Wedding at Soho 63, African Culture | Arizona Wedding Video I love it when traditional cultural attire is worn at weddings - such was the case at Amanda & Seni's wedding. Bright yellows, oranges, and greens with ornate hats and outfits were the attire of many of the couple's guests bringing back the roots of Seni's Nigerian roots. The wedding venue Soho 63 i...

Wonderful Wedding Surprises | Wedding Video Blog As a wedding Videographer it is my job to be prepared for the day and in sync with the other vendors who I will be working with. Some of the most frustrating weddings are those when the unexpected happens and finding myself in a situation I'm not prepared for. I could have the wrong lens, not enough...

Presenting The Master of Ceremonies! (Make Sure You Choose a Good One) | Arizona Wedding Videos When it comes to planning a wedding, there are many moving parts and decisions to consider. Weddings can be ridiculously expensive, most of us can't hire the best-of-the-best in every category, so we pick and choose which areas we want to invest more in. Every weekend I'm usually at a wedding or two...
