Well it has been a fun few months since our move here to Virginia. The hardest adjustment for me has been the loss of the vast network of business contacts I had in California. I was a member of BNI, The Chamber, and Toastmasters and was up early most mornings. That’s different here. I am currently on the hunt for an early morning Toastmasters club.
I just shot another wedding video last weekend in Alta Vista the couple and their entire family were a joy to work with. Her dress was beautiful…the word that comes to mind was exquisite. The Tuxes were very cool, they had a mild pinstripe and almost had a retro look to them. I will post a sample when that is updated.
I also just shot my first family portraits it went really well.

This video was shot on May 17th for Amy Cannelongo and Derek Murrell where they were married at 2 p.m. in the Pate Chapel at Thomas Road Baptist Church in Lynchburg Virginia.
Another fun couple and one more reason I love what I do.
Congratulations you two.
May the Lord Bless you with a large family and many happy years together.
Remember to laugh.
This is not the entire video but only a highlights reel of their special day.

This is a wedding we shot here in Virginia at the Peaks Of Otter in the summer of 2007. I was not living here at the time but had planned to, so I flew with my gear to shoot this wedding from California. Have camera will travel.
