Feedback

Just wanted to share another "testimonial" I received from a family I worked with in August. I am appreciative that the "H Family" enjoyed working with me as much as I enjoyed seeing fun memories of their past through their photos.

"Dear Shannon,
The DVD you created for my Dad's 65th birthday was amazing! It was a huge hit at the party. The songs went with the pictures perfectly and the order of the pictures was exactly right. There were parts where the guests at the party were in tears and other parts where everyone was laughing! Your professionalism and expertise are unparalleled. You were able to turn a series of pictures we gave you (some hard copy, others digital) into a work of art and in a short period of time. It was an absolute pleasure to work with you. In summary, everyone loved what you created- the guests at the party, my family, and especially my father. Thank you for making this milestone birthday one he will never forget!"

Wedding Videos



Angela, the mother-of-the-bride (MOB) of the aforementioned wedding was kind enough to allow me to share two videos I created for her with you. Angela contacted me a few weeks ago before the Sept. 19th wedding and she requested two videos: one of the bride and her father for their dance at the reception and one of the bride and groom to be shown during their first dance. Each video has one song (the song they danced to) and uses photos Angela provided me with.

Grateful for Positive Feedback

At this time I just put the finishing touches on two DVDs for an upcoming wedding. The mother of the bride contacted me a couple weeks ago about creating a DVD for the father-daughter dance as well as the couple's first dance at the reception. I was thrilled to see her reaction last week when we met in person to preview the videos and after I made a few minor adjustments she requested, she sent me a wonderful e-mail.

"We love both videos! I was going to surprise my husband at the wedding with the video of him and (daughter), but I decided to let him see it first and I am so glad I did. He fell completely apart...He said that it crystallized the impact of his baby getting married and he recalled each event in each picture- every one of them had a very special meaning to him. He just cried and cried. He said that you did an outstanding job...He also said and I agree, that the photos, music and lyrics were impeccably choreographed. Excellent Excellent job Shannon! The thought and skill that you put into the videos has brought us a lot of joy and we can hardly wait to share our memories with our guests."

As a young entrepreneur, messages like these are very reassuring. My goal when I work with clients is to make sure they are completely satisfied with the product I create for them and I hope that the bride enjoys seeing the videos on her wedding day this weekend. With her permission, I would like to post the videos on the blog...hopefully you will get to see them soon!
