Rubeeta + Narendra — A love greater than love.

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.

Sanctuary in Prince Edward County

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.

Jess + Misha — You knocked my socks off hard.

As Jess and Misha’s offi­ciant, Tracey, so elo­quent­ly puts it near the open­ing of this wed­ding film: love can’t be defined by any sin­gle moment. It’s all the lit­tle moments. It’s every moment.

Love can’t be defined by any sin­gle moment. It’s all the lit­tle moments. It’s every moment.

This is a sen­ti­ment that not only rings true for Jess and Misha, but also for their multi-layered nar­ra­tive, which draws from their read­ings, cards and vows to cre­ate a piece that weaves togeth­er each moment from this incred­i­ble day. Whether it’s some­thing as mon­u­men­tal as the couple’s chore­o­graphed hip-hop dance rou­tine or some­thing as spon­ta­neous as Jess peak­ing out her hotel win­dow to catch Misha and the grooms­men walk­ing by, each moment — big or small — is a key com­po­nent of this beau­ti­ful­ly com­plex sto­ry. con­tin­ue read­ing »

Leah + Marco — Lee found her Fini.

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.

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.

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 »

Brittany + Mitch — You are the protein to my salad.

As lay­ered and intri­cate as this sto­ry is, Brit­tany and Mitch’s love lies at the heart of it, pro­vid­ing a con­stant to the nar­ra­tive that makes each ele­ment of their day flow organ­i­cal­ly into the next. Whether it’s the couple’s own per­son­al vows, a rabbi’s address, or a loved one’s speech, they all lend to the sto­ry of Brit­tany and Mitch and the love they share, which is infec­tious by the way it emi­nates from every sin­gle frame of their wed­ding film.

With tru­ly per­son­al vows exchanged moments before the cer­e­mo­ny under the pine trees that line Cam­bi­um Farms’ back field, a mag­i­cal Jewish/Macedonian cer­e­mo­ny accent­ed by the per­fect­ly dif­fused sun­light that made its way through the holes and gaps in between the wood­en pan­els of the barn, tra­di­tion­al dances, an inti­mate first look, and all the moment in between each of these mile­stones, Brit­tany and Mitch’s wed­ding film tugs at our heart strings and gives us all the feels.

Angela + Barry — You are my home.

You won’t find big­ger fans of the odd weath­er we’ve been giv­en in Toron­to this sum­mer than us. Yes, the con­stant threat of thun­der­storms is unwel­come, but the cli­mate on either side of these storms yields the most per­fect of shoot­ing con­di­tions — over­cast skies, vibrant colours, beau­ti­ful clouds, and moody scenes (you may remem­ber us say­ing just this just a few weeks ago). It’s not the typ­i­cal fore­cast a wed­ding cin­e­matog­ra­ph­er usu­al­ly hopes for, but despite calls for rain on almost every sin­gle wed­ding we’ve had this past sea­son, we’ve been con­sis­tent­ly on the per­fect end of each storm. That’s where Angela and Bar­ry come in. con­tin­ue read­ing »

Melanie + Carey — We make such great memories.

With a beautifully-crafted cel­e­bra­tion tai­lored to their clos­est friends and fam­i­ly and spread across a cou­ple of days amongst the sun-kissed vine­yards of Nia­gara on the Lake, Melanie and Carey’s wed­ding is one of the most epic films we have ever put togeth­er. Start­ing with the exquisitely-told sto­ry of how they met at a par­ty in Toron­to, the nar­ra­tive goes on to take a life of its own using their speech­es and vows to tell the sto­ry of their day, their rela­tion­ship thus far, and what it has and will become. It’s a com­plex and inter­wo­ven nar­ra­tive that frames all the dif­fer­ent ele­ments that make this film so spe­cial: the bohemi­an, picnic-style rehearsal din­ner at the Wood­burn Inn, their per­fect­ly infor­mal speech­es, the inti­mate cer­e­mo­ny tucked away on the edge of the Ridge­point Win­ery vine­yards, and the rus­tic open-air din­ner that followed.

It’s a com­plex and inter­wo­ven nar­ra­tive that frames all the dif­fer­ent ele­ments that make this film so special.

Featured on WedLuxe’s Winter/Spring 2017 Issue

WedLuxe Magazine Spring Winter 2017 Issue

Snowy days are for perus­ing the lat­est issue of Wed­Luxe Mag­a­zine and check­ing out Rouzhin and Naram’s wed­ding at the AGO Art Gallery of Ontario. We’re so hap­py to be fea­tured in the mag­a­zine and blog as the wed­ding video­g­ra­phers for this jaw-dropping cel­e­bra­tion and all of its Marie-Antoinette-inspired details.

Why do we love this wed­ding so much? Aside from com­plete­ly trans­form­ing each room at the AGO into enchant­ed gar­dens (bal­leri­nas et all), Rouzhin and Naram kept their love and their guests at the heart of their day. Their touch­ing vows pro­vide an inti­mate nar­ra­tive that grounds their sto­ry amongst all these grandiose ele­ments. con­tin­ue read­ing »

Shealyn + Michael — Between the shadow and the soul.

The first time we met Shea, we were run­ning around the AGO in Toron­to putting togeth­er a same-day edit for Kali and Edward. She had stopped by to help with the decor and we briefly talked about all the amaz­ing­ness she had in store for Blake and Corey’s day the fol­low­ing year. It would prob­a­bly make sense to add that Shea is a crazy tal­ent­ed wed­ding plan­ner and design­er with an eye for the rus­tic and romantic.

Being big fans of her work, and hit­ting it off on a few dif­fer­ent indus­try nights and galas since then, we were absolute­ly thrilled when she reached out to us to be their wed­ding cin­e­matog­ra­phers. con­tin­ue read­ing »
