katie + dan: Cape Cod wedding videography

I traveled to Cape Cod for Katie and Dan's wedding and had a great time. It was a perfect wedding for a perfect couple. Prep began with Updo's by Ann on hair and Ligia with make up. Once again I had the pleasure of working with Leah Haydock on photography... so fun to work with and her photographs are amazing! Both ceremony and reception were held at The Ridge Club. Startdust the band kept everyone moving throughout the night. For their montage below, I experimented with something different in using audio from their ceremony mixed in- I think it will be a new editing style moving forward (cinematic) that gives more of a movie trailer feel.

enjoy!

danielle + jason: Scranton, Pa wedding videography

Danielle and Jason got married at the Montdale Country Club. The couple had planned a beautiful outdoor ceremony with lake in the background. However, a few minutes before the ceremony mother nature had a different plan so we had to put plan B (under the patio) into effect, and then plan C in the gazebo, why not a combo of B & C (always good to have a back up plan). In the end it turned out great with the couple surrounded by wedding party shielded from the elements and guests overlooking from the patio. And just as the bride was safe undercover...the sun came out. The ceremony was followed by pictures on the property before entering the ballroom for the reception were everyone had a blast!

claire + edward- Boston, Ma wedding videography

For New Years Eve I traveled to Boston for the wedding of Claire and Eddy. What a great way to bring in 2011. Even though the city was covered with some snow, temps were in the 50s which is obviously almost unheard of for New England in December. Preparation started at Claires house, then it was off to St. Gregory's Church to meet up with Eddy. The evening ended with a New Years eve style reception and countdown to 2011. Dj Peter Accolla played the tunes of the night. Photography was by Bob Pattision who was great fun to work with.

A little break from weddings... Gazella Performance and Wellness Studio in Skaneateles, Ny needed a promo video for their website so it was a perfect opportunity to work on something different.
