No, not what you think. Not a rip-off of his style. (impossible for mere mortals like myself anways). 
Actually, many of you may not be aware, but Jason got his VU handle from a very cool psychedelic rock band from LA who had a couple of hits in the early nineties. One of their most popular was “Fade Into You” which I used for this SDE.
I had used it for wedding segments in the past but never an SDE so when the groom suggested it, I was happy because I think its beautiful song, but a little bit worried. Reason being it’s a very long, monotone song. It doesn’t have the changes in speed that you like to see for an SDE song. That being the case, I was hoping they would have some good vows to add in. They did. Especially the groom who made everyone cry with his vows.
Very satisfying SDE because the BG were not at all excited about getting one and I had to talk them into getting my SDE only package. They didn’t have any expectations at all so they were floored. Also, photo thought she was too cool for everyone and kept telling me to move and even pushed me at one point. I deferred to her during prep and didn’t make a stink when she kept getting in my way. But during their first meet, the shot where they are looking at each other and there is a sun burst behind him, she literally pushed me and told me to move. I told her “nope” and stayed put. (You can see a little sway in the shot from when she pushed me!)
I went ahead made sure to keep that particular shot on the screen a little longer to rub it in a bit. 
She no longer thought she was so important when right in front of her the bride came up to me and hugged (AND kissed) me with her eyes full of tears she said..” I cannot begin to tell you how thankful I am that you did that”

and needed a light. Congrats on a job well done and for showing many the value of video. I hope one day in my area I can really push the value of video in the quinceanera market down on this side of the US. It's slowly changing but would love for it to be faster. Take Care 
How do you attach that Sony lite and what weights at you using at the base. If that heavy light falls, somebody dies. 
By the way, took my first golf lesson today, you are in real trouble now.
