Summer 2025 | 11 Wedding Cinematography by True Filmmakers A small studio with a big agency feel, Reagan Studios is an acclaimed film production company operating out of Virginia in the US. Renowned for the intimate, heartwarming approach it takes to projects, the creative team behind the business specialise in everything from documentary films and music videos to weddings, highlighting their versatility. Recognised as the Best Wedding Videography Studio 2025 – USA, we caught up with Keith Reagan, the company’s V.P. and editor, on the back of its win. Reagan Studios is an award-winning production company that began life as the creative outlet of Keith and Lisa Reagan, with its first wedding being filmed in April 2010. When the couple’s son, Collins Reagan, started helping with its films a few years later, the company really started to take off, with the music video it shot for Lindsey Highlander’s ‘Flowers Ain’t Gonna Fix This’ climbing to the number one spot on Country Music Television’s Pure 12-Pack Country Music Video Countdown. Following this remarkable achievement, as well as its continued success filming weddings, Reagan Studios branched out into commercial videography, travelling to Florida to make a series of training videos for Boaters University based around the topic of surviving at sea. This resulted in the creation of the company’s first shortfilm documentary, The First Rescue: A Look Back, which gave it a taste of film festivals. More short and impactful non-fiction films have followed suit in the years since. Thus, Keith explained: “When a couple hires Reagan Studios for their wedding, they get the same team which filmed, edited, and produced films that have won awards from Hollywood to Cannes.” Having a team like this on hand to capture the magic of one of the most special days in a person’s life through their use of stunning videography is a great way to ensure that not a single moment is missed. The finished film is then also much more than just a wedding video – it’s a beautiful cinematic masterpiece. Like all the best cinematic works, the films made by Reagan Studios have a distinct sense of personality. However, rather than being the personality of the filmmaker, these particular shoots embody the personality and style of the couple. This is achieved by the team getting to know them and their vision well ahead of time, before they utilise state-of-the-art filmmaking equipment and an abundance of professional experience to capture everything – from the vows and the first dance to those glances. Set apart by its quality, Reagan Studios shoots both local (in and around Richmond, VA) and destination weddings upon request, bringing the same unrelenting sense of creativity to every project. A couple of different packages are also available, including the Reagan Studios Showcase – which includes a video of the full ceremony that is fully edited and mixed, a highlight reel music video featuring any song the couple choose, access to a custom online portal housing all edited videos, and more. Alongside this is the Reagan Studios I Do package, a two-day destination cinema experience inclusive of everything available through the Reagan Studios Showcase, as well as event photography captured by outsourced photographers directed by Reagan Studios. The one extra day afforded here makes all the difference, as it allows more time to rehearse the shots ahead of time and keep invasions on the big day to a minimum. Having found tremendous success across its wedding cinematography offerings, Reagan Studios is looking to expand the wedding side of the business over the coming years, all whilst continuing with the music videos, commercial productions, and documentary films the team enjoy so much. The latter in particular continue to receive industry acclaim, with Neptune’s Fallen Heroes, its latest documentary, featured in several film festivals, netting seven official selections, two nominations, one finalist, and two wins. As it continues to go from strength to strength, Reagan Studios is more passionate than ever about remaining a small, luxury-focused company, working on only a choice few projects at a time to ensure it never sacrifices on quality. Keith told us: “Reagan Studios has stayed small to preserve artistry. Instead of expanding with a number of videographers, editors, and directors, we only select a job if one of the principals is available to film and produce. This reduces our workflow but maintains the highest standards.” With more than 300 filmed weddings under its belt, each different but equally spectacular, Reagan Studios – which is today headed up by Collins Reagan – has more than solidified itself as a fitting recipient of this title.
