He said, “Standing on the grounds that my papa “Sonny” used to herd cattle, where my dad was raised and learned how to be a paniolo of his own, the mountains I would hunt as a young kid and the ocean where I spent most of my time surfing, diving and fishing… all that mana and beauty would not be complete without you in the center.”
A stunning wedding and reception on the ocean front lawn at the gorgeous Four Seasons Resort Maui set the stage for this incredible day with Geena & Trevor.
most wedding filmmakers shy away from conflict or even the idea of conflict, but we as filmmakers first, completely embrace it. Yes a wedding day is largely a joyous occasion, however, if the couple or family share the realness of life, the pain of life, the challenges, ups and downs, then — if the couple is OK with it — we will feature it like any good blockbuster move MUST.

Divna (from Macedonia) and Kerem (from Turkey) have been together for eight years. When most couples by then would have moved into a less “lovey-dovey” or “butterflies in your tummy” stage of their relationship, these two seemed to have preserved the moments reserved for young love affairs.

Couple: Jenna & Sergio
Ceremony Location: Merriman’s Kapalua

Lisa and Noel wanted to explore Maui all the while telling the story of how they met and became an item. Shot over 2 days, this is their tale.
Indeed, they stand on the shoulders of giants and understanding the responsibility they have to the rest of humanity, they love each other fully.
Hi Stephan: Thank you so much! I watch both the film and the shorter one and was CRYING! You did a such an amazing job and could not have asked for more.
The way this couple met is not something I encounter much anymore in this day and age of internet and dating apps. Without giving too much away, let’s just say that Konnie knows what she wants and doesn’t mess around. This film was delivered in stunning 4K!
Giada and Matteo were looking for a cinematic crew who showed a sensibility toward sculpting a movie of their love that was probably going to be a huge departure from other productions that crew has ever done.
