Nice to meet you. I’m Mayumi.

I’m a Yamhill County, Oregon based videographer.
My mission is to capture the indescribable love between parents and children through heartful videos.

I was born and raised in Japan and later moved to the U.S.  I’m a mom to a young boy, and when I’m not behind the camera, I love cooking, collecting beautiful ceramics, and making matcha. I’m also a food photographer with a small studio in my home.

After my son was born, I started making family films because I wanted to capture the deep love I have for him. More than anything, I wanted him to always know—when he’s older and even when I’m gone—that he was raised with so much love.

I’m so happy to say that I’m a family filmmaker! I’ve invested my time and resources into learning from talented family filmmakers, and I pour my heart into every film I create. Capturing the fleeting, everyday moments that mean the most and turning them into meaningful, story-driven experiences to bring you back to the moments that matter most—this is what I love to do❤️

If you're ready to have your family story captured on film, please contact me so we can connect!

Based in Dundee Hills, OR | Serving the Willamette Valley including Portland, Salem, Newberg, Dundee, Dayton and McMinnville.

Why Family Vine Films?

  • I will wrap your love and create a gift for your future kids

    Give your children a gift that lasts a lifetime. My films are crafted with their perspective in mind, ensuring that as they grow up and rewatch their film, they’ll see the love that surrounded them throughout their childhood. It’s a time capsule of the love and care you pour into them every day.

  • I preserve your Memories Beyond the digital Clutter

    While phone videos capture moments, they often lead to digital clutter and miss the full story. I create lasting films that showcase your family’s unique story, created by the whole family, including parents. Easy to watch, share, and treasure for years to come.

  • I will capture not only what your life looks like, but also what it feels like

    My films are not just about what people do, but about how they feel in those moments. I bring that feeling to life visually. I emphasize emotional connection by capturing reactions, not just actions.

  • My session is great for photo haters

    My sessions are relaxed and simple. I take a documentary approach and there’s no pressure to perform. I don’t direct or pose you. Instead, I film your family as you are, capturing the moments that make your family your family.

  • I learned from the best

    I’ve invested my time and resources into learning from talented family filmmakers, and I pour my heart into every film I create.

  • I use a professional video camera

    I use the Sony A7S III, a professional-level camera trusted by filmmakers and industry professionals. This camera is even used in high-end productions and meets industry standards for professional filmmaking, ensuring that every family film I create is of the highest quality.
