Film
Movement, sound, edit.
One of us films, following movement and recording sound. That includes what happens before a speech or after the vows. We switch roles when the situation calls for it.
Studio — Who we areOne photographs, one films.
Duyên. The fate that brings two people together.
That's roughly how the Vietnamese word translates, and it's how we understand our work: we come in once two people have already found each other, and keep what happens between them on that day. The red thread in our mark is that thought.
We both started in film. Today there are two of us at every wedding: one photographs, the other films, and we swap when the moment asks for it.
The two of us
Two cameras, one eye.
Stills
Light, composition, production.
The other takes care of the photographs: the light, the composition and when to take the picture.
How we workWe come from film.
Every frame
has intention.
You can tell from how we work. We check beforehand where the light will be in the afternoon. We don't move the table, but we do move the lamp. And we wait for things to happen instead of calling them.
BeforeWe get to know the place and your schedule. When possible, we visit beforehand.
LightFor portraits we find the light and give you time to settle into it.
WaitingDuring the ceremony and among your guests we wait for things to happen instead of calling them.
Our processBefore the day, on the day, after.
Three acts.
Act 01 — Before
Before the day
- A conversation, in Berlin or by video: schedule, places, who matters to you.
- If possible, we look at the venue beforehand, with the light at the right time of day.
- You get a list of what we need from you. It's short.
Act 02 — The day
On the day
- There are two of us, usually from getting ready. One photographs, the other films.
- We tell you where the light is good and give you time there. The rest we let run.
- The sound is recorded too: vows, speeches, music.
Act 03 — After
After the day
- Selection, colour, edit. First the pictures, then the film.
- You get a gallery to download and the film as a link, handed over in person.
- When exactly, we tell you when we talk, because it depends on the season.
Berlin / Europe
At home in Berlin. On the road wherever you marry.
We live in Berlin and work as a pair wherever your wedding takes us in Europe. Tell us the place so we can account for travel in your quote.
