What can I say about Adrian and Karina… First things first, thank you is in order to Trish for recommending them to us. We are so blessed to be able to capture the day of this beautiful couple. We only met Adrian and Karina once a few weeks before their wedding where we just “clicked” straight away. Adrian is a very fun and down to earth guy where Karina is pretty much the same… we knew that their wedding would be exciting but they just completely thrown out our expectation..
Their wedding is all about fun and dancing. They are both very talented in dancing and so are a lot of their guests. We were like watching “so you think you can dance” on their dance party.
Apart from dancing, the highlight of their day was the double surprises. It was the funniest thing when each of them emailed us about their own surprises to one another and asking us to keep it secret from “each” of them… This also happens to all of the people/vendors at the wedding where we had a bit of laugh with. Then after that, came the gorgeous first dance, funky bridal dance, the thriller dance and the fun games where karina squish her own father’s bum…
All in all, brilliant wedding, brilliant couple and we certainly hope that they would be get all the happiness in the world… cause they deserve it.
PS: you guys have to check out the “Initial D” car that Adrian has. Ferry was staring in awe seeing how real that car was…. shame we couldn’t get them to drive it around on the day cause Adrian didn’t have the key with him!

RING SHOTS…. I’m a big fan of creative ring shots… We’ve done a lot of twirling, glowing, focus pulling and a lot of other “ings” and it is always a challenge to find a unique ring shots to do in each wedding that we do. However, this time I think we have nailed it! Dustin came up with the idea and everything just flew from there. Its a killer ring shot this one and I’m so happy with it.
Now back to the whole wedding (sorry!) Benny and Lala is our friend. Benny is a rather unique guy with very strong mindset of what he is as a person and how he perceive things. Lala is a very soft and loving woman who (in my opinion) completes Benny or rather “neutralizes” Benny
I just love it when an SDE has a lot of intimate moments in it. Moments that mean a lot to the people who understands it the most (the couple and their family). I love the shots of the father looking at lala getting ready. For your information we didn’t set up that shot. We try to never direct our couples on the day since we want them to have their own experience and cherish it. Also the doggy scenes were a laugh cracker at the reception as everyone was watching it. I also love how the dad was holding her hand so closely as they were about to walk the isle. These moments are the most precious and I have to say that I’m so proud to have them captured by our team… even though we can take all of the nice and grand shots that we can get, the meaningful shots are worth ten times as much.
We are so happy for them and it was definitely a great wedding last Sunday and we wish them the very best for the rest of their lives together.
The church was held in Manly and reception at the great Watersedge, The Rocks.
Thanks for watching

Finally, its finished… we have put a lot of effort and time onto making this showreel. its definitely one of the toughest edit to date since we have a high bar to be raised with the success of our previous showcase in 2009. The previous showcase won 2 awards in local (AVPA) and international (WEVA) so we are very much hoping to win more this time if we can.
The biggest challenge in editing this showcase is indeed… choosing the clips.. we have soooo many wonderful clips that we really love from our previous clients. Most of them actually had a special meaning to us and while I was editing the piece, it brought back a lot of memories to me about each of the couples that we have filmed.
4 1/2 minutes is definitely very very short for this showcase. We have tried our best to put in clips from every weddings that we shot, but we do apologize if there’s any clip that couldn’t make it in because of space issue. We love all of our work, no doubt about that and trust me when I say, its very very hard to make some decisions of which clips go in and out….
So, again, please allow us to give our biggest thank you to all of our clients that have trusted us in capturing their moments. Its a big thing for us and we hope that it goes the same to you all.
Well, we hope that all of you will enjoy this showcase as much as we do and we hope for another great year with a lot of great moments to be put on the next year’s showcase
Just one last thing, this showcase will not be possible without each of our team members so I guess its the perfect time to acknowledge all of them:

John & Thao had a very beautiful day yesterday with their friends and family. Everything was so smooth and exciting
I just love it when a same day edit just blows you away.
When you would watch it over and over again and it just gets you everytime with its millions of memories, emotion and excitements. It doesn’t even look like a same day edit anymore.. while it is still done in the same day.. edited in 3 hours. Its just a priceless thing to watch not only on the wedding day, but during any other day as well. Amazing isn’t it..

Jen & ejohn is a very lovely couple. They were kind enough to fly us to Melbourne to capture their wedding day. I could tell that Jen was very nervous on the wedding day while Ejohn was just very excited to get married to her. What a lovely couple they are.. You can see how they had a ton of fun on their wedding day through this trailer. The highlight of the day for me was their MC… the MC was their friend and he definitely rocked the house with his jokes and games. Very well recommended!
Please Enjoy!

Hi guys, we want to share this little trailer of a prewedding shoot that we did in Perth. Cindy and Mario got in touch with us last year with their amazing story. What makes them different is that they had probably one of the biggest hurdle in their relationship which now holds a big part of their lives.
Their relationship is based on their faith in God and their love for each other. Listening to their stories made us believe in faith and how important it is to fight for the ones you love.
We had a blast shooting with this couple and their friends in Perth. We would personally like to thank Larry, Mel-2 and Diana for their help and hospitality as well as Cindy’s family (mum and the three brothers) who welcomed us with very wide opened arms and delicious food…
Last but not least, thank you to Cindy and Mario for their trust in us and their good heart.
We can’t thank them enough, this is what keeping us going with our dream and creativity. People who appreciate us and calling us friend.
This Trailer is our way of saying thank you to all of the perth peeps that welcomed us..

