The B.I.G. Video Show is HOT, HOT, HOT 2008-06-09 09:29:04 Our new feature B.I.G. Video Show is a big smash so far. It's been hot, and yesterday it was really hot. In fact the whole wedding was really hot. We filmed in 95 degree heat on the beach at Ocean City, NJ. Now is that dedication or what? LOLFirst I have to give major props to my film crew of Lynn and Matt. They did a fantastic job of shooting while I edited. Then I have to give props to one of m
Getting a call or email 2008-06-16 14:39:32 When the wedding season starts there is just this huge rush of days lost. I still have to do the editing and my own secretary duties, but now I lose 2 days per week (sometimes 3) to do all my administrative work, like phone calls or emails. It takes me a little bit to readjust and get caught up so bare with me. If you called or emailed recently and got no response, please try again. I'm not purpos
25 Years Later 2008-06-18 08:54:47 August 19, 1983 - My very first concert. I was 14 years old and my sister's boyfriend, Tony, agreed to take me so he could score some browny points with my parents. He got us 2nd row seat for Iron Maiden at The Spectrum. It was the World Piece Tour, so named because of their recently released album, Piece of Mind. I remember it like it was yesterday. We moved up to the front so that we were actual Read more:Years
Vendor Spotlight - Barton Paul 2008-06-30 14:42:35 Working with a photographer we have never worked with before can sometimes be difficult. We never know where they like to stand to get their best shots. Sometimes they want to stand where it might hurt our shot or they want to stand exactly where I am standing already. 99 percent of the times things work out just fine and we both get our shots, nobody gets hurt and everybody walks away happy.Last Read more:Vendor

E•Vid (engagement video) 2008-06-27 23:23:53 Before the wedding it's a tradition to get engagement pictures. Well, now were proud to announce that we offer engagement video
s. We will refer to them as E•Vid. Thse are essentially the same thing as your e-pics, but we can't have you stand in front of bushes and pose. We need action so that your personality comes through. We can do the E•Vid with or without your photographer.The final video

A Prologue 2008-07-11 12:12:30 I have never put a Prologue
in a blog post before, but I loved how this one turned out so I wanted to share. I love editing to upbeat songs. The fast action and fast cuts really makes it exciting to watch.Philadelphia Wedding Video
My New Ride 2008-07-11 09:45:06 I don't treat myself very often. I usually will buy toys for our boys before I will buy anything for me. I do buy some cool new gadgets (like my new HD projector) but those are usually to help the business. So yesterday Jeanie and I decided to retire the 8 year old Dodge Caravan and get something new. I'm not a big gearhead so we got something practical and, as with previous purchases, did it with
Vendor Meals - The good, the bad, and the ugly 2008-07-10 02:51:36 While we don't require a vendor meal in our agreement, our couples think enough about us that they take care of us and make sure that we get fed. For this we are truly appreciative. I think this year we booked the nicest couples in all of Philadelphia and New Jersey, and they know that we work a long day and we hustle to get all the great shots. It's nice to know they respect our efforts and take Read more:Vendor

Wedding Planners 2008-07-09 11:59:35 Most brides have some kind of budget, whether it be large or small. A very important part of planning your dream wedding is to know how to prioritize and make the most of your budget. You don't want to order custom bar napkins and later find out you have no money left for the florist (or even worse, the videographer).This is why one of the first wedding vendors you should book should be a wedding

Good will is good business 2008-07-03 08:22:16 There is a big problem in the wedding industry - vendor networking. That's right, believe it or not, vendors recommending other vendors is a big problem. And the problem is that some vendors will agree to recommend each other and put links to each other's websites, with very little thought to whether they actually do good work. This applies to catering halls as well. Many have a "preferred vendor
B.I.G. Video Show at the Imperia in Somerset, NJ 2008-07-29 11:44:59 We are impressed with your video and how fast you had it on the site.You did a beautiful job, we love it! Michael Martorana Father of the groomI'm not sure who gets more excited about the B.I.G. Video Show, us or the client? And when getting such a nice email from the father of the groom I'm leaning towards saying"us". Getting nice emails that express gratitude for our skills is why we do what we Read more:Somerset
Picture Perfect - Amateur Paparazzi 2008-07-29 11:44:19 "Let us now offer each other a sign of peace"Those are the words we wait for during the preparation of the eucharist at a catholic ceremony. After the bride and groom have been listening to the priest for 10 minutes they finally get to move and give each of their mom's a rose. As usual, I am ready for it. I am on my center camera and have a great shot of the couple as they walk off the altar. Th Read more:Picture

VOTE FOR ME - blah blah blah 2008-07-23 07:42:45 So it's that time again where you get an email blast from all your vendors to vote for them in the FoxPhilly "Best of" contest. But you won't be getting an email from me. Why? I'll let you all in on a little secret. It's a contest with no rules.That's right. Anybody can vote. And you can make up different email addresses and vote multiple times. And then you can call all your friends and have them Read more:blah blah
Personal Life 2008-08-15 12:36:56 Recently my mother-in-law passed away and I haven't been able to do as much editing as usual or keep up with phone calls or emails. And unfortunately this is not the kind of business where you can call out and somebody does your work for you. I have also had a couple extremely busy weekends and obviously they needed my attention.I am now getting back to a pretty steady steam of videos being edited Read more:Personal
B.I.G. Video Show at The Downtown Club 2008-08-11 09:54:15 Friday rush hour in Philadelphia is never fun. But getting to the reception hall and creating a video is loads of fun. This is the B.I.G. Video Show that we created for Amanda and Chris. Maryann, the mother of the bride, hired us a few months ago, but with a only a few weeks before the wedding she saw our B.I.G. Video Show and added it to the package. Amanda and Chris live in Orlando so they can n Read more:Downtown
Losing BIG TIME!!! 2008-08-07 23:17:54 I can't believe I am getting crushed so bad in the FoxPhilly Best in Philadelphia Contest. What did I do wrong? Maybe I should have campaigned a little hard at the beginning. I thought for sure I'd be a lock. I have been getting some nice emails lately, especially about our B.I.G. Video. I just don't understand it. I feel like calling Hillary for some counseling.Maybe I should send an email to som
