Aloha Films

e will tell you you need a videographer. once again, they aren't lying to you. Charles was everything I could have hoped for & more! he showed up to my wedding ready to run thru the rain & make magic. he put up with my ever demanding friends & other vendors & I couldn't appreciate it more. so fast forward to two month later, when I got my wedding preview. I cried all over again! I could feel the love all over again! getting married in Hawaii you don't "forget" how breathtakingly beautiful your venue is, you just get to see it in a new light. I could never have seen the "whole picture" if it wasn't for this video. & then add on top of that, seeing all those faces, that flew thousands of miles for me my husband, the feelings are real. my husband will tell you over & over, Charles & his drone were worth every penny & then some. I couldn't be more thankful for Charles & his assistant. they captured the love, the smiles. the tears, the laughter & all the dancing & put in into a 6 minute video that was movie theater quality that everyone is raving about. mahalo niu loa Aloha Films.

ue was contagious and I can’t wait until the final product comes in and I can see his work! Totally work every penny that we spent!

ery responsive and easy to talk to. On the day of it was a joy to work with him. My wife and I are not used to being in front of the camera, but Charles made us feel so at ease and had great energy so that the shoot didn’t feel like work. He knew the locations within our venue at Kualoa Ranch that would make for great shots. He gave us much needed direction during our shoot while capturing natural moments. Charles is only one of two videographers allowed by our venue to use a drone, and the footage added an amazing element. The finished product turned out better than we could have imagined! Charles captured all of the moments we would have wanted in our videos and more. Charles is a great guy, and we would highly recommend aloha films for your special day!

the possibilities, the prices, the formulas they had. And then they were very flexible with our demands. I would pick them 100% again, you won't go wrong working with them!

f my best day ever!!!

edding or a real estate video of a home. Charles and his crew add feeling and capture the true essence and beauty of what they are filming. To be honest, the drone shots are what made his work stand out. The aerial views of our venue are worth every penny alone. Charles created the most wonderful wedding highlight video of our wedding day. Professionally, he was easy to work with and made us and others feel very comfortable in front of the camera. He worked well with the photographers we hired and the music choice for our highlight video fit so well with the feel of the day. If you are wondering if you should get a videographer--YES GET ONE! And if you are wondering who to pick-- pick Aloha Films. I have watched and re-watched this video and our ceremony as well and I cannot tell you how happy I am EVERY time I watch them both. My husband and I also added the live feed package to have the ceremony broadcast live to those who could not make the wedding. It is an added expense that is well worth it to share this very important day with friends and family who could not be in Hawaii with us. I immediately had messages following the ceremony telling me how beautiful and perfect everything was. I honestly am very pleased this was an option Aloha Films offers. Both the ceremony and highlight videos will help us remember just how wonderful and full of love our day was. I'm even more happy at the thought of having this as a visually interesting and beautiful film to share with friends and family, AND with our future children! I would have loved to have seen highlights of my parents wedding and Aloha Films have gone above and beyond to help us share this magical day with everyone we love. HIGHLY RECOMMEND Aloha Films. You and your partner will NOT be disappointed.

at we went with him and definitely HIGHLY recommend Aloha Films!

egin finding one. We went to a bridal expo and saw so many vendors! Only ONE stood out to us as amazing and that was Charles. The moment that we met him, we knew he was the perfect fit for us. His personality just exudes positivity and it was so evident the passion that he had! He was the only person we left talking about. We called him several times that day to ask questions and Charles was always available to answer and help guide us along the way. He even helped put us in contact with photographers. The service and quality that Charles provides is unparalleled. Charles made us feel so comfortable during the getting ready phase as well as the rest of the evening. Charles and his team worked really hard to capture a lot of difficult shots and we couldn't be more grateful! When we first saw our video, we were in awe. We just had to watch it several more times because it was just SO AMAZING! We HIGHLY recommend hiring Charles and his team at Aloha Films for your next special occasion, you WILL NOT be disappointed. I am not one to really ever write reviews but what Charles and his team did were just exceptional and I would love for other brides and grooms to have the opportunity to work with him.

