Natalie + Robert | a double feature - love story + same day edit

I was really excited for Natalie and Rob's wedding for quite some time. The story of a couple and their wedding carries well beyond the wedding day itself. I filmed a love story for Natalie and Rob on Cape Cod a couple months back with the assistance of my amazing ladyfriend Amanda... who did a wonderful job and some of her shots are in the film. The love story addition to the same day edit is a really awesome way to share your story with your guests, and the same day edit (which we typically keep as a surprise for the guests) never fails to amaze the couple and the guests. I've been anxious to show their love story film, we got really lucky with a perfect day to shoot this one. :)

Natalie and Rob were married in an absolutley beautiful Transfiguration Greek Orthodox Church in Lowell with their reception at the beautiful ballroom at Tewksbury Country Club. They are one of those couples that when you meet they just seem like the perfect fit. They were so fun to work with and we even attended their rehearsal, which we just had to tie into the same day edit!

I'm pretty sure Natalie and Rob weren't even going to have video coverage of their wedding until they stumbled across our work. Natalie actually requested a Hans Zimmer masterpiece from the soundtrack to "The Holiday" which may sound familiar if you dig back into the archives a bit. It turned out to be a perfect fit and I am sure glad we had the opportunity to be part of their awesome wedding day. Enjoy the double feature!

Jess + Darryl | save the date

A few weeks back I met up with Jess and Darryl at the Old Stone Church in West Boylston. I shot a save the date for them alongside their photographer, Rick Bern. We will be filming their wedding in September at The Colonial Hotel in Gardner.

Here is their story...

Caitlyn + Nick | a surprise same day edit

We had an awesome time filming Cait and Nick's wedding on Sunday. Cait had expressed interest in a same day edit but they booked us for a feature film. When I met with them a week before the wedding I was thinking that their wedding was the perfect recipe for a great same day edit and they are such awesome people and had been so great to work with that I decided to surprise them with one.
the fine print: Please don't expect a surprise same day edit for your wedding too! I've only done this once before and it was our first same day edit. :)
The same day edit process starts early in the day but somehow Cait didn't expect it even as I was uploading and editing some clips in the same hotel suite earlier in the day. We played it during the band's break and the reaction was really awesome. Same day edits may be taking years off my life (just ask Kurt who has shot alongside me for most of them!) but the three or four minutes that the film plays for everyone on the big screen make it all worthwhile.

ceremony: St. John's church in Clinton, MA - An absolutely amazing church as you will see!

reception: Devens Common - A great venue in Devens, MA, and they got ready at the hotel next door earlier in the day.

photography: Scott Zuehlke Photography - Scott was really fun to work with and an incredibly talented artist. He certainly really enjoyed our style of cinematography which I certainly appreciate.

entertainment: World Premier Band from Boston - They are incredibly talented and were a ton of fun. They certainly kept the dance floor full until the end of the night and sounded great all night.
