25 Things About Us

  1. We both love watching movies and making movies!
  2. We met at camp. No, not band camp, but Kathy does play the flute.
  3. Steph is an incredible cook! We love to entertain and cook for our friends. He won my heart with Duck a l'Orange. My mom always said he was a "keeper"
  4. We have always wanted to create a show for the Food Network.
  5. Steph graduated from Communication Studies at Concordia University, that is when we both made our first documentary together, it was about skiing.
  6. We have been filming weddings for 10 years and still LOVE our job. We are always thinking and trying new techniques to create a memento that our couples will cherish forever.
  7. We got married in Montreal with our closest friends and family, It's just unfortunate that our wedding video sucks!!! Videos should not be full of 80's cheese, it's just wrong.
  8. Kathy once won a breakdancing competition. Yes you can laugh, it was pretty funny.
  9. Steph worked at Mad River Post in Los Angeles where he had the amazing opportunity to work on commercials for Nike and created a No Doubt music video.
  10. We love hotels and dinning, you are not going to catch us camping anytime soon.

  12. Kathy worked on a cop show for Spike TV, that was a real change, I think I'll stick to weddings.
  13. We both strongly believe in following your dreams, it's incredible what can happen when you have great people supporting you. Our motto every day is "Go big or go home".
  14. Oscar night in our home is bigger then the Super Bowl.
  15. Kathy loves to dress up, which is one of the fun reasons to work at weddings! If you see a wedding vendor show up at a wedding wearing a cat shirt with bejewled eyes that should be considered a red flag.

  24. Steph prefers to be called Cecil B DeMarliss when he is directing a movie.
  25. Our favorite thing in the world is spending time with our amazing daughters (Hannah + Rachel). We are so lucky to have a job that allows us to spend quality time with them.
