JAMES HODGINS PHOTOGRAPHY

I was updating my site and remembered this video.

Sudbury Trash The Dress Promo from James Hodgins on Vimeo.

I thought I would post some videos today.  The first 2 are from the Clem Chronicals titled “The End Of The Clem Chronicals”  For those of you who know Clem, you will understand.  We get photographers from all over North and South America that come to assist us on our weddings.  You have to be good, you have to be quick, and you have to be  funny.  See my post below with the beginning Clem saga.

Here is one of our very first welcome videos Rob and I did for NoBs. This was around 2002.

Well, Joce, myself and Clem from www.ckphotos.net just finished Emily & Wes’s wedding that took place at Wes’s parents place in Rutherglen Ontario.  This property was HUGE!!  I mean like 40 acres huge and it was a photographers paradise.  You know what the hardest decision I had to make today was?  Where was I going to shoot first.     We had it all, big tree’s, old fences, wooden bunkhouses, carpeted two holers, Country roads, bridges,  flowers, pathways, and so much more.  There was a bit of EVERYTHING!!  Sorry, no graffiti in this place.  We had a blast, as usual, just like all our other weddings.  Thanks again Emily, Wes, Kaeleb, Stephanie, Tanya, Alana, Kayla, Rami, Andrew, Jamie, Wayne, & Riley (And thanks Melissa for getting the boutonniere’s).  Thanks Mrs & Mr Edmonds for letting us use your wonderful property to create some outstanding images.

Note:  This isn’t the first time we have had Clem come and assist us.  We learn from our mistakes.  Sometimes, you just have to lay down the ground rules from the very beginning.

Every year my brother-in-law has a weekend “cottage” weekend at his cottage, which just so happens to be on the same lake as our cottage.  This has been an annual occurrence for many many years.  As I was digging for an archived file I came across this video we shot in the summer of 2006.  My partner in crime is the groom from my Cuba Destination Wedding.  I am posting this here for your entertainment. Enjoy.

Since I have been called the  ”fish whisperer”,  my friend Shawn Vonins of www.voninsphotography.com suggested I put my videos on my site to prove it.  So, for those of you who have followed the old hodgeblog, you do remember these don’t you?

Now you know just a “little” more about me.

“Our wedding would not have been what it was without you all. You know that you have chosen the perfect photographer for your special day when your GUESTS are commenting on how fabulous your photographer is…when they haven’t even seen the pictures yet!” 

Thanks again to  Brent Wolhberg of Artifact Media 
Also thanks to Clem Kutzli www.ckphotos.net for being my assistant that day.

We have started using video testimonials so that our future Bride & Grooms can hear first hand what it’s like to have James & Joce document their wedding.  A good friend of mine Brent Wolhberg of Artifact Media did  the interview and created this video testimonial for us.  We will have another video coming soon and more to come in the future. 

Thanks again Tina & Marcel for taking the time todo this for us.  It is greatly appreciated as we know how busy you two are with your own business www.marcelgladu.com.  Brent, thanks again also, as alsway you have exceeded my expectations and I look forward to the next project you do for Hodgins Photography.eo.

Shari and Louis picked up their package this week, watched their DVD story and are now going through the hundreds of images we captured at Laurentian Lodge in Elliot Lake.  The colors that Shari & Louis picked for their suites, flowers and decor were a perfect match for the fall colors, and Laurentian Lodge had some really cool spots to shoot in. Here is another Hodgins QuickClick of their wedding day.
