Meet the team

Made of a collective of seasoned filmmakers well-versed in every aspect of the industry, making films has always been our bread and butter. United by multicultural backgrounds and a passion for travel, we find ourselves naturally drawn to destination weddings worldwide. Whether it's a romantic Parisian affair in an opulent palace, a serene Provence wedding in a beautiful garden with a charming chateau, or a wedding in Italy framed by breathtaking natural landscapes, our goal remains the same: crafting films that hold profound meaning for our couples. These films become enduring companions throughout life, offering solace in every moment and serving as a testament for both future and past generations.

Bonjour, I’m Jean (John), the lead videographer at 3 Petits Points. A French native with Asian heritage, my filmmaking journey began at NYU, though my passion was ignited at an early age by the iconic film: ET. I was amazed by how the power of storytelling could make me care so much about a fictional character.

My life as a wedding videographer started in Italy when I filmed a friend's wedding as a gift. The praise and love I received surprised me so much and gave such a feeling of satisfaction that 3 Petits Points was born.

Nostalgic by nature, I understand the value of moments gone. I’ve always kept items to mark moments in my life - letters exchanged in high school, drawings from kindergarten, milk teeth (I even have a piece of my umbilical cord :-P). Although none these souvenirs gave me barely any recollection at all, they hold a special place in me.

Making wedding films has been a bridge linking my love for storytelling and my desire to create accurate keepsakes of the past. Yet, it truly resonates with me when I witness the gleam in my couples' eyes as they watch their Same Day Edit (SDE), or when I receive messages from previous couples in the viewing of their film, with their children.

Our films don't mark the end of a wedding; rather, they signify the commencement—an ellipsis, three little dots: 3 Petits Points.
