Here is our latest and greatest, everyone. Max and Inna’s wedding took place in the windy city (and it really was windy!). They are such a fun and spontaneous couple, which you are about to see. They attracted so much attention downtown, and they were basking in it. Oh, and one more thing…their wedding was just simply gorgeous!

Professional Wedding Videography- Do Your Research
Any decision concerning your wedding should obviously done with careful thought. It is always wise to do your research and get advice and referrals from others. Videography is no different.
A good start would be to ask other brides/grooms. Start with the ones you know and then consider joining web forums to get more opinions. You can also ask videographers for a list of their recent brides you can contact. It is important to cosider each opinion, whether they got professional services or not.
When you talk to recent brides they will most likely overflow with information about their wedding and the services they had. Here is a list of some questions to ask recent brides:
- If you had to pick between photography or videography, which would you choose?
- Why did you choose to have professional videography?
- How did you find your videographer?
- If you had to do it all over again, what would you do differently about your videography arrangements (if anything)?
- Were there any particular things you had in mind when shopping around for videography?
- What differences did you see between different videographers as you interviewed them?
- What “lessons-learned” have you come up with concerning your wedding videography?
- Do you know of any recent brides that wouldn’t mind answering these same questions?
After talking to several people, you will already start to develope a good idea of what you need to be looking for. This will give you a great start on your own search for professional wedding videography.

Viktor and Ludmila’s Wedding Music Video// Venice, FL
Hello Everyone. Glad you can join me. Today’s video is a local wedding we filmed right here in Venice, Florida. There was so much emotion; the tears, the looks, the vows (which are in the Russian language)….it’s great to be a part of these wonderful moments.
Viktor’s and Luda’s wedding was full of culture, beautiful decorations and great food. See for yourself.
Until next time,

Watching Your Bride Walk Down The Isle
This post is for all the grooms out there. Everybody knows that most classic wedding day milestone of all time is probably the bride walking down the isle. The bride especially knows this. And so should you. Believe it or not, there are grooms out there who get distracted just before this moment, and for whatever reason are not looking at the bride as she is entering the room. The bride, obviously, has trouble understanding why her husband-to-be is preoccupied with something else. (OK. Can I just make a confession right here..I am one of those guys! I know! What was I thinking? Well take it from someone with experience- you wife will not never let you forget it.)
Anyway, since the groom usually finds himself “killing time” in the moments leading up to her grand entrance, it is hard to keep completely quiet and focused. Many grooms are likely to carry a conversation with his best man or the officiant in a muffled manner, but DON’T DO IT! Don’t forget that you are wearing a wireless mic that picks up even whispers. Later, when your video is being put together, all of your distractions and conversations will be evident. (Yes, we can edit those parts out, but the wife says the grooms have to be warned. 
)
In the end you will both be happier if you just stick to the plan. And if you don’t, well, good luck..

George And Irina Wedding Music Video// Anderson, SC
Good day to everyone. Several days back we had a mini cold front come through this part of Florida, and it was so refreshing, but now we are back to just plain hot weather. Sigh….I can’t wait until the weather cools down. We are traveling this weekend to South Carolina this weekend. Hopefully it’s much cooler up there.
Speaking of South Carolina, here is a music video of a wedding we filmed there. George is from Florida, Irina is from California, but they got married in SC. Ahh..love really does bring people together. They had a gorgeous wedding. There were so many wonderful details, as you will see.
They are perfect for each other, aren’t they? We all thought so…

Article On HD Wedding Videos
Hey everyone. I found a great little article explaining why to choose HD video for your wedding. If you don’t quite see the difference in HD, Jason Magbanua illustrates it briefly and clearly, using a visual.
Well, that’s it for today. Later,

Understanding Our Equipment: The Glidecam 4000 Pro pt.2
Good morning to everyone. I would like to follow up on a previous post about the Glidecam 4000 Pro. I had Igor make a very brief video about the difference between a camera on the Glidecam and one hand held. The subject was our son, Benjamin, who was very uncooperative for this project. Instead of running for the camera, he was running away from it, so please bear with the constant scene changes. What else would you expect from a 2 year old? 
I hope you were able to see a difference, dispite all else. Feel free to comment or ask questions.

First Birthday Party//Same Day Edit
Sometimes we get to do something completely out of the ordinary. In this case, we filmed a birthday party for returning clients. Their son, Timmy, was turning one and they wanted it professionally captured. I really had fun with this same day edit.
In any case, we love seeing old faces again
