"A Red Hot Wedding"

I was the cinematographer/videographer for the Christopher Heinz and Alexandra "Sasha" DeRuyter Lewis wedding at St. John's Episcopal Church Lafayette Square across the street from the White House and the reception was held at the Andrew W. Mellon Auditorium in Washington DC. The event was just nominated for an International Esprit Award for Best Wedding Over $200,000. and won Best Wedding in the 2008 Washington DC ISES Capital Awards competition.

It truly was a red hot wedding. Sen. John Kerry rocked out with his guitar with "Johnny B. Good" and "Rings of Fire." And Blink 182's Tom DeLong, a friend of the groom played a super solo of his own.
