Holly and Darwin - The Langham Hotel in Pasadena California

These guys were such a sweet couple! Holly's mom is a producer for Disney, so I was extremely honored that they chose me to film their wedding day celebrations. Their day had so many personal touches...vows written by both Holly and Darwin had just about everyone in tears during the ceremony...members of the Bridal Party sang during the ceremony...and even the music chosen for their video soundtrack was written and performed by Darwin (and his awesome band) and two other groomsmen with their bands.

Special thanks to Victor Sizemore (VCS Photography) for giving me some still shots to incorporate in the video.

Here's a short highlight from their production.

Munjari and Vikas - Malibu

I love the traditions, symbolism, and colors that are used throughout the typical week long ceremonies that happen before the actual wedding day. We filmed the Sangeet party and the Mehendi ceremonies...all of which took place at Munjari's home. This wedding day included two ceremonies, one Hindu and one Sikh. The music and chanting during both ceremonies was amazing.

Their outdoor reception took place at the Mountain Gate Country Club with cocktails taking place on the green. Traditional Indian food was cooked on site, and dinner and dancing lasted well into the night.

Another Timelapse Clip

Here is another Timelapse Sequence of a ceremony and Reception from
Seantell and Michael's wedding at Rancho Las Lomas.

Seantell & Michael - Rancho Las Lomas

This couple had such an emotional day. Seantell was trying hard not to cry, even as we were doing pre-ceremony shots with her Mother and Grandmother.
Both the bride and groom were wiping away tears during their entire ceremony.

One of the cutest shots was the ring bearer walking down the aisle. He stopped at every row to show the ring on the pillow he was carrying!
Everyone laughed and laughed...just one more moment a bride would never see without her video!

The ceremony site was transformed into their outdoor reception while guests enjoyed cocktails up near the fountain.
This is a highlight clip from their day. Check out the Timelapse clip above to see the full transformation of their location.

Timelapse

Here is a sample of a feature we offer called a timelapse. We set-up a camera and record for the entire event. It's really cool to see your ceremony or reception site take shape over many hours. The clip below is from Natalie and Joseph's wedding where the ceremony site was turned into their reception site. We recorded for 12 hours and edited the timelapse below.

Natalie & Joseph - Regent Beverly Wilshire

This was an exquisite wedding! With 500 guests and one location, the hotel staff did an amazing job transforming the ballroom into the reception site after the ceremony was over. This took just 45 minutes while guests enjoyed the cocktail hour.

The day started early with both Natalie and Joseph getting ready with all their bridesmaids and groomsmen. We love filming this part of the day because there are always so many fun things happening, that both the Bride and Groom never get a chance to see.

We did a pre-ceremony photo/video session with the bride and groom, which started with shots of them driving down Beverly Hills Drive in their Rolls Royce. It was so cool seeing the people on the street smiling and waving at the couple as they drove by.

When the ceremony started, and Natalie entered the room, every single guest stood and started clapping and cheering. Joseph's face lit-up, and he too started clapping and cheering as Natalie began walking down the aisle.

The whole day was fantastic from beginning to the end!

Jessica & Hiram

Here's an opening Highlight Montage from Jessica and Hiram's wedding production. An artist painted during their reception and at the end of the night, the couple had an amazing work of art which captured their gorgeous reception venue, and their first dance as husband and wife.

This couple's ceremony was so incredibly emotional. Jessica and her dad walked down the aisle to Coldplay's "Yellow"...the look on Hiram's face was one of the many highlights of the day.
