Wells Wedding Highlights - Austin, TX

Sam and Alena’s wedding was one that I feel so incredibly lucky to have captured. Everything about their day was so beautiful and felt like I was shooting THE dream wedding with THE dream couple. These two are so clearly head over heels for each other, and they were willing to wait and reschedule their wedding not once, but twice, in order to have their closest friends and family be there to love and support them on their day.

You can tell from every aspect of the day that Alena has great style and an eye for design. This also came down to the video, which she requested a darker and moodier color profile for. It was a definite creative challenge for me but I think it paid off and fit them so well! Knowing that Alena was a fellow creative also pushed me to want to make a video that (just like Alena and Sam) was stylish and a little bit ahead of the curve. I’m so proud of this one and grateful to have been part of their day. Congrats to the Wells!

Wells Wedding Preview - Austin, TX

Gahhh this is tripping me up as I write this! When Alena and Sam booked me she had mentioned that she liked the sort of dark and moody color look. I said I could try to edit in that style and wow, I feel like this looks like another filmmaker’s work! I tried using LUT’s for the first time (I went with Henry Martens Moab collection), and it was waaaay more difficult than I imagined! Editing in a different color profile than what you’re used to is definitely an art form. It’s fun to try but admittedly not my forte.

But back to Alena and Sam… These two booked me over a year ago and ended up postponing their wedding twice during the pandemic. During this time they also decided to go ahead and get married because they just couldn’t wait! Their long awaited wedding day finally came and it was literally a dream come true. Everything about the day was absolutely stunning, and if I could get married again I think Alena’s dream wedding would be my dream wedding. Her style is impeccable (I mean have you seen her dress?!), and I honestly felt like the luckiest videographer to be able to capture their day. Congrats to the Wells!
