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.

Videography
HD Invision [Robert Busch]

Robert 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.

I 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!
