phoenix wedding cinema | rachel+john boutique wedding film

Phoenix Wedding Cinema: Life’s Story Studios presents a VAVL2 film: Rachel+John, a boutique wedding film.

At first glance, it was Rachel�s smile that caught John�s attention. Even though he normally wouldn�t have said anything without first knowing for sure that she liked him, he decided to introduce himself and get to know Rachel. He was glad he did. As they talked, they found out how much they both appreciated family. They found themselves as best friends in short order and then dated for 7 years. Julia, Rachel�s sister and maid of honor, said it well in her toast, �I couldn�t have imaged her (Rachel) marrying anybody else. �We have felt that you (John) have been apart of our family for a long time, but now it�s official and we could not be happier.� #johnandrachie

Phoenix Wedding Cinema: Life’s Story Studios presents a VAVL2 film: Mary+Mark, a boutique wedding film.

Mary & Mark�s day was gorgeous. Their Cinderella theme came off beautifully through Mary�s lovely wedding gown, the wedding colors, the invitations, the favors, and especially the cake. From getting ready at the Arizona Grand, to the ceremony at Mark�s alma mater Brophy Chapel, and then the reception at Secret Garden Event Center, the flow of the wedding was a display of their relationship and genuine love.

Phoenix Wedding Cinema: Life’s Story Studios presents a VAVL2 film: Sarah+Trevor, a boutique wedding film.

Trevor moved to Cali to do his own thing, and saw Sarah�s online profile the same week. Sarah & Trevor almost didn�t meet for their first date. Terrible LA gridlock made it almost impossible for Sarah to make it, and even though she was an hour and a half late, Trevor waited, and once together, they didn�t want it to end: the date lasted for 6-7 hours. Their love can�t be summed up in words: they both believe that actions show their love best. It was a pleasure serving them for both photography and cinematography on their big day at Ahwatukee Foothills Golf Club.

�Ghost� and �Ashe� by Songs of Water

Scottsdale Wedding Videographer: Life’s Story Studios presents a VAVL2 film: Rossa+Rami, a boutique wedding film.

Rossa & Rami met through a friend of Rami’s who lived in Louisiana and Rossa’s cousin who was attending LSU for pre-med. They started Skyping and Facetiming right away. They began to meet up twice a month as they were several states away. The first time they met face to face, Rami sat with Rossa at a table under a tree and he just knew this was the woman he was looking for. Rami proposed to Rossa in Tucson on a golf course. Rossa was deeply moved, but told him to hurry up because everyone was watching. That fits the two of them so well:: Rami is overt and vocal, and Rossa is reserved and calm. They both love those qualities about each other. We had the honor to do both photography and cinematography for their wedding day through the Gainey Vendor Experience at Gainey Ranch Golf Club.

scottsdale wedding videographer | morgan+brendan boutique wedding film

Scottsdale�Wedding Videographer: Life’s Story Studios presents a VAVL2 film: Morgan+Brendan, a boutique wedding film.

Morgan and Brendan met while interning for the Arizona Diamondbacks. While they got to know each other working there, their relationship didn�t blossom until Morgan moved on to Grand Canyon University. Brendan said, �We just decided to go for it�and never really looked back from there.� After six or seven months, Brendan recalls that he felt this relationship was the easiest he had ever been in. He says Morgan is �beautiful, she�s funny, she�s got a great sense of humor, she�s awesome with her family�she�s so graceful�.� Morgan says that what drew her to Brendan was �really everything about him: he�s smart, he�s funny, he�s caring, he�s always put my happiness before his own, and he just makes me really happy and it�s just easy, it�s comfortable.� She says that she�s been able to just be herself the whole time they�ve been together. Brendan proposed to Morgan on New Year�s Eve. Morgan had just returned from a business trip and was exhausted, but Brendan made her get up, shower, get dressed, and head out the door to Morgan�s parents� house. When they arrived, Morgan just wanted to go lay on the couch, but Brendan slowed her down and pulled her back from going inside. With her parents there, and her brother coming out of a bush to capture it all on film, Brendan asked for Morgan�s hand, and her response was �OF COURSE!� They are a great couple with an incredibly bright future. Morgan sums up their relationship with these words from Doctor Seuss: �We are all a little weird and life�s a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.”

scottsdale wedding videographer | an+milon boutique wedding film

Scottsdale�Wedding Videographer: Life’s Story Studios presents a VAVL2 film: An+Milon, a boutique wedding film.

