The challenge of making a wedding video lies in the leading roles. But I have found that therein also lies the joy. I get the privilege to shoot real people. People who do not have acting or performing experiences. They may be people who don’t naturally feel comfortable in front of the camera, but they are two people who are in love, and that’s really the best kind of people to have on film. Joe is not an actor and Yelena is not an actress. They have never starred in any production of a love story. But when I saw this clip again, the scene with the polaroid camera in the beginning, my stomach fluttered a little. That’s love. You can see it. You can feel it. And the best part was that I had nothing to do with it. It was all natural. It was all them. Like I said, people in love are really the best kind of people to capture on film.
Joe and Yelena are great. They are great people, but they are even greater together. When I first met them, I’ve already had that impression about them. But as time passed by, even after their event has passed, they have become more than the people who hired me to capture the biggest moment in their lives. They have become my friends.
Congratulations again to Joe and Yelena!
And here is a preview of their wedding same day edit.
Enjoy,
