mykonos | greece

Here's some photos from Mykonos.  Mykonos Town is unlike anything I've ever been to.  The town is basically a labyrinth.  Three days there and I was at no point able to figure out where I was.  :)

snuck up to do a timelapse in an abandoned building. here's the photo.

oia, santorini, greece | sunset

here's a couple of photos from last evening's beautiful sunset.  tough to find a spot, but managed to squeeze between a sliver of the crowd at the last minute.

in europa.

For the last three weeks, our team has been filming non stop all over Europa.  We've shot a wedding in Spain, a 10 day birthday celebration in Tuscany, and have taken side trips to Croatia and Greece.  We're very excited to show you what we've been up to, but for now, a sunset from our villa in Tuscany.

Ciao!

teresa + john | to love to cherish

one is a tv producer. the other is an architect. one is confident. the other is reserved. the difference in personality is quite evident as is the affection for the other. and despite the rain that threatened to put a damper on the day, spirits ran high throughout. wedding coordination by seasons of life events seasonsoflifeevents.com song - oh my stars by andrew belle produced by fisheye studio fisheyestudio.com

jon + emi | nice.

every once in a while, you have a couple that changes you. they force you to really take a look at what you're subject really is. kind. sensitive. and the ability to push you as a filmmaker to come up with something that matches the story you're trying to tell.

with jon + emi, there was a certain lightness and easiest about them. emi is one of the sweetest brides we've ever filmed. she patiently taught jon how to correctly crack an egg open without the yoke coming out (it worked the second time).

we also discussed the term "nice." while hiding from the rain prior to their first look. she mentioned how jon had used the term often early on in their dating relationship. and without my prodding, she made sure that this ultimate moment would ensure a complement. and of course, it did.

we used a lot less steadicam on this film, and focused more on composition, with the occasional crane or slider. we wanted to approach this one more gently, to match the hue of our couple. we think we achieved it.

tony+nikki+bryce | two prayers . turtle bay resort

What makes a wedding special is the people. When two seperate lives and families unite for this one occasion. And sometimes, there's a third life. As in Bryce, the charming son of Nikki. =] Tony, an active soldier, finally won Nikki's heart after years of pursuing. Here's it in Tony's words, "I am in the Army and went to Iraq twice. 1st deployment was 16 months in 2006-2007. And the second deployment was 12 months in 2008-2009. I actually proposed to Nikki on my 2 week R&R (Rest and Recovery) in April of 2009. I spent 2 days with her, proposed, then left the next day to hawaii. After a few days I came back to Oregon and thats when she said "of course".  And then I went back to Iraq."

We documented their day as if it was any other for Tony. Waking up and hitting the gym is a regular. But for Nikki, it was anything but. With sweeping views of the ocean, and being surrounded by all her loved ones, she donned a stunning red and white wedding dress! It was seriously cool! She also used another red gown for the reception, then changed back into her original wedding dress. =]

Maybe the best part of it all was that Nikki's father was able to minister her wedding. It was one of two prayers he had for his daughter that day. The other, obviously, was Tony. =]

We always love to shoot at the only resort on the North Shore of O'ahu. Mahalo to all the staff for the accommodations the previous evening to gameplan for the day.
