When you think of cinematic wedding videography in South Jersey and Philadelphia, Alyssa Kaufman is a name that rises to the top—for good reason. Alyssa’s work is more than a service; it’s a deeply personal art form grounded in authenticity, emotion, and connection. What began with a pink Kodak snapshot camera has grown into a full-time passion for capturing the raw, unfiltered beauty of weddings. As Alyssa puts it, “This isn’t just a job for me—it’s personal.”

Alyssa’s commitment to her couples is as heartfelt as the films she delivers, which is why the Grey Matter Direct team and its SEO (Search Engine Optimization) specialists love working with her. Her style blends thoughtful composition with a documentary sensibility, always prioritizing genuine emotion over staged moments. As Sarah, one of her brides, put it: “She has this way of highlighting special moments that makes you feel the day all over again… She really puts in effort to make every single video the best it can be, and it shows.”

We’ve had the privilege of supporting Alyssa with her marketing strategy, helping her expand her audience and showcase her storytelling craft across digital platforms. But the foundation of her success isn’t strategy—it’s soul. Her films are unique and thoughtfully designed to heighten the emotion. Every single detail and frame carefully composed to evoke and stir something deep within. She doesn’t just tell a story; she makes you feel it, fully, from the first moment to the last. She also takes the time to get to know every couple she works with, building trust and friendship along the way. “The connection you will form is more than client & videographer,” said Kimberly. “It will turn into a friendship (and fanship!) for the long run.”  Click Here to watch Kimberly and Franks Wedding Film

Alyssa has a genuine love for people first and foremost and believes that shines through in her work, and we agree! That connection is Alyssa’s superpower. Whether she’s calming a nervous bride, as she did for Nina during a sudden downpour—“She swooped in and took the time to talk to me like a friend and assured me that everything would be okay! She also turned the rain into the best decoration nature could gift us”—or blending effortlessly with other vendors to keep the energy light and the day flowing smoothly, Alyssa brings an irreplaceable presence to the wedding day.

And if her clients weren’t already raving, they’ve become lifelong fans after watching their films. “Two years later, we are able to relive the best day of our lives thanks to Alyssa,” Kimberly shared. Kara, another bride, summed it up perfectly: “I ended my first call with her feeling like I had made a new friend and secured the best videographer around.”

Of course, no story about Alyssa is complete without mentioning her trusty (and sometimes demanding) sidekick—her cat, Aria. According to Alyssa, “Aria is the unsung hero… often found draped over my keyboard, pressing the wrong buttons and demanding attention while I edit.” Aria might interrupt a few workflows, but she’s clearly part of the creative magic behind Alyssa Kaufman Films. You can even catch glimpses of Aria in Alyssa’s Instagram stories—because even wedding videographers need a little help from their cats.

From high-energy wedding days to quiet editing sessions with Aria at her side, Alyssa brings heart, humor, and unmatched artistry to everything she does. If you’re looking for a wedding filmmaker who will celebrate your love story like it’s her own, you won’t find a better fit than Alyssa Kaufman.
