Let's talk about your project →Brand films, product launches, company culture docs, social content. Video that makes your business look like it means business — and actually converts.
See Brand Work →Concerts, fundraisers, corporate gatherings, festivals. Recap films and social clips that make people wish they were there — and make sponsors want to return.
See Event Work →Cinematic wedding films for people who actually want to watch their video again. No templates. No generic music. Just your day, made into something that lasts.
See Wedding Work →Smoke Free Productions is a video studio run by Jake Bensulock in Asheville, NC. We're small on purpose. Every project gets real attention, not a template and a timeline.
We make brand films for businesses that want video working as hard as they do. We shoot events that deserve to be remembered. And we make wedding films for couples who actually want to watch their video again — not skip through it.
Small crew. No fluff. Based in Asheville, available everywhere.
We do three things, and we do them well.
Your best customers buy with emotion and justify with logic. A cinematic brand film gives them both — conversion-driven video that builds trust and turns first-time viewers into loyal clients.
Single-day shoot • Full edit • Delivered in 2 weeksConcerts, product launches, corporate gatherings, fundraisers, festivals. Video recap films and photo coverage billed by the hour, including editing time. You get a full estimate before you book, not after.
Video • Photo • Recap films • Social clipsNeed a skilled camera operator for your next production? Jake is available for freelance hire as a second shooter, camera operator, or production partner on commercial and wedding projects across Asheville and western North Carolina.
Day rates • Second shooter • Camera operator • Weddings • CommercialWe just launched our wedding division — and we're deliberately keeping it small. We're selectively booking a handful of 2026 and 2027 weddings while we build our portfolio under this brand. That means introductory rates, a filmmaker who will treat your day like a brand film, and more attention than you'd get from a studio with 40 dates on the calendar. If you're the kind of couple who cares more about the film than the formulas, let's talk.
Full day coverage • Highlight film • Full ceremony cut • Delivered in 8 weeks"Working with Smoke Free Productions was a pleasure. Whether you need help implementing your own vision, or you are starting from zero, Jake and his team have what you need!"
"I have hired Jake with Smoke Free Productions for multiple wedding days as my second shooter. The attention to detail that he has, and true love for his craft are special!"
Tell us what you're trying to do, who you're trying to reach, and why it matters. Most projects get clearer in the first 15 minutes.
Shot list, locations, crew, timeline — all locked before we touch a camera. No surprises on set.
Small crew. No wasted time. We know exactly what we're there to get — and we get it.
Brand films in 2 weeks. Wedding films in 8 weeks. Full edit, color, audio mix. On time, every time.
Every wedding is different, so we price each project based on coverage time, travel, and deliverables. Most Asheville wedding videography packages start around $2,000 and go up from there depending on what you need. Reach out and we will send you a full breakdown with no pressure.
Yes. We are based in Asheville but regularly film weddings throughout western North Carolina, the greater Southeast, and destination weddings further afield. Travel fees apply outside a certain radius -- just ask and we will be upfront about it.
Most highlight films are delivered within 6 to 8 weeks of your wedding date. Full ceremony cuts and longer edits may take a little longer. We will give you a clear timeline before we start and keep you updated throughout.
A highlight film is a cinematic 3 to 6 minute edit set to music -- the one you will watch on anniversaries and share with family. A full-length film captures the entire ceremony and key moments with full audio. Most couples get both. We include both in our standard wedding packages.
Absolutely. We work with you to choose music that fits the feel of your day. We use properly licensed tracks so your film will never get muted or blocked on social media.
All the time. We are experienced at working alongside photographers and other vendors without getting in each other's way. If you already have a photographer booked, let us know and we will coordinate in advance to make sure both teams get what they need.
Yes. Brand films are one of our core services. We work with restaurants, retail brands, home service companies, and creatives across western NC to produce cinematic films that build trust and drive real results. Most brand film projects start at $2,000 and are delivered within two weeks of the shoot.
Absolutely. A lot of our couples are also business owners, and we love working with people on both sides. Whether you need a wedding film or a brand film for your company, the approach is the same - real storytelling, sharp craft, and video that actually gets used.
The best brand films do one thing: they make the viewer feel something before they think about price. A good brand film shows who you are, what you do differently, and why it matters — in under two minutes. We write a simple creative brief before every shoot so we know exactly what story we're telling before we touch a camera. Most clients see an immediate difference in how new customers talk about them after watching the film.
From first call to final delivery, most brand film projects take two to three weeks. That includes a pre-production call, a single shoot day, and a full post-production pass — edit, color grade, and audio mix. We move fast because we plan everything in advance. Rush turnarounds are available if you need it sooner.
Yes. Corporate event coverage is one of our most common requests — product launches, annual meetings, team retreats, fundraiser galas. We capture the highlights as they happen, then turn them into a polished recap film and short social clips you can use immediately. Everything is billed hourly with editing included, so there are no surprises on the invoice.
We're based in Asheville and regularly shoot weddings throughout the region — the Blue Ridge Parkway, Biltmore Estate, Black Mountain, Weaverville, Brevard, Hendersonville, and venues deep in the mountains. No travel fee within about 60 miles of Asheville. Beyond that, we'll quote travel transparently and without surprises. We also take destination weddings when the date works.
Yes. We love working with local Asheville businesses and we're familiar with the market. If you're based in Asheville or western NC, mention it when you reach out — we can often avoid any travel costs entirely and structure a package that makes sense for where you are. We've worked with restaurants, contractors, real estate agents, retailers, and nonprofits across the region.
No commitment. Just a conversation.
Thanks - we'll be in touch soon.
