Filmmaking rooted in emotion, art, and authenticity—Ottawa-based, globally inspired

Hey, I'm Rita
Your new favorite third wheel and the creative mind behind Films by Rita.
I'm an Ottawa & Destination Wedding Videographer with a passion for turning real love into unforgettable films. I’ve had a camera in my hands since I was a kid — and now, nearly a decade into doing this professionally, I still get butterflies every time I press record.
There’s just something magical about capturing the raw, emotional, joy-filled moments of a wedding day. I specialize in creating wedding films that feel — the kind that give you goosebumps, make you laugh, cry (sometimes both at once), and bring you right back to how it all felt.
Whether it’s a tearful vow, a stolen glance, or a wild dance floor moment, I’m there to turn it into cinematic gold.
Over the years, I’ve had the honor of documenting love stories across Canada and around the world — from Lebanon and Dubai to Qatar and Kuwait. While I’ve also crafted music videos, scroll-stopping reels, and commercials, weddings will always have my heart.
What makes working with me different? I bring a whole lot of heart, clear creative direction (so you’ll never feel awkward on camera), and a bubbly energy that makes it all feel easy and fun. You don’t just get a videographer — you get a hype girl, a bubbly presence, and someone who genuinely loves celebrating love.
Can’t wait to celebrate yours. Let’s turn your wedding into a memorable masterpiece!
With love,
Rita
