A capricious fall day. A golden sun cunningly peaks through a rain cloud. Though it wasn’t thunder that rolled…

It can happen to anyone. The sun can be shining. You have the perfect plan. Your photo and video team are ready to go. And then, lightning strikes ⚡️ 🌧️… metaphorically speaking.
Think back to the days you were planning for this day. Did you ask the right questions? Did you vet the team you hired? How are your photos and videos going to turn out? Will your dress get ruined? Will the groom see the bride before he’s supposed to? What are you supposed to do?
This is why the vendors you hire matter so much. This couple was privileged to have a strong team running their day. Let’s break it down:
1) This is quite possibly the first time each vendor could be working together. Each with their own goals, priorities and experience to provide their mutual client. A good vendor team will ADAPT to any situation, remain calm and get the job done. Ask your vendors how they perform under pressure. You don’t want to mess this up!
2) The bride and groom are on a strict timeline. They haven’t seen each other yet! Imagine the disappointment on the day if something happened where they spoiled the surprise of her walking down the aisle because of a moment like this. The stakes are as high as they get!
3) In this scenario, there’s risk of equipment being damaged as well as reputations and a client experience. What you see happening here is a coordinator/planner, a photographer and a videographer all coming together to help each other. Not only does everyone have to take care to avoid getting in each others shots, you have to consider how the rain affects them as well.
The story ends with a happy wedding. @stattevents responds and directs the couple brilliantly. And has the notion to help the photo and video team keep their equipment dry. While staying out of the way. @tpi_photography executes, maintains the standard of their portfolio and collaborates with the videographer perfectly. End of the day, the couple stays stress free (as stress free as you can on your wedding day lol) and their memories are preserved masterfully.
Be mindful of who is by your side~

Bringing Back the Magic of Marriage
In February 2005, Hitch hit the big screen. In it, Will Smith’s character, Alex Hitchens, delivers a line that’s always stayed with me:
"Never lie, steal, cheat, or drink. But if you must lie, lie in the arms of the one you love. If you must steal, steal away from bad company. If you must cheat, cheat death. And if you must drink, drink in the moments that take your breath away."
It’s a reminder of a time when marriage felt stronger—when vows held weight. Today, divorce rates are high, and the promises once spoken can fade as the years go on. I believe marriage is worth more. More love. More respect. More commitment. My hope is to preserve not just the moments—but the meaning behind them.
What do you think—can we bring the magic back?

I’ve held onto this one for a while. This Valentine’s Day, I’m honored to share the story of two of the kindest souls I know. Mali and Q return on their anniversary—a full-circle moment that makes this film even more profound. Their wedding day was a story that unfolded effortlessly, rich with emotion and depth. La Luna set the stage, its elegant, industrial charm creating an atmosphere where love felt inevitable. The result—cinematic, raw, and deeply moving.

These two fell in love the way we all imagine. Just doing what we do each and every day.
You can feel the magic of the day right from start to finish. “Backyard” wedding have grown in popularity. While seemingly simple, a wedding video can elevate the day- so you have the memories for years to come~
Thank you Brittany and Christian~

Every wedding has a story that unfolds throughout the day. This story, is about love, family, passion and heritage. The groom and his closest entourage of groomsmen bring it, in an all out display of love for cars and tribute to the grooms late father.
Volatility, was in the air as the skies closed in, hailed and opened up almost intentionally as each part of the day unfolded. For the believers, some would say the grooms father was exactly where he needed to be, exactly when he needed to be there.
Such a touching story and amazing people to be a part of it. @stattevents was nothing short of perfect making sure everything went off without a hitch. @tpi_photography was critical in adapting to the challenges of the weather, and @chevrolet really could be heard as the bridal party roared their engines.

When I hear that guests from across the country come together to join the bride and groom in celebration, I know the energy and atmosphere is going to go through the roof!
So much fun and excitement in this wedding. Thank you to both the Gentile and Augliano, families for having me.

When you combine an incredible couple and their family with a great vendor team, magic happens.
Nicole and Angelo’s wedding was filled with so much heart. The amount of detail put into making it such a great day could be felt all the way down the line from the vendors to the couple and their families. One of the things I notice great weddings have in common is the parents. On both sides of the family, they were so accommodating, kind and an absolute pleasure to be around.
If you asked me to relive this wedding 10 times over I’d do it 11. Congratulations to the Battoglias and thank you for allowing me to capture the day.
