Are they able to find unique beauty at different destinations both indoors and outdoors? Why?
As a photographer, we see location in a different way. The same destination will look completely different in a different season, time of the day, month, or even at different venues in your photos. Hence it is important to check the variety in the portfolio of a destination wedding photographer.

Our Photography Styles
We at Happy Films can break our style into three different categories as a destination wedding photographer.
CINEMATIC
By mastering external light sources such as flash, we created our own unique style that is colorful and flashy in an elegant way while putting our client in the natural environment. These techniques combined with our posing guides, allow us to create unique images regardless of the locations to separate us from the competition.
PHOTOJOURNALISTIC
A wedding is all about capturing emotions. Capturing these moments is a skill that takes time to adapt to make everyone comfortable around you. As much as we love seeing moments happen in real-time, photojournalism is the most important skill that a wedding photographer has.
TIMELESS OR CLASSIC
Every wedding will have moments that need to happen without interruptions. It’s the natural you in your environment and it will never go out of style. We know when to step in and when to let it happen to create those looks. Mind well, we still get the best light while doing so to create that traditional style because it’s timeless.
Our Portfolio and a little about us.
We are a team of passionate destination wedding photographers, specializing in capturing some of the most beautiful moments on your big day. Whether you’re getting married in a sprawling estate or a beachside location, we’ll be there to capture all the details — from the happy tears to the laughter and all the love in between.
We usually film with a crew of 5-6 people. Two photographers and two cinematographers along with a production manager/helper. We can also include an aerial drone operator. The whole crew works together as a team with different skills and a cameraman specializing in different focal lengths such as aerial, time-lapse, candids, etc.
For larger-scale weddings, we highly recommend to do a reduction in the size of the crew. Again, we always explain this over our discovery call of how many members of the team we need to produce high-quality outputs.
There are times when having a small team helps too! For intimate destination weddings, a crew of 4 people is enough. This allows easier moving non-obstructive footage and photos during the festivities of the wedding. This also creates a close bonding between the leaders of the crews and needs less coordination throughout the day. And of course, it comes with a reduction in cost.
We use our skill and expertise to capture moments in ways that will stay with you for a lifetime. Our portfolio is brimming with images of couples in captivating locations around the world. No matter what your vision is, we can be trusted to make it come to life.
