend Luke and the LWFilms team 1000%! Their quality of work is excellent and their presence is exactly what you need to bring calm into the chaos of the wedding day! Thank you, Luke, for precious memories we can look back on forever!
LWFilms was professional and helpful with all the questions we had leading up to the big day. We couldn’t ask for a better videographer to capture our special, once in a lifetime day! Once the video was created and we received it, we were more impressed than everything leading up to it. Additionally, we like most couples wanted our video back as soon as possible, compared to market times we thought the service was extremely fast. Luke is a hard working individual and it shows in his company and products. Thank you to Luke and his crew! We were beyond blessed.
I cannot begin to tell you how wonderful Luke and the team from LWfilms are. Kind, thorough, completely professional and with a keen eye for detail. Their video work is the best I have seen and I have seen a lot of videos. I would give 100 stars if I could
Luke is incredibly talented and professional. He was so polite, and we had so much fun working with him on our wedding day. Leading up to the wedding, he was always very responsive and organized.
I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome of our wedding video. He really went the extra mile and took into account our personalities and the whole aesthetic of the wedding when putting together this film.
Luke was AMAZING! Professional, friendly and just overall awesome to work with for our daughter’s wedding. We only have the teaser video so far that was sent the day after the wedding and we’ve probably watched it 100 times or more. The style and quality of his videos drew me to him when browsing the options on The Knot. The brief sample we have in the next-day teaser video just high-lighted how great of a decision we made booking Luke and we are so excited to see the full final product.
Not only did Luke produce an exceptional video for us, but his fun and laid back personality helped keep us at ease throughout the whole event. My friends and family used LWfilms in the past with amazing results, but my husband and I were not very keen on having cameras on us. Luke set up some special moments for my husband and me (some of my favorite memories of that day) so that we barely even noticed the cameras. It's also worth mentioning that he was in an unfamiliar location, and was willing to brave the winter weather in the Colorado Rockies with us. Lastly, the video turned out PERFECT! I would recommend his services to anyone, anywhere!
Luke was by far the best vendor we hired for our wedding. We searched for a while to find a videographer, as it was something very important to my husband and I. Luke was the most professional and courteous vendor and took the time to really speak with us regarding what we wanted for our video, and made edits as we requested. It is a great treasure to have a wedding video we will cherish. And not only that, but he was great to work with throughout the wedding day - our family and friends commented on how much they liked our wedding videographer and how personable he was. Thank you Luke!
Luke and his team were absolutely incredible on our wedding day, and during all of the planning leading up to our big day. Luke carries himself with a high level of professionalism, warmth, and genuine kindness and took the time to really get to know us as a couple to make sure his work clearly reflected who we are. He was absolutely one of the best vendors we hired for the event, and I can't recommend working with him enough!
Luke was so easy to work and communicate with. He took extra time to get to know us and make our video everything we wanted it to be. Our videos could not have turned out better and we were so thankful to be able to have him livestream the ceremony for family and friends unable to travel during the pandemic. His attention to detail and wonderful work were so appreciated!
Luke and his team are incredibly gifted. Most importantly, Luke is so kindhearted and truly invested in capturing all the special moments of your wedding weekend. He set up multiple meetings with us and conferred with us throughout the weekend to make sure he was capturing everything we wanted. And the turnaround time on the final product was quick but also very professionally done!
Additionally, he was so flexible when it came to having to reschedule our wedding dates due to COVID and reassured us that he would be able to accommodate any changes, which was a big sense of relief in a very difficult time.
We cannot imagine our wedding weekend without Luke and his team. We and our guests truly enjoyed celebrating along with them! If you are looking for a videographer for your wedding, you should absolutely use LWfilms.
Working with Luke was a dream. He is extremely talented and professional. He listened to our wants and needs and he went above and beyond to make our vision come to life. We couldn’t be happier with his work.
I will cherish this video forever. The LWFilms team captured an immaculate collection of footage on my wedding day and created the most perfect video. Luke and I communicated over the phone during the pandemic to talk about everything I was looking for in a wedding video and it was very much delivered. Talking to Luke is like talking to a friend. Everything was so easy. Josh was our videographer on the day of our wedding. He was so sweet and easy to work with. Everything in the video was magical- from the smiles and dancing, to the tiny details, to the drone work. This video truly brought back all the wedding memories and has all of my friends and family saying WOW. You will not be disappointed with LW Films and I more than highly recommend! Also if you’re the bride who thinks a video might not be an important keepsake, think again! I was that way at first and I was so wrong. Thank you so much Luke and Josh, for everything.
