Amora Cinema

e looked at A LOT of videographers, the search took about 4 months and we were almost giving up on a wedding video when we came across Amora Cinema. I won’t lie, we almost cried when we saw the videos they have in their website. Not only it was exactly what we wanted, we could feel the emotion in each one of the videos. And the best part is that when we met Rafael and Pauahi, we loved them! They are very professional, and they really know their stuff!! Our wedding video is above and beyond what we wanted. I probably watch the video at least once a day and it’s been 2 months since we got it, LOL. If you are still deciding on a videographer, visit Amora Cinema’s webpage and contact Rafael and Pauahi. They not only do an excellent job, they are excellent people. They are always willing to help, they take the time to get to know you to make a video that truly speaks to the couple’s personality. We LOVE our pre-shooting and wedding video, we couldn’t be happier with what we got!!

nd such a wonderful job that they did! Even if you're not comfortable being in front of a camera, Amora Cinema want to ensure that you receive an amazing video; so they will guide you along the way, even if that means meeting with you again after the wedding to record your vows. Once we've received our first draft, we had a few comments that we wanted to have incorporated, to which they gladly obliged! And as long as you specifically mention what and whom you'd want to see in the video, they will try their best to do so. Also the turn around time was a few months, but the wait was well worth it! They are wonderful people to work with, and you just can't help but to wish for them all the best. Thank you!

There were also a lot of details which, while each important to us, were quite incongruous. It was hard to imagine how someone could weave all of that together into a single video. We should not have been worried - Pauahi and Rafael somehow made everything fit together perfectly. The audio track was a wonderful mix of live performances from our wedding and an absolutely amazing song they found on their own. Imagery in the video told a clear, cohesive, and rich story. The pacing was a stirring combination of flowing movement and well-timed pauses. We loved it, as did all of our family and friends. My wife must have watched our wedding video at least a hundred times now - and the only reason I haven't is because I keep tearing up when I do. In short, we cannot recommend Amora Cinema's work more highly. Would also just add that Pauahi and Rafael are a pleasure to work with from day one all the way through to delivery of the final product.

g video we are!! Rafael and Pauahi so perfectly captured all of the excitement and emotion of our special day so that we can relive it over and over and over again. The video is seriously a piece of art - we get so many compliments on how cinematic it is and how it isn't just a recap of highlights, but how they beautifully tell the story of the day. Their work is just incredible.

acetime and as soon as we hung up, we knew that they were for us. You can hear the passion for their craft in their voices and it shows in their work. They are two of the most genuine, talented, individuals we know and they are amazing at what they do. Who they are is individuals far outweighs who they are as cinematographers. If you want to work with people who genuinely love what they do, hire them. They're the best. They have given us such a beautiful gift. One we can watch again and again for years to come.

life. We found them while looking for videographers who specialized in intimate weddings and had a very cinematic and romantic style to the films. My husband and I wanted something natural and effortless out of our wedding day and that's exactly what we got, plus more. We had a unique situation where we needed our film to be edited by the next day, as we were married in WA state then had to fly to Los Angeles the next day to have a reception with our family where we planned to share our film so they can feel included in the biggest weekend of our lives. We were married on a Saturday morning and early Sunday morning, our film was completed to perfection. Our parents even surprised us and recorded videos for us to see after our ceremony and they incorporated those videos into our wedding film. We are forever thankful for that. We, including our family, were all soooo amazed with the quality of work that was produced. The vision was truly unique and beautiful. It was romantic and really captured the perfection of our wedding day and the flashbacks to our story. By the end of the film, everyone was sniffling at the beauty of it all. I cannot imagine a better experience with Rafael and Pauahi. They were professional, friendly, artistic, patient, and understanding of our needs and wishes. The value is incredible--there is no price you can really pay for memories to last a lifetime, but we are so thrilled and beyond satisfied with the film that was created for us and for those we share it with. We highly recommend Amora Cinema to film your wedding day. Just look at the quality and beauty of their work and there is nothing more to be said! You will not think twice about your decision, we promise!

