Funny wedding moment, groom is hilarious.

2012-01-17T16:06:00.000-08:00

The groom must be a comedian because he sure seemed like it judging from this clip. After the bride walks down the aisle, the groom says something really funny, and is acting funny as well. Comedy, hilarious, fun, funny, humor, lol, laugh

Not to be outdone, the son of the bride speaks out as well. It's all pretty funny and laugh a minute wedding video.

Bad wedding moment, bride pissed, angry and upset

2012-01-17T15:57:00.000-08:00

Nothing can make a bride freak out on camera more than having no limo and having no bridesmaids show up. I don't consider this a bridezilla because I was there and I actually agreed with her. In fact, I was surprised she didn't freak out anymore, or start crying or throwing things.

Upset and angry is to be expected when the people that were suppose to be there for you, are not....you can hear my voice in the background trying to console the bride.

No show limousine, no bridesmaids, except for one maid of honor, one groomsman arrives from Seattle with no pants.

I've shot 1000+ weddings and unfortunately, I see this type of thing alot. I think the bride was actually pretty kind when she could have just ripped everyone a new hole. your thoughts?

It's not just the shooting that makes this video above average, it's the editing, and how sound and visuals are choreographed so closely to one another.

Imagine you and your loved ones aboard one of the Empress Events yachts underneath blue skies, the Golden Gate Bridge surrounded by sparkling waters of the Bay sharing this special day together. A San Francisco outdoor wedding on a yacht provides beautiful scenic views of the bay. A boat wedding is the perfect way to show your out-of-town guests how beautiful life on the SF Bay can be.

latest email wedding scam tries to scam wedding videographers

2010-04-01T07:33:00.000-07:00

Wow, these scammers are getting so good. At first glance this email seems real. But read it a couple of times and I'm convinced it's a scam.

Good Evening,

I saw your ad on CL and am interested in your videography services for our wedding on 6/26 in Capitola. Do you have any other wedding samples, that include the speeches and vows? My grandpa is aggressively fighting cancer, and was just diagnosed with a heart condition as well, so my Grandparents will no longer be able to travel to the wedding. We are looking for an option of film to show them when we return to Seattle so that they feel included on our special day. What are your package prices?

Regards, Keely

header = Subject: Craigs List Ad

From: Keely Nelson misskeely@gmail.com

I've seen so many of these emails now that I know this is a scam and I don't even bother to reply. But since this scam seems a little more sophisticated I decided to respond and see what their next steps are. I'm waiting for the response now.

Wente Vineyards Wedding Video first dance

2010-03-05T13:41:00.000-08:00

We're such a lucky bunch to be able to partake in such a fabulous event as a wedding. We get to share our clients most wonderful day with them. It's no surprise that we do get emotionally involved with our clients and to this day, I have two or so dozen past clients that I keep in contact with.

As you know by now, we shoot in hd wedding videography. As such, the cameras are just absolutely amazing in low light. I'm still amazed to this day how far video cameras have come. Having done this for 20 years now, I started just when video cameras were being transitioned from huge, mammoth shoulder mounted beasts and separate record deck...LOL to smaller handeld camcorders. The result, is that this video, shot in all natural light still looks pretty good. We tend NOT to shine bright lights to disrupt proceedings. We actually prefer more natural look even if that means the video is a little more dark and grainy.

Anywho, Allie and Ignacio got married at the Wente Vineyards in Livermore, CA. I was hired to shoot wedding photography AND wedding videography. I had one of my best videographers out there that day and this footage shows that. As your photographer, one of my main goals is to make sure that the video gets a great shot and a great angle.

If your having your wedding at the Wente Winery in Livermore, please consider us for your photography and video team. You'll get great results.

St Joseph's Cathedral and Fairmont Hotel San Jose

2010-03-05T13:20:00.000-08:00

This wonderful video is hot off the presses. Literally, we just shot the wedding last night! LOL.

Elizabeth and Roy got married in the amazing church of St. Joseph's Cathedral in San Jose, CA. This is a great church to shoot wedding videography. I recommend AT LEAST two videographers, one for the front and one for the back and/or balcony. Three videographers is even better if you want unreal coverage and more editing choices. I normally love to put a videographer up in the balcony, this gives the wedding photographer more room with which to work in the back [i.e., not having to share the back aisle with the videographer]. As for the balcony, I actually feel it's too close and too steep to be a good shot so we usually do not shoot there. As a wedding photographer, I usually take one or two from the balcony. You can see wedding photos from St Joseph Cathedral here.
Their wedding reception was held at the Fairmont Hotel in downtown San Jose, CA. This awesome hotel in the heart of downtown San Jose is a great place to have your wedding. This video clip includes a heart-warming segment in which the Mother of the Groom gives a heart-warming toast to the newly wedded couple. In the video you will see DJ Earl come and save the day as the Mother of the Groom accidentally turns the wireless microphone OFF. Speaking of DJ Earl, he is a great wedding disc jockey...if you find yourself in need of a great wedding DJ please give DJ Earl Joseph a call.

