While reading below will offer you a great insight into our business and artistic philosophies, there a couple points of utmost importance that need to be considered up front. Our crew and our gear is all insured on set, so in the event of catastrophe - you're covered, your guests are covered, we're covered, and you're not liable for damages. The industry is wrought with would-be professionals who overlook the dire importance of insurance, so we are careful to make it clear that we have you covered. Our Certificate of Currency is always available upon request.
We also take your privacy very seriously, and we know for an absolute fact that some of our competitors do not. Please have a read of our Privacy Policy to better understand how carefully and respectfully we treat your private information. We will also draw up a personalised and unique contract for every couple, to make sure we're all on the same page - we won't advertise with your faces unless you give us permission!
Finally, before you take the time to read our in-depth breakdown of Studio Amori's philosophy, please rest assured that your data is protected! If something happens to your copy of your video, or to your prints, we will have the originals available for reprint. All you need to do is give us a call!
Going to the movies and going to a wedding are two events ultimately about the same thing. They're both about the shared experience of something real. They're both about taking something intangible and framing it through the lens in such a way that it becomes real. Movies are about all sorts of different things, but we can dilute them to a single abstraction: movies are about experiencing emotion. Weddings, of course, are also about experiencing emotion - but they are all about a single emotion: love.
This crossover is profoundly important to the philosophy of Studio Amori - because we create in the space between cinema and marriage. We create the convergence of the two things: we create Wedding Cinema.
We apply this philosophy - this belief in quality - uniformly across the range of products we offer. Our Photography is not about the number of photos we can deliver, but the objective quality and beauty of the images we do deliver. That's why we look at the relationship between digital and film, the relationships between different film stocks and colour, and the impact of the lens on the aesthetic of the final image.
We found that time separates a good photo from a bad one. Taking the time to make sure the shot is right, the frame is right, that the camera and the film and the lens and every single part of taking the photo is right - and you will see that in the photos. We make sure, like we do with our movies, that you get something you will not only love, but that will prove to you paid for the best.
We focus on Beauty across our products, which inspires a true relationship between them all. Our photos will be gorgeous across the board - but they'll be even better if you use our make-up artists. They use the best products - but that's to be expected. We only use make-up artists who understand how their product will be influenced by the light, how our cameras - both in motion and in still - will react to their work. They will make sure that the make-up is right, so that the photography and the cinematography is the absolute best it can be.
We don't take short cuts. We don't work in half measures. We don't provide video that looks like home-movies. We don't deliver stills that look the same as the photos your Uncle took on his expensive Nikon DSLR. We don't smother you in layers and layers of make-up.
