The Art of Weddings Bridal Show - This Thursday Evening!!!!

2012-01-18T13:00:00.000-08:00

A swankier kind of bridal show, The Art of Weddings was created over eight years ago to bring something fresh and unique to engaged couples.

Tomorrow night, Pure Space Portland will be filled with many of Portland’s finest wedding vendors! Starting at 6:00 PM, the first 150 brides through the door with standard tickets will receive a gift bag and everyone through the door will receive a ticket to redeem for one wine sample courtesy of Abbey Creek Vineyard. If you want pre-entry to the event at 5:00 PM, an extra fabulous gift bag, a reserved seat for the fashion show and a complimentary signature cocktail, make sure you order your VIP ticket soon! There isn’t much time left to buy your tickets online, which is the best way to save time and money. Save $10 on VIP tickets if you enter the SPECIAL CODE: congrats before 11:00 PM tonight (January 18th).

Watch highlights from the 2011 show below. We look forward to seeing you at the January 19th, 2012 from 6-9:30pm at Pure Space Portland for the swankiest bridal show in town!

Great Article on Newlyweds Regrets...

2012-01-11T23:28:00.000-08:00

Just stumbled across this great article over at onewed.com and not budgeting for professional videography got top billing as the thing newlyweds regretted most from their wedding! See the excerpt below and click here to see the full article!

#1 Regret:

"Get It On Film
So many brides told us they wished they’d sprung for a videographer, or given their wedding photographer more specific directions. Your wedding will be RIFE with special moments - make sure you capture as many as possible!

"My husband and I really regret not recording the speeches. They were so loving and beautiful, we were moved to tears again and again! It's one of the best memories I have of that day and I wish we had a better record of all the kind things our family and friends had to say. A few gave us their typed notes but most strayed and added in some great anecdotes. Nothing about hair/makeup/venue or cakes mattered to me once I realized there were so many people there who loved us so much!" - Isabella"

Of course we couldn't agree more! If you are planning your wedding we would love to talk with you about how we capture your most important moments from your wedding day!

Amber & Shaun's Love Story + Same Day Edit, Portland & Zenith Vineyard Salem, OR

2011-05-03T15:21:00.000-07:00

Wow! What a great wedding last Saturday! Amber and Shaun met at their friends Jessie and Blake's wedding several years ago that we captured and also produced a Same Day Edit for.

When Amber first met with us she was very interested in getting a Love Story video produced to show at their reception along with a Same Day Edit and hoped that we by some chance had some footage of her and Shaun on the dance floor from their friend's wedding that could be used to tell their story. We immediately scoured our archives and were happy to discover that we had plenty to use.

Thank you so much Amber and Shaun, for having us along to be part of such an important day. Amanda and I wish you two and the puppies all the best!

Please enjoy their Love Story and their Same Day Edit below.

On March 26th, 2011, Northwest Chevy Dealers built the "Chevy Capture the Cruze" trek on SCVNGR all through the downtown Portland. This trek had people going places, doing challenges and earning points. The challenges asked people to solve location-based riddles, take photos and more! The top scorer at the end of the day came away with the keys to a 2011 Chevy Cruze.

We were happy to get to be there to capture the excitement of the event and, of course, to see a wonderful couple win a sparkling new car!

Patti & Phil's Love Story - Portland, Oregon

2010-12-03T21:51:00.000-08:00

A couple of months ago we were asked to help grant the first wish for Wish Upon A Wedding's Portland chapter.

From the Wish Upon A Wedding website:
Wish Upon a Wedding is the world’s first nonprofit wish granting organization providing weddings and vow renewals for couples facing terminal illness and serious life-altering circumstances, regardless of sexual orientation. Often, couples facing such situations do not have the energy, time, money, or resources needed to plan their wedding. Our organization takes care of all the details, offering couples a chance to relax and enjoy a very special day while surrounded by the love of their closest family and friends.

Getting to know Patti and Phil and seeing how incredibly loving, happy and playful they are with each other and their daughter Gracee has been an inspirational experience for us. We wish them all the best in their new life together.

