Kansas City A-List Winner: Best Videographer

Read the reviews here!

We are so thrilled that couples continually entrust us to artistically capture one of the most important days in their lives. We thank you for believing in us and for allowing us to give you our best! We moved to Kansas City just 3 years ago and started our videography business shortly thereafter. Ever since then, we have been embraced by the top wedding vendors in Kansas City from photographers, coordinators, DJs, even fellow videographers… and most importantly, the absolute best couples in Kansas City! After all, how can we be the best videographers without the best couples?

So thank you. Thank you for your support and encouragement to keep doing what we do. And thank you for your friendship and partnering with us as we endeavor to excel in all that we do!

We are so pumped up and even more committed to continue putting forth our best efforts and living up to our title of providing outstanding videography in Kansas City!



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!

What If…?

Broken MemoriesWhat if your videographer doesn’t deliver as promised? What if the footage doesn’t turn out? What if everything is so dark and shaky that you feel sick watching your wedding video? What if it’s so boring that you don’t think you’ll ever watch your wedding video again… EVER?

What if you’re so upset about it that they offer you a FULL REFUND of all monies paid?

My guess is that it’s not the money you’re upset about.



An Atypical Wedding Videographer: Ron Dawson

On a positive note, Ron Dawson of Cinematic Studios was featured in the NorthBay biz magazine, a regional magazine that covers business news in the Marin, Sonoma, and Napa county areas in Northern California.

Ron is a great friend and source of inspiration for me. He has taken great strides in debunking the notion of the typical wedding video: “shot like a home movie and lasting about two hours, detailing every (let’s face it) boring detail of the day and only appreciated by the bride and groom (but that every friend and family member is obligated to sit through while trying not to yawn).”

“One reason people don’t get wedding videos is because all the ones they’ve seen are bad—they’re either cheesy, long and boring or they look bad.”



Don’t Let This Happen To You!

ThePittsburghChannel.com: Company Stiffs Local Bride of Wedding Video

An excerpt:

“The perfect wedding takes months, sometimes even years, of careful planning, and everything was going according to plan for one local bride. But shortly after the wedding, things went sour.

“According to the bride, the company she hired to capture her wedding day in October still has not sent her the video.

“This particular company guarantees the best combination of quality and price…”

Read the rest of this news transcript…

The company mentioned in the article advertises nationwide… you may have heard of them…

All I have to say is:

  1. You get what you pay for.
  2. Make sure to check references of all your vendors (and get to know them Wink)

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!”

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.



Our Love Story

This is our love story, shown to our guests during our wedding reception.

  • How We Met
  • What We Love About Each Other
  • The Proposal
  • God of Love and Joy
  • Finding Purpose in Life Through Christ

Creative filming and editing are used to help the story along rather than as a distraction. Some things to look for: 3D photo montage, tasteful special effects, beatboxing :)

Locations: Kauffman Memorial Garden, Loose Park, Country Club Plaza, J.C. Nichols Fountain, Swope Park (these are just some of the beautiful places that make for beautiful photos and scenery in Kansas City)
