Meet Your Filmmakers
Hi, I'm Cece, the owner and main shooter at Liyah Lauren Films LLC. Accompanied by my amazing husband, Ryan, we are a videography team based out of the Bay Area in California, focusing on weddings, elopements, and lifestyle videography.
Honestly, you'll rarely ever hear me talk about myself. I find it difficult actually. Its just never been my thing. I've always enjoyed doing things alone, which makes me appreciate having a husband who loves talking and meeting new people.
I value having a naturally introverted personality, because it makes spending quality time and building genuine friendships that much more meaningful. I believe that's why I enjoy storytelling through film so much. Storytelling through film has a way of speaking ones truth in volumes, and sometimes without even using words. I'm passionate about what I do. I've always liked to do things in an unconventional way and I've never stressed over keeping up with the latest trends.
One of our (my) ideal ways to spend quality time together is doing escape rooms. We (I) make it a point to look for new escape rooms to beat whenever we're traveling.
We also love camping in the Red Woods with family, and competing with each other in almost anything (especially in a workout).

Integrity, honesty, consistency, communication, and commitment is what you can expect from us. We do our best to live by these values in all we do. It keeps us accountable, balanced, and brings new perspectives which helps us keep a creative edge.
