What can I say about Danielle and Emily that the don’t just emotionally pour out in this film? When I first got to talk with Danielle and Emily and they told me their story, I felt like I was sitting down with a couple of old friends and I fell in love with them!
Danielle and Emily were both in the military, met and fell in love in Japan and after sharing their loves and laughter they started to plan their wedding – and after the wedding was planned, THEN Danielle popped the question! I love these two so effing much!
I don’t think I’ve ever filmed a wedding with so many smiles from the beginning of the day! I mean, bringing donuts from our local favorite donut shop, Country Donuts here in Elgin, is pretty fun 🙂 The whole day was held at the Haight in Elgin and it was gorgeous!!! The rain didn’t stop them one bit, even through the outside first look and the surprise to Emily from Danielle! So many feels!

Shooting with a full video crew (3 shooters: Jaysin, Nick and Victor) we were able to really craft more of a creative day with super unique shots without stopping the couple from just enjoying their day – we are aiming to redraft our packages to include 3 shooters for the future because of how wonderful this day came out. We shot along side with photographer Nicole Vega from the Still Life Photography who was an absolute delight to work with! When the ceremony started it was such a joy to see For Love Films old friend, Anita Vaughan from Anita Weds as the officiant! When the party started up, we got to rock the night with the super talented and fun Gary Hipperson from Sounds Abound!
