give to their clients creates a completely different environment for the couple and guests. I so wish we would have hired a videographer...after the day is over all you have left are your photos, video (if you got one), and memories. Memories fade and you can’t hear photos. What we create for couples matters to us even more, because we’re giving them what we didn’t have. R: I would tell a couple to take time to get to know your spouse’s love languages. Find out how your future spouse best likes to communicate and how they feel loved and appreciated. Then when you are planning things will go so smoothly when making decisions. 4. What have you taught your spouse? K: The importance of slowing down sometimes. Being able to look around and enjoy the things around us that seem ordinary, but aren’t. R: I taught Kimber patience, ha-ha! My wife has been so patient with my crazy entrepreneur life, and has allowed me to teach her all about my passion for video. I taught her how to start editing and she became our full-tiime editor. 5. What has your spouse taught you? K: How to forgive quickly. R: Kimber has taught me to slow down. When I met her I was working full time at Best Buy, going to school for my masters, working part time at a hotel setting up for events such as weddings, and also working my wedding video business. Kimber has helped me learn that other things besides work are more important. 6. When are you happiest together? K: Ryan and I are happiest together when we’re on the same page. Our life is so full and sometimes going 90mph in 7 different directions. We have found that communication is the heartbeat of our marriage. If we begin to feel short with each other or notice a disconnect, one of us protects time in our schedule for communicating. I need it more than he does, but if we don’t do it, we both agree that our time together seems off and neither of us like that. R: We are happiest together when we are on the same page. Communication is key in any relationship and ours is no different. We also are very happy when we are driving down the road being silly and singing along with WGCA or relaxing watching a new TV series together. 7. It’s Friday night...what are you two up to? K: Depends on what time of the year it is. If its May-October, chances are we are either shooting a rehearsal dinner or prepping for a wedding the next day. Any other time of the year we could be going on a date night, watching Suits or Chuck, CALLING ALL MARRIED FOLKS! We want to hear from you! What do you remember about your wedding day? What has your spouse taught you? All of these questions are on our website and we want to hear your answers. Head to qabmagazine. com to be a part of our next issue! or making a plan for our weekend so we can make the most out of it. R: We are usually packing and prepping for a wedding the next day. If we don’t have a wedding, we are watching Suits or Chuck on Prime Video. 8. What have you learned about your spouse since you’ve been married? K: So many things! 1) He has two speeds: 100mph and sleep. 2) What a wide range of music he knows and loves. 3) How diverse his passions and abilities are.. 4) How deep his love for me is. R: I have learned what she desires, and that is for me to desire one thing more than her. That thing is my relationship with Jesus. Kimber wants to live her life for Jesus and I want to help her do that. 9. Would you ever consider renewing your vows? K: Absolutely!! We’ve talked about who our videographer will be! LOL. I can’t wait to do this someday in the future. I get teary eyed thinking about it. R: Totally! We didn’t have a wedding video, I know... we are videographers and didn’t have one. We were so concerned about budget and we cut it. We want to do a vow renewal and hire our favorite filmmakers Pen Weddings or The Film Poets to capture it. 10. What advice would you give a soon-to-be husband? K: Every woman is unique. Get to know yours. Deeply. Get a PhD in her. Study it all. Her big dreams and her little preferences. She wants to be fully known and fully loved by you. Become her best friend and never stop striving for more. R: I would tell a soon to be husband to be patient and be involved with wedding planning. It is a stressful thing for your bride and you need to be her support.
