We are Emma and David, a couple from The Hague. What began as making spontaneous wedding films for friends and family with two iPhones, lots of good spirit, and zero budget has grown into Opal Films: our company dedicated to capturing weddings in an energetic, spontaneous, and authentic way.
No assembly line work, but craftsmanship, made with love.
Our approach
We like it spontaneous and authentic: no rehearsals, no acting, but real people with genuine emotions—and just one chance to capture your day. It really feels like a privilege to do this for you and we love to get to tell in its entirety. We love to capture the spirit of the day as it really is, and to turn that into a film that you can be proud of in many years to come.
On the day itself, we like to blend in with your guests, documenting the preparations and the entire celebration from start to finish. We also love to be there on the dancefloor —because that’s often where the magic happens! grandma dancing with your friends, children running around, that one guest who had just a little too much to drink.
Since so much will be happening on the day itself, we make sure to capture the moments around you that you might miss in the heat of the moment. That’s why we work dynamically, mostly handheld, immersing ourselves in your wedding day without being too prominent.
Our goal is for you to watch your film and think: “That was exactly how it was!”
