BACARA SANTA BARBARA CA WEDDING VIDEO


Matt + Miranda

Modern 8 Films first wedding of 2012 blew in off the California coastline as Miranda Becker and Matt Pitts exchanged vows on this windy Santa Barbara day. Despite the downpour of rain the day before the wedding, Miranda was beaming with joy and excitement as she gave her rehearsal dinner speech and reflected on the past 6 years that had led them to this event. It was such a sweet moment and Modern 8 was so glad to be present for it. Matt and Miranda, we hope this film captures the laughter, warmth, and love of your day. And to steal a quote from the ceremony, “May the road rise to meet you, and may the wind be always at your backs, as you travel on this journey together.” Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for allowing us to tell your story.

Filmed at The Bacara Resort in Santa Barbara, CA. Photography by Kristen of Beaux Arts Photographie.

SAN DIEGO WEDDING VIDEO


Tommy + Rachel Little did Tommy know that as he fell off his skate board one day while riding to class his future wife was standing nearby. When she called him to ask if he could teach her how to skateboard he of course said yes, unsure of what it would lead too. But after a date to a soccer game when Rachel turned and asked, “Wanna go skate some more?” Tommy knew he was in love. Rachel signed her wedding card to him with this memorable question that had led them to this day. Letters, cards, vows, nerf gun stand offs… The little audio moments that told their day were very important to them. And although Ted had to take a couple nerf gun wounds for the team, we didn’t let a moment pass us by. All this became a story with a lot of fun and a lot of heart. This San Diego Wedding Video was filmed at The Catamaran Resort & Spa. Joined by Scott of Ventana Photography and wedding planner Gina of San Diego Weddings by Gina.

Review: "Tommy and I can’t thank you enough. We just sat down and watched it together and it brought us both to tears. You did such a beautiful job! You guys have such talent and an eye for putting our day together. THANK YOU! Its everything we wanted and more.  The video is amazing" -Rachel & Tommy




SAN FRANCISCO WEDDING VIDEO


1960's San Francisco

Featured on Style Me Pretty San Francisco is a city with inspiration around every corner. It was the perfect setting for Jason and Yvonne’s 1960′s “Mad Men” style wedding held at San Francisco’s City Hall. This was a wedding we could have shot over and over… We loved working with these two and found their simple city wedding very refreshing. After their city hall nuptials they walked to their reception. This allowed us to shoot them in a very natural environment, letting their story unfold as it happened. The unexpected moments, such as the pet store they passed along the way, getting stuck at a traffic light during rush hour, and the sweet glances exchanged as they walked along told the real story of their day. We endeavored to capture the city in a surreal, stylized way to set the stage for this charming love story. We were also joined by photographer Angi Welsch and coordinator Emily Blake.

Review:

"Working with Alanna & Ted was SUCH a great experience. We initially selected them because we liked their editing style. My husband works in the advertising industry and was VERY picky about how the video would be edited. After meeting with Ted & Alanna the first time, we knew it was the right decision. They totally understood what we wanted and were very good listeners. When it came time for our wedding, we didn’t have to worry about a thing. We never had to ask them to be anywhere or do anything, because they had it all covered. The results were AMAZING and the compliments from friends and family (and even a few strangers) were endless. Our wedding was posted on Style Me Pretty and I received several compliments from strangers, telling me that our video made them cry. One of my best friends from childhood’s mother is currently planning on of her daughter’s wedding and she told me whenever she gets stressed out or thinks that the wedding planning isn’t going to be worth it, she watches our wedding video at work and it renews her inspiration! Beyond the compliments though, our wedding video is truly something that my husband and I cherish and will have for the rest of our lives to remember the best day of our lives. Working with Alanna & Ted was definitely PRICELESS!”
