KEEP UP WITH MY DAILY CREATIONS, WEDDING STORIES AND LIFE AS A WEDDING FILMMAKER

And for one evening, everyone’s story overlaps. F And for one evening, everyone’s story overlaps.

From the people who raised you, to the friends who shaped you. The ones who arrived early in your life, the ones who came later. The ones who stayed and the ones who travelled multiple countries just to be here.

For a few hours, every version of your life exists in the same space. It’s strange how rare this is…

Years from now, this might be what you’ll miss the most.
For one evening, everyone was here. ✨ 

Thank you @manon_decoster and Ties, for having me there.

Roots don’t always keep you still, sometimes, they Roots don’t always keep you still, sometimes, they pull you back, way back. To France, to a story that isn’t entirely yours, yet somehow it lives inside you.

Watching Abby and Jasper is like seeing two different worlds learning the same language and building something louder than both of them. Two different rhythms, not trying to sync, just creating an energy that feels entirely their own. This story stays with me. It reminds me that what truly holds doesn’t come from matching, but from letting things be exactly as they are.

Château La Durantie carries its own memory and an evening that never tried to be perfect, only honest.
It’s about the space between who you were… and who you become beside someone else. Not finding someone to complete you, but someone who shows you that the fractures aren’t flaws, they’re where it begins.
xo, Alena

I honestly don’t even know where to begin. It’s on I honestly don’t even know where to begin.
It’s one of those moments that leaves you with a big smile and so much excitement. ✨ 

I’ve been nominated for 2025 Europe’s Best Wedding Filmmaker by @wayupnorth and… wow! It’s an honor to be recognized in this way. 

I’m grateful for this nomination and thankful for someone out there who sees something deeper in my work. I thank you for feeling something in the pauses, the fragments in all the imperfect moments that carry so much feeling.

I thank you, my couples, who have trusted me with stories, who watch, who cheer, who stay present. This recognition is as much yours as it is mine. You carry these films further than I ever could. You live in every frame, in every emotion, in every memory. 

So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. For seeing more. For believing. For being here. This is a step in a journey we share, and I’m soooo grateful to have you with me. 🤍
A different kind of love. It’s International Dog D A different kind of love.
It’s International Dog Day, so I find it appropriate to finally introduce you to my little sidekick, Izzy.
Every wedding story I tell passes this quiet dog companion first. She’s been with me for the past five seasons, through the late night edits and the silence between frames. She’s been the most loyal worker who always naps on the job. Yet I swear she’s soaked up more speeches, laughter and tears than anyone else. 🐾

She reminds me every day that love isn’t just in deep, shared words, but in the everyday company, in the calmness that feels just right. And lately, on my calls with couples, I hear the same thing, it’s not about grand gestures, but the quiet, everyday moments shared together.

I’m curious what little daily presence reminds you what love really feels like? Don’t hold back to share.
