What have I been up to?

First let me apologize for the lack of posting in the past month or so, but with the wedding season in full blown, shooting almost every weekend, plus having some exciting personal news I have been let's say more than busy. But with that said I wanted to share with you an excited news as CINEMATT has become a member of Blu Bungalow in San Francisco. But what is Blu Bungalow, you might ask. Well, it's a collective of artists coming together to create the first ever event planning wedding studio of like minded vendors in San Francisco.
Hazel Antonio Bourget is the founder and the brain behind this brilliant idea, and if you are still not sure you understand what I'm talking about I invite you to watch the following video that my friend and fellow cinematographer Anton Lorimer of Lorimerworks put together for Blu Bungalow.
As a new member I'm really excited to the possibilities that it offers and I look forward to meeting many of you there. Just call me and come say hi!
Thank you and I promise I will post more in the next few weeks.



Blu Bungalow is located at 2068 Union street San Francisco Ca 94123 and is open Tuesday to Sunday

Garden Room Hotel - Oakland - Christina and Winfield

I always love cultural weddings. They are always rich in colors, tradition and fun. Christina and Winfield's was exactly that.

When they contacted me for their wedding I was ecstatic. I had shot Winfield sister's wedding the year before, so I knew it would be an occasion to meet their family again. It's always nice when family members refer me, and at the same time, it is a challenge because you want to make sure to deliver them with something unique and representing their personality well. And it wasn't to difficult to do in their instance.

From photo session at target to dancing on the bay in Emeryville, and including some funny vows, this film is a sure fire cracker, where both of Christina and Winfield fun personality shines.

Enjoy and merci for watching.

Cinematt at the San Francisco Ritz Carlton Bridal Fair

Last Sunday I had the privilege to represent videographers at the San Francisco Ritz Carlton Bridal Fair. This lavish event put together by modern bridal was an occasion for me to show case some of my recent work to future brides and grooms. Although I don't do many bridal fairs, in fact I don't do any, the one at the Ritz is always fun, and has been good to me in the past years.
Here is a picture of my booth:



As you can tell I'm very comfortable in front of the camera NOT, and that is why I prefer being behind the camera.

It was great to meet so many brides whose weddings is fast approaching. Thank you to them for coming by the booth and telling me about their wedding.



Thank you to Elley photography for documenting the day
