Off to London to shoot Nicole & Ben’s Wedding (via Paris)
By way of Paris first! Couldn’t pass up the opportunity to visit one of my favorite cities in the world. My wife and I will be staying in a beautiful apartment across the street from Cathédrale Notre Dame. We wanted to live like Parisians for a week, hanging out at the local Brasserie, rather than doing all the typical tourist activities.





Then its off on the Eurostar Train, through the Chunnel and back to London.

Nicole and Ben get married on December 12th at the Park Lane Hotel, Piccadilly. Helping me film the event are none other than Sylvia and Niels from Ever After Video Productions, the best event filmmakers in the UK! I am honored to have them aboard.

I am very much looking forward to spending time with all my old friends and family.
UPDATE 12/15/09
Getting ready to leave London. Very sad to say goodbye, as I had such an amazing time. My family were so much fun to be around and treated my wife and I like celebrities. Nicole and Ben’s wedding was stunning, and although I worked really hard capturing the magic, i had a wonderful time. It was a bit of a surreal experience shooting, as 1/2 of the guests were my close relatives and friends. Thank god I had the amazing team of Sylvia and Niels from Ever After to help out. They did such a great job, and worked so hard, driving all the way down from Sheffield in the ‘orrible English traffic.
Special surprise was visit from Andre Foster. I looked up and saw him shooting on the dance floor. He had come straight from his own wedding in Croydon to help out. Pleasure to see him and honored he would do such a thing. The photos were taken by my lovely sweet friend Sharon Green and then Jamie Gordon. It was also a pleasure to meet and work with Jamie. He was so gracious and obliging, as I knew four event filmmakers on the dance floor at one time must have been really hard for him to get around and shoot. Here are some random images from the London trip:
