We are excited to be heading down to Melbourne early next year to record the wedding of Rebecca & Teoddie. I had the good fortune to meet up with them recently and get to know more about them and their story. It’s nice to sit down and learn not just about the wedding but also how the couple came to be together and the lead up to the wedding itself.

Rebecca & Teoddie have also made it easy for family and friends to follow their journey by creating their own web page. This is  a perfect way to share information and details so everyone can share in the fun.

You can view their page here .

A quick search on google shows a few different services that allow you to simply create your own wedding page. I think it is a great idea.

For those of you on Facebook (if you are not a fan of Encore Media yet then what are you waiting for???) I have also seen the WeddingBuzz application being used very effectively as well.

We have teamed up with our good friends from Uber Photography to produce and exciting new service for all our couples and families.

With the new advances in video and camera technology it is a natural progression to join the best of both worlds into one video slideshow. The new Uber Fusion package combines the amazing photography skills of the Uber team with the talent of Encore Media to produce a unique memory of your family. As a parent myself with children that are growing up too quickly it is immediately obvious how important it is to capture these moments.

You can also view more of the Uber kids portrait work by visiting the Uberkidsblog.

Is this the world’s oldest wedding film? It’s pretty amazing to watch. No sound, black and white but still awesome to see what happened, who was there, how they moved etc ….I wonder if our current couples grandchildren will be looking back in 105 years time enjoying the wedding videos we produce today…..I hope so.

Wow…I didn’t realise it had been so long since the last post. Lots happening here so will update post more over the next few weeks.

Today we have Sonia & Toese highlights. Another long day, another exciting mix of cultures. This was a great day for shooting video. Never a dull moment as you will see from the powerful and beautiful pacific island dancing, lebanese dancing and traditions and some performances from the bride and groom to top it all off….hardest part was trying to fit it all in one highlights.

Late last year I had the good fortune to visit Malaysia for the wedding of Angeline & Jack.Travelling light with only one camera and no tripod it was by far the hardest I have worked on a wedding.

However it was also one of the most interesting and enjoyable weddings I have attended. Angeline, Jack and their families were fantastic hosts and looked after me all the way.

Kelvin helped out with a couple of shots in the video and photography was by the very talented  Kurt Ahs.

Linda & Sanjay had another action packed day with Civil Ceremony, Tea Ceremony and Hindu Ceremony all in one day. Doesn’t leave much time for rest but I am sure they were able to relax the following day. The wedding day was all about celebration and sharing good times with family and friends.

After months of preparations we have finally moved and started to settle into our new studio location. We have a nice new meeting area and seperate editing space (which tends to get a little messy at times).

Downstairs is occupied by Kate and Chris of Uber Photography and we are very excited about working together on a number of future projects.
