I planned my NYC ceremony from Canada (which was difficult!), and didn't have the chance to meet Chris until the morning of my wedding. I relied on the reviews I read online and his past work samples which completely blew me away. Once I cont...acted him, I knew he was the one - he answered all of my questions and was such a pleasure to deal with... he really made me feel confident in my decision and I knew I had nothing to worry about.
On the wedding day, things were so hectic that I didn't really have a chance to go over anything with Chris, but he knew exactly what we'd want and was simply amazing in making sure he had all the shots we'd want to look back on - he went to work getting great footage of my makeup artist and I, the groom getting ready, the dress, and just seemed to catch everything!
We had an outdoor ceremony, which can certainly be a challenge with the wind, the loud trains, hoardes of people everywhere etc - but he did whatever he had to in order to get the best shots (even climbing through a huge bush and getting covered in pollen!). His 2 camera setup was perfect to allow 2 totally seperate angles in our final video, and his lapel mics were fantastic - our voices are so clear in the video, and the background noise is really non-existant.
Our video is simply amazing and I honestly believe that nobody else could have done a better job - he was such a fun guy and is so talented that there just isn't anyone better. Our video blew us away, and everyone who has watched it has either been brought to tears, or can not stop raving about how amazing it is. Chris has such an amazing talent to be able to create such a story with the footage at the end - we love how he mixed in the clips of our vows with getting ready and the pics after the ceremony, and how he was able to use both songs we chose when we couldn't just pick one.
I really can't say enough about how great Chris was - we were so lucky to have found him and can not say enough good things about him. Watch his videos on his vimeo channel - they speak for themselves.
