“If This is Love” With Emily & Megan

Emily Davis and Megan Hoggarth covering “If This is Love” in their own unique and beautiful style. These two are roommates and I can only imagine how happy the other girls in their house must be to have such wonderful entertainment night after night. I came across a simple laptop recording and another cover they put together and decided to have them on our blog! We are excited to share this video with everyone and are looking forward to many more like it with these two beauties!

 

Kretzer Wedding: Ben+Taren

Weddings

Well, here we are again with wedding “seasons” sneaking up on us!  Give Atonement Entertainment a call if your special day is coming up!

Something we value at Atonement is the special relationship between husband and wife and the true meaning of marriage.  It is the covenant and commitment between man and wife, but most importantly their promise to The Lord.

Another thing we love to do is capture details in a beautiful and creative way.  We think having your big day recorded and organized into a wonderful story highlighting the best memories is an important part of your wedding planning and budget.  Why spend all your time and effort and not have it kept forever to watch and show for generations to come?

Here is just one great example of what we can accomplish for your special day!

Kretzer Wedding: Ben+Taren

The Kretzer wedding was a beautiful wedding we had the pleasure of capturing for Ben & Taren.  This fun couple met at Kansas State and didn’t leave out their Wildcat spirit from their ceremony.  They also had all of their guests join them in taking communion before their final vows, which was a wonderful Christ-centered way of starting their lives together as husband and wife. Taren’s honoring of her late mother by placing a flower on an empty chair on the front row was so touching and heartfelt.

The serene outdoor venue for their ceremony made for incredible lighting and a gorgeous backdrop.  We loved seeing her dance the night away at the reception surrounded by their closest friends and family.   Ben and Taren are now living the married life with their sweet Schnauzer puppy “Archie” in Alaska where Ben is stationed in the Air Force.

We wish these two all the best!  Congrats y’all!

Jenna Paulette: Barn Jams Volume II

Jenna Paulette has so much heart, character, and beauty, and that’s just her voice!  Starting off with the “Miss Texas” music video, we have the continued pleasure of working with this down to earth country girl on her beloved “Barn Jams.” These live sessions really keep true to her roots and show you how much she loves to be there.  When Jenna takes on a challenge, she tackles it with determination.  She fills that dusty barn with her unique and unforgettable voice… cold weather, high heels, and all!

Jenna covered two fantastic songs that are equal in popularity and difficulty vocally: “Roar” by Katy Perry and “Counting Stars” by One Republic.  She also showed off more of her writing talent with two originals: “Shooting Stars” and “Anywhere With You.”  We are loving these lyrics! We’ve never known such a hard-working artist so full of music to share with the world.  This truly is her life.  We will be releasing each new Barn Jam Volume II on Tuesday of the next few weeks.  You won’t want to miss it!  Don’t forget to follow her blog and Facebook as well!

The following video is the first song of Jenna Paulette’s Barn Jams Volume II. “Shooting Stars” is an original track off her upcoming album.

Here is her cover of Katy Perry’s “Roar”

This is her cover of One Republic’s Counting Stars.  Jenna explained her order of songs that night as “first we count the stars, then we shoot them”!  Needless to say, stars were a big part of the night’s theme!

Finally, we have her original “Anywhere With You” which, much like her “Shooting Stars” original, tells a beautiful story with well written lyrics.

A big thanks to Tricia Marie Photography for these amazing behind the scenes photos!

Least of These: Band Portraits

“I would describe our music as aggressive and heavy hitting. We seek to glorify God in communicating our brokenness to others in the hopes that those who hear it can connect with the intensity and redemption that we’re hoping to convey through music. We believe our music is divinely inspired by God and we hope that this inspiration will carry us to wherever God sees fit for us to travel. Our primary goal as a Christ-centered band is to reach out to others and love others as best as we can. Conversion isn’t a goal, but communication is. We believe that we have been given something very important to say and we hope that we will get to share this message of love and acceptance through Jesus with everyone that we encounter at shows or at home. We will never know how far we will go until we get there, but we believe that we are about to embark on a powerful journey with The Lord in our ministry of Least of These.”
