Animated Wedding Shoes

I couldn't help myself. I haven't done any stop motion in a while and Ciara's awesome custom shoes deserves some unique and cool footage. I still have to edit her summary together but I thought I'd give everyone a sneak peak at what's to come. I had fun at this wedding and I can't wait to show what I have in store!

Julie and Joe's Instant Gratification Short!

Here it is! Julie and Joe's short film that was shown at the Crest Theatre this past weekend. I'm only showing the the second part of the film since I blogged the first part a few months ago. To see the entire film, you can view it here. Special thanks to the Artistic Imagery film crew (Amber, Travis, Sharon, Fay) and Gary (Jerry!!) from the Crest Theatre for making the same day edit possible! Yes Julie, you only hired one cinematographer for your wedding day but since you also booked us for a same day edit, I brought some extra guns for the show cuz that's just how we roll!

Event Painting by Alan Silva

Live Event Painting is a truly unique way to capture your special day on canvas. Your guests will be fascinated by how the painting quickly evolves into the finished artwork. Each painting takes approximately 3-5 hours to complete and it will be ready for you to take home at the end of the event. Alan is also available to capture any moment on canvas even after your special event has passed. Just send us a photograph of the moment you want immortalized as a painting and we’ll take care of the rest. Below is the latest event painting I just completed... let me know what you think!

Congratulations Luis and Corin!

Alan here. Team Artistic Imagery recently shot Luis and Corin's wonderful, jam packed wedding this past weekend at Saint Francis Catholic Church and Arden Hills Resort and Spa. Luis owns a sound company along with his best man and brother, Ramon so you know that the music is gonna be out of this world! Well, let's just say the live bands they hired, ranging from a mariachi band, to a local cover band that entertained the guests during the reception did not disappoint! I will especially enjoy editing their video incorporating the live music during the entire event. Look out for a summary of their awesome day in the next couple of weeks. In the meantime, enjoy the awesome imagery from Greg, Amber, and our super duper intern, Olivia!

We're Published!

Alan here, I was browsing through the internet to see where Artistic Imagery has made their mark locally and found that the articles that were recently published in Our Wedding Magazine can now be viewed online! We have three articles in there. Woohoo!

Stephanie and Chris' Same Day Video Edit

This past weekend, Amber, Sarah (Sarah Dawson Photography), Greg (Greg Allen Photographers) and I drove down to Los Angeles to capture Stephanie and Chris' wedding at the Biltmore Hotel. Amber, Sarah and Greg were all photographers and I was the only one doing the videography for that day. One of my guys was unable to come due to some circumstances beyond his control but I was glad that I was able to make it work. My little brother, Carlo also came to the rescue at the ceremony site. Thanks for the chips and water too! Greg was gracious enough to assist me in capturing some video coverage during the reception when I was frantically editing the footage captured earlier. I was about half an hour late on my delivery but judging from the reaction of the guests, all my sweat and running around the hotel was worth it! Without further ado, here's the very first, instant gratification video of the year.... Enjoy!

Lysette Davis Photo Session

This afternoon, Amber, Olivia (our new and awesome intern) and I shot Lysette's Photo Session in Old Town Sacramento. We had such a great time that we didn't realize we were shooting for much longer than we should have. Hey, if you love what you do... besides, Lysette was all smiles on this shoot! I tried to make her show me an angry face, but it ended up being a cute grrr followed by a big laugh from everyone. There's just not one single ounce of angry girl in her! Here are the faves! (Olivia, yes, your first photo shoot with us and one of your photos made it on the blog, yay!)
