Mandy & Anthony September 11th, 2010

Wedding recap of Mandy & Anthony's awesome day. First we get to Anthony's place and everything looks right out of a Scorsese movie...guys are dressed to kill lol love it !!!
Caroline & I start shooting and the more we shoot the more fun were having.
Were working with Kathy Youssef of Fleisher Photography.


I cannot say enough about how nice Kathy is & how respectful and understands what we have to do. Although we pride ourselves working around photographers... we shoot mostly video journalism...we don't set up shots per say but Kathy is always checking if we got what we needed !!!
Merci Kathy to you and your team.

Next stop Mandy's crib... Viva Italia !!! She is so nice to us its impossible not to like her... wow she is stunning in her dress.

Then a beautiful down to earth ceremony where Anthony was obviously very moved by seeing Mandy for the first time that day. We then moved on to parliament hill where everyone witness this fun bunch...peoples couldn't resist coming over and taking a look.

The reception was the icing on the cake... by this time nobody has picked an official song for the recap. Its 10:30pm Mandy asks Rocco & Maya of Five Star Entertainment


to play a '90's classic "You're a Superstar" by Love Inc.
Rocco & Maya rock great light show & sounds... within a minute the song is cued up from their extensive library of music.
Mandy asks me Syl "can you like shoot us singing it and put it in the video". Done !!!
The rest is video history.

Ashley & Jesse September 5th, 2010
"WOW" Classy, Cool & a very elegant setting for two people in love. I cannot say enough about how nice they were to myself, Caroline & Raheel. The day went by so fast & smooth which means we had a great time shooting it.
We also had the pleasure of working with a long time friend and amazing photographer Frank Cava. This guy keeps it fun for all of us. His work can be seen here:

Shabnam & Pravin

August 21st, 2010 wedding of Shabnam & Pravin at the Hilton/Casino in Hull. These two were absolutely, positively, completely in love in its purest form !! It was important for Pravin that I begin the recap video with the poem he read to Shabnam later that night during the reception. A real romantic & true gentleman, Pravin paid attention to every minute details preparing this special day. We first headed up to Shabnam's room. When we met her, Caroline & I new right away that we were going to shoot something very special that day. Shabnam exuded so much love ,friendship that it is impossible to not like this person :-)
The rest of the day just flew by.
We had the pleasure of working with Igor Pavlov a great photographer & his assistant Mila.
