A Same Day Edit that transitions into a first dance with LIVE video. Both Rohan and Semmy didn't fully understand how we'll make it possible, but they gave me the "go ahead" as they knew they hired the best Bay Area Indian Wedding Cinematography team for their wedding. I automatically got excited, started testing equipment, bought adapters, bought wireless transmitters, bought more adapters and got super nervous. I knew that in order for the LIVE Same Day Edit to be epic, it has to be flawless and the bride and groom HAVE to still enjoy their first dance at the Grand Island Mansion. I wanted to make sure that the focus is still on the bride and groom, not on us. Before I jump into all the details, I want to tell you that it was amazing and everything worked. We were 100% spot on. The days were jam-packed and we required multiple teams filming at multiple location. Our last day was a 20 hour work day - crazy. Our team consisted of 7 guys, each pulling a part of the load to make the show possible. Through out the day, we copied the footage to fast SSDs (Samsung 2TB T3 SSD) and edited in Final Cut Pro X to make sure that my editing is fast and seamless. Additionally, I still wanted to include the Grand Entrance into the Same Day Edit. That meant collecting the cards from all recording camera and intricate editing right after the grand entrance to make sure we make it on time for the Same Day Edit premiere. But I want to pause here and point something out: we have done this before. Our team has pulled off Same Day Edits that include grand entrance shots that happened 15 minutes before showing of the SDE. Our challenge here was...

The beautiful couple danced away in the sunset with gorgeous vineyards and gardens in the background. Me and my team loved filming the nature and spectacular views of the Mayacamas mountains. The heat was there to challenge us, but I love how we pulled off an amazing story of this couple. As a Napa Valley wedding videographer, I love to tell stories in these enchanted valleys. On a technical side. Our team used 5 cameras (Canon 5D MK III DSLRs) and many "L series" lenses. Audio wise, I had the groom and officiant mic'ed up for the ceremony using mini lavs, additionally pulling a feed off of the mixer (for backup). For reception, I simplified the audio, but had a few duplicate audio recorders running from the mixer. We used a Jib to give us those cinematic shots that are hard to get with regular tripods or monopods. Looking over the shots, as a team, we did an amazing job "harmonizing" shots and making sure they work together. I usually plan our camera layout prior to the ceremony and reception to give us the shots I want. More importantly, so we can work effectively and to get the best coverage possible. With experience, we are able to plan our layout within minutes, but each wedding is a challenge. The opening aerial shots, I do for fun. I love flying a camera in the air to get an amazing view. I edit and color-correct/grade in FCPX (I love Final Cut) using built in color correction and a few plugins. Over the years, I developed this basic but effective principle to work by : with amazing footage, you can make an amazing film! So me and my team does just that. Enjoy this short film![/vc_column_text][message type="normal" border="yes" background_color="#f2f2f2" border_width="1" border_color="#e5e5e5" close_button_color="#c4c4c4"] Are you looking for a Wedding Cinematographer? [icons size='fa-1x' custom_size='' icon='fa-arrow-circle-o-right' type='normal' position='' border='yes' border_color='' icon_color='#303030' background_color='' margin='0 0 0 5px' icon_animation='' icon_animation_delay='' link='/wedding-cinematography/' target='_self'] [/message][vc_column_text css=".vc_custom_1508969765216{margin-top: 30px !important;}"]Cinematography: Aperina Studios Venue Reception: Brix...

Especially when we plan a complicated Same Day Edit that requires our team to be on our tippy toes at all times to pull it off. An edit that is still in the editing process 15 minutes before "show-time." We challenged ourself to include the Grand Entrance and First Dance into the Same Day Edit and show our masterpiece 15 minutes after that all happened. Those 15 minutes are stressful, but rewarding when you see the couple smiling and surprised. It's a humbling and rewarding experience.

The beautiful couple was full of energy, smiling and enjoying their wedding days. We loved becoming part of the family for a few days to capture the story of Ricky and Preeti! Behind the scenes, working as a cinematographer on this 18 hour wedding day, it was not all fun and games. Even though the wedding was beautiful and fun, it honestly pushed the limits of our team - physically, creatively and emotionally. Some weddings, a beginner can film them (they are simply easy). But this wedding, you had to be a true professional to pull off great footage. I'm a proud that our team did just that. We communicated all day on long range walkie-talkies (this was super important), walked/ran about 9 miles (my fitness tracker can prove that), and best of all, we captured some beautiful footage![/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][message type="normal" border="yes" background_color="#f2f2f2" border_width="1" border_color="#e5e5e5" close_button_color="#c4c4c4"] Are you looking for Indian Wedding Cinematography Services? [icons size='fa-1x' custom_size='' icon='fa-arrow-circle-o-right' type='normal' position='' border='yes' border_color='' icon_color='#303030' background_color='' margin='0 0 0 5px' icon_animation='' icon_animation_delay='' link='/indian-wedding-videography/' target='_self'] [/message][vc_column_text css=".vc_custom_1505433235886{margin-top: 30px !important;}"]Cinematography: Aperina Studios Photography: Aperina Studios Venue Groom Sangeet: Flamingo Palace Banquet Hall Venue Reception: Green Gate Ranch and Vineyards Catering: Manohar Delhi Palace  DJ: Prestige Entertainment Florist: Elegant Details[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=".vc_custom_1503514858621{margin-top: 30px !important;}"] We are an Bay Area Indian Wedding Videography company that creates cinematic films.

