Wedding Day River Surf

[Travis Cossel]

I thought I'd upload something kind of fun and different before I started prep'ing for tomorrow's wedding. The groom in this video is a big fan of kayaking, particularly "surfing" in his kayak, so it only made sense that he and the boys hit the water early in the morning on the wedding day. Enjoy!

Thanks. It was kind of fun to shoot. I ended up getting ticks on me, so that wasn't fun! I also nearly lost a tripod to the river when one of the guys tried to thow it out of a raft and onto the bank, so that was a bit scary too! The worst part is that I never even used the tripod, lol.

Yeah, this is just a special video I created and put on their DVD, and isn't part of the main wedding video. The groom REALLY wanted to do a shoot of them rafting, and I like to film new things, so it worked out. I only wish I could have gotten some different angles. I was basically stuck on this tiny island with only one place to shoot from.
