mara loves matthew | super 8mm film | engagement films
engagement at the ranch | joy thigpen environments

I love when a couple truly showcases their love for one another, as you will see in this film Mara and Matthew were not afraid to show it, and allow Jose Villa and I to capture it. Mara and Matthew have such a presence on this film you can really FEEL the emotion, intimacy, and commitment in their relationship. Joy Thigpen styled this session, simple enough to fit their personalities and their environment at the the ranch; check out more of Joy’s genius styled environments on her blog. Emily Newman of Once Wed came along and helped with everything, thank you Emily! I want to thank Mar from TEAM hair and makeup, its always such a pleasure having your talent! This film and photos are also featured on Once Wed, to view the complete feature Part 1 and Part 2. Thank you M & M for being so open to filming you, you two are an inspiration for all relationships!
