Cinematography by Mason Jar Films

So, if Super 8 film is used to create that fantastic vintage feeling, 16 mm film is used when you want to acheive that same nostalgic feel...with a bit more clarity, color and richness... Mason Jar Films also specializes in 16mm films and it's pretty obvious...they are incredibly talented cinematographers. What I really love about this format, is that it seems to be the best of both worlds...one part old vintage, one part beauty. [MORE]

Wedding Inspiration Board

I thought that this inspiration board, created by one of our readers, was absolutely gorgeous...so "right now" but in that classic, forever beautiful kind of way... I love the infusion of crystal into this palette. It makes the entire look sparkle. I would encourage the bride to find little ways to sneak in a bit of glitz. Since the greys and the yellows are generally kind of a matte look, the addition of crystal will turn a seemingly modern affair into a really special... [MORE]
