Sanjuana and Melesio // Wedding Highlight Film, St Joseph Catholic Church, Bryan Texas

By on January 20, 2014 in College Station Weddings, Videos

When I first met Sanjuana and Melesio over coffee in College Station, they brought Sanjuana’s little niece along.  She was adorable, and insisted that she wanted to be a YouTube star one day.  I told her that she could be featured in their wedding film and she would be famous.  While I would like to say that she stole the show, Sanjuana and Melesio were definitely the stars of the day.

MariachiI always love having enough time to film the bride and the groom together before or after the ceremony; depending on if there if a first look or not.  This time with them always results in some of my favorite shots of the day as they candidly spend time together being happy as husband and wife for the first time.  Sanjuana made me super excited about their wedding because she made room for SEVERAL HOURS of filming the two of them together with the bridal party.  This, combined with their fun and easygoing attitude made for one of my best times filming their day.  Also, they had a mariachi at their reception, which automatically makes any reception ten times cooler.  I even got a photo with him!  If you’re planning on having a mariachi at your wedding, I would LOVE to film it!

The Greene Been Wedding // Wedding Highlight Film at La Colombe D’or, Houston Texas

By on December 13, 2012 in Houston Weddings, Videos, Weddings

Stacey and Patrick are one of those couples that make creating a beautiful wedding film easy.  They both were incredibly classy but with a twinge of Texas country which really shines through in this highlight film.  Last June, they were married in the Houston Museum District at La Colombe D’or, a boutique hotel with a ballroom that dates back to the 17th century.  The ballroom was actually constructed in France 300 years ago and then, many years later, transported in sections to the location that it is in today.  Like I said, classy.

One of the most charming things I found out about Stacey and Patrick was their last names, Greene and Beene.  Unfortunately, Stacey’s was Beene and Patrick’s is Greene so she will end up being Stacey Beene Greene.  So close to humor but not quite there!

We’ve Come A Long Way // Ashley and Boone // A Kyle Field Wedding, College Station TX

By on December 10, 2012 in College Station Weddings, Videos, Weddings

I have a list of fun places I would like to travel to when filming a wedding.  One that requires no traveling at all is Kyle Field in College Station.  I’m not saying that the couple actually needs to get married on the 50 yard line, but taking photos there would be cool.  Last June my wish came true and I was able to film Ashley & Boone’s wedding.  The emails started like most of them, with her telling me they would be married at a church, but then things got crazy when she told me the reception would be at the Kyle Field Zone Club.  And they would be taking pictures on the field, and the groom’s cake was a replica football field, and the garter would be wrapped around a football when he threw it.  Okay so I didn’t actually know about the garter, but I really shouldn’t have been surprised.

Slightly more seriously, I hope this wedding conveyed how much Ashley and Boone were waiting for this day.  As the minister said, they were together for a long time, and had both grown a lot.  They realized that together they were better people, and they wanted it to last forever.

Cross Kyle Field off my bucket list (but seriously, if you’re getting married and having part of your wedding there I will gladly film it again), now all that is left is Hawaii, New Zealand, a mountaintop, Antarctica, and Germany to name a few locations.

Rejoice With Stephanie and Ryan // Wedding Highlight Film, Praise Christian Center & Beaumont Country Club, Beaumont Texas

By on December 9, 2012 in Houston Weddings, Videos, Weddings

What’s the best way to follow-up an important life milestone like graduating? Of course it’s moving on to the next big milestone and marrying the person you love the most. This is exactly what I witnessed when I filmed Stephanie and Ryan’s wedding in May of 2012.  I originally met Stephanie at Sara and Jason’s wedding last year.  It was great to head back out to Beaumont and film another wedding.  They even got ready at the same salon.

As I was filming the most important day of their lives, two things stuck out to me that the pastor said about their wedding day. The first thing was that he quoted Romans 12:15 when he said, “Rejoice with those who rejoice.” – this wedding embodied that.  An excited couple experiencing a joining together with their close friends and family.  Second, he said that this was their day and it truly was. The spotlight was on them and they were shining. They sparkled more than the fireworks that their guests used to send them off!

Big thanks to Taylor Stanley and Ashley Stineman for helping me film this wedding!

Seth and Shawna // Wedding Highlight Film // Crystal Springs, Magnolia, Texas

By on July 2, 2012 in Houston Weddings, Videos, Weddings

Seth and Shawna are one of those couples that perfectly balances each other out. Seth is the loud, funny face making, laughing, starving musician that you can tell probably has a bit of trouble putting on his socks in the morning; while Shawna is a little more down to earth. They go perfectly together, which I think this wedding video illustrates rather well. Last December, my good friend Daniel Karr asked me if I would help him film their wedding at Crystal Springs in Magnolia Texas. I hadn’t heard of Crystal Springs but when I arrived I could see it was a perfect place for an outdoor wedding.

In a stand of trees surrounded by pastures, the wedding guests consisted of friends, relatives, and cows across the fence. One nice touch was the neighbor rancher was burning lumber next to the wedding venue making the air slightly hazy. This led to some phenomenal images captured with my new favorite camera, the Sony FS-100. This camera has all the strengths of DSLRs and none of the weaknesses. I will hopefully be adding one to my collection very soon. The rest of the venue was Pine and Cedar and smelled wonderful. I primarily shot with the Glidecam HD4000 and Kessler Cineslider.

Seth and Shawna’s wedding was truly beautiful and I hope to film at Crystal Springs again in the future.
