Most people think wedding video means a long production, big team and bigger budget. But what if your story could begin with something simpler - and more powerful?


At Amber Shore Pictures, every wedding photography collection includes a handcrafted 15–60 second wedding announcement reel. It’s a cinematic, vertical-format highlight that distills your day into one beautiful, emotional breath - and our couples love it.


What Is a Wedding Announcement Reel?

It’s exactly what it sounds like - a short, cinematic reel designed to share the news with the world. Set to music and edited with care, it's delivered just days after the wedding while everything is still fresh. More than a preview, it’s a beautifully distilled moment - a breath of emotion that brings you right back to how it all felt. It’s made to be shared, watched again (and again), and yes - it looks amazing on your phone.

Why We Include It in Every Collection

We believe your wedding deserves to be remembered in more than still images alone - but that doesn’t mean you need a feature film to relive the best moments. This short video gives you the best of both worlds: visual storytelling and emotional immediacy, without the commitment of a full video production.

You won’t find this with most wedding photographers. And you definitely won’t find it done like this.


Why Couples Love It

Here’s what we’ve heard:

“It was only 30 seconds - but somehow, it felt like the whole day.”

“We sent it to everyone. My mom cried watching it .”

“It held us over while we waited for the full gallery - and honestly, we keep coming back to it.”


This reel becomes the first chapter in your wedding story. It arrives quickly, it’s easy to share, and it sets the tone for everything else to come.


Designed for This Era - But Made to Last

Just because it’s short doesn’t mean it’s throwaway. We treat every announcement reel with the same intention and care we bring to our full galleries. This isn’t a gimmick - it’s part of how we see and preserve your story.


Want More Than the Reel?

If you’re also considering a full wedding film - something with vows, toasts and layered storytelling—we offer Hybrid Wedding Coverage, which includes both photography and a cinematic wedding film.


Whichever photography collection you choose, the reel is yours to keep - a quiet, powerful glimpse of the day you’ll never want to forget.
