We don’t normally do weddings, but when our close friends asked us to capture their big day, we couldn’t turn them down. Our goal was to make the best wedding video ever, and we think we gave it a pretty good effort. Thank you Amanda and Andrew for giving us the opportunity to show the world your love.

If beauty is in the eye of the beholder, than women are truly their own harshest critics. According to Dove research, only 4% of women see themselves as beautiful. Rather than looking through a prism of unrealistic and unhealthy stereotypes, we wondered what it would be like if women saw themselves through the lens of those that love them the most: their daughters. We ask a group of young girls to talk to us about why their mom is beautiful. They cut right to the chase.
