If you missed Blue Rodeo’s Backstage Pass on CBC last Friday, November 11th, 2016 at midnight…here’s a chance for you to check out a few of their songs from their latest album ‘1000 Arms’!!!

It was a very intimate environment filled with some of Blue Rodeo’s biggest fans as they had the opportunity to see them face-to-face in Toronto at CBC’s in-studio shoot to hear their newest songs. You can see them live, since they are currently on tour…check their tour dates to see if they will be in your area.

NICOLE & DANIEL’S HIGHLIGHT REEL | GAIRLOCH GARDENS | MISSISSAUGA CONVENTION CENTRE

Nicole & Daniel initially got in touch with us about our videography services through one of our previous clients! It’s always a pleasure to work with friends of other happy couples we have served over the years. Although the day started with rain, we reassured Nicole & Daniel that the rain is a symbol of good luck and surely wouldn’t last long! Both bride & groom were lucky enough that the rain only happened in the morning and the remainder of the day was as beautiful and sunny as you could ever hope for. With Daniel anxiously awaiting his bride at the top of the aisle, his breath was taken away seeing Nicole looking absolutely stunning in her wedding dress as she walked down the aisle to be given away by her parents. When they finally gave her over to Daniel, everyone was quite emotional as she was no longer just her parents’ daughter but soon to become her fiancee’s wife. The ceremony at Cristo Rei Parish Roman Catholic Church was very touching and having been there so many times before for previous Client’s weddings…it felt like home, especially when Father Carlos Macatangga conducts the ceremony with his usual passion and warm sense of humor. Shortly after, the newlyweds were whisked off to Gairloch Gardens in Oakville, where it felt like a whole other world with its beautiful gardens and vistas that were simply breathtaking to look at. Afterwards, the reception took place at Mississauga Convention Centre with very stylish decor and a beautiful wedding cake made by none other than Nicole’s mom. What a fantastic job she did!...

CBC PARALYMPIC SAMBA PROMO FOR THE RIO 2016 GAMES

We’re proud to debut a commercial we directed for CBC Music for the 2016 Paralympic Games in Rio, Brazil! It was a lot of fun to utilize the Paralympic equipment to create all the unique percussion sounds used in the piece. We were especially impressed by the sound a simple tennis racket can make in the right hands! Jillian MacSween, who helped win a bronze medal from the 2015 Toronto Parapan Am games in goalball, participated in this promotional spot. Special thanks to Batacuda Carioca for all their talent and vibrant energy, you were all fantastic to work with. Take a look at the video! The 2016 Rio Paralympic Games takes place September...

IDA & JOVAN’S HIGHLIGHT REEL | THE MANOR BY PETER & PAUL’S | KETTLEBY, ON

It was such a delight to have met Ida and Jovan, who were referred by Angie Choi from Eyekahfoto! Ida, who works in the television industry, knew that she could trust us, LaPointe Productions, to do the job well! She mentioned during the initial consultation that she was able to recognize the professionalism and expertise that we put in our services by viewing our on-line work and acknowledged that cinematography/videography was an important part of the documentation of her big day with Jovan. Fast forward to the day of Ida and Jovan’s summer wedding, we were very impressed with their choice of venue as we drove to Peter and Paul’s The Manor, which was very lush and stunning to see. We finally got to see Ida as she was getting ready for her big day! Once she put on her wedding dress and slipped on her shoes, we knew that she was ready to say “I do!” with her big smile on her face! As for Jovan, we knew that he was filled with anticipation and very excited for their first look! When Ida and Jovan saw each other for the first time, there was tears of happiness coming from both, especially Jovan, who couldn’t keep his eyes off his bride-to-be. From that moment, both really wanted to start this new chapter of their lives together. Their outdoor ceremony was just beautiful! Once again, Enduring Promises who officiated their wedding, did an awesome job. The reception was filled with emotion and lots of dancing all throughout the evening, you couldn’t stop either side of the family from hitting up...
