New State, New Name, New Blog

So, now that we've settle in here in Florida, I've decided to change my business name and we're now Emerald Coast Films! We are still filming and editing events in the Clarksville-Nashville-Hopkinsville area (and I love a good reason to go visit all our friends up there!) but now we're also serving the panhandle area.

Coming Soon: Katherine & Joshua

Well, this was my last wedding in Clarksville this year. I hope to book more up there next year so I can go visit my friends and all the awesome wedding vendors I've met over the years. I think it was really fitting that Katherine and Josh's wedding took place at Madison Street United Methodist Church and the Clarksville Country Club. Out of all the venues in Clarksville, we shot at that church and that reception venue the most. It really was the perfect way to finish my time living up there. And I couldn't have asked for a better wedding day to film! Katherine and Josh's wedding day was perfect - the bridal party, family & friends were awesome, the weather was great, and everything worked out perfectly. I can't wait to get to work on their films, and hopefully I'll be back at MSUMC and the Country Club soon for another amazing wedding day!

Ami + Will

3:00 pm We arrived at Pennryile State Park to film Ami aka The Bride getting ready for her wedding day.

5:00 pm We headed over to the outdoor ceremony site to film Will aka The Groom and shoot some b-roll.

5:30 pm The bottom dropped out. It was raining. Like, SERIOUSLY pouring. We hid under some trees.

The ceremony was supposed to start in an hour and there was no plan B. Then at about 6:00 pm, or 1 minute and 19 seconds into this highlights film, something amazing happened. The clouds parted, the sun came out, and it was like the rain never even happened. It. Was. Perfect.

Coming Soon: Kayla + Robert

Let's talk about the greatest wedding gift ever. Seriously, Robert hit this one out of the park. I don't want to spoil it so you're going to have to watch the trailer film but this groom's gift to his bride Kayla made for the sweetest first look that I've filmed all year. Enjoy!

Carrie & Nick: The Mosaic

There was SO much to love about Carrie and Nick's wedding day: the beautiful venue, the gorgeous weather, the fabulous guests, the handmade details, and, of course, the happy couple! Everything came together perfectly for Carrie and Nick's wedding day and it made filming and editing the event a lot of fun for us.

We've Moved!

So, after 10 years of being based out of Clarksville, TN, I'm excited to announce that we have moved to the Emerald Coast in Florida! We are still filming and editing events in the Clarksville-Nashville-Hopkinsville area (and I love a good reason to go visit all our friends up there!) but now we're also serving the panhandle area. My husband and I actually had a beach wedding so it's a fun change of pace to get to film destination weddings down here.

But for all my Clarksville peeps, if you know anyone looking for a home, our old house is on the market and we'd love for them to check it out: 1837 Twin Rivers Rd, Clarksville, TN 37040

Emily + Brian

Time has flown by this summer! It seems like just yesterday we were filming Emily and Brian's wedding day at The Tanglewood House. I have second shot as a photographer (for the always wonderful Bethany Ann Photography *shameless plug*) at this venue before but this was my first time filming there. Everything was perfect that day, from Emily and Brian's outdoor ceremony to their intimate reception inside The Tanglewood House. There were so many wonderful details on their wedding day - it was a lot of fun capturing and editing them all together.

Music: "By Two" by Dave Barnes

Carrie + Nick: The Trailer

This whole wedding season, I have been so excited for Carrie and Nick's wedding day! I didn't get to meet them until their wedding day but I had spoken with both of them on the phone and via e-mail, and I could just tell that it was going to be a sweet and fun wedding day. Carrie is quite possibly the craftiest bride I've ever met. There were so many special, unique pieces that she created for her wedding day and it was obvious that both her and Nick put a lot of thought and effort into all of the aspects of their wedding day. So, to Carrie and Nick, I hope that you enjoy your wedding trailer and I can't wait to edit and share all of your wedding day films with you!

Sly Fox Drive

We're in the midst of wedding season, but even though I'm elbow deep in editing, I'm still sneaking in virtual tour shoots whenever I get a chance. Check out this great listing from the Felicia Long Team:

One of my favorite things about this house has to be the color. I love that when giving directions, you can just say "It's the yellow house!" and people can easily find your home.

Gotta love these stainless steel appliances:

The house has a deck and a fenced in yard - perfect for pets!

Heron Ridge Court

I recently shot this beauty for the Felicia Long Team! If you like what you see, click here to visit the personalized website I created for this home. The site includes more photos, virtual tour video, details about the home, and list price.

