Martin & Jessica - 22nd October 2010


Jess and Marty's wedding was held on Friday 22nd October 2010, an awesome wedding date as it is the same as my parents who are still happily married :)

The ceremony was held at St John's Anglican church in Fremantle and the reception was held at the Indiana Restaurant in Cottesloe. Jess being a wedding planner herself made sure that everything ran smoothly and on time. I loved Jessica's details on the day, I especially loved the colour of the flowers and her blingy shoes! Very glam. Jessica's wedding ring was chosen and bought in South Aftica without her ever seeing it, by her romantic husband Marty. Jess saw it for the first time when Marty put it on her finger at the ceremony. A 5ct yellow diamond, wowee I nearly cried when I saw it!


The photographer Kim from Kim Grubb Photography took the bridal party around Fremantle for photographs. Jess and Marty are so photogenic they look so cute together!


Jessica had organised fireworks to the surprise and delight of all her guests, it was amazing to be so close to them.

At the reception Jess and Marty enjoyed their sparkling wine with edible gold flakes! So cool. This is something that I will have to try one day.


Thank you both for allowing us to be part of your special day. You guys were so much fun! Have a fabulous honeymoon xxx

Greener Horizons - Wheatbelt farmers securing their future with tree crops


This corporate video which we just finished filming and editing, features five Western Australian Wheatbelt farmers telling the story of their journey in adopting a particular tree crop or tree crops.

Here is the intro clip for the video which explains what the rest of the video is about.





It has been really fun going to these remote locations, seeing how the farmers live. It was an eye opening experience and such beautiful places.




The above pic is of Craig and I waiting for a time lapse to be finished.

The farmers and their families were kind enough to let us into their homes, feed us and put a roof over our heads for the night. Here are some pictures that Craig took along the way and some good behind the scenes pictures too.






Esperance Lakes are Drowning!


We have recently had the pleasure of completing post production on the documentary “Wetland Wonderland – The story of the Lake Warden wetland system”. Produced & Directed by Serena Shaddick, the video looks into the threats to the Esperance wetland system. Featured is the impact that the last 100 years of land clearing in the area has had in causing excessive ground water levels which is flooding the lakes. This has resulted in an increasing loss of bird habitat and the drowning of the surrounding vegetation.


The film was arranged by the Esperance Regional Forum as a medium to engage the wider community and land owners. We are happy to hear the film has already received great community feedback. The film will be available to view online soon. If you are interested keep an eye on our facebook page for details.

Our first blue screen gig!


A big thank you to the talented actors we had the pleasure of working with recently who all managed to deliver a lengthy script direct to camera. We didn't even need to get the autocue out in the end.

The production was for a clever interactive training resource for educating Home & Community Care workers which was developed by Evolve Curriculum Development & Training,
with video components including location shots and “blue screen' video scenarios provided by us. This all coming together to create a memorable training package to engage viewers.

Aaron & Paula - 1st October 2010

Our first wedding back into the wedding season and boy what a wedding! I do believe this is the biggest and most grandest (is that a word???) wedding we have ever been a part of. The amazing Touched By Angels crew planned this whole event with Paula and Aaron and what a fabulous job they did. I remember standing at the ceremony marquee with my mouth hanging open. Chandeliers, flowers, it was just magical. I had the same reaction when I walked into the reception at Frasers at Kings Park. It was so well planned, no detail was spared.

To top it all off they arranged to have the Perth skyline come to life with a fireworks display off a barge in the swan river. They certainly created the wow factor with all the guests. I cannot wait to work with them again.



Paula and Aaron were such an easy couple to video, so laid back and in love, a dream couple to work with.



Erica Serena created these beautiful set ups in such a limited time, my hat went off to her that day, she was a machine! Check out her blog to see the professional pictures of the day, plus all the wonderful details of the ceremony and reception.




We cannot wait to begin editing this wedding, thank you for allowing us to be part of your special day, Paula and Aaron. Have a beautiful honeymoon.

We are pregnant again!

Craig and I are thrilled to announce that we are pregnant with baby number 2! I am currently 18 weeks pregnant and due on the 17th March 2011. Thank you to all those who have given us their well wishes so far. We will be finding out the sex of the baby next week, so watch out for updates :)

Our 12 week scan, bubs just kicking back watching the uterus go by.

Chayce's Baptism

Recently my gorgeous nephew Chayce (and now Godson) was baptised. Here are a few pics from the lovely, intimate day.

Chayce loved having the water poured over his head, he wanted to get in and have a swim!




Jas dressed up for her cousin's baptism. She's not thrilled about not being allowed to run around the church.

Here is Chayce opening up the present we got him. Even at this age he loooves presents!

Feedback Celeste & Sean's Wedding - 3rd January 2010

Recently we received this wonderful feedback from a client of ours. It warmed our hearts and made our day :) It really is so considerate when clients take the time to do this.

"Hi Kristen,

I couldn't let another day pass without thanking you and Craig for your amazing efforts with Celeste and Sean's wedding video. Jeff and I went up to Perth over the weekend to see our girls, and were so excited to watch the wedding video with them. No money or words could ever express our happiness and gratitude to you both for capturing in motion the love and happiness of our family, and matching it so timely with the chosen music of Celeste and Sean. You both have a very powerful gift in projecting the true essence of what is most important in life.....and we are so thankful to you.

I hope our paths cross again some day
with love and thanks

Deanne
(Mother of the Bride)"

Hung & Ru-Wen 29th May 2010



Ru-Wen and Hung were married last Saturday 29th May 2010. Their wedding was the last of our wedding season and what a wedding to go out on! Ru-Wen looked gorgeous in her Vera Wang wedding dress, WOW!



The very talented Alana from Alana Blowfield Photography was the photographer for the day. I love her style of candid, elegant photography. It really makes our day easier when the photographer likes to make use of natural light. I look forward to seeing her professional pictures on her blog soon. All of our photos here are from Alana's set ups.



I loved Ru-Wen's bridesmaids dresses, they looked like Greek goddesses, very elegant.


The wedding ceremony was held at UWA sunken gardens and the reception was held at the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre. We were so lucky to have such beautiful weather all day long. Loved the Tiffany & Co wedding rings


Thank you very much for choosing us to be part of your day. Have a lovely honeymoon and we'll be in touch soon.
