Rosa & Jose | San Francisco – Bay Area Wedding Photography & Videography | The Lighthouse at Glen Cove

We were so honored to be the team to photograph and capture video of Rosa & Jose’s bay area wedding at The Lighthouse at Glen Cove in Vallejo.

As Bay Area wedding photographers and videographers, we are truly fortunate to be surrounded with all the natural beauty and landscape that lends itself to the most stunning photos and film. It was our first time working at this scenic venue featuring picturesque rolling hills in the background, a marina in the forefront and historic charm throughout. The perfect weather and blue skies set the tone for a perfect wedding for this beautiful couple. Rosa was a stunning bride in her lace gown with scalloped, lace veil to match while her girls were captivating in all black. The groom was perfectly dapper in a wine toned suit which complemented Rosa’s lace gown beautifully. Her make-up was bridal perfection and the florals were an impeccable white from the beautiful bridal bouquet to the ceremony arch.

The outdoor ceremony was perfect under the fluffy white clouds which made the lush green landscape pop with vibrant tones. Our portrait session was flawless with the wildflower landscape, water view and the rolling hills of the East Bay in the distance. The kids melted our hearts throughout the day with their adorable suits and dresses, big smiles and fun dancing. It was a true celebration of their love, family and friends with nods to their Mexican heritage making it a lively cultural celebration that was so fun to capture and edit. From the beginning of the day to the end of the evening, we saw thoughtful details throughout that touched on their life together, their culture and families. They used every opportunity to integrate these touches into each table setting and space for celebration so you could truly see their personalities come to life in every corner.

SARASOTA WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHER – POWEL CROSLEY ESTATE

As a Sarasota Wedding Videographer, we always get excited to shoot in our own backyard and this wedding is truly representative of what makes Florida a beautiful place to tie the knot. Genna and Adam’s Wedding at the  Powel Crosley Estate was absolutely beautiful, timeless and classic. We love an estate rich in history with coastal views framed by tall palm trees and swaying oaks because of the perfect, regal and old world storybook backdrop it creates.

Genna and Adam were super fans of our work and booked us about a year and a half in advance giving us the ability to communicate in great length regarding their vision for the wedding and their film overall.  The stage was set with bright blue skies, fast moving clouds, and beautiful decor around every corner.  Adam and his lively groomsmen had endless fun starting with a celebratory groom prep by toasting bourbon before slipping into their classic black tuxedos.  We captured them doing a Reservoir Dogs walking shot in the street and some of the groomsmen even started throwing dollars bills in the air as a joke which made it rich in swagger and amusement!

We were able to spend a good amount of time with Genna while she was getting ready with the girls just hanging out in her robe, admiring the dress and opening her romantic and touching letter from Adam.  The shot of her in the doorway admiring her dress is one of our absolute favorites as she gleefully awaits and ponders the beautiful moments in her near future.  From the heartfelt vows to the gorgeous reception, we feel so fortunate to have clients like Genna and Adam because they put their heart and soul into every detail and it shows in their wedding film and photos.  The talented husband and wife team from Villetto Photography were very down to earth and easy to work as they captured some incredible images on this perfect spring day in April.

Selby Gardens Luxury Wedding

Corina & Bob’s Selby Gardens Luxury Wedding in Sarasota, FL  was a true fairytale.  When the best neurosurgeon in Florida marries the woman of his dreams you get a once in a lifetime wedding full of beauty, luxury, and sheer opulence.  With Marie Selby Botanical Gardens as the backdrop and Nicole Kaney Productions running the show, the stage was set for a magical day and a picture perfect high end wedding that would allow all of us vendors to spread our wings and bring to life some of our best work yet.

Watch the beautiful celebration unfold starting with artistic behind the scenes shots of the florists and designers setting up the gorgeous ceremony and reception space at Selby Gardens.  Bride and Groom prep were held in the Presidential Suite of the Ritz Carlton and we got some amazing shots of Corina and the girls dancing in their robes and starting the day off right with some champagne toasts.  We found some beautiful and dramatic window lighting to capture Bob putting on his tie and jacket with the help of his best man.

