Chad & Jennifer

Click Here to view a very cool clip from Jen & Chad's wedding!

Chad & Jen were some of the coolest people I've ever hung out with at a wedding! There wedding turned out great, and their video was truly awesome, a big part because of Prem & Cheridy of Arising Images Photography. They are truly phenomenal artists and we had fun inspiring each other all day long with different shot ideas!


We spent the first part of the day shooting in Downtown Mt. Clemens, which has a lot of unique structures and is actually quite beautiful. Chad & Jen saw each other downtown for the first time that day, and got married at St. Peter Catholic Church right in Mt. Clemens.

Click here for another clip from their church.



Their Reception was at the Italian American Center at Partridge Creek. It was a great day, a great night, and a very inspiring event. Thanks for letting me be a part of it!

"The Greatest"


In between editing Wedding Videos, we sometimes find time to produce other projects. This video stars my nephew, Giovanni Santilli, age 2. It is a music video to the Kenny Rogers song "The Greatest", and from the moment I heard it a few years back, I immediately wanted to produce this video with Giovanni!

I finally produced it just in time for his mommy's birthday (my sister-in-law Julie). In just 2 days on youtube, it had over 200 views!

Click Here to see the clip on youtube.com, and feel free to comment and/or send the link along to everyone you know!

We enjoy making all kinds of video, so if you have an idea of your own that you would like to see come to life, let us know and we'll make it happen!

Angela & Louis Sail Into the Sunset

This latest wedding post is an example of everything going right. It was the perfect type of weather on such a perfect day. Angela looked beautiful and from Louis’ reaction, he seemed to realize how lucky he was to have her as his bride.


The location was Jefferson Beach Marina on the Infinity Yacht. The breeze, the sun and the water just complemented the energy and emotion of their day. We were honored to have been able to meet such great people and capture such a beautiful wedding.
