Zesty Vendors, Part I – Visual Record
I am interrupting the pro photo parade to bring you some info on some of my super fantastic vendors.

www.hdinvision.comRobert was very responsive, professional, and on top
of follow-up from our intial contact. He arrived on
time, decided to throw in a second shooter for the ceremony
close to our wedding date when I sent him our ceremony
setup in order to best capture everything, and was
everywhere and very unobtrusive at the same time on
our wedding day.Editing-wise, we like more of an edgy and contemporary
style. However, we didn’t want our video to get dated
too quickly, either. Robert’s editing style is a good
balance between classic and modern without any cheese. From his other samples, it seems he can adjust more
toward one end of the spectrum or the other as well,
depending on your taste. He does give you a very detailed
questionnaire regarding your style preferences at the
beginning, but he was able to extract that which fit
us and our event best with very little direction from
[lazy] me [who didn't fill it all out]. His turnaround
time was very reasonable as videography goes, his packages a great value, and he
was such a pleasure to work with throughout the process.And now, our highlights reel to show you some of his work.
Photography

mnphotography.blogspot.comI was fortunate to have found michael when he was just
breaking into wedding photography, especially since
we had a beer budget and have champagne tastes as far
as photography is concerned. Both my husband and I were
instantly taken by his warm, laid-back personality. Despite both being rather camera-shy, we knew that we
would be comfortable in front of him on our wedding
day. Even with only a few weddings under his belt at
the time, his portfolio showed obvious talent, understanding
of the types of shots brides and grooms want, and an
impressive range.We loved his enthusiasm and creativity in trying a
new venue for our engagement photos. he was present
for every moment of our 15+ hour wedding day, and we
love both the candid moments and casual portraits he
caught of us, our guests, and the event. As evidenced
throughout my entries documenting our day and Michael’s work, his work speaks for itself. he was also prompt
to respond, had our online proofs up in record time,
and was another vendor that our other vendors truly
enjoyed working alongside.

I really loved your wedding video reel, it was really professional! You say you had a low budjet but I bet it was huge, because the work you had done looks so great! Love your photos and video. You have to do a entry on the honeymoon too!