So anyway, this wedding was absolutely wonderful as it combined the very best of American Wedding Traditions with Eastern wedding traditions as the bride is from India. I have a ton of experience doing these types of multi-ethnic weddings. In fact, I published an article about this subject a few years back.

Hats off to the other great wedding vendors that helped make this wedding possible.

Email scam aimed at wedding photographers and videographers

2010-02-15T09:41:00.001-08:00

There is yet another new email scam this time aimed at Wedding Photographers. These emails continue to get increasingly realistic. But upon a second read, you can tell this person barely can knows English. The first clue is that the reply to name is different than the name on the actual email. The other clue is the fact that the email is not specific as to what they want or where the wedding will be. The greeting is not specific to me which means they sent this as spam to many recipients. I can pretty much tell these scams from a mile away, but to the uninitiated they can be somewhat realistic. Please be aware of these and ignore!

Brazilian Room Berkeley CA wedding video vows, rings, sand ceremony

2010-02-12T17:36:00.000-08:00

This is a wedding video, version= short form, that I produced for a wedding ceremony at the Brazilian Room in Berkeley, CA tilden park. This wedding ceremony includes the bridal march, vows, rings, water ceremony, kiss and wedding march. Absent from this version is the seating of the parents and processional. Tilden Park is a very popular place for brides and grooms to get married. I shoot many weddings here at the Brazilian Room. I did 3 weddings there in 2009. This was one such wedding. I hope you like our two videographer/camera coverage of the ceremony. I had placed on videographer at the rear, and one in the front to catch the groom's reaction. During the ceremony the front videographer moved to get the shot of the groom's reaction and saying his vows.

How to shop for a wedding videographer

2009-11-06T10:03:00.000-08:00

We found this great article over at http://www.yourbridalplanner.com on the subject of how to shop for a wedding videographer. Here is the direct link to the page.

http://yourbridalplanner.com/videography.html

We've also asked permission to reprint the article here for your convenience.

THE SAD FACT:

Sadly, wedding videography and the wedding videographer are often un-justly pushed to the bottom of the priority list. Often, it's the misconception of what role the videographer and wedding video will play in the overall scheme of things, that has many brides thinking of this as a low priority. Moreover, the primary obstacle that the wedding videography industry has to overcome is the fact that it is a relatively new service [15 to 20 years], versus wedding photography, which has been around as long as we can remember.

POSSIBLY RECONSIDER?

Our goal with this page is to try and get brides who are sitting on the fence with regard to videography, to reconsider. We will do this by relating stories we have received from brides who regretfully did not hire a videographer, as well as the happy brides who did! We are thankful that they changed their minds!

SEE THE WORK:
When a bride is given the opportunity to view a truly professional wedding video, this is often enough for them to change their minds. More often than not, it is the amateurish, home video that they have seen and may be the reason for leading them to believe they do not want a wedding video. The reality is, a professionally produced wedding video is a beautiful thing and often reflects the day as it was. Moreover, it is an opportunity for the bride to see the things that she missed or couldn't have possibly seen..such as parents being seated, or the ceremony processional. Wedding Photography is great! But having a photographer doesn't negate having a videographer. They are two totally different artforms, telling an entirely different side of the story.

COMMON MIS-CONCEPTIONS:

When it comes to videography, the most common thing we hear is that it is out of the budget. This is true if we take into account our budget theory detailed on our budget page. The bottom line is, if the videography is not important to you then yes, it will be out of your budget. However, if it were at the top of your list, and you wanted a really great video, then you would find the budget within your overall wedding budget to be able to hire a videographer. It really hinges on the fact of how important it is to you!

WHAT TO AVOID:
It is important to choose a videographer who will work well within the given parameters of your wedding. First and foremost is the lighting. If you are having a gorgeous, formal candle lit dinner, the last thing you want is a videographer who uses 1000 watt lights mounted on huge stands that stick out like an eyesore. These "10' o'clock news" videographers often use bright lights in guests faces, light up the dance floor and often ask guests to speak directly into the camera offering best wishes to the couple. This style has been heavily frowned upon, but is still prevalent among lower end vendors today.

