wedding & elopement films in curaçao
Endless sunshine, turquoise waters, and colorful architecture, Curaçao is a Caribbean gem I’m lucky to call home.
Curaçao offers more than just white sandy beaches and turquoise waters — think colorful colonial streets, quiet coves, dramatic coastal cliffs, landhouses tucked away in lush green hills, and golden sunsets over the sea. Whether you imagine exchanging vows with your toes in the sand, or during an intimate celebration at a private villa — this island is made for unforgettable memories.
Living here means I know the best hidden spots, the perfect times for golden light, and the top local vendors to make your day (or days) effortlessly beautiful. With a calm, honest approach to storytelling, I’ll capture your celebration in a way that feels natural, meaningful, and truly yours.

I believe your wedding day should unfold naturally, without awkward poses or distractions. I’m there to catch the real moments that make your day uniquely yours.
Hi, I’m Ellen
Dutch destination wedding & elopement filmmaker based on Curaçao.
If you had asked me when I was younger, I probably wouldn’t have expected to become a wedding videographer – but here I am. Because after just one wedding, I was completely sold! The unexpected moments, the real emotions, the magic of it all.
I love working with couples who care more about the experience than perfection — the ones who embrace the wind in their hair and mud on their boots because it’s all part of the story.
If that sounds like you, I can’t wait to hear your dreams, show you some of my favorite spots, and create something truly unforgettable together.
MY APPROACH
My filming style is effortless, natural and all about keeping things real. No giant flashy lights, or over-the-top gear, just me blending into the background so you can focus on what matters most: being present with your loved ones.
I focus on those genuine, unplanned moments: the quiet smile from your partner during the vows, the laughter shared with your best friends over a toast, or the proud look on your parents’ faces. My goal is to create a timeless film that doesn’t just show what happened, but makes you feel everything all over again, every time you watch it.
The goal? Capture the honest moments without interrupting the natural flow of your day.
And no, you don’t have to be a pro in front of the camera. I keep things laid-back and real — no awkward poses or big productions. You’ll forget I’m even there.
“The film is AMAZING!! Everything flows beautifully. Ellen perfectly captured how the day unfolded. The vows under the video make it so emotional that every time we watch it, we’re deeply moved all over again.”

What to expect
1 | Get in touch
Fill out the contact form and I’ll reply within 48 hours with all the details and a pricing guide tailored to your needs.
2 | Getting to know each other
Let’s meet — virtually, of course! Whether it’s over coffee or cava, this is your chance to chat about your plans, learn about my approach and see if we’re the perfect fit. I’ll also get to know more about your story, your vision, and what truly matters to you.
If we both feel a yes, I’ll send over a detailed contract with everything we discussed. Once you’re ready to go ahead, a signed contract and 50% retainer will officially lock your in your date.
3 | The booking
It’s official! I’m all yours for your special day(s). We are in touch along the way to plan everything and make sure it all unfolds just the way you envision it. 6–8 weeks before your wedding, we’ll go over all the details once more — thoroughly and with care.
This final check-in is all about making sure everything is aligned: the timeline, the moments you don’t want me to miss, your plans, your preferences, and any last-minute updates. It’s also a great moment to reconnect and get excited together for what’s to come!
4 | Your big day(s)
The moment has arrived! My job is to blend in, capturing every moment naturally and authentically. Whether it’s heartfelt vows or the quiet moments in between, I’ll be there documenting it all.
My approach is discreet and laid-back; you won’t even notice I’m filming most of the time. No staged poses, no retakes — just the real magic of your wedding day. Whether I’m dancing on the sidelines with your friends or quietly observing from the background, I adapt to the vibe of your celebration. I’m here to ensure you feel 100% comfortable and can fully immerse yourself in the experience.
5 | Relive the magic
Within 10 days after your wedding, I’ll send you a sneak peek — a little teaser to keep the excitement going. The full wedding film will be ready within 8 weeks. Grab some popcorn (or champagne) and enjoy it all over again, whenever you want.
FAQ
My wedding plans differ from your packages. Can you still film it?
I love working with couples who are breaking away from the standard. Feel free to send me a message! Depending on what my schedule allows, we’ll figure out what’s possible and see how we can make it work.
Are travel and accommodation included in the starting prices?
For weddings and elopements on Curaçao, there are no additional travel or accommodation costs — this island is my home base. But if you’re planning a helicopter ride or a private island stay… just save me a seat and a bed.
Do you have a drone?
Yes, and I love flying it! Of course, I only use it when the location and weather conditions allow. As always, safety comes first!
What if you’re sick on the big day?
I’ve never had to miss a wedding due to illness (knock on wood!), but if it ever happens, I have a strong network of videographers who can step in for me. If possible, I will still edit your film to ensure you receive the same style and quality.
Can we have the raw files?
No, I don’t provide raw footage. My focus is on delivering a carefully crafted, high-quality film.
Do you also take photos?
No, I focus purely on videography. However, I collaborate with talented photographers who deliver amazing work. I’d be happy to recommend someone to you!
Do you travel for weddings and elopements?
YES! PLEASE! Traveling is one of my biggest passions, and I love discovering new places. Let me know where your dream wedding is, and I’ll be there!
What is an intimate wedding?
An intimate wedding is a small-scale celebration, focussing on personal moments with friends and family, so you can create lasting memories with the people wo matter most to you. I capture intimate weddings up to approximately 60 guests.
Can our family and friends be part of the elopement?
Of course! I capture elopements with up to 8 guests. If you’re planning a larger celebration, my intimate wedding package might be a better fit.What is an intimate wedding?
Can we add extra hours on the day itself?
If you book a full-day package or longer, you won’t have to worry about extra hours—I’m there to capture your full story. Whether it takes an hour more or not, I’ll be there for the moments that matter.
