Silas Hofer
CO-FOUNDER | PHOTOGRAPHER | VIDEOGRAPHER
Hey, I’m Silas!
I’ve been in the photography and videography business for over 10 years, crafting visual stories and capturing once in a lifetime moments. I’ve had the fortune to film and edit over 30 wedding videos since 2019, each being a unique opportunity to blend creativity with craft.
In July 2023, I proudly launched Filmed by Silas, marking a new chapter in my journey. I am excited to continue honing my photography and videography skills, and my digital creativity in my freelance opportunities.
Whether I’m behind the lens for weddings, promotional films, family portraits or professional headshots, I bring a personal touch to every project. I would love to hear from you about your vision, and I am always up to a challenge!
