Meet Phil
I've always loved stories but didn't have the voice to share them. I was quiet growing up, and in many ways, I still am. Fifteen years ago, I was teaching middle school math in Brooklyn, NY. Another teacher asked me what I was going to do all summer. After an exhausting first year, I realized that I hadn't ever stopped to think about summer at all. That day I decided to buy a camera. That year, I found my voice.
For video, I specialize in short-form wedding films, which means I really focus on making you an amazing “movie-like” production that you’ll actually want to watch for years after your wedding day. Every film is uniquely tailored to each couple. I highlight your personality as we focus on story in each film.
For photography, I bring the same storytelling approach to capturing your wedding day. From candid moments to timeless portraits, I ensure every image reflects the emotions, connections, and joy of your celebration. Whether you're looking for photography, videography, or both, I'm here to help tell your story beautifully.

“Ahhhhhhh, when can I start? We had an incredible wedding 5 years ago and we are glad that we got Small Story Wedding Films to capture our videography. On our yearly anniversary, my husband and I go back to watch the video of our wedding. Philip Small captured the colors, magic, emotions, and overall festivities of our wedding. He is very professional and amazingly very calm. Nigerian weddings can be overwhelming with strong personalities but Philip maneuvered the his way and handled his business with excellent precision. Till today, we get great compliments on the video including from family across the continent. We are glad we got Small Story Wedding Films to capture our big day!”
