When we first met Laura with her wedding planner and we listened to the importance of Laura’s grandparents, we knew that something special could grow from this. Fortunately Laura shared this passion and after a conversation with Mossy via skype, plans were set to fly to New York. The greatest thing about creating a story is that it unfolds as it happens.

Our team spent a week in New York, and with a busy schedule wanted to ensure that they captured the vision and connections of the stories filmed in Australia. The crew came back with some brilliant footage – now to the editing.

For Laura & Mossy, their Life story was shared with their guests in two parts. The team created this proposal story and used it just prior to their reception entrance. The scene at The Windsor was set and what an amazing entrance it was.

As a parent, I know how important family is…sharing moments and remembering special times are what creates our memories.

This story was the primary element of Laura & Mossy’s Life story. With both of Laura’s Nona’s playing an important part in their day, what better way to capture their love and share how important they are than to actually film these moments. Both families are amazing – their love is heart warming and we are thrilled to have created this for not only Laura & Mossy, but for all their family.

However we had a challenge. Sadly both of Mossy’s Grandparents were no longer here and we felt that finding a way to represent this was truly important. In our meeting with Laura, she mentioned a cook book that Mossy had – it was perfect!!!

A Same Day Edit is something that is indescribable – one can never fully appreciate the emotion of sharing it until you have been a part of it.

For Laura & Mossy, this completed the story of their day. There are so many elements that make this complete that you just have to watch it.

With both the ceremony & reception at the Windsor Hotel in Melbourne, Laura & Mossy’s wedding story has taken them across from New York to Melbourne. With a blend of rituals, their vows were heart felt…you could feel their love in their words, the tone and their expressions as they shared their commitment. They truly have a love story.

Our team has had an amazing December and I am humbled with one of the most beautiful complements that Laura’s dad said – “we are not videographers…we are artists!” A perfect day to complete an amazing year.

Thank you to all the family who have helped us make this beautiful movie.

With special thanks to Dave from dnmweddingfilms.com.au and Jason from xsight.com.au who filmed with us on the day

Andrew & Francesca are ballroom dancers and met in Venice. Andrew is American and has made Australia his home. We were fortunate enough to organise a visit to New Jersey to visit Andrew’s home town and filmed his parents. Francesca kept this surprise for almost a year which was tough sometimes, knowing that we all knew but he didn’t

On the day of their wedding we shared their lifestory and Andrew was blown away. To see his room back home and share some amazing stories that his parents recounted was a gift that we feel privileged to share with him.

Same Day Edit

Andrew & Francesca’s wedding story will be an all time favourite…one that I will treasure for many years to come.

It’s a rare occasion that you meet clients who absolutely love your work that they would actually change their wedding date to accommodate you. I remember this time so vividly and recall my first conversation with Andrew. I knew at that time that we would be booked for their wedding day. After confirming with my initial client and receiving a call from Candice from Mackenzie Creations, I had to apologise that we were unable to film their day. A week or so later, Candice called back and said they are changing their date – I was stunned to say the least & literally teared up. It was humbling day for me…to have a couple who valued us so much.

So on this note we knew that we needed to exceed every presentation that we have ever done. Having their lifestory to present prior to the same day edit, Andrew & Francesca celebrated their wedding at Ascot House. It was great to work yet again with Sean from Dansk photography & have our colleague Michael from allure assist us on this day.

“Once upon a time, a little boy came into the world with a beautiful smile that lit up the world.

This is a true life story of a little boy who at 6 months of age was diagnosed with leukemia. His battle endured for some time and in the new year of 2011 things were looking promising. Life should be lived to the fullest. Life is unpredictable – it may not be fair and curve balls can get thrown out of nowhere.

As we filmed this family, the appreciation of living life and enjoying the simple things was something that often I know many including ourselves, take for granted. Vaughan and his family are reminders to enjoy every second that is before us – life is too precious not to.

My sincere gratitude to Ffyona & Patrick from pass-the-parcel for offering their talents and making a day even more beautiful. Thank you also to Myrooren Wimalendra from the Royal Children’s hospital for giving up his time to chat with us. And above all, thank you to the family of Vaughan for allowing us to share their journey and re-tell their story.”

We knew that this couple had something amazing together. During their lifestory shoot, David was so caring and tender with Rose, in a way that was romantic and chivalrous. We travelled along the Calder Hwy to Mount Macedon, the two of them riding their bikes – David always behind to make sure Rose was safe.

On their wedding day, their bubbly personalty that we also came to enjoy shone through and made for some fun moments. Starting with games and finishing the night at the Manningham Function Centre Doncaster, we had the privilege to again work with the talented Andrew Noble & accompanied by Kiet Luu as our support cinematographer.

Mark and Andrea are two beautiful people. Their kindness and love are endearing and you cannot but adore them.

We believe that each person has a story…when we find a story it’s easy to bring into life what ‘one’ would consider normal parts of their day and make an amazing memory. Mark grew up on a farm in the beautiful beach side of Torquay. Their family grows flowers. It was immediate that this part of Mark’s life played an important role in his day.

For Mark & Andrea’s wedding, we visited the farm, shared moments of family at work & watched the care and love that went from growing these blooms to the final bouquets. Mark’s sister Dani, a florist, assembled the beautiful flower arrangements for the whole day – from table arrangements, bouquets to corsages, colour and love surrounded this wedding.

This wedding is beyond special. There are so many wishes I have for Mark and Andrea…above all I wish them an eternity of happiness.

Love Always

But this is not their love story – this is their wedding highlight. Keeping in true fashion, our amazing couple made our day super fun.

I’m not giving their wedding story away…you’ll have to watch it.

I often think of what effects me most about a couple and for this new family, I feel it’s the innocence of love. This will be one of the things I will remember most about Frank & Elianne.

Francesco & Elianne’s feature film compliments their Same Day Edit. I would have to say that Frank & Elianne’s wedding was one of the most filled receptions that we have been part of. So many things were planned from the dance troupes to our presentation…it sure kept the room buzzing. It was great to work with one of our very good friend’s & talented colleagues, Peter Szilveszter to produce this fun filled feature film.

Having an all in one location was brilliant and it sure cut out the normal travel time that we have on a wedding day. Dean joined Ben and his groomsman as they went off to have a cut-throat shave. It’s sounds pretty severe and when Dean came back, he was telling me how tricky it was to get between the razor and the barber…lol, but he did

This clip brings a smile to my face…loads of fun, character, joy & radiant love.
A great day with a great couple and a cool photographer

What an amazing event filled with a beautiful and traditional Hindu wedding ceremony at the Shri Shiva Vishnu Temple in Carrum Downs Melbourne.

Their story began many years ago when they first met at Nara’s home. As both were living in different locations, distance divided them for sometime. Their love however endured and brought them together to celebrate their unity.

A true romance with a beautiful couple – enjoy the feature film of Narayani & Anujan

Yes, it rained but this didn’t stop our amazing couple having an amazing day. And when you look at the stunning scenery and listen to the beautiful words that were shared during the day, all other elements are a glimmer of a magnificent day.

So with our very good friend Andrew Noble at the mast for photos, we continued on our natural trail of making their memories come to life.
