Still Motion TTD
September 12th, 2008 @ 5:19 pm by Mrs. Penguin
Being a videographer myself, it’s funny to think that videography was not really important to us at our wedding. While we hired a friend that was a professional videographer (who did not specialize in weddings), we never really considered videography to be something that was “worth it”.
That is, not until we caught a glimpse of the amazing work of the Canadian videographers over at Still Motion! I (and many others!) oohed and ahhed over Mrs. Milkshake’s same-day edit by Still Motion, and since they’ve been blogged about before, I don’t have to go on about their incredible work, but I DO want to share this awesome trash the dress video session of my good friend Griffen and her new husband Curtis. While the trash the dress photo shoot is not new to any of us, this is the first time I’ve seen a TTD video, and it takes the concept to a whole new level!
Check it out:

Seeing Still Motion’s work makes me wish we squeezed the budget just a little more to be able to afford something like this! Every video they post on their blog leaves me in awe! Griffen told me that her dress, amazingly, is still in beautiful condition even after the shoot! Congrats to you both on an amazing wedding, and for introducing me to the TTD video concept!

If you haven’t checked out the highlights video for that same wedding yet, go check it out! Its really amazing!!! Total wedding envy!
Her dress gets soooo dirty. I love it. 
*groan* I’m so jealous it hurts.
Not only is the shoot amazing, but the bride’s accessories, hair, makeup & dress are gorgeous. Any idea where she got her veil?
Hi ladies, many thanks for all the kind words. Still-Motion is talented beyond words and I still cannot thank them enough for all of their work. I would recommend them in a heart beat to any bride wanting cinematography at her wedding. But I think the absolute best thing I could say about them is that, beyond their talent, they are kind, sincere, wonderful people - all of them. This, above all is what is important to surround yourself with on what can be a stressful day.
Chibride: I got my mantilla veil off of WeddingBee classifieds 
It doesn’t have a designer tag, so I don’t know who made it unfortunately. But I’ve seen mantillas on the boards since, so I advise to scoure them often
My accessories were all from Macy’s - with the exception of my blue right hand ring which was my great-grandmothers.
I did my hair and make-up for the Trash the Dress, but for the Same Day Edit, my make-up was done by the incomparable Audrey Crandell of Glowing Bridal. She’s the absolute best, just a doll!
Thanks to Pengy for the post
I love it! Our videographer is flying to CA to do our TTD shoot also…I am totally sending him this link beforehand so he sees what I’m wanting!!
Uh-may-zing! You look gorgeous!
I can’t express how exhilarated I am after watching that video. I think I forgot to breathe! Awesome….really.
I am still wide-eyed… and wiping tears. The part at the end where she spins around gave me an ache in my heart. Too beautiful. Such talent!
OMG! That was THE most amazing TTD video I have ever seen. Castle de amorosa is an awesome backdrop!
Here is yet another, yet not as fab, TTD video from still-motion:
I am speechless! The work is phenomenal and I would LOVE to have a TTD session with Still Motion. That is an amazing video! Thank you and your friend for sharing.
very beautiful - thank you for sharing !!
Oh em gee! I think I just peed my pants a little. That’s amazing!
Still Motion just blows my mind! Your friend is so beautiful. I could watch this over and over.
Wow …. so beautiful! I love the song.
Who sings it?
Wow …. so beautiful…such great way to remember! I love the song.
Who sings it?
I don’t have words for that. The beautiful couple, stunning location, the angles, the moody intimacy of the footage…amazing.
The song is Frou Frou - Breathe In.
Amazing work as always Patrick *two thumbs up*
Beautiful, but I actually find it a little bit creepy.
… i want that steadycam…. *drool*
I forgot to say that all of the stills in the video were taken by Amina, who heads up Still-Motion’s photography department. She is a blast to work with and an incredible talent.
I LOVE StillMotion. We’re soo hooked on their videos that we watch them all the time. Too bad they’re in Canada and I can’t afford to fly them down for our wedding. Their work is awesome! Does anyone know of a videographer that does wedding cinematography like that in the LA/OC area?
wow!
Watching this I got excited! I’m in Toronto! They are so close then I saw that their packages start at 5grand. I almost burst into tears. It’s exactly what I wanted.
It’s soo stunning that I can’t imagine not wanting to watch that over and over!
Thanks for all the love guys. Griffen and Curtis are quite amazing aren’t they
Joyce- if you want to email us I can send you some referrals.
Brandy- sorry to hear its out of your budget. It can be quite the investment to have wedding cinematography done at this level.
zombiebride- that is so cool that you know it is a steadycam
Nat- thanks for the comment. Your turn soon
Miss Sweet Tea - Castello di Amorosa winery in Calistoga, and Bodega Bay (colder than cold Bodega Bay).
Awesome! Completely beautiful
griffen!!!! this is beautiful!
Love the video! You always find the most amazing stuff/ideas!!! I have loved all the details about your wedding. I had some questions about your Gocco coasters and other projects. Do you think you could email me and help me out? Thanks
