There is something about Super8 that feels like a memory before the day is even over. The grain. The flicker. The way it softens everything just enough to feel timeless.
We just got Gabriela and Byron’s Super8 rolls back and already you can feel it. Him fixing his tie with that quiet, happy smile. Her sitting in the makeup chair, delighting in the feel of the brush on her cheek. The dress hanging in the cottage light at The Homestead. Gabriela spraying champagne into the air. Big hugs with the people who stood by them when life felt heavy. The way they spin and laugh during their first dance like the world finally exhaled.
After nine years, family loss, job changes, cultural tensions, and choosing each other over and over again, this day is more than a wedding. It is proof. Proof that softness can follow survival. Proof that “you choose me and I choose you” is enough.
Super8 does not feel flashy or overproduced. It feels honest. Nostalgic. Like something you will hold onto when memories matter most. Especially for couples who know how quickly moments can fade.
We can’t wait to incorporate all of this beautiful footage into Gabriela and Byron’s film, giving it the perfect fairytale feel.
If you are dreaming of a film that feels warm, genuine, and deeply personal, this is why Super8 belongs in your story.

Photo dump from @socaldriversclub track day.
Still learning with each opportunity to apply principles of shutter speed and panning. Thank you to @vbghostwrx for the lessons! Can’t forget about @dieppindots - thanks for teaching how to rotate a CPL 😮💨
Monday motivation or Monday reality check 🤨
The Toyota 4Runner 5th Generation is over a decade old…
same engine, same transmission, barely changed.
And yet… people STILL choose it over newer SUVs every day.
Why?
Because it works. It’s predictable. It takes abuse and keeps going.
But here’s the part nobody likes to say out loud…
once you build it out, it gets slow. Heavy wheels, bumpers, racks, tents… you feel every bit of it.
So now you’ve got two types of owners:
Leave it stock and keep it “reliable”
or build it out and fix the weak points as you go ⚡️
That’s where Pedal Commander comes in… not to add power, but to actually make the truck feel alive again. Instant throttle, no dead pedal.
Simple question…
Are you keeping your 5th gen mostly stock
or going all in and building it? 👇
