We’re storytellers who love using video as the medium in which to tell the stories we and others experience.

We want you to be proud to show off your wedding film to your relatives and friends. We are based in the beautiful UNESCO Heritage City of George Town situated in Penang, Malaysia. We often travel to capture stories./// OUR PHILOSOPHY ///
We believe that weddings are a social celebration of a very sacred commitment. We feel honoured to be participants in every wedding we film. We treat both the day and the people involved with the highest level of respect. Most of all, weddings are a day filled with beauty and magic that emerges effortlessly. We believe our job is to capture that magic in the most authentic way, which means no directing you to act it out for the camera. The result of this would be a story that is pure, relevant, meaningful and unmistakably you./// CREATIVE STORYTELLING ///
We believe that a strong wedding film is achieved primarily through character driven storytelling. It involves the creative documentation of real moments and real people that drives the story forward.Creative sequencing, colour correction and grading, sound mixing and editing, composition, lighting and music also play crucial roles. A healthy balance of well motivated camera movement further heightens story as well as emotions. Wedding cinematography is more than just pushing a button on the back of a camera. Couple should seek for cinematographers who will not only capture the beauty alone but also who have a vision to tell a story about the couple’s relationship, love that leads to the wedding. The unique blend of ‘real’ love chemistry and the day of their wedding really makes the story a complete journey for the couple and their families./// THE RIGHT FIT ///