credible surprise proposal I could have ever imagined. Their extensive knowledge of the island's best kept secrets led us to some of the most incredible experiences of our lives! Whether it was swimming with sea turtles & manta rays or hiking to scenic waterfalls, or cliff jumping at South Point, every moment was such an adventure that we'll always cherish.

s the perfect wedding video and experience we could have asked for. He answered all of our questions with details that made us feel confident in him and reassured us we were in good hands. He communicated very well and got back to us all the time with answers to our questions and he did a phenomenal job on our wedding video. All of our family members and friends absolutely love the video and he did an amazing job capturing all the perfect moments from our wedding. The day of the wedding went smoothly and effortlessly. Charles worked very professionally and at the same time made it fun. Charles is a stand out guy, great character and I would highly recommend him to anyone. It can be daunting with so many options out there, but Charles is top class in his field. Well done and thank you so much for capturing our special day!

Charles came very highly recommended by our Photographers and right away we could tell that Charles was different from the rest. Charles added different details and perspectives in his videos that made us feel our wedding video would be slightly more personalized and unique that the rest. He takes high quality videos that are spectacular! Charles also has a very excitable and knowledgeable personality that told us he would be an absolute joy to work with. One thing we noticed is that he made the experience enjoyable, with all of his creative ideas. He was able to quickly come up with poses on the spot as we didn't have time to practice beforehand. It enabled our shoot to go smoothly as he would keep calling out ideas to keep things moving along. I never felt like we were repeating poses. He is able to articulate his creative vision well and explain his ideas easily. Our wedding videos exceeded our expectations. I am glad we chose Charles and that he was able to capture the feelings of the day perfectly. I would absolutely recommend Charles to anyone! He is an amazing Videographer, and is very easy to work with. He is prompt on responding to emails and has delivered amazing customer service. His product is high quality and worth the investment. Thank you Charles!

erything was good to go; definitely recommend Charles and Aloha Films!

hoot with us and our guest. Aloha Films worked so well with both our photographers and was sure to cue us and our guest when he needed space or our attention for the perfect shot. We have and will, keep recommending them to friends and loved ones.

a Films. Charles was flexible with our budget & we got a great deal for the right price. He was fast at communicating with us & our wedding planner as we approached our wedding day so everything went smoothly. We had so much fun with our first look shots it made me so much less nervous for the ceremony, with Charles' positivity & happiness! We just got our highlight video & it made me cry. He did such an amazing job transitioning everything together, from the ariel view of the garden, to our first look, to our vows. It was way more than I expected & now I am recommending him to everyone I know having a wedding.

ridal Fair, she was “swept off of her feet” for the second time. So, when I went to Hawaii to help with wedding arrangements I met with Charles. I must admit I was “swept off of my feet” as well. We talked for over 2 hours about his work and I watched his samples with amazement. I asked him what would happen if it rained. Charles showed me how he actually slowed down the rain and made it an important part of the film. Between the time that we met and the day of the wedding if I had a question Charles texted me back immediately. On the day of the wedding, Charles was at the hotel and ready to roll. His comments and attention to detail were fantastic. From the beading on my daughter’s dress to the flowers for the attendants, he captured it all. And, we hadn’t even left the hotel room! The day was beautiful and Charles took some amazing shots of the wedding party at several parts of the Hilton Hawaiian Village where we were staying. There was no pressure to stage a shot but he emphasized being natural. Upon arrival at the church, Charles was there ready and waiting. He and his assistant had 3 cameras set up and after the ceremony used an aerial drone to capture what we could not see at eye level. During the reception, Charles never stopped moving; Video from all angles, and of everyone in attendance. The best part was that Charles was the “invisible man.” Even though we knew he was there, he was behind the scenes. It was like a free flowing movie production. The results are absolutely awesome. Having taken video of special occasions in my children’s lives, I always thought I was doing a good job. Charles proved me wrong. He is courteous, professional and open to suggestions. On the other side of the world, a royal wedding was taking place. However, we had the BEST videographer! I would strongly recommend Charles Roach of Aloha Films for any occasion so that you can relive the memories of one of the most important days of your life!

