What motivated you to start your business?
Bayelle Films started because I’ve always been obsessed over storytelling and capturing moments that truly matter. Growing up in Cameroon and later moving to the U.S., I saw how powerful stories can be. They connect people, celebrate love, and keep memories alive. Filmmaking became my way of doing that, and now, with my wife by my side, we create these timeless films that feel like something families can treasure forever.
What’s really amazing, though, is how close we get to the couples we work with. Weddings are such an intimate day, and being invited into that space is so special. Over the years, we’ve built genuine friendships with many of the couples, and that connection becomes part of the story we tell. It’s heartwarming to know that our work isn’t just for the couple; It’s for their kids and future grandkids, too. Every time a couple or their family watches one of our films, I want it to remind them of what really matters and inspire them all over again. Relationships are at the heart of what I do, and that’s what makes this work so fulfilling.
What is your best advice for engaged couples?
Before I got married, I used to tell couples to soak it all in because I could see how overwhelming a wedding day can be. There are so many moving pieces, and as the one filming, I could tell how easy it is to get caught up in everything and barely remember what happened after the day is over. Then, when it was my turn to get married, I truly say it really is all a blur. The day flew by in a whirlwind of emotions, and it felt like I barely had time to process everything. Honestly, it was our wedding video that brought it all back for me. Every time I watch it, it feels like I’m right there again, and it makes me cry every single time.That’s why my best advice to couples is to take a deep breath and soak it all in. Focus on each other and the love surrounding you from your family and friends. Laugh, cry, and celebrate exactly how you feel in the moment. Those authentic, unfiltered moments are what make your wedding day unforgettable, and we’re here to make sure you have them to relive forever. Take it all in, you deserve it!
What is the most gratifying part of your business?
The best part of what we do is seeing how couples react when they watch their wedding film for the first time. Whether it’s a call right after they’ve seen it, a text full of excitement, or even a video of them crying and laughing as they relive their day, it just hits differently every time. Hearing their laughter, seeing their happy tears, and knowing we’ve captured their love story in a way that really connects, that’s what it’s all about. Those moments remind me why I love this so much. It’s proof that all the care and effort we put in really makes an impact.
What are you most passionate about right now?
We love collaborating with talented planners, photographers, florists, and designers who inspire us to keep raising the bar. Every wedding is unique, giving us the chance to push our creativity and refine our storytelling.Being part of such an incredible team and constantly challenging ourselves motivates us to deliver films that exceed expectations. That’s what keeps us inspired every single day.
Tell us what makes your business stand out?
We’re all about the journey as much as the final film. Sure, we create stunning luxury wedding films, but what really sets us apart is the care, connection, and surprises we weave into the entire experience. We take the time to really connect with our clients, making the whole experience feel meaningful and personal. A lot of couples tell us it’s like having their friends by their side and that’s something we take a lot of pride in.
We also obsess over capturing every moment, big or small, because we know how much those little details matter. Those quiet glances, big laughs, and little interactions are what make your day so unique. Our full-length documentary films are foundational to all the families we serve so they can relive them for years to come.
In the end, it’s not just about delivering a film. It’s about creating an experience and a legacy you’ll treasure forever.
