Life Stage Baby Story – The Riddles

We are so thrilled to share this cute, emotional, hilarious and very unique video with you from our creative line of videos called “Baby Stories“. It’s part of our “Legacy Video” product line, and we couldn’t be more excited to share this moment in the Riddle’s lives with you. You see, we love our job, not only because we get to be around happy people on a wedding day, but for all their other “Stages” of life as well. We filmed Patti & Christian’s wedding back in 2008, and formed a special relationship with them that went way past the wedding day festivities. They called us as soon as they found out they were pregnant so we could not only share in their joy, but they wanted to make sure we captured the same emotions from their wedding day that they would surely have during the arrival of their baby. We filmed a baby shower for them, came to the hospital the day after the birth of their baby boy, and came a month later to film family members loving on Finnegan Riddle to document just how much he had grown! We wanted to share a quick clip of their Baby Story Film in the hospital after their son was born. Such priceless memories captured. I also have to say I’ve never laughed so hard while holding a camera when Patti explains the naming process of “Baby Barnacle”! They chose not to know if it was a boy or girl til the birth, and you’ll hear Christian’s experience seeing his boy for the first time. So cool! It’s moments like these where we all feel so privileged to do what we do here at Life Stage Films.

  1. And, again, The Life Stage Team has done it! I LOVE IT! I was going to wait until Christian came home, but I just couldn’t!! This will certainly be something that we cherish along with the wedding video you did and I know that Finnegan will be interested in seeing it when he gets older. You captured it all and I can’t wait to see the rest. It is so precious that I don’t even mind that I didn’t have time to touch my hair or that I am retaining about 50 gallons of water! You did a beautiful job in capturing another very special moment in our lives. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! We love you!

  2. What a great snapshot of a precious time! I know they are thrilled and you captured it just perfectly! Congrats Riddle Family!

  3. This little movie will be worth its weight in gold for years to come. ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!!! I would seriously pay thousands of dollars to have something like this for each of my children. Thanks for sharing this special moment with us Patti and Christian!!

  4. I cry every time I watch this Beautiful Story! You guys are so Amazing, and since my Husband and I didn’t get to do a Wedding story-we have decided that we want you to do our Baby story, (When that time comes of course.)I was blessed to be able to see Patti’s belly grow from a barnacle to a baby, and each change was so exciting for her and Christian. Patti and Christian were such a riot through out the pregnancy. From her obsession with tootsie rolls and banana chips, to fruit roll- ups and Sloppy Joes! And Christian wanting to name him Chuck Norris! We stayed in stitches! Rusty and I are So excited for you both, and can’t wait to meet Master Finnegan! He is so beautiful and we couldn’t be happier for you and your family! Once again, What artist you are Melissa and Matt! You have a beautiful God given gift, to be able to catch such Priceless and Precious Moments that change peoples life! Your name is Quite fitting! I will be in touch, and hopefully soon!

  5. Oh my! The tears are in my eyes as I write how beautiful Finnegan looks and how special this video is to the family. What a wonderful job and I know you both are so proud. Kirk and I cannot wait to meet our new cuz!

  6. What a perfectly beautiful Baby Story you filmed, Matt and Melissa . . . AND and what a precious baby boy you shared with us all, Patti and Christian! Many thanks for jobs well-done on both accounts! (I happen to think the grandparents all look might good, too! And to think, we were just getting these two married only a “blink” ago! ;>)

    Love to all and prayers for a wonderful and healthy life, Finnegan! You are one fortunate little boy to be born into such a loving family!

  7. Patti & Christian,
