I put together a video of a child dedication event held at LifeConnection Church on January 29.
Behold, children are a gift of the LORD, The fruit of the womb is a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, so are the children of one’s youth. How blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them; they will not be ashamed when they speak with their enemies in the gate. (Psalm 127:3-5)

We came upon this location by accident. We were having lunch at a local tavern and saw that it had a special party room that wasn’t being used. The owner kindly allowed us to shoot there.

The closing shots featuring Palatine village were recycled from a previous video the church made. Music by The Antlers. Continue reading
My first attempt at making a short. I used a Canon T1i with the IS 18-55 kit lens. We went to a local Goodwill thrift store on a busy Sunday afternoon. People were laid back and mostly didn’t even notice us. No lighting equipment. Just me and a tripod. Without a steadicam, I tried my best to use the tripod as a counter-weight while strafing the aisles. Editing software: iMovie HD. Music: ‘Hard to Be’ by David Bazan
