Erin and Troy's Wedding Video. May 18th, 2019. A little backstory from Erin: “I met Troy shortly after he moved to South Carolina from Michigan while I was there visiting a friend in early 2014. Shortly after we met I moved from PA to Florida and even with the distance we stayed friends for a couple years. Our first official date was New Years Eve, Dec 31st 2015 when Troy came down to Florida to visit me. And from our first date we knew this was something special. The 3.5 hou

There are a lot of ideas that I took for granted when I started my own business. In today's post, we'll explore one simple notion that I thought was just a given: Communication. What? This isn't a basic necessity for doing business? No, it is. It definitely is. I just didn't know that some people aren't doing a good job at this. It wasn't until I started hearing people tell me their horror stories about not getting a response from their videographer. A couple that just booked

A quick glance through my hoard of reviews on wedding wire reveals an obvious common phrase "we were on the fence about videography." This is usually explained by the budget impact of videography and quickly concluded by the reassurance that not only was it a good decision, it would have been a huge regret had they not chosen to get the video! On the other hand, pretty much every bride I've talked to who didn't have a wedding videographer says it's the number one regret from

It's always an honor for another wedding vendor to entrust you with their own wedding. They've met a lot of vendors, and have had a lot of time to think about what they want for their wedding. Wedding vendors tend to have high expectations as well. For all of those reasons, I was excited and a bit nervous when Jessica asked me to shoot her wedding. We worked together on one of my first weddings years ago, so it seemed incredible to me that having watched my work grow all that

You're planning to pop the question. Take the big leap. This is big. It changes everything. This is an epic moment, and people are going to ask again and again how this proposal happened. You'll tell the story over and over again, but it'll never quite have the emotional weight of actually being there. You hired a photographer, and you have these adorable photos. But how do you convey what it felt like at that moment? Video. It's not complicated. This is the medium of our tim

What holds us back from writing our own vows? Is it the fear that we won’t be able to elequently capture our feelings in the form of words? I would argue that the simple, traditional vows certainly don’t achieve that. I get why some people might prefer them, but they definitely don’t capture your individuality or speak to your heart personally. Is it the general fear of speaking in public? If you’re worried about that, I’ve got great news for you: it’s pretty easy to forget a

Set under the iconic oaks of Savannah's Wormsloe Historic Site, this intimate wedding was full of laughs and tears. I love the way these two were able to be comfortable being themselves on video, and it makes for a really good time! I've been seeing more and more weddings and wedding videos where the bride and groom write letters to each other. These make for amazing moments in the video. I believe any time we as videographers can get more of the personal story integrated int
