Alive and Married!

Good morning.  
So it has been incredibly too long since we have updated our blog.. bad I know.  Bo and I have had a very busy year though!  We got married! (so now people can stop asking the question during consults, "so what if ya'll break up")  Nope, that won't happen!    


That being said we decided to take the year to slow down and really figure out how we really wanted to focus our business explore other areas in the videography realm.   While we still will be doing weddings we have done other types of projects and explored our creativity!  


So a few things I haven't posted!
First - Luke & Anna's wedding last OCTOBER! (AHH!) Anna was my intern for the NCLCP and she was absolutely adorable.  Congrats Luke & Anna!




In the first half of the year we were able to work on a VERY cool project!  We were able to have some creative control, script writing, reading etc. Junie Michael is a local automobile dealer was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award for the NC Automobile Dealer's Association! Congrats Junie! It was a pleasure getting to know you through this project!



The latest project that we have been working on is with the National Lung Cancer Partnership.  We went to their Lung Cancer Advocacy Summit  in Denver in April and were able to tape Story of Strength Interviews with various lung cancer advocates and survivors.  This is still a work in progress as we did over a dozen interviews but we are very pleased how they have turned out so far!  Check out the first three on their NEW Website!  More to come soon!


We have a few more weddings (including ours) in the pipline so stay tuned for more! We may have been quiet on the blog front but we are ALIVE and MARRIED! :-)
Happy Sunday!

Jessica + Paul - Greenville Wedding Videography

We had the privilege of filming Jessica + Paul's wedding in July.  For me it was like a high school and college reunion! Jessica was a Chi Omega with me and I went to high school with Paul. Their special day was so beautiful! I hope you enjoy their video!

Christine & Bob's Fairytale Wedding



Christine & Bob are such an amazing couple.  I was able to spend a lot of time with Christine and as you can tell from the video, she is full of personality!

It was truly an honor to be a part of their wedding.  Christine and Bob were this year's recipients of NACE's Fairytale Wedding.   Christine has stage 4 breast cancer which has metastasized to her liver and brain.  Her neurosurgeon has given her 6 months to live as one of the tumors in her brain is inoperable.  In March, NACE members stepped in to give this couple who have and continue to undergo tremendous hardships the wedding of a lifetime.  The gorgeous Sutherland set the stage for this dream come true.  Grace Beason planned a beautiful event with everything donated:


Going Greene Events, Mitchell's Catering, Alexia's Bridal, Sweet Memories Bakery, Ed and Becky Sansbury, Fleurtations Weddings, Cleveland Plant and Flowers, Katie Hamister Photography, Daniel J Pesta Photography, Focused Videography, DJ Joe Bunn, A Step to Gold, Raleigh Wedding Cars and the Washington Duke Inn--- to name a few!
