Kolby + Rob's Winter Wedding At Eagle Ranch Golf Resort Invermere
Kolby + Rob's Wedding Highlight Reel
We had the great pleasure of capturing Rob and Kolby's wedding in Invermere, B.C at Eagle Ranch Golf Resort this past February! It was our first time in Invermere shooting a wedding!
Kolby and Rob love winter and winter sports. They wanted their guests to enjoy the beautiful setting! The original plan was a winter wedding, with a dash of falling snow. As you might know, not everything goes as planned. We ended up with warm weather and no snow!! The flip side was, the lack of wind and cold allowed for some absolutely stunning and breath taking shots not typical to winter shoots. You'll need to watch the video to see what we're saying. These are things we can't order from mother earth- they just happen!
From the stunning location, beautiful couple, charming decor details, beautiful cake made by the brides friend, energetic dance floor and Kolby's two incredible gowns. This wedding will go down in history for us! Thank you for sharing the day with us!
Big thank you to Cole of Cole Hofstra Photography, photographer extraordinary, for connecting us with this couple and sharing the day with us! You'll have to see the sweet light painting shots he captured of Kolby and Rob!
Enjoy the film & thanks for stopping by!

A Parfait Experience
It's been a long time since we've blogged anything that wasn't a wedding. Today we wanted to take a moment to share with you what the Parfait Productions experience is all about and what our team stands for. What to expect on the wedding day and how we roll! We understand the wedding cinematography world can be a funny place, with the uncle bob stereotypes all the way to the hoodie wearing filmies.
A little about us:

- Unobstructive: aka ninja style.
As a married couple, we take wedding pretty seriously. We don't want to take away from your day and over haul the wedding. For us it's about capturing authentic moments, without taking away from the wedding. We work around your photographer to capture your day, rather than compete with this other critical vendor involve in capturing your wedding. For us, great wedding photography is amazing and we understand you have made a big investment in this area as well. We're going the distance for you all day. Like Lanny & Erika from TwoMann would say "All in balls out". If that means filming with smaller cameras, filming in water, climbing mountains or filming with a monopods to accommodate to the space, count us in!
- Authentic
In a Parfait Productions films, we capturing authentic raw moments. We brought this point above, but we would like to elaborate a little more. Justin and myself would never have you do a once in a lifetime moment, such as a first look more than once. You might think we're crazy to say this. But believe us and trust us, many many films out there are filled with moments the videographers have manufactured and contrived. Don't you think that's a little crazy? I would say... ahem fake? For us its about getting the shot, when it happen naturally, in the moment. Basically we're like ninjas, but we don't show up to your wedding in spandex.
-Timely
We often tell our clients, we're always a step ahead of then. We can anticipate your next move. We know where to be, at the right times. We know when its time to depart from one location and start sound check without skipping a beat. After filming more weddings in 2014, than any other wedding cinematography team in Alberta. Let's just say, we got this. We know where the action is, and more importantly, we're present in the moment, just as you are on your wedding day. We're taking it all in, but from behind the lens.
-Prepared
As mentioned above, we're prepared and well equipment to deal with a multitude of scenarios, such as low light and small spaces. We've invested in the best, for you. You deserve the best equipment available for live event shooters and the newest technologies.
-Community
Our community of wedding professional is like family to us. Wether its your planner, DJ, venue or musicians. Introductions on the day of are great, but wouldn't it be great if we knew them before hand? We always make an effort to introduce ourselves to all vendors we will be working with, prior to the wedding day. Either we've worked together or coffee date is in order to get to know each other. It's important to us. Knowing the vendors we will be working closely before the wedding day is priceless. This only comes with experience ladies and gents. Building relationships with wedding vendors we work with or would like to work with, is important. Knowing their processes and personalities is crucial to working as a well oiled machine all day. All your vendors should be working as a unit on your wedding day! Yay! Go team!
-Man + Woman
Having a male and female perspective on things is priceless, and is our case, this means shots from your wedding from different perspectives and even heights. You just can't get that from a bunch of dude cinematographers. Ladies, I get it, I've gone through this. During the shooting and editing process, it about the shots were the bride is beaning and in the moment! We want to display your true personality and confidence!! I film with the ladies and Justin films with the guys in the morning, naturally. This just makes the whole process more comfortable! Also, when I see a pair of shoes, well I just know you've taken the time to select these beauties and I'll be sure to capture them too ;)
-Passion
Enough said. We love what we do and working together to create wedding films.
Thanks for stopping by! We look forward to sharing some awesome winter weddings with you all in the coming weeks!

Paula + Joe | Fairmont Banff Springs Wedding | Highlight Reel | Banff Wedding Videographers
A Summer Fairmont Banff Springs Wedding
Where do we begin? We won't ever forget Skyping with these legends for the first time. Paula and Joe described their wedding style, their connection to Calgary, how they met, the couple's favourite french restaurant in Philadelphia and their love of the LOVE monument by fame sculpture Robert Indiana in the John F. Kennedy Plaza. All these elements were integral in the decor and feel of their wedding day at the Fairmont Banff Springs in Banff, Alberta this past July.
We couldn't have been more honoured to capture this wedding. From the fabulous love story, to the talented vendors, this day was incredible! The immense love amongst the families, the strong bonds between all the bridal party and the amazing dance moves- the day was indeed memorable! There were many many unforgettable moves on the dance floor...and a choreographed dance spanning all the bridal party and families! We have to thank DJ Fayyaz for keeping the dance floor going late into the night! Notice a change in Paula's dress in the film! She wanted to switch things up late in the evening on the dance floor and reveal a shortened gown!
Thank you to Julianne Young Weddings for keeping the day on track and making sure Paula and Joe had their vision come to life!
Enjoy the Highlight Reel of Paula & Joe's wedding day! Paula and Joe also decided to go with our new Cinematic Film option, which is a 25 minute feature film covering their entire wedding day, from morning to night! There will be all new footage and moments for this full edit! Thank you again Paula and Joe, you were such a genuine and fun loving couple- we could do it all over again!
Also, special thanks to Bloom Invites for the custom title for the Highlight Reel film!
Big hug!
Ix & Justin

A Wedding Pavilion Wedding
We met Danielle and Mike for coffee last summer and instantly knew their wedding day would be beautiful, sentimental and a family affair. We love seeing how the two families can come together at the wedding.
What stood out the most for us were Danielle and Mike's vows. Here are the highlights of their wedding day and the heart felt vows. Did we mentioned their dog was at the ceremony? You won't want to miss the pup's appearance in the film!
