New Web Video

Well... It's official. I turned 36 years old. Thanks to my close friends and wife for surprising me with a birthday party. Definitely unexpected. Hard to believe time flies so fast. I have big plans for the next 5 years including spending more time with family and enjoying life to the fullest.

We just wrapped up a new video for the wedding section of our website that is kind of like a highlights reel of some of the notable things we have accomplished over the past few years. Special thanks to Brett Culp of the CVP Experience in Tampa, Florida for some of the cool footage. The image of me seen here is a screen capture from the footage he captured at an insanely over the top wedding at Walt Disney World this past year. His video work and editing style blows my mind every time I work with his team.

The last quote in the video.... "The perfect gift is the ability to see your life as amazing as it really is...." is such a perfect example of what we do here at Maring. Creating this video allowed us to get an outside look into just how much fun we have, and our photographs offer the same experience for others. We give people a glimpse into their own lives, and showcase everything that is right with it. When you live it every day, it is hard for all of us to step back and see it as a whole. I am excited to approach the next half of my life with that in mind...
