Who we are
Abide Media Firm is owned by Kinsley Arkesteyn and Slade Salisbury, two creatives with a shared passion for storytelling through visual media. Together, we believe that every brand, every couple, and every individual has a unique story worth telling—and our mission is to help bring those stories to life in the most authentic way possible.
Kinsley holds a Bachelor’s degree in Digital Marketing with a minor in Sports Management from Liberty University and is currently pursuing her Master’s in Social Media Management. With years of hands-on experience, she has managed social media and branding for a wide range of companies, including Liberty Hockey, Drybar, and Deltaville Tap & Raw Bar. Her eye for strategy and creativity allows her to transform ideas into content that resonates and builds strong connections between brands and their audiences.
Slade, originally from Richmond, VA, spent the last three years living in Maui, Hawaii, where he worked full-time as a videographer. Specializing in 4K footage and content creation, he has collaborated with notable companies such as Shaka Bar, Hope Chapel, and The Ritz-Carlton. Beyond short-form content, Slade also has extensive experience producing full-length documentaries, and he has a strong passion for capturing weddings through cinematic videography that feels both timeless and personal.
Together, we combined our strengths to launch Abide Media Firm—a company built on creativity, authenticity, and excellence. From photography and videography to branding, marketing, and social media management, our services are designed to help both businesses and individuals stand out. Whether it’s elevating a brand, capturing life’s most important milestones, or creating content that inspires, we are here to serve.
While Richmond, VA is home, our work takes us wherever stories need to be told—even across the world. Let’s work together to make your story or brand stand out in a way that is true to who you are.