The classic and elegant ceremony was dripping with white orchids and breathtaking florals.  As Corina and Bob shared their heartfelt vows, we created a cinematic scene that will take your breath away and undoubtedly have you falling in love with the natural beauty of Selby Botanical Gardens.

The tented reception space for this wedding was unbelievable and one of the most luxurious and memorable spaces we have ever filmed.  White orchid centerpieces were suspended 15-20 feet high and there were two flower walls that stopped you in your tracks.  Walking through the space felt like you entered a Walt Disney fairytale as all the arrangements left you breathless and in awe of the incredible elegance set forth by the designers.  Gold chairs, pink menus, mini bottles of Moet, chandeliers, and tons of classic votives were sprinkled around the site to set the stage for a truly epic and one of a kind luxury Selby Gardens Wedding Reception.

One of our favorite parts of this wedding film is when you get to see the look on Corina and Bob’s face as they walk into the tent for the first time.  Corina breaks out into tears of joy and overwhelming emotion as Bob smiles and comforts her knowing deep down in his heart that he was able to make her wedding dreams come true.  It was a magical moment that will forever go down in history for Baby Blue Film and the entire vendor team!

During the beautiful speeches, Corina and Bob’s closest friends swapped stories about med school and Bob’s rise to fame as the top neurosurgeon in Florida who revolutionized cranial and spinal surgeries.  Everyone danced the night away to the indie folk sounds of the Dapper Gents and Corina & Bob finished the night off by jumping in a Rolls Royce and speeding away through the night amidst a firework light show!

What made this fairytale wedding truly unique is that the Wedding Planner Nicole Kaney from NK Events was able to pull in all of the best vendors that the Sarasota Wedding Industry has to offer.  No expenses were spared and the result is a stunning masterpiece of a wedding!  All of the vendors listed below are the best of the best and we highly recommend booking each of them for your luxurious dream wedding!

Sunset Beach Resort Wedding Video

Mark & Lauren’s Sunset Beach Resort Wedding Video on Siesta Key

Watch this beautiful and dreamy Sunset Beach Resort Wedding Video shot on Siesta Key in Sarasota, FL.  This sweet and uplifting film is full of tropical vibes, orange and pink tones, cascading floral arrangements, gorgeous aerial views of the ocean, and there is a taste of luxury hidden around every corner of this fairytale beach wedding.

We grew up 5 minutes down the street from this beautiful venue right in the heart of the Siesta Key Village so being able to film at this location was a dream come true.  We hung out on this beach as teenagers so we have many fond memories of watching unforgettable sunsets on this iconic beach. When we got Mark & Lauren’s inquiry to film their wedding at the Sunset Beach Resort we were elated and jumped at the opportunity because we knew we could produce a stunning piece of cinema at that location.  

Mark & Lauren’s wedding was one of a kind.  They had a strong vision for the film and set us up with some remarkable moments to capture.  The bride and groom prep shots were pure magic because we were able to jump between the two cottages on the property and deliver some beautiful imagery.  Between the shots of Lauren in the window and Mark opening his gift we had a lot of strong content to work with. We love this film because it goes from super fun high energy to an emotional cinematic vibe in a split second with the introduction of Lauren and her fathers first look.  Great wedding films should always feel like a rollercoaster and nothing proves that more than Mark & Lauren’s.

The ceremony site right on the beach was jaw dropping and gorgeous!  With the luxurious mirrors placed in front of the aisle and the cascading floral arrangements, we were blown away by that ceremony set up and the credit goes to Days Remembered by ND and Daycor Events for styling this wedding in such a beautiful way.  Shooting with Mark & Lauren on the beach was amazing and the proof is in the footage!  When you have a relaxed couple on a private beach with world renowned sunsets you are destined to walk away with incredible content and that’s exactly why you should book this venue for your dream beach wedding.

