Who doesn’t want to be famous? Okay – maybe it’s a little far fetched… but for the past two years we’ve been named Best Videographer by WDIV’s 4 The Best. We’ve heard that if you win three years in a row (back to back to back), that you automatically receive ROCKSTAR-status and a high-five from our mailman.
It only takes like 37′ish seconds to vote. Please do it… and only ONCE. We’re in it to win it – but not by cheating. So tell all your friends, family members, even people you don’t talk to. We love you for it.
Style Me Pretty Inspiration to Reality has created quite a buzz recently – and we’re honored to have been a part of another team of rad-tastic wedding professionals who created a GORGEOUS ITR for Style Me Pretty. Here’s a direct link to the Style Me Pretty blog…
The Epic Motion approach to the Inspiration to Reality shoot:
One of the first things we did when we showed up on set for the shoot was meet the models. We quickly found out that Caleb and Laura were good friends of Jess and Nate (the photogs) and that they’ve been married for six years… within the first few minutes we were laughing together and really connecting with them. We also learned that they didn’t love their wedding photos from years ago and they didn’t have a wedding film (shame-shame). They jokingly said they were going to replace what memories they did have from their wedding with the ones that would be made that day.
My thought: let’s really create something awesome for them that they’ll adore and that will be a reminder of their love for each other as well as something that shows off how stinkin’ good looking they are (the latter part was SUPER easy to do). Of course, in the process the hope was to capture all the amazing details from the A-list of vendors that were hand picked for this shoot.
We chose not to use any natural audio as well as decided to forego much of the “behind-the-scenes” stuff for the piece and create a fun little music driven film. Ultimately my thought was that this could become a small treasure for Caleb and Laura and their family.
Here’s a list of the people and companies that were involved with the shoot:
PS. We also created a version without the text list of vendors for Caleb and Laura – who knows – they may actually tell people that this is from their wedding day… so DON’T tell ANYONE
The colors, the music, the love… oh – and the amazing dancing! Check out the joy that is so evident in Ambereen and Sameem – it’s GORGEOUS… enjoy their wedding trailer – there is more to come!
If you’ve been around a while, you probably know that we are all about surprises. Last night we did a top secret shoot with some of our favorite wedding people. Here are a couple of stills from the film we took. Check back for more to see what it is we’re up to… PS. The [...]
I’ve known Kristen for a while now; she works at the fabulous Royal Park Hotel in Rochester, Michigan. You can imagine how many different wedding professionals she works with week in and week out and to think she chose us: SO cool. She is a stinkin’ riot, she’s pretty, she’s funny, and I’m still wondering [...]
The most important part of our job is capturing the story. This includes the story of the couple and the little stories that happen throughout the day. I love this film because you really get a sense of Lindsey and Jim – their relationship and their love for one another. I love the message the [...]
Our plane just landed a little bit ago. I started thinking about what I would write in this post to try and describe this weekend’s same day edit in St. Louis with Stacie and Ben and their family+friends. In one sentence, I would say it was nothing short of amazing. In one word I would [...]
The Epic Motion team was rockin’ in Frankenmuth all day with Melissa and Joe for their same day edit. They partied it up – with some SWEET dancing skills at Apple Mountain. My favorite part of the day was stopping in downtown Frankenmuth; there was an art fair going on and I helped them score [...]
Tara and Nate. What can I say about these guys?? They are without a doubt, two of the most fun and awesome people I’ve had the chance to work with. The day was just a blast, there’s no better way to say it. I think it’s safe to say that Tara is a little different [...]
Kristen and Shannon had a super cool – and detail filled – wedding at Pine Knob Mansion in Clarkston. Kristen is now an “official” wedding planner and definitely has skills to pull off a gorgeous event (check out her blog here)… including a pink Hummer, a Superman wedding ring (nice, Shannon!), and that cake! Congrats, [...]
