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!

Lauren & Chris

I'm so excited to share Chris and Lauren's highlights film! Their ceremony at the historic Smith-Trahern Mansion was so intimate and so perfect! I'm so happy that they invited us to be a part of their wedding day and to capture such beautiful moments for them. After the ceremony, we headed over to the always-fabulous WaterStreet Events Center for a fun and happy reception, celebrating Chris and Lauren's new marriage. We really enjoyed filming Lauren and Chris and their friends and family throughout the wedding day, and we loved piecing all of their footage together to show off all the moments that made their wedding so special!

Joan of Art!

We're busy editing today but I just wanted to share some photos from a recent wedding we shot with Joan of Art Photography. This was one of our special multimedia projects where Joan shot the photos while we filmed and we'll edit the video and photos together for the bride & groom. These photos are from Stephanie & Kinley's wedding day last month. They had their ceremony at Sugar Grove Carriage House (check out the horse & carriage - see below!) and they held their reception at the Hopkinsville Country Club. I LOVE editing multimedias so I can't wait to mesh our video with Joan's fabulous photos to create Stephanie & Kinley's wedding day film.

Top Ten

I am so excited to share this multimedia film from Molly & Dave's vow renewal! Lots of surprises in this film, including an AMAZING first dance, the Top Ten Reasons God Created Eve, a little bit of Blue Steel, and more! We always have fun working with Bethany Ann Photography, and she gave me some super awesome photos that I paired with our footage to create this highlights film for Molly & Dave. Enjoy!

Allison & Daniel: The Mosaic

Filming Allison & Daniel's wedding day was the perfect way to end the wedding season! I really loved this wedding. Everything was beautiful, everyone was happy, and the whole evening was a lot of fun. I've been wanting to edit a highlights video to this song for awhile and Allison & Daniel's footage was just perfect for it. Enjoy!

Allison & David

Allison & David had such a fun wedding day, filled with lots of amazing moments, including a horse & carriage ride, choreographed bridesmaids dance, and more! I loved filming their gorgeous ceremony at Glen Raven Mansion, followed by their reception at The Center in Springfield, TN. Allison & David were so fun to work with and it was really a pleasure capturing their wedding day, which they spent surrounded by lots of wonderful friends & family.

Hannah & Dustin

I loved this couple & their wedding day! Hannah & Dustin were so sweet and so laid back. They seemed to have such a stress-free wedding day and you could really feel the love at their ceremony, surrounded by LOTS of friends & family. It's always a pleasure filming a happy couple, so I wanted to give Hannah & Dustin a highlights film as happy as they were that day.

Allison & Daniel: The Trailer

Sometimes I just know I'm going to be filming an amazing wedding day, and Allison & Daniel's big day was definitely one of those occasions. Great couple, great bridal party, great families, great vendors, great venues, great everything! Their wedding day was really perfection and I couldn't wait to get started editing their films. Here's their trailer, which highlights just snippets of all the amazing-ness we captured that day!

Best Bridesmaids Dance #2

Our 2nd winners of the "Best Bridesmaids Dance of 2010" are Erin & her bridesmaids with their Michael Jackson/Beyonce Remix! Enjoy:

Best Bridesmaids Dance #1

Moving forward with our Best of 2010 Awards, we have the Best Bridesmaids Dance...and it's a tie!! Our first winners come from Mallory & Aaron's wedding day in June 2010. Mallory and her bridesmaids choreographed their dance based off the "Jai Ho" music video from the movie Slumdog Millionaire. I thought they did an AMAZING job! So much so, that I even filled one afternoon at "work" memorizing the dance as well. :) Thanks for the inspiration ladies!

P.S. My favorite part of this clip HAS to be the reception guests in the background trying to do the dance with them. :) Check it out!

Best of 2010 Awards

O.M.G. - I almost forgot to post the Best of 2010 Awards! We started the annual awards last year when we recognized the craziest, funniest, and most unique and memorable moments of 2009. Well, now it's time for the Best of 2010! We're kickin things of with the Best Father-Daughter Dance of 2010. Mallory & her dad choreographed a super special, super fun father-daughter dance and I'm so happy we were there to preserve the whole event on film for them. Enjoy!

My Fair Ladies

Fun at the fair with the always adventurous models from The Bride's Boutique. Genius idea for a photo shoot via Carly Rager Event Design & Coordinating. Always love shooting with Photography by Shea & always love the jewelry from Stella & Dot presented by Independent Stylist Michele Gayler.
