HAPfilm Photography Style

HAPfilm Photography is not your run-of-the-mill stuffy wedding photography service. We focus on cinematic portraiture, meaning that we incorporate movement and fashion-inspired posing and lighting into our work for a breathtaking experience and images like you’ve never seen before. Our creations are not mere photographs, but world-class art, blending traditional photography with creative photojournalism and modern fashion influences to create one-of-a-kind images that you and your loved ones will treasure.

Our team of talented photographer-storytellers at HAPfilm Photography exists to make luxury photography available to everyone. We created a style of photography that puts your story at center stage and allows us to capture your love reflected in your emotion, the environment, and the people you love the most who are here for you on the most important day of your lives.

Every single artist on the team at HAPfilm Photography is trained to be proficient in three different styles of photography. We guarantee our clients variety in styles and locations and shoot each wedding in all three styles. These are the three styles that we specialize in:

Cinematic

This is the signature MAPhoto style, which blends bursts of color with fashion-inspired lighting to unify you and your environment. Though this is the most difficult style to shoot, our team is trained to create at least one image in this style for each part of your wedding day, and the results are perfect as framed wall art for your home.

Photojournalistic

If you love seeing the emotion from your wedding day, you will resonate deeply with our second style, which we create by capturing emotional moments as they unfold before our eyes.

Traditional

As HAPfilm wedding photographers, we often shoot couples in well-lighted as well as not-well-lighted areas. Natural light is a hot topic among folks in the photography industry, and we are able to create this clean, airy, and light look for you even when the light is low. This timeless, classic form of photography will never go out of style.

The HapFilm Photography Philosophy

We believe that wedding portraiture ought to stand the test of time. In other words, your photos should not look cheesy in five to ten years. Our photos blend movement, lighting, and storytelling to create unique pieces of art for your album and your home. Even in darkened settings, for instance, an ancient cathedral, where there is no natural light, we know how to create just the right amount, playing with shadows to create visually stunning images.

Simply put, our goal is to provide our clients with a flawless photography experience from start to finish and match your creative vision to a tee.

As Auckland based wedding photographers, we’ve documented our couples in hundreds of gorgeous locations, from the from up north to South island. As HAPfilm photographers, we will follow you wherever you want to go, from Mission Bay beach pier at sunset to downtown Takapuna Beach.
