Chad & Jennifer

Click Here to view a very cool clip from Jen & Chad's wedding!

Chad & Jen were some of the coolest people I've ever hung out with at a wedding! There wedding turned out great, and their video was truly awesome, a big part because of Prem & Cheridy of Arising Images Photography. They are truly phenomenal artists and we had fun inspiring each other all day long with different shot ideas!

We spent the first part of the day shooting in Downtown Mt. Clemens, which has a lot of unique structures and is actually quite beautiful. Chad & Jen saw each other downtown for the first time that day, and got married at St. Peter Catholic Church right in Mt. Clemens.

Click here for another clip from their church.

Their Reception was at the Italian American Center at Partridge Creek. It was a great day, a great night, and a very inspiring event. Thanks for letting me be a part of it!

"The Greatest"

2008-04-29T15:19:00.002-04:00

In between editing Wedding Videos, we sometimes find time to produce other projects. This video stars my nephew, Giovanni Santilli, age 2. It is a music video to the Kenny Rogers song "The Greatest", and from the moment I heard it a few years back, I immediately wanted to produce this video with Giovanni!

I finally produced it just in time for his mommy's birthday (my sister-in-law Julie). In just 2 days on youtube, it had over 200 views!

Click Here to see the clip on youtube.com, and feel free to comment and/or send the link along to everyone you know!

We enjoy making all kinds of video, so if you have an idea of your own that you would like to see come to life, let us know and we'll make it happen!

Angela & Louis Sail Into the Sunset

2008-04-16T12:45:00.005-04:00

This latest wedding post is an example of everything going right. It was the perfect type of weather on such a perfect day. Angela looked beautiful and from Louis’ reaction, he seemed to realize how lucky he was to have her as his bride.

The location was Jefferson Beach Marina on the Infinity Yacht. The breeze, the sun and the water just complemented the energy and emotion of their day. We were honored to have been able to meet such great people and capture such a beautiful wedding.

This award makes it 4 straight years that we have earned national recognition for our Wedding Video Production, having won over 6 Aegis & Pegasus Awards.

Craig & Tracy Richardson

2008-03-27T12:03:00.005-04:00

Another awesome event out at the Best Western Concorde Inn in Clinton Township! Craig & Tracy had an incredible event, with their Ceremony held in the Promenade of the Concorde Inn, near their magnificent fountain. The reception followed, with DJ John providing the (JD) Entertainment. What a great time!!!

I actually went to high school with Craig, and it was very cool to be a part of his wedding day, and to see some old friends. You could tell how close he was with his family, it was really touching and a lot of that came out in the video. Good luck and we'll see you soon!

Tracy had a room at the Concorde as well: Check out a clip from her Preparation Highlights by clicking here.

John kept them dancing all night long: Here's a montage of some of the dancing from the Reception, click here to see.

Katie & Daniel's Wedding

2008-03-11T01:47:00.004-04:00

What an awesome night!!! This was a non alchoholic wedding but it was far from dry. There was so much love and support in the room. Mac 'N' Rays is always a great spot for a wedding. The crowd really came to have a good time. There were so many people dancing and participating at the end of the night, that I decided to have one of the guests take this picture to show how many people made it to the end.

Thank you Katie and Daniel for inviting me to be a part of your special day. You should feel blessed with the great family and friends that are a part of your lives.

Sincerely,
