OUR FULL STORY (If you're like, really into reading...You little researcher, you...we love you already!)

It all starts with a crazy idea--ours was to create wedding videos that broke away from the norm.

We wanted to challenge the traditionally sappy and overly-sentimental *cue the theme song from Twilight*, stereotypical wedding video by turning it into something that actually feels like the couple and their dynamic in the video. A video that decades after “I Do,” you'll still burst into happy tears every time those opening scenes hit.

Two years into launching our company, we found our work spilling outside the wedding industry. We started collaborating with brands and businesses, ultimately allowing us to gain momentum in ways that would allow Nest Productions to expand its services and become Ruby Riot Creatives: a content marketing firm that helps awesome businesses, causes and brands build momentum online and share their story with the world.

As Ruby Riot Creatives we offer marketing strategies, digital content creation (think: blog articles that pack a serious SEO punch), and communication services... on top of our ultra cool photography + videography services, of course.

Why the name Ruby Riot Creatives? The ruby is a known symbol of devotion, faithfulness and bliss to couples across all cultures--which harks back to our roots in the wedding industry. The vibrant color of the ruby also symbolizes our passion for creativity and our goal of bringing happiness to our clients through everything we do.

And the riot? Well, we think every day should be approached as an absolute celebration of life. Some might say we're a bit of a riot to work with.

Contact us through heyruby@rubyriotcreatives.com or give us a ring at 843-212-6358. We're always down to talk over fried chicken and mojitos. We promise you, it's going to be one big riot.

We hired Nest Productions to shoot a 3 minute promo video for our company and she gave us a great video we could use in our marketing. She helped give our brand the image we needed and delivered it in a timely manner and was great with communicating with us. Always on time, always smiling. Thank you Shelby for your hard work. -Tom and Melissa

Shelby does amazing work with videography! I could not believe how well she was able to capture all the important moments of my wedding (and then some) without my even noticing. I was so surprised once I saw all of the footage she had and how she somehow was able to skillfully capture these candid memories. Something that is so priceless! I am so happy that I had Shelby do my videography. I studied video production as part of my degree and understand the time and devotion it takes to make good video (and the amount of shots you have to go through and edit). Having this as my background I would not have settled for an average videographer. Shelby exceeded my expectations! Not only does she do great filming and editing but she is very easy to work with and strives to tailor her work to your imagination and capture those moments that are most important to you.

Ruby delivers the dream

Ruby and her team are magic. They were so easy to work with, made us feel comfortable and created a video that captured our entire day. They have an incredible eye for details and edits that beautifully highlight not only the moments, but also feelings. My husband and I are so grateful we found such pros that we could trust entirely. They delivered a dream. Thank you guys— hope to work with you and Jessie on future projects!

A gift to love stories everywhere

I didn’t want a wedding video. I wanted a wedding documentary. Shelby and the Ruby Riot team delivered…and then some. I’ve spent 15 years in television news telling stories across the country. I now produce documentaries and host a TV show. I know good visual storytelling. In fact, I’m a bit of a quality snob. Now, imagine being a fellow-industry professional trying to find someone to capture the most important day of your life in a way that meets these standards. I interviewed 26 wedding videographers. I watched more wedding video samples than I ever thought possible! Every single one looked the same. Generic. Formulaic. A copy and paste from the wedding before with different main characters. Where are the natural sounds, I thought? Where are the moments? The action? The STORY? Anyone can take some video and slap together a series of shots. It takes an absolute artist to put together a personalized storyline. Shelby Ring captured OUR love story with honesty, tact, and creativity. She was a gift to have by my side on my wedding day. Stripping down naked to get into my dress in front of her didn’t even seem weird even though I had never actually met her ahead of time! Her team captured moments I never even knew they witnessed. They were everywhere and I never noticed in the best way. She navigated the delicate emotions that accompanied my wedding with grace. My dad died unexpectedly three months before my wedding. Though our wedding was full of love, joy, and happiness, it was laced with gut wrenching sadness. She captured it all in a way I can only describe as genius. How lucky we are to have Ruby Riot Creatives telling love stories. Thank you for the heart you put in to every single one.

Incredible

Shelby/ruby riot was one of our best hires on our wedding day. We got married in Charleston in April- we were a destination couple from Boston. From the very first interaction with shelby, she asked so many detailed questions which helped her craft our wedding video to perfection. She is a very talent person, and our wedding video will be something we will watch to relive the day over and over again. One thing I also love about RR is the uniqueness of the moments that were captured. As their Moto stands- they aren’t a generic/ regular wedding film company. There is genuine artistic energy and passion behind the work… which for Charleston (being the most beautiful and artistic place in the US..) was just so fitting and perfect. BOOK RUBY RIOT NOW…!!!! You will not regret this investment on your wedding day 💗

Best Decision EVER!

I have to begin by telling you that securing a Videographer for our daughter's wedding was not even on the list of "to do's". It was literally at the very end of the checklist and we were running out of steam and so much money had already been spent. We decided to call Shelby with a few weeks left until the big day to just have a quick conversation of "maybe" . We fell in LOVE with her after 2 mins on the phone with her!!
We just connected and knew that her vision matched ours exactly!!
She provided pricing and contract quickly. She responded with urgency to questions we had. She was the ultimate professional!! And so stylish as well!!! I am truly blown away at the product she provided us!! It is my MOST treasured keepsake from the Wedding! One you will not regret!! Of all the money spent on weddings this should absolutely be put at the top of the list of MUST do's!!! I love that it is deliverable to my phone, flash drive and you tube link for our friends and family! Oh, and the drone footage was the icing on the cake! She thought of absolutely everything!!! Thank you Shelby for preserving this day for us!!

I don't even know where to start, other than YES you need a videographer and it needs to be Nest Productions! I will be honest and say I didn't start looking for videographers until about 4 months before the wedding because I saw it as a "nice to have" rather than a necessity (just photos) Hiring Shelby was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! She caught SO many moments that my photographer did not, and while the photos are beautiful there is nothing like having a video and truly reliving the day. The only regret I have is not hiring her for a longer time period!

I was totally one of those people who said "when am I ever just going to sit and watch my wedding video?" Well we have had the full feature, teaser, speeches, social clips and even raw footage for over a month now, and I will tell you that I find myself just watching them and smiling so big at least once a week. It has been so wonderful to share our wedding with family and friends who were not able to be there. I also highly recommend getting the raw footage too - she just captures all of these things you literally never get to see being the bride and groom!

Not only did Shelby work with us on customizing a package that fit our needs, she completely goes above and beyond when it comes to her services during and after the wedding. You can truly tell that Shelby 200% loves what she does - her passion comes through in every single way of her work and in her attitude on your wedding day. She noticed so many details little details like who my matron of honor's parents were to make sure she got them on video during her speech. She truly took an interest in us as a couple, as well as our family, friends and entire bridal party. I really feel like I gained a friend in Shelby. Our parents, guests and vendors all loved her!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
