Tim SmithTim Smith is the owner and head videographer at Tim Alan Smith. He has been behind the camera since he was a student at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, where he minored in film, graduating with a BA in English in 1997.

Tim has led an artist's life since college; completing two manuscripts, working for Sports Illustrated, creating a commercial for worldwide MTV use, teaching elementary school, and performing stand up comedy throughout NYC.  While at Sports Illustrated, Tim interviewed former President Gerald Ford and was mentioned in an interview with Matt Lauer on the Today Show. As a comedian, Tim performed at the top clubs in NYC and made multiple television appearances.

It's film, though, where Tim found his true passion. He started his video production business in 2000 as a way to help support his desire to create independent films and documentaries. Along the way he developed a skill for documenting events and a clientele who appreciated the artistic yet understated way in which he documented their day.

As Tim Alan Smith has grown, so has the staff.  Currently there are five videographers - Geoff, Dan, Lu, Brian, and Adam - in addition to Tim. Each of our videographers brings a wealth of experience to the job and has received extensive guidance from Tim in order to emulate the nuances of his discerning eye and unobtrusive wedding day presence.

Clients ultimately choose Tim Alan Smith because they appreciate the look of the final edit. This is a direct result of Tim's storytelling ability, which he has honed through both his wedding work and the multiple creative ventures listed above. That is why, no matter which videographer films your wedding day, Tim ALWAYS edits the final video personally.
