Here is a short segment I put together from Kaite and Jordan's wedding day. It was an overcast day but with spotty sun which I think added alot to the look of the session. They are a very stunning couple and really great subjects. I was shooting with Amelia & Justin Lyons that day. Check their stuff here. Here is a taste of the day. more to follow. Enjoy

Been needing to update my demo reel for a while now. Finally got around to doing it. Take a gander.

I've been excited to edit this one. Paige & Doug had a very colorful and fun wedding. The standout of the day was the enormous Ferris Wheel that was set-up in the backyard at the reception. The entire event was carnival themed. Heather at Amorology did another amazing job planning this one. Color was in abundance at this one.

So I want your help here.

We all know that online video has taken over in some respects. I certainly love it, but what do you think?

From most of my conversations with my clients I get mixed answers.

Do you own Blu-ray and in your opinion, is it worth the extra cost?

I have been shooting in High Definition for several years now, but very few people request the blu-ray disc.

So, what I am doing is putting the poll out there, Is there an interest yet in getting a Blu-Ray copy of your wedding video?

Answer below if you think it is worth it. If I get enough of a response, I may push harder for Blu-Ray. But as of right now, people don't seem to prefer either way. You tell me!

With every Corporate and Commercial video I work on, I am constantly hearing "why didn't I do this sooner?" 

Using video to advertise your business is one of the best and exciting way to promote your service or product.

It doesn't matter what type of business you own, everyone can benefit.  

Here are some examples:

Are you a professional? How about a brief company profile introducing yourself and your services on your website, including some customer testimonials and explanation of your service.

Do you have a product? The possibilities are endless. A static image on a website cannot do any product justice. Let us put your product in action, add some flare, and make it larger than life. I have spent years making products come to life and distributing that content worldwide. Let's not forget about having a good  video to show off at your next convention or pitch meeting. 

Service Professional? Carpet Cleaner, Contractor, or Artist?  Let us capture you in action. Before and After videos and time lapse videos can show how you do your stuff. 

You DO NOT need to air a commercial on cable TV to benefit from video. It's called the internet!

It is Easy, Affordable and it works.  Call us today for more info and a quote for your business. 

Here's a clip of a good looking couple! Andrew & Elyse were stunning and Elyses' dress was the talk of the day. I always enjoy working with close friends. I have done all of Andrew's siblings weddings and it was fun to finish off with the youngest in the family. Time for a box set I guess!

Anyways, enjoy the video here of the Newport Beach, CA Temple

I got a call from the owner of Ladera Ranch Dance on Thurs night and asked me if I could help them out. He had an advertising slot he purchased with Edwards Theatres and now needed a commerical for it. It needed to be done with 2.5 days. You know me, I love a challenge. We ended up shooting the next day at the Dance Studio and had a good time. I think the students had an even better time being on camera. We ended up having the short 15 second commercial done and shipped off to the powers that be. I think it came out cool. You always want more time to put together your projects, but it's just as fun working under a tight deadline. Enjoy the video. If you have young ones who want to dance, definitely check them out. Awesome people and a great group of students.

I have been excited to get to this wedding. I had such a good time filming this wedding and enjoyed the class and beauty of what was done by Heather and Crew. Andrea & Brian had a great group and some great vendors who made this a night to remember. Leo Patrone was there to catch the details (and there were alot of them)

Nathan Petty was doing the candid photo booth as well as Twigg Botanicals putting ALOT of arrangements together. The Prado in Balboa Park is an incredible venue and perfect for this Spanish themed wedding reception. The entire theme of the wedding was centered around the song by Coldplay "Viva la Vida" So naturally the song is used as a highlight reel for the day. Enjoy.

This was a very beautiful wedding that I shot out at the Crosby Clubhouse in Rancho Santa Fe.

Josh & Jen were a great couple to work with and alot of fun. They had a big family supporting them that day and a beeautiful ceremony. The Crosby is an awesoem venue. It is tucked away deep in the Rancho Santa Fe Hills. The wedding was graced by some wonderful vendors as well. Photography was done by Sara France and the Wedding Planner was Amorology.   This wedding was also spotlighted by The Southern Weddings Daily Blog
