Films made with love and aloha
Aloha! I’m Shanyn, the face behind the lens and film creator at Portola Studios. I believe that all love is created equally, and I strive to catch every emotion and nuance of your wedding day in a way that allows you to remember it exactly as it was the first time. I love film's ability to capture more than just an image, but also a feeling. There is no other movie you will ever watch quite like your wedding film. Long after the toasts have finished, the sparklers have burned out, and you’ve hand written the millionth thank you note, your wedding film will preserve all of those beautiful moments and memories. A highlight reel of the most wonderful day of your life. A beautiful film tribute starring you and your partner.
My filming style is to be a fly on the wall. I am the quiet counterpart to your photographer who will generally run the show as far as organization and direction goes. My artistic approach lies in finding the unique, authentic moments, in between snapshots, where you’re swept up in excitement and emotion. I’ll catch the silly antics your groomsmen are up to while you’re getting portraits done, the adoring look your new husband gives you while you aren’t paying attention, and the ridiculous dance moves your dad breaks out on the dance floor. This day is all about you, your partner, and your love story. At Portola Studios, we will make every effort to ensure your video is everything you had hoped it would be, and more.
