ö So where do I begin? Should I start out with how much fun my team and I had while shooting this wedding? Post some behind-the-scenes pictures? How high stress was running? How much of an incredible night this wedding was? The funny and awkward moments that happened during the day + night? How hard it is to put on a Same Day Edit for the first time? Or with what the difference between clients and friends are – I couldn’t really tell this time!
1. The day + night was epic for starters.
2. Though it was one hell of a tiring day for me in particular – I’m so proud of my team and both Sherry + Denys for rocking on during the entire day!
3. Oh yeah, did I forget to mention how incredible the day was not including the gajillion desserts they had to offer *drooools*
4. I’m certain that I cracked a whole bunch of jokes that SUCKED lol during the day, to cure and put an end to the stress going on throughout the night
5. Putting on a Same Day Edit is no joke but the KEY – is being over but well prepared and learning how to cope with everything that doesn’t go according to YOUR plan.
öI ‘d like to start off by thanking everyone from Nick Kazlovskis, Connor Beardsly, Jonny Page, Lucas Joseph , Isuru Abeysekera, Prashanna Jayaseelan {for all the insight and profound knowledge you willingly shared with me}, my family and my friends in particular {who never heard the end of this wedding from the time I met Sherry and Denys} and most of all God.
ö My team really came through on the day of this wedding – on all ends – plain and simple.
My family and friends really held be down.
ö The day started off super well at about 7 am for me and Jonny. I was with Sherry while Jonny was with Denys. By the time we got to the Church in the early afternoon – nerves were jittery! I left my laptop at the brides house – no big deal right? Needless to say, I got it back and all was well! By the time our superstars, Sherry and Denys had officially {wahooo!} tied the knot – we were on our way to starting and finishing their photo-session and proceeded on to the evening’s festivities!
ö The night was filled with plenty of speeches, slideshows, a dance performance & one awesome live spanish band!
ö I got the chance to premier the {Portrait Film} that I shot with these Sherry & Denys – to everyone that attended that night – #EPICNESS. It’s pretty awesome when you see you’re own work being premiered on a huge screen, almost like the movies no?

ö Contrary to the Same Day Edit that I cut together on the night of – I knew I just didn’t do it ENOUGH justice. So here goes the final piece of that day + night which also includes footage from the night before at Sherry’s Mylanchi.
ö I’d like to especially and continually thank Sherry and Denys for supporting my team and myself. I know we all have come a long way since we first started speaking in August, since you two got engaged and shot the {Portrait Film} with me. But I can’t say thank you enough! Your families embraced everyone on the team with nothing short of a warm welcome – including all of those flower girls who coined us guys with the cameras as “Camera Boy!”
ö I wish you two nothing but the best for your future and would definitely like to say one thing in closing. Some people refer to the people they work with as “Clients” but I choose “friends” instead.
To S + D,
You two started out as complete strangers to me and eventually turned into great people that I had the pleasure of getting to know. Keep in touch and do let us know when little Malayalee and South American kids are on the rise!
