INTRODUCTION
Connelly Ryan
My love for film and storytelling started 10+ years ago as a freshman in highschool. I found an old camera in a cupboard and taught myself how to use it. My mom would drop me off and pick me up from weddings due to me not even being able to drive yet. Since then i've only fallen more and more in love with telling love stories around the world and have been lucky enough to do this in places like Austria, Switzerland, Mexico, Costa Rica, and many more places. While film may be my full time job, it's also my hobby. It's something I love to do, something I am always trying to get better at by watching others films and taking inspiration from them. Film truly is part of who I am.
The Investment
every love story deserves to be preserved with INTENTION and care beyond measure.
In 2025, my couples invested an average of $7,344 on their wedding films — a reflection of the care, craftsmanship, and emotion poured into every story I tell. I go beyond documentation; I create authentic films that preserve your love with intention and artistry. Each film is thoughtfully personalized to YOUR day, ensuring YOUR story is captured in a way that feels timeless, cinematic, and entirely your own.
WEDDING FILMS for couples who feel deeply, and celebrate loudly
Connelly's eye for capturing detail and cinematic aesthetic shows clearly as he brings couples stories to life in their very own film. The days of traditional "wedding videos" are long gone. Wedding films are now one of the main needs of a wedding celebration.
"forget what you've ever known about wedding films and imagine what yours could be"
I started Altalu because I’ve always been in love with storytelling—especially the kind that moves you, that sticks with you. Weddings for me felt like the perfect way to tell those stories, capturing real love in its rawest, most beautiful form. To do that justice, I use Netflix-approved cameras—the same ones used in actual films—because your story deserves to be told like one. I'm a big believer that you deserve someone who's equally invested in your day as you guys are.
Authentic Storytelling
Capturing your story with dedication to quality
From first contact to you receiving your film, Altalu is dedicated to an elevated experience at every step. For those who value genuine connection and intentional moments made with family and friends, Altalu is the the film studio for you.
Alatlie + Jay
"Connelly genuinely made our day so special. He was just a happy soul the entire day, and I honestly forgot he was filming. His presence was so natural, you forgot there was a camera. He caught the moments, big and small, perfectly. And then the film he created afterwards? Seriously a work of art. We got the uncut version where it was an hour long of all the footage he took, and I was expecting it to be mostly spliced together, because editing that much film would literally be like editing a movie. But that’s exactly what he did. Watching that film felt like watching our wedding as a movie. It’s truly something my wife and I will cherish for the rest of our lives."
