Hey all,

Here's a photo shoot with a great couple. You get a good sense of what Old Montreal is like in the summer. Very European.

The groom says something about the bride's weight, and it quickly backfires on him. I swear they asked me to leave it in:

Samar and Gilbert Photo Shoot on Vimeo

It might look like it starts and ends in the middle of nowhere, but it's because it's lifted from the main video where it flows uninterrupted.

Anyone else notice that the Vimeo compression increases video contrast? It's way darker than what I uploaded.

100% hand held with a Z1 in about 40 minutes. Lots of running. Thanks for any comments.

Vito...

I love the energy... Your style and camera movements remind me a lot of italian TV :-)
Montreal looks like a beautiful city...

Hey Steve,

I'll have to take your word for it, I've never watched Italian TV.

I think this might be the first time I got a groom dropping a bride on camera. I've had a few have trouble picking them up, but this was special. They're good sports, though, which is why they wanted to have it in the video.

Montreal is a beautiful city, indeed. Well worth the visit. We often shoot in Old Montreal. Lots of great backgrounds, lively atmosphere, nice area to walk around in. Sometimes it's wedding central, however, which can be weird. Sometimes I want to grab three or four brides together to do something, but I think most wouldn't want to dilute the beam of attention.

Thanks for watching, and the feedback. Anyone else want to beat me up?
