Luzelle's 18th Debut Birthday

Image
Luzelle's 18th Birthday I love Debut Parties.  It's vibrant, energetic and full of youthful life.  You can see and meet the youth of today.  It's interesting how they interact and behave.  This is a simple party where friends and family celebrate the 'coming of age' of the debutante.   It's a simple and humble party thrown out by the family for their beautiful daughter who just turned 18th.  I think men do have this party as well when they are 21. If you have a daughter turning 18 and wanted to throw this party, please contact me and we'll film it.  It's a very nice remembrance to your daughter that she can watch over and over.

Ellen and Martin Wedding

Ellen at her Wedding Day Probably one of my best 'solo' filmed wedding,  I took this job when I was starting videography.  Both Ellen and Martin are accommodating.  The guest are a few close relatives and friends.  It's a simple celebration that is made forever. So many challenges happen during solo-filming.  I'm alone so I needed to plan 3 steps ahead.  This wedding made me feel limited, but I believed that I can still pick up the best shots and make a good wedding video.  I would still prefer to shoot as a group.  But if there are perfect couples out there on a tight budget, contact me so we can discuss on how to make your dream wedding film happen.

Chelsea Castillo 18 Birthday Cotillion

Chelsea Castillio Grand Cotillion Chelsea Castillo's Grand Cotillion dance number brings in many types of popular dance.  It's amazing how one can actually string these beautiful but different dance steps together.  The combination of light, sound, bass, smoke machine and dance attitude brings in a whole new level of the traditional Cotillion dance.  A special mention to Chelsea as she is dancing with her debut dress! If you are planning to have a debut party or 18th birthday celebration, I'd be more than happy to capture the whole Cotillion dance for you.  Watch the below dance as it's full of power and energy!

Monica and Warren Wedding

Monica and Warren Wedding Monica and Warren's wedding were held at the Hunter Valley Gardens at Tuscany Wine Estate.  An estimated 4 hours of travel from Sydney to the location.  Destination Weddings is a challenge as videographers need to consider travel time, luggage, mode of transport etc.  But I love destination weddings and will deal with these kinds of challenges happily. I'm a landscape and travel photographer by heart so going into different locations is a joy.  Please watch and enjoy Monica & Warren's wedding highlights below:

Maritess and David Wedding

Tess and David Wedding When shooting weddings, videography does demand heavy cooperation with other shooters than photography.  The more videographers you have, the better the film.  But having said that, filming a wedding alone is a hard challenge. I filmed this wedding alone for Maritess and David.  But everyone made it easier because they always cooperate.  I had no issues and the filming went out smoothly.  Yes it can be made better with a second videographer, but this does not stop me from giving the clients an excellent wedding film that the couple will cherish for a long time.

Emma and Clinton Rainy Wedding

Emma and Clinton Wedding Kiss This is already a challenging wedding on itself because I'm the only videographer needed.  Emma is a good friend of my fellow photographer, Shilebeth, so I also helped her in her wedding.  I would normally want 2 videographers filming. Cut the long story short, an outdoor wedding with a view of Harbour Bridge, turned to a 'under the canopy' because hard rain fell.  It was hard to shoot because the full ceremony was held at the side of Strickland House.  We only had it's alfresco to cover us. Lesson's learned is that whatever challenges appear in our path, we will push forward! Clinton and Emma's Highlight Film

Chelsea Castillo Debut

Chelsea Castillo One of the most vibrant debut party I've ever shot, Chelsea is both stunning loveable.  She has a very commanding singing voice - top notched and powerful.  She is very much supported by her family in the career she's been investing.  Good luck Chelsea! This is a sample of a coming of age, 18th birthday, Debut party.  I love filming this kind of event as it's less demanding compared to weddings but demands attention to detail to get the best angles.  To find out more, please watch the video below:
