One of my dearest friends in the world, Megan Hill, just launched her new 8mm wedding film company: Hello Super8! I'm a 15-year fan of Megan's visual aesthetic — she designed the invitations and stickers for our wedding and also designed my business cards. And her taste in music? She was one of our wedding DJs!
Therefore, you can imagine my excitement to see Megan combine her retro-modern eye and funky-ass musical ear to the world of Super 8 wedding films … and I'm absolutely in love with her concept of the Hello Guestbook. You've got to see for yourself:
Although Hello Super 8 is based in New York and London, Megan travels all over for her wedding films … now, would someone in Seattle pleeeeease book her so that I can crash your wedding as her "assistant"?!
To see more of Hello Super 8's 8mm wedding film work, keep reading!

Thanks for all the lovely comments… glad y'all like the films.
As for Elle's question, the song from the 2nd video is "Sea of Love" by Cat Power from her album "The Covers Record." So pretty, right?

Amazing work Megan. Super 8 video is the only thing missing from our otherwise perfect wedding, not that it will make the wedding better, but I'm in love with it. If only we could squeeze it into the budget.

So great! That first video was so full of fun-loving fun and love. And the second… I can't talk about it right now because I think I have something in my eye… I'm not crying I just have something in my eye, okay!?

I don't even have a boyfriend now and I am making a decalration to myself that if and when my day ever comes I WILL have HelloSuper8 videos. I just totally balled my eyes out. This completes the whole theme I visualize in my head. You truly have founf your calling Megan, it must feel wonderful to create something so beautiful and that makes others so happy.
