Meet Ashley Film Studios · luxury wedding videography & photography
Internationally acclaimed cinematography and photography, led by the husband-and-wife team of James and Keri Jeffrey alongside lead photographer Colleen Reilly.
Your love story, artfully told
Heart-felt storytelling and an uncompromising artistic vision.
Ashley Film Studios is a premier wedding cinematography and photography studio known for heart-felt storytelling and an uncompromising artistic vision. Led by the husband-and-wife team of James and Keri, with lead photographer Colleen Reilly, we are recognized for our ability to blend timeless cinematic elegance with the raw, authentic spirit of your celebration. From sweeping aerial views of the Hudson Valley to the intimate, tearful whispers of a private vow exchange, our films and photographs capture the essence of your love story with a modern, sophisticated flair.
It is a profound honor to be the silent observers of the day you say “I do.” Our goal is to move beyond simply recording an event; we aim to craft a handcrafted film and a gallery of photographs that capture the true heart and soul of your relationship. We think of your wedding film and photographs as a living legacy, a magnetic portrait of your identity as a couple that resonates long after the music has stopped.
While we primarily document luxury celebrations in Long Island, NYC, and the Hamptons, our passion for storytelling takes us to destination weddings worldwide.
The faces behind the lens
Cinematic and photographic storytelling built on heritage and technical artistry.
Keri | The Heart & The Vision
For Keri, cinematography is a heritage. Some of her earliest memories are of holding the light for her father, an award-winning Kodak photographer. She has an intuitive eye for the “in-between” moments: the laughter, the unprompted tears, the quiet glances that define your relationship.
James | The Precision & The Sound
A certified audio engineer with a background in national broadcasting, James served as video engineer and editor for a nationwide television show from its very first episode. His path into film began on reel film and linear editing equipment, and every edit is crafted so your film feels polished, professional, and undeniably yours.
Ashley | Content Creation
Filmmaker and lead of our Wedding Content Creation team, capturing the candid, behind-the-scenes energy of your day and delivering your social-ready gallery within 48 hours.
Colleen | Lead Photographer
A lifelong maker (drawing, painting, calligraphy) now in her eighth year as a wedding photographer, Colleen leads photography at Ashley Film Studios. A therapist by day, she is drawn to human connection in every form, and photographs the unguarded moments between people who love each other. She plans each wedding on one shared timeline with James and Keri, and her hand-edited galleries are colour-matched to your film so the two feel like one story told two ways.
One studio, one timeline: our filmmakers and photographer plan and shoot your day together, so photo and video move with your celebration rather than around it. Explore our wedding photography.
Our commitment: the best of both worlds
You shouldn’t have to choose between cinematic quality and instant gratification.
Cinematic & photographic excellence
Professional Sony, Nikon and RED camera systems, state-of-the-art lenses and pristine audio capture, for a timeless film and gallery you’ll treasure for generations.
The 48-hour experience
As pioneers in Wedding Content Creation, we deliver social-ready, vertical highlights within 48 hours of your wedding.
Hand-edited, never AI
Every frame is edited, sound-designed and color-graded in-house by James and Keri, and every photograph is hand-edited by Colleen. No automated templates.
A boutique calendar
We limit our bookings each year to ensure a personalized experience, treating every couple with the meticulous care their legacy deserves.
Uncompromising technical fidelity
Elite storytelling requires elite technology.
We anchor our production in the industry’s most respected optical powerhouses. By integrating the versatile precision of Sony and Nikon mirrorless systems with the legendary, raw cinematic power of RED digital cinema cameras, we capture your day with unparalleled depth, texture, and fidelity, from professional audio capture to a stunning 4K raw workflow, with the same editorial eye carried into every photograph.
A legacy of excellence
Professionalism that feels like family.
With years of award-winning experience, James, Keri and associates have built a reputation for professionalism that feels like family. Beyond weddings, our parent company, New York Media Films, brings this same cinematic storytelling to corporate brands and commercial productions, proving that a powerful story is the most important element of any film.
Whether your celebration is held in the vibrant heart of New York or within the luxury landscapes of South Florida (Palm Beach, Miami, or Naples), we bring the same dedication, artistry, and technical precision to every project.