Luke and his team are incredible! He went above and beyond to get to know us as a couple, and be able to portray our essence in the films he's made for us. We were a COVID wedding, so he was more than accommodating in moving our wedding date, and even made it work where he was able to film our intimate wedding in 2020 and large reception in 2021. His work speaks for itself (everything is stunning). He is amazing, and you will absolutely not regret booking him for your big day.
We thoroughly enjoyed working with Luke before, on, and after our wedding day. Luke and his team were extremely kind, organized, professional and they genuinely cared about us enjoying our big day.
Luke and his team not only worked wonderfully with my husband and I, they were also fantastic with the bridal party and all of the other vendors that we had as well. The were able to work extremely well with our photographer and kept it a stress free and enjoyable process for us all. They communicated extremely well with everyone involved in our big day.
The footage and work that they put together is amazing. We regularly watch our wedding video and all of the other videos that they put together with happy hearts. We are so happy to have worked with them and highly recommend Luke and his team to anyone.
They truly made it an unforgettable experience.
Luke was great to work with! We were blown away by our wedding film and are grateful to revisit our perfect day anytime we want to. We could not have had a better experience with Luke!
I am so glad that we found Luke when we did! We knew from past work that he has done that we would get a great outcome, but seeing our wedding come to life to showcase our day was AMAZING! It was better than we could have ever dreamed of. He created such a happy addition to our day and caught all of the best moments. 12/10 recommend! Everyone we have shown our video to was blown away. Our video is something we will treasure forever. Thank you so much Luke!
Luke is the real deal! We Could not have asked for a better partner to see this very important element of our wedding through. His planning and preparation were meticulous and his execution during wedding day was Flawless! We could not be happier with our videos (that were delivered pretty quickly) and highly recommend Luke and his team!
Luke was such a pleasure to work with on the event .we had so much fun making the event memorable during all the covid restrictions. The video was was everything and more than we expected and allowed all the guest cut from covid to experience the day. Happy beyond measure!
Luke was the absolute best! I seriously can’t say enough great things about him. He was very organized and great to work with. The best thing about Luke Is that he is willing to work around all the craziness and get the most special shots! He was so much fun to work with and I would highly recommend him to anyone that is looking for the best. My husband and I couldn’t have been happier with Luke and our amazing wedding video that I have already watched a million times over!
Luke was great. He was professional, caring, punctual, and produced an amazing memory for us.
Luke was amazing! We got married during COVID so meeting and getting to know vendors was difficult. Luke was polite and personable from the first phone call. We knew immediately he was our guy. We were impressed with the style and quality of his video that we felt it was well worth the investment. He was punctual in getting our video footage together with a beautifully done teaser video. We had family and friends non-stop telling us how impressed they were with his work. And day of, he collaborated with our other vendors like DJ and photographer so well. Could not be happier and now we have amazing video to look back on of our special day!
LW Films was amazing and so easy to work with! Luke and Wade filmed the wedding, and they were such a joy to have around on our big day. Our wedding video was everything that I had hoped for, such a great investment! Not only do people talk about how wonderful the video was, they talk about how pleasant Luke and Wade were - highly recommend!
Luke and Josh were amazing to work with on our big day! They made everything easy and stress-free and even catered to our last-minute requests. The cameras and equipment were very discreet and our entire experience was great. Our final video is so perfect and special to us! The artistic style of LWfilms is so beautiful. We highly recommend!
LUKE IS AWESOME!!!! Our wedding film was more than I could have ever imagined, plus he was such a pleasure to work with. If you do not hire LWFilms, you are seriously missing out. We can’t thank him enough!
Luke was awesome to work with! We had to postpone our wedding because of Covid-19, and Luke was super flexible working with us as we changed dates and eventually ended up changing venues to my parents backyard. Luke captured the day perfectly from the our intimate backyard ceremony to our wedding party and reception. He even used drone footage to get views of each of our parents houses where we each got ready. Aside from the incredible videos he created for us, Luke was friendly, kind and professional. We would highly recommend him for any couple looking for a videographer to capture their wedding day.
