I am so excited to be able to post about our first Same Day Edit of the 2011 season! And it was so nice to film on a gorgeous July day. Josie and Joel both have this serious laid back side, but also a fun and crazy side too. Filming their day was so enjoyable. For a lot of the past year the 2 of them have been living apart and so the excitement was evident. Joel had some special journals he's kept over that time where he wrote his thoughts and was counting down the days hours, and minutes until the big day. Watch for the shot. What a neat idea, and such a wonderful thing to look back on in years to come.
I must say though when they told me the ceremony was going to be held at St. Mary's Parish I was a little worried since it is a pretty dark church. I've filmed in this church before and knew the challenges of low light but since we shoot with all DSLR cameras it merely meant changes our lens choices (one of which is my new Canon 50mm 1.4). I was very happy with the result. The shots in the church were magnifique!! It was actually hard to choose during the edit which shots to put since I had such great stuff to work with from all 3 cameras. Which reminds me... I need to send out props to my 2 assistants Tyler and Jennifer who really came through for me with some fantastic content throughout the day. The groomsmen definitely gave Tyler some original stuff to work with as you'll see. We shot the day with 2 Canon 7Ds and a Canon 60D... a great combination.
And for the vows... I chose to latch onto something a little different. The priest read some of their thoughts about each other which I thought was unique. It's one of those things that really helps to the story of their love. So included parts of those instead since it really added more to it and gave the feeling of them writing their own vows.
And as for the Same Day Edit... what's interesting is a lot of times when the DJ hears we'll be stopping the dance to he gets worried it's going to kill the momentum of the evening and clear the dance floor. In almost every case the exact opposite happens. The Same Day Edit gets everyone so pumped and excited it throws everything up a notch because of the experience of reliving all those amazing moments again. Here's some incredible ones. I'm excited to share Josie and Joel's Same Day Edit. Enjoy.
