Working with peoples memories

This is just something that was running through my mind last night, so I thought I'd put it up to see if any of you have had the same experience.

I've had the privilege of working on quite a few video projects in the past year or so and I'm working on a new one this week for a client who wants to give, as a wedding gift, the video that she took of her friend's wedding. They had the wedding in Hawaii and of course had a local pro video editing company come in and take some vid and edit it up to a DVD (which I personally didn't find very pro-like.. but that's just my opinion) but the stuff I have is what the client took. The more "personal" side of things that the pro's weren't around for. The job is to take about an hour of this home video and scrunch it into about 15 mins with some specially selected songs from the client. It's not an easy job as there are so many places that can't be "used" as well as I'd like to (video shake, bad lighting etc..) but I really enjoy working with video so that's not biggy to me. The one dif I see with the "pro" DVD and what this video is going to be is that the look and feel that is coming across is much more personal and close up with the main characters, bride, groom and family. It's got the comments during the lunch and dinner before the big day, the look of each family member while they get the normal butterflies we all get before such a big day. It fades into the wedding day, and there are all these feelings just written all over everybody's face as the bride gets out of the limo at the church, father walks her up the aisle, he's nervous and you can see he's doing his best not to shed a tear in front of all because he's giving his beautiful daughter away to another man. It pans off again to the happy couple at the alter, the mother dabbing her eyes in the background, clapping, happiness, sunlight and then off for the photoshoot where this happy young couple get captured in time in a variety of places while the rest look on in pride and happiness. It's nothing like a presentation vid I did a while back for Disney where you just have to line up some neat graphics with vid and music.... these are peoples memories. Touching and hearstring-pulling memories. More than once I choke back a slight sniffle in happiness for this couple as they share the start of their new life together. *sniff* *sniff*.. getting all mushy just thinking about it again. Way off topic, but I had to get it out. Thanks for reading :)
