  • Barinder + Melissa – 2 Worlds, 1 Wedding

    Cultural traditions retain a beauty all their own, but when those traditions merge with another culture’s, a whole new tradition of beauty is formed. Such was the case with Barinder and Melissa’s wedding. These two had a two day wedding, each day a tribute to their separate but now converging cultural and religious traditions. The first event, which took place on May 22nd, 2010 was a tribute to Barinder’s background: a traditional Sikh wedding. The second event, on May 23rd, 2010 was a tribute to Melissa’s: an outdoor Church ceremony.

    Originally the plan had been to complete a “next day edit” for each event, but upon discovering the multitude of similarities between the two traditions, we decided to do a single “post-ceremony” edit. And so, the final S/NDE included footage of not only the traditional Sikh wedding but also the outdoor church ceremony, which took place just an hour and a half before the video was shown to the guests.

  • Main Aur Mrs. Verma (‘Mrs. Verma & I’)

    A Bollywood Style Music Video showing the newly wed couple Mr and Mrs Verma. This is a pre-wedding video that was shown just before their entrance at the reception.

    The response was extremely overwhelming.

    Production Notes:

    With over 40 hours of practicing and 3 days of filming, ‘Main Aur Mrs. Verma’ is one of our biggest project to date.
    The outdoor dancing shoots took about 3 hours to film in 15 degrees below 0. Kudos to everyone who danced in that bitter cold.

  • Deepan + Ausra – Their Story

    Few weeks ago, we posted our Journey to Bahamas which set the stage for Deepan + Ausra’s love story. This was filmed with our new gear including our HD Cameras.

    Note: The underwater sequence was filmed by Ausra and Deep. Now they are on our roster of creative cinematographers 🙂

    The final 10 minute short film/documentary will be shown on their wedding on August 28th, 2010.

  • Save the Date – Teaser Trailer

    Last year, Sapna & Shawn came to us for something different not only for their wedding video but also their pre-wedding video. The moment I met them, I knew exactly what I wanted to do for their pre-wedding movie.

    After hours of dance practice, sets and planning, we produced a very different kind of a short film consisting of bollywood dancing.

    This is just the teaser, as the final video will go online on weekend of Wedding. April 2nd, 2010

    Here is Main Aur Mrs. Verma (aka: Mrs. Verma & I)

  • Nimita + Derek – Ceremony & Reception

    On September 4th & 5th, Nimita & Derek had their hindu ceremony and reception in Brampton Ontario. Nimita is originally from Toronto while Derek from Chicago but they met when they were professors at St. Louis College of Pharamacy.

    We never met the couple as they flew in just days before the wedding to take care of the remaining fine details which their parents had looked after. Full of energy and character, Nimita + Derek are one of those couple that immediately catch your attention.

  • Stephen + Shirley – Wedding Highlights

    It’s been a while since we have added anything here. The reason is no more than lots of work in the editing room.

    Today we have added wedding highlights from Stephen + Shirley Wedding held on September 26th, 2009. A very humble and enjoyable couple to be with, Stephen + Shirley met us early this year and immediately booked us. We spent a full morning session with them at Niagara Falls back in May which can be watched here.

    For now enjoy the highlights

    Ella + Wojtek had a very small wedding of approximately 60-70 people at Old Mills on September 12th, 2009. It was certainly one of the smallest weddings that we attend with a lot of friendly people, family and of course the couple.

    As our cinematography team is working towards putting together video highlights of the day, here are some of the images. Enjoy.

  • Evy + Richard – Wedding Trailer

    Yes, we have been slow with updates lately due to busy wedding season. With that now over, we will be posting 2-4 times a week here with photos and cinematic videos.

  • Brenda + Jitesh – Next Day Edit

    Brenda Mok came up to us earlier this year showing interest in our wedding cinematography work. She and her husband Jitesh had a hectic schedule as they both work in Chicago and came here to get married in the presence of their families.

    Although, we met Brenda once and spoke to Jitesh on the phone, it seemed like we had known them and their families for a long time. That is one of the things we cherish on the wedding day aside from capturing the most beautiful day in a couple’s life.

    The following is the ‘Next Day Edit’ of their wedding which was shown at the reception on Sunday. The following piece is something different than our normal edits where everything happens in more or less a sequence.

    Here, we did our best to go back and forth between the spiritual festivities and bhangra dancing based on the beat of the music and lyrics.

  • Anjali + Shane – 4 Day Wedding

    Rather late but finally here. Shane & Anjali got married on August 2nd with 3 days of events preceding it. The event consists of Mehndi, Sangeet, Chodda Rasam, Ceremony & Reception. Every event had it’s own unique. While Mehndi and Sangeet were more fun oriented events, ceremony and chodda rasam were more of traditional and emotional events.