We highly recommend booking all of the amazing vendors below and if you need to reach Chelly from the Sunset Beach Resort here is her email: sunsetbeachvacationrentals@aol.com

Kristen & Ryan / Powel Crosley Sarasota

Witness the beautiful love story of these two middle school sweethearts as they celebrate their wedding with friends and family in this fairy-tale like Powel Crosley Wedding Video. This upscale elegant venue offered the perfect backdrop featuring a unique and luxurious waterfront mansion.

Kristen and Ryan make a nice, genuine, and thoughtful couple. They opened their arms to us and truly trusted our vision for their wedding film.  We love shooting at the Powel Crosley because it’s a gorgeous piece of property located ten minutes from our house in Sarasota. This historic mansion has that old world European feel which is picture perfect for weddings! Tucked away from the main road it backs up onto the coastline and features epic views of Sarasota Bay, gorgeous oak trees with hanging moss, and beautiful banyan trees out front which are all ideal spots to capture amazing footage.

Our favorite parts from Kristen & Ryan’s wedding film was their first look, the heartfelt ceremony featuring a song by Ryan’s sister, the shots of them on the balcony and the ship room, and all the dreamy footage of them walking into the sunset.

Watch as these two dance the night away underneath chandelier’s and twinkle lights and celebrate their old school love for one another in this beautiful and sweet Powel Crosley wedding video!

Bakers Ranch Wedding Video

Stephanie & Coleton’s Bakers Ranch Wedding

Take a journey through the incredible love story of Stephanie and Coleton as they celebrate their big day with friends and family in this stunning Bakers Ranch Wedding Video.  

This sweet little venue is nestled in majestic oaks and located in northern Manatee County. Bakers Ranch is a true hidden gem with it’s pool table upstairs (perfect for groom prep) and it’s quaint barnyard vibe.  We loved filming this small rustic wedding because it had tons of backyard charm and lots of amazing decor. Stephanie & Coleton are a young free spirited couple that come from good families and they were such a pleasure to shoot with because they were down for anything and just so grateful to have us be a part of their special day.  

Good natural light was the key to filming this wedding.  Utilizing that big beautiful window during bride prep and finding that ray of sunshine peeking through the moss was what made this shoot so unique.  We love epic old Florida style weddings because they have that southern charm and touch of nature that just sets the stage for great filmmaking conditions. 

We worked with Photographer Joe Siciliano for the first time on this wedding and we have since become good friends and booked a few more weddings together for the 2018 season.  We hit it off immediately because he is a creative guru, a master at his craft (look at his gorgeous photos below), and extremely down to earth.  His willingness to share the stage with us to ensure that we both went home with amazing shots for this great couple really impressed us and made all the difference in the quality of the content that we were able to deliver.  Joe and Baby Blue Film are a photo/video creative dream team so we highly recommend you booking us together for your Tampa Bay Area Wedding!

Now go and watch as these two young lovers smile, dance, and enjoy one of the best days of their lives!

Bay Area Indian Wedding Cinematography

Karan & Anisha’s Wedding at Bently Reserve and Palo Alto Hills Golf & Country Club

Watch the most majestic, festive, and breathtaking 3-day Bay Area Indian Wedding uniting the beautiful couple, Karan & Anisha.  This epic wedding film truly embodies what modern Indian Wedding Cinematography is all about. The colors, the dancing, the outfits, the baraat, the henna, and the luxury all come together in a whirlwind of beauty and emotion that truly represent the fun loving spirit that Karan & Anisha share as a couple.  

Part of what makes this film truly unique is the styling of the outfits they wore.  They looked edgy, hip, modern, fresh, and unapologetically themselves which was a true testament to how they were able to blend traditional Indian culture with a California spin.  It’s obvious that these two are hyper creative because their style was loud, fun, and whimsical. They took chances and it paid off in spades because visually we were able to capitalize off the fluidity of Anisha’s remarkable garments and Karan’s powerful look.

