Iceland Elopement - Eva + Kyle

Iceland is not a place I ever thought I would go. Childhood dreams don’t usually include this island in the far North - known mostly for its buried, rotten and fermented shark ‘delicacy’ (which p.s. I did not try...) But over the years (thank you Instagram), people have been discovering the absolute magic that is Iceland. With a landscape that changes almost as quickly as the weather, this land blew my mind every 5 minutes. After spending a very short time there, it became abundantly clear to us why Eva and Kyle chose this place for their elopement.

Eva and Kyle met on a beer-drinking league in university. (That's a thing?!? Awesome!) And after years of graduate school and jobs that kept them miles apart, they moved to Vancouver together. When we met them, it only took us a few short moments to realize these two are beyond awesome. (Oh - also I think it's important to note that Kyle is a meteorologist and Eva hates jam (What?! Who hates jam?!!)).

Getting to capture their elopement + spend the better part of a week with them while travelling around the insanity that is Iceland is something that will stay at the top of our ‘good times’ list for years to come. A truly unforgettable experience. And did we mention our great friends Shari + Mike were there too? Like I said, this trip was the best!

So please, find the biggest screen you can, turn out the lights, and enjoy this film.

Loowa + Joey || Part 1

We don't often get the chance to make engagement films, so when we do it's quiiiite exciting. We get to hang with this awesome couple more then we usually would, get to know so much about them and see them interact with each other. We get to hear their story from BOTH points of view. All of this was definitely a big help for us as we created their engagement film but it was a HUGE help for us as we planned for their Same Day Edit. So much of storytelling is the work you put into pre-production and so we wanted to make sure we knew all about these two before the wedding day. But more on the SDE later... The day we spent filming with Loowa + Joey was the best. This couple is radical. Not just rad, but full on radical. They are hilarious. So easy going. So much fun. I spent most of the shoot laughing at them from afar while Shari + Mike fought with them to make a normal face for a photo. But for us this was gold! Its so rare that a couple can actually be themselves-completely themselves-while trying to act natural in front of 2 (or in this case 4) cameras.

Loowa and Joey- you nailed it. Such a fun shoot. Such a fun film. Check back soon for part two with Loowa + Joey's SDE!

Annie + Andy || A Proposal Story

First off... Welcome one and all to the brand new Hello Tomorrow Wedding Films blog! Nice eh? We dig it too. We've really wanted to refresh the blog for a while now and we're so happy to finally have it up! We want to give a huge shootout to the always amazing Heather Hastings for her incredible design (in case you didn't know, we created Heather and her husband, Jon's, wedding film a little while back. Check it out!). Also a huge thank you to the coding styles of Marc Kimmel!

In the past, we've always been pretty relaxed with our blog. We didn't post nearly enough (whoops!). This refresh is our first attempt at stepping it up a notch. From here on out we will begin posting more often and on a variety of topics.

PS: Let us know what you think of the new blog in the comments below!

OK and now! Annie + Andy...

We met Andy last year to talk about making a film for him. He had been planning on proposing to his girlfriend Annie and had a great idea of how to do it. I'd love to tell you more but... we'll let the film do the talking. We hope you enjoy it!

Tina + Kupa

Usually before every wedding, Mac and I meet with each couple and get to hear their story of how they met and fell in love. We get to hang out and spend time just getting to know them so we will be able to tell their story better when the wedding day comes. WE get to hear the story. But usually, you don’t. Well, for Tina and Kupa you DO! Before filming Tina + Kupa's (absolutely incredible, beautiful, heart felt) day, we created their engagement film. We spent some time down by Kits beach, asked them to each to tell their story and just watched them interact. And we are so happy with the finished film.

This couple's story is very unique. The way they met, the way they live their lives, their vision for the future – it’s not your average story. Anything I tell you about them before you watch the film will seem redundant afterwards. Let them tell you. I will say though that they are a beautiful couple with beautiful souls. We loved spending time with them and can’t wait to hang out with them again.

Be sure to check back soon for their wedding highlights film!
