Time to share another highlights clip as it’s been a while now since you’ve seen a new one of those from us. Let me present to you Elizabeth and James who tied the knot back in July at Highclere Castle in Hampshire. As I mentioned before, Highclere Castle is without doubt one of our favourite venues in the UK, everything there is just perfect and this time was no different. We also had the pleasure of working together with the fabulous Julia Boggio. With all those talents, the most excellent of venues and one of the most beautiful brides we’ve ever had and obviously, a handsome groom, we knew we were in for a treat. Even the weather was on its best behaviour for the day. Elizabeth and James really had a perfect day.

This weekend we’re back in Hampshire, this time at the Tithe Barn and we get to work together again with one of favourite photographers, Rob at Shooting Hip. If you haven’t done so before, please go check out his blog. Not only are his pictures a delight for your eyes, he also always manages to add some very witty comments.

And then finally another little news item: Ever After now has a Facebook page, so if you are on Facebook please give us a visit and sign up. It’s one of the best ways to stay up to date with what’s going here at Ever After (and there are some big changes coming soon!). Or if you’re not on Facebook, just follow us on Twitter!

Every year the Ever After team tries to attend at least 1 videographer’s convention. Apart from a great oppportunity to meet fellow videographers from across the globe and some inspiring seminars, the WEVA International convention also hosts the annual Creative Excellence Award ceremony. Hundreds of videographers send in their work to be judged by a jury of peers, the results are announced during the openingsgala dinner of this convention in Orlando. After scooping last year’s ‘Best Wedding Day Film’ in the UK, we plucked up the courage to sent in some work for the WEVA Creative Excellence Awards (CEA’s). We were truly honoured and surprised when we heard our name. By the time we got to the podium to receive our CEA for best Shortform, we were leaping with joy both for winning and for the congratulations we received from some of the best studios worldwide. During the rest of the convention, we attend some great seminars that inspirated and challenged some ideas. The atmosphere of sharing and support from studios with distinct ideas and traditions is what makes one proud to be a Wedding Videographer. Thanks to all you guys and girls who have made this once again a memorable trip.

 I have some more UK news as well. Ever After is happy to announce that we will host 2 seminars at this year’s IOV convention in Coventry. One seminar will introduce the concept of Shortform Wedding Films, the other will focus on marketing in the brave new world of Social Media. We look forward to sharing our passion and ideas with our UK collegues.
