Mark & Jen, 10.10.10. – Highlights Video

Where do I begin! Mark and Jen have probably been the most unique couple I have ever had the pleasure to film a wedding for (and that is a compliment). Everything about their wedding was pure original and had Jen’s flare everywhere you looked…from her fuschia wedding dress to the fuschia glow sticks! From my first meeting with Jen (when she handed me a precisely drawn floorplan of the ceremony site), I knew this wedding was going to be one to remember…and it was! We started filming Jen getting her hair and makeup done at Lauren Ashley’s Salon & Day Spa in Erwin NC. From there, we shot down I-40 to the Sheraton Hotel in downtown Raleigh where her and her bridesmaids got dressed. Prior to the ceremony, Mark and Jen planned a perfect “first look” on Fayetteville St. right in front of the Courthouse. The Ceremony and Reception were held down the street at The Mahler which is a fine art gallery (definitely worth checking out when you are in Raleigh). After the Cereomony, Mark, Jen, and their guests walked back to the Courthouse where they performed a butterfly release…that was awesome! The Reception was rocked by the very talented Taylor Pittman from Taylor Made DJ Services: great DJ and the nicest guy you will ever meet. The evening was filled with eating and dancing….in the dark with those fuschia glow sticks! Congratulation’s Mark and Jen!

Jenna & Brian, 9.4.10 – Highlights Video

Jenna and Brian’s Wedding was full of incredible moments throughout the day. We were honored to be able to capture and share each of these moments and hope you enjoy some of the Highlights we put together. Jenna’s pre-ceremony footage was shot at the Embassy Suites in Cary and Brian’s at his townhouse. From there we moved to ceremony location at St. Francis of Assisi. It was a beautiful ceremony at a beautiful church on a beautiful day! The night capped off at Prestonwood Country Club with some of the craziest dancing you will ever see at a Wedding Reception. I just hope that the Groomsmen purchased rental insurance for their tuxedos! Thank you Jenna and Brian for allowing us to be a part of your day!

Tamara & Paul, 11.6.2010 – Short Film


*For slower connections, turn HD off and pause to let video fully load.*

Tamara and Paul celebrated their Wedding Day in downtown Raleigh, North Carolina. The Pre-Ceremony Preparations took place at the Sheraton Hotel and was capped off with a Bride/Groom reveal with Paul’s daughter Raelin accompanying Tamara on her walk. The Ceremony took place at 11 o’clock at the most beautiful Sacred Heart Cathedral and was followed that evening with a Cocktail Hour and Reception at the fabulous Cobblestone Hall…easily one of our favorite spots for a Reception. The Cocktail Hour had it going on with live music by the extremely talented Jason Adamo. The Reception was DJ’d by rockin’ Kevin Majoros who kept the dance floor alive throughout the night! The entire day was captured by one of the best Photographers in the area: Christobal Perez from Azul Photography…his work is absolutely awesome! Finally, we want to thank Tamara and Paul for having us film their day. It was a pleasure and we want to wish you and your family the best!

It was such a pleasure to be a part of Karin and Channing’s weekend of celebration. It was an honor to be able to film not only their Wedding Day, but the traditional Tea Ceremony the evening before. Karin and Channing were referred to us by a past client and we can’t thank them enough for that referral. The Wedding and Reception took place at the fabulous North Hills Club in Raleigh, North Carolina and we were able to work along side some great vendors. Lauren, the Events Manager at North Hills Club, and her staff were so helpful and accommodating which made our “job” that much easier. Thank you Karin and Channing for allowing us to capture your day!