Another important factor is how well your videographer will work with you photographer. Most brides will agree that photography is paramount. Therefore, if your photographer offers a professional videography service, then it's recommended to go with that. If your photographer offers video, but not as professional as you would like, seek out a videographer who understands that the photographer has priority over any particular shots and placements of cameras, tripods, etc. Along these same lines, do not get a videographer who will shoot over the shoulder of your photographer. Think about it....if your videographer is filming you getting your picture taken, who is covering the actual event? Wouldn't you much rather see your cocktail hour on video, rather than seeing you getting your photo taken?

A good videographer will fill in the gaps that the photographer is leaving (as mentioned above, filming your cocktail reception because you are off site taking pictures) and be your eyes and ears for the things you will not be present for.

SOUND IS CRITICAL TO ANY MOTION PICTURE.

WIRELESS MICROPHONES: We recently read on a videographers website that 'for realism, we do not use wireless microphones'. To put it nicely, this is complete and utter rubbish. Wireless microphones are an absolute must have so be sure to choose a videographer who uses them. The reason being that, audio production is a huge part of video production. If the videographer doesn't think enough of the audio to use a wireless mic, chances are they are not true professionals and they are certainly not concerned with the audio portion of the program.

Another great way to capture sound is by using additional digital audio recording devices, or patching directly into the sound system being used for the ceremony and/or reception. Videographers do this by using additional wireless microphones and the necessary cables to connect to the sound system being used.

F.A.Q. Presented here are the many reasons we have heard from brides who do not want a wedding video...and the reason to reconsider.

1. I can't afford it. It's simply not in my budget!
This is the most common excuse from brides who simply do not care about, nor do not want a video. If this is the case, nobody except the bride herself, can change her mind. As our budget theory states, if something is not important to you, then you place no value on it. If a bride really wants a professional video, then the budget WILL be there as importance will be placed on this most important wedding service.

2. I have family and friends who will be taking video so I don't need to hire a videographer.

Home video is great! So are still photos taken by family and friends. But for the same reasons, you wouldn't want your family and friends doing your wedding photography, is the same reason you need to hire a professional videographer who knows what it takes to make a professional movie based on good, solid video production techniques. With family and friends taking video, often what you end up with is an incomplete program, shot handheld, very shaky with absolutely no editing. This is far from what a true professional videographer will offer you.

3. I'm spending a lot on my photos on a really good photographer so I don't need a video.

Photography and videography are two totally separate art forms and industries. One does not negate the other. What the photography doesn't have is the sound and the motion. Let us give you one example. You have living grandparents that are coming to your wedding. In the future, when they pass on, would you rather stare at a picture, or see them move and hear them talk on a video?

4. I will just get a cheap videographer because I am spending so much on my photography!

You have to be really careful on this one! Many brides do not fully understand the impact a low level videographer can have on your wedding and on your wedding photography. If you get a low level videographer who interferes with your photographer with their unprofessionalism, bright lights and overall intrusiveness, then you are actually hurting yourself. If you do decide on video, make sure to get a vendor that matches the overall professionalism of all your vendors including the photographer. Don't get a videographer who will shine bright lights and stick a microphone in your guests putting them on the spot.

5. We are not video people and/or we don't want to see ourselves on video and/or we don't watch alot of television.

It really comes down to seeing all of your hard work on the big screen. A good videographer will get a great mix of shots, guests and the decorations. The video will not be a 90 minute close up of just the couple. And, with the proper pre planning with your videographer you can minimize that shots you don't want. For instance, if you are only doing one camera for the ceremony, have the videographer shoot it from the audience view to get an overall feel of the ceremony. Do not shoot it in front so that all you see in your ceremony is a close up of your faces. Instruct your videographer that your goal is to see all our family and friends on the video, not just yourselves.

Ok, so those are some of the excuses we hear! Now let's talk about some reasons to do videography! But not just do it, do it right!

The video will be your eyes and ears for things you won't see! How would you like to see your processional? How about being able to see the grooms reaction as you come down the aisle? When you are off taking photographs at the reception, the video can film the cocktails and do interviews at that time and show you what you missed there. How did the reception room look before guests entered? You see, there are many things that you will not see but would like to. This is the reason for the video.

LET'S GET EXCITED ABOUT THE VIDEO!

