WHO WE ARE

Custom Video Events is the creative expression of a Emmy Award-winning Director. Telly Awards 2003 & 2005, Ommi Awards 2003, Videographer Awards 2003 & 2006, Horizon 2005. For over 30 years Steven Directed, Produced and Edited video for live events and for Network television as well for many famous Rock Stars with their music videos for MTV and VH1. "Our videos have the look and quality of a Network television special," says the owner Steven "each one is fresh, unique and specially designed for our clients". We also provide the same look and quality of a Network television special for our wedding events so they will look like a "real documentary that's absolutely touching and tender and almost everyone of our videos brings me to tears because they are that moving" states owner Steven. Adding the unique prospective and production expertise to the events business is Claudia as Producer & co-owner of Custom Video Events, a former model, fashion consultant from Europe. She has over 8 years of fashion Photography experience and travelling Videography worldwide."Our videos are highly edited and creatively crafted so you'll want to watch them from start to finish, and you will never want to fast forward" states the co-owner Claudia. "Our brides and grooms tell us we intimately capture the emotion and richness of their day without being intrusive" states owner Steven and co-owner Claudia. "We go way beyond people's expectations, because when you watch your event video, it's like going to the movies" states both owners.

States the owner Steven. “What really drives us the most and that is being able to have independent freedom so we can Produce and Direct with over 30 years of experience has given us and then to cut the final product and control the mood we want in our studio by creating the best feel of that work which becomes our "Hollywood Style” film approach”. “Our style is modern, professional and always touching which allows us to personalize each video event for our clients”. “As independent film makers there is nothing more satisfying”.

WHAT WE PROVIDE

We provide stress free productions to our clients. Our job consists of documenting your day without imposing upon it. According to the owner Steven "The most common complement we get is that we loved having you here and we didn't even know that you were there". Our clients are always pleasantly surprised that we get so much great coverage and still stay in the background. The second most common complement is that once people start watching their videos they can't stop! They watch them over and over again, states owner Steven and co-owner Claudia. "It's like a window into their soul" states co-owner Claudia. "You can count on our team to deliver a one of a kind, touching, emotional, wedding event documentary that reflects your unique personality and that it will be done in an unobtrusive and elegant and classy manner" states, owner Steven and co-owner Claudia. "Our Wedding Video style was developed by listening to our clients and reacting to their personalities" states, owner Steven and co-owner Claudia.

Our software is such a powerful application that lets us produce work as good as what you can rent at Blockbuster. You will get a Award-winning wedding DVD that do more than preserve the memorable day of the bride and groom, because the way we Produce, Direct and Edit events you will be able to watch your DVD for the rest of your life. We are seasoned professionals that create elegant movies that our clients treasure as family time capsules. A Custom Video Events DVD usually covers the whole day itself, from the chaos of preparations to the ceremony, photo sessions, reception and dancing and much much more. To these signal moments, Steven and Claudia add photo montages, music and major video segments all in High Definition or HD and in all cases with double video camera coverage. “We’ll have the bride and groom dancing to the first song,” says owner Steven “then cut to video camera 2 of friends and family crying as they watch". Just like a "Hollywood Style" theater movie™ says co-owner Claudia.

We maintain the integrity of our productions by having owner Steven and co-owner Claudia do all the shooting and editing, ensuring an intimate interpretation of your day.
