The real beauty lies in what happens naturally: the nervous breath before “I do,” the way your fingers interlace during a toast, the light shifting just as you walk back down the aisle. My job is to preserve that—with care, restraint, and an artist’s eye—so that when you revisit your film years from now, it doesn’t just show you the day… it returns you to it.
Every detail is handled with care, even the ones you’ll never notice. When I mic the groom, the microphone is hidden—never a distraction. When I move through your day, I do so like a guest, not a director. The magic is there, but it never pulls focus. That’s the art: preserving what’s real without ever interfering with it.
Whether you're getting married in Minneapolis, across the Midwest, or somewhere far beyond, my goal is always the same—to create a timeless, emotional wedding film that captures not just how it looked, but how it felt.

I’m always on the hunt for new spots to eat—especially Italian. Got a recommendation? Let me know!

Travel keeps me creatively full. Europe, Arizona, and the Florida Keys are a few favorites I always return to.

I love getting lost in a theater—film is where my storytelling started. Indie dramas, sweeping scores, and great light always inspire me.

Leary Studios was built on the quiet belief that love—real love—deserves to be remembered with depth, care, and elegance. My aim is simple: to craft wedding films that feel less like documentation and more like memory itself—honest, cinematic, and deeply personal, as if you’re watching it all unfold for the very first time.
Every couple is one of a kind—and at Leary Studios, I believe their wedding film should be too. I craft cinematic, story-driven films that reflect the unique beauty of each love story across Minneapolis, St. Paul, and beyond.
We can say with confidence, you want Devin behind the camera when it comes to capturing the smallest details, most intimate moments & putting together a piece that highlights ever last detail of your cherished day. He focuses on the raw, the real, the JOY."
Devin was one the best decisions we made for our wedding. From our first meeting to through the wedding day, he was such a calming presence, always smiling and always reassuring. We barely noticed him taking all his videos but when we got our trailer back we were in absolute awe. Thank you Devin for giving us the best wedding gift !
