Trash the Dress – Dan and Shannon – North San Diego County

Like I’ve said before, I really hate calling these shoots “trash the dress” because many times the dress is not “trashed”. You can trash your dress, but in this case, Shannon did not. I did one of these sessions myself after our wedding and my dress was only a bit dirtier than before! Other things we might call this session would be “after wedding”, “bridal session”, “flaunt the dress” or “bridal elegance” but it seems that the most recognizable name for this kind of shoot is “trash the dress” so it remains 🙂

So we did “trash the dress” shoot with Dan and Shannon and Zelo Photography. I think both the moving and still images turned out great!

Here it is!

Brooke and Brandon – Love Story/Slide Show – North San Diego County

We had an awesome time shooting Brooke and Brandon’s wedding last night at the Maderas Golf Club. One of their events was showing their “love story” video/slide show last night. Now that their wedding has happened, we can share their video with you! Brooke and Brandon really wanted to do something different for their video and we said, “That we can do!!!” They wanted something that really showed their personalities and hobbies while still giving some background to how they met and incorporating some of their friends and throwing in some pictures at the end. We think it turned out pretty funny.

If you’re planning your wedding and want something more than a photo slide show but aren’t sure how to do it, let us know and we’ll help you brainstorm.

So here’s what we came up with, it’s about 12 minutes long so let it load up first.

Brooke and Brandon, we had a great time shooting with you! You were great to work with and your guests loved it!

Stay tuned for their wedding clips coming up!

Lisa and Brent – Teaser Trailer – Prado Balboa Park

Hey everyone,

Lisa and Brent got married March 29th at the Prado in Balboa Park. We shot their engagement session a few weeks back with Zelo in this post. They had a gorgeous ceremony and reception! We will definitely post more on their wedding once we finish the video but for now, here is the teaser trailer to get you started 🙂

I have to say my favorite part is them practicing their first dance out in the courtyard, it’s magical! Actually, I have two favorite parts. I also LOVE that Brent is so happy he’s just laughing as Lisa is coming down the aisle…this couple was definitely happy to be getting married.

Enjoy!

Mixed Media 80th Birthday Slide Show/Video

This family hired us for a birthday slide show but had just done an anniversary slide show 5 years earlier. They had told us that they really wanted to do something different. They figured if it just looked the same, what was the point? So we brainstormed about how we could make this slide show more unique than the typical baby-80 pictures. 

We added some interviews, lots of fun music and text boxes to tell more of a story. I loved the theme of showing pictures of what he was doing in life during the different times of history. It was also really neat that one of their children sang a song for it too!

So, sit back and enjoy a fun slide show/video!

p.s. I “bleeped” out a word at the end for the purposes of the blog but how fun is that, the family really had that in there for this guy’s birthday because they knew he thought it would be funny…
