Counting Stars….

Fergus and Christina have a really crazy cool story. A Canadian girl meets a British military officer in Canada. They fall for each other. She moves to London, he goes to Afghanistan. They have a long distance relationship, but it remains stronger than ever. He proposes and they get married. It is awesome. They are awesome. While it isn't as cut and dry as my prelude suggests, their story is beautiful and sweet...exactly like them. Here is Christina and Fergus' wedding film trailer - we can't wait to show you the rest!

With A Little Bit Of Luck….

We were SO happy to get to shoot Rob and Abi's incredible wedding! We were already friends with them, and so we have had the privilege of seeing their love grow for quite a while now. It was amazing to be able to tell their story AND see friends get hitched at the same time! Rob and Abi could not be more different, but that truly is what makes their match so incredible. Those differences in culture and personality simply bring them even closer together and make them love each other's individual characteristics just that little bit more. Rob's Caribbean heritage makes him literally so laid back he is almost horizontal... and Abi's creativity and organization helps round them out as a couple (they both admit without it they would probably never be anywhere on time!)

A chance meeting on Faliraki beach, and Rob 'saving' Abi from the clutches of another man in a club, led them to this wonderful point in their journey. (He also proposed outside the Taj Mahal, which is a pretty good effort!) So that little bit of luck in Greece led us to where they are now, together forever. Check out their awesome wedding film trailer and some pretty awesome dance moves...

Home Sweet Home….

So a little while ago, we introduced you to Peter and Leland's incredible story, and today we are SO happy to show you their full film! With a back drop of beautiful Sintra, Portugal and a fairytale-like love, it was simply a magical wedding. If you missed the trailer, (where were you?) then check it out HERE.

The words that were said at the wedding really resonated with me the whole plane ride home. "Call it coincidence, destiny, fate, kismet. In one moment, lives can collide and change forever, yet chance encounters are not necessarily accidental. In fact, you can make your own luck by opening yourself to the world…" When you listen to the magical series of events that drew Peter and Leland together, it makes even more sense.

As I said in our previous post - to say that we love not only these two, but all the amazing friends and family they have, wouldn't be sufficient for the way we feel about them! The happy feeling that surrounded this wedding was overwhelming and we feel totally and utterly honored to have been able to tell their story. In their own words, neither of them need a map again… because together, they are well and truly home.

Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger.....

Victor (a comic book artist and self professed sci-fi obsessive) met the beautiful Darcy online, and their romance grew straight away into something incredibly strong. They are literally perfect for each other and EVERYBODY knows that when a super hero meets his girl, there is nothing that can come between them. They got married in beautiful historic Princeton at the Nassau Inn and we had an amazing time with them (yes we may have all sat with drinks after the wedding and ordered Pizza in the hotel lobby at 2am) The whole day was just full of smiles and lots of tongue in cheek fun. We can't wait to show you everything from that day, but to start... here is their film trailer. Enjoy!
