Hi, I’m Ryan—Your Wedding Day Wingman
I’m the guy behind the lens at SkyHold Media. I started filming weddings over four years ago because I genuinely love the energy of a wedding day—the quirks, the chaos, the quiet in-between moments. No two couples are the same, and that’s what keeps me on my toes.
I keep things light and fun so you can relax and be yourselves. I won’t bark poses or steal the spotlight—I’d rather crack a joke and catch that unfiltered laugh that shows exactly who you are together.
This year, I expanded into photography with the same candid, story-first approach. I’m all about fair pricing, no hidden fees, and giving couples as much value as I can—because I remember what it felt like to plan a wedding on a tight budget.
I moved my family of six to Iowa two years ago, and my second-oldest, Will, has been by my side on shoots since day one (yes, he gets paid).
If you’re looking for someone who will capture your day honestly—with humor, heart, and zero pressure—I’d be honored to tell your story.
I was born and raised in Waseca, MN, and I am currently based out of the Twin Cities in Minnesota. I grew up very close to my family, and that is important to me. Since 2019, I have been doing wedding videography. I genuinely enjoy being present on this special day to capture lifelong memories and emotions for you, and then crafting these moments into a beautiful video for you to enjoy time and time again. I also strive to keep up with trends and help you share your beautiful day with loved ones.
Three years ago, I began filming weddings alongside my dad. In addition to this, I am involved in show choir, drama club, and soccer. Playing video games with my two brothers and father is something I thoroughly enjoy. While I initially assisted with the setup, I have progressed to become the primary second shooter over the last two years. My main job involves capturing the intricate details of the venue and offering an alternate camera perspective for first looks and other significant events of the day.
