Loi,

I don’t even know how to begin to thank you for the most amazing wedding memento. You are one of the most creative and innovative persons I’ve met. You’re truly a master of your craft. I really can’t express how happy and proud I am to show my wedding video to my friends and family.

Your video has not allowed me to just remember my wedding day but rather relive the love that was present on that day. I think if Mike and I ever get into a fight, all we would have to do is watch the video and we would fall in love all over again.

It’s truly magical to watch and everytime I watch it, a new emotion arises and greater appreciation of all the hard work you put into the video. I’m truly in awe of your talents and I would recommend you to all future brides and grooms.

If you ever need anyone to vouch for your inspiring work, don’t hesitate to give my number... I could go on and on!! I hope to see you at future weddings and I look forward to working with you again.

Thank You!

Sandee & Mike, Canada

You could have never given us a more special gift than you did with our video... I don't know how I could ever properly thank you!” Kathy & Brian, USA
	“Loi. Words alone cannot express how we feel about our wedding video. We have watched the video every day, and our friends and family have enjoyed it immensely.” Anna & Dale, Canada
	“Your video not only touched our hearts, it has moved all my family and friends. Cynthia and I are forever grateful that we chose the right videographer for our wedding.” Cynthia & Irvin, Canada

The newest generation of wedding videographers, including WEVA award-winner Loi Banh of Vancouver, Canada, are highly motivated and willing to take creative risks. Is there a difference in style, attitude and philosophy between the “under 30” and the “over 30” videographer?

“We both approach it with the same intent of capturing the moments of a wedding day as faithfully as possible and with a level of technical proficiency that separates us from the hobbyists,” says Banh of any apparent generation gaps.

Based in Vancouver, Canada, Banh has built a solid and creative reputation around a unique, cinematic-type production style.

Loi Banh in action According to Banh, couples getting married today want shorter, cleaner videos. They don't want to feel the need to fast-forward.

Now, for the big question, is wedding video your destination or your vehicle? Banh speaks for many of us when he says, “I got into wedding videos for the autonomy and creative freedom. The majority of wedding videographers feel the same way, I imagine. We are content creators. We produce something that has a measurable impact on the person receiving it. There are few jobs in the world like this. Not only do you have the important task of preserving the memories of someone's cherished day, but you're also given the opportunity to infuse your own unique character into the mix.”

Banh adds, “There's the human need to tell a story. There really is no difference between making a film and a wedding video — they both require telling a story. Stories are being told every weekend.” Most wedding videographers can relate, no matter what their age.

Producing a moving, captivating wedding movie takes a great deal of care and attention to detail. Shooting a wedding is much like making a documentary that has a self-contained narrative flow, and successful wedding videos have a strong narrative flow. They tell a story and they do so without boring the viewer. And, should your video have even strangers to the wedding party reaching for their hanky, you know you've done your work well.

One of the winners at the EXPO was Loi Banh, who won three awards and was also one of the seminar presenters. Banh edits with Apple's Final Cut Pro and uses Adobe After Effects to create some amazing work. Watching one of Banh's wedding videos is like watching a feature film. He may well be the Steven Spielberg of the wedding video industry.
