If there is one wedding blog out there that has supported our studio since their inception, it would have to be the incredible ladies over at The Wedding Chicks! We have had the privilege of being one of the studios on their vendor list now for the past three years (basically since they began). Over that time, the exposure they have generated for us in conjunction with some of the fun tag team projects we have created (click here to see one) leave us with a feeling of family when we refer to Amy and Jocey.

Thank you so much Amy and Jocey for all of your support and continued support along this crazy journey!!! It’s with honor, excitement, and straight humility that we are proud to now be a Hand Picked Vendor with The Wedding Chicks. For a peek at our page, click here! We are so looking forward to a crazy jam packed 2012 with some killer stories on the way. . . . . stay tuned 🙂

Dave and Lindsay have about as crazy of a “How did you guys meet” story as anyone out there. As fate would have it, their meeting took place halfway around the world in the middle of the Mediterranean aboard a cruise ship. As a connection was instant and simple, the battle of continuing the relationship once they headed home was not the same.Home was a very different place for both of them. Still separated by thousands of miles and a three hour time change, these two knew they were investing into something more than just a cruise ship fling. Little did they know that just three short years later, they would be sharing an evening filled with the most important people in both of their lives as they became husband and wife.

This one holds a special place in “the Fray” in that Dave is part of the Threaded Films team. We affectionately refer to him as “the mule” in that he is often the guy behind the scenes on our shoots not only lugging around all of our tools, but making sure the audio on our shoots is perfect. There is only one “mule”. We love you Dave. As we found out when filming our bio film, which you can see on the website labeled as “Our Philosophy“, turning the camera on ourselves is often the most difficult of tasks. However, to see Dave and Lindsay’s story unfold and to share a taste of their day with everyone who is reading this is the ultimate reward. Dave and Lindsay, we hope you enjoy the edit as much as we enjoyed putting it together. Thanks to Gabe for helping out with this shoot as it was definitely all hands on deck and a very sincere thank you goes out to Ben for not only his dedication to filming this day in the way it deserved to be filmed, but also his relentless effort in making sure that this edit stayed true to the story that is Dave and Lindsay.

Also, a special thank you to the radical bodaciously amazing and eternally awesome Lane Dittoe from Lane Dittoe Photography. Photographer. Super-hero. Legend. We love you Lanerd.

In part 1, we shared the stills from the iPhone throughout the trip. Part 2 is some of the video we captured. Well we weren’t up in Wyoming to film for this, we simply couldn’t resist the opportunity to share some of the imagery that was calling out to us. The following is a simple edit that was filmed over the course of several days around Jackson Hole and Yellowstone National Park. The music and pacing of the edit was designed to convey the calming nature of Wyoming and its landscape. Every sunset is unique and we could have stopped at just about every turn on our journey and showed you something new.

We hope you enjoy as much as we enjoyed filming!

A Few quick Behind the Scenes photographs as well. . .

If you follow us on Twitter or Facebook, you know that recently we set out on a commercial project in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. There is more to come on that work specifically, but we wanted to take the opportunity to share some of the majestic surroundings of Wyoming with you in a two part blog post. Part 1 is dedicated to the stills. . . . and thanks to Apple, the magical iPhone 4s came out just days before we left for this trip, so we opted to take pictures with the cell phone camera as kind of a science experiment (only there really wasn’t any science involved). Just find pretty images (everywhere you look in Wyoming) and find the good light (also abundant in Wyoming) and push the button on the phone. Cell phones sure have come a long way from the “Zack Morris Brick” and we find the images you can grab from this little piece of technology to be stunning. All shots were taken with the Apple iPhone 4s. You decide for yourself.

Upon arrival, one of the first places we stopped. Miller House.

The path to where we found some of our best footage


Nothing beats catching the Aspen trees in the 2 week window that is the change of the leaves.

Perhaps our favorite shot of the trip.

The Teton Range. 

In our next post, we have an edit of some of the epic landscapes that make up Jackson Hole, WY and Yellowstone National Park. Stay tuned. . . .

One year ago today, we had the opportunity to document Scott and Brigitte, our Halloween Couple. We wanted to take an opportunity to say Happy 1 year anniversary to Scott and Brigitte as they reach their first milestone as Husband and Wife today on Halloween. It’s always fun to look back at edits from the past and remember the stories that went into putting them together, especially the Same Day Edits. This is their Same Day Edit from a year ago today. Happy Anniversary!

And to make things even better. . . Scott and Brigitte are featured today on Style Me Pretty! To see the article and the AMAZING photographs from our friends over at Focus Photography, click HERE.
