Bear Brook Valley Wedding Video: Michelle & Ryan

“When looking for a videographer, my husband and I wanted our video to be professional, classic, and something we would enjoy watching for years to come. Once we saw Greg and Dierdra's work, we knew that was the exact aesthetic we were looking for. All of their work is stunning and really captures the emotions of the day. My first phone call with Greg was so pleasant. He was kind, enthusiastic, and thoroughly explained what we could expect on the day of if we were to book with them. After seeing their work and speaking with Greg on the phone, it was an easy decision for us to move forward with booking them. Greg and Dierdra were incredibly professional throughout our entire day. We had a lot of moving parts and strong personalities surrounding us, and they were calm and professional with smiles on their faces all day. Our sneak peak, cinematic highlight, and full length film were all delivered within the promised time frame and exceeded our expectations. Greg and Dierdra produced a video that will help us relive our perfect day for years to come, and we are truly so thankful!” - Michelle & Ryan Google Review

This Video Was Filmed & Edited By Lorenzo Media Productions

Michelle and Ryan had so many beautiful moments on their wedding day. My husband, Greg, and I are so honored to have captured these once in a lifetime moments on video. After reading Michelle and Ryan’s review of Lorenzo Media Productions it seems like they are over the moon with our services and we couldn’t be happier for them! They were such a great couple to work with.

The wedding day took place in Fredon Township, NJ at the gorgeous wedding venue, Bear Brook Valley. This new jersey wedding venue has a stunning bridal suite. The room has so many windows which is great for lighting purposes and an amazing view of the outdoor ceremony, lake and all! Now, I have to admit, most brides want their hair down for the photos and video however, Michelle was our first bride ever to have her hair in a pony tail for her wedding! When the hairstylist and makeup artist were finished, Michelle sat up from her chair and walked into the main room of the bridal suit surprising everyone! She looked absolutely stunning! Her beauty radiates throughout her cinematic highlight video that you can view right here on this page. :)

From there Michelle and her bridesmaids popped champagne to celebrate her special day. Then, she scooted everyone out of the room for her intimate note read. “These past three years have been the best years of my life...for the longest time I always thought I knew what I wanted in my counterpart until I met you…you have been everything I’ve always dreamed of and so much more…you’ve shown me so much love over these years and have supported my unconditionally, that I can’t wait to make you my wife.”

It’s times like these where I, as a videographer, take a second and realize just how precious my job really is. I’m documenting beautiful words spoken that will never be spoken again after their wedding day. - uyy, I’m such a moosh tearing up as I write this. Okay…just getting myself together so I can tell you about the rest of the day.

They decided to do a first look so we took them towards the bridge to set the mood for a romantic scene. Ryan was definitely in awe of Michelle when he turned around to look at his beautiful bride…and guess what? Not only did we capture that on film, but Greg always mic’s up our grooms to get their reaction and the words spoken during the big reveal. But we’ll save the audio for the couple to listen to on their own in a more intimate setting. That way they can cry and not me this time… :)

There were so many scenic locations for photos and video at Bear Brook Valley. We started at the rustic swing hidden in the back of the venue. Only the pros know where to find it! We love incorporating this into their wedding film, it’s a must every time. The sun was peaking through the trees as Ryan pushed Michelle back and forth on the swing. A great way to create motion for the videographer!

After that, Michelle walked down the aisle with a beautiful sunset behind her and they both exchanged their vows. Then it was on to the party where they danced the night away with the bridal party, friends, and family!

Congratulations Michelle & Ryan! Wishing you all the best!!

THE WEDDING OF STEPHANIE & MARTIN IN SEASONS CATERING WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP NJ

Hello Everyone!

In today’s blog I have a big topic that is very popular amongst bride and grooms. It always seems to add to the pre wedding gitters and the nervousness leading up to the wedding day. Couples tend to obsess about this the week of the wedding doing all the research they can, hoping for a better outcome. Can anyone guess what I’m talking about? The weather! Typically rain seems to be the main concern.

Well I’m here to tell you that it’s not! To be honest, from a videographer’s standpoint, I feel it actually adds another layer to your video creating a sense of warmth and coziness. When it’s portrayed the right way, you can really get some unique footage. Oh, and let’s not forget that when the rain stopped we took them to the outside garden in the soft lighting. So you won’t be seeing any harsh sun in our shots. This will also help with your wedding photos! You can see how we’ve added these shots into Stephanie and Martin’s wedding video below. The film came out beautifully!

Stephanie & Martin,

Thank you for choosing us to film your wedding day at the Seasons Catering!
