About Sapphire Cinema

Ryan Hawkland

Owner

Welcome! My name is Ryan, and I’ve been crafting wedding films since 2018. My goal is to capture cinematic moments that you can cherish and revisit for a lifetime. I strive to create a beautiful, timeless film—one that you’ll be proud to share with your children and grandchildren one day. I understand the emotional power of video and how it preserves real moments, real feelings, and real memories—forever.

I create wedding films that are uniquely tailored to your vision and your story. Nearly every couple I’ve spoken with has said the same thing—their wedding day was the best day of their lives, but it went by in a blur. That’s exactly why wedding videography is so meaningful. It’s more than a service—it’s an investment in preserving the emotions, moments, and memories that pass by all too quickly. In every film, I include heartfelt moments—big and small—even ones you may have missed. From the laughter of loved ones to quiet glances and happy tears, these are the pieces that make your film truly special and something to cherish forever.

    I wanted to write this little review for videographer we hired for our wedding. This person was such a pleasure to work with from the very beginning, he called & introduced himself over the phone, got to know us, asked all the details and was very prepared. He has such Artistic Vision. His eye for details, composition, and lighting was amazing! He was so Creative, gave us ideas what to do and how to act to get the best results, he also suggested to write a note to my husband, interviewed our kids ( that turned out incredible) His Professionalism was out of this world, I loved his innovative ideas and approaches he used during the shoot.  I also have to acknowledge his punctuality, preparedness, and overall demeanor.  He made us feel comfortable and at ease, even if we were initially nervous.  It was very easy to communicate with him, his responsiveness, and clarity during the Shoot, the atmosphere and everything was just great, he took the best shots and video turned out incredible and beautiful, the interaction was great, we enjoyed every minute of it 
I would highly recommend him. Again and again, great professional videographer who has the best skill communicating and doing his job!

    The best decision we made for our wedding (besides marrying each other) was hiring Ryan. :’) From the moment we met him, we knew we were in the best hands. Ryan has this calm, grounding presence that immediately made us feel at ease.. like we were hanging out with a close friend who just happened to have a camera in his hand. On our wedding day, he captured everything so effortlessly. The laughter, the tears, the quiet in-between moments.. we didn’t even notice half the time he was filming, but somehow he managed to catch all the magic. Watching our video back felt like reliving a dream. It was cinematic, emotional, and incredibly us. Ryan didn’t just document the day.. he told our story. His attention to detail, his creative eye, and the way he edits with so much heart is something truly special. We’ve watched our film more times than we can count (and cried every single time). If you’re on the fence about who to trust with your wedding memories, let this be your sign: Ryan is the one. We’re endlessly grateful to have had him with us on the best day of our lives. Thank you, Ryan, for giving us something we’ll treasure forever. With all our love, Kaylie John

    From the moment we booked Sapphire Cinema, they were a joy to work with. Their communication style was fun and open to all of our ideas, which made the planning process a breeze. On the day of the wedding, their team captured so many amazing candid moments that we will cherish forever. They truly added an extra special touch to our day, interacting with the bridal party and guests in such a warm and personable way. Sapphire Cinema was also very accommodating of some of our more "creative" ideas, while still managing to beautifully document all the meaningful moments. We couldn't be happier with the final product and highly recommend them to any couple looking for a videography team that is both talented and a delight to work with.
