THE KNOT MAGAZINE - WINE COUNTRY VIDEO SEGMENT

I made a very nice friend yesterday, Jess of Jess Flood Event Design.  A few weeks back I got a call from Jess to help shoot a wine country segment for The Knot Magazine.  We'd basically showcase a select list of vendors and venues in the Napa and Sonoma Valley and get to know the people and families behind the unique wines, flowers, cakes, and services available to couples planning a wedding in wine country.  We spent the day interviewing, wine-tasting, hors d'oeuvres sampling, touring, and filming (did i mention wine tasting already?) with Jess and two other wonderful friends from The Knot Magazine, Christa Vagnozzie and Rebecca Crumley.  We got a really unique peek into the lives of some really special individuals whom make it their passion to provide such exquisite crafts and experiences for the rest of us to enjoy - particularly couples in the market to get hitched!  Thanks Jess for the wonderful opportunity to work with you and don't hesitate to let us know if there's anything else we can help you with in the future!!  Couples, you gotta check some of these places out!  Incredible!!

Check them out!!

TERESA + TRUNG | WEDDING TEASER (PART 1)

So the day finally arrived for Teresa + Trung. I recall when we first met a little over a year ago, that we'd have a great time working together. Being that Teresa is a MUA (Make Up Artist) and Trung is a culinary maestro, their combined creative energy was going to be great to work with. I was right and we had a blast shooting their wedding. Here's a few photos to enjoy...more to come!!

JACKIE + IRWIN | CITY SHOOT

We recently had a chance to spend a fun filled evening with Jackie and Irwin in the city. The evening colors were at their best and we couldn't resist snapping some of these photos as the sun went down. Then we skipped over to the piers and managed to grab some more shots. Please enjoy the photos below!

JACKIE + IRWIN'S HIGHLIGHTS

Hot off the press is Jackie and Irwin's wedding video highlights.  The entire day was magical and we enjoyed every moment of it, which - I am sure - our couple did as well.  In this sample, you'll notice that we've applied some of our custom made color correction filters to give particular clips a unique vintage feel.  You'll not find a plugin anywhere on the market with these same looks...it's all done by hand and in-house.  Hope you enjoy it!!

ELENA + DIEGO | TEASER

We are thrilled to post these teaser photos of Elena and Diego's wedding for you to enjoy.  Elena and Diego married their respective sweetheart in the beautiful and historic St. Joseph's Basilica.  We had a blast with the wedding party photo session at the San Jose City Hall Rotunda and then celebrated in style with a banquet reception nearby at the beautiful St. Claire Hotel. All throughout the day, we were touched with how much warmth and hospitality their family and friends received us and are honored to have been part of their special day.

DENISE + BENJO'S WEDDING HIGHLIGHTS

Denise and Benjo's ceremony was filmed in Alameda at St. Barnabas Church and reception was at Scott's Restaurant in Alameda. And if you happen to be paying attention to some of the video clips, their photographer was the ultra talented Ed Pingol...amazing images!!