ch it! It was such a perfect documentation of our day and brings me back every time! He was so great through the entire process. I hired him less than a month before our wedding, which was luckily on a Monday so he was available. His drone shots are what drew me in to his work and the drone shots for our wedding did not disappoint!!! And the colors were so real, bright and vibrant, which I love! I am so so happy we hired Aloha Films and would definitely recommend to any searching brides.

ed in Oahu from Chicago and had to move up the planned day by two days due to the incoming hurricane Lane. Charles was accommodating and so thoughtful. I called him to say we were going to be 15 min late and he said something along the lines of “it’s ok and I really want you to breathe and take a moment to know this is your moment that you’ll always remember and take your time. This is your day.” He gave us a sense of calm when we needed it most and at the ceremony made us laugh and at ease under time constraints to get the perfect sunset ceremony we’ve always wanted. We can’t recommend Charles enough! Two weeks after returning home we received the highlight video that was simply stunning. We played it at our family reception and everyone was in tears. A truely awesome memory we will always have thanks to Charles and his talents! Mahalo again Charles! We will be back to reconnect in the future 🌴☀️🍾💕

o. We had the pleasure of working with Charles for our save the date video! I will tell you that he is very talented and creative!!! He definitely has the talent to tell a beautiful story by capturing intricate details of people and events. He is very passionate of what he do, and it definitely reflects on the quality of his videos! He is also fun to work with at the same time very professional, and puts his clients first. I am a very detail-oriented person and Charles exceeded all of my expectations!!! He worked with us through every step of the way! We are so lucky to have found him for our video! You definitely need to book Charles for any of your videography needs!!! He is the best videographer we ever worked with! Thank you again Charles!!! You're AWESOME!

st film equipment , and most importantly listened to my creative ideas and inputted them in. I already knew Charles work was good but when I got the final outcome it was way better than Imagined. I highly recommend Aloha Films to all brides.

oth in-person and by phone, Charles always made us feel and know that he was “all-in.” From hustling around Kualoa Ranch during our “Adventure” filming through rain to get the right shot, angle or vantage point, to sweating it out in the heat of Lahaina (Olowalu) on our wedding day- nothing slowed him down. Most importantly, on that special day when some things seemed chaotic, he made my wife comfortable and at ease. He put his heart into his work and everything he did for us. If you need and desire the highest quality of work with a matching level of all-out effort to capture your most precious event, contact Aloha Films and Charles Roach. Mahalo Nui Charles and Aloha Films for ALL you have done and are still doing. This won’t be our last time together, hopefully we will work on other things in the near future.

Charles. He was understanding, patient and personable and his can-do attitude meshed very well with ours. We felt confident that he would take great care of us. Our instincts proved right, we couldn’t have asked for anyone better than Charles! Like many couples, we had a limited budget, but we were pleasently surprised at how flexible Charles was and he customized his service and provided us several options to fit our budget. Charles was fabulous at capturing amazingly breathtaking moments that we will always cherish and treasure. And he did all this while totally blending in and not detracting from our event. Needless to say, Charles not only uses some of the best video and audio gear in the industry, but also has a keen key on what's important and knows how to capture it perfectly! On the day of our event, Charles and his assistant arrived early to our hotel to video both of us getting ready and still managed to get to our venue ahead of our guest to shoot drone footage of the event.  He didn't leave the venue until the end even though we were overtime.  It's worth mentioning that it drizzled throughout our event and rained heavily at times, not unsual for Hawaii. Nonetheless, Charles and his assistant performed flawlessly without a single complaint or hicckup.  In fact, he  was instrumental in keeping us cheerful and positive throughout our event even while he and his assistant were totally soaked. Simply put, he was fantastic. He was attentive, thoroughly professional and incredible competent. We wholehearted endorse and recommend Charles at Aloha Films. He won't disappoint.  Layla & Bejan Married April 7, 2018.              Oahu, HI

ything. He beautifully captured all key moments. Charles was a lot of fun to work with. He was very professional and organized throughout filming and editing process. We had a great experience with Alohafilmshawaii and definitely recommend to anyone looking.
