Happy New Year!!!

Wow, I cannot believe its been a year since I started this blog and this stuff is harder than I thought. With all of the things happening in ones life you can easily forget about updating your blog. My new year's resolution will definitly be to keep you more in tune with Bluvision Media. As Oprah once said "Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right."

As I look back on this year it has been one that I will never forget because of the many changes that occurred in my personal life as well as professionally. Not only did I celebrate my 1yr wedding anniversary but we welcomed our first child into this world 11 days later. Being a mom brings me so much joy. Because of my pregnancy that put a little damper on the prime wedding season but I'M BAAAACK. The look of the website and blog have changed due to the evolution of Bluvision and we are one step closer to introducing a new division (more details to come soon).

So as we look forward to 2010, I am very excited about the changes coming to Bluvision Media and our offerings. I am also looking forward to connecting new people in Kansas City and worldwide. We are all a work in progress, so take a moment today to reflect on what's important in your life as you look to where you want to be.

HD Coming in 2010

As you look forward to the new year, Bluvision Media is looking forward to some changes. In 2010 we will introduce high definition video to our services. You will be able to see your wedding or special event crystal clear on your HD televisions or monitors. We will be posting HD videos starting in January.

Happy Anniversary Polly & Shelby

Earlier this month friends of my husband and I celebrated their one year anniversary. I had the opportunity to be the videographer at their wedding and love was definitely in the air in Winfield, KS. I'm quite sure that after a year they would love to look back at the highlights from that day so I put this short clip together for them.



Happy Anniversary Polly & Shelby Miller.

Affiliates Pittsburg Reunion

During the weekend of July 17th-19th I had a chance to capture the Affiliates Pittsburg all class reunion here in Kansas City. The affiliates consists of African-American graduates of Pittsburg State University from all classes 1930-2009. The festivities for the weekend included a bus trip to PSU, an Apollo at the Gem" talent show, a Gala that took place at the Hyatt as well as church service on that Sunday at Stranger's Rest Baptist Church. I look forward to posting a short highlight video soon.

JoAnna and Hollis - Wedding

The couple did not have a long time to plan the wedding, but you would not have been able to tell. JoAnna was a beautiful bride and Hollis was filled with emotion from the day. Their wedding coordinator was Mary of Mardee's Design and Consulting.


Here are a few photos from their big day.

Jo Anna and Hollis - Engagement

I had the opportunity to photograph Jo Anna and Hollis over Memorial Day Weekend. They will actually be getting married on June 6th and I will have the pleasure to capture the memories of that day as well. So be sure to check back soon to see some photos from their wedding.



After a few shots, they began to have a little fun :)






Hollis was cool during the entire shoot...very easy going.


Jo Anna is going to be a beautiful bride.

One couple's regret from their wedding.

Today I found a video on YouTube that I thought would be interesting to share with couples considering hiring a professional videographer. There are many reason that I could tell you, but hearing it from a couple that did not have a videographer speaks for itself.

Salon Ambiance - Look Good....Feel Better

Salon Ambiance of Lee’s Summit, teamed with the American Cancer Society and charitable organization Look Good...Feel Better to give surprise makeovers to courageous cancer survivors on Thursday March 26, 2009. This was also a Grand Re-Opening extravaganza for Salon Ambiance.

The event featured a charitable silent auction, several vendors and tours of the Salon Ambiance, Ambiance Boutique and their event space The Loft; Ernest and Roshanna Campbell are the owners. Thanks goes to the event coordinator Anna McNair of AM Marketing Company for allowing me to be apart of this memorable event.

Mid-Town Kiwanis Founder's Day

Mid-Town Kiwanis celebrated Founder's Day with a banquet at St.Paul School of Theology in Kansas City on March 6, 2009. This event also honored some of its original charter members as well as awards to other members for their contributions to the organization.

Happy New Year...its 2009!

Welcome to BluVision Media's Blog. Since this is a new year we're ready to enter into the wonderful world of blogging. This is really new to me but thought it would be a great place for you to keep up with what BluVision Media is up to.

I think the best way to start off 2009 is by taking a look back at some of the highlights of 2008.

Last year was the start up year for BluVision Media. Although I've been shooting weddings for years it was the first year I stepped out on my own. I didn't do too much early in the year because I was busy planning my own wedding. On August 30th I took that walk down the aisle and married my husband Mario. Below are a few photos I wanted to share with you.














Then I had the opportunity to photograph Kori and Robert's wedding at the end of September. They were a great couple and I really enjoyed being spending the day with them and capturing all the fun.



































In October the highlight of the month was video taping Christy and Charlie's wedding. Their wedding was beautiful and very touching. While shooting I was really drawn into everything the minister was saying...a very nice service. Their daughter was adorable and always had a smile on her face. The best part of the night occurred when Charlie surprised Christy with a Brett Michaels performance. Everyone at the reception really enjoyed the reception...I couldn't stop laughing.



Take a look at their highlight reel.

The last wedding of the year was Valorie and Robert and it took place mid-November. When I first met the couple I knew their wedding would be very special. It was a very enjoyable evening and their guest stayed on the dance floor all night.























I hope you enjoyed taking a look back at 2008 as much as I'm looking forward to 2009.
