Jason & Janelle first contacted us a year and a half ago, just days after they got engaged.  We were so thrilled they wanted to work with us because they were a laid back, creative, awesome couple.  We couldn’t wait to start filming their story.  It started with them coming to Bakersfield to film their Save the Date, which you might remember watching.  It was a blast to collaborate on such a fun film and great to hear that their guests enjoyed their inventive way to announce their wedding.  Then we went on a road trip up to Sequoia Valley to film their Love Story.  We went ice skating with them (which Megan enjoyed), we went snowboarding with them (which Ian enjoyed), and we played with their fantastic dog Shortee in the snow (which we all enjoyed).  They showed this film at their reception, sharing their story with everyone.  At this point we had spent several days with Jason & Janelle, and when their wedding day rolled around in Clarksburg, it was like watching our friends get married.  Our friends who we have traveled all over California with.  We were overjoyed to see these two people get hitched at the ridiculously cool venue at the Old Sugar Mill.  And as a huge bonus we got to work with photographer and friend Scott Andrew for the third time.  So happy for you Jason & Janelle!  When we are in northern California next we will hit up the slopes (not Megan), do some ice skating (not Ian), and throw back some courage juice (all of us)!

Jason and Janelle contacted us just days after Jason got down on one knee in Squaw Valley.  After an awesome Skype meeting, Jason and Janelle proposed to us.  No seriously.  Their email read, “Will you and Ian be our videographers at our July 28th, 2012 wedding?”  And of course we said YES!  The excitement of working with Jason and Janelle has not died down either.  They have kept us going with creative ideas for the Save the Date and Love Story (which is coming later this year…and includes snowboarding).

Jason and Janelle had the idea of doing a slideshow at their wedding, but they wanted to elevate the idea.  So we figured out a way to capture the sentiment of a slideshow while being more original.  Here’s the result!  A fun and creative way to share with their wedding guests how they came together and announce their wedding date!  Save the Date everyone!
