About
Weddings are unrepeatable and I want you to be able to relive the emotions, words, music, people, and moments for years and generations to come. I am passionate about my work, and love meeting new people and having the opportunity to be a part of such a landmark occasion.

My goal is to be accommodating and attentive while capturing the irreplaceable moments of your wedding celebration. Using traditional photojournalism, documentary-style, and cinematic editing, I will work with you to custom design a look that suits your occasion and personality.

I also specialize in Elopement Photo and Video Packages. Email me for details!

The most meaningful part of this business for me is to provide a product that you will cherish. I want to be there for the moments that bring laughter and tears, so you and your family may remember your special day with fondness each time the sights and sounds are replayed.

“Relive the moment share your story.”

I have been actively creating professional broadcast video productions since 1996 and my work has appeared on CNN Headline News, PBS, NBC, CBS, NESN, and on the RSN National Network.

I have specialized primarily in weddings since August 5, 2000, when I did my first official paid booking!

In addition to my business, I work both behind and in front of the camera and can be seen on North Conway’s RSN TV 16 hosting “RSN Live".  I also specialize in Real Estate/Architectural Photography and do a wide array of commercial freelance work both video and photo. While you surf my site, you will get to see my most recent projects and my favorite vendors.

Meg is terrific to work with! Her talent is incredible and she provides extremely professional services. She replies to emails and phone calls quickly and is flexible with the custom needs of each bride and groom. She just finished editing by sister's wedding ceremony video. I have watched it almost a dozen times and it has made me teary eyed each time! She captured the day perfectly and we will be able to treasure it now for a lifetime!
Yay Meg! Meg is the absolute best videographer (and company) I have ever worked with. Her associate Chris was completely non-obtrusive and nimble. During the wedding and reception I was wondering if he was getting good stuff, because we weren't tripping over each other. When I saw the final edited video, I was completely blown away. It was so professionally edited and fluid. It looked like a high end Madison Avenue campaign.The music and images were so woven together perfectly and the editing was very tight. No extraneous footage. I give Meg my absolute highest recommendation for a videographer!

Yes BUT not obtrusive, we use a 1 inch by 1 inch on camera light, we do not set up stage lighting or create an environment where your guests will feel uncomfortable. Our goal is to be as unobtrusive as possible while capturing the irreplaceable moments of your wedding celebration.
 
How many videographers do you work with?
Always myself, my assistant, and when necessary associates.
 
Does the client get to meet the videographers before the event?
I try to meet each client if logistically possible at least once before the wedding.
 
Do you guarantee your presence at the actual event?
Yes, unless someone agrees to a date I am already booked knowing (and signing off) that they are hiring my associates.
 
Do you book yourself for more than one event in a day? Weekend?
I only double book when the 2nd couple wants to, if not I just do one wedding a day, but possibly multiple weddings a weekend (one on Sat, one on Sunday)
 
Do you have a replacement videographer in case you become unavailable on the event day?
Yes, I have an extensive local network of other videographers and we always are open to helping each other out in those situations - and of course I will only do that if approved by client. If not a refund will be issued.
 
What kind of equipment do you typically bring with you on the day-of?
Cameras, Tripods, batteries, tape stock, wireless micrphones, on camera light, back up gear, umbrella, gloves, and any other seasonal gear needed.
 
Do you bring backup equipment to the event in case of malfunction?
Yes
 
What is your policy on taking breaks? If you require a meal break, do you require that the client provide your meal?
None really, just to go to the bathroom and maybe sneak a few bites of dinner if a meal is provided.
 
Do you charge overtime?
Yes as outlined with each client if they do NOT book the full day package.
 
Do you give access to your raw footage?
For a fee.
 
Do you reserve the right to use the video in the future for promotions, contents, etc.?
Yes unless the couple is adamant that I do not post clips on my site for promotion of my work.
 
Is the client involved in the editing process? If so, how much input does the client have in editing?
This is outlined in my contract in further detail, but each couple receives a proof DVD and we can make basic changes from there, change out songs, look for additional footage, take out footage etc... then once the proof dvd is approved, you will receive the final DVD's.
 
How long does it take for the client to get the final video?
Since my busy season is now about 10 months of the year, I always outline a 15-20 week turn around in my contract but will do my best to get it done faster. I do not want to compromise the quality of the video due to time constraints. I will do a "rush job" for circumstances such as an ailing relative who can't make it to the wedding etc....
