Hello to everyone following us in our blog! We would to share once again a beautiful wedding Movie Trailer from early this year before we say “bye” to the 2011. The beautiful wedding took place in Bella Collina Golf Club.

Congrats to Clarissa & Jonathan!!!

Thank you to all the couples for let us have an incredible year!!

Happy New Year!!

[ Sepideh & Ryan ] The wedding Story in Sarasota Florida.

Dear Friends!!

Katherine & Ray a Global Crossing Wedding Story from NYC to Taiwan.

Discipline is one of those things we try to keep every time we create a wedding movie piece for our couples.  The amount of work traveling, shooting and editing weddings is compensated when we experience the reaction and satisfaction of our clients. In this occasion the project went to a new different level. Two different day events with two different locations separated by over 10,000 miles of distance. Also in top of that the real challenge of presenting their trailer in the last event including both days (NYC and Taiwan). Almost 400 guests in Taiwan enjoyed the preview of their wedding movie showcasing a taste of the New York event combined with the last Taiwan event. Honored to get such a positive feedback from everyone in Taipei and not forgetting the first class treatment received since day one in Taiwan by the couple, family together with friends.

Feels like now we have another new home at the other side of the world!!

Now for our web viewers we are presenting the trailer of the wedding movie shown in our Taiwan 11-11-11 wedding event.

Thank you so much!!

Noelia & Daniel / A beautiful wedding in the majestic Lanzarote Canary Island, Spain (Same Day Edit).

This year has been full loaded of blessings and intense work. Every time we produce a Same Day Edit is a new challenge and also a new satisfaction with the results. This time was not the exception when we moved quick overseas to the stunning destination of Lanzarote Canary Island, Spain. This couple stole my attention from the first minute. They made us feel like we were friends, their personalities are awesome and made my work so easy even when I was shooting a wedding a bit different of our American Weddings. The reception event was held in the house of the Bride and a lot of family, friends and Spain personalities were attending to be part of the main event. Next day the local newspaper had the article where they said “It was the wedding of the year” in Lanzarote. I was not surprise at all cause the truth is these two are very real and in love. You can see it from miles away.

That’s what matters in the end!

Anna & Judson / Beautiful Wedding (Same Day Edit) in Georgia.

There is nothing better than charging in full mode our “Batteries” when we have to produce these Same Day Edits and receive positive feedback of the clients that same day of the wedding event. Thank you!! This is what even their wedding photographer said after watching the SDE that night! :)

“Yes, I can attest, the same-day edit was a HUGE HIT! Mother cried, sister cried, people laughed and cried more, everyone got so emotional and it was a great ending for a beautiful wedding! Great job, Jose, great job, as always!!!”

Thank you to Nadia D Photography for that testimonial!

For us is always a pleasure to bring the best of us and we know how much our clients appreciate our hard work. Thank you Anna and Judson (Including all their family and friends) for trusting 100% in us!!!

PS

Check what a first look set up by this couple!! Not to forget the stunning wedding location in the Historic Ruins at Barnsley Gardens, Adairsville, Georgia.

Ammar / Saherish “A Pakistani Wedding in the beautiful Vancouver Canada”

This destination wedding could not be more perfect. We had the opportunity of film and produce the movie trailer of Ammar & Saherish wedding story to be shown on their last event. Not bad at all to shoot in the beautiful Vancouver Canada in summer with an average temperature of 68 F degrees. Their families treat us with an awesome hospitality from Day one and made us feel close and part of all the events in our almost one week stay. We had the chance to shoot on different places in the city for the final movie production. Too bad not all the outdoors shots were shown on the Trailer preview due to time constrain of presenting the Movie Trailer in front of guests at the last event. We could not ask for more! We were even picked at the Canada Airport to go to the hotel by a Limo! Thank you guys but for sure not necessary!! hehe!! :)

I hope friends out there like this preview of their story!!

The “Mano a Mano” 2011 workshop for wedding filmmakers continues with Jose Ortiz.


Jose Ortiz is on the July front cover of the most known wedding event cinematographers magazine.

It is always an honor to have the top respect of the the industry. This is our passion and we continue working hard to bring the best of us for our wedding-event clients and industry partners following our work. Thank you Even DV for let us share our skills with the rest of the wedding video industry.

From the article….

“It seemed almost too good to be true: three top award-winning filmmakers,  combining their talents on three Florida weddings. In our industry of one-man (and one-woman) bands, our chances to collaborate and learn from others’ talents come far too seldom, but here’s what three world top filmmakers learned when they worked together this past spring, both in terms of how they approach their work and the power of collaboration itself.”

Nadia & Adil Indian wedding Movie Trailer


We always feel honored when the clients appreciate the hard work our wedding cinematography.

We totally enjoy filming these Indian weddings events and eventually having the chance to share with the guests and vendors the final product. Here is a preview of Nadia and Adil wedding celebration experience.
Enjoy it!!

Aishah & Faseeh Beautiful Indian Wedding at Ritz Carlton Sarasota (Same Day Edit Movie)

One of the most exciting things about our job is getting to experience so many different cultures. When we first met Aishah at the studio, we immediately connected. The only problem at that time, was that we had no sample of an Indian wedding to display. Nevertheless, Aishah put her trust in us (just based on the other amazing films we displayed) and invited us to her amazing wedding at The Ritz Carlton Hotel in Sarasota, Florida. I was very excited about the Same Day Edit we would produce, because I knew there would be over 400 guests in the room that would be completely blown away by the film we were going to display at their reception on the 3rd day of the event. I have to say, we are truly humbled and honored to be able to collaborate with some of the top wedding and event filmmakers in the world. For this grand event, we invited the one and only, Antonio Domingo (Reflejos Digitales), who flew all the way from Spain to assist us with the shoot.  Needless to say, together we were able to produce stunning imagery, which I hope you enjoy in the film below. A BIG thank you to all the great vendors and coordinators that made our work so much easier.

And a special thank you to the amazing bride and groom..Aishah and Faseeh!!! Thank you for trusting us with your memories! You truly made us feel like family!

thank you

Jose Ortiz filming a concept promo of TV Movie Celebrity Mario Lopez.

It is amazing the skills sometimes  we can develop as event filmmakers shooting  weddings. Our ability to tell stories of real people in  different situations is without a doubt a plus in our business. This practice makes our work more easy going when we are filming for a client something a bit different to what we normally do. From the beginning I knew it would be a great experience filming a promo clip for the TV Celebrity and Movie Star Mario Lopez. This time we loved the freedom we had to come up with our own shoot ideas including the questions to ask him during the interview section as part of his final promo. Mario is a very humble guy, professional and very proud of his Latino roots. I can not forget to mention how easy is every time you work with someone so familiar to the cameras and with such a great personality.  We went from shooting an interview to film interactions with his fans attending an exclusive presentation.  After that we continued filming other scenes of him like throwing the first ball in a NY Yankees game. Of course… we can’t let behind  the coverage at the end of the day of some night time celebrity style party with red carpet included! The staff of producers were great and they supported me on any suggestion made during the entire day shooting. Honored to work on this project and try something new and different every day.

Nicole + Jonathon Wedding Movie Trailer

We all know that a wedding day is full of emotions and happiness but also nervousness. Even though they were planning the wedding from long time ago. When we met Nicole and Jonathon we knew their wedding would be a great story. It is amazing how we can connect with people’s feelings when we film their wedding day. It is so much positive energy and good vibration around that day. For example like when the groom can’t contain himself when he see the bride for the first time. The following story is a good example of that.

Congratulations guys and thanks for let us be part of  such important day in your lifes!!
