Titleholder Farewell Video – Alexandra (Taylor) Hushek

I am excited to share with my blogging friends the full-length version of Alex’ Titleholder Farewell Video. Let me just say this: Alex was so amazing to work with. Not only did she provide for me more than enough material to work with, but because of her 3,000+ hours of community service, she had no problem articulating what her years of service meant to her:

👇Watch her full length video below!👇

Alex, I truly hope this video serves as a reminder of how amazing you are. I hope that you will be able to look back with this video and reflect on this wonderful chapter of your life that has forever impacted not only YOUR world, but those God brought into your life that you were able to encounter on a daily basis.

You made a difference, and you made an eternal impact – don’t ever forget that. ♥

Updates from Christie

Welcome to my new and improved website!

Notice something different? Why not change up my website in conjunction with a change to my last name! :-)

I am excited to finally get this new website design launched for my online community. I feel it is imperative to get the new look up and running!

 

Where have I been since the last post? How about...

• Wedding preparations...and more prep...and MORE prep
• Getting married!! 4.22.16 <3
• Honeymoon getaway in Maui
• Settling in a new part of town (still in Phoenix, but now with a hubby and new place!)
• Re-organizing and planning
• Seeing "what's next"
• Working on the side!

So...what's next (for the blog)??

1) Our wedding photos (and reviews): Since a good chunk of time derived of wedding planning and preparation from Jan-April, I figure once my professional photos arrive, I'll include a post of photos from my wedding (PS – Shout-out, as I am SUPER thankful to family and friends who captured moments like below to "hold us over" Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU)! I loved being able to plan out my own wedding, and cannot wait to share more about the journey!

My husband and I on our wedding day!

Our first dance... <3

2) "Mauimoon" photos: ALSO...be on the lookout for a post with an amazingly awesome photo shoot from our Honeymoon in Maui! I cannot wait to share those! Here are two sneak-peak pics in the meantime...

As a heads up for all my future clients reading this post, I like to combine a little bit of my professional work with personal "day-to-day" on my blogs. I love doing life creatively, so the two worlds sometimes inevitably combine. I hope this mix helps you get a taste of my personality, as I look forward to the opportunity of working with you!

 

So...what's next (for the business)??

As you can see, there are some newly listed business services I provide! I would love for you to explore each area. I make sure to provide excellence in each category, and I am also happy to send reviews to give you the best assurance of my professionalism and experience level. There are still areas under contruction, but I believe what is provided is a great base for launching the updated website design. Stay tuned for more updates! :-)

Until next time, have a creative day!

Roosevelt Lake - Video Shoot

Roosevelt Lake - Photo by Christie Roshau

Welcome to Roosevelt Lake! ☀ This past week I directed/produced a segment to a project I'm working on (which included a 3am wake-up call) out by the lake. It was wonderful to work with such a talented group of individuals. If you haven't been out to Roosevelt Lake, I highly suggest it – it's absolutely gorgeous out there!

The Crew

The crew (left to right): Genaro (grip), Julie (makeup), Daren (grip), Joe (audio), Robert (Steadicam)

Something that is so crucial for me on my video shoots is to work with people that are passionate about their individual gifts and talents. I had an incredible camera man who has an ability to bring out on camera the vision I have for a project. My lighting grip is just an all around amazing, whose presence just lights up any room he walks into -- literally! :-) The audio mixer communicated so well to let me know how everything is sounding (even if a loud motor kicks in during the middle of a take!). My grips were both ready to think ahead for me, and extend the helping hands wherever needed. The makeup artist not only looked out to make sure makeup and hair was fabulous, but she also has an eye to point out details during a take that may otherwise be missed. My talents were absolutely wonderful to work with, and had their lines memorized and ready to go!

The Lessons

It was a long day - a very long day! Waking up at 3am surprisingly came easy, and I can only thank God for that. As a director/producer for this project, the most difficult part was to be able to step back and breath, as I had to continuously be thinking ahead to the next location, talent, script, etc. Nevertheless, I have to say that directing and producing are my two favorite parts of the whole production process. Pulling in the best crew for the job and being able to execute the vision is so satisfying. Being able to work on projects like this really help me to learn from my mistakes, continue striving in areas I'm doing well in, and listen to the ideas and suggestions from others on my shoot.

Until next time, keep creating!
