Me and the wife went to downtown Fort Worth last weekend for a night on the town. While out, I decided to do a little night shooting with the new camera. Enjoy!

We are excited to announce that we are upgrading our equipment this year to video DSLRs for our upcoming 2010 wedding season as well as for corporate work. What is a video DSLR you might ask?
Put simply, it’s a still camera that can also shoot high definition video using the same lenses that professional photographers use to get those stunning images. What it means for you is jaw dropping quality that looks and feels more like film than traditional video. I can talk all day about how amazing the new cameras we’re getting are but pictures speak louder than words so here’s a quick clip. Enjoy!

Last year we had the honor of filming Christine and Jonathan’s wedding at the gorgeous Piazza in the Village in Colleyville, TX. Little did I know when we booked the wedding that their event would be featured on the hit TV show, “Platinum Weddings”. So, I just want to take a moment and congratulate Christine and Jonathan for making it on the show. If you want to catch it, their wedding story will be featured this Sunday, February 7, at 8:00pm central on WETV with repeats throughout the week.
On Sunday and through repeats, you’ll get to see WETV’s version, but in case you’re curious, here’s the first 6 minutes from our take of the wedding day. The substantial camera crew that shot the show even makes a cameo or two 
Enjoy!

Over the past decade, we’ve been fortunate enough to shoot some amazing videos for the Dallas wedding market and beyond. We’ve been chosen as one of the top wedding and event companies by Event DV magazine for ‘06 and ‘07 and have been asked to teach video production all over the country. In late 2009, we decided it was time to bring the same passion and artistry we have for wedding videography to the corporate world.
As a way of introducing our services to local businesses, we are offering our web promotion package. Put simply, the web promotion package is a custom made commercial that lasts from 1-2 minutes that you can embed right on your website. It’s a fantastic and surprisingly economical way to incorporate video into your business model. Here’s a sample from a video we did for Switch It By Nan……
If you would like to have a promo similar to this for your website or need a more complex project, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. We’d be happy to hear from you.

To me, a wedding video is the best way to capture the sights, sounds and significance of a day that flies by way too quickly. But a wedding video can be so much more than just documenting the day as it happened. With that in mind, I created The Storyteller Package for 2010.
With the Storyteller Package, we not only film the day’s events but we also interview the bride and groom shortly after the wedding to get their perspective on the day. We then use that interview footage as the basis for the wedding video edit. Here are some clips from a couple who chose The Storyteller Package. Special thanks to Humza Yasin of Humza Yasin Photo for the stills that were used in this production. I think you’ll agree, it’s something special…..

In addition to couples planning to get married, this package is also available to already married couples whose video might need a little “rehabilitation” or as part of an anniversary video. Please get in touch for a custom quote if you’d like more information.
I haven’t been this excited over a new product offering in years and I hope you’ll consider this option when booking our services.

Feels good to be back on the blog.
2009 was indeed a challenge not only with wedding videos but our new baby, the corporate video. It’s been pretty interesting learning new stuff and somehow trying to incorporate our style into something totally (and usually) not wedding related.
So, what to expect for 2010? A LOT! New challenges and a lot more stuff for the brides. First off, we have started to offer our Storyteller’s Package. It’s for those who want to put into their video their thoughts about their wedding day. It’s pretty cool actually. It’s sort of telling your wedding story (while you can still clearly remember it) and incorporating it into your wedding video. It’s very romantic but not cheesy.
It’s been a good year over all and hope y’all had the same.

Still a few more months left before the season is over but I can’t wait to post about the weddings that we had so far.
It’s different hearing the stories from Chris and experiencing them myself. I can still remember how nervous I’ve been when I finally get to hold the camera and film my first wedding with him. That was Jennifer and Justin’s wedding.
The total replanning of Tiffany’s venue, Jennifer Holten’s vineyard reception, and Alisa’s fantastic cocktail complete with the Dallas Cowboy’s cheerleaders, breakdancers, and fairies, are just some of the most memorable ones that we have for the season, so far.
Why do we love weddings? Because we get to capture the emotions that only happen once in your life. After the dust of the celebration settles, the video that we deliver is that one remebrance that bring you back to that very special day; the laughter, the tears, your friends and families, and the look on your beloved’s face.
I’m sure that the next season’s weddings will be just as warm and unforgetable. And I can’t wait to hold the camera and capture them.
