Before stepping into the world of wedding videography, Laura and Rafa led lives that looked very different.
“We both studied business administration and marketing,” they share. “We were working in big corporations. But one day, we realized that path wasn’t meant for us.”
It was a shared decision—and a leap of faith—that brought them to where they are today. The creative calling pulled them behind the lens, and what started as a passion project became a lifelong pursuit.
As self-taught artists, they committed fully to their craft, later enrolling in a master’s program in cinematography to elevate their skills. That blend of curiosity, dedication, and artistic vision became the cornerstone of Soul Weddings.
What sets Soul Weddings apart is their deeply intentional approach to storytelling. Each film is a tailored tribute to the couple at the center of it all.
“If we had to define our style,” they explain, “we’d say it’s a mix of documentary, narrative, and cinematic storytelling—100% personalized and movie-inspired.”
But their process isn’t about following trends or sticking to one formula. “Every couple and every wedding is unique. After getting to know the couple, we immerse ourselves in their story, their music preferences, the rhythm of their day.”
Each frame, each soundbite, and each transition is curated to reflect the personalities and emotions of the couple. It’s a love letter in motion.
To translate memories into cinematic keepsakes, Soul Weddings uses an intentional mix of gear—modern and nostalgic.
“We use the latest Sony cameras, drones, vintage handycams, and Super 8,” they share. This unique combination gives their films both clarity and charm—crisp visuals with touches of retro romance.
It’s a visual language that feels timeless yet fresh, authentic yet elevated.
The energy of a wedding day is electric—and for Laura and Rafa, that’s what they cherish most.
From candid laughter to heartfelt speeches, they focus on the organic magic that unfolds throughout the celebration. Their films don’t just show the day—they feel like the day.
Laura and Rafa believe that the strongest wedding films are built on connection.
“We always try to meet our couples at least once before the wedding,” they explain. “We learn about their love story, their favorite video styles, and even the movies they love.”
That foundation of trust is what allows them to create something that feels personal and natural.
“Many of our clients trust our vision completely,” they add. “And the real magic happens during the editing process—where their personalities and unique style truly come to life.”
When it comes to wedding planning, Soul Weddings has one piece of advice that stands out:
“When choosing your perfect videographer, don’t focus only on the flashy trailers—the best way to assess their quality is by watching their full-length videos.”
They also encourage couples to keep things true to themselves: “Get inspired by other weddings, but stay true to your own style and preferences.”
And when the big day comes? “Having an MC is a game-changer. They help guide your guests and ensure every moment flows seamlessly.”
Looking back on their journey, Laura and Rafa reflect on the path they carved—and the patience it required.
“Believe in yourself. Don’t worry about what others are doing—trust your instincts. The beginning may be slow, but stay patient and persistent, and you’ll find your own path.”
Their story is proof that creative intuition—paired with hard work—can lead to something extraordinary.
Soul Weddings is based in Mallorca, but their lens has captured love stories far and wide.
“Yes, we do destination weddings,” they say. “Our favorite destination is Bali.”
With its ethereal landscapes and spiritual atmosphere, Bali has become a dream backdrop for many of their couples—and a favorite canvas for their artistry.
At the heart of Soul Weddings is a genuine love for love itself. With a unique ability to blend real emotion with cinematic flair, Laura and Rafa continue to create wedding films that don’t just preserve memories—they bring them to life again and again.
Every couple has a story. And through the lens of Soul Weddings, that story becomes a film worth watching forever.
