Something that's becoming a theme with my couples is wanting to celebrate not just their marriage, but their community as well, and this whole weekend was so grounded in community. Matt and Allie couldn't believe how many of their people flew in, that they stayed out partying until 4am on their wedding night because they don't want to waste a second of their friends and family all being together.
I love this group of people so dang much. I love when your friends and family start to feel like my own. And I love when I can have fun alongside you guys and experience these moments with you, because then we get films like this.
“Find somebody that you love, love them with all your might and all your heart, and God will take care of you.” 🤍
A spring wedding weekend straight out of my dreams!! Absolute joy everywhere you looked. The Callands took backyard wedding to a whole new level when they completely transformed their ranch into one of the most gorgeous backdrops I’ve ever seen. It’s one of those days that I can tell will be stuck in my brain for a long time, absolutely perfect in its own unique and wonderful way.
I left Annie and Cole’s spring wedding feeling genuinely renewed as an artist. This day was such a breath of fresh air and the joy was palpable between these two families. Annie and Cole remained so present throughout the entire day, which is my favorite thing because then we get to step into that moment with you and capture everything as it really happened.
Annie and Cole, you guys are forever favorites in my heart and I love, love, love what we created together.
The first thing Val and David told me about their wedding was that they wanted it to be "a giant party for all of our friends and family" - and I can safely say they accomplished that goal.
This beachside wedding was one of my favorites EVER - and not just because Val kept trying to give me margaritas. It was a whole weekend of fun and laughter, happy crying, tons of dancing, and everyone fully living in the moment. It truly was like we left the rest of the world behind to be fully present with Val and David to celebrate them to the fullest.
Kennedy inquired with me before she and Brian were even engaged. She said, and I quote, "Way before the wedding planning even started, I have dreamt of my video."
Ken and Brian, y'all will hold a special place in my heart forever. Thank you for choosing me to be a small part of this time in your lives from beginning to end, thank you for letting me in and trusting me so fully with your story, and thank you for letting me create one of my favorite films to date.
Nick and Minh's film was one that I started and stopped, put down and came back to, because I felt this intense responsibility to get it right. This wedding had so many important touchstones for them, from the cultural traditions they incorporated, to the performances at the reception, to the overall celebration of everything it means to be getting married as two gay men. This wedding was joyous, touching, meaningful, and so authentically them.
"We spent all of last night watching our films and I am NOT OKAY. I don't know what sorcery you put in this, the mixing of the songs and all of the speeches, but that was seriously incredible - like way more than what we expected.
I spent all last night crying and laughing and reliving the best day. Our family and friends are obsessed and are saying they haven't ever seen a video like this, that it feels like a Netflix film. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!"
