Quite an honor – The Lucents – National Videography Awards

Jan 24

If you follow my work and inspirations you know that I travel to several film workshops a year to get inspired by fellow filmmakers, grow my business and learn to make better films. This fall I had an amazing time with my girls at POSH and learned SO MUCH from so many super talented women filmmakers from all over the country. Unfortunately, I am missing InFocus this week in LA. My kids both had important events at home that I didn’t want to miss. I have been watching much of the conference on their live feed and still getting some great ideas to implement for 2013.

This year our conference launched a National Award for filmmaking called the Lucent Award. The films were all judged by a select group of peers from all over the world and my Birth film was a finalist! I am so honored and humbled to be put into a group of such amazing and talented filmmakers. Not to mention getting to be a part of Cade’s amazing birth and helping his Daddy who was fighting in Afghanistan get to visually witness something that he missed when he was on the other side of the world.

Here is Cade’s Birth Film – don’t worry, it is not graphic!

Cade – Birth Film

Oct 20

This was maybe the most amazing and beautiful thing I have had the honor to film, a birth. I have only been present for my own births of my two babies and honestly, they were a little bit tricky, so this was particularly amazing as it was the first birth I have really ever witnessed. Cade’s daddy was in Afghanistan fighting the war on the day he was born, but was able to be there via skype and phone. You will hear his voice throughout the film and see the little camera on the tripod facing Elizabeth. They chose to birth this baby at home in water, and the amount of support Elizabeth had that day was simply beautiful. There are really few words that can be said for this story, you really just have to watch. Congratulations Elizabeth and Jeremy, and welcome home.