An & Milon are a great couple. They’re both Doctors. They’re both fun to be around. They love each other. When they were both in medical school, An made the move to let Milon know that she was interested in him just before he left for his residency. “Oh, wow, really?” was his response. He made the move to Phoenix to be near her, and she made the transition really easy for him. She loves how intelligent and technologically advanced he is. He loves how brilliant she is and appreciates greatly her sense of style both in decor and the way she does things. They both think the other one is smarter. I think they’re both geniuses. I also believe that Milon has one of the best senses of humor of anyone I’ve ever met. He is so funny, though he is so humble and reserved that he doesn’t think he is. They did a traditional Vietnamese tea ceremony in the morning (she wore a traditional red dress), had a traditional Hindu wedding ceremony in the afternoon (they wore traditional Indian garb, i.e. a saree), and partied like Americans at night (they wore more American attire, i.e. a long white wedding gown and tuxedo).

phoenix wedding videographer | suzzi+geoff boutique wedding film

Phoenix Wedding Videographer: Life’s Story Studios presents a VAVL2 film: Suzzi+Geoff, a boutique wedding film.

We met Suzzi & Geoff at a bridal show, they won our free engagement session, and we became their photographers and videographers for their wedding! But so much better than that, they became our friends. They are also wanting to live on a plant-based diet like we are, so we love to go out to eat with each other! They are such a fun couple. They met each other at a party where Suzzi’s friend had meant to set them up. They talked about anything and everything, not wanting the night to end. Before the end of the evening, they had set up their first date. Geoff had planned on taking Suzzi out to dinner, but The Muppet Movie had just come out and Suzzi wanted to see it. Geoff said that he also loved The Muppets, so they went to see the movie instead. Suzzi was amazed that he would change his plans for her like that. Geoff loves that Suzzi loves caring for people, especially children. It took him the longest time to say “I love you” because he wanted to make sure it was real. It’s real! Suzzi believes Geoff knows how she’s thinking and feeling without her having to tell him, they are that connected. She always had hated the clich� of marrying one’s best friend, but it is true of the relationship Suzzi and Geoff share: she truly married her best friend.

Phoenix Wedding Videographer: Life’s Story Studios presents a VAVL2 film: Mia+Iosif, a boutique wedding film.

It is a special blessing for me to see previous students grow older and get married. It’s even more of a privilege when they trust me enough to photography or video their wedding. Mia was my Algebra student back at Deer Valley High School. I was honored to be invited to capture her wedding to Iosif and create this film for them. Their Romanian heritage shines through. From the love of an incredible extended family, to the entire ceremony and reception being held strictly in the Romanian language, they stayed true to their family’s roots. It was a beautiful day to cherish. Congratulations, Mia+Iosif!

Phoenix Wedding Videographer: Life’s Story Studios presents a VAVL2 film: Ashley+Brad, a wedding boutique film.

Mr. Brad and Dr. Ashley Loeb met in a calculus course in college that Brad had already taken in high school.� His mom suggested to go ahead and take it again just to hone his math skills, and isn’t he glad he listened to her!� Ashley needed a tutor for the class, and Brad was more than willing to step in a fill that need.� According to Ashley, when they first met she remembers him being “tall and kind of dorky and [she] didn’t know what to think at first but he was really nice.” Brad says that the first time he saw her he “probably just thought she was cute.”� From there, their love has blossomed and deepened to where they would say in the stylings of the great Dr. Seuss: “Ashley, I take you to be my wife, I will love you on the sea, I will love you in a tree, I will love you here and there, I will love you anywhere.� Brad, I take you to be my husband.� I will love you everyday, I will love you come what may, I will love you more than apple pie, I will love you til I die.� On the sea, in a tree, every day, come what may, I will love you here and there, I will love you anywhere.”

val vista lakes wedding videographers | brianna+brandon boutique film

Brianna & Brandon have a true puppy love that all started back when Brandon was a basketball player at their high school in Casa Grande and he catcalled at Brianna! �She didn’t respond to him right then, but, after he apologized, they connected and have stayed connected for ten years. �The confidence that he portrayed really drew Brianna to Brandon. �Brandon appreciates that Brianna knows how strong and powerful she really is and he believes she uses that strength in the most perfect ways. �When Brandon decided to�propose, he really didn’t expect the day to go as it did. �He wanted to give Brianna the ring as a Christmas present. �He told her that he couldn’t wait to give her the Christmas gift he’d prepared for her. �They made their way through all of their family events for the day,�about 5 or 6 different stops. �Then Brianna needed a trip to the urgent care! �Even though she was feeling poorly, and even though they were both exhausted, Brandon said that they just HAD to do presents. �So at 11:52pm, Brandon gave her his gift. �Her first reaction was that it wasn’t the purse she’d wanted and she was almost disappointed because she just saw a teddy bear, but there was the ring! �Brandon dropped to one exhausted knee, and asked Brianna to spend the rest of her life with him. �She said yes. �It was a very…very long day. �They will always remember Christmas Day, 2009, and we will always remember them and their wedding day with great fondness because�they are such an amazing couple.