Luke was fantastic! I cannot recommend him enough! When I saw his work, I knew immediately this was what I wanted. What I received was even more than what I was expecting! Very easy to work with and very personable. If you are hesitant on spending the extra money, DO IT! Definitely worth every penny.
LWFilms was such an amazing addition to our wedding day. Luke spent his time getting every amazing shot he could think of while capturing the emotion of every moment. Our video is our favorite thing we walked away from our wedding with besides each other. If you're on the fence about getting a wedding video I say it is more than worth it.
Luke took the time to call both my husband and I before our wedding to get to know us. He asked for things we wanted and was fun to work with!
I cannot say enough about Luke and his amazing work. I met Luke and his wife at the Bliss Bridal expo in Lexington, and we instantly connected. After a glimpse at some of his work, I knew immediately I wanted him to film our wedding. Luke went out of his way to stay in touch with my husband and I to make sure we stayed on the same page with our view for the wedding, and he really took the extra time that was necessary to get to know us and how wanted our day to be captured. The day of the wedding he arrived early and his wonderful personality brought magic to the room! He was a hit with our friends and family and he captured everyone in their authentic form! Simply put, the wedding video was magical and truly captured every detail and emotion throughout our day. We can't stop watching our wedding film because it was THAT good; thank you so much, Luke! If you're deciding between selecting Luke and someone else, take our word for it!
I cannot say enough good things about Luke and this review that I’m writing up, along with the 5 stars that he’s easily earned, just simply does not do him nor his company justice. Luke and I clicked from the very beginning during our initial introductory phone call. He was very professional throughout while still talking to me as though I were a close friend or relative, instead of talking to me as though I were another client or another source of income. He made sure to follow up with us a couple more times before the wedding to make sure that our wedding film will be personalized according to what we want captured and what we feel the tone of the film should be. His charisma and wonderfully bubbly personality shone through the day of the wedding as he worked his magic with my friends and family, all the while trying to immortalize my day in film. Although he’s never worked with them before, Luke drove all the way to St. Louis and instantly connected with my photographers and worked so well with them that they appeared as if they were from the same studio. I can’t even count how many times I’ve had guests come up to ask me if I had known Luke previously or if he was a close friend, he’s that personable.
Enough about Luke though and let’s move onto what he produced. In setting the tone for the film, he reached out to us with the two songs he thought would fit best for what we’re looking for and the first song was slower and more romantic, perfectly capturing the tone of us getting ready, the first look, and the wedding ceremony, while the second tone was more upbeat and perfectly reflected the spirit of our reception. The wedding video was masterfully crafted, with him fully utilizing natural and indoor lighting as he filmed our outdoor photo shoot and our indoor ceremony and reception. There’s not a single moment that we thought was left out and there wasn’t a single second that we thought was out of place. We’ve shown the film multiple times to each member of our friends and family and we’ve yet to grow tired of watching it. Perhaps the only thing we don’t enjoy watching is our first dance, which includes our awkward swaying to the sounds of our close friend singing, which Luke used a mic to record to ensure that our friend’s singing is recorded with studio quality for posterity.
Can’t thank LWfilms enough for giving us such a treasure to remember the most perfect day! Literally captured the most important parts of the day in around 6 minutes! How is that even possible? I never get tired of watching this beautiful film and I know it will be shared for many years to come! Don’t hesitate to hire them! It is money well spent!
I contacted LW films for my Indian Wedding last year. They had never done an Indian wedding before but were up for the challenge! Luke was amazing, he learned about the different cultural things that would happen throughout the night and he was there for it all! All of the dances looked like a music video the way he filmed it and everyone looked like a professional dancer! My highlight video was my absolute favorite, he identified all the best parts of my weekend and made it flow seamlessly. He even made DVDs for my family abroad who wouldn’t be able to easily access the online platform. Choosing LW Films was the best decision I made for my wedding! Luke is so genuine and truly wants to be there for you and when everything is so crazy that day already - he is calm and collected. Highly recommend LW Films!