mories. We reached out via our Photographer who recommended them, and they gave us all the information up front that helped us make the decision. Rafael & Pauahi didn't pressure us to make a decision after first approaching them, and allowed us to respond in the coming days as worked out what kind of package we'd like (please keep in mind the wedding was 2 weeks out the first time we contacted them). After deciding, we added them to all of the email communications between our vendors to ensure they had the latest in schedules leading up to the wedding. This allowed them to work closely with our photographer, DJ, and more prior to the day of the wedding as needed. The day of the wedding was smooth, as Rafael & Pauahi arrived early and captured the story of the day. Once we received our short video from the wedding, we knew we had made the right choice. Thank you once again Rafael & Pauahi! - Lucy and Jacob

dding video. Before reading more of this review... seriously just stop and check out their videos and you'll see what I'm talking about..! The people in Amora are amazing videographers , but not only that, they are amazing people! They really desire to do the BEST in their work by really capturing the BEST of the people they are shooting. They don't try to artificially make a scene, but they capture the moments as they truly were. Just check out some of their work.. they are hands down best videographers in the area!

spending the entire day with them and shot at three different locations! They are very efficient and amazing at what they do, as they gave great direction without interfering with the natural chemistry between my fiancé and I. We were blown away by Rafael's editing skills and couldn't be happier with our engagement video! Their talent is unmatched and they were such a delight to work with - we feel blessed as to cross paths with them in our wedding videography search, as they are still brand new to the area, and weren't completely swamped with bookings yet. If you're looking for the highest quality work from high quality people, Amora Cinema is where it's at!!!

edding, they perfectly captured all the best memories! I would highly recommend Amora Cinema to everyone looking to capture their most treasured memories!

vestments we made for our wedding. When it came to filming our engagement video, it was so much fun! Rafael and Pauahi made the awkwardness of filming enjoyable and comfortable. We spent an entire evening filming but it simply felt like spending time with great friends and just hanging out. They both have a great gift with making their clients feel at ease around the camera and it was unreal to see the outcome of the engagement video. Once our wedding day rolled around, it was nice that we had filmed the engagement video because it took some tension off of being filmed since we knew what to expect. Even though we were being filmed pretty much the entire day, Rafael and Pauahi never made us feel bombarded by being filmed and did a great job being behind the scenes and capturing our wedding day Kodak moments. Rafael had a wonderful idea to play our engagement video during our reception and although I loved the idea, I knew we did not have the extra funds to rent out a projector. Rafael went out of his way to reach out to our reception and ask if they had a projector they could use to show our video and as luck would have it they did! Rafael set up the projector and provided us with one of the absolute best gifts on our wedding day. Not only did he show our beautiful engagement video, he completed a same-day edit of our wedding day! As I looked around the room I could just see the tears rolling from all our friends and family as our engagement video and wedding video unfolded "our story". Rafael did such an unbelievable job at showing our loved ones our love story and incorporating moments with our friends and family on our wedding day in the film. It was absolutely amazing and I still cannot believe he was able to edit and put together the film in such a short amount of time. We received so many compliments after the video was shown about how beautiful the film was and even more compliments when we shared our video with friends and family that could not attend our wedding. Rafael has definitely found his passion in life and it genuinely shows in his work. I can say without hesitation that our film was one of the highlights of our day and I am so blessed to have worked with such humble individuals that put their all into making our film something we will always remember. My biggest advice to all engaged couples is to set aside a budget for your wedding day to be filmed. Your wedding day is so busy and fast paced it is hard to remember and capture all of those treasured moments, but with a wedding day film you always have the option to relive your wedding day. My now husband was not immediately on board with the idea because we paid for our entire wedding ourselves and it was just another expense to add, but he was so happy with Rafaels service and after he saw the videos he agreed it was one of the best investments we made for the wedding. I highly, HIGHLY recommend Amora Cinema for your wedding day videography. Thank you so much Rafael and Pauahi and good luck to your bright future together!

missed a shot. He was very professional, on time, and kind. Our "preview video" alone left so many people in tears and he truly knows what he is doing. Now we get to relive our wedding for years to come-- probably the best wedding investment to date!! We highly recommend Amora Cinema to anybody looking for an amazing videographer!!!
