On May 1, 2010, Emily and Dan were married at the Cabo Azul Resort in San Jose del Cabo, Mexico. We captured the wonderful 2-day event (rehearsal dinner & wedding day) in this Long Feature Edit.

We cannot say enough about how much fun it was to work with Emily and Dan and their family and friends. That, along with the spectacular wedding location – Cabo Azul, and working with Jenny & Zac of Jenny Hill Photography, made for a great time.

Hope you enjoy their film.

After shooting Emily + Dan’s wedding at Cabo Azul Resort in San Jose del Cabo, Susan and I switched hotels for a few days of rest and relaxation in the Cabo sun. We moved to Dreams Los Cabos Suites, an amazing resort with amazing people. It was a very relaxing time and a nice break from the long, cold northwest winter/spring.

Above is a timelapse I set up one evening from our balcony (Room #4409), that starts around 10:30pm and ends the next morning around 7. I had to change the battery pack a couple of times early in the morning, as you’ll notice a couple of small camera movements.

Here’s a couple of photos of our stay…this is pretty much where we spent most of our time.

The architecture around the resort was amazing. This is one of our favorite courtyards.

We rarely come out from behind the camera, but here we are just before dinner our last night there.

I don’t think you’ll have to twist our arms to get us to come back, so if you’re planning a wedding in Cabo, let us know.

Emily and Dan got married on May 1, 2010 at Cabo Azul Resort in San Jose del Cabo, Mexico.

It was an amazing wedding, at an amazing wedding venue with amazing people.

It was so much fun capturing the day, along with Jenny & Zac of Jenny Hill Photography. Check out a few initial photos Jenny posted from the rehearsal dinner and a quick photo shoot we did with Emily and Dan.

Thanks to Emily and Dan and all their family and friends for making us feel such a part of the day! Hope you enjoy the trailer.

Heather and Johnny’s amazing wedding took place the Sunday after Thanksgiving. The ceremony and reception took place at Calamigos Ranch in Malibu, California. It was a great place to shoot, offering many aesthetically pleasing locations as backdrops. Heather and Johnny were so much fun to work with – always smiling and genuinely enjoying their day. The reception (party), as you’ll see towards the end of the video, was amazing – thanks to DJ Kris of DJFX Entertainment.

Here’s also a look at their Love Story, which we filmed in Santa Monica. It played at their reception night, 2 days later.

Thanks to Heather, Johnny and both their families for making this a fun trip for us. Hope you enjoy the film!

We don’t normally turn out trailers the day after the wedding, but since our flight from Los Angeles to Eugene got bumped, we had a few hours on our hands, and what better way to spend that time than putting together a trailer.

Here’s a quick look – a wedding day teaser – from Heather and Johnny’s wedding yesterday at Calamigos Ranch in Malibu, California.

Again, it was great meeting and working with photographer, Paul Thompson of Huntington House House Photography, their event coordinator, Mindy Roderick, Kim-Erin Justice, their florist and their DJ Kris of DJFX Entertainment.

Here’s also a look at their Love Story, which we filmed Friday. It played at their reception last night.

Thanks to Heather, Johnny and both their families for making this a fun trip for us. Hope you enjoy the trailer.

    Stunning. If this is what you can put together during a unexpected layover in an airport lobby then I can not WAIT to see the full length video. It truly was a pleasure meeting both of you.

I got the chance to shoot another old friends wedding film in Portland earlier this year as well, Aaron and I met at a christian music festival called TomFest back in the day. Aaron is a great filmmaker in his own right, and we dig the same music, we went on to work on a couple of video projects together for Michael Knott. Aaron is an outstanding individual, then he finally met his match in Lyndsay…what a fantastic couple and I also had an opportunity to work with their photographer Jelani Memory, here are a couple of shots of Jelani’s from the gig and thanks to both Aaron & Lindsay for their friendship and collaborative spirit.

We were invited this past weekend to showcase our films at a wedding show in Bend Oregon at the Tower Theatre check it out as a cool retro Bend venue for your wedding. Kerry & Sara at Events By Mint of course put on an incredible show, if you are in the Bend area, talk to Mint for over the top event coordination. We introduced the SDE to a lot of new brides and grooms and everyone was really into it. It was also great meeting lots of other Bend vendors at the show, thanks to all of you for making the Tower event a success….check out a few shots from downtown Bend.

Last Friday, Todd and I make a quick trip over to Central Oregon to produce a promotional video for a new wedding site near Sunriver, Oregon. 

Ghost Rock Ranch is a unique location with plenty of charm, a dose of the “cowboy” feel and some amazing views. We’d highly recommend this site for anyone looking to Bend as a destination wedding. Taken from their website, here’s a few amenities offered at Ghost Rock Ranch:

 

  •  Horse drawn carriage for the bride’s entrance or special events.
  •  Spectacular views for photos
  •  Deck at the pond
  •  Deck off the house
  •  Endless choices for entertainment location
  •  Accommodations for a limited number from the wedding party
  •  Industrial kitchen ideally suited for caterers
  •  

    We arrived early afternoon on Friday, shot some footage in and around the lodge, then headed back to edit a video together that would play at their Grand Opening the next day.

    The main thing we love at VWF is working with couples to create the best wedding film possible. A close second to that (behind the actual “art” of creating such films) is getting to travel to cool places. It’s mostly the Pacific Northwest, which, we think, is one of the coolest regions in the country, but occasionally it’s to some place like….the Bahamas, Paradise Island. Below are some pics of me filming (the day before, and during the ceremony) at a recent wedding in the Bahamas. Thanks to Glen at Aperture Photographics for the pics.

    Reno Baby!

    Thats what we do. By plane, train or automobile, we go where the action is at. Recently that just happened to be Reno, Nevada, shooting a wedding film for Katie & Kyle. This wedding film project was a collaboration with our Portland Oregon friends, Whitney and Dan over at www.blissstudio.net we had the pleasure of shooting their wedding film in Portland a few years back, check them out for some innovative wedding photography. Thanks for lending us a few stills for the Vivid Wedding Films blog guys, nice work as usual!

    We will post some footage of the Katie & Kyle film once it hits the editing room. They were great to work with, because they understood the importance of setting ample time aside in their busy wedding day for both great videography and photography, the two go hand in hand. They left capturing the images of the day to us, and did exactly what every couple should do on their wedding day…..BREATHE DEEP & ENJOY IT! Thanks for showing us the beautiful state of Nevada on a crisp fall day.

    We recently returned from the beautiful state of Colorado where we had the privilege to shoot Annie and Andy’s wedding. It took place just outside of Denver in the city of Golden. A very nice little city and a beautiful fall day for a wedding.

    I’ll post more after we get more done in the editing room. We’re starting to plow through our “end of summer/early fall” weddings and hope to get most of them done soon after the new year. It’s been an eventful year for Vivid and we’re looking forward already to 2008!