If you are in need of a wedding videographer - please please look no further. LWfilms made all of my wedding dreams come true. We went with Luke’s associate photographer, Wade. This was slightly less expensive and Wade was just wonderful. Luke said if it weren’t for his kiddos being sick, he would have joined Wade at the wedding simply because he wanted to be there for us. The sweetest!
They deliver the wedding video on a website and include the full ceremony recording as well as specific links to click on for the first look, first dance, father/daughter dance, mother/son dance, and cake cutting. I really liked that aspect.
I did a next-day picture session, where Wade volunteered to join in on for some videos. This really stood out to me because he didn’t have to be there but wanted to capture as much as possible to make our video outstanding.
They both kept in touch before and after the wedding (even after they gave us our film). Wade was great about asking what I specifically wanted in the video. It’s such a pleasure to know and trust who you are working with. Luke and Wade got to know my story and I knew they wouldn’t let me down.
Everyone went crazy about our video and that’s something, like pictures, that you will treasure forever. Looking back, there’s a few changes I would’ve made to my special day, but LWfilms was absolutely perfect. I’d book them again in a heartbeat!
I thought I didn’t want a wedding video. I was so so so wrong.
My husband, being from Portugal where weddings are a bit different from the way they’re done here, had zero opinion in the matter. I thought, it’s 2018, who does videos?! So we opted for no wedding video.
Two weeks before the wedding I changed my mind and I couldn’t be more thrilled that I did. There were two cinematographers that were available: one was not our style at all and the other was Luke (LWfilms). LWfilms was a perfect fit for us. His style and mood of films was exactly what we were looking for. Luke and I hopped on a quick call and it was like we had been friends for a long time and as if he’d helped us plan the entire wedding weekend.
The day of the wedding, Luke showed up and made himself right at home with my family, bridesmaids, photographer and beauty team. It was like he just floated around the home, not trying to intrude with the camera, but just trying to be apart of everything.
The video he created for my husband and I is an absolute dream. I honestly couldn’t have imagined anything better. He captured everything. Every mood, vibe, smile, tear, flower, etc.
I love the way Luke captured every detail of our wedding day. Whenever I want to relive our special day, I watch the film and am immediately brought back to the best day of my life.
If I had to plan the wedding again, I would absolutely use LWfilms from day one, no questions asked.
My husband and I worked with Luke and his team for our wedding and they were AMAZING!! My husband was completely against having a videographer & after he saw the finished product he cried.. in fact he cries every time we watch or show it to someone. He now recommends LW films to everyone we know getting married. Plus tells people the one thing to splurge on is a videographer!! Luke is wonderful to work with and the quality of his work is unbeatable!!
Like was very curtious and thorough with explaining what he would be doing. He’s a friendly guy and really good at what he does.
I would recommend LWfilms to all brides!!The whole team is easy to work with and really care about your day and making sure you have all the memories you need. They filmed my wedding and two other friends and each is so unique and really captures that couple. I can’t thank them enough for their wonderful work!
Luke was ABSOLUTELY fabulous!!! I am so glad I discovered him after he did an amazing job on my cousins wedding film.
Luke was professional, organized, compassionate, plus more. Just all the things you want to have in your corner on the day of your wedding. Our day was made easier knowing that the little things we may have missed were caught on film.
Thanks to Luke for making our special day even more so with the beautifully crafted video that captured so well the energy and soul of our love and our big day. We will cherish our video for the rest of our days. It was PERFECT!
We had the greatest time using LW Films as our videogrpaher. From the beginning of our wedding day to the end, Luke was professional and did an outstanding job filming our wedding. Not only did he blow our expectations out of the water, he exceeded them. He caught everything from the whole day on film which I was not expecting. LW Films services are invaluable and priceless. I can't wait to watch and share my wedding video for years to come. I can't recommend a business enough. If you are questioning rather or not to hire a videographer, Luke Woodward from LW Films is your guy and will do a phenomenal job recording your special day!
I honestly believe that there is no one better in the world of videography than LW Films. Luke is the kindest, most supportive person to work with, and his talent has taken my breath away. Our wedding film captured the essence of the day so impeccably, and we have received several comments from friends and family that it is the best wedding film they have ever seen. Luke is truly one of a kind, and I would love for as many people as possible to have the same incredible experience that we had with LW Films.
