Dan and Michelle’s Fonthill Castle Wedding Trailer

dancard2

Dan and Michelle were certainly one of my more unique clients this year. I often refer to them as the “Juno Couple” (keep reading, you’ll find out why). Dan, who is a graphic designer, seems to have a liking for comic books, super heroes, and transformers; as evidenced by the logo he designed for their wedding and his, shall we say, unusual custom vows. Check out their awesome invitations by clicking here. Michelle, not to be outdone by Dan, seems equally interested in the musical whims of the movie Juno since almost every song she suggested is on its soundtrack. Not only that, their first dance song was “All I Want Is You” by Barry Louis Polisar. I think my favorite line from that song is “If you were a castle, I’d be your moat.” Rather interesting, in my opinion, that their wedding was held at a castle. Connection? Unfortunately Fonthill Castle doesn’t have a moat but I digress.
For their trailer, I chose a song I’ve been wanting to use for quite some time. It’s a variation on a song I used a few years ago so it was familiar yet different at the same time. Dan, who is a fan of some scifi shows, might recognize it but I’m betting not. Anyways, enjoy their trailer below! And watch out for their Juno inspired wedding film in a few months!

Chesapeake Bay Hyatt, Florentino & Graca’s Wedding Trailer

I had the immense pleasure of shooting Florentino and Graca’s wedding this past Saturday at the Chesapeake Bay Hyatt in Cambridge, Maryland. My shooter, Glen, and I arrived early and captured Graca and her bridesmaids getting their hair and make-up done in their hotel suite. Glen then went down the hall and captured Florentino waking up from his nap with his extraordinarily rowdy groomsmen! The ceremony was held outside on the lawn overlooking the marina and the river.  It was a beautiful day with a calm cool breeze making the weather that much more pleasant.

I also had the pleasure of working with the awesome photographer, Mark Gardner and his assistant, Erik Matey, at the wedding. There are a handful of photographers that I really enjoy working with and Mark is one of them! When everyone works together like a team, giving each other ideas, we really produce our best work!
I also worked with the team from Make My Day Events out of Rehoboth Beach, DE. Leanne and Casey helped keep me notified of when and where things were happening  which is always a huge stress relief.  I honestly think that any couple planning a big wedding absolutely needs to hire a planner. The time it saves you and the much lower stress levels are totally worth it!

Anyways, I wanted to share Florentio and Graca’s wedding trailer. They purchased the HD (High Definition) upgrade and will be receiving their wedding on Blu-Ray discs. In the mean time, you can view their trailer video in full HD glory by clicking here. I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I did making it!


Glen and Violet’s Same Day Edit

When Glen and Violet asked me to shoot their wedding in Southern New Jersey, I knew I had to put together the ultimate team to do it! I asked two fellow Top 25 wedding videographers to join me to make the video something really special. Maurice O”Carroll, Ireland’s #1 wedding videographer, and Chris Watson from Fort Worth, Texas flew in to help back me up for the day.

The wedding was great! Maurice and I started shooting bright and early at Energes Salon where Viloet and her bridal party were getting ready. Meanwhile, Chris Watson was covering the guys at Violet’s brother’s house. We all met at the church and shot one of the best ceremonies I’ve ever seen. Glen and Violet could barely hold back tears as they walked down the aisle the together for first time, married. Later the reception was help in the Crystal Manor at Masso’s where Judith Campbell of Cambell Studios did some amazing decor and lighting!

The highlight of the reception was when my Same Day Edit was shown on a huge 100″ screen during the reception for all to see. Glen and Violet were able to relive their entire day in just a few minutes while all of the guests watched in awe.

Below is the Same Day Edit I did for Glen and Violet. This is a great add-on that can be purchased at any time for your own wedding. Make sure to view the video in beautiful High Definition!

Mariah and Douglas’s Wedding Trailer

One of my most anticipated weddings of the year took place this past weekend in Chestertown, MD. Mariah and Doug hired me to film their wedding almost a year ago and I could hardly wait until their date arrived! Their wedding took place at the very cool Stepne Manor which used to be owned by Doug’s family. I had the pleasure of working with photographer extraordinaire, Mark Gardner and his very cute assistant Issy Schmid (Issy was actually one of the brides in my first Trash the Dress video). It’s always a blast working with Mark. He’s already posted a few pics from the wedding over on his blog so be sure to check them out! Anyways, I’ve been working on Mariah and Doug’s trailer for the last few days. I really feel this is one of the best shot weddings I’ve had in years. Everything was perfect. The weather, the sunlight, the decor, the people. A “perfect storm” of weddings if you will. Check out the trailer below and if you want to be really impressed, watch it in HD

Steve and Danielle - May 31st Trailer

I had the pleasure of shooting Steve and Danielle’s wedding this past weekend in Rehoboth Beach, DE. I’ve never been to Rehoboth before but when I got there I loved the small beach town atmosphere. I also was shooting with 1st class photographer, Mark Gardner. It’s always a great time shooting with him because he has so much energy. Check out his photos on his new blog. The beautiful flowers were provided by Bayberry Flowers and the Bride’s and Bridesmaid’s hair was done by Made Ya Look Salon. The reception was held at the members only and highly exclusive, Rehoboth Beach Country Club. What a great location! The main ball room was perfectly lit and the view of the ocean was incredible.

Below is the trailer I’ve put together for Steve and Danielle. Make sure to leave your comments!
