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.

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!

1940’s Themed Wedding Teaser

June 11th, 2010 by John under General, Trailers, Videography, Weddings

Couldn’t resist throwing together a little sneak peak of this adorable couple.  Michelle and Joe were smiles the whole day and took their wedding theme of the 1940’s to the hilt with every detail from the vintage cars, bridesmaid dresses, ring bearer outfits and flower girl dresses… even the hairstyles and accessories were vintage.

Though its not shown in this teaser video, they also mixed in some Mexican flair with a live Mariachi band and Mexican food for dinner which really made for a fun combination to go with the 1940’s theme.

It’s short… but a fun one to watch all the same. Enjoy :)

Mike & Ashley’s Trailer

May 3rd, 2010 by John under Trailers, Videography, Weddings

“In sickness and in health” has never meant so much as it did for this couple.

Mike and Ashely’s wedding was originally scheduled for July 2009, but when Mike received word that he had cancer in April 2009, the wedding was postponed until December in hopes that it would go into remission.  I’ll leave the video to tell what happened to Mike, but no matter what the outcome it was clear that Mike and Ashley’s wedding vows would take on a whole new meaning when they expressed them on their wedding day.  It’s so easy to gloss over wedding vows and not think about the depth and importance behind all the words spoken.  I mean, people mess them up all the time and have a hard enough time saying them them let alone thinking about life long meaning behind them… which is why I think this wedding was so different and special.  I’m not saying people don’t mean what they say or think about their vows when saying them, but there is something deeper that takes place when saying “in sickness and in health” after going through what Mike and Ashley went through.

Needless to say, I’ve been blessed to have been a part of this happy day for Mike and Ashley.  They are some of the greatest people you’ll ever meet and their inspirational story has touched so many.  They have taken upon themselves a challenge to raise $60,000 to find a cure for blood cancer and if you should feel let to donate to this worthy cause you can find out more by clicking here.
