Dear Sophie
Dear Sophie is one of those rare filmmakers who steps into a wedding day not to direct it, but to feel it. Her work is rooted in emotion, truth, and an almost poetic sensitivity to the unspoken — the nervous laughter, the small gestures, the imperfect beauty that reveals who people really are. As she shares, “I’m a wedding filmmaker drawn to the raw, unfiltered humanness that unfolds on a wedding day.”
What draws Sophie in most is the intimacy of the wedding day — the privilege of being invited into a moment that’s both vulnerable and joyful. “I hope my films let everyone feel what that day was truly like, not just see it,” she says. Her connection with clients starts long before the camera turns on. She takes time to understand what matters to them — their dynamics, their energy, the emotional heartbeat of their relationship. On the wedding day, she blends in quietly, letting real moments guide her lens.
Amari Films
Amari Films, led by the wonderfully genuine and endlessly inspired Lotte Schouten, has become one of the Netherlands’ most beloved names in wedding videography. Based in Gouda and filming across Europe, her work stands out for its quiet elegance, refined artistry, and the kind of romance that feels both modern and timeless. She describes her style as “timeless and editorial, with a focus on art and romance,” and every film she creates feels like a beautifully composed love letter.
Her approach is intentionally minimal: a Sony FX3, a simple lens setup, clean audio, and total presence. “Less is really more for me,” she says. By keeping her gear light, she remains fully immersed in the atmosphere — slipping into intimate moments, reading the energy of the room, and capturing emotion without disrupting it. Authenticity is her compass, and her couples feel it immediately.
Cinecrush
Cinecrush has spent nearly a decade shaping wedding memories into cinematic works of art, creating films that feel luxurious, emotional, and undeniably timeless. Led by filmmaker Esli, the brand is known for its signature soft light tones, refined aesthetic, and the kind of storytelling that gives every moment — from the grand emotions to the smallest gestures — a sense of meaning. Their philosophy is simple yet powerful: capture not only what the day looked like, but what it felt like.
With 9 years of experience, Cinecrush has developed a style that couples instantly recognize: elegant and refined, stylish and timeless, light and soft, authentic and pure. Their films are crafted with an editorial sensibility, but always anchored in emotion. Each wedding becomes a high-end narrative built with intention, beauty, and the couple's personal story at its core.
Maru Films
Maru Films is the creative universe of Remi and Pui-Yuk, a husband-and-wife filmmaking duo whose work feels less like documentation and more like art. Based in the Netherlands and filming around the world, they’ve spent over a decade crafting emotional, cinematic wedding films that unfold with depth, intention, and a rare human touch. As they beautifully put it, “We built Maru Films to bring a more cinematic, editorial, and human approach to wedding videography, films that feel like memories you can step back into.”
Since 2012, they’ve refined a style that is instantly recognizable yet never repetitive. “We don’t believe in a single ‘look’ or formula,” they explain. Every couple, location, and story deserves a fresh lens and a distinct emotional tone. Some of their films lean into timeless elegance; others embrace spontaneous rawness or bold creative pacing. They allow the story to dictate the style, not the other way around.
Ali Inan
Ali Inan is a Netherlands-based wedding filmmaker whose work blends emotion, atmosphere, and an unmistakable sense of cinematic scale. His style carries a boldness that stands out immediately—grand entrances, sweeping drone visuals, rich cultural textures, and moments captured with a sensitivity that feels alive rather than posed.
His portfolio moves effortlessly through vibrant traditions, energetic dance floors, emotional family moments, and weddings where multiple cultures come together. He brings an intuitive understanding of how to preserve these layers—not just the visual beauty but the meaning behind them. There’s a sense of dynamism in his films, yet also warmth, tenderness, and the ability to highlight relationships in their most genuine form.
Choosing a wedding videographer is deeply personal — it’s about trusting someone with the way your love story will live on. The artists in this list bring a rare blend of intuition, creativity, and sensitivity to every celebration they film. Whether you’re exchanging vows in a historic Dutch city or somewhere far beyond, these filmmakers have the vision to turn your memories into something unforgettable. Let your heart pick the one who speaks your language, and your wedding film will become one of your favorite keepsakes.
