Kim + Grant

Ever seen two people so clearly in their own world and so in love that you sorta feel like you’re eves dropping on something? But you don’t wanna leave cause its so stinkin sweet? That is how I felt while creeping behind my camera during Kim + Grant's vows. Oh dear goodness – you HAVE to hear these vows. No, that's not right, you need to experience these vows. I’ve never heard anything like them and feel so blessed to have been a part of this day. This couple started dating in high school but waited 10 years to be married while suffering through several years of the always horrible ‘long distance’. Wicked long distance. Kim was in LA and Grant was in Boston. Now they are both in Boston and FINALLY together. We are so happy for this amazing couple – salt of the earth these two. Congratulations Kim and Grant J

Fair warning – I cried through most of this ceremony.

Jamie + David

What any absolutely amazing two weeks we've had. If you don't follow me (Mac) on twitter or instagram, then you might not know that we've spent the last two weeks in Perth WA Australia. We were down there shooting a wedding and extended the trip so we could have a little holiday time to celebrate the end of our crazy season. The wedding was breathtaking, we met some amazing people, ate some incredible food, and we can't wait to share more :) But that will have to wait... We've been so fortunate to be able to travel to some beautiful cities to capture weddings. One that truly stands out to us is Jamie + David's which was held in nearby in Victoria on Vancouver Island. Erin and I haven't been able to spend much time there but when we arrived we saw clearly why Jamie + David decided to hold the wedding Victoria. It's simply beautiful. Jamie and David are from Washington State but currently live in LA. When we first talked with them over Skype we instantly clicked - such a strong and instant connection with this couple. We were curious as to why they decided to hold their wedding in Victoria. They said that being from Washington, the pacific northwest held a special place in there hearts and coupled with their shared love of travel, they just knew that Victoria was the perfect spot. Family travelled from all over to see these two get hitched.

The day before the wedding we met up with Jamie and David for brunch at a rad little restaurant in Victoria called Jam Cafe (a-MA-zing!). We visited for a while, talked about our shared love of good music, and enjoyed great food. After hanging with these two and seeing how relaxed they were together, we knew this wedding was going to be something special. We took note of all these things and knew how important it would be in the telling of their story. Check out the film below to see what we mean…

Jamie and David thank you for allowing us into your lives and for being so warm and welcoming to us! We truly feel like we've been long time friends :) Can't wait to meet up again next time we're in LA!

We had an aboslute blast working with the amazing Ashley and Verlon of Dragonflight Photography! It's always a joy working alongside them. Also this was our first wedding with planner Brianne Makanani and we truly hope it's not the last. She is awesome!

Jackie + Darrin

Summer is over. How nuts is that?! We've been shooting non stop and it's been so so fun. We feel so blessed to be able to create films for some extraordinary couples all ova this great nation (aka CANADA! duh). However, since our summers are so full of weekend shoots (and strangely a lot of mid week weddings this year), we don't get very much down time. Needless to say we love the Fall season. Like LOVE this season. We LOVE fall. Like if you were to ask us, "Hey Mac and Erin, what's your favorite season?" We'd answer "Uh - FALL!" and yell it a little bit :) We love this season mainly because it means we're one step closer to Christmas, but also because it means we have a little time to relax, its appropriate to start watching movies again (instead of going outside), we can perhaps go on a quick trip, watch You've Got Mail (don't you just love New York in the fall?!) and get back into the editing groove. When we look back on our summer one of the highlights for us was fer shure Jackie and Darrin. The most important part of Jackie and Darrin’s wedding (besides actually getting married obviously) was friends and family. One thing that came up time and time again during our meetings with them was how they wanted to make sure everyone had the time of their lives. And the thing I remember most about their wedding? How much stinkin fun it was. Honestly, Mac's cheeks were sore (and extra rosy) from smiling so much.

Jackie is hilarious, sarcastic and super quick. Darrin is likely the most well spoken groom that has ever been. He is also hilarious. And together this couple was a dream to shoot. They were able to be themselves completely for the entire day and laughed SO much. Nothing better then a bride and groom who genuinely enjoy every part of their wedding day.

A massive thank you to the always amazing Jenna Smith of Revel Events. We LOVE getting to work with her! Always so much fun!

Amelia + Andrew

Amelia and I went to school together for 8 years and graduated (if you can believe it) 9 YEARS ago! Fun facts about Amelia:

-She always always had perfect hair. No friz. No flyaways. Just consistent perfection.

-She played flute in band (and ROCKED it).

-She had a broken treadmill in her bedroom. She still has that treadmill. It’s still broken.

Amelia was one of those people I wish I could have kept in better touch with after high school, so when she contacted us to film her wedding we said “YES!” right away.

Then I met Andrew. This sealed the deal. He was funny, relaxed and smiles all the time. He was also clearly crazy about Amelia, which made me like him extra J

When we met with Andrew and Amelia we quickly got really excited about their wedding. The backdrop was the incredible Furry Creek Golf Club in Squamish - amazing views everywhere you look. We knew we wanted to be able to shoot the surrounding area, which was only really accessible by golf cart. So we tagged along with Andrew as he golfed with some friends in the morning. This also really allowed us to capture Andrew at his most relaxed which is always a huge plus and makes a big difference in the film.

The entire wedding day was full of fun and emotion, and we felt that this was best summed up in Amelia and Andrew’s personal vows. We don't want to give too much away… so maybe you should just check out the film.

We always get SO excited when we are fortunate enough to work along side Shari + Mike... the incredible photographer duo. They're the raddest!
