Film and photography, planned together from the start.
A BODY OF WORK THAT BELONGS TOGETHER
Based in Napa Valley and Sonoma County—working throughout California and beyond.
Wildly Simple Productions is a client-direct film and photography studio for premium food, agriculture, wine, hospitality, and other place-based brands.
We work on location, staying close to the people, weather, and details that give a place its character. Motion and stills are planned together and captured in the same window, with senior makers leading every project from first conversation through delivery.
The result is a visual body of work that holds together across campaigns, releases, and seasons—and gets more useful each time we return.

A selection of brand films, short-form editorial, photography, and seasonal visual libraries created for food, agriculture, wine, hospitality, and other place-based brands.
FEATURED STORIES
CAPTURED IN SEASON
Every season leaves something behind. A winemaker’s hands at the end of harvest. Steam rising from a barrel. The quiet after the last table. Details that give a place its character—and disappear if no one is there to notice.
We think about gathering footage the way a chef thinks about ingredients. Some things exist for a short window. Being there is the whole job.
We work with food, agriculture, wine, and hospitality brands to build seasonal visual libraries over time, giving their teams an honest view of the people, places, and work behind the brand.
WHAT WE MAKE
Our work spans brand films, short-form editorial, photography, and seasonal visual libraries for food, agriculture, wine, hospitality, and other place-based brands.
Every production is built on location, shaped around real people and places, and planned as part of a larger body of work—so the films, photographs, and footage can support the brand across campaigns, releases, and seasons.
-
Brand films are foundational pieces that define how a brand sounds and looks on screen.
Built through narrative development, on-location production, and disciplined post, these films bring story, pacing, and tone fully into focus. From there, the same production can support photography, short-form editorial pieces, campaign cutdowns, and seasonal content libraries.
-
Focused story pieces built for social, web, email, and campaign use.
These are not cutdowns or filler posts. They are standalone editorial films shaped around a single idea, voice, place, process, or moment.
Created from new production, existing interviews, archival footage, written narration, or a larger visual library, each piece is designed to feel connected to the brand while giving the story more places to live.
-
On-location stills galleries for wine, food, hospitality, agriculture, and lifestyle brands.
Our photography is built around real places, real people, and the details that give a brand its texture: hands at work, seasonal shifts, product moments, hospitality scenes, vineyard and farm landscapes, and the quiet in-between frames that often carry the most feeling.
Captured alongside motion or as a standalone project, each gallery is created to support web, social, press, campaigns, trade materials, email, and long-term brand storytelling.
-
A Seasonal Visual Library is built around the way your year unfolds. We return across meaningful seasons—harvest, new releases, the quiet months, the height of service—capturing motion and stills together, on location, in the same window. Each visit adds to one organized body of work your team can draw from across campaigns, websites, social, email, press, and trade. Because the same two senior makers return, access deepens, the visual language holds, and each production strengthens the next.
• Motion and stills planned and captured together
• A growing archive organized for campaigns, web, social, email, press, and trade
