Nita + Gaurav | Hindu Wedding Highlights in Livermore and San Francisco

You probably saw how gorgeous Nita and Gaurav’s wedding photos turned out in a previous blog post. They were stunning! Now it is time to share the highlights reel from their special day!

I absolutely love this piece because of the romantic and easy going feel of it. The instrumental song really makes the shots speak for themselves instead of having distracting lyrics. I am really happy they chose this song!

The event was three days including a Sangeet, Wedding, and Reception. The wedding took place at the Livermore Hindu Temple and the reception took place on Treasure Island in San Francisco.  Sit back and enjoy this beautiful Indian Wedding Highlights Reel!

Raman and Kurt | Sikh Fusion Wedding Highlights at the San Jose Gudwara

I was really excited when Raman and Kurt contacted us for wedding cinematography. They were to be married up in the Bay Area at the San Jose Gudwara and were coming from Los Angeles for the events. I did not get the chance to meet them prior to their big day but we are very happy they chose us to create a masterpiece film for them and this very special highlights reel they can show to friends and family in just a few short minutes. Thank you to Hotel Valencia at Santana Row for providing the fabulous room where Raman got ready. Their reception was held at the DoubleTree Hotel in San Jose.

We love the new room added to the San Jose Gudwara. We hear it can hold a couple thousand people and all the audio is correctly set up in there so we can plug into their system quite easily for fabulous audio.

A big congrats to Raman and Kurt on their traditional Sikh wedding. We wish you many happy years together. icon smile Raman and Kurt | Sikh Fusion Wedding Highlights at the San Jose Gudwara

Minji and Wayne | Villa Montalvo Highlights Video

Beautiful day, beautiful people, and beautiful horses! This is what Minji and Wayne’s wedding was all about! They hired us sort of last minute but it was worth it for them and me! It was a beautiful wedding with amazing colors, people, music, and dancing. We had a great time working with them and are so happy they decided to have a wedding film. I will let the highlights do all the explaining.

This video was shot with 5 cameras, two Canon XH-A1′s, a 5D Mark II, a 7D, and T2i. Quite an arsenal but it really was cool to have all the angles. Their feature length film is awesome too but here is the taste!

Lisa and Tim | Wedding Highlights

I was excited to be a part of Lisa and Tim’s wedding day this year on September 5th, 2009 in Los Gatos and Saratoga. They were getting ready at Hotel Los Gatos, which, is literally down the street from my house and is so beautiful! Then we went over to the Saratoga Federated Church, and finally back to Los Gatos to the La Rinconada Country Club for the reception.

Lisa and Tim are really sweet and caring people who have wonderful careers and families. They were so relaxed the day of the wedding and their Pastor did a lovely ceremony for them. I was fortunate to just have to worry about the videography and not the photography, so I was able to operate three cameras during the ceremony by myself, do a lot of steadicam stuff etc. So yes, this was shot and edited by just one person!

Sit back and enjoy watching my most recent highlights reel for Lisa and Tim!
