MAGGIE & TOM // A Tale of Love & Devotion

Emily — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 09:49:27 +0000

He saw her across the room at the theatre group, actually she was the reason he was there. Tom had seem Maggie around uni and had decided this was a girl he wanted to get to know better. He caught her eye and they got talking. Not wanting to waste his opportunity to spend time to this sweet girl so he offered to walk her to the station, and when her train came be hopped on along with her. They kept talking all they way to Maggie’s stop, where they finally parted. She safely home, while Tom made the return journey back to uni as he didn’t even live on that train line!

It’s now nine years on from that story and that first special moment has turned into a life together built on deep devotion and love. And when Tom and Maggie decided to celebrate this love with there family and friends, we were honoured that they chose us to capture the day and tell their story for them.

Vivien and Joshua’s Wedding

Peter — Sun, 21 Feb 2010 00:47:58 +0000

I love how Chinese tea ceremonies give the parents and other family members a chance to really be involved in the wedding. They can take a moment to bless the couple and give them words of love and encouragement, it is such a great tradition to have part of weddings. Plus the beautiful reds and golds, the offerings and the incense really add to the sense of culture and history that these couples are part of.

Josh & Vivien’s was one such wedding. With two tea ceremonies, a civil ceremony, a drive out to Emerald Lake and a nine course reception dinner, they were in for a big day, but both of them were so relaxed for the start and ready to enjoy each moment. Although Josh may have felt the pressure when Vivien’s bridesmaid’s set him a tough challenge before he was allowed to enter the house!

I must say a special Thank You to Josh & Vivien for including us in the nine course dinner, we were very spoilt to be able to try shark fin soup, quail and lobster and it really made us feel part of their wedding day.

Hope you guys enjoy the highlight.

Jaye & Xavier: Save the Date

Peter — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 09:16:03 +0000

A week ago I finally got to shoot this save the date which I’d been planning for a while, I have been looking for new ways to shoot these short and sweet videos to capture even more of our couples personalities, and what awesome and perfect couple Jaye and Xavier was for this! To introduce them, they are massive Pearl Jam fans and I mean real fans. Pearl Jam recently did a tour around Australia and they went to almost every one of their concerts, and it didn’t finish there, then they hoped over to New Zealand to see them one more time – pretty cool!! On top of that they love music with a passion. So I came up with a concept that would incorporate both their wedding planning and also Pearl Jam. I am so glad we finally got to shoot it as I have been itching to get this on tape. So I won’t ramble on any more, and cheers for Jaye and Xavier letting me get creative Hope you guys enjoy it!

Last night we dropped off the final DVD’s to Rebecca and David as an early Christmas present. It was wonderful catching up with them again, and just like they were on their wedding day they were so welcoming and excited to see us! We are really proud of this wedding film and were thrilled to receive a thank you message after they watched the DVD last night – it’s those moments that we remember we love what we do!

So, I now have the pleasure of presenting to you Rebecca and David’s highlight. It was such a pleasure to be part of their day and I really wanted their highlights to capture the love and spirit of the joining of not only Rebecca and David, but their families as well. It truly a wonderful day full of family, friends and lots of smiles!

Also we would like to wish a Merry Christmas and a happy and safe New Year to everybody.

We have the pleasure of presenting Kim and Micheal’s wedding highlight. The day was perfect for a garden wedding at Rippon Lea Estate and allowed us to capture their day beautifully. They were so happy together enjoying the family and friends around them. In this highlight I wanted to capture the love that was between them and represent their happiness that we also saw in their save the date video.

I wanted to share that we’ve recently had some wonderful recognition internationally. Madalyn and Chean’s trailer has been featured this month on “Wedding Filmmaker Awesomeness” on WedFACT (Wedding Filmmakers Alliance of Creative Talent). WedFACT is an online forum where some of the best wedding filmmakers across the globe come together to promote growth for both individual filmmakers and the greater industry and and it really inspires us to continually push the envelope.

We have also been featured on the RNG35 website. They make the adapter that we use in our Film Maker package Add-On and are very happy with the results we have been getting. It was a lovely surprise to find Samantha and Emir’s trailer has been featured as Clip of the Week. Click here to have a look what he had to say about our work.
