Janae + Co Productions

  • Serves Ames, IA

Hi there! My name is Janae Erickson, I’m the owner and founder of Janae + Co Productions. I have carefully selected a team to help me accomplish the truly beautiful work that we produce. My favorite thing about my job is capturing special moments that won't ever happen again. It's such an amazing feeling every time I look back at everything I captured & how beautiful it turns out. I'm constantly learning & improving and it is so so so rewarding.

“We came upon Janae very unexpectedly. After our wedding photographer cancelled on us 18 days before our wedding, Janae reached out and got us booked with her right away. Having never met her, knowing next to nothing about her business, or anything, we were kind of nervous. Our impressions quickly changed. Janae was so kind, helpful, considerate, and overall just so pleasant to work with. She had asked us a few questions before hand to get to know us and our style, which was so amazing! We had never had a photographer do this and it showed how much she cared. We received MULTIPLE compliments about her the day of our wedding from our family and guests. She went all out, including laying in the grass at a nature conservation center to get us our “Pinterest perfect shot”. We received tons of the most beautiful pictures we had ever seen. We seriously couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our special day, especially so last minute. We highly recommend her, as she will definitely be our family photographer from here on out.”

We’re so grateful we chose Press Record Co for our wedding video! My husband and I had an intimate wedding where we didn't feel the need to spend thousands on a videographer as well as our photographer. We rented a camcorder from Press Record Co & created us a dreamy, beautiful video from the footage. The final result was heartfelt, high-quality, and captured the spirit of our day so perfectly—it truly brought tears to our eyes. It had a bit of each of our family members which meant so much to us. The whole team was kind, responsive, and clearly passionate about what they do. Thank you for helping us preserve such a special memory. Highly recommend to any couple looking for a reliable and caring (and budget friendly compared to a videographer) video service!

To keep things simple, I offer everything in one simple affordable package. I'm there all day long and I wanna be there to capture every single moment. You'll have your videos in three weeks or less.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Britt as our videographer was honestly one of the best decisions we made during wedding planning. I was a bridesmaid a wedding that Britt shot a year before my wedding, so I’ve had the pleasure of working with him as both a bridesmaid and Bride. He is honestly such a breath of fresh air to have around! He is so kind and truly makes everyone around him and in front of the camera feel so good. He also captured the most special moments of the day - the videos he put together are truly incredible. I can’t believe some of the moments he captured during my wedding day, there are some moments in our video that I truly didn’t even know he was around! Our highlight film also tells the perfect story of our day and my husband and I literally can’t stop watching it. He also made a video for our ceremony, a video for our speeches, a video teaser, and even one we can share on tiktok! How fun! I could not be more please with all the work he put in to our wedding day and into creating the most gorgeous videos. If you haven’t already, absolutely hire Britt to capture your big day!!! I promise you won’t regret it!!!

Wedding Weekender is redefining wedding video with a more authentic, accessible way to capture your celebration. We send camcorders for your friends and family to film candid moments across your wedding weekend — from getting ready to the dance floor and everything in between. Afterward, our editing team shapes that footage into a thoughtful, nostalgic wedding video that feels true to your celebrations. We believe meaningful wedding video should feel personal, accessible, and rooted in real moments.

We had the best experience with Wedding Weekender! It was worth every penny. They made every step of the process easy, the equipment itself was easy to use, and everybody had a blast at the wedding filming and being filmed. We are over the moon with how the video editing turned out as well! I am just amazed at how the WW team took only a couple of sentences of direction/suggestions and created such a beautiful, fun video that absolutely captured the vibe of the wedding day and the vibe of our relationship. I could watch it over and over again (and I do). BOOK THEM!!!!!

Paul Hairston is an award winning and nation-wide wedding, documentary and commercial filmmaker for over 13 years. He loves anything and everything about human storytelling and creating impact through the medium of film. He strives to capture your special day with earnestness, trust and top shelf visuals. Throughout his career he has worked to blend vérité filmmaking with a production value those stories and emotions deserve, while never getting in your way. Providing painterly and elegant coverage with an unobtrusive but attentive presence that documents every unique detail is Paul’s goal with every film.

We had such an excellent experience with Paul on our wedding day! He was so communicative leading up to the day, as well as the actual wedding day. He was friendly, professional, punctual and worked so well alongside our photographer for the day, filming all of the lovely moments we may have otherwise missed (dance floor, cocktail hour, etc). He also filmed our first look, which was one of the moments that I most wanted to have on film, and made it such a fun experience. We watch our video every year on our wedding anniversary (it's been almost 13 years!), and we look back so fondly on that day because of the sweet moments that Paul captured - and have also shown it to our kids, who love to watch it over and over again. We highly recommend Paul to also capture your wedding day!
