PenWeddings ~ An Intro

Photobucket

Hey, I'm Sarah Pendergraft and I own PenWeddings along with my awesome hubby Rick. We specialize in wedding films that combine a cinematic and documentary style. Our biggest goal with our business is to educate couples, not only about the importance of having a wedding video, but also about what a quality wedding video looks like.

Wedding videos have come a long way from the stale shots, silly special effects and cheesy graphics of years past. We truly craft a wedding FILM in which you are the star. Weddings contain so much raw emotion on their own, whether it's a hug, a laugh or a tear... it's stuff that you can't make up. It's so important to us to capture these little stolen moments so we can combine them with our cinematic shooting techniques to craft for you the perfect wedding film.

We've been asked several times why we chose to start doing wedding films. Well, Rick and I have both worked in media for years. I began working in television when I was 18-years-old, and Rick when he was 22. When we got married, like many couples, photography was at the top of our list and videography was one of those, "yeah we want it but it’s not a priority in the budget" items. We had a friend whom each of us had worked with at one point and we knew his production company did weddings. We hired him, not knowing what to expect. We were blown away by our own video, and suddenly it was just as important as photography, if not more... sorry Sarah ;-) We looked at each other and said, "We could do this! And we would love doing this!" And we really do!
