Giveaway Contest: Free Wedding Film

If you haven’t figured it out already, I love my job! I have the best job in the world, mostly because I have the best clients in the world! It’s because of you that I’m able to put my talents to use and create something (from out of practically nothing) that you will treasure for the rest of your life and for generations to come!

With that said, out of an attitude of humility and gratitude, I want to be able to give something back. And what better way than to use my talents to serve a well-deserving couple… for FREE! If not for the success and support that you, as my clients, have given me, I would not be able to give in this manner.

So I want to hear some good, genuine, heart-felt stories!

If you are getting married before the end of 2009 or know of a couple who is, pass it forward and give them a heads up for a gift that they’ll never forget!

I can’t wait to hear your story!

Back from Down Under

After 35 hours of traveling from Christchurch, New Zealand back to good old Kansas City, Mary and I are back safely after an awesome time!

New Zealand is an excellent place to vacation during this time of year, especially after coming back to 90 degree humid weather!

More pictures coming soon!

After almost three weeks of almost no contact with the outside world, there is a lot of catching up to do! A lot has happened while we’ve been gone and a lot more is still happening.


First, a special congratulations are in order for Heather Cole, who was featured in a New York Times article with images from her Trash the Dress session which we had collaborated on. (Video from the TTD session with Heather) Coincidentally, the NY Times article was published on our one year anniversary date! How cool is that? :)


In other media news, TTD has been featured on Entertainment Tonight’s “The Insider” as well as on ABC’s “Good Morning America.”

Jason Domingues, another fantastic KC photographer, has his Trash the Dress photos on Good Morning America’s slideshow. (For more of Jason’s TTD pics, click here)

Trashing the Dress is gaining popularity in the Kansas City area as another photographer, Kelley Walker-Chance, most well-known for her Coquettes, has recently done her first TTD session as well, which, as usual, ended up looking amazing!

If you are looking to Trash the Dress in Kansas City, there are some amazing photographers here that will create memories that you will cherish forever. If you really want bridal elegance and beauty, give me a call and we can create a music video with your images and video for a breathtaking and unforgettable experience!

Off to New Zealand We Go!

We will be out of the office out of the country until June 18th.

Mary and I will be in New Zealand on our honeymoon / celebrating our one year anniversary.

I will not have phone access nor will I be able to check my voicemail so the best way to get in contact with me will be through email. I will check my email periodically when I can but we will mostly be enjoying the beautiful scenery and fresh air of New Zealand.

See you on the other side…

Trash the Dress

Kairos Moment Wedding Films was recently featured at the site Trash the Dress and is currently the only videographer highlighted on the site. This is great news for us to be recognized among some of the world’s best photographers!

If you want to preserve your dress while showing your wholehearted commitment to your husband, check out Trash the Dress for some inspiration!

Quoted from their site:

“Go ahead, you know you want to. Trash it. Get it dirty. Get it wet. Roll around in the mud. Drench it in the ocean. Totally trash it.Why? … Why not? You’ve made a commitment to your husband. He’s your one and only true love, right? Then you’ll never need the dress again. And no, your daughter won’t wear it in 20-30 years. So you have two choices:

1) Suffocate it in plastic and throw it in a closet
2) Show your husband how committed you are by trashing the dress, and get some great fun pictures while you do it!”

Trash the Dress is featuring our Bridal Elegance Glamour Video as an appealing alternative way of preserving your dress.

Check us out at Trash the Dress and look around for some awe-inspiring photos!

We are featured in the Bride’s Guide!


A little while ago, Kairos Moment Wedding Films was approached by Tim Schulte, an editor of Content That Works, a newspaper syndicate based in Chicago. He was putting together an article for their Bride’s Guide publication on the use of iPods at weddings and was interested in our service offering.

With the latest iPods capable of playing video, we can port your wedding film to your video iPod or we can order one for both you and your spouse with custom engravings so that you can tote your wedding film anywhere and show all your friends without having to invite them all over to your place! How convenient, eh?

Anyways, Tim ended up giving us a call for an interview to learn more about our services and also used one of our photos in his article to show off our iPod! How cool is that?

According to their website, Content That Works has licensing agreements with more than 200 newspapers in the United States and Canada. Combined, these newspapers reach more than 12 million households so that should get us some exposure ;)

Rangefinder Magazine Foresees Shift to Videography Over Photography

John Rettie, a columnist at Rangefinder magazine, a very well-known magazine among photographers, wrote in the October 2006 issue, about the ever-increasing popularity of videography among young couples getting married.

Here is an excerpt from his column:

…I foresee a shift towards videography and away from still photography in coming years….

Essentially it boils down to customer expectations—what is it they want? Video is growing in popularity. It’s all over the internet, and even newspapers are now shooting video for use on their websites….

Gone are the days of boring, lightly edited documentary-style videos. Instead the leading wedding videographers are producing movie-style stories with dramatic editing and emotional images….

Videography is still more complicated than still photography, partly because sound has to be added to the dimension, and it requires a totally different mindset while shooting. However, as we move forward, young people are more interested in video than stills….

Bottom line—I predict that within 10 years, if not sooner, a majority of brides will hire only a videographer to cover their wedding, or at the very least prioritize spending money on a videographer first, with the still photographer being a secondary consideration.

Like Rettie, most brides don’t realize the movie-style stories that Kairos Moment Wedding Films produces. Your wedding video doesn’t have to be boring or dull. If you want to remember the feeling of your wedding day, if you want to be taken back to the time when you first kissed as husband and wife, if you want to remember the precious and solemn vows you declared to one another as you came before God, think Kairos Moment Wedding Films.