Amazingly Large Rec Room:

This kitchen is even more beautiful in person:

The master suite is loaded with awesomeness, including this remodeled bathroom:

And the master closet has gorgeous built ins:

And even more built ins:

My favorite part of this home is the back deck. It was MASSIVE!

This house is on 1+ acre overlooking the Red River so this outdoor living space is private and quiet:

Lindsey & Josh

Blog fail! I uploaded Lindsey and Josh's mosaic film online a couple months ago and never added it to the blog. So, better late than never, I'm happy to finally be sharing some highlights from their wedding day! But first, let's back up a few months to March 2014. Filming Lindsey and Josh's wedding day was such a great way to start the wedding season! Everyone at the wedding, bridal party, family, and guests, were all a lot of fun, and we really enjoyed getting to be a part of Lindsey and Josh's special day. This was our first time shooting at both Oakwood Free Will Baptist Church and Valor Hall Conference & Event Center, and we loved getting to film at these new venues (well, new to us). :)

Fox Crossing & Crosswinds Homes

It's been a fun few weeks! We recently shot 8 homes for Lindy Schmittou of Reliant Realty and then took 10 days off to go visit some family, so now it's time to catch up on some blogging! These Hutcheson Construction homes are in the Crosswinds and Fox Crossing subdivisions. Here are some miscellaneous shots of some of the houses. If you're interested in seeing any of these homes, contact Lindy Schmittou at 931-245-8800 for more information. 

Love the blue garage door, front door and shutters (see below)! It's so beautiful and unique; makes me want a blue house. :)

Gorgeous kitchen! Here it is with white cabinetry:

And dark cabinetry (see below). These high ceilings are even more amazing in person.

I love covered back porches! You can't beat a beautiful outdoor living space:

April Booking Special

For many reasons, April is one of my favorite months of the year! Here's just a couple of them: 1. It finally starts to feel Spring-y. 2. My sons' daycare does a fundraiser for St Jude Children's Research Hospital and I just LOVE fundraising for charity! No sarcasm there - I really enjoy it. :) So this year we'll be donating 10% of all video production services booked during the month of April to St Jude's. This includes wedding videos, virtual tours, commercials, instructional videos, etc. These services can be for any date, during any month, they just have to be reserved by April 30, 2014. Contact us at 931-920-4220 or info@turningpointproductions.com for more information!

Kelly + Loren

When I found out that Kelly was having a small wedding at her home, I immediately knew that I was going to offer to film it for her. I knew this for several reasons:

1. I like Kelly. She's funny and sarcastic and I can totally relate to that. :)
2. While I do enjoy a big party, there's something so genuine and comfortable about quaint weddings at home. Filming small weddings is so relaxing and everyone is always welcoming. I really enjoy the atmosphere.
3. I truly believe that everyone deserves a wedding video. Kelly's first reaction when I asked her if she wanted a video was, "I can't afford you". I had a literal LOL and then told her I wanted to do it for free.

I knew there was a reason I wanted to be there that day and I'm so happy that I ended up being a part of their wedding day. Kelly's daughter made a toast after the ceremony that I believe was just wise beyond her years. Everything she said was so heart-felt and I think it would be sad if they didn't have that moment on video. I'm glad I was there filming that day and I'm excited for Kelly and Loren's future together with their big, happy family!

Homes For Sale

We recently filmed and photographed some homes for sale for Larry Chappell over at ERA and Jeffrey Danault with Keller Williams. First up is a fun home on Hazelwood Drive in Clarksville! I was so happy I was able to shoot on one of our rare sunny days this winter (seriously, I'm sick of the cloudy days).

I REALLY love the floor plan in this house. It has a nice, open kitchen & dining room:

HUGE master bathroom. Seriously, this bathroom might be bigger than my first apartment:

Nice, big bonus room:

Great backyard! Lots of area to run/play - this is definitely a kid-friendly home & neighborhood.

Click here to visit turningpointproductions.com/virtualtours/1715hazelwoodrd.html to see the website we made for this Hazelwood Drive home (includes all photos, pricing, etc) and be sure to contact the Larry Chappell Team for more information about this property.

Next up is this awesome property we shot for Jeffrey Danault. This Squirrel Drive home is in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood in Dover. I got to talk to the homeowners and they really love living there, so much so that they are actually moving into another house in the same neighborhood. I think that really speaks volumes about how enjoyable it is to live there.

Love this open concept floor plan:

Big kitchen leading into a large laundry room/mud room with it's own entrance from the car port:

No backyard neighbors AND it's walking distance to the lake. I can only imagine how beautiful this looks in the summer!
