About Spartan Productions

We make sure what matters isn’t missed.

Purpose-driven people, and their most important moments, often get lost in the noise. We exist to make sure that doesn’t happen to you.

Your story deserves
to be seen.

You have a mission worth sharing and moments worth keeping. We help people see, hear, and feel what matters to you—multiplying missions and capturing moments through film and photography.

The people behind the lens.

A personal approach, with care for your story from the first conversation to the finished work.

Josh and Kelsey Stanley together

Josh Stanley

Founder & owner

Josh began creating video on staff at his local church, where he saw how stories help people connect with a mission and find their place in it. Spartan Productions takes its name from his MMA nickname, “The Spartan”—a nod to the tenacity he brings to the work.

Today, he owns and leads Spartan Productions, with a hands-on role in creative direction and production. He leads the Mission side, working with you to shape your ideas into a message people can see, hear, and feel.

Away from the camera, you’ll often find him at Mayhem MMA or spending time with Kelsey and their three kids.

Kelsey Stanley

Lead, Moments

Kelsey first stepped behind the camera as a second shooter at weddings with her sister, before she and Josh were married. When they started Spartan Productions, she dove back into the work.

Today, she leads Moments, the wedding and milestones side of Spartan Productions. She has a gift for putting people at ease and catching the small things everyone else misses—the expressions, connections, and little details that make your memories yours.

She’s also a mom of three, sharing life and the business with Josh. See Moments

What matters in our work.

The beliefs behind the care we bring to your story.

Mission first

What matters to you gives the work its direction. We shape the creative choices around your purpose, so the message stays at the center.

Your voice, amplified

Your story should still feel like yours. We bring our craft to your perspective, helping the message connect with more of the people you want to reach.

People before projects

You deserve to feel heard. We listen to what matters to you, make room for questions, and treat the people in your story with care.

Excellence in the details

Your mission is too important for mediocrity. What you share represents you, so we bring high standards and care to the details that help your story look, sound, and feel right.
