incredible stories deserve to be told

Hi, I’m Janna Schmidt …

Fun-loving, intentional, and creative - I’ve loved stories all my life, and now I get to tell them every day through film. My days are spent loving my people, adventuring with my dog, thinking of good ideas, and cooking amazing food. I’m a mom, wife, and videographer, but my real super-power is coming into any situation and making it better.

and I’m Marissa Jensen …

Down-to-earth, considerate, and artistic - art has been a huge part of my life since I was very little. After 7 years as a high school art teacher, I put down my pencil and picked up a camera. I didn’t know I could love other people’s stories this much. I obsess over the little moments of beauty in life and am so inspired by my own kids and love.

YOUR STORY IS WORTH REMEMBERING.

You know your wedding day will fly by. You want to soak in every moment, and know the gift of time spent with your loved ones. You want a videographer & photographer who take the time to find out what makes you, you - someone who truly sees you and makes your priorities their own. You won’t settle for someone who takes nice videos, the heart of your search is for a storyteller.

…and then you found Meadowlark.

Can I let you in on a little secret? Great wedding films are made when you’re free to relax and truly be yourselves!

We promise to listen to you, advocate for what you want, and crack some jokes along the way. You can count on us to be good communicators and a low stress vendor – a guide to walk you through the ups and downs of your wedding, and professionals who will create a tears running-down-your-face, cheeks-hurt-from-smiling, one-of-a-kind film that you’ll want to watch on repeat.
