October 15th - Featured in Event DV


The big event I was talking about it earlier posts was an article Event DV is publishing about a shoot I planned with a few other videographers in Las Vegas during the WEVA Expo. I invited the "Godfather of Dress Trashing" John Michael Cooper to shoot photos with us.
The reason I, and my fellow videographers, decided to do this shoot was to show people in the industry the importance of "thinking outside the box." We wanted to show people that getting out there and trying new things, working with fellow vendors, is the best way to improve you abilities.
Anyways, here is the web version of the article. The print version will be out in a few weeks and this article will be the cover article!!

Special thanks too:

-John Michael Cooper - For finding the location and shooting some awesome pics
-Chris P Jones - Being my partner in crime and the story teller
-Kristen Souders - For the support and film!
-Robert Neal - Backing me up with some HD awesomeness
-Steven Nathans - For writing the article and driving the car!

October 11th - Some News

So I spoke at LIVA (Long Island Videographer's Association) last night at the Marriott Hotel in Uniondale, NY. I had a great time seeing all my NY buddies and I think my seminar went over pretty well. Hopefully some of LIVA's members feel "inspired" enough to go out and try their own Trash the Dress shoot using some really cool stabilizers! haha.

Something very cool is going to happen in a few weeks that I've been waiting for, for quite some time. I've been told that I'm going to be on the front cover of Event DV! I should say that my picture isn't going to be on the cover, but the article is about something I did. Anyways, I'm really excited because Event DV is the largest magazine for the Wedding Video industry!

In another, unrelated article I will be in Event DV again in December! Twice in a row! It's really something else!

Keep wathching... I'll post the article as soon as I get it!

Oct. 5th - Seminar at LIVA

As you might be able to notice... September was a very busy month! I promise I'll post more this month!

Anyways, Pete Lombardo from LIVA (Long Island Videographer's Association) asked me a few weeks back if I could come up to NY and do my Beyond the Tripod seminar. He also told me he was very interested in the Trash the Dress shoots I have been doing and asked me to speak on that as well! So if you;re in the NYC area and would like to hear all about stabilizing equipment AND Trash the Dress... get to the next LIVA meeting on October 9th!
