Brent is considered one of the top wedding cinematographers based out of the Northeastern USA. He frequently travels the globe, documenting weddings for couples who deserve the best of the best. After growing up in Central Jersey, Brent chose to move down to Nashville for college and then shortly after graduation, officially founded 550Park out of New York City. He is a passionate tennis player, chef, and world adventurer.

Awarded Best of Zola
Brent's work jumped out at me before I even met him as something special, and his professionalism and experience shone through in our interactions with 550Park all the way through. He was so easy to work with and really helped put us both at ease (not the easiest task!) as well as taking the time to get to know us and what we wanted. He did a truly wonderful job capturing our outdoor wedding. His work is natural not just in how he works with the natural surroundings and lighting, but also in capturing so many great candid moments of us for our film. He even took the time to sit down and interview our family and friends to film sentimental clips of them sharing heartfelt stories about us and wishing us the best, (especially on such a busy day when we didn't get to spend tons of time individually with all of our loved ones) we can hear what they would have liked to say to us on our wedding day, lol. When we look at the films he created for us, we are instantly swept up in re-living that day. I would wholeheartedly recommend Brent to anyone looking for an excellent luxury videographer!

Time capsule films for memory collectors. Our ability to capture and preserve some of our most pivotal life moments really is a gift. Every film is intended to act as a time capsule for my couples to re-live in 25 years.

Kyrie was amazing from start to finish! From our introduction call I knew she was such a great fit for us and would match our energy and sass that we thrive on, on our special day. She’s your best hype girl and absolutely will get your partner out of their shell if one of you is camera shy. My husband hates being in front of a camera and Kyrie got some of the BEST shots and scenes we’ve ever had of him, and we’ve been together almost nine years now. I would see Kyrie again in a heartbeat just to hang out if she’s ever in our neck of the woods of Oregon. Our video is so special and including the pre and post ceremony interviews and family interviews was such an amazing treat we’ll cherish forever.

Hugest hugs and thank yous for all you did for our wedding. We could not be more appreciative that you were there with us. We both absolutely loved the way you handled everything on the day and talked about it many times. Your presence was joyful and calming and fit right in. You have a natural intuitive sense of where to be and how, which we really noticed and appreciated. Dave made a comment about how the best cinematographers have a quality that is hard to describe but that has to do with connection to others, reading situations, and holding space…Not to mention how great your patience and help was with all the logistical items that we were too overwhelmed to be on top of ourselves!! We planned to plug in the drives and quickly click through the footage yesterday to make sure it all worked ok technically, but we ended up spending an hour and a half glued to the screen in tears!! We are both over the moon with your work, it’s exactly what we wanted. It’s hard to believe our luck with getting you on board. All this to say — thank you!!!!

Anthony was easy to work with at the wedding. I was a DJ at the wedding I worked with him and from an artistic standpoint, what I saw of his work so far was great. Just like the rest of the vendors at this wedding, he went with the flow and went above and beyond to give the couple the best experience they could get especially under the crazy weather circumstances we had! Rain almost all day, thunderstorms, a tornado warning (it was an outdoor tent wedding) and some high winds that almost took out the tent! Despite that, he remained positive and fun. His needs from me were minimal (tapping into my sound system) and he made sure I wasn't busy when he asked me about it. If the rest of his work is as good as the little I've seen so far, you can't go wrong with his video service!
