Fleming Wedding Highlights - Houston, TX
Emily and Tyler’s wedding day has turned out to be one of the wildest rides I’ve ever experienced as a videographer. Their original wedding date was set for the end of March, which we had no idea would be the week that most of the state went into a shelter in place order. Only one week before the wedding Emily and I were on the phone discussing the wedding plans as normal, and within just a few days everything changed.
Tyler and Emily decided to go forward with their original wedding date in a private ceremony attended by less than 10 guests in the middle of a completely quiet, downtown Houston. Their day was relaxed, intimate, and romantic. They were then surprised by friends and family who waited outside the chapel to cheer them on with love and support (from 6 feet away). We spent the next hour after the ceremony capturing portraits and being able to have a ton of fun with the creative freedom that comes with not having a wedding schedule to follow.
The original plan was to still have a postponed reception later in August, so everything we had filmed was going to be used in the future highlights video. Unfortunately plans changed yet again, as Tyler and Emily (who is a nurse) recently had to make the tough decision to cancel their August reception. With what only amounted to a couple of hours of filming, I wanted to try my best to still create as full of a highlights video as possible. This video pushed me creatively and forced me to work with what little footage I had (basically almost no b-roll). It was a good reminder that my standards and what I want to create isn’t always going to be in my control, and that what ultimately matters is the bride and the groom getting to relive their day. It’s real, it’s what was experienced and not staged, and I think there is so much beauty in that. Congrats to the Flemings!
Gatens-Leede Wedding Highlights - Austin, TX
I’m so excited to finally share Emily and Marty’s wedding highlights! Their wedding day was an absolute dream, from the gorgeous florals, to Emily’s Wonder Woman-esque cuffs. Every detail was perfection! (Also shout out to Blue Sparrow Events, who I expect nothing less from!) This video challenged me creatively and brought a new level of fun and beauty to the editing process. Their video is two parts. One part romantic, the second part a straight up party. I can’t think of a couple who embodies those two things more. Congrats to Emily & Marty!

Shrum Wedding Highlights - Austin, TX
I’m sooo excited to finally share the Shrum wedding highlights with you! Prospect House is one of my all time favorite venues in the Austin area, and it never ceases to leave me inspired. Tyler and Regan’s wedding also had so many amazing moments that I couldn’t wait to incorporate into their video. Literally from the very beginning (possibly my most favorite video intro I’ve edited), down to the very last second when you hear Regan’s parents yelling bye as their car drives away. Their wedding day was stunning and emotional from beginning to end, and the day couldn’t have been any more perfect. Congrats to the Shrums!

Doherty Wedding Highlights - Austin, TX
Samantha and Ben’s wedding day was such a joy to film! These two were goofy, fun, and sentimental, and it was so special putting their story together to include those moments (examples, their matching wedding socks and the fact that both the father AND groom’s first looks were messed up!). Their love for each other is so evident in the way they look at one another, and you could feel the love coming through every portrait shot. Most importantly, their love for the Lord was on display throughout the entire day. The way their family and friends speak of these two, it’s so clear that God is at the center of their lives and their new marriage. Congrats to the Dohertys!
