Wedding Films for the Bold, the Artful, and the Wildly in Love.

We believe wedding films should feel as alive as the people in them. Sometimes cinematic and soulful. Sometimes playful and wonderfully chaotic. Always honest, artful, and unmistakably you.

Hi there! We're Rafael & Pauahi, a husband+wife filmmaking duo. We're storytellers at heart, drawn to the wildly joyful, deeply emotional, and beautifully unscripted moments that make every love story unique. With over a decade of experience & 100s of couples served, we create wedding films that feel as unforgettable as the day itself.

FEATURED WEDDING FILMS

MALLORY & McLEAN

A sun-drenched winery wedding in the heart of Santa Ynez Valley, overflowing with style, elegance, and main character energy from every angle. With beautifully refined design and a crowd that brought effortless cool, this film captured the kind of wedding day that feels cinematic from start to finish, and went on to become a Film of the Year finalist at the Wedding Film Awards.

⚲ SUNSTONE WINERY, CA

SHELISE & JONATHAN

Shelise and Jonathan had such vision and creativity which they poured into every detail of their wedding day. From producing their own proposal short film, which premiered at the Hollywood Theater as the prelude to the ceremony, to styling the entire celebration with a stunning 1920s flair, the day felt like stepping into another era. A wildly creative, transcendent celebration that went on to become a Themed Wedding finalist at the Wedding Film Awards.

“WOW!! I am beyond blown away with Amora Cinema's work!! I knew it would be good, but our wedding video is NEXT LEVEL! We knew that we did not want the cookie cutter wedding video and that we wanted ours to be a little more unique and fun and DANG did they deliver….I am so beyond thankful for both of them. Do yourself a favor and book amora cinema right now - you won't regret it.”

MEET YOUR FILMMAKERS!

With more than ten years in the wedding industry, hundreds of weddings filmed, and national awards earned along the way, Rafael and Pauahi bring both deep experience and a deeply personal approach to every celebration they document. Rafael is the cinematographer behind the lens, drawn to movement, light, atmosphere, and honest human moments. Pauahi is the mastermind in the editing room, shaping each story with emotion, rhythm, and an intuitive sense for what makes a film feel alive.

Together, they create wedding films that are cinematic, artful, and entirely reflective of the couple at the center of it all.

They have never believed in formulaic wedding films. Each story is approached with fresh eyes and crafted with its own rhythm, tone, and feeling… a true reflection of the couples in them.
