Kellie & Jason’s Wedding Trailer

September 2nd, 2010 by John under Trailers, Videography, Weddings

This is our first “Official” trailer for the 2010 season and we are so excited to show it today. Kellie and Jason were a dream to work with and gave us so many amazing things to shoot and told some great stories throughout the day.

This wedding had so many great details from the custom designed programs, invitations and dinner menu’s (all designed by the the bride, Kellie) as well as some out of this world floral designs by Jenn at Modern Day Floral. Of course I can’t leave out Kellie’s fantastic dress from Bridal Elegance and the fantastic reception venue at Cascade Hills Country Club who also made the wedding cake.

But enough with the details… and on with the video! Play. Enjoy.

Alexa – Senior Session

August 18th, 2010 by John under Seniors

One of my favorite senior sessions to date! Here is Alexa!

(Technical note: I processed all the RAW images in Nikon Capture NX2 first, then did my typcial post processing in Photoshop. I think the color and sharpness is WAY better than Adobe’s RAW to JPEG conversion… it was a slower and longer process, but I think the results were worth it. Hopefully you agree!)

Andrea + Nick’s “Save the Date” Trailer

August 16th, 2010 by John under Trailers, Weddings

While I know the idea of a “Save the Date” video is not completely new or original, it is definitely NOT something many people are doing yet … but they should!

I actually had the idea to create a save the date video about 2+ years ago and have been waiting for the perfect time to launch it as a service I provide. But it wasn’t until recently that I finally got the chance to put my ideas in action and make this new product available to my wedding clients. Today I am so excited to finally be able to show my spin on this newer concept and officially launch this new service!

I had the opportunity a few weeks ago to not only film this new trailer, but also take Andrea and Nick’s engagement pictures in Northport, Michigan up in the Leelanau peninsula (which I will be posting soon). I couldn’t have asked for a better couple to work with… outgoing, creative, willing, bold, flexible, excited, and of course very photogenic. Needless to say I’m excited to have my team film and photograph their wedding with me next year!

Below is their save the date trailer. I hope its the first of many more to come. Now crank up your speakers and enjoy!