Wish Upon a Wedding is the world’s first nonprofit wish granting organization providing weddings and vow renewals for couples facing terminal illness and serious life-altering circumstances, regardless of sexual orientation.

By celebrating the courage & spirit of these couples, WUW helps create lasting memories that will be cherished for years to come. It is our hope that others facing similar situations will find hope, strength, and the promise of eternal love. Officially launched in January of 2010, Wish Upon a Wedding currently has over a dozen chapters to serve Wish Applicants.

2010 WEVA Creative Excellence Award Winner!!

2010-08-27T18:14:00.000-07:00

We just found out that we won a 2010 WEVA (Wedding and Event Videographers Association) Creative Excellence Award!! We were selected for Kori and Aric's Engagement Film (Love Story video category) that debuted at their wedding last September. We had a lot of fun hanging out with them and creating such an important keepsake for them to take with them thru their lives together. The great thing about winning for a film like this that it not only speaks to our creativity in cinematography and editing... but more so, it is an award for ability to tell our clients stories in a fun and engaging way. We take great pride in the way we tell each couple and clients story.

Having also won in 2008 for our Bridal Elegance Film, we are now the only videography company in the Pacific Northwest to win these prestigious and incredibly competitive awards over the last 3 years. There is no higher industry honor. For wedding and event videographers, these are our Academy Awards.

We are extremely honored to be recognized as the company that is raising the bar and setting the standard for wedding cinematography in the Pacific Northwest.

Check out Kori and Aric's Award winning Love Story again if you missed it the first time around. :)

Celina and Joe were married at the Abernethy Center in Oregon City, Oregon.

In the end our lighting was perfect and the day went as smooth as you can ever hope.

We also finally got the chance to work with our friends Jos and Tree from JOS photographers and the creativity and atmosphere they inspired made for a memorable day and experience that we are looking forward to building upon in the future. Master of ceremonies was the ever classy Shawn Whittemore with Event Team as well as the Abernethy Center.

Libby & Brian's Wedding Trailer from The Benson Hotel in Portland, Oregon

2010-05-02T23:54:00.000-07:00

Libby & Brian were married in a beautiful intimate ceremony at the beautiful and historic Benson Hotel. Sometimes it's not the number of guests that make a wedding intimate, it's what is shared and what is said. The special, heartfelt words that the participants spoke at the ceremony were unwritten and unrehearsed in advance. Their love for God and one another was powerful and undeniable as they spontaneously shared their love and sincere promises to one another.

Amanda and I were honored to be there to capture such an important moment in their lives together.

It was great to work with the talented Leigh Germy from Atlanta, Georgia. Be sure to check out her beautiful photographs of Libby & Brian from around Portland the day after the wedding. Handling all the musical needs throughout the day was the multi-talented John Ross. Not only did he sing and play guitar beautifully during the ceremony while being accompanied by an accomplished violinist, he seamlessly shifted into DJ mode for the reception. His talent and professionalism made for a smooth and memorable day.

We hope you enjoy Libby & Brian's Wedding Trailer.

Amber & Steev's Wedding Trailer from Santa Cruz California

2010-04-30T02:23:00.000-07:00

Amber and Steev were married on a cliff overlooking the beach in Santa Cruz, California. The reception was just across the road at the Davenport Roadhouse where they created a wedding experience unlike any we've ever filmed. From jugglers, to contortionists, to face painting, to a delicious custom designed Barnum Circus Animal Cookie cake... Every detail was specific in meaning and emotion to ensure this day was a reflection of their love for each other and their unique and creative personalities.

Full disclosure... I've known Steev for about 25 years... He's been one of my closest friends and the most influential force on my creativity throughout my life. From my first guitar lessons to recording engineering to inspiring me to be a filmmaker. He's been the ignition that started the fires of obsession for my creative endeavors.

One of my proudest moments was when he asked us to film their wedding. One of my happiest moments was being there as he married the woman he waited so long to meet.

