When we first met Rachelle and Christopher we knew their wedding was set to be an epic one, and it blew that expectation out of the water! All set to marry in the unforgettable Château De Jalesnes, this incredible couple were set for a scenic, cinematic celebration that our photography and videography team would never forget capturing – a destination wedding like this always makes for the most amazing cinematography, especially in such a magical, authentically French venue.
THE HIGHLIGHT FILM
THE NEWLYWEDS
With nothing but glamour coming from every angle of this picture-perfect duo, our cinematography team were certain they’d have to pull out all the stops to do this tale of true love justice. From Rachelle’s elegance and majesty, framed by the scenery of the Château, to Christopher’s heartfelt reaction seeing his bride for the first time, these two gave us every opportunity for perfect moments to capture, with and without direction from our powerhouse Director, Christian ‘Big Red’ O’Reilly. Rachelle and Christopher came to us prepared with a universe of ideas and inspirations, but still gave our expert team the room to play and craft unforgettable frames for every pulse of their films and gallery.
THE VENUE
Rachelle & Christopher opted for a destination wedding at Château De Jalesnes, the beautiful renovated Renaissance castle built in 1610. We have a close working relationship with the accommodating owners of the Château, and enjoy our regular visits to the venue for luxury weddings. Nestled in 20 acres of forest in Vernantes, South France, Château De Jalesnes offers exclusive use of a banquet hall, an authentic stone domed roof chapel, a rustic wine cellar, swimming pool and formal gardens. It’s the perfect venue for a dream fairytale wedding.
The Vibe That Went VIRAL!
We knew this day would be too good to miss, but little did we know that so many people would agree! As Rachelle and Christopher’s Highlight Film hit the web, share buttons were smashed by THOUSANDS, and before we knew it, our signature style of epic, unmissable wedding cinematography was flying into DM’s and For You Pages faster than we could keep track! The world agreed that this beautiful day was one worth watching, and we couldn’t be more honoured to catch every moment. You can check out their viral Highlight Film here!
TIP ON STYLE
Being an educator in the photography/cinema world, we frequently get asked “should I nail in a style.” Although this is very important, speaking from the perspective of Fire & Ice, it becomes more specific than just one ‘style’. We aim to create a style for each individual couple that we work with and we do this by executing a thorough preparation and planning process prior to the big day.
