Just for Fun!

Ever wonder what it would be like to take a cruise in 15 to 20 ft seas?? Well, here is a sneak peek. This is some video I captured on Sunday in the middle of the Atlantic. I still feel like I am on the ship!

We had such a great time filming Michelle and Ken's gorgeous city wedding. The ceremony was at St. Cecilia's Church in Boston's Back Bay and the couple chose to have their reception at our new favorite venue; the chic Harvard Club of Boston. All of the details were absolutely stunning as you will see below!

The couple was so happy and they were surrounded by the love and joy of their beautiful families and HILARIOUS bridal party. There were so many amazing and touching moments throughout the day from a touching letter from Ken that almost brought Michelle to tears, to Michelle surprising Ken at the ceremony with an awesome bagpipe player (Ken's favorite! ) it was a wonderful event.

Ken & Michelle thank you, I am truly grateful that you decided to include us in your wedding celebration!

Sandra + John

The sun slowly faded across the sky to reveal the most breathtaking views of Boston in the distance. John and Sandra snuck away from their rockin' reception at the Granite Links Golf Club to capture this magic moment on film. We had such a great time filming, the event was just gorgeous and everything went off without a hitch. Thank you so much for the honor of capturing this special day!

Below is a peek at a few moments just after the ceremony.

And the winner is....

Wow we received so many entries, stories from brides, grooms, parents and friends with wedding locations from all over including Maine, New Hampshire and Rhode Island! Unfortunately, several of the dates we were already booked.

I was so touched by ALL the entries, I wish I could shoot all of them! My hope is to make this an annual contest.

One of the things we really loved about the winner, was that she told us that if there was a couple we thought was more deserving we should choose them over her. That selflessness made us love her story even more!

We are SO excited. We can't wait to work with Ella and Kyle in November!

Thank you to everyone who entered and for sharing your stories.

*Contest*

Thanks to our amazing clients, we have been able to document and be a part of so many incredible events over the last few years. I am so grateful that I am now at a point where we can give back.

We will be shooting a wedding this year for free! If you know someone who is getting married in 2007 who you think is deserving please email me at melissa@vignettefilms.com for a pdf of all the details.

We will use this opportunity to try out some new and exciting things!

My goal is simple to produce elegant, fun and fresh images for a deserving couple. That's it.

I hope to find one really special couple to do this for.

Short Circuit

I have just been notified by mac that our old blog has been shut down temporarily due to too much traffic, which in some ways is actually a good thing! I LOVE that we are getting a lot of traffic and will come up with an alternative to get Heather & Matt's clip back on the new blog shortly. The old blog will be back up on August 1st.

Pink Clouds!



I just had to post this, Jeremy took this absolutely incredible photograph on Saturday night. I just love the way you can see the reflection in the water and the I especially love the pink clouds!

It's Only You

"Who else would dance with me in the middle of the grocery store aisle or sing to me because I can't sleep? It's only you. "

On April 14th, we had the distinct pleasure of filming Heather and Matt's wedding and we had an amazing time.

Matt's smile could light up a stadium when he first saw Heather in her wedding dress. She looked absolutely gorgeous. They were so affectionate and playful it was immediately obvious that they are the best of friends and will have an awesome life together. Their families and friends were so warm and engaging and the entire event was perfect. The historic setting of Salem, and the Peabody Essex Museum was a cinematic dream. Here is a clip from the "getting ready" part of the day.

Congratulations Heather and Matt!



Special thanks to Melissa, René & Carl of Tirado Photography who are always such a delight to work with and are amazingly talented photographers!
