A family-owned St. Augustine studio built on cinematic artistry, military-grade discipline, and 30 years of technical leadership.
Chase is the creative heartbeat of the studio and your primary point of contact. With a background in the Screen Actors Guild, he treats every wedding as a major motion picture rather than a standard event.
Chase manages the entire technical ecosystem—from operating the Netflix-approved DJI Ronin 4D 6K during your St. Augustine ceremony, to executing the final DaVinci Resolve color grade of your cinematic legacy.
Parks provides the essential documentary coverage that completes our films. As an FAA Part 107 Certified Pilot, he operates the DJI Air 3s and the agile DJI Avata 2 POV drone to capture dynamic, high-bitrate 4K aerials of Northeast Florida's most stunning venues.
On the ground, Parks is a master of multi-camera operations. He seamlessly maneuvers the newly acquired Black Magic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro—selected specifically for its unique ability to capture breathtaking cinematic footage. Simultaneously, he manages our Sony FX3 and Sony FX30 cinema cameras on professional tripods, ensuring your story is told flawlessly from every perspective while Chase handles the tracking shots.
The operational foundation of Dela Cruz Productions is built on a lifetime of high-stakes precision. A 4-year Air Force Veteran and a former BMW and MINI Shop Foreman for over 30 years, Eldridge brings a level of professional rigor rarely found in the creative industry.
Eldridge oversees the studio’s administrative infrastructure, client contracts, and financial strategy. His military background and three decades of leading high-performance automotive teams through complex mechanical diagnostics and quality assurance workflows ensure that the business operations are handled with absolute discipline, precision, and reliability.
Your film will be shot by our core family team. Chase directs and operates as your lead cinematographer with the DJI Ronin 4D 6K, while Parks manages secondary multi-camera cinema angles and FAA Part 107 drone flights. We never outsource your wedding day to independent contractors.
Our studio blends Screen Actors Guild storytelling intuition with military-grade operational discipline and automotive quality assurance workflows. This ensures artistic, Hollywood-caliber visuals paired with absolute reliability and punctuality.
From the first inquiry to the delivery of your final 6K film, you communicate directly with the artists behind the camera. Let's discuss your date.
