"Paragon Films — I want to thank Brandi, Gayan, and Ruwani—this remarkable trio—for flawlessly capturing the essence of our special day! Their talent and dedication truly shines through! From the early stages of wedding planning, even before securing a venue, I was certain that I wanted Paragonfilms as our photo/videography team, and I am so grateful that they were available. The photos and video surpassed my expectations; I am truly speechless! Our family and friends are in awe of their work! 1000/10 recommend!"

"Working with Paragonfilms LLC was a blessing — my husband reached out to Ruwani to do our engagement shoot and she was absolutely amazing. Ruwani communicated well, listened to our wants and needs, made us camera-shy people extremely comfortable and helped us capture our moments with grace. This company doesn't just take pictures, they truly capture emotions and tell stories through still pictures and videos. HIGHLY RECOMMEND."

Your Questions, Answered

How far in advance should I book a session?

We recommend reaching out at least four to six weeks ahead of your desired date to ensure availability and allow time for collaborative planning. However, we do accommodate last-minute projects when our schedule permits.

Do you offer customizable packages?

Absolutely. Each project begins with a consultation where we discuss your objectives, preferred style, and logistical needs. From there, we craft a package that fits both your vision and budget.

How will I receive my images?

Final, retouched images are delivered via a secure online gallery. High-resolution downloads and print options are included.

How do I know if I need 2nd shooter?

Your wedding day is filled with moments happening all at once, your vows, and at the same time your parents wiping their tears; your entrance, and your guests’ reactions. A second shooter makes it possible to capture both sides of your story. One person focuses on you, while the other documents the people you love most. It brings more emotion, more angles, and a fuller, richer film and photo gallery.

A second shooter is a great addition when: Large guest count (100+): Ensures all candid moments and reactions are captured.

Different locations: Covers both partners getting ready or events happening in separate places.

Simultaneous moments: One focuses on you, the other captures reactions and angles happening at the same time.
More variety: Doubles the coverage for detail shots, wide angles, and guest moments.

No first look: Helps keep the timeline smooth while portraits and cocktail hour overlap.
