Brianne | The Snow Bride
Brianne | The Snow Bride

So last time it snowed you were treated to a couple of posts of my kids outside playing.  Well, this time, we played even harder, but I’m pretty sure you’re tired of seeing them so how about a bridal session in the snow!  I called a few of my past brides yesterday morning and told them if they were in town and could throw their dress on they would be treated to a free bridal session.  Brianne was an Elmwood Gardens bride a couple of years ago and she called me back right away and was ready to go in 1 hour.  (Did you catch that ladies? She went from sitting at home with her 2 year old, to in a dress, hair up, makeup on in 1 hour!!!!  No more excuses about running late on the wedding day.)

She told me every time she sees her wedding dress she wishes she could put it on and wear it around again so I was thrilled to make her Christmas wish come true. :)

Two quick facts about the session.
1: I only wore sweatpants and a t-shirt so that I would be reminded of how cold it was outside and not freeze her to death.
2. We were only outside a total of 9 minutes.  It was my shortest bridal session ever, but I’m pretty happy with the results.

JMH Pro | Wedding Vendor Interview

I love me some wedding video.  I also love me some nice wedding videographers.  Jeff Heimer of JMH Pro fit both of those categories.  He is a talented videographer based out of Tyler.  He does great work and is really nice to work with.  We worked a wedding a little while back at Elmwood Gardens and I have hung out with him a few times since then.  This guy is the real deal and the type of person you want involved on your wedding day.

Here are a few shots from the wedding as well as him in action. :)

On to the interview!

How did you get started, how long have you been doing this?
I have been involved in wedding video since 1992.  Ever since high school days.

What is your favorite part about your job?
I like making the newlyweds feel like movie stars.  I love capturing those special moments during the wedding and knowing right then, “This is gonna look amazing on video!”

What are some things brides should look for when looking for a videographer?
Brides should look for creativity and quality. Look through a videographer’s previous work for style and attention to detail.

Why should brides book a videographer?  Aren’t you just going to get the same shots the photographer gets?
Some of the coolest videos I still have are of my grandparents during Christmas.  I can see them move AND hear them talk.  True.  A good videographer works closely with the photographer, but to have the “moving memories” as well?  That’s truly priceless.

What is something unique to your service that you are extra proud of?
I’m so proud to use new and fresh ideas for wedding video.  It makes “working” way more fun.
