A client recently asked if I could put together "one of those videos where you edit pictures to music." His wife's 50th birthday was coming up and he wanted something nice to show at the party.
You mean, a montage? Sure. I do those.
He gave me 100 pictures, a few video clips, and a CD with a favorite U2 song. After a few instructions I was sent off to work my magic.
I showed him the finished video two days before the party and he ordered eight copies on DVD. He was very excited. He said I "far exceeded his expectations."
I just uploaded it to the website. Here's the link.
Most couples include photo montages with their wedding videos. Many include growing up pictures, their courtship, engagement photos. Others also include honeymoon pictures which make a nice addition to the end of a wedding video.
Photo montages also make a great gift for Mother's Day and Father's Day or a birthday for someone special in your life. It's a lasting memory that's sure to bring tears to their eyes.
Give me a call and I hope you give a great gift at an affordable price. 540-293-5979.

Amy and Justin's Wedding
Finished up editing Amy and Justin's wedding. They had an outdoor ceremony and reception at Nesselrod on the New in Radford, VA. Beautiful wedding day at a beautiful venue. They're a blessed couple. Here's the video clip that plays in the opening menu of their wedding DVD.

Jennifer and Scott's Wedding
As I've posted here numerous times, I am really nervous when I send out a finished video. By this point I really shouldn't be. Here are some nice words sent to me by a couple whose wedding I shot at The Homestead a few months ago.
Here's a quick little edit from some of the footage of their beautiful day (despite the all of the bugs). BTW, I'm not really thrilled with the compression quality through blogger. Hopefully the clip I upload to the Shared Moments Video facebook page will have a higher resolution. Either way, enjoy.The video is amazingly beautiful!!! We couldn't be more pleased with what you put together. Thank you for capturing our wedding so perfectly and allowing us to share our memories.....
Sincerely,
Jennifer and Scott

Not just weddings
I don't know how many weddings I've produced videos for. Frankly, I don't feel like counting.
Shared Moments Video is a full event videography service too. We're not just weddings. I've produced a number of corporate videos, sporting events, and recently have tapped into the dance recital market. When one thinks of a dance recital, typically high school or children's programs come to mind. I'd be happy to capture those memories for you.
Colleges have recitals throughout the year, as well, and they are highly artistic. Here are a few clips I've edited from Radford University's Fall Dance Fest.

More New Video Added
3 new video clips online... Meghan & Chad's Wedding at The Homestead.
Click on the link: http://www.sharedmomentsvideo.com/Meghan_and_Chad.htmlI'll be doing more of these posts and adding the video webpages to the SMV packages as I retool my offerings after the HD conversion. The webpages can be shared easily with family and friends.

Wrapping up a few edits
I was blessed with a lot of work this spring and summer. With so many weddings to shoot comes a tremendous backlog of video to edit.
I recently wrapped up Meghan and Chad's DVD. They were married at The Homestead and their ceremony and reception were a lot of fun. I'll be upload video of their wedding soon.
As I type this, the video for Beth and Kyle's wedding is currently encoding. Their ceremony was outdoors at Maison Beliveau near Blacksburg. It was a very windy day, but everything came out great. I've uploaded the closing credits from their DVD. Hopefully the "aged film" filter comes out clean online. Trust me, it looks great on TV.
I really appreciate the patience my couples show in waiting for their video to be finished. I know it's tough. You want to see it and relive the day, but it takes A LOT of work to edit the video properly and I never rush through it for the sake of getting it out the door quickly.
That would be cheating you and selling my work short. To me, it's not worth it.

New Video Added
I have several facebook friends who have become "fans" of my Shared Moments Video page on FB. I plan to actively update the video clips here on the blog, my website, and on facebook.
If you have a blog or facebook page we can arrange to have your videos uploaded for all of your friends and family to see!
Here is the special recap I edited for Elise and Jason's wedding last summer. I used an aged-film effect to stylize the video. Their choice of music was Michael Peterson's "From Here to Eternity" and I think it worked really well.
Enjoy.
Apparently the video compression settings are not ideal for uploading through blogger and the video effect does not show well. Please understand the video on the finished DVD is crisp and looks great. For whatever reason it didn't translate here. You can still get a feel for the composition.

New Look, New Services
If you've visited SharedMomentsVideo.com before (prior to March 31st) then you may recognize the new look... new logo, new colors, more video clips. I hope you like the changes.
But the site's new look is not the only change I've made. Heretofore, I've "hand-edited" all of my photo montages. The custom results looked good, but took a lot of time to produce. I've recently upgraded the software and you'll be blown away by the new results... I've attached a photo montage of my new baby son, Cole.
If your wedding package includes a photo montage, yours will look great like this one. The price is still the same to add a montage... $2/jpg, $4/picture I have to scan. For example, if you provide a CD with 30 jpgs the price is $60.
For the facebook/myspace social media crowd (or anyone with a blog) I'll be offering to upload clips of the finished video to the web to post to those sites. If you have a youtube account, I'll send it there. Vimeo? Same deal. Want me to drop those video files onto a CD for you to upload? No sweat.
This way, you'll be able to email the clips to friends and family. Let's let as many people as possible see the video from your big day!
