Peyton Wilson tells stories that simply ache to be told. A California native, Wilson has helmed poignant campaigns for Ford, Dove, Buick, HP, and many more. Her recent film for the Nature Conservancy serves as her “love letter to Earth,” captured in the midst of the worst California wildfires in history. Soulfully narrated by Ewan McGregor, the film – like everything she does – is extremely close to her heart, as she’s served on the Leadership Council for years.  For Dove’s "Louisa & Rob," Wilson captured the 100% true love story between a real couple, earning features in AdWeek, PopSugar, and more. 

As the creator of the documentary series On Meaning, Wilson has traveled the globe with a heavily female crew in pursuit of answers to life’s big questions. Featured on Upworthy, the documentary series explores how people around the world find purpose and meaning in extraordinary circumstances. Following the story of two Navy fighter pilots, Wilson’s acclaimed fighter documentary feature, Speed and Angels was screened at the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum, and won Best Documentary at the San Luis Obispo Film Festival. Her documentary short, The Bronzer, also enjoyed a successful festival run and rave reviews.

No matter the project, there’s one common thread at the center of everything she touches. Heart.
