Mary Blake & Casey’s Experience

Mary Blake & Casey

“LifeStage Videography is THE best around! The LifeStage team met with me and answered my MANY questions before our wedding. The DVD quality was superb and was extremely professional and “movie like”. The moment we watched our wedding video for the first time was magical! It was so important for us to capture every word in the ceremony because we knew we would miss a lot and would begin to forget things as time went on. The best part was that the LifeStage team was so courteous, client-focused and easy to work with. It’s hard to find this kind of service in the wedding business any more. It is evident that their work is truly where their heart is. Take it from us‚Ķ budget for the extra time and cost to get your entire event recorded. We did not and truly regret it. Thanks so much LifeStage Videography!”

Raiza & Luis

We had no idea what we were getting into with this wedding! It was a rather chilly beach day on Topsail Island, NC in November, but that didn’t stop Raiza and Luis from having an unforgettable wedding complete with a 5 story beach house filled with all their friends and family for a week! Raiza is Cuban and Luis’ family is from Mexico, and Melissa and I just fell in love with this celebration. Melissa and I LOVE hispanic culture. We lived in Mexico for a while a few years back, and we even did a Salsa/Tango combination for our first dance at our own wedding. So when these two families started to dance, we could barely keep the cameras still. I admit, we cheated and danced a little on the job!

We just wanted to share with you their highlights video as well as their dancing segment on their DVD. We know you will enjoy both. Raiza chose, “Your Song”, from the Motion Picture “Moulin Rouge”. I actually love editing to this song, but its been about 1 1/2 years since we have used it last. Thanks Raiza and Luis for welcoming us into your wedding celebration! We had a blast filming!
The photography at the wedding was by Matt McGraw. Beautiful job on his part as always. Music at the ceremony was by Maura Kropke. Check her out also if you are looking for an elegant violinist.

Our Website Make-Over

We wanted to shine the spotlight on the people that make our website look good! Over the past year, we have tried numerous ways to “decorate” our website as best as we could. Problem is we are videographers, not photographers! So, instead of using our old still images from our videos we decided that photos created by the photographers we work with would best suit our website. High quality video deserves a high quality website. Now, obviously we have worked with A LOT of photographers all over the region and in Wilmington. Most of them truly great and passionate about their work. Being in the industry, we even have photographer friends that we know, we just haven’t shot a wedding together. That said, these photographers listed below have the work displayed on our site because,

1. They are GOOD…

2. We know that we work well with all of them. Its important that your videographer and photographer work well together because that means not only a stress free wedding day, but both the pictures and video will be even more incredible. We can say that about these photographers. If you are excited about having us film your wedding, look into these folks if you haven’t already reserved a photographer. And if you have, no worries! Before your wedding, we make it a point to discuss your wedding with your photographer so we can coordinate smoothly…

We couldn’t leave out Hal Queen. Based in Charlotte, Hal referred us to many many brides to help us get the word out about our unique style. We couldn’t have expanded so quickly without his help. We work very well with him, and he comes highly recommended, because he shot our wedding!
All of these artists have different styles, so have fun looking at their work and pick the one that’s right for you!

Happy Tuesday,

Matt
