A whole new life.

In today's fast pace society where we hardly have time to stop and thing about anything, I sit back and look at the amazing things around me. I look at my family, I look at my business, I look at everything around and it is hard not to be thankful of it all. It makes me think about when I got married. Going to weddings on a regular basis as a way of life (as a wedding film maker) I sometimes find even I take the moment for granted. The day Jessica and I got married was the single most important day that I remember. Much more powerful than graduation, school, confirmation, or any other moment in my life. I think about what a whole new world I live in now, because of Jessica. It makes me think about the beginning  of a new life that I get to witness and capture on camera. That moment when the Pastor or Priest says " I now pronounce you man and wife". That eternal bond. That love. That excitment. Sometimes because I am so caught up in the midst of filming it, I forget how amazing it is to be able to preserve that precious moment it time that will never happen again. I must admit: every time I sit down to edit a new film, I have a 5-10 minute time where I am in absolute awe of how powerful that moment is. EVERY TIME. I insist that I edit all of our work (at least at this point) because of the power and beauty of of that experience.

It all comes back to marriage. We preserve the most pure relationship, the most powerfull bond known to human kind. Marriage is the ultimate committment. Marriage is the ultimate sacrifice. Marriage is the ultimate gift of life. If you are married and reading this, take the time to thank your husband or wife today. Thank them for loving you.
