Congress Hall Wedding Video | Gretchen & Sean on Super-8

Gretchen & Sean have actually been married for a decade and they have three beuatiful children.  But they never had the "wedding" wedding.  So they decided that this past May in Cape May at Congress Hall with all of their closest family and friends gathered around they would renew their vows in a way and throw the wedding that they didn't have ten years ago.

Gretchen & Sean chose to have their day documented in a nostalgic manner with Super-8 film.  I absolutely LOVE working with Super-8 film as it has such a unique and timeless look. In my opinion, Super-8 film is the perfect medium to use when filming a wedding day.  There is something about its retro look that seems to capture the day as you can see it in the dreamlike memroy in your mind and not with the detailed precision of the exact play by play retelling of video. 

We worked with some of our favorite wedding professionals this day as well from, Krystina and the staff of Congress Hall to Joy Moody Photographers, The Manic Botanic, Synergetic Sound and Lighting to the ladies from Proud to Plan.  Evryone put together an incredible day for Gretchen, Sean and their lovely family.  

Gretchen & Sean, thank you for trusting us with your family's memories.  Enjoy your Super-8 wedding film.

Leah & Paul | Ending Highlights

Leah & Paul were married at St. John the Evangelist in Philadelphia with a reception at The Union League. This is a clip from the ending highlights section of their wedding video. Leah chose to add some super-8 film to her video and I think she made a wise decision! Super-8 film just adds such a nostalgic and timeless touch to the overall video and I think she and Paul will cherish the look and style of their Super-8 wedding film for years and years.

We also had the pleasure of shooting beside one of our favorite Philadelphia photographers, Jackie Bayne of Love Shack Photo for the day as well. Thank you for being wonderful as usual Jackie.

Devon & Mike celebrated their wedding at one of Philadelphia's most gorgeous venues, Cairnwood Mansion.  They had a beautiful late spring day for their outdoor ceremony and tented reception.  This crew is so much fun to work with and we were very much looking forward to seeing Devon's family again as we had shot Devon's brother's wedding two years prior at Appleford Estate.

Devon & Mike also partnered with some of our favorite Philadelphia wedding pros too!  Our good friend Ryan Estes was shooting the photos while Erin Proud of Proud to Plan organized EVERYTHING on the day of the wedding.  We always enjoy working with friends....it just makes a fun wedding even more enjoyable.
