Twin Fin Filmworks is a wedding videography company based out of Honolulu, Hawaii.

I started Twin Fin Filmworks because I love to create memories through film. Every Twin Fin film is as unique as the couple that inspired it. I believe my work is meaningful - capturing one of the best days of your life and getting to handcraft a short film for you.

A couple once described my work as like watching an indie movie... dreamy, nostalgic, and candid. I see each film as a piece of art. And I want you to have fun with it too! I continuously strive to create work that makes you (and me) feel really, really good.

Absolutely great experience

Sam’s is not an operation that merely lines up the guests and takes photos of you with all of them. He puts a lot of care into how people relate to each other and into making that apparent in the finished product. He is someone who will take seriously who you, your family, and your friends are, and will document your wedding in a way that reflects your relationship and your connection with your guests. If you choose Sam - which you should - you can be confident that you will receive photos taken for you and which have a rich texture that makes them more than just the chronicle of a one-night event. This is certainly how we feel every time we look at the photos. They get better as time passes, too. You will be very happy you chose Sam, believe me!

Sam is the best!

Twin Fin Filmworks provided exceptional videography services for our wedding day. Their communication was prompt and direct, yet personable throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly intentional, curative, and original. Sam, our videographer, was able to capture all the big and little moments - from the intimate ceremony to the rowdy dance floor. The ceremony footage he provided was amazing, allowing us relive those special, intimate scenes. We are thrilled with the final product of our highlight film and would highly recommend Twin Fin Filmworks to any couple looking for a talented, professional videography team to document their wedding day

Cinematic video with a relaxed vibe

We were lucky to have worked with Sam to capture our Oahu wedding at Lanikuhonua and couldn't be happier with the final films! Twin Fin is able to achieve a super unique style that captures the feeling of the day without ever coming across as cheesy. During our initial discussions with Sam, we discussed some of the things we loved most about Oahu and wanted on film, which include ocean blues, softly swaying palm trees, and bright florals. Sam took this into consideration when filmin and captured things beautifully with drone footage and perfect color grading.

After the wedding, I felt a little sad to have missed some of the moments with our live musician and reached out to Sam to see if he had any footage that caught the special songs I had requested. He ended up putting together special cut of our ceremony for us where the ukulele could be heard, and it is the part of our wedding content that makes me weep the most. So incredibly grateful to Sam for his talent, creativity and partnership!

Great experience with Sam at Paliku Gardens

Sam was very professional and made us feel like we were in good hands. We are a shy couple in front of the camera, but Sam was there to direct us and came out with some great videos. He also went above and beyond with his work and we highly recommend him!

Hire twin fin films!

Working with Samuel at Twin Fin Films was such a dream! I found him through a personal recommendation who also had nothing but great things to say about his work.

The initial communication process was very productive! I previously had a different videographer booked who completely ghosted me after I paid my deposit to them, so I was very up front about my communication expectations, especially because I was planning this wedding remotely. Samuel was very understanding and exceeded my expectations in all ways! He understood our vision of what we were wanting for our videos, adjusted his video package to include everything we wanted and nothing we weren't interested in.

The day of our wedding, he worked seamlessly with our photographers and made my groom and myself feel so comfortable even though we get shy in front of the camera. He was also so kind and fun to be around.

Our wedding video and teaser came rather quickly in comparison to others! We got our full video 3 months after our wedding and it was everything we wanted and more! The drone shots were beautiful, the compilation was stunning, and the editing was impeccable.

But the BIGGEST reason why I would 1000% recommend to hire Samuel is that I was a complete dummy and misplaced my USB with ALL of our raw footage on it. So I reached out to him and he was gracious enough to send us a replacement!! Quite truly a lifesaver.

If you are thinking about hiring Sam and his Twin Fin Films team, do it! You won't regret it!

Master at their craft

Sam and Sofia of Twin Fin Films did a beautiful job with our wedding video. They were extremely personable and we never felt awkward in front of the camera. During the pre-wedding shoot and the wedding day itself, nothing felt staged or contrived. When we got the wedding films back we were blown away. The editing was so beautiful. They captured the day so perfectly - not just in terms of the details but in terms of the atmosphere and vibe. We would highly recommend couples to work with Twin Fin Films - you will not regret it. Thank you so much Sam and Sofia!! You guys are the best.

Best Videographer Ever!

I am so beyond thankful to have found Sam to be our videographer for our destination wedding in Hawaii! After sending an inquiry, Sam was so quick to jump on a call with us to talk about what we were looking for and make sure our needs were met! As you can imagine, the wedding day was so hectic and never quite goes how you plan, but Sam was the one thing that was perfect and he rolled with all punches and created the most amazing wedding video we could have ever imagined! I watch the video probably two times a day and so thankful he captured our special day that we can relive for the rest of our lives! I can not recommend Sam enough!

Awesome to work with!

Twin Fin Filmworks was fantastic to work with! Sam and his team completely captured the overall essence of our wedding. We didn't opt for a first look before our wedding, so most of our couple shots took place during our cocktail hour. Sam was very proactive and purposeful with the shots he got during the small window of time he had to work with. We are blown away with how it turned out! We also really loved their approach during the ceremony and reception. They completely blended in and got incredible candid shots of not only us, but also all of our guests. So many of our guests said they didn't even realize we had a videographer. This was really important to us as we didn't want the wedding to feel like a giant production. It was also great for me being a bit camera shy. The video turned out dreamy and magical and absolutely perfect. If we ever need a videographer again in HI, we will definitely be using Twin Fin Filmworks!

Dreamy videos captured organically

Sam delivered us a wonderful wedding video and he was so easy to work with! In particular, we loved the music choices and dreamy shots he featured in the videos. His style leans towards slow artistic shots that feature small details and moments. But best of all, Sam was amazing to work with - going above and beyond to deliver additional camera angles, drone footage, exceptionally crisp audio, and some raw footage we requested. We really enjoyed his laid back style and appreciated how cohesively he worked with us and also with our photographer. Your wedding day goes by so quickly that it’s a huge win to have your videographer be respectful of your time.

Perfect for any camera-shy lovers


If you went through the “friends first then lovers” pipeline like we did, then Sam is the choice for you. Your video will be full of you + your partner laughing, stealing kisses, inside jokes, and of course beautiful shots of your wedding and guests.

What I love about Sam’s work: 1) music choice 2) all the drone shots 3) the perfect amount of romance.

Sam was incredibly professional and attentive, listening to all of my requests. He has a keen eye for detail and was able to capture all of the important moments in a way that truly captured our essence as a couple.

He works great with those who consider themselves camera-shy and aren’t used to having the spotlight in them.

He is not very active on social media so you’ll need to check his website for past videos.

Would def book again!
