Mark, as always really great stuffs. It's really great to see all solid this solid work in all these different styles from those on this forum.

I've been a huge fan of your work for years now (since I started watching wedding videos), and still am.

Thanks for sharing your work yet again Mark.

Love the pace ad the music used.

I've learned a lot watching different styles from different people all over the world (yours in the forefront).

happy New Year!

Hi Jason,

Thanks. Isn't the internet wonderful. Back in the 90s we had to wait until conferences to see great work from others.

Your use of audio adds a lot to the finished product. It must be really nice to have a great sermon to work with...I wish they were all like that one and the one you just shared.

The only thing that bothered me was when you hear the bride's voice over, but see a slowmo shot of her delivering her vows and the audio and lips don't match. For some reason that bugs me.

Hi Ethan,

Thanks. They don't all sound like that, but we get our fair share of good ministers.

It used to bug me too, but I got over it. ;-) The thing I stay away from is showing the Bride say her vows in real time and then seeing her in more of a VO mode with slo mo vows. I go with one or the other, but not both in the highlight.

Hi Travis,

Thanks for your input.

When I was going through her vows, I loved the shot of her that I used first. That shot was actually from the end of her vows. When I'm going through their vows, I'm looking for great emotional looks. I watch for the Brides reaction to the Grooms vows. This Bride almost looked in pain as the Groom said his vows. She was trying very hard not to cry and it just wasn't a good look for her, so I had to settle with the shot you saw.

Totally understand. Sometimes going with what's best isn't apparently obvious to anyone who hasn't seen the footage. Sounds like you made the right call.
