Austin Wedding Videography: Becky + Steven

Posted in Wedding Video 9 comments

Last Sunday I filmed one of Caroline’s weddings at the House on the Hill in Austin, Texas. It was actually raining on and off most of the day so we were lucky that the rain lifted and the sun came out just before the wedding ceremony. Becky and Steven wrote their own vows and also decided to meet each other before the wedding. They are truly a unique couple and I wish them the best in the future.
Being only my 3rd wedding to film, I think it turned out perfect and I really learned a lot. I can’t wait to add a video package so I can create more wedding films for my clients in Austin, Texas.

1-one cinematographer
1-5D MarkII
1-Tripod, 1 GlideTrack, 1 Merlin Steady Cam
24-70mm2.8, 70-200mm4.0, 28mm1.8
audio was captured using a Zoom H4N paired with sennheiser ew g2 wireless lav mics

Very difficult to shot a wedding with only 1 camera but here it is. A little creative editing helps a lot!

Grace & Steven: San Marcos Wedding Video + Photography

Posted in Video 1 comment

This video was made with the Canon 5d MarkII. I was the ONLY photographer covering this event and I shot both the Video and Photography, that’s why all the video is on a tripod. Hard work, but I love it!

Grace and Steven have been together for many years now, and decided to tie the knot on April 17th 2009 in San Marcos at the Crystal River Inn. Here are some of my favorite pics from this very small but intimate wedding.