Please enjoy this brief glimpse into their incredible wedding day.

What our Clients are saying!

We don't solicit testimonials. Below are some of the pure unbridled, heartfelt comments our clients have shared with us after watching the wedding films we created for them!

"I can't let another day go by without letting you know how absolutely thrilled we are with our daughter and son-in-laws's wedding video. It is such a treasure to be able to actually see that wonderful occasion all over again and the quality is just outstanding. We laugh now when we recall looking over the budget and seeing the photographer AND the videographer and privately questioning the need for BOTH! But we trusted the bride and groom's judgment and we are so happy we did!
Thanks again on a great job---we will treasure it always!
Kind regards,
Carolyn and Gary (Parents of the Bride)"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hi Scott and Amanda! On the road headed back to Cali. We have watched our video 10 times or so already. We freaking love it! You guys outdid yourselves once again and have left us with the most amazing gift that we will cherish forever. Thank you just doesn't express how grateful we are to the two of you... It's beautiful, timeless and captures the true essence of our wedding day. Yes, we bawled like babies. ;)
Will be in touch very soon. We love our final edit so much, looking forward to our next big life event so we can make you a part of it.
It was so wonderful to see you again and meet your lovely Lexi! We wish you all great things and a blessed life. You have added so much joy to ours, we only hope that someday we can return it to you.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Matt n Sal"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Scott & Amanda-
Thank you is not adequate for the wonderful job you did on our daughter & son-in-law's wedding videography! You both are fantastic to work with & you are such professionals!! Thanks again for EVERYTHING you did in making our wedding complete! Love & Blessings!
Kellie & Dave

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Scott,
All I can say is oh my goodness!!! We just watched the trailer and sat in awe. It was amazing and you captured so much of the emotion we felt like we were living through it again! Thank you so much, I don't know how to tell you how much we truly appreciate all that you did and captured, we cannot wait to see the longer version! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Molly and Eric"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hi Scott & Amanda-

Well, I don’t think our wedding film DVD has stopped spinning in the DVD player since we got it! It has been making the rounds of various family members and even our parents’ neighbors!

The film is just beautiful! John and I both thought we remembered the day so well, but after watching the DVD we clearly didn’t remember it all. It was also special to watch scenes and have all those feelings come to the surface again.

But perhaps the most special thing is seeing my grandma on video – she passed away in March, and we don’t have any video of her. Seeing her walking down the aisle, walking arm and arm with my granddad was a surprise and just so special – it is truly a treasured scene for all of our family.

John and I wanted to just say thanks for creating our wedding film – I was so pleased with how our wedding turned out, but I didn’t it remember it being that beautiful!

Thanks so much!
Jane & John"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"We wanted to thank you and Amanda from the bottom of our hearts for the amazing video you created for us. Heartfelt, beautiful, and classic! You captured all those moments and precious expressions that we were way too distracted to notice or appreciate on our very busy wedding day. Thank you so much for your attention to detail, perfectionism, and artistic approach. You didn't miss a thing. We have watched the video over and over, and will love and treasure it for years to come. We will recommend you to all our friends and relatives, you really were great to work with and that alone is a huge blessing when planning an event. By far, your service is the best we have seen. We are so grateful we chose you to capture our special day on video, and even more grateful we chose you as a vendor to produce it for us. We cannot sing your praises enough.
Thank you so much!

Sincerely,
Susan and Kevin"

"Dear Scott and Amanda - We are on the road and traveling home from our most amazing weekend, so please excuse our very informal and impromptu email.
I just had to write you as we have been gloating and absolutely emotional about our experiences the other night. We don't know how to properly thank you...

What you guys did for us was beyond one of the best gifts we ever could have ever received, besides the loving energy, support and camaraderie we witnessed. We struggled with the whole "budget factor" when booking you as well as everyone questioning our decision to hire a "videographer." We knew we had made the best choice as your work made us cry every time we watched it... and we truly enjoyed and appreciated your talent.

