Vivid Wedding Films

What an amazing day yesterday for Meredith and Mark’s wedding. It was a great experience and everything was beautiful, from Meredith, Mark, wedding party and First Christian Church to the reception at Valley River Inn. (I’ve heard rumor that the food was great also, but I wouldn’t know first hand as we were under the gun to get the Same Day Edit finished). 

Thanks to Brittney at the Valley River Inn, Elaine of First Christian Church and photographers, Aaron and Amber of New Morning Photography, for being great to work with.

Below, are a couple of stills pulled from the video. We’ll have the same day edit within a couple of hours – it’s encoding now.

This wedding season was one of the most epic in my history of shooting wedding films. It seems that old friends were getting married off, older friends children were growing up. I had the privilege of working with one of my dearest friends, Greg & Kim Lawless, Greg was one of the first people I clicked with upon my move to Oregon, he played in a band called Adam Again that have I always admired. That was about 12 years ago, well many encouraging conversations and countless cups of dark coffee later. My wife Lorrie and I watched their kids grow up all too quickly, and then this past summer, first their daughter Kelsey, and then their son Ryan took the marital plunge all within a 48 day period. Wow!

Here are a few shots from Kelsey & Kyle’s wedding, we will post some of Ryan & Lauren’s day down the road. One of my favorite things about shooting wedding films is that every couple is different, and those differences always come through in a finished wedding film, from the music to every subtle detail. I am looking forward to hitting the editing suite for my favorite Lawless kids soon.

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.

Thought some of you may enjoy celebrating with us, as Oregon Bride Magazine voted Vivid Wedding Films “Best in the Valley” a couple of years in a row. Our main goal is to produce moving wedding films for our clients, but it is really nice as artists to get recognized once in a while for mastering our chosen craft. Thanks for all of your support over the years.
