Deanna & Eric Highlights
We spent last Saturday in Clinton with Deanna and Eric. It was a great fall day and a beautiful ceremony in an old church. I love weddings in the fall because the colors are always perfect and it’s not so HOT! The wind got a little crazy but we still managed to get some great shots outside!
I would also like to thank Deanna for insisting that Melanie and I dance together
We’re always working so hard and it was really nice for her to demand that we stop filming and have a dance! This was Melanie’s last wedding for awhile as we await the arrival of our baby girl, so getting a dance together was a nice way for her to end the year.
Here are some highlights from their wedding day!

Katie & Adam Highlights
Saturday we had a great wedding day with Katie and Adam. They were a very fun group to work with and that always makes the long days a lot easier. The weather was perfect and the setting at Augustana’s Ascension Chapel was beautiful allowing for some great footage overall. The reception was at Stoney Creek Inn which is a pretty dark venue for video, but I’m really getting our lighting effects the way I want now and creating a really nice look for the shots….even in very low light. This video opens with those shots!
Also, I think Katie wins for the biggest bouquet that I’ve personally ever seen !! Here are the highlights from their day!

SDE: Dave + Kelly
On Saturday, we presented a SDE: Same Day Edit for Dave and Kelly. I’ve been looking forward to their wedding for quite awhile and it was a great wedding and a great day. It was also great to be able to share more of the day with all of their guests by showing this video at the reception.
With the SDE, we essentially take everything we’ve taped up to the beginning of the reception and edit together a clip that we’ll then show it at the reception. This was our first SDE and everything went perfectly. Most of the highlights and trailers I put on this blog are put together in about a day and then put online. I’ve spent 6-9 just editing one of these small clips to get everything just right. They wanted to show the video early so by the time I got everything ready to edit, I had about 1.5 hours to put this all together and get it ready to show.
Here is Dave and Kelly’s Same Day Edit video that was shown at their reception!
