The Artistic Wedding features three talented event filmmakers: Joe Simon,
(Joe Simon Wedding Films), John Goolsby,
(Godfather Films), and Kristen*,
(Bliss Video), with host Steve Weiss.
The filmmakers discuss the definition of wedding filmmaking and the artistic expression of producing avant-garde wedding films. Along with the pressures of one-take, 12-hour shoots, they discuss the true realities of capturing the moments of that perfect day
Reflecting on his own experience as a wedding videographer in the early 80s, Steve Weiss opens up the round table discussion by asking the cast of filmmakers, “What do we call this? Wedding Videography or Wedding Filmmaking?”
