As you’ll hear quite a few times in their wedding film, Katie + Taylor have been together for 15 years — an impressive feat made even more incredible by the fact that these two met and fell in love in grade 9 🥹

We’ve said it before and we know we’ll say it again: the most significant piece of advise we can give our couples is to be fully present in and enjoy the wedding day. Truly live it. Take in every moment of the celebration.
It makes all the difference in the final wedding video.
You can feel the energy when a couple is fully invested in their day. The guests’ excitement during the cocktail hour tends to build into incredible reception entrances and wild dance floors. It’s a vibe.

There are some wedding films that are almost impossible to describe because the video itself so perfectly encapsulates a couple and their celebration. This is the case for Emma and Mark.
I mean, how do you put into words Emma’s infectious laughter, Mark’s calming presence, how palpable their love is when they are with each other, or how their wedding completely transformed Evergreen Brickworks with one of the most elaborate cocktail and reception layouts we’ve ever seen.

Set on their family’s private island in Muskoka, Madi and Alan’s celebration is one we’ve been looking forward to from the moment we met with them almost a year ago.
The two would be boating over their entire guest list for a party spanning the whole island — from Alan’s prep in the bunkhouse, to Madi’s in the main cottage, their ceremony on the dock and a tented reception on the tennis courts. There was plenty of distance for their loved ones to traverse, but there were beautiful decorations and details to be admired (as well as plenty of drinks to be had) along the way.

This combo has quickly become our go-to setup for commercial and wedding cinematography, quickly replacing our Movi Pro and C300 Mark III.

As you make your way through our body of work, you’ll likely pick up on just how important of a role music plays in each piece we put together. It’s something we get asked about almost as often as our colour grading or our lens choices, and we think that’s because we tend to make bold choices across our projects.

We think it’s fair to say that getting married in the time of COVID-19 altered many of our couples’ and our own expectations of what a wedding should be. Scratch the larger ballrooms, four-tiered wedding cakes, and ten-piece band-led dance floors and enter the intimate wedding. Because bigger doesn’t always mean better and a pandemic celebration doesn’t mean you have to muddle through less than ideal plans. In many cases our couples have more than “made do” and their big days have been even more meaningful than anyone could have anticipated.

PAUSE
We pause for many reasons: to listen, to reflect, to revere, to be present. We pause for little things — like crossing the street — and big things — like taking time away from our busy schedules to celebrate holidays and special occasions. For the past year, we’ve had to pause for our safety and pause became a perpetual part of every day life. Each of us have had our own set of compromises, disappointments, and hardships and we had to find new ways to embrace this state of being.