It was a beautiful day for Lilian, Andy and their 20+ groomsmen and bridesmaid. Yes… they have a massive bridal party.. the biggest that we have ever encountered so far. That really proves how Lilian and Andy are very lovely people and caring for their friends and family.
We were once again teamed up with the cool photographers from 321 Photography Alphonsus and Grace. Always great to catch up with them and (of course) I was on gear talk with Alphonsus most of the time.
The ceremony was in the beautiful blues point reserve overlooking the harbour bridge. I think it is one of the best spots in Sydney for wedding ceremony. Reception is at the Shangrila Hotel which was awesome and elegant.
The SDE was shown at around 10pm last night and the responds were great! I love it when everything falls into place in the end. The audio and the projector went well with no hiccup. All of our hard work pays off when we see our film on the big screen with everybody else.
Well, I hope that you guys will enjoy this SDE as much as we do! Enjoy
It was great filming Vincent & Lisa’s wedding last Saturday. There were a lot of things that add to the excitement. Vincent came in well recommended by one our team member, Bernard, who is also happen to be the best man on the wedding. We chatted and it was clear that Vincent wanted a different and cool wedding to remember for the rest of his life. He’s got mission in hand and a lot of good fellows to support him. We were pleasantly surprised with what they put on show with their grand entrance and also, their THRILLER DANCE!!!
The Thriller dance happened around 30 minutes before our SDE showtime but we couldn’t help but used every second to put it in the SDE, and boy did that make the difference… I just love seeing people’s reaction seeing such emotional and happy moments that they’ve just experienced a few hours ago… until 30 minutes ago…
We also got to work with one of Sydney’s best photographers Vincent Lai whom I really had the pleasure to work together with.. such a nice, easy and down to earth guy!…
Please do check out the photos on the day taken by him here: http://www.vlblog.net/wedding-at-fagan-park-galston-rhodes-phoenix/
Finally, without further ado… Vincent & Lisa + the whole funky bridal party’s SDE!!!

One word to describe this couple would be “Blessed”
I think they are so blessed by God that their wedding day went as good as it gets. We can feel a lot of love going on on the day and it was very very beautiful.
Congrats once again Dennis and Sherlly. Your bridal party rocked by the way!

Santo from Paper Cranes Productions will be sharing his experience and knowledge as one of the presenters in Australia’s first Exposed|Down Under workshop
More details here:
http://www.exposeddownunder.com.au/?page_id=1346
If any of you aspiring film-makers/videographers are interested in learning more about cinematic wedding films, here’s your chance. Join us this July with other international and local presenters!
Stephanie is one funky bride and her bridesmaid were so cool.
There were so many things going on in the morning and we had to run around here and there trying to capture everything e.g. 6-10 people having make-up done, flowers arriving, mum setting up flowers, etc
It was definitely a family wedding. We really love traditional/cultural wedding since it has a lot of symbolic stuff that have deep meanings. (Although we don’t really know what they mean most of the time)
This SDE is a breath of fresh air. I really love the little stories that happened and how they flow nicely with the whole story. So many personal moments in there and that’s what its all about… real moments.. so.. we love it!
Thanks Stephanie and Dat for having us.. we wish you the most happiness you can get for your life together.
Special thanks to Jenny, the bridesmaid for recommending us to the couple

Santo & Dewi Cinematic Prewedding Film (Say Yes) - 28 december 2009
This would be one of our greatest achievements… making our own prewedding film. The story is based on how I proposed to Dewi using a lot of point of view shots of my eyes.
It was a very fun and weird process for us in making this film since we are so used to do it for other people. However, the purpose of this film was to express ourselves and to tell our true love story and I believe that we did quiet well with it. Thanks heaps to all of the peeps that helped us in making this film possible. They are: Ferry, Renny, Delia, Rendy, Deddy, Ricky and of course, all of the people that appear in the “say yes” video
I hope that this particular film would touch a lot of hearts

Our first couple of 2010! yes! we shot their wedding 2 days after we got back from Indonesia for our own wedding. So we were so pumped up and hungry for creativity! lol
The whole bridal party was a joy to work with. We absolutely had so much fun with them on the shoot. I think the Grand Entrance says it all.. you gotta check it out on the trailer ;P
Thanks guys for having us on your wedding. We hope that you would love your film as much as we do

Some of you may still remember Felix & Diana.
Henche is the brother of Felix. Shooting their wedding, it’s like a deja vu Same people, same bridal, same house, same photographer, same pastor, etc. It was a very relax and fun wedding, as we know some of their friends and families from Felix and Diana’s wedding. They are a very sweet couple. Juliana definitely looks so cute, like a Japanese doll on that day. Don’t you think so?
This trailer was done 2 days after their wedding as they want to show it in their wedding reception in Indonesia on the week after.
Thank you Henche & Juliana. We wish you a happy marriage and may God bless you abundantly!
