Trip Video – Ireland, Germany, The Netherlands

So since it’s St. Patrick’s Day and I only finished this video a couple days ago, I figured it would be appropriate to share it with you now…

Jared and I decided to take a longer trip over the summer of ’09 and visit some places we’d always wanted to go. Some of the best advice we’ve gotten from married couples about marriage is to make good memories the first few years. Since we don’t have kids yet, now is the time to explore the world together. We chose Ireland because that’s a place we both have wanted to go for a long time. We decided on the Netherlands because I still have family there – and so we could “discover my roots” hah! And we thought the history of Berlin would be cool to see as well. We definitely had some fun adventures as you will see through this video. We just brought our “handycam” video camera which we hand held so excuse the lack of quality and the bumps! hah  :)

enjoy!

…because life moves

Idyllwild 2009

Jared and I have some posts coming up but first we thought we’d share with you a quick video of our Valentine weekend. I guess when two crazy videographers get married, you get major silliness…

Anyway, we went up to Idyllwild to play in the snow for the weekend and so enjoy our silly video full of wild adventures and a movie star sighting!


p.s. the song was one of the new ones from the Fray – LOVE IT!

Our 1 year – North San Diego County

So, since it’s Thanksgiving, I thought I’d post a video regarding something Jared and I are thankful for: each other! I know it sounds cheesy but I think it’s important to remember good times and remember how we felt when we first were married. I know it’s only been a year but in some ways I can’t believe it’s only been a year! Our 1 year anniversary was just a couple weeks ago, November 10th and we have had so much fun. We actually just watched our wedding video so we could remember and there was so much we had forgotten. We had to keep pausing it to laugh at stuff that we had no idea had happened!

One thing we have enjoyed so much is just working together. Every wedding we get to experience together reminds us of our own promises to each other and our own fun day! We are just so thankful to live in a country where we can have the freedom to pursue our dreams and we’re so thankful for our life together. I’ve put together a little highlight reel of our wedding day so you can experience a bit of our wedding:)

For our anniversary we went camping up in Julian and had a fun adventure out at the Salton Sea. It actually rained the second night we were there and I loved every minute of it. Rarely does it rain in southern California and rarely are we both able to be together enjoying it when it does. So for us, to be awake in the middle of the night listening to the wind and rain in a tent, it’s like a taste of heaven! I would absolutely love to do a “trash the dress” shoot in the rain someday if anyone is ever willing!

Anyway, stay tuned next week because I still have a few more weddings to post about and other fun stuff coming soon…yippee!

DV Expo – Pasadena

Warning: Major nerdiness ahead.
So a couple weeks ago Jared and I and our friends Seth and Deseree from Zelo Photography headed up to L.A. to go to the DV Expo. For videographers, this is like heaven on earth! You get to check out all the latest digital video technology and equipment and you even get to play with it! We were running around like little children…and drooling a little. Our Amazon.com wishlist just got a whole lot bigger!
Of course none of us brought our still cameras so we only have iphone pictures from Dez (thanks Dez!) but you get the idea!
Here we are looking way too giddy – like our badges? We look all official and everything!
Here I am playing with the DV multi rig Pro! We definitely know these next few pictures look really nerdy but until you’ve tried using some of these things, don’t you judge us!
Here’s Jared playing with the Glidecam X-10! So anyone who wants to buy us a Christmas present…here is what we want:
This is the same equipment just from a different angle. You start sweating in it pretty much immediately, yikes! BUT, it’s pretty much the most amazing thing ever. That and the Brevis (which is sexy, right Seth?) add that to the Christmas list as well:)
droooooool!
It was a very educational day. We didn’t win any prizes from the drawing but we had a lot of fun getting inspired. My mind is blown!

Jared and Danielle – November 10, 2007

, That’s right! We’re posting something from our very own wedding. So brides, I know exactly how stressful planning a wedding is, no matter how organized you are, I was just there, doing the same thing. This clip is Jared’s entrance. Weddings seem to always be about the bride, so we decided to let Jared have some fun and have a more exciting announcement. We filmed and edited this about a week before the wedding (a little last minute) but it proved to be a fun element to our ceremony. I’ll post some more of our wedding later! Enjoy!!

Christmas Card 07

So here’s an example of what we do when we’re bored or don’t have a video to edit. We decided on Christmas Eve to make a video Christmas card (to send out Christmas Day) and make it as cheesy as possible, of course, so enjoy! and hope you had a great Christmas and New Years…
