aprilavica: My friends girlfriend, Lauren Spierer, has been missing for what will be a week tonight. Please join the IU/Bloomington family in her search and reblog. Through the power of social media, Lauren’s disappearance has gathered national attention but it is not enough until she is found. For updates follow @NewsOnLaurenS on Twitter. Thank you! We pass around way too many funny pictures of babies, kittens and other memes on the internet to not reblog something of real value like this. I don’t know this girl personally, but if she was my daughter, I would be hopeful that strangers would help spread the word of her disappearance so that she can be found and brought back home. I pray she’s alright and makes it back to her loved ones quickly.

Joe & Celeste Michaels - The Wedding Montage

I had the pleasure of flying out to Indiana last weekend to attend the wedding of Joe & Celeste Michaels. Celeste is April’s mother. The wedding was absolutely beautiful and it took place on October 10th, 2010.

I’m so happy for Joe, Celeste, April and the rest of their families. I hope this video serves as a reminder of how special this day was.

Music credits:

  1. “L’après-midi” by Yann Tiersen
  2. “Home” by Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros
  3. “I’ll Be” by Goo Goo Dolls/Edwin McCain
  4. “La Corde” by Yann Tiersen

The video footage was shot on using a FlipVideo UltraHD.
The photos at the end were shot using a Canon Rebel XSi.
The montage was edited on a MacBook Pro using iMovie 8.0.6.

April Visits Washington! - Third Trip (May ‘10) - Video Montage

April got an internship out here in Seattle for the summer. I decided to fly out to Indiana (one-way) so that we could both drive her car out to Washington. This montage chronicles the majority of our adventure; including dealing with the epic loss of her 2001 Ford Focus only 7 hours into our trip.

I felt the scrapes from the slippery subway grate. Oh how you laughed at my complete lack of grace. But I could not recall a more perfect fall, Cause when I looked up into your eyes… it didn’t hurt at all. And I thought: “be still my heart”. This could be a brand new start, with you. And it will be clear, if I wake up and you’re still here.. with me.. in the morning.
