"Unmatched quality in Cincinnati wedding cinematography since 1991"

Have yourself a Merry little Christmas

December 24th, 2009 - 6:53pm | by Matt Pine

Our tagline here at Lifetime is “Making mothers cry since 1991″. I decided to add another tagline in this opening clip. I also wanted to give one of our brides an early Christmas gift with a little preview of her up-coming film. Merry Christmas Katie & Greg:)

“That was terrible mother”-a wedding trailer

December 21st, 2009 - 3:21pm | by Matt Pine

Having the camera running during the bridal prep almost always guarantees somebody will say something funny. Trying to decide were the extra lace goes in the back of the dress is were this “blooper” happened.

This was one of my favorite couples of 2009. They had a beautiful Fall day in Mt. Echo and then the incredible reception followed at the Newport Syndicate. Sara and Brad, what a great time we had capturing your day. Here’s a preview of things to come. I’ll be in touch soon.

“So glad you guys laughed at the right part”-a wedding trailer

December 15th, 2009 - 8:12am | by Matt Pine

Timing is everything. The rhythm of this toast was impeccable and the “punch line” was perfect. Courtney the MOH and the bride’s sister pulls off one the the funnest moments at a wedding reception I have seen. Katie and Logan we still have another couple weeks, but thought you’d enjoy a preview of things to come.

I’ll be in touch soon,

Ladaska Enters-the moment

December 9th, 2009 - 4:16pm | by Matt Pine

I think God gives us a handful of elated moments in our lives that just stand out. The birth of my two children and my wife of nearly 22 years walking down the aisle. These are a couple of mine. THE BEST part of my job is capturing one of your top 5: the moment the two of you make eye contact on your wedding day…..magic. I love it when people (men too) tell me our films make them cry. That’s a good thing. (Btw, we hand out custom boxes of tissues in our studio). Thanks to KPL of Your Dream Day for the idea.

The reason you may shed a tear is b/c we here at Lifetime are recreating that moment for you. Someone once told me “Art is the process of recovering the sensation of being alive”. Our shooting style is just let life happen, you’ll find emotion. I wanted to bring a fresh look to this wedding, so I collaborated with two great videographer friends of mine who did an amazing job: Scott Reith from First Image Films and Andy Reith from R Max Films. Thanks guys:)

Theo and Ladaska: their moment

enjoy,

Wedding Highlights

An Afternoon in the Park-A highlight Reel

December 6th, 2009 - 2:11pm | by Matt Pine

Outdoor weddings are my personal favorite. There isn’t a better light designer than God. Although you do run the risk of having rain while celebrating outside, when the weather does cooperate there’s absolutely nothing else like it. I love the sun shot Dan Shallenberger captures in this latest Highlight Reel. Laurie & Mohammed, you’re production still has a couple of weeks before we deliver, but as you can see, it’s coming along very nicely.

I’ll be in touch soon:)

A wish for Katie

December 1st, 2009 - 6:58pm | by Matt Pine

We capture absolute magic during some toasts. Katie’s dad telling her all his wishes came true that day was just some of that magic. This production is turning in to quite a nice showpiece for us here at Lifetime. As we went through all the footage we kept finding gold, just some incredible moments in time as you’ll see.

We’re putting the finishing touches on this one Katie and Jon. I’ll be in touch.
