Janey & Mark's Arthouse Edit from the Four Seasons Santa Barbara
Oh how I love this edit! We were honored when Mary Jane asked us to film her wedding, and so excited about how it turned out. This video is amazing because of all the awesome footage we captured - namely the audio. I am a total sap and love emotional weddings - this one had really touching words during the ceremony and the toasts, and basically all throughout the day. As Jasmine* put it in her post, there were loads of tears and laughter, and then more tears and laughter! So without further delay.... enjoy!!
P.S. For best viewing, press play then immediately press pause. Let the video load most of the way before starting.
Gail & Nemo's Arthouse Edit from the Hyatt Huntington Beach
You may remember Gail & Nemo from an earlier post, but I'm so excited to share their Arthouse Edit! This wedding was spectacular because a) the couple was AWESOME, b) we had an awesome team to work with, c) the color palate was super unique, and d) there were some amazing cultural touches at this wedding! All in all it was pretty spectacular. The awesome team I was referring to consisted of wedding coordinator extraordinaire Michelle from Details Details, Sunny from White Lilac who did the decor, and Triplecord Photography who took the fabulous photos!
As promised, here is the OK! Magazine spread from Eric & Roselyn's wedding in Puerto Rico! These photos were exclusively taken by Aaron Delesie. We had a blast traveling with him and his wife Jen. We laughed... A LOT!! The wedding was also an amazing (but exhausting) experience! You can look forward to the video sometime early next year. But for now, enjoy!
Claudia & Gifford had a fabulous (and beautiful) wedding at Mountain Gate Country Club this past summer. Everything was gorgeous and their guests were a lot of fun! (they knew how to party!!) We always have a great time working at this venue, but especially with the fabulous Jim Kennedy. Check out their Arthouse Edit.
Well it's less than 24 hours before I leave for the Middle East but wanted to post this awesome film before the big trip! (And don't worry my Arthouse Platinum couples... I'm taking your edits with me to work on during the 18 hour flight!) Stay tuned to the blog and my facebook page for updates on the trip, etc. I'll also be posting Claudia & Gifford's Arthouse edit while I'm there as well as the OK! magazine spread from Roselyn & Eric's wedding. So much to do!
Anyway, I love this film... Erin did nothing but smile all day! They had a fabulous wedding at the Island Hotel coordinated by our friend and fantastic wedding coordinator Sharon Gall. I loved the colors and decor of this wedding... it was absolutely beautiful! Stephanie Kennedy took the photos and of course we had a great time working with her as usual. Congratulations Erin & Ryan!
IMPORTANT NOTE: I encoded this film at a much higher rate than normal because it creates a higher quality viewing experience and I wanted to see the difference. Please let the video load for about five minutes before viewing (press play then pause). What do you think... was the wait worth it?
I'm in the studio today even though we have a Saturday off for once just catching up on some stuff. I just grabbed the mail and was so touched to receive this nice thank you note from Claudine & David and thought I'd share it. Isn't this so sweet? I blogged their Arthouse Edit awhile back. You can view it by clicking here. Happy weekend!
Well it's been over a week since I've posted and I know you loyal blog readers are sick of my excuses!! We just got back from Puerto Rico yesterday where we filmed a killer wedding (more on that later this week) but right now it's time to blog about Roli & Adi's GEORGEOUS Indian wedding that took place at the Hyatt Long Beach. This event was a mix of Northern and Southern Indian traditions and (as you know if you've been following) I LOVE filming Indian weddings! There is so much culture and so much COLOR and this wedding did not disappoint! First of all, the day went off without a hitch because David Yusuf and his team were in charge. David's a very talented event designer and coordinator - check out the decor! And it was also fun to see Oscar who does the most amazing hair and makeup! He also gave me some good advice about my own very straight (do nothing) hair and said it was all my mom's fault because she gave me too many perms when i was young. ANYWAY, please enjoy their same day edit which was shown right before their grand entrance!
Well if you've been a blog stalker for the last few years you've noticed that every year about this time we introduce a new company photo taken by one of the OC's best. This is year is no different. We asked Jasmine Star to meet us in downtown Santa Ana to "git-r-done" and I am SO stoked about how these photos came out. Not only did we have a blast doing this with Jasmine, but it was also EASY! She made us feel so comfortable (and kind of like rock stars). I had my hair & makeup done by Design Visage - they are the ABSOLUTE BEST for weddings (and obviously other stuff too!). Anyway, here are some of the pics... but there are a few more on Jasmine's Blog so check them out. She rocks!!
Oh and if you didn't notice, our team has changed a bit! Let me introduce the awesome new team members: Jeff Young & Carolyn Templin. You'll see Jeff out a lot at weddings.. he's an awesome shooter & editor and just an all around great guy! Carolyn is super sweet and so efficient it makes me sick. She has helped us come to the point of basically no capture back-log in our editing dept! And of course you already know the super cool (and very super model like in these photos) Kyle Nalley, and then of course it's me and Alex. Love the shot that Jasmine got of just us :)
Sheridan & Bo's Arthouse Edit from the Four Seasons Santa Barbara
Ok, so the Marathon took a little break. I know. I am REALLY trying to post everyday... promise! Here's the deal. Our phone has been ringing off the hook the past couple of weeks... we've had loads of meetings with a some really cool couples. Last night I went through our 2009 Calendar and realized it is HALF FULL! What's thrilling is that it seems that people (in general) are starting to see what the value of having a great video is... a professional and cinematic one. One that documents the people that they love the most. Ahhhhh (sigh)... I love what I do!!
Anyway, here is Sheridan & Bo's Arthouse Edit. Love this couple! The fabulous coordinator was Rebecca of Imagine Weddings & Special Events. She helped put together a GORGEOUS event! And of course you can't go wrong at the Four Seasons in Santa Barbara... one of our very favorite venues. Alex worked alongside Elizabeth Messina who shot the photos. She's super creative and does fab work!! All in all, it was a superb event. Check out their Arthouse Edit:
