I was looking at some of our Paris wedding videos that we shot for our international clients this past season. Jan and Jeremy contacted us from San Diego, California, land of eternal sunshine; a long way away from now cold Paris. They engaged in Paris, flew back numerous times being both in love with each other and the beauty of the city. We first met on their last trip while they were planning their destination wedding in Paris. We had a great time over a cup of coffee and a few month later we not only photographed their wedding but also produced their wedding video.
WeddingLight Events planned their wedding day in Paris. They married on a beautiful boat crusing on the river seine with a little group of family and friends who improvised a dance hall party along the way with an i-phone and speaker. The best man officiated the wedding ceremony with grace and emotion. Everyone cried, I must have shed a tear or two as well. We sneaked out for a few hours in an old Citroen traction, traveling the streets of Paris looking for the perfect shot, from Notre Dame to the Eiffel tower until we reached the Isle Saint Louis for the wedding reception. The wedding video we produced certainly brings back lots of happy memories of their wedding day.
Our professional mission as filmmakers as well as photographer is to redefine what makes a great wedding documentary. We see every wedding as a work of art, whether we document the day with photography or moving images, and our clients as close friends who have given us the privilege of telling the story of the best day of their lives with our art and passion.
WeddingLight aims at creating a flawlessly executed wedding video that not only, yourself but friends and family will enjoy for decades.
I have always been driven to document the things that give life meaning. Becoming a visual artist made me someone who sees the world with wonder. Every wedding celebrations we document in France whether intimate for a few hours or larger productions over the whole week end are unique and all so very moving.
It is such a privilege and of course a big responsibility to have the task to record our clients very special day in France.
We do love stories as much as we love hearing them. More often than not, we find ourselves chasing down the emotions, the tears, small details and the love shared by our couples, their friends and family on such a special day, with a camera and our hearts, to put those unique wedding stories on film.
I’ve always been captivated by the classic black and white hollywood movies, the shiny things that you can find in everyday’s life; gorgeous lights, larger then life vistas, compelling moods, shiny colors, amazing stories, the most intricate human souls, vintage cameras and sports cars! . There’s a romantic feeling to daily life which one might miss, unless you open your eyes and go looking for it. Being a videographer, a wedding photographer in Paris and being able to document your very special wedding day with stills or moving images is a wonderful way to connect with people and share the most amazing stories of their life.
I have to say that every wedding we are being part of is the most touching wedding we had ever taken. It is a great privilege to document one couple wedding day and we are so grateful to our past clients and now friends who have given us the opportunity of being part of their elopement, intimate celebration and large wedding day in France.
I hope that you will enjoy the wedding celebration of Jan and Jeremy in Paris as much as we had fun being part of it with our curious eyes.
