“It’s a HUGE regret”-a highlight reel

This is the tale of two couples who were both married in 2009. One we shot and the other passed on a videographer for their day. The latter couple: Lauren & Trey, I met at a neighbor’s dinner party last month.
Married May 23rd in Connecticut, they felt like they were well over budget for video. “Like $9000.00 over, there just wasn’t room” Trey told me ” We honestly didn’t think we’d watch it, but maybe once or twice. Plus we’d booked a top notch photographer and felt we were covered”
“It’s a huge regret” Lauren added “What Trey’s not telling you is he balled like a baby when he saw me. We have the pictures to prove it, but I think a video would have been nice too. That moment and the entire day is a all a blur”.
The other couple is Lori and Rob, a production that we’ll be shipping out this week. I went back and re-edited the moment they see each other for the first time that day. I wanted to feature it more towards Rob’s perspective. His reaction is easily in our top 3 so far this year. But I also want to ask a question: If you knew your FI was going to have this kind of reaction, how much would you pay to have it captured forever? Think about it.
Lori and Rob, it’s a masterpiece. I’ll be in touch very soon:)
enjoy,
