KC Bridal Spectacular - 1.10.09

We will be at the Bridal Spectacular this Saturday, Jan 10! This is our 7th year at this show - hard to believe it has been that long! It a great opportunity to see LOTS of vendors for some great ideas and inspiration. I look forward to meeting lots of great couples, and do one of my favorite things, visit with so many of my friends in the business! So if you are looking for something to do tomorrow, come on out to The Overland Park Convention Center and visit us at Booth 337! Sam and I would love to visit with you!

Jennifer and Matthew

I am always so flattered to be asked to create a wedding video for a family that I have worked with in the past. Jen and Matt were wonderful, and it was such an honor to create your video. I shot Jennifer's sisters video several years ago, as well as her cousin's wedding too! Jen and Matt chose some great music that I haven't edited to before and it was a treat! Thanks guys and I look forward to seeing you at the next family wedding!

Bridget and Bryan

WOW! I have to say that I think Starlight is my latest favorite location! Just getting to shoot video under professional lighting and in this space is amazing! Bridget and Bryan are the best couple and you can just feel the love and friendship when you watch this long highlight. This is close to a short film in many ways - lots of great audio is used throughout - it is just lovely! Thanks Bridget and Bryan for your patience with the HD editing - it turned out great!

How fun to have a sneak peek into the wedding video! This was a beautiful wedding that I shot just this Saturday! We had a wonderful time with this couple - it was such a special day.

New Studio News

I am very excited to announce that our new studio is ready to go! Sort of. I met with my first client up there last night and it was wonderful! The viewing/proofing room is done, and the photo studio is about finished. Cole and I were up there this morning painting one more room, and then we just have that floor to put down. It is so exciting to see this growth - I am equally excited about the new technology of HD and editing/shooting techniques that will be part of the new 09 packages for next year!!!

My computer has been compressing like mad to get these two HD projects completed - the quality of HD is really amazing, even when put to DVD. The first blu-ray discs should be finished in the next week or so, and it will be exciting to see how that looks in the new studio space!

Hope everyone has a great election day!
