>Our Approach

I could spend hours writing a novel on the thought process that goes into our films and how we approach the wedding day. . . . but why not just show you. We are so thrilled that we finally had an opportunity to reflect on everything and bring this to life. Hope you enjoy ๐Ÿ™‚

As another great year is beginning to unfold, we are gearing up for some amazing stories that we cannot wait to share with you! In the meantime, we have been continuing to work with some corporate clients that we love to post on the blog from time to time.

Rockstar Energy has nominated Kelli Hutcherson to become Miss Strikeforce 2011. Strikeforce and Rockstar teamed up for a photo-shoot to launch the 2011 year and here’s the cinema side.

A Friendly Disclaimer** – This vignette features a model wearing a very suggestive outfit catering to a male crowd, thus the imagery from this edit may not be suitable for the kiddos. No Nudity, but don’t say I didn’t tell you so. . . .

We just got the news that Weddings by SML has received the WeddingWire Bride’s Choice Award in 2011 now setting three consecutive years that we have received the distinction!

What this means is that Weddings by SML stands among the top five percent of wedding professionals in the WeddingWire community, representing quality and service excellence within the wedding industry. Awards were given to the top wedding professionals across 20 service categories, from wedding venues to wedding photographers, and were based on the overall professional achievements throughout the past year.

Truthfully, the reason we get these awards is because of our couples and the fantastic reviews they have left us over the past few years. Thank you so very much to all who contributed and we are truly looking forward to some big things in 2011 ๐Ÿ™‚

Stay tuned. . . . .

As a child, I hated the rain. Rain meant no recess, no outdoor activities, no playing hockey on the cul de sac after school. Rain meant cold and wet. Wet socks. Wet clothes. Wet backpacks. Rain made me take an umbrella everywhere I went. Rain sucked.

My wife, Jackie, LOVES the rain. To her as a child, rain meant her favorite sweatshirt, a cup of hot chocolate, the fireplace, and a good book. I never liked to read.

As I’ve grown older, rain doesn’t bother me as much anymore. In fact, as the storms usher in the winter, I almost welcome the rain as a refreshing change to the scorching sun of the summer. With rain comes fresh air and new seasons. A clean slate and an opportunity to reflect. Now that I’m no longer a child, I find myself becoming more like my wife and on that note, this is what we saw outside the studio this morning as we were editing away. The rain reminds me of Jackie, and that is reason enough to post this clip, a tribute to her.
