Meet Nash! He's a special friend of our owner, Christina.
When we found out Nash would be a ring bearer in one of our upcoming weddings.... we KNEW he would steal the show.

Nash has Apert Syndrome.

Google will tell you it's a "genetic disorder", but his mom will tell you it's a superpower. Nash has had nearly 10 surgeries, including his head, hands, mouth and brain. Nash was born without fingers or toes. Nash was not expected to ever walk.

BUT LOOK AT HIM NOW. (& look at those fingers!)

A wedding video celebrates the Bride & Groom, but it also captures the pieces of your story that brought you to this moment:

- Your relationship with your grandparents
- The culmination of dance nights with your bestie (preparing you for the very moment Whitney comes on with "I wanna dance")
- The crazy aunt who is always first in line at the wine bar
- The nephew who defies odds, encourages laughter, and spreads joy.... Nash.

SO - Cheers to the story that led you here, cheers to the differences that make us all special, and cheers to Nash - the BEST BEST BEST ring bearer and coolest kid around.

Guys. LOVE IS PATIENT. I owe it to Desmar & Jada. Covid, the holidays, my own engagement. This film took some time. But man am I grateful to relive that day!

This day. These people. It meant everything.

Jada told us she wanted the "beautiful black love" to radiate.
And it did.

I walked away from this wedding.... ...reminded that love is patient and kind. Desmar & Jada are highschool sweethearts, now husband and wife. Their love RADIATES.

It's here! Heath + Kennedi tied the knot & it's a day we won't soon forget!

I walked away from this wedding reminded of how powerful the support of family can be. The love Heath & Kennedi share is only amplified by the love their family shares with them. Kennedi's grandparents have been married for 60 years! We know Heath & Kennedi will follow suit!

I've known Hannah and her family since we were kiddos. Hannah has ALWAYS been the same. Kind, sweet, intelligent and giving. Our friend group has always been extra picky when it comes to guys who try to @ her because we've always known her worth! Which is why watching her marry Corey was so easy! Two gentle souls reminding each other why it never worked out with anyone else. Love. True and limitless.

If you zoom in on this picture you'll notice the bride and groom are looking UP ⬆️. They have their eyes set on our drone. Our second videographer captured this photo of what seems to be a future photog! 👏

Drone footage is a MUST. It's moving. It's powerful. It captures the big picture of your wedding.

Still photos provide an image of a moment in time - SO important for your special day (We love our photog partners!) - but equally as special are wedding videos which capture both movement and sound.

With a wedding video, you’ll be able to hear your spouse gasp during your first look, your dad’s toast and your mom’s laughter. You’ll be able to watch your first kiss as newlyweds, your first dance, and your grandmother’s amazing dance moves.

Wouldn't you just love to see these grandparents squeeze her little cheeks? https://bit.ly/3v5LYR7 Watch Brendan & Becky's wedding film and you can!

Spoiler: You won't see everything on your wedding day.

Luckily, your videographer will.

You might not see the flower girl walk down the aisle, or your mother in law shed a tear during the vows, or your parents slow dancing at the reception while you drop it low. 😅😉 But we will.

Let us capture these moments on film and allow you to enjoy them over and over again.

*Our second videographer captured these fun moments with friends and family, while our main videographer filmed the bride and groom post-ceremony.

Becky and I broadly knew each other through mutual friends. When we met for her initial bridal consultation, we hit it off... like, for real. We stayed more than an hour drinking coffee, sharing family stories and dreaming of her big day. Filming this bride was a sweet gift. Soooo

Congrats to the Howard fam!

You may have seen the 'money dance' at a wedding before... But have you seen a SAMOAN money dance?

It was clear to us the Samoan culture is rich in music, dancing - and most importantly, family.

This is "Samoan Dance" by Locust Media on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them.
