The Mt. SAC softball team – or – MTSWAG as they say this year had a uniquely close team this year. The girls really felt like they were a family, overcame a lot of adversity, and shared a lot together. After another great regular season, they went on to win their Regional. However, they did not prevail at Super Regionals and felt their season get cut short. This is the first year Mt. SAC will not be competing in the State Tournament in 10 years. MT. SAC has previously won the State title in 2003, 2005, 2007 and 2009. Although things didn’t quite fall their way this year, this group of girls knows that in athletics, its not the wins you take away in life — its the relationships. I’m sure these girls, coaches, and everyone that was a part of the 2012 season will remain close at heart after sharing one special, common bond — Mt. SAC pride. Enjoy their dramatic team highlight film that is based on their 2o12 Mission Statement. This is one softball film you don’t want to miss!
So I went out to dinner with Ron & Rozita a couple weeks ago and Ron asked about the owls. “Why owls?” he asked. I gave him our tagline, “wedding films about hoo you are.” He pauses. Rozita looks as if to say, “Don’t get started on her owls.” I tell Ron I’m not offended and would love to hear his thoughts on our new branding. I am always curious to see what people’s reactions are. So Ron proceeds to tell that he puts owls in the same category as clowns and mimes. Category: Things that spook him. LOL. Understandable. We had a pretty good laugh. So fast forward to their wedding day, Rozita tells me she can’t wait for him to open one of his gifts that she got him. We film Ron opening his gift and what is waiting inside that pretty little Neiman Marcus black box? Owl cufflinks! Ron laughed pretty hard — and so did we. A photographer then told me, “Well, when couples start buying gifts because of your company branding, good or bad, you know your branding made an impact.” A great point. So I guess we’ll continue hoo’ing along then! Have a hootsome day.
Love,
the owl lady.
Sometimes you can just FEEL the love between a couple. Charlaine & Zaw showed nothing short of that. No one in their presence on Saturday could deny that two individuals are so in love, so compassionate, and so happy to be starting a new chapter in their lives together. Friends and family gathered at the beautiful Pelican Hill Resort in Newport Beach for to witness their marriage ceremony and a wonderful Bermuse ceremony that followed. Every detail looked gorgeous and it was an amazing day thanks to the amazing coordinators from Details Details. We also worked next to Samuel Lippke all day, who’s an awesome and talented photographer. Enjoy Charlaine & Zaw’s Trailer – you can feel the passion in every minute of this film. Oh, and don’t miss the flying doves!
Anisha & Tom had a colorful set up for their long and beautiful day. After bridal preps, we headed to Pasadena City Hall for their first look and on to St. John’s Coptic Church for their ceremony. After the two tied the knot in front of many family and friends, we headed to Tom’s house for a few more traditions, where Tom’s dad was able to take part in the day. At last, we headed to the reception at the Pasadena Hilton and got the party started! It was an evening filled with amazing performances and great speeches that ended the night beautifully. We hope you enjoy this Teaser Trailer for Anisha & Tom!
It’s that time of year again! That time to say, wow, softball season is nearing the end of season….how long until playoffs are here?? As a MTSAC Alum, I know I’ll be attending those playoffs games – we better be hosting might I add! Every year we put together a Media Guide for the program and every year it feels fun and a little different than the last. Above is what we came up with this year for the covers. You can also click here to view the entire PDF, which is the whole media guide — all 56 pages of it! It might take a minute to download, but check it out: http://averyjproductions.com/blog/12/april/mtsac-mediaguide-2012.pdf
Congrats to Art J. Herrera for publishing his first book! Check out that beautiful cover…our first book cover design. And you can buy the book for your kindle on Amazon here.
It’s tough to keep up with Natasha. She’s that all around amazing athlete, great role model, and good person. But to add on top of that, she spends half the year in Japan playing Professional Softball and when she returns her attention gets split between her Natasha Watley Foundation, Team Watley, Northridge Softball, and of course her family. Like I said, she’s tough to keep up with. So lucky for us, she’s keeping us all in the loop with her new website. You can check it out to see more about all the things she’s involved with, her calendar, her photos, videos, tweets, and much more. And yeah, her website was designed by Your Truly.

Here was a fun website to put together for a fellow filmmaking team, Higher Definition Media. I just love the way we put together the film portfolio. They have some amazing films in their portfolio…so you’d better go check out their website to enjoy a few of their films! http://hdmweb.com/new
Grab your wine glass and enjoy this majestic Hawaiian wedding under the tree at the beautiful Gainey Vineyards in Santa Barbara! The day began under the tree — the tree of life — where Melissa and Kevin gave their hearts, souls, and sentimental vows to each other in front of family, friends, and gorgeous weather. We then had the opportunity to catch up with the newlyweds after their honeymoon to film a better-late-than-never Love Story. As it turns out, their story is just as beautiful as their Hawaiian wedding was. These two could not adore each other more. However, at first sight, this was not the case. Kevin wanted to date Melissa and she responded, “Oh no. Oh, no. Oh, no.” Kevin’s response was simple. He said to her, “I pray that Jesus removes the mud from your eyes.” And a year later, they were engaged. The two say they feel “divinely appointed to one another” and its clear that they are each other’s joy here on earth. Check out this adorable Oahu couple’s Love Story + Trailer with all their magical moments in stitched together in one.
And then, after you watch the film, go look at Melissa and Kevin’s gorgeous photos by the Chanson’s (same couple we worked with for Marah & Shawn’s Love Story). Which brings me to another point… did I mention that Melissa is a wedding coordinator? That’s right! We’ve worked with her (Let’s Do This) many times and feel honored to be a part of her very own wedding day! Anyway, Breanna wrote the most touching blog post on Melissa & Kevin!
Under the beautiful skies of Playa Del Carmen, Lindsay and Keaton became one as they said their vows in front of family and close friends. On the balcony of PlayaCar Beach Palace Resort, the adorable couple reveled in their joy. The way Keaton’s eyes welled up as he saw his bride enter was so endearing, and the excitement on Lindsay’s face was undeniable. I know these two will lead a wonderful life together. Stay tuned for their Feature Film, but for now, enjoy their Hoo Trailer!