The end result is an other worldly portrayal of a true king and queen that were destined to break the mold and march to the beat of their own drum.  Karan and Anisha were our dream clients because when it comes to filmmaking, creativity is a symbiotic relationship and we feed off each others energy.  If you present us with loud and colorful style then you get wild and vibrant content in return and we all walk away with something truly amazing that the world has never seen and we love shooting Indian Weddings exactly for that reason!

With a stylish Sangeet at the Bently Reserve in downtown San Francisco, this film kicks off with a bang and unleashes a cinematic city vibe like no other.  Between their outfits (see designers below), the lively performances, and the lights from the golden gate bridge as their backdrop, this whole section feels like a scripted narrative film full of  hired actors and professional dancers and we often have to pinch ourselves to remind us that it was real.

The wedding day at the Palo Alto Hills Golf & Country Club was vibrant, gorgeous and tons of fun to shoot because everything was styled perfectly and each part of the day brought something magical and truly unique for us to capture.  The bride prep was glowing with gorgeous light, Karan rode into his baraat on a beautiful white horse and they danced their hearts out underneath the California sun as the parents of each family united and shared blessings with one another.  The ceremony was a perfect mix of Hindu and Western Culture as the couple carried out the Saptapadi (the seven steps), gave offerings of puffed rice to the sacred fire, read heartfelt vows to each other, and ended with an energetic dance down the aisle, bringing this lively and spiritual union full circle.  

For the reception they slipped into formal cocktail attire and brought a Great Gatsby like feel to the party as they performed their choreographed dances and celebrated with their closest friends and family.  The dance floor was reminiscent of a VIP Miami club scene and everybody was going wild! This luxurious reception was full of high energy, smiles, and laughter. If you want to see what having fun at your own wedding truly looks like then all you have to do is press play on the video below.  

Every detail of Anisha and Karan’s wedding was magical. It was one of those once in a lifetime weddings and we feel so blessed and honored to have been a part of it.  Working with Photographer Sandra Fazzino  and the wedding planner Charu Prakash was an absolute dream and we highly recommend booking them for your special day! Karan and Anisha were blown away when we sent them the final film and they said that we far exceeded their expectations. Anishas’ mom called us personally to thank us for the incredible work that we did and made us promise that we would come to their house for dinner next time we were in Palo Alto!  Getting a personal call from the mother of the bride was an extremely proud moment for us in the wedding industry and it further solidified that we were on the right track doing the right thing. This film will forever go down in history as one of our best and we owe it all to Karan and Anisha for believing in us and for taking us along for the ride!

Ritz Carlton Sarasota Wedding

Witness the beauty of Monique & John’s stunning Ritz Carlton Sarasota Wedding in Florida. This was an event depicting sheer elegance and luxury. It was a perfect fall day for this beautiful seaside wedding film which featured gorgeous aerial views of the Ritz and Sarasota Bay, the stunning couple, their touching vows, and incredible modern decor around every corner.

John is a professional poker player and Monique is his queen. These two lovebirds spared no expense but also had a down to earth attitude, were very laid back, and simply had a ton of fun at their own wedding which made shooting with them an absolute dream. What we loved most about their wedding was their fun and exciting first look, the incredible ceremony site with cascading flower arrangements dangling above the aisle, the gorgeous white flower walls and all of the thought and attention that were put into the details. This wedding was full of classic and regal elements from the gold chairs and glassware to the extravagant dessert table, the cuban cigar rolling station, and the club like vibe of the reception dance party.

Every one of the vendors listed below did an amazing job and we feel so blessed to have worked with such incredibly talented people in the Sarasota Wedding Industry and we wish Monique & John a lifetime of happiness. The Sarasota Ritz Carlton is one of our favorite local venues and we can’t wait to shoot another gorgeous film at that stunning location!
