To say that The Four Sea­sons Hotel in Toron­to is a wed­ding videographer’s dream is an under­state­ment. It’s mod­ern aes­thet­ic relies on a care­ful bal­ance between min­i­mal­ist and bold design, accent­ed by strik­ing lines and mir­rored sur­faces to cre­ate its dis­tinc­tive look. It’s a place that’s dear to our hearts. So, you can imag­ine our excite­ment when Staci + Mitch told us their entire wed­ding day — morn­ing to evening — would be tak­ing place at the Four Sea­sons. con­tin­ue read­ing »

Set on an expan­sive, tree-lined fam­i­ly farm in Ontario, Laya and Charlie’s wed­ding not only cel­e­brat­ed their mar­riage but also the rela­tion­ships and friend­ships that have shaped and mold­ed these two into the peo­ple they are today. The pres­ence of their friends and fam­i­ly is felt through every beat of this nar­ra­tive as we see their guests’ jour­ney, from their ren­dezvous under the big tree over­look­ing the pond, through the woods and across a field to the cer­e­mo­ny space, and over and through the tall grass to the clear-roofed tent where they shared a beau­ti­ful recep­tion din­ner. con­tin­ue read­ing »

In a lit­tle cab­in in the mid­dle of the Cana­di­an wilder­ness, Fiona and Dou­glas spent the morn­ing of their wed­ding day togeth­er. He steamed her dress; she got her make-up done. He played gui­tar; she sang as she got her hair done. When she was fin­ished, they got dressed togeth­er and drove to their cer­e­mo­ny at the Ganaras­ka For­est Cen­tre where, under the canopy shel­ter­ing them and their loved ones from the pour­ing rain, they exchanged per­son­al vows. Togeth­er, they did away with just about every con­ven­tion and tra­di­tion regard­ing bride and groom prepa­ra­tions — and it was absolute­ly mag­i­cal. con­tin­ue read­ing »

There was some­thing that stayed with us from our very first meet­ing with Rubee­ta. She want­ed a wed­ding cin­e­matog­ra­ph­er that could look beyond the grand­ness that can gen­er­al­ly char­ac­ter­ize south asian wed­dings. She want­ed us to cap­ture the still­ness of the inti­mate moments amidst all the cer­e­monies, cel­e­bra­tions and per­for­mances. In short, she was speak­ing right to our hearts.

Our entire style and film­mak­ing approach is based on the idea of bring­ing per­son­al­i­ty and an emo­tion­al, impact­ful nar­ra­tive to com­pli­ment extrav­a­gant cel­e­bra­tions; hon­ing in on the lit­tle moments that speak about the cou­ple, their loved ones, and their over-arching sto­ry. It’s some­thing we’ve done for mul­ti­ple NHL wed­dings, Marie-Antoinette-themed muse­um soirees with bal­leri­nas, multi-day bohemi­an vine­yard cel­e­bra­tions, etc, etc. And yet, Rubee­ta inspired us to take that approach a step fur­ther. Not that it was dif­fi­cult, either. Rubee­ta and Naren­dra togeth­er exude that very still­ness — a qui­et calm­ness in which only they exist. It’s a mag­i­cal, spir­i­tu­al thing to behold.

There was an over­whelm­ing sense of excite­ment sur­round­ing Leah and Marco’s wed­ding day, not just to cel­e­brate a mar­riage 10 years in the mak­ing but, to every­one in the know, it was the last evo­lu­tion of a wed­ding that had changed, shift­ed, and trans­formed many times in the months lead­ing up to it. What was in its ear­ly stages a Cal­i­for­nia vine­yard wed­ding became an ele­gant and ethe­re­al affair at the King Edward Hotel’s recent­ly reopened Crys­tal Ball­room, brought to life by Blush and Bowties and White Oak, whose pop­py arrange­ments had us like whoa.

Leah and Mar­co first reached out to us when they stum­bled upon our work last Sep­tem­ber. They loved our cin­e­matog­ra­phy, our sto­ry­telling, and the way our wed­ding films framed a cou­ple and the emo­tion and inti­ma­cy of their rela­tion­ship and their day. They want­ed just that, but one thing that was clear from the begin­ning, is that they want­ed their film to explode with excite­ment. con­tin­ue read­ing »
