I love to get these types of e-mails!

“Hi Jeff,

Wow, whatta rush over the holidays!!! Hope your Christmas weekend was great 😉 I’ve been trying to get an email off to you for several days now, but always seem to get pulled another direction. Since I’ve last had a chance to write you, Ivan and I have had the wonderful fortune of watching the video about 8 times…all with different groups!

Jeff, I’ve got to tell you that the wedding video is absolutely breath-taking. It is a true masterpiece and you should be very proud. You have a gift for immortalizing the most precious elements of a day (I’m sure you’ve been told that once or twice before) and I think the investment in this video was the best money we ever have or ever will spend. Your pristine editing, gorgeous song choice and whole package is just incredible. I can’t say enough about how deeply this piece has touched both of us.

The first time Ivan and I sat down to watch it, we cried. The cinematic recap and it’s music welled us both up with emotion and seeing tears fall onscreen made tears fall in our living room. Each time we watch it, we’re magically transported back to that heavenly day. The way you captured the happiness, humor, joy, nerves, love…it’s really unbelievable…absolutely beautiful.

From our tearful first look, to Ivan’s expression of relief after getting the two baby girls to smile during a picture, to him biting his lip overwhelmed with emotion right as my dad handed me over during the ceremony, to the little glances between us all night that were so jam-packed with love and longing…you caught it all through that amazing lens, with your amazing eye.

You bring us right back there to those priceless moments and we can’t thank you enough. We are so grateful to have this living, breathing memento of the happiest day of our lives. We will cherish it forever. Thank you, thank you, and thank you again.

Very sincerely,
Ivan and Gillian”

Gillian & Ivan’s Wedding Day Film was one of my favorites of the year. See their Cinematic Recap below.
