I’m slowly digging my way through a crazy busy summer and editing like a mad man.
Today I’m happy to post some highlights from Aaron & Nikole’s wedding in Frankfort, IL. My video team and I were there to document the day together (you’ll see us at the end of the post… hehe) and we couldn’t have asked for a better couple to work with. So happy, in love and of course easy to film and photograph.
Here are a few quick highlights from their wedding day. Love this adorable couple!
You may recall an earlier post for Andrea and Nick featuring their “Save the Date” video… well today I’m pleased to post some highlights from their engagement photo shoot!
I seriously can’t wait for their wedding next year. Such a fun couple! It’s gonna be awesome! I know everyone says it, but I SERIOUSLY have the best clients ever.
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.
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!)
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!
