Fox Valley Wisconsin wedding and event video production services. Let me show you how to produce an awesome video of your special day!
I sometimes do a bit of wedding video production even though photography, still images, are my first love. I produced a wedding ceremony video for Katrina and Nick's lakeside wedding. I used three cameras for this ceremony and 4 audio recordings (the cameras and the house sound system). I placed two of the cameras on the sides of the ceremony so that each would capture a different view. These cameras were left in place for the entire ceremony. I place the third camera on my monopod and moved around to capture different views and close ups of important moments. Here…
Went out and did a film shoot plus video shoot this past weekend. I have been attaching my GoPro Hero 7 video camera to my Bronica ETRSi medium format film camera and shooting video along with photos. This shoot used Kodak Tmax 100 film that I developed myself. Scans were done using a Canon 5dmkIV camera with 100mm macro lens. So here is my short video of the shoot with the final developed pictures. Music by me performed by me on various instruments.

Here is another video in my Shoot-a-Month project. I started this project in 2020 as a response to the slower photography market. Not as much business so might as well plan a creative project for every month. I had so much fun the project is going to continue into 2021. For this latest video I met up with Dreamera Marie and we did a fast shoot on a Saturday afternoon. This video features my interpretation of an old April Wine song. All parts played by ME and looped on Ableton Live 11. Do Ya Wanna Rock? from Jalanlee on Vimeo.…

My main "gig" is photography but I also have done quite a bit of video. I am an all around video producer that both shoots and edits - and often writes and directs! In 2020 I started a shoot-a-month project in which I committed to producing one creative project each month. I have continued this project into 2021 and plan on going until I am out of ideas! Shoot-a-month is all about trying something different, working with new people and bringing something uplifting into the world - or maybe just having some fun! This month I worked with the beautiful…
Thursday Afternoon in Neenah from Jalanlee on Vimeo. Thursday in February in Wisconsin and its snowing. Imagine that! Tomorrow morning will be busy clearing the snow but for now I enjoyed the beautiful snowfall. Here is a a short capture of that beauty. The music is a live loop I recorded. It was done with Ableton Live 10, Ableton Push 2, my Roland Juno keyboard and my Gretsch Electromatic guitar. Just a 4 chord progression with a little playing around.

Captured at the Mitchell Conservatory (The Domes) in Milwaukee on a 5d MkIV in 4k. The camera really tracks focus well and the footage is just beautiful down sampled to HD video. After the video are a few screen shots. They show the really high quality of 4k images in the video. Circling Koi from Jalanlee on Vimeo.

Out scouting locations for a photo shoot. Found this awesome railroad bridge over a little creek. Here is a short video of the bridge - look for a photo shoot soon!

A snowy day in January is a perfect opportunity to do some landscape photography. We have been blessed with a week of beautiful rime frost. Not something that happens a lot in Wisconsin. Everything was coated in milky white ice and it was truly magical! So I pulled out my trusty Bronica ETRSi medium format camera, loaded it with Kodak Tmax 100 black and white film, and headed out for a shoot. I also brought along a GoPro Hero 7 camera. I mounted the GoPro on the camera (flash shoe mount) and recorded a video during each exposure. Don't know…
Carly and Ryan's lakeside wedding - set to the song Circling. A short review of an almost perfect day. Carly and Ryan were married on a beautiful June day on the shores of Green Bay in Fish Creek. This video is combines some of our favorite memories from the day - enjoy! I have always like both still images and motion pictures. I have been steadily building up a great set of professional video equipment and plan on doing a lot more video in the future. Ironically, I find myself drawn to film and alternative photography more and more. To…
https://player.vimeo.com/video/424312592 Just having some fun and having A Summer DReam! Megan, Karrington and I shot this video on one of the first hot days of 2020. It is so much fun to just go out and create something fun and whimsical. As adult people, we are pressured to be "serious" and act like "adults". But who doesn't want to cut loose once in a while and just like a kid again? Especially this year when it seems like the bad news will never end? "A Summer DReam" was shot in 4k on a Canon 5d MkIV. All editing was done…
I get asked all the time "What 'cha been doin'?" Sometimes I feel like I've been doing nothing interesting. Sometimes I feel like I don't have time to breathe! Below is a video of the past year or so of pictures video showing some of the things I've been doing. Makes me feel a bit exhausted - and the video leaves a lot of things out. Life is an ADVENTURE - every day holds promise of drama and fun and service. Have an adventure today! What 'Cha Been Doing? from Jalanlee on Vimeo.
Finally finished the video of out anniversary tour of the waterfalls from Northern Wisconsin to the Minnesota border with Canada. There was lots of rain before we left so the falls were all pretty awesome. The down side was some of the falls were not accessible due to flooded trials (at least too flooded for a couple of middle age folks). Enjoy!
La Jolla Sunsets from Jalanlee on Vimeo. Vacation is over - back to work! But the memories persist. A warm beach, God's paintbrush splashing colors you can only imagine! Is Winter over yet!
It was a beautiful night on Monday and the clouds were very interesting. The lower layer was moving one direction and the higher layer was moving another. I shot a 40 minute time lapse and here is the video. Halloween at Midnight from Jalanlee on Vimeo.

Some Wedding fun from last year. We made this video to show at the reception. When the couple was introduced at the start of the reception we announced they were late then showed the video. The Couple came into the hall at the end of the video and the crowd went wild! Maria and Chase are Late from Jalanlee on Vimeo.
The oven is done and the pizza parties have begun! Below is a video of the whole process boiled down to a few minutes. Our Pizza Oven from Jalanlee on Vimeo.
Seems like there are way too many Traffic signs in Neenah. So on a quiet Sunday I decided to take a bike ride and capture a picture of each sign on the route of my morning work commute. I drive about 3.5 miles and around 6-8 minutes depending on traffic. An hour and a half later I was at work and just plain tired ! I had intended to take pictures both ways (both sides of the road) but ran out of energy. There are over 250 signs on my way to work (so maybe 500 total both ways). Forget…
I saw these leaves blowing around by the cathedral in Ieper and found them to be beautiful! Ieper Leaves from Jalanlee on Vimeo.
Just a short test run of my new home made video rail. Everything worked out pretty well. The moon disappeared as the stormy weather moved in. More videos to come! Before The Storm from Jalanlee on Vimeo.
Pastor Phil was out guest vocalist this Sunday in worship. Here is his rendition of Shine Like The Sun. Shot with Canon 7D and processed with Premiere Pro CS5 and After Effects. Shine Like The Sun from Jalanlee on Vimeo.

St. Mark's hosted a 24 hour prayer vigil starting at noon on Good Friday. There was continuous prayer during this time in the sanctuary. We also had a number of people praying from their homes. Prayers were said for our church and the world, people suffering illness and for peace. Some people prayed for the entire church membership. After the vigil we sat down to record some of our thoughts and experiences. Following is a short version of what happened - longer version to come later.
