He had eyes for absolutely no one else.
I posted on my Facebook yesterday that I may have just edited one of my most favorite films -- mostly because of the people in it. Amanda and Brian. They had no idea that I was filming pieces of their day to create a highlight film.
An elephant ring on her finger, three brilliant stars in the sky, and two hearts that were devoted to love each other like Christ loved the church. I can guarantee you have never heard an engagement story like Amanda and Brian's (this is your cue to read it ;).
And in that moment as they made their vows to each other, shared their first kiss (literally their first kiss), I had never witnessed such magnetic, thrilling, and inspiring love. I get to capture this? Yes, yes, yes. What a gift.
Amanda and Brian..
p.s. Guess who was my assisting videographer? My husband. And guess who was BLOWN AWAY? This girl right here. I watched what Jose captured and I just shook my head in awe that this was his first time. Oh, and don't you worry -- the second I said this to him, he let the whole world know (as in, that's all I heard about that afternoon). Totally deserving. He snuck this talent on me for sure, and I absolutely love it ;)
That was just lovely :)