I met with Umang and Shivani a few weeks prior to their event, got to know them and their story a lot more, scouted the venue, talked in detail about their event and even chose the garage that I will be editing my Same Day Edit in. During the 3 days of wedding events, we filmed 96 hours collectively as a team capturing their beautiful wedding story. We challenged ourselves to include the couple's first dance into the Same Day Edit - something that was way too close to the premiere. I finished editing the Same Day Edit ten minutes before showtime in the little garage and took the exported file to the reception tent to play on the big screen. I'd love for you check out Umang and Shivani's Same Day Edit.

We have recently been filming more and more Indian weddings and by now we have really fallen in love with their colorful, rich culture. When Arun & Nishi initially met with us and wanted to do a same-day-edit video for their reception, we were very excited for this challenge. Then they pulled out a little bigger challenge out of their pockets...

[vc_row css_animation="" row_type="row" use_row_as_full_screen_section="no" type="full_width" angled_section="no" text_align="left" background_image_as_pattern="without_pattern"][vc_column][vc_column_text]Starting out with the initial meetings to filming for 6 days and photographing for 7 days, our relationship with Mandeep and Roop was simply amazing. Over time we became really good friends and as the bride wrote to us after the wedding, we kind of became part of their family throughout all the events. That feeling made our job so much more enjoyable as we worked closely with them to make sure that we capture their special days with intricate attention to all the details that surround an Indian wedding. We brought home over 1TB of footage and over 21,000 photos in the end. It was a definitely a challenge in many aspects which made us try harder and be more creative, but we loved every second of it. I am very lucky to love what I do! Even though we had a busy schedule during the days of their events but my brother and I decided to surprise the couple and all the guests with a Same Day Edit video to show at their reception. The feedback we got was 'speechless'. Roop, Mandeep and many of the guests came up to us after the wedding reception and couldn't stop talking about the short film they just saw...

We were booked more than 18 months before the wedding and by the time the wedding came, we've gotten to know them so well that we consider them our friends. We worked with them a few times before the wedding, filming their love story and a few more things in Sacramento. Getting to know them on a personal level made me understand again how important it is to know our clients on a personal level and not just a "professional" level. It allows us to be a little bit more involved in the wedding and create a beautiful film. Mark and Lynelle really wanted a Same Day Edit so that the wedding guests can get to know them and their story a little bit more. As a leading Sacramento wedding videography company, we were able to pull that off really well. We were set to show the Same Day Edit at 8:30pm. I started editing the SDE at 4pm at Wine and Roses Hotel. Around 6:30pm, I was basically done. I've never finished a Same Day Edit that fast! I spent an extra 45 minutes Color Grading and tweaking the Same Day Edit. It was time to show what our team has been working on all day and I was nervous (for no reason). I pressed play and watched the bride and groom tear up from joy and laughter while watching their story. I knew I have created a memory for them and their guests. It was a really humbling experience for me and my team. I do want to thank the Bride and Groom for giving me the opportunity to create their Wedding Story for them. I would also like to thank my awesome cinema team. Without them, the Same Day Edit would not be possible.

My brother and I strongly believe in constantly improving and modernizing our company to provide the best service and the most beautiful final product we can to our lovely couples. Two weeks before filming Jared & Sarah's wedding at the beautiful Scribner Bend Vineyards, we spontaneously invested into a DJI Phantom Drone and got it delivered a couple days before the wedding. We quickly tested it out and got a hang of it in time for the wedding, where we flew it into the sky to create beautiful aerial shots of the gorgeous vinery :) Aerial shots aren't the only unique thing we did for this couple. I actually flew out to Denver, CO a couple months before the wedding to film Jared & Sarah's love story and to show a tiny glimpse of their new hometown of Denver in their Same-Day-Edit video. On the day of the wedding, my brother Vitaliy quickly edited the video while our team and I filmed and constantly delivered our media cards full of creative shots to him to put together and have a video ready to show by 8pm. With the amount of excited and positive feedback we got from numerous guests coming up to us after the wedding, I believe we did what Jared & Sarah hired us to do: tell the story of their love through our lens in a creative and beautiful film. We are a Sacramento Wedding Videography company that works creatively, professionally and passionately capturing your wedding day. We tell stories through our wedding films. Let us tell your wedding story!...
