Meet The Founder

I’m Borja Tolay — filmmaker, creative director, and founder of Tolay Productions. I built this company with a passion for visual storytelling and a drive to create films that are not only cinematic but emotionally resonant.

From weddings and branded content to live events and creative campaigns, I’ve worked on a wide range of projects that require both technical skill and artistic direction. While I often take the lead on filming and editing, I also collaborate with a trusted team of videographers for larger productions or multi camera shoots. Whether it’s a solo project or a full crew, I oversee every detail to ensure the final product reflects the bold, polished look that defines Tolay Productions.

Every story deserves to be told with intention and style, and that’s exactly what I bring to the table.

Kind Words

As a marketing agency on Martha’s Vineyard, we’ve had the pleasure of partnering with Borja on several local client projects, and the feedback has been outstanding every time. His attention to detail, professionalism, and ability to capture the spirit of each event are unmatched.

Clients consistently tell us how easy and enjoyable he is to work with, and the final videos always exceed expectations. We’re grateful to have him as a trusted referral partner and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding or event videographer on the island.

I just want to say Borja was the best videographer we could have chosen for our wedding (September 2025). He was incredibly accommodating and worked with us to create a very customized package that fit exactly what we wanted.

We received our videos within the timeframe he promised, and we were honestly amazed at how beautiful everything turned out. The quality, the editing, the music selection, and the way he captured the emotions of the day were beyond our expectations. He managed to document so many special moments without ever feeling intrusive.

I recommend him 100%, especially in Martha’s Vineyard where it can be hard to find genuine vendors. He made the whole process feel easy and stress free, and we will treasure these videos forever. We are so grateful we found him.

We had the pleasure of working with Borjay Tolay and Tolay Productions to capture video content for Visit Martha’s Vineyard during our two cornerstone JAWS 50th Anniversary events. These celebrations—produced in partnership with Alamo Drafthouse, Discovery Channel, National Geographic, and Universal—were incredibly important to our organization and community, and Borjay’s team exceeded every expectation. Borjay has a remarkable ability to capture both the energy of a moment and the emotion behind it. His footage showcased not only the scale of these events but also the spirit of the island, our guests, and the story we were celebrating. The final videos were cinematic, engaging, and beautifully edited—exactly what we needed to showcase Martha’s Vineyard on a national stage. Tolay Productions was professional, responsive, and a true partner throughout the process. Borjay and his team worked seamlessly with our partners, navigated complex event logistics, and ensured every highlight was documented with creativity and care. We are deeply grateful for their work and highly recommend Tolay Productions to anyone looking for a video production company that can bring stories to life with artistry and professionalism.

Working with Borja at Tolay Productions as a videographer on events here on Martha’s Vineyard has been an absolute pleasure. His attention to detail and steady focus shine through in every project; he never misses a moment. Beyond his technical skill, Borja is incredibly personable and easy to work with, making the entire process seamless and enjoyable.

He has a natural talent for capturing the true essence of an event, from the big moments to the subtle details that make them special. We’d recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a wedding or event photographer/videographer, you’ll be in excellent hands.

Borja truly exceeded our expectations across the board! He showed up bright and early for what was supposed to be a casual swim on a sunny Saturday morning but instead ended up being a full-on nor’easter (wind whipping & raising sideways), which didn’t stop him. He braved the elements with enthusiasm and minimal instruction and captured all of our special moments beautifully. We were blown away by the quality of the drone footage and were impressed with Borja’s versatility. In terms of the final product, we love our video with the aerial shots of our venue and surrounding water, the voiceovers from the ceremony, and the seamless transitions; we love our video and have already watched it dozens of times and it fills us with all the happy memories of our special day!

Borja did a great job with all his work. He captured a lot of areas we never would have seen if it wasn’t for him. His video story that he made at the end was incredible and was one of our favorite parts for keeping our memories from our wedding.
