many of you may not know this but my start in the wedding business was with video.  that is why when i started my company i wanted to offer videography because of how powerful the end result of video can be.  people tell me all the time they stalk my blog and that is fantastic.  your not alone.  i also blog stalk.  mainly videographers and wedding garbage but one that i consistently check and cry when i leave is still motion from canada.  i don’t think anyone in the world can touch these guys and what they come up with.  they are hands down the most talented cinematographers i have ever come across.  before you ask me if i can do this, they have 4 extremely talented gifts from god shooting with some of the most expensive equipment money can buy.  i look to them for inspiration and strive to have a 10th of the talent they do.  editing and shooting.  enjoy

last week i met up with the mychendberg family for some portraits of the entire family.  since their kids are busy being kids it is hard to get everyone together in the same place.  it was nice meeting everyone and hope you have a wonderful new year.

happy birthday love.  you are everything to me and although i probably annoy the hell out of you, i got nothing but love for you.
