Melissa & Harrison :: Anniston, AL

We often hear couples reflect on their wedding day as a "blur". It's hard to remember all of the beautiful details if they aren't on film. Your wedding day is a once in a lifetime experience, and we know you want to remember every second! The look in your husband's eyes when he saw you for the first time in your wedding gown. Seeing your bride walk down the aisle toward you. Your family and friends looking on with love during your first dance. These are the moments you'll want to relive - again and again! 

We consider it an honor every time we get the opportunity to capture a couple's love story. Being invited into the Foster's sacred day was truly a privilege and a JOY! Melissa & Harrison pledged their love and lives to one another on February 3, 2018. Their ceremony was held at Golden Springs Baptist Church in Anniston, AL, and the reception was at the Anniston Country Club.

Watching the way Melissa & Harrison love each other - and everyone around them - was a beautiful thing to behold. It’s rare to see two people that love so well (and are loved so completely)! We feel blessed to have gotten to know them, their friends, and their family!

Mr. & Mrs. Foster - we hope you feel the LOVE and JOY you experienced on your wedding day each and every time you watch this video. Congratulations again!

Hotel Finial :: Highlight Video

This Spring we had the incredible privilege of creating a styled shoot at the newly remodeled Hotel Finial in Anniston, AL. We absolutely fell in love with this gorgeous 128 year old historic hotel, and we hope that after watching this video, you'll fall in love with it too! 

We've already shared our favorite photos from this shoot, from our first blog featuring a timeless wedding look here, to our second and third looks that leaned more towards "Old Hollywood Glamour" (another wedding look and a high-end engagement look) here. We focused primarily on photography for this shoot - but we were able to steal a few minutes during our first look to also do a little videography. Check out the video below for some highlights from our shoot, and a closer look at this beautiful hotel! 

As you can see, Hotel Finial is an exquisite location for a wedding - or any event that you want to make truly memorable. Contact them today to book your next event, and be sure to contact us to shoot your videography or photography! We would love to capture every memorable moment.

Nice to Meet You

Hello and welcome to my first ever blog post on my brand new website! Although this site is just days old, RJackson Media is not. I started this business venture in 2013, and it's been growing ever since!

Just a few years ago, my wife Ericka (who is my incredibly talented partner) and I realized that there was a great need for high quality video at a competitive price. This is especially true for small businesses and non-profits!  You see, the two of us run our own non-profit - The Sound of Hope. So we understand balancing small budgets with expensive video and photography needs. It was this idea that launched RJackson Media. 

Myself personally... I've been in the media game for 13 years. I started out as a TV sports anchor and reporter in Arkansas. Most recently I've worked internationally on documentary style pieces. This work has taken me into the red-light districts of Thailand, slums of India and remote areas of Africa. 

Folks, I love telling stories! And I love to do it through beautiful video and breath-taking photography - few things in this world get me more excited! Travel photography, wedding videography and photography, headshots, small business shoots, non-profit media - we do it all! So please, take a look around our website, check out our work and let us know how we can serve you! We'd love an opportunity to tell your story!
