Laura and Kyle's Wedding at Arista Winery | Short Film

View fullsize

We are so honored to have been a part of this beautiful celebration of love and family. As Rabbi Jim Ponet so eloquently said, "Laura and Kyle created a new world on this day," a future together that will clearly be cherished. Their love for each other and all of the people in their lives was evident in every glance and each interaction. It was a day rich with tradition, full of laughter and brimming with joy. 

Arista Winery was gorgeous with its old oak trees, rolling hills and picturesque views. It has all the elements that make me love filming weddings. The light sprinkle of raindrops that came through for a couple of minutes, cooling down the warm afternoon, brought with it a spectacular sunset.  

The day was lovely in every way and we are so happy we could take part in capturing it. Working alongside Susannah and Greg from  Susannah Gill Photographic Storytelling, Heather from Holiday Weddings and Alex from AMS Entertainment made this breathtaking wedding a joy to be a part of. Laura and Kyle could not have selected a better group to bring their wedding together. You can find the rest of this dream team below.

Featured on the Knot! | Lexie & Jose's Wedding at Thomas Fogarty Winery

There are a few things that just make me giddy when it comes to filming weddings and vineyards at sunset are one of them. I adore Fogarty, especially its views and the light. I really love the light. And the color palette Lexie chose was just lovely in this sunny and bright setting. Lexie and Jose are such a sweet couple, and they really incorporated so much of themselves into their day. They also brought together a really fun team to create this lovely celebration. Ric and I had so much fun working along side Rachel form Rachel Blackwell photography and Patty from Thomas Fogarty Winery. We are so happy to see this lovely day published on the Knot Today!
