What makes cinematic wedding videography different from traditional wedding video?

Cinematic wedding videography, as practiced by Jaymes Media, uses professional cinema techniques including color grading, sound design, multiple camera angles, drone footage, and narrative editing to create a film that feels like a short movie rather than a simple recording. Traditional wedding video typically captures events in real-time with minimal editing. Jaymes Media's documentary-style approach means we never pose or direct couples — we observe and capture authentic moments, then craft them into an emotionally compelling film with professional post-production.

Myron Hill — Ann Arbor Wedding Videographer and Filmmaker at Jaymes Media

The Founder

Hi, I'm Myron.
I tell love stories.

I started Jaymes Media in 2021 with a simple conviction: your wedding film should make you feel something profound every single time you press play. Based in Metro Detroit, I serve couples across Ann Arbor, Detroit, Grand Rapids, Traverse City, and beyond — bringing cinematic storytelling to every celebration.

With over 77 weddings filmed across Michigan — from the Matthaei Botanical Gardens in Ann Arbor to lakeside venues in Traverse City and historic estates in Grand Rapids — I've learned that the most powerful moments are often the quietest ones. A father's trembling hands, a best friend's knowing glance, the way light catches a tear at just the right moment.

When I'm not behind the camera, you'll find me with a good cup of coffee, staying active, or dreaming up my next creative project.
