New Updated Website!

I have some exciting news to share... I've updated our former flash-based website with a shiny new html site. I loved the idea of using a blog template for the new site as you are all used to reading wedding blogs and it just makes a lot of sense for ease of updating. It's nice and clean and has all the info you want from Hello Super 8.

Check it out and please let me know what you think!

Terra & Kevin's Marin, CA super 8 wedding film

Terra and Kevin wed in the misty hills of Marin, just over the Golden Gate Bridge. The Headland Center of the Arts was the perfect setting for their intimate ceremony and fun reception. The stylish couple pulled out all the stops for their rustic themed celebration. They were both so so happy that day and I think this little film captures their affection for one another perfectly.

Ashley & Drew's rainbow-tastic beach/ranch wedding

It's hard picking favorite weddings because they all have their own unique qualities, but Ashley and Drew's Dos Pueblos Ranch wedding in Santa Barbara, CA was really something special. It combined so many elements that I personally love including a beautiful barefoot ceremony on the beach, a raucous barn reception, a rainbow color theme (yay rainbows!), delicious food, AND tons of amazing music. There was so much thought in all of the details... for example, the tables were named after albums with COLORS in their titles (like Yellow Submarine, Purple Rain, Back in Black, In Rainbows). And the amazing event designer, Tricia Fountaine crafted the event spectacularly (hello found drift wood chandeliers). I could go on and on but it really was a particularly grand day.

a visit to Putney House, Vermont (super 8 film)

I was invited to my friend's family vacation home in Vermont last month and decided to take along my trusty super 8 camera and a roll of film. The setting was absolutely amazing and the house, well, let's just say it was kind of my dream house. An architectural wonder on acres and acres of pristine wooded Vermont goodness. A small group of us explored the house and the grounds and this is just a little fun something I shot along the way, set to a perty song. :)



(Oh, and in case you're wondering, my friends don't have bad fashion sense... the orange hats/vests were for hunting season).

Rachel & Chris' Blue Hill at Stone Barns wedding

Rachel & Chris' affair was wedding perfection! Every little detail was executed with the utmost thought and care. The dress! The flowers! The food! The music! The setting! That cake! And the love between the two of them was palpable. They were so sweet with each other but also completely fun-loving. One can only dream of wedding magic like this one.
