Shepherdstown Wedding Photography & Film

West Virginia’s oldest town, the Potomac at its feet, and The Bavarian Inn on the bluff — we have filmed and photographed it all.

Where historic streets meet riverside light

Shepherdstown packs more charm per block than any town in the Panhandle — German Street’s storefronts, a college-town energy, and the Potomac bluffs that give The Bavarian Inn some of the best ceremony views in West Virginia. We are based in Martinsburg, fifteen minutes down the road, so we shoot here often and know exactly where the light lands.

One team captures your photo and film together, planned as a single timeline. Below: real Shepherdstown wedding films, selected work, and the local notes we share with couples planning here.

Shepherdstown weddings, on film

Both of these were shot at The Bavarian Inn — same venue, two completely different days. That is the point: your film should feel like yours.

The local knowledge

Getting married in Shepherdstown: what to know

The Bavarian Inn factor

The bluff-top ceremony sites face west over the Potomac — golden hour here is the real deal. We plan portraits around the river light, not against it.

German Street portraits

The historic storefronts, brick sidewalks, and the Rumsey Monument overlook make a five-minute portrait walk feel like three different cities.

Town and gown calendar

Shepherd University move-in and homecoming weekends fill the town’s lodging fast. If your date overlaps, lock room blocks early — we will flag it when you send your date.

Do you photograph and film weddings at The Bavarian Inn?

Yes — multiple weddings there, in multiple seasons. Two full films from the Inn are right above, and we are happy to share complete galleries from the venue.

How far is Shepherdstown from your base?

Fifteen minutes. We are in Martinsburg, so there is no travel fee conversation and no travel-day risk — we are local.

Do you do photo and video together?

That is our specialty. One team, one timeline, one contract — your photographer and filmmaker plan the day together instead of competing for the same moments.

When will we get everything?

Social teasers within 24 hours, your wedding trailer within 14 days, and the full gallery and 4K film within 8 weeks — guaranteed.
