An Intimate Affair

Carrie and Jayson’s wedding was one of a kind for us. It’s not very often that we get the chance to capture a wedding that consists a relaxed and intimate number of close family and friends, 18 to be exact. Their wedding was held at the one of a kind San Ysidro Ranch in Montecito and produced by the uber talented Alexandra Kolendrianos with floral by Flowerwild Designs.

Also, Jessica Claire has posted a handful of the amazing shots she captured on here site, you can check them out here.

Pelican Hill Wedding on Film

This is an update to an earlier post we did on a wedding we shot both in 16mm motion picture film and digital cinema at Pelican Hill – Newport Coast.  It is so amazing the moods and emotions that come across through different mediums.  I am such a fan of motion picture film and when it’s combined with the flexibility of digital cinematography, wonderful results occur.  This is a beautiful short film produced in a combination of Black & White and Color 16mm film at the beautiful Resort at Pelican Hill.

Romantic Pebble Beach Wedding

What an amazing weekend. We had the pleasure of heading up the coast to Pebble Beach to shoot Bianca & Micheal’s wedding at the beautiful Lodge at Pebble Beach. Their wedding took place on the scenic 18th hole with an expansive view of Carmel Bay.  As always, it’s a pleasure to work side by side with Ira Lippke and team.  Please enjoy the trailer and I can’t wait to share more as we continue to work on their film.

Emerald Bay – Laguna Beach Wedding

We shot a beautiful film almost a month ago in the community of Emerald Bay located in Laguna Beach, Ca. Courtney and Andrew asked us to produce their wedding film in a combination of 16mm film and our High Definition digital cinematography formats, the result was stunning. We shot with both B&W, color reversal, and negative film to distinguish certain parts of the day with just the right look. We had the pleasure of working with the very talented Lisa Vorce of Oh How Charming! and we were introduced to the amazing photography of Lisa Franchot, who was a pleasure to work with. Check out this short film and hopefully we’ll be sharing more as their film nears completion.

Santa Barbara Vintage Wedding

Back in August we were asked to produce a film for wonderful clients that held their event in the hills of Santa Barbara. When I say hills, it’s kind of an understatement, Day and Max’s ceremony was held on a mountain ridge with a 360 degree panoramic view of the surrounding Santa Barbara countryside. Lisa Vorce of Oh How Charming! worked her “one of a kind” talent to produce both a colorful fiesta inspired rehearsal and a very organic, intimate wedding day. To top it all off, Aaron Delesie shot the editorial inspired photos. For Day and Max’s wedding film we used both a combination of our Digital Cinematography and the very classic and romantic 16mm film; which was mastered in High Definition.
