About this vendor

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.

Book Twin Fin!

Sam was incredible to work with. He understood our vision and was really flexible and understanding of our venue limitations. It was very easy to communicate with Sam leading up to the wedding and on the day of he seamlessly fit into our day - it was like one of our friends was there with us vs a vendor. We wanted a video to help us relive the day and Sam gave us exactly that. It was especially great for our family who could not travel for the wedding, watching what Sam created helped them still feel really included in our special day. I would highly recommend Twin Fin!

Flexible and Understanding, Beautiful Work

First of all, Sam's work is gorgeous. It's light, pretty, and memorable. It has that fuzzy feeling that you want when you're looking back at memories. Second, Sam was incredibly flexible and understanding. Our wedding occurred during the first wave of Kona Low storms, and we had some financial issues that were unforeseen. Without a beat, Sam gave us options that worked for our situation and we're so happy for it. Third, the moments he provided in the highlight video were really special. He has an eye for what sticks out and will make the biggest impact.

Timeless Wedding Video

From our first conversation with Sam at Twin Fin Filmworks, we knew we had found the right videographer for our wedding. He was understanding about our budget and worked with us on a payment plan that made everything possible, even though we booked him last minute. What impressed us most was how he captured our day—nothing felt staged or scripted, just real moments happening naturally as he blended into the background. Sam was thoughtful and considerate throughout, making us feel completely at ease while he filmed. The final video is absolutely stunning and feels so personal to us, like nothing we could have imagined. We're grateful for Sam's warmth and professionalism, and we'd recommend Twin Fin Filmworks to any couple looking for videography that's both timeless and truly theirs.

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!
