Cait + Chris | The Ashford Estate | Forever Lucky Films

The Ashford Estate remains one of the most spectacular locations for a wedding.    Long tree-lined dirt road.  Barn for ceremony.  Bigger 'barn' for the reception and beautiful French Revival styled Mansion.  So, if you're going to choose a location and if it's going to rain you can't find a better spot than Ashford.  Even indoors, every detail was designed to be the backdrop of your dream wedding.  Okay enough about that.

I've been lucky to shot a few weddings for the families involved.  Loved them all and really turned out better that I could have even hoped.   I've mentioned it before but when I edit I have to edit to music I like.  There's no one that I like more than Radiohead, but it took a subtle but intense Gigamesh remix to match the visuals of one of my weddings.

whatwearewatching: Peaking Lights - "Dreamboat"

Peaking Lights have been having a great summer.   I love their album Lucifer and love this video from directors Jordan Redaelli & Jason Miller. Apparently it has something to do with Urban Outfitters which makes sense after watching it. Still cool.

Big wedding party + Huge Family.   Crazy fun day.      Tom Mattera was with me shooting on the second camera and I'm glad he was.  Too many people for just one camera.

Enjoy!

Gen + Matt | Villanova & Overbrook Golf Club | Forever Lucky Films

Gen & Matt's are the perfect match. It all came down to a classroom at Villanova where they spotted each other and as Seinfeld would say - yada, yada yada- then they got married. We weren't there for the yada, but that didn't matta because we were their for the wedding? Fittingly, the wedding was held at the beautiful church at Villanova, followed by the the reception at the spectacular Overbrook Country Club.

 Every week I get to meet with different vendors at their venues and they stand out as one of the finest. One of the best photographers you can find, Shea Roggio, did all the heavy lifting and we were lucky to ride his coat tails a bit.

We spent a sweltering day in Stone Harbor filming a house on 91st Street. Amazing property with a huge pool and amazing kitchen. The kitchen ceiling is stunning.

I really love this video.  A little different feel.  Music is by Bat For Lashes who I've been a big fan of for some time and new album dropped recently.  David Allen worked the second camera with me. As a note, he got to stand in the shade and I did not.
