While I’m not always originally contacted by the bride and groom, when it comes to wedding photography and wedding videography, I always want to be in contact with the bride and groom in some way before the wedding day. Because at the end of the day, it’s their wedding video and wedding photos that they will have for the rest of their lives, and I want to make sure it’s exactly the way they want it.
So when I was first contacted by Aleksandra’s mum with an unusual request, I wasn’t sure if I should say yes. You see, she and Aleksandra’s fiance George wanted to get a surprise present for Aleksandra and what a better surprise than a highlight video of their wedding day! But after listening to how enthusiastic and loving Aleksandra’s mum was I couldn’t say no. And no wonder they wanted to get her a surprise. Alexandra is such a gift.
The whole wedding day was planned perfectly. The surprise couldn’t have been better pulled off. However, things that are perfectly planned don’t always go to plan. It was so windy on the day that we had a lot of difficulties flying our drone and during the photoshoot, dirt was flying into my eyes. I had to borrow the groom’s sunnies at one point just to get the shot. But you wouldn’t notice it in the video. Not from my talent, but from how the couple just took the whole day in stride. All that mattered was their love. And at least the wind did make for some amazing veil shots.
Congratulations to Aleksandra and George. We wish them all the best in their married life ahead. And thank you for choosing Thez Weddings
