About this vendor
Nightjar Pictures, based in Lansdale, PA, is a wedding cinematography and photography studio that strives to create heartfelt films that reflect the unique relationships of their couples. It is owned and operated by Brad, Jenna, and Kylene, three friends who share a passion for capturing life’s most joyous and heartwarming moments.
Brad has been documenting weddings and other special events for over twelve years, and Jenna has been shooting weddings with him for over seven years. They have learned that no two weddings or couples are the same. With this in mind, they have cultivated an approach that takes care to document every detail and to highlight every person who is part of a wedding story. They started Nightjar Pictures with their friend and talented editor Kylene to create the kind of wedding films and photography that inspire them.
Nightjar Pictures produces 12 to 15 minute films that are engaging, watchable and shareable, as well as ceremony and reception formalities included to relive in their entirety. Utilizing multiple camera angles and audio sources throughout your day, they create an immersive and seamless experience, and carefully curate an emotionally impactful story. Their rule is: if it doesn't make them cry happy tears, it's not finished yet.

Jenna, and Kylene, Nightjar is more than a wedding cinematography and photography studio—it’s a celebration of love, artistry, and storytelling.
Nightjar Pictures specializes in creating 12 to 15-minute films that are not only engaging and watchable but also highly shareable. They seamlessly blend multiple camera angles and audio sources to produce an immersive experience, carefully curating an emotionally impactful story. Their golden rule: if it doesn’t bring happy tears, it’s not finished yet.
We had the pleasure of working with Nightjar Pictures for our October wedding at Aldie Mansion in Doylestown, PA. Brad Allen, the lead videographer, and his assistant exceeded our expectations. Brad’s familiarity with the venue allowed him to capture the most breathtaking shots. The final product was nothing short of spectacular—it felt as though we were reliving our wedding day with our family and friends. The sharpness and vibrancy of the video were lifelike, and we received countless compliments from friends who felt they were back at the event, shedding tears of joy once more.
From start to finish, Brad and his team were the epitome of professionalism and ease. They even accommodated our request for drone footage, navigating the requirements for an FAA drone license with diligence.
Nightjar Pictures doesn’t just film weddings—they tell stories, capture emotions, and create memories that will last a lifetime. If you want your wedding day to be remembered in the most beautiful and heartfelt way, look no further than Nightjar Pictures.
A videographer wasn’t always in our plans but when a lot of people were sending in their “regretfully not attending” notices due to Covid, we had some extra room in our budget to b...
ook with Nightjar. Now I cannot imagine not having booked a videographer. I believe we booked with them just 2 weeks shy of our date and they were literally the best, most professional, and kind crew to work with. Despite our short time frame, Brad had zoom calls with us and worked with our wedding planner and photographer to help him get to know us as a couple and understand our vision for our wedding video - a The Office inspired take on our special day with guest vlogs and funny bits. It absolutely poured on our day but brads team was so kind and helping to keep spirits high. He worked with the band to have them remind all the guests to come sit for the camera and leave messages for us. He was sure to get all the “must have” people in shots and edited our videos in a way that was more than we could’ve hoped for. He really is an amazing story teller and captured our wedding day so beautifully and in such a fun quirky way. He gave us an opportunity to request our edits and is shipping us our hard copy video now. We are so happy we chose Nightjar and cannot wait to share the laughs and love this video emulates with our friends and family.
Nightjar Pictures, namely Brad, is absolutely phenomenal. We booked a videographer last minute (after moving our wedding twice due to the pandemic). Brad became quickly integrated ...
in the day and instantly an integral part of our wedding. He and the photographer became quick partners and managed a chaotic day with such ease (and enthusiasm). He quickly became our friend and he was able to capture intimate moments of our special day, seamlessly. His enthusiasm and dedication to his work shines through and I recommend Nightjar Pictures to anyone looking to capture a special event in the most perfect way. He is a pleasure to work with and I look forward to working with him again!
The folks at Nightjar Pictures are truly phenomenal at what they do. They did pregnancy announcement photos that looked so perfect and will be treasured for decades to come. They a...
re fun and easy going and make you feel so comfortable being captured! Don’t hesitate to hire them for your next big (or small) event!
Brad and Jenna are absolutely wonderful! We decided to book them for our wedding photos and video, and now we just had them take our maternity photos! When looking for a photograph...
er, me and my husband wanted someone who would take pictures that are natural and effortless. Brad and Jenna did just that! Sometimes when you are posing for pictures it can be awkward and seem forced. While getting our pictures taken, it felt like our day was being captured like it was in the moment and it felt natural! Like they were just capturing the moments as they came without giving us too many prompts, and instead encouraging us to have conversations and think about scenarios that made us smile and laugh. They have a way of truly capturing emotion as is comes naturally! It also made the moments fun and memorable for us. The actual photos and video themselves were also absolutely beautiful! We especially love how they are able to capture light in photos. We are also so happy that we decided to get video of our wedding taken! Not only are we able to relive the moments of our wedding whenever we’d like and into future as we continue to grow our family, but they are also so beautifully and artistically edited. Our highlights reel plays to the music of our wedding song and it is absolutely perfect! I am guaranteed to shed tears every time I watch. Our maternity photos were just as much of a wonderful experience! Brad was willing to work with us and ensure that we took our pictures on a day that the weather would be in our favor and was excellent with communicating with us. We greatly appreciate his willingness to work with us - especially since he was willing to travel to Cape May for the evening to take our photos! And not to mention, was immediate with his photo editing! We got them THAT NIGHT! We were amazed. Needless to say, we highly recommend Nightjar Productions and would hire them again and again!
Brad and Jenna are an amazing duo! They captured our COVID, backyard wedding beautifully! They made sure to get all the shots we wanted, plus some! They were flexible, as our plans...
kept changing with COVID restrictions. They will be photographing our rescheduled reception in October as well.
