    Oddly enough, this is not the first time I have recorded a wedding from within the wedding party.  I had help of course, but I just can't seem to keep my hands off a camera.  Conrad and Morgan are dear friends, which is why this highlights reel is a little longer than usual.  The wedding took place at The Four Seasons Biltmore in Santa Barbara, which is a pretty amazing venue if you've never been there.  I've shot there in the past, and each time was at a different location on the property.  A lot of locations have one signature spot for this type of thing, but the Four Seasons is spread outward instead of upward like most hotels.

One of my favorite things about shooting at the Four Seasons Biltmore is that it sits right beside the pacific ocean.  There literally is no better place to be during sunset in Santa Barbara.  The view is spectacular and unobstructed.  This also allows for some great "golden hour" photography and video by the water.  For this wedding we were finishing up right during the prime lighting, which you can see in the highlights reel.  About the reception, this one ranked in the top five wildest groups I've witnessed.
