Sara & Lawrence – Wedding Highlights
Sea Island, Georgia
Spectacular is an understatement for this wedding. Saying the Sea Island Resort is gorgeous doesn’t do it justice. And I’d say Sara, Lawrence and their beautiful families inspired us to film some amazing moments, and we had an absolute blast all week.
As a destination wedding for Sara & Lawrence, and everyone else from...

You might remember Kim & Andrew from their awesome Love Story Video we filmed back in the summer. Check it out to get to know them and their story before you watch their wedding. It makes it so much more sweeter. They came down from New York/New Jersey with all of their...
Thankful…
This is what I am so very thankful for this year and every year. But this year is different. Our lives have changed so much with the addition of our Penelope. She brings so much joy. She has given us a new perspective on what love is. I have never experienced a love quite like...

She secretly recorded a...
Why Have a Video When You Can Have a Film?
We are excited to announce and launch our new branding! We are still Life Stage, we just felt we wanted to get away from the word “video” so we could properly advertise what it is we provide. Yes, we provide “wedding videos”. But we’d like to argue they are a little bit different than a...

Figure Eight Island, NC
Gail has some style that’s for sure! Arguably one of the best designed and uniquely crafted weddings we have filmed. We have shot on Figure Eight many times, but never with a beautiful tent right on the waterway, and a massive, building sized tent on the Yacht Club’s grounds. It was stunning....