We never could have imagined - beyond our wildest dreams, or even with the work you have previously displayed, how touching, beautiful and exciting you could have portrayed our day. YOU GUYS ROCK!!!
That moment of our reception was the climatic point of our night. We cannot even tell you how many calls, emails, and text messages we have had from our friends and family wondering who you are and where they can reach you... Our extended family lives in Portland - they are all passing your name on to their friends, as well as long distance possibilities...
EVERYONE says it was THE BEST WEDDING EVER - due to the loving energy and YOUR AMAZING VIDEO. :)

Thank you soooo very much for capturing us and the blessed friends and family that our lives are so fully enriched with. We will forever turn everyone we know your way.... and our only hope is that you feel the love, you displayed, that we share, in your lives everyday. God bless you both!!!

The two of you were so generous, gracious and sweet and our lives have become so enriched by coming into contact with you.
We cannot wait to see our same day edit again...
Please let us know when it is posted as we have had everyone calling us wanting to watch it again - and we can't stand it ourselves.

From the bottom of our grateful hearts - "Mr. and Mrs." Matt & Sally Martin
"simply" - THANK YOU!!!"

"Thank you, Scott & Amanda, for creating this beautiful film for us and our families and friends to enjoy and remember! We love how we get to relive our wedding day each time we watch it. We've lost track of how many times we've watched our Same Day Edit!!! It is so BEAUTIFUL! Again, thank you so much! It has been a pleasure working with you both! YOU GUYS ROCK!!! -Riza & Wayne"

"Hi Scott-

Just a quick note to let you know how much we enjoyed our wedding film! We didn't get to start it until pretty late last night or I think I might have watched it again right away! I'm sure Jeff will love coming home every night to hearing me watching the video again and again :) haha. You guys did an amazing job capturing all of the fun and memorable moments and watching it last night made us want to do it all over again. We're so excited to show it to our parents and we decided we're definitely going to have to watch it every anniversary....

thanks again!
Danielle & Jeff"

"Scott and Amanda, We cannot express in words how grateful and impressed we both were with the work you did at our wedding. Jason has been saying that "Scott is the master of being incognito." We hardly noticed that you guys were there, yet you seemed to have captured EVERYTHING from our very special day. I am looking forward to seeing it all put together to see all the things I missed. I have seen the great work you have done using the rings and the invitation and am intrigued to see what you came up with for ours. We will/have been talking you guys up and have heard RAVE reviews from our friends and family who were there to see the same day edit you created. I was truly blown away at how beautifully you put that together. I am eager to see it again! Both of us knew we felt comfortable with you as one of our vendors, but we truly had NO IDEA how blown away we would be with the actual product. For any bride who is out there looking to capture lasting memories of this day...you stand out hands down and she should look no further. We were also very impressed with how well you worked with our photographer capturing the moments you needed and allowing him to work freely...you along with Michael Hacker are an unbeatable team!!! Thank you so very much from the bottom of our hearts. ~Jason and Brianna!!"

Dear Scott & Amanda-

We wanted to let you know impressed we are with our wedding video!

The quality of work you do is really in a league of it's own. We were already impressed w/the "highlight" you put together immediately after the wedding & couldn't really imagine that the actual video was going to be much better! ...Wow, you guys! You captured our day so perfectly and we so appreciate all the extra footage & effort you both personally put in.

THANK YOU!!!

We are truly blown-away & can't wait to share with our friends/ family. (The other couple will be so jealous they didn't hire you guys, too...)

-Dorothy"

"Thank you so much for putting together an absolutely beautiful wedding video for our daughter and her husband. I have spent hours sharing their special moment with so many friends and family members. It truly is like time has stopped and those special moments are there again. Thanks again for your outstanding piece of video.

"Scott,

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! You have exceeded my expectations and I can't even put into words how I feel. Of course I cried while viewing the preparations and want to marry Aaron all over again :)

Thanks for capturing the day in the fashion you did!!!

Best, Carrie

I'm just thankful that my parents were kind enough to hire a professional, such as yourself, to capture the best day of my life :)"
