No, I Love You More | Oceanside Wedding In Corpus Christi, TX

For Zac and Lindsey, it was their quiet moments that Rachel and I wanted to capture the most. Yes, their wedding had loud dancing (with some crazy moves), and exuberant shouts of joy when they were pronounced husband and wife, but for every one of these moments, there was an equally smaller and more intimate moment that no one saw but us and them.

In lieu of funky dance moves, there were warm embraces in the sunset, and though no one knew except for those closest to them at the time, their pronouncement of marriage included them whispering, “No, I love you more,” back and forth.

These quiet moments are what Rachel and I endeavored to capture on Zac and Lindsey’s wedding day. If you are getting married, whether you are loud and wild, or quieter and intimate (or both!), we would love to talk about filming your wedding. Please get in touch!

I Will Always Use Our Love As My Compass | Bohemian Elopement in Colorado

After spending four days in the mountains of Colorado with Mallory and Clay, we felt more like family than friends. From whitewater rafting in the ice cold San Miguel river, stuffing our faces with cheesy hot dogs (Clay’s family tradition!), off-roading over mountain passes, and celebrating all over the town of Ouray, we know both them and Mallory’s two sons, very well.

When you see their film and hear their story told through their letters and vows, you’ll see how these two were lost until they found each other, how Mallory’s free-spirited nature melded so well with Clay’s adventurous spirit, and how an immeasurable, never-ending love can be formed between two people. You’ll also see Clay giving some of the sweetest vows we’ve ever heard, as a father to Mallory’s sons. Maybe by the end of their film, you’ll feel like family too.

Planning on eloping to Colorado (or anywhere else?) sometime soon? We would love to film it! Please get in touch.

Bohemian Elopement in Colorado | I Never Knew Love Like This Existed

This wedding was supposed to happen in Austin, Texas. Seriously. My wife Rachel and I met Mallory and Clay as they were planning their nuptials in the Hill Country of Texas. As we learned about their love for adventure that included ice climbing in Colorado and spear fishing in the Caribbean, we began to get the feeling that Austin didn’t really fit the vibe of their wedding.

Thankfully, ACL weekend (think: massive concert in Austin, gobs of people, traffic, and hotels full) was scheduled the same weekend as their wedding date, and Mallory and Clay asked my wife Rachel and I if we had ever been to the (self-proclaimed) “Switzerland of America”: Ouray, Colorado. Plans were changed, flights were booked, and suddenly the big Austin wedding in the Hill Country, became a much smaller and more intimate family wedding in the mountains surrounding Ouray.

 

The lavish wedding venue was replaced with a cliff overlooking a lake, hotels were traded for a VRBO that fit the entire wedding party including guests, and white water rafting was scheduled as a pre-wedding activity. Mallory and Clay made their wedding weekend their own, and this trailer gives just a hint of the time we spent together.

We left the weekend feeling like family, and we are very excited to share with you their full film soon.

Whether you are getting married in Austin, Colorado, or anywhere else, as long as you are making your wedding day your own, we would love to film it. Please get in touch.

“You are the Joni Mitchell to my James Taylor” | Emotional Countryside Wedding Film in Johnson City, TX

My wife Rachel had three roommates in college, and now as of this wedding, I have filmed two of their weddings (still holding out hope for number 3, Mattie-Ruth!). Normally when we film weddings, we sit down with the couple over dinner and hear the entire story of how they met, fell in love, and decided to get married. For Lauren and Matt though, things were a bit different because we have been there to witness their entire relationship (which we totally saw coming by the way).

 

To sum it up, they wrote and performed songs together, which basically requires them to fall in love*.  Witnessing two of our good friends joining their lives together in a moment that we were all hoping and waiting for made their wedding day all the more special for us to film.

Are you marrying your best friend/duet singer? Even if you don’t make beautiful music together, we would love to film your wedding. Please get in touch!

5 years together, going on 50 | Downtown Austin Wedding

Five years ago, at a small Catholic college in St. Louis, Missouri, Kathleen met Michael. A chance meeting at a sorority party their senior year led to dates, competitive Catan game nights, and an eventual move for Michael from St. Louis to Texas so they could be together. It was this move across state lines that made them both realize they were ready to spend the rest of their lives together.

This May, they made it official, with an unmistakably Texas wedding, set in the heart of Austin. They said their vows barely a stone’s throw away from the Capitol, and proceeded to dance the night away with both a Texas Country band and a DJ flown in from Los Angeles.
