Many of you are familiar with the story of Easton "Superman" Zanger and his family. This family has faced unbelievable obstacles in the past year. They've been to hell and back, and their journey is far from over. They are truly an amazing family-- they've endured their struggles with such incredible strength and grace.
When Shannon (Easton's mom) approached me with the idea of telling Easton's story through a video, I was beyond excited. The idea of contributing in a small way to such an incredible family was both an honor and a challenge. I had never done a video project quite like this one, and I wanted to give the Zanger family an appropriate tribute to their journey thus far.
One of the songs I used in this video is entitled "Crazy Ride". The song is about the ups and downs in life, and how we all experience both heartbreak and triumph. I can't think of anyone who has experienced a more "crazy ride" in 2011 than Easton and his family. And yet, through it all, they remain an incredibly close-knit and loving family. Each member of the Zanger family is truly a superhero in my book, and it is my pleasure to share a small piece of their story with you.
*This video is about 15 minutes long, so depending on your Internet connection, it may take a few minutes to load. Also note, the first few seconds of the video have no sound- the music will begin after the opening slide.

Welcome to the Smiles Remembered video blog!
My name is Samantha Kerr, and I am the owner of Smiles Remembered Custom Video Productions. While the "Smiles Remembered" business is relatively new, I have been involved in video editing for about eight years. I have worked on video projects for both personal and professional endeavors, and have loved every minute. Video editing is truly a passion of mine.
When a friend from high school contacted me earlier this year to see if I would be interested in doing the videography for her wedding, I was really excited about the opportunity. While I have found some success in the business world since graduating college, I have never had a job more rewarding and fun than videography and video editing. After some soul searching, I decided to take the plunge and officially go into business on my own as a video editor and videographer. And so, Smiles Remembered was born.
Since my friend from high school, Kasey, was in part the inspiration to the beginning of my business endeavor, it seems appropriate that her wedding video be the first to be featured on my blog. Tim and Kasey got married on November 12th, and their wedding couldn't have been more beautiful. It was my pleasure to capture the love and joy that they share. I hope that they'll look back on their video for many years to come and remember what a special day it was.
Enjoy! Be sure to check back for more video posts in 2012.
