Ben and Lisa. From the Timpanogos Temple to Sundance resort, explore the beautiful surroundings and the fashionably notable bride. It was a beautiful day, snow capped mountains, warm air, green grass and pink blossoms. While editing to Coldplay’s “Strawberry Swing” I couldn’t help but feel the rhythm, dreaminess, smoothness, and modern edge, all wrapped into one song. So that’s how I decided to edit this piece. Enjoy.

So this cute photographer girl from Ontario, Canada writes us and says, “Can I please fly you boys to Tennessee to shoot my wedding?” And then she shows us the photos of the $5 million dollar log cabin (err…log mansion) that we’d all be staying in…and we say, “OF COURSE!”
Seriously, everything about this destination wedding was a dream: the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, TN with two of the sweetest and most fun kids ever (ok, their whole family was the most fun ever). We had a blast and got to try a bunch of fun new camera moves, too.
Tech info is our standard stuff: a couple of 5D Mark IIs, a bag full of ‘L’ glass (the new 100mm f/2.8L Macro with the new Hybrid IS is our current fave) and a stash of DIY stabilization systems that Ryan “McGyver’d” in ways you wouldn’t believe. Think TREES. All-in-all, it was a great experience with wonderful people who gave us all the right elements to create a beautiful engagement+wedding film.
For those of you interested in what we do, remember, time is a big component. We had three days with this couple, so if you want us to create something similar for you, make sure you BRING IT…the style, the fun, and enough time to make it all happen!
The first shot of the day was them running across the lawn and he nailed it. I knew then it was going to be a good shoot. Despite Jeremy getting no sleep I think they pulled it off together with loads of fun.
To everyone’s awesome surprise, Regina and Clifton arranged for dancing lions to entertain the guests. What a unique wedding; outdoors and by night. Here’s a short version of their highlights.
The line up: He’s a pro soccer player and she looks like she just came from a beauty pageant. For real. These two were incredibly fun and I think that was a requirement to be a guest as well. It was a perfect winter’s day but I sure had my share of sweat toting around 2 cameras, tripods, a crane, slider, a steadicam, and all my lenses and audio gear (on top of my second shooter having all his stuff). In the end, I feel like I finally get to see the payoff. Here it is. I think this one actually gets better the further into you go. Enjoy. Thanks to John for being my main man with the other cam.