For those couples who want to do video right, you'll want to do your research and find out who is shooting High Definition (HD) or HD's little cousin HDV. You'll want someone to do multiple cameras and offer a DVD with a customized motion menu. You may also want a long form video as well as a short form video with highlights. Slow motion sequences are also very popular. Wireless microphones are a must, as are low light HD or HDV cameras that can shoot in available light without having to bring spot-lights that spoil the mood of your reception. If necessary, a soft-diffused on camera light can be used to fill in the flesh tones at a dark wedding venue.

WEDDING VIDEO TURN AROUND TIME.
Wedding Video turn around times vary from videographer to videographer. The average time we have found is 2 to 4 months. Videographers that spend more time editing to create a highly stylized movie, may take anywhere from 4 to 8 months. Also, it is not uncommon for some videographers to take up to a year to produce a finished movie. In many cases, the videographer may ask you for your music choices and/or images for a montage. To decrease your turn around time, make sure to give your videographer any and all of these components as a delay in your part to submit these, may increase the turn around time.

Here's a fun video clip showing a middle eastern wedding traditon of hoisting the bride and groom on the shoulders of some very strong people and giving them the ride of their life! The groom looks no worse for the wear but the bride was clearly terrified~!

This wonderul reception was held at the Spinnaker in Sausalito, CA This Spinnaker has arguably the best seafood in Marin County. I say arguably because there are a few other really good seafood restaurants in Marin so it's mainly a matter of preference.

Making Your Wedding Video Perfect

This day is about you and your soon to be husband. Our videographers are sensitive to this and will do everything they can to make sure they remain unobtrusive while filming your wedding video. Due to the fact that wedding day preparations are full of hustle and bustle, we would like to share some tips with you for ensuring that our production of your wedding video goes smoothly.Here are some tips to help make your wedding video production go smoothly:

#1: Have a Wedding Rehearsal
During wedding rehearsals, we smost always uncover problems that would have prevented us from having the best view of the couple during the ceremony. For example, in one instance, the unity candle was placed in a gazebo. During the ceremony, the groomsmen blocked one of the entrances. Fortunately, our videographer was able to get a decent frame through quick assessment of the situation. However, this could have been avoided. We've also seen officiants try to place bridesmaids where the maid-of-honor would be too far to assist with the train or hold the bride's flowers, placing the bride on the wrong side of her father and many more mistakes that we were able to correct during the rehearsal. If you must go without a rehearsal, please let us know so we can go over information with you to help ensure that all will go smoothly.

#2: Decorations
Florists and decorators often place large vases of flowers or other decorations right in front of where our cameras will be. Often, we arrive early on the wedding day to check decorations and notify the decorators of any conflicts so that they will have time to make any necessary changes. You may want to let them know in advance that you want your wedding videographers to have a good view of the ceremony. They are welcome to email or phone us in advance of the ceremony for tips.

#3: No gum chewing
Please ask everyone who may be on camera not to chew gum. Gum chewing looks terrible on video, and your wedding videographer will have a hard time getting a decent expression.

#4: Photographer dress code
Although most photographers dress professionally, suprisingly, a third of them do not. So to protect your wedding video, please ask your photographer not to dress in bright colors and to stay out of the way of the video cameras. You don't want a loudly-dressed photographer distracting you every time you watch your wedding video.

#5: Ask your Photographer to respect our Videographers
A photographer only needs a second to get a shot, but it only takes a second to ruin a wedding videographer's shot which needs to run five seconds or more. Most photographers are great to work with, but believe it or not, there are photographers out there who feel that they can create more demand and sales for their photos if they block enough video. We've actually had photoggraphers purposely stand in front of our videographers every chance they got. And other wedding videographers we've spoken to have experienced this as well. An easy solution to this potential problem is a kind word from the bride or groom asking that they cooperate with the videographer.

#6: Say the vows slowly
You both will be understandbly nervous on your wedding day. Please try to remember, when it comes time to say the vows, to look each other in the eye and say those words with meaning. Some nervous grooms will try to rattle off the lines as fast as they can while looking at the minister.

#7: Ring Exchange
When it comes time for exchanging your rings, if you can remember this, try to ever so slightly tilt the hand you are placing the ring on toward one of the videographers so it can capture the moment in a close-up. Typically, the camera on the groom's side catches him placing his bride's ring on, and vice-versa.

#8: Positioning

Best Man and Maid of Honor
One of our videographers will always be close to you, behind and off the side of the officiant. Please aks the Best Man and the Maid of Honor to look over their shoulder at the videographer on their side and be sure that they have left a wide enough gap (for the camera) between themselves and the groom (three feet works fine). Preferably, the best man will leave a few feet between himself and the groom. If you can't see the camera, the camera can't see you.

