Bishara & Rana HD Trailer

Last weekend we filmed Bishara & Rana's wedding reception at the historic Brown Palace Hotel in downtown Denver. They are such a sweet couple, and the reception was very fun and lively! We also had a great time working with Stephen Sanderson Photography. Here is a little 'teaser' trailer to get you excited for your wedding film!

Harry & Paula HD Wedding Highlights

Our second wedding of 2009 was a little closer to home. We filmed Harry & Paula's wedding at The Westin Tabor Center in downtown Denver. The venue was beautifully decorated, the vibrant purple flowers made the room and tables pop. Summer and I absolutely loved the cake Paula picked out, it was stunning! We couldn't get enough shots of it (as you guys will tell from your video :) The dance floor was huge, which made filming the first dance a dream and we were able to get a lot of cool shots (hopefully we weren't in your way too much Steve!) Speaking of Steve, it was great working with Steve Z Photography; I can't wait to see their photos! Harry, Paula and their families were a delight to work with, and it was also great seeing Julie, Billy and their families again (we shot Julie & Billy's wedding back in August 2008.) Congratulations Harry and Paula; we wish you both many happy years together!

The Sanctuary

We recently had the honor of becoming a preferred cinematographer at The Sanctuary in Sedalia, Colorado. If you have never been there for a wedding or otherwise, it is an amazing venue. The stone walls, large fireplaces and mountaintop location make this venue really stand out. Rising Moon has had the privilege of shooting at The Sanctuary several times, most recently this winter for Heather & Robert's November wedding and Rebecca & David's December wedding. The panaromic views and magnificent sunsets do not disappoint; I've honestly never seen a sunset short of amazing every time we've shot there (which the photos below attest to!) And the stunning waterfall makes an awesome backdrop for some gorgeous photos! Marianne and Kelsey are super nice and always pleasant to work with, so if you haven't yet booked your wedding venue, I would definitely recommend checking out The Sanctuary.

Check out the spectacular Sanctuary photos from some of our favorite photographers:
