I hope everyone had an enjoyable holiday weekend! I can’t wait to share with you my very eventful weekend which included an awesome shoot on Friday for Eli Cook’s new album, two wonderful weddings that I will be sharing with you soon, and a busy Monday in the office producing this very awesome video!
I am very excited to share with you my very first Fusion Style Engagement Session! Fusion Style is a new term that we use to describe a coverage where we mix photography with cinema. With our new cameras being able to shoot both HD Video and high quality photographs we have really taken advantage of this to expand the types of coverage we offer. The one thing I really love about video is it’s ability to compliment the photographs in telling a story! I was really inspired to start offering this type of coverage after talking with The Bebbs (who were named one of the top 10 wedding photographers in the world by American Photo Magazine). What they told me is that often a picture can show you a moment in time, but it might not be able to tell you the full story. LIke when you see a picture of a couple laughing during a toast, you can see that the speech was funny, but you can’t hear what was said. Now with the advances in technology it is easier than ever to share the full experience of that moment with you!
With Heather & Chase’s Engagement Session I wanted to share a little more about them then you usually get to see. After having a fun afternoon shooting during the Cherry Blossom Festival in Washington, DC we sat down on the mall and talked about everything from what they loved about each other to a funny moment involving hot sauce and pizza! Needless to say we had an awesome time and I am really looking forward to being a part of their wedding this coming weekend!
I would like to thank Erin Manfredi who assisted me in shooting video, Alison Harbin for helping with lights and schlepping equipment through DC, Ashley Chipman who did an awesome job editing everything together, and finally Heather and Chase for being so awesome! I hope you enjoy our first official Fusion Style Engagement Session!
