JD and Kiki were married at Old St. Joseph’s Mission Church in Cordova, Maryland. Their reception was at the home of JD’s parents in St. Michaels, Maryland. Most of Kiki’s family is still in Cuba, and were unable to attend the wedding. We are so happy they chose us to record the day for them.

Caterer: Garden and Garnish

Baker: Julie Bakes

DJ.: Mark Savage

Flowers: Petals

Photography: Andrew Nock Photography

To see video excerpts from the wedding ceremony, please go to my Facebook page. Congratulations to Kiki and JD. Besides being very photogenic (videogenic?), they were a joy to work with. The video production will be wonderful.

We had the pleasure of videotaping the dress rehearsal last night of “I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change” at the Riverfront Theatre in Milford, Delaware. The four cast members from the Second Street Players perform all the roles. Very nice job!

Crazy July/Eastern Shore Videographer

phyllism — Mon, 01 Aug 2011 21:18:39 +0000

Starting July 1, when we went to the Castleton Festival in Virginia and videotaped La Boheme for Maestro Lorin Maazel, my mantra has been, “Just get through July, just get through July…” We are officially done with July, so I decided it was definitely time to get a blog entry done.

Although I have posted some quick entries to my Facebook page, I have terribly neglected my blog. After three operas and three weddings in July, I am ready for a break. However, all of this beautiful material must be edited, so our work is not done yet. But it is all post-production, at least until we hit September. Even though we have an editing studio set up at our place near Bethany Beach, it is hard to work when everyone else is playing. (Not that Case and his Marsh Video don’t have a boatload of work to finish–between his corporate clients and film transfers, he has much to do.)

Anyway, we ended the month with a bang. John and Michelle’s wedding at Grace United Methodist Church and their reception at the Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay in Cambridge, Maryland, were great. They had their rehearsal dinner at Mitchum’s Steakhouse in Trappe. We videotaped the rehearsal dinner, and projected their “slideshow” on a big screen for everyone to enjoy.

Here are some of the other professionals who provided first-class service for Michelle and John’s beautiful day:

Congratulations to Michelle and John. A beautiful start to a beautiful life. Here are a few more stills from the video on the day of the wedding (To see more images and short video clips, go to our Facebook page.):

Congratulations Bryan and Sarah!/Eastern Shore Videographer

phyllism — Wed, 01 Jun 2011 21:09:26 +0000

Our dear friends Pam and Irwin finally married off their oldest son Bryan. Case and I had the great pleasure of actually being guests at the wedding reception this past Saturday (we even got to sit at the parents' table). The party was held at Boswell Hall in Bowie Maryland. (Bryan and Sarah had gotten married the day before at the courthouse in Upper Marlboro.)

Bryan works for the Baltimore Orioles as the "In-Game Entertainment Manager"-he's the guy who does the special videos for the jumbotron, among other videography. Sarah teaches in Montgomery County. Good food, drink, and music=good times for all, especially for Case and me. What a nice break for us during this crazy time of the year.

We couldn't be happier for them. All our best wishes for a long, happy life together.

Melissa & Brent/Easton Maryland Videographer

phyllism — Sun, 22 May 2011 20:35:24 +0000

What can you say about the most perfect weather of the year so far? You can say Melissa and Brent’s prayers for a perfect day were answered. Yesterday was pretty much perfect all around.

The bride and her wedding party got ready for the wedding at her godmother’s gorgeous house. The grounds were amazing. Their ceremony was at Camp Mardela in Denton, Maryland–a very special place for both of them–not only had they gone to camp there, but eventually became counselors and fell in love. Before they recessed down the aisle, they rang the camp bell. Case says he thinks he has some of the best video he has ever shot. I did pretty well myself.

The reception was at the Elks Lodge in Easton. Chris Startt did his usual great job as DJ. Amy from Monteray Farms did the flowers. Bay Country Bakers made the beautiful cake. And last, but not least, Andy and Kim Nock did the photographs. (As always, we had a fun time with them and I know they got some great photos. I can’t wait to see them).

TV, That’s for Me/Eastern Shore Videographer

phyllism — Thu, 19 May 2011 12:20:50 +0000

Not quite as hectic as our annual "Marsh Madness" in February and March, May and June madness comes close. This is the time of year for graduations, dance recitals, and of course, weddings (Note to Melissa-good weather is forecast for your outdoor wedding on Saturday.) Last Sunday, Marsh Video Productions had the pleasure of taping again the Triple Threat Theater Studio's annual show at the Todd Performing Arts Center at Chesapeake College. It has been amazing watching these talented kids grow up over the years.

This year's theme was "TV, That's for Me"-a very clever show. The many acts included Lucy "spooning" her way to health with Vitameatavegamin, commercials from Capital One, Snuggies, and Colgate toothpaste, as well as The Flintstones. Triple Threat means singing, dancing, and acting, and all three were well-represented on Sunday. Here are a few video stills from the show:
