Unbeatable videographer for our Canmore wedding! If you are searching for a videographer who ticks all of the boxes, Jeff is it. After an arduous search, we settled on Jeff because of his videography/editing style, which we could see was professional, cinematic, and tasteful without being forced or overdone. We also really liked that he offers full-length footage of key wedding moments such as the ceremony and speeches, in addition to the optional highlight reel. What we didn't yet know, but quickly found out was how wonderful he would be to work with on the wedding day. His personality is kind, helpful and easy-going. Take note! This is SO important on a busy wedding day with so many moving pieces. We found out last minute we were missing an HDMI-to-USB-C adapter, and he kindly brought one and lent it to us. Overall, he really helped to make our wedding day less stressful and more enjoyable. He doesn't work on a set number of hours, but when the wedding ran a bit late because the hotel made a mistake with the food, he stayed longer to make sure he got the footage he needed. He was flexible with us when discussing which package to go with - we initially signed up with his basic package and decided closer to the wedding to upgrade to include a highlight reel. We were happy that we asked for the highlight reel - it turned out spectacularly. His thoughtful attention to detail was evident in the editing of the final video. He was also responsive to some requests we made afterwards, and updated the videos accordingly. In the end, he wound up giving us many "bonuses" that technically fell outside of the contract, but Jeff is just the kind of vendor who is willing to go above and beyond to make the client happy. Fully recommend! Update: Looking back at our video almost a year later. It is perfect and captured the magic of the day so beautifully.

Jeff is absolutely incredible to work with. From the very first conversation, to even after the delivery of the final product, I could not have asked for a better experience. The video footage is our favorite take away from our day, and Jeff could not have done a better job. I am so grateful that we got to have him, and cannot recommend him enough to future couples. I promise you will not regret it! 🙂

Jeff was absolutely amazing and went above and beyond for our wedding in September. Despite our wedding day falling on literally THE hottest day of the year (37 degrees + forest fire), Jeff was so professional, positive, and so easy to work with. He made us and everyone around us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. And of course, his work is amazing! We love our videos and you can tell he puts so much thought and effort into every single shot. We are so happy that he was there to perfectly capture our day. 100% would recommend Jeff if you're looking for a talented videographer to capture your special day!

We had Jeff as our videographer this past August and he was amazing to work with! He really made a huge effort in making sure he was capturing what was most important to us. We just got our film a few days ago and it has been on repeat ever since. It truly does bring us back to our special day. We couldn't be happier with how it turned out! Thanks again (:

Jeff was so lovely to work with. He was so easy going and professional. Even through the pandemic he made it super easy to figure out everything and replan. The video quality was so lovely and we are so pleased with our videos! I didn't have a lot of ideas about what I wanted for my wedding video, so Jeff let his creativity take over and made a spectacular video that has made my loved ones cry (happy cry!) I highly suggest working with Jeff, you won't regret it!!

Our experience with Jeff was nothing short of spectacular! His professionalism throughout the entire process was incredible, and we were so impressed with the final outcome of the film. His style of filming was discrete and non-invasive, yet he managed to be in the perfect spot to capture all of the special moments throughout our day. The story he crafted with our wedding footage was absolute perfection, and it was better than we could have imagined. If you are considering adding Jeff to your special day, do it!

Arbour & Altar is owned and operated by Jeff Clovis and team of talented videographers and editors. 

We are known for creating cinematic, genuine, emotional and high quality wedding films and ceremony videos. With over 100 weddings under our belts, we’ve honed our craft to provide timeless media for couples all over western Canada and beyond. 

We believe wedding videos should be treasured heirlooms for you and your family, which can be watched and shown to friends and family for the years, or decades, to come. Because of this, we’re obsessed with providing not only the best quality possible, but films that showcase the people, traditions and values that are unique to your wedding day. 

We can’t wait to hear from you.

“Coming from a film production background myself, I definitely knew what I did and did not want for our wedding film. Jeff was brilliant about listening to my somewhat unusual requests, and assured me that he would get all the specifics that I wanted. I did not need to worry, because he included everything that I asked for, as well as things I’d never thought of. Whatever I was expecting from our wedding film, the final result was so much more than that.”