Bridesmaids
Ask the bridesmaids (especially the maid-of-honor) to look over their shoulder at the camera operator and be sure they have left a wide enough gap between themselves and the bride, for the camera. Preferably, the maid-of-honor will leave a few feet between herself and the bride.

Reception
During cake cutting, toasts, etc., the groom should stand on the far side of the bride, so that she is closest to the camera side, and not blocked by the groom. (Do the opposite if the bride is much taller than the groom.)

#9: Sunlight
If your wedding will be held outdoors, remember that bright, overhead sunlight can be harsh and unflattering. The couple of hours after sunrise and before sunset are the best times for photos and video. (Of course, if you can arrange an overcast day, that works fine too!)

#10: Officiants refusing videographers
We recently heard of an unusual instance where a minister refused to have videographers anywhere but in the far back of the church. The videographer (from another company) called us for advice. Our advice was for him to talk with the minister and explain how discreet video operators can be. Failing that, a remote-control system might be acceptable. If the minister holds fast and the bride will not change the ceremony location then he should still setup multiple cameras with varying perspectives and make the best of it. But you cannot get the very best wedding video that way. If you have any doubts about the rules set by your officiant, you should advise your videographer right from the start.

#11: The Groom should not touch his lapel mic
We will place a wireless lapel mic on the groom, about twenty minutes before the proceedings begin. Sometimes the groom wants to have a private conversation with his buddies and turns the mic off. They never remember to turn it back on, thus diminishing the audio for bride and groom's vows. Tell the groom that we will not turn the receiver on until the ceremony begins, so there is no need for him to turn his mic off. Although we use a backup mic, this does not capture voices quite as clearly as the lapel mic, so please tell the groom to not touch his mic or transmitter.

#12: Keep the lapel mics where they are
A well meaning person, perhaps your photographer, may suggest you change your lapel microphone location from your coat lapel to your vest, pocket, or behind your boutonniere, etc. Firmly refuse. Your videographer knows where to place your mic. A seemingly minor change like one of the above, can ruin your wedding audio. We truly appreciate your helping us make the production of your wedding video a breathtaking success!

If you haven't booked yet, keep in mind that dates often start filling up three to four months in advance and that some couples book as early as a year in advance.

They not only give you cables to hook up to their internal sound system, but they also give the couple an audio cd recording of the Ceremony, which we can use in the editing to enhance the sound of your video!

The reception was held at the wonderful Garden Court Hotel in Palo Alto, CA.
A very special thanks for DREAM IT EVENTS for referring us to this wonderful couple! Alison and Greg were a joy to work with and we wish them a lifetime of happiness.

Ruby Hill Golf Club Wedding Video

2009-04-30T16:03:00.000-07:00

This is a video we shot at Ruby Hill Golf Club in Pleasanton, CA. This is a very nice place to have a wedding. The lighting is good and the people that work there are very nice to the guests. The treat the vendors ok too.

The wedding took place on Sunday, April 26, 2009. The video was posted on our youtube channel on April 30, 2009! This video happens to be the FASTEST TURN AROUND TIME available anywhere! Sure you can BACK DATE THE POST, but if you go to my YOUTUBE.COM CHANNEL, you will see it was uploaded on April 20, 2009

WOW! Now we can't say this is typical for all of our wedding videos, but if we are all caught up and there is no backlog of wedding videos to edit, we will certainly get to your as fast as possible without sacrificing any quality!

Wine and Roses Lodi Wedding Video

2009-03-07T20:54:00.000-08:00

Here's a nice clip from a Wine and Roses Wedding Video.

This is a perfect example of what videography can deliver that photography can't. Emotional audio as well as motion picture... this is what video is all about. Sure photographs are great, but you don't get this type of emotion from looking at a still picture [well maybe you do but then that would defeat my argument that VIDEO RULES LOL]!!

The wedding venue was WINE AND ROSES in Lodi CA. This seems to be a wonderful place for a wedding. It is a little far for some folks, but if you have to get married in this area, it seems to be the nicest place.

HD Wedding Videographer

Bridal Prep-behind the scenes with realtime emotion

2009-03-07T19:47:00.000-08:00

Often included as extra footage on your RAW FOOTAGE DISC are some emotional moments like this. This clip is behind the scenes, shot reality TV style. We refer to it as REALTIME STORYTELLING. i.e., rather than quick cuts edited to music, it is shot in one long take so that the viewer can hear and appreciate what is going on in the scene. It is very simple, but also very motion picture'esque.

Wedding Vows at the Pulgas Water Temple

2009-03-05T20:50:00.000-08:00
