Confucius wasn’t lying. . . . . .

One of the most rewarding parts of our job is the ability to create something that is truly unique. Our couples know that we don’t do ordinary and I like to think that all of our couples are distinct in that they hire us because they are looking for something that is truly extraordinary. We go into each shoot with that in mind and when we receive thank you cards, I always like to share them because I feel that every time we receive one of these cards, it shows that the mission has been accomplished.

Just today, we received a pair of thank you cards, one from Sean + Sara, who we had the joy of filming in Palm Springs, and the other came from Ryan + Sara, who took the plunge at Padua Hills.

Congratulations to both couples and may we say “thank you” for the thank you!

Here are the cards they sent:


So this post has NOTHING to do with weddings. . . . . . . well, that’s not entirely true, you see, you’ll remember Cooper from two other clips that have made the blog. He was featured in a Save the Date video with his now wife Lauren, and we posted their trailer a short while ago as well!

Cooper is a drummer and that’s all he wants to be, forever. He even formed a company (Acoutin Custom) which fabricates custom drumsets. If you get into a conversation with him about drumming or making drums, he will happily tell you that drumming is what he wants to do, forever. It goes without saying that this is most certainly why he was put on this earth.

It also goes without saying that he is good, really, really good. . . and I was honored when he asked us to put together a drum solo video for him with the intention of building a reel/business card for the industry.

So we got together late on a Monday night and filmed into the wee hours of the morning until we arrived with enough tape for two songs. This is the remix he laid down for the Jay Z song, “Run This Town”. We also put together a killer video to an Eminem track, but for the sake of keeping this blog G rated, I haven’t posted it here (lyrics to the song will not be found on the Disney channel). If you would like to view the Eminem track, just email me and I’ll shoot you the link ๐Ÿ™‚

Cooper Acoutin, you are a talented man, and all I can say is don’t forget about us little people when you become famous. . . . .

>Off to Boston

Whenever we have the opportunity to travel to share our couple’s stories, it is truly a great experience and this one should be no exception.

We are thrilled to be spending this weekend in Boston for Elizabeth and Jon’s wedding. Can’t wait to get some amazing footage around the historic city and experience such an exciting wedding in such a spectacular place.
Stay tuned. . . . .

Just this past week, we received a couple very nice thank you cards as well as some goodies from our past couples. Amy and Ben (who is a Navy Seal) were way too kind in not only sending us some bad ass Navy Seal Stickers,

but a SWEET Navy Seal Polo as well!!!!

Finally, Amy and Ben were kind enough to send a very nice thank you card, too!
which left me no choice but respond in SIGN language. . . (sorry the jokes don’t get better)

Also, we received a wonderful thank you card from Allison and Rob for the Same Day Edit we did for them. If you didn’t have an opportunity to check it out, click HERE to watch thier SDE. This is the card they sent

A very special thank you to Ben + Amy and Rob + Allison for all the Love! It was a pleasure to work with both couples and we can only hope to have many more just as awesome as the four of you were!
