Meet Christopher Arce
Founder and lead cinematographer & photographer
I started Topher Films in 2017. Over time, it became a family business. Now my wife, my brother, and my best friends are part of the team.
My goal is simple. Help you stay present.
We blend in for real moments, then step in with calm guidance when you need it. Photo and film are created in the same style, so everything feels cohesive.
The flowers will fade. The food will be gone. The music will stop.
But years from now, your photos and film will still bring you back to the exact way it felt.

Our style. Our philosophy.
Your wedding is not a content shoot
We capture your day as it happens. Real moments, real emotion and no performance.
We treat your wedding day with respect. We blend in like a guest, so you can be present. When you need it, we step in with calm direction so you feel confident and look like yourself.
Our style blends art, cinema, and a natural approach, but the focus stays the same. You, your people, and your story.

What Our Couples Say
SOME LOVE FROM OUR COUPLES...
Topher films has a style that captures the audience, much like a movie would. The sound quality on the videos was also much better than some others we had looked at and the transitions were seamless. You could tell a lot of skill and hard work was put into the post-processing of each video clip.
We loved your keen eye for detail in the videos we had seen. You have a way of telling a story with your work. We knew we wanted great quality and vantage points! When people have a passion for their craft, it shows! You can definitely see that in the work that has been done with Topher films.
Why They Chose Us?
“The most cherished item!”
Chris’s vision and expertise was memorizing to watch and so amazing to be a part of. Getting to work with him on the most important day of our lives was something I would never take back. He was very professional, listened to opinions and always directed us in what we should be doing. He always had a good attitude and was very patient. I have shown my wedding video to anyone and everyone who will let me; it truly is the most precious/cherished item we have from our day. If you are looking for a videographer for any event, I highly recommend Chris!

“Beyond greatness!”
DUDE! What did you do!? I (we) cannot stop watching the videos! I know Kellie has been telling you the same thing, but I have to reiterate that we are completely blown away by how amazing the videos are. Every last detail is perfect. We expected something great, but what you delivered is beyond greatness and I can't thank you enough. I'm so glad you took the chance and did something different with the format and presentation. We are seriously speechless with how happy we are with everything! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

“Made us feel comfortable”
We loved having Chris and his team capture our wedding day on video! They did an amazing job of capturing special moments throughout the day. Chris gave clear direction, made us feel comfortable, and was understanding and respectful of my requests throughout the day.
The videos turned out stunningly and we have loved watching them over and over and showing them to family and friends. We are grateful to have these special videos to look back always!
