October 2007

I have to say it’s sad when I finalize a project and ship the last DVD’s out to the couple. That’s the theme of these last few weeks - I bid farewell to Hidee & Gill, Meagan & Gareth (see clips below), and so many others (below and not mentioned yet). The special part about Amber and Chris was not only their ceremony, which they wrote letters to each other to be read by the JP - never before read, seen, or heard by anyone else including them until their special day….but Amber (Inbar) had family fly in from Israel and all over the world. The energy the put into this June celebration is not to be forgotten. Chris and Amber also made a CD for me of songs that chronologically went along with their relationship, and I was able to incorporate most of the CD into the video in that order, which made it even more special for them to relive! That’s the part I love about my job, recreating the moments and memories with input from you, to make it even more meaningful! Amber & Chris got the “Best-Best Men Speech of the Year Award” from me in a previous post. Here is a small clip from their photo shoot at Jackson Falls.

Meg,

Again, you are awesome! Everything sounds great. The names are correct, your ideas are great, you are great! I’ve already seen the video like 20 times and most of our relatives have already seen the proof. I sent a copy to my grandmother and other relatives from Israel that couldn’t come to the wedding and they thought it was amazing. They felt like they were there. And, BTW, Youtube has had almost 200 hits!

I am so excited to get the final copies. so far, everyone we have showed the video to has asked us to make a copy for them (I can’t imagine why anyone would need and/or want a copy of someone else’s wedding). I think it is a testiment to how amazing the video is!!!! I can’t thank you enough for all of your hard work in putting this together. We are so thankful that we found you and we will think of you as we watch the video over and over (and over and over) for many more years to come!

Best,
Amber

This wonderful email came in from Renna and Keith. It’s so great to hear from couples and to know I’ve been a part of their special celebration.

Hi Meg,

We just got back from our honeymoon. Discs were here
when we got home. Couldn’t wait to see the pics.

You did an absolutely amazing job. We couldn’t be
happier with the pictures.

Thank you for all you did. You were just perfect.

Once again thank you,
Renee and Keith

There will be more where this came from! UNREAL SEA OF COLORS! Thank you Badger Realty - Thank you Ned Sullivan!!

Renee & Keith, October 7, 2007 at the Grand Summit Hotel at Attitash. A colorful small intimate celebration as the two families became one. The girls were so excited to finally be “sisters” and are in the same grade in school. The sun was bright that day and fall leaves were turning. Renna & Keith didn’t want the bells and whistles just fun candid’s and some posed photos.

Hidee and Gil got married April 14, 2007 and I just received an email from Hidee that this was her favorite dance section of the video, so I wanted to share. I love all the expressions and dancing talents of her family who came from all over the US and beyond to celebrate. Hidee had so much great dance footage she wanted to condense it and blend the natural sound into the actual song and make a montage of some of the spanish/latin dancing.

Caitlin and Brian Shea celebrated on 8/25/07 at the Smith Meeting House in Gilmanton, NH. A beautiful day in a unique setting. Rumors of a huge storm had spread, and there was no escaping the freak downpour during dinner, passing just in time for an amazing display by the Altas PyroVision Production Team. So much attention to detail went into planning as Caitlin and her mom prepared. Amy Piper from Signature events was the wedding coordinator, the Red Blazer in Concord did the catering. These are just a few detail shots - each guest got their own SPARKLERS! So I did my best to spell SHEA in a 6 second exposure.
