I had the opportunity to photograph Mindi Abair’s Wine & Jazz New Year’s Eve event at the Loews Coronado Island Resort, an evening filled with great music, energy, and a beautifully curated atmosphere. The night blended live jazz performances with an elegant wine experience, set against the backdrop of Coronado Island. Below are a few highlights from the event.

I get a lot of questions about how we film our weddings. Here is a behind-the-scenes look at our editing. We usually film the ceremony with 3 cameras so we have the best chance of catching the best angle of all the important moments. It seems like at MOST weddings, someone will stand right in front of my camera at just the wrong time. Filming in this way gives us the best chance of making a great video for you. We also record audio on 3 dedicated audio recorders (in addition to the on-camera audio). We will mic up the officiant and the groom – plus we will pull audio from the DJ’s microphone setup. Again, having this redundancy has proven to be a lifesaver on multiple occasions.
