Pam and Brian

May 9, 2009, a date engraved forever on the hearts of Pam and Brian.

As Pam prepared to meet her lover at the gazebo, anticipation ran high. She secretly walked from the Bridal Suite to the main reception hall to avoid the eyes of her soon-to-be husband. When Brian finally saw his bride walking across the gardens of Zukas, he could not contain his emotion, tears of joy stained his face.

With a child-like expectation, Pam was most excited about their first kiss as husband and wife. When Brian and Pam’s lips finally touched, it seemed to have stopped the earth’s rotation, if even for a moment!

Surrounded by their closest friends and family, Pam and Brian went on to celebrate their marriage under the white canopy on the grounds of Zukas. This is the highlight reel which is the concluding montage in Pam and Brian's wedding film "The First Day."

Enjoy!

The Value of Wedding Videography!

A Wedding is a special moment in time where so many aspects of your life come together!

On this day, one moment in your life, so many important, memorable events can happen that only the moving camera can capture. If Amy and Andrew had opted NOT to have professional video and audio captured for them on their wedding day, they would only have their memories to rely on for this moment. THANK GOD they opted IN... they will have this moment now and years from now to look back on to laugh and cry about!

Enjoy!

Would you do this to anyone else?

So often as service providers, we get the " Can you help me out? I'm on a budget?"
which at WFD, we COMPLETELY understand.. we are on a budget, too!

This has been an interesting year to say the least.. and we are certainly willing to work with potential clients... please understand.. this is in good humor - with a dash of truth to it.. WFD cannot claim to be the producer.. but we are certainly happy to post a bit of sweet and sour video every once in a while! Enjoy!

Zukas Wedding

Pamela and Brian got married on May 9th 2009 at Zukas Hilltop Barn in Spencer, MA

I was thrilled to capture their day on so many levels. First, I enjoy weddings so much and second, Pam and Brian are huge "Lord of the Rings" fans. Magic and passion are two of the main influences in LOTR and who wouldn't want more magic and passion in their relationship? Pam and Brian definately have a unique bond that has drawn them together.

Secondly, I was able to shoot my first wedding with my new HD cams... so this is my first time using this new paint brush! I was a little nervous.. but super excited too!

Below is a trailer for Pam and Brian's wedding, a little nugget of what is to come! Please enjoy!
(Pam and Brian's photo link will be posted to view images from the wedding right here, after Memorial Day weekend! )

PS- Please leave a comment for Pam and Brian below!

Lena & Victor!

Lena & Victor DeSa married June 29, 2008.

Each wedding I look for something unique in the couple. Lena & Victor are comfortable with each other, like best friends.
You can see it.

Surrounded by family and friends, all they had to do was glance at each other and each knew what the other was thinking. In this highlight piece, Lena & Victor were dancing their last dance of the evening, their thoughts about pieces of the day still flying through their minds.

Enjoy!

HD IS HERE at WFD!

I am soo excited!
This season WFD has upgraded all it's camera's to HD! Yup- we are taking you all to the High Definition World! What does that mean for you? A higher quality image and an updated film format! It also means that WFD is getting "Greener!"

With our new HD cams - no more tapes.. all of our footage is captured on SD cards.. making our film format a little more earth friendly, and allowing our editing time to speed up too!

So, with our sped up capture (editing) time, we are revamping our packages too! It seems that many of our clients are looking for more sharply edited versions of their wedding day that can be watched not only at home, but shared online too! So, this season we are introducing new V-media films that are more captivating for your online experience!

Let us know where you need to share your wedding, whether on Facebook, MySpace, or on your personal Wedding Blog, and we can tailor a trailer, pre-quel, highlight or 20 minute version of your wedding day just for you - in HD!

Be on the lookout for our new HD films on the blog!
Happy Wedding Planning!

Why brides DONT want a wedding video...

Ok -
As a filmmaker (not a videographer) this is the stigma that I have to deal with all the time. Take a break from your wedding planning, or post-wedding life, and enjoy this comic relief about my industry!

From Weddings to babies! A family is born!

My great friend Victoria... she started out as a client, then a great referal, and NOW, well, now she and her husband Vlad are celebrating their first child's first birthday ( and let me tell you, the festivities that Victoria has planned are phenomenal)

Well, Victoria and Vlad have requested a special film be made for their little guy, Adrian, to be played at his birthday party. I am so honored to have been a part of this production.

I will post the film next week, after the party... for now, here is the short, but sweet, trailer!
Enjoy!

Leanne & Brian - a wedding highlight reel

You might remember Leanne and Brian, if you are following the WFD blog!
They were married back in September 2008 and had booked the WFD Instant Wedding! Which some are calling the Same-Day-Edit! You can scroll down the WFD Blog to September 28, 2008
to view Leanne & Brian's Instant Wedding Film, we posted it the next day to view online!

Well, after many weeks of editing, the full version of their wedding day is finally finished and ready to view! As always, we are posting the highlight reel clip here for Leanne and Brian to view during the few days of waiting for their DVD's to arrive via snail mail!

Enjoy, and post a comment if you feel so compelled! OH! and I wanted to thank Tim Cook from Cook Productions for allowing Wedding Film Design to use his images from the wedding day in the final film ( a couple are in the highlight reel here) but truely, when your photographer allows us to incorporate your images into your film, it is just the perfect compliment! Thank you again Tim!
