“I cannot even put into words what it was like to work with Hapa Films. Donovan went above and beyond to capture our wedding day. He was at the location early (the first one there) to set up his equipment, check audio, etc. He has such a warm and easy going personality. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to work with. Our film is more than we could have dreamed.”

Kitte & Anne

“Shots out to Hapa films for making our wedding day video magical. Donovan worked with us during the difficult times in Geyserville, the KINCADE fires in late October 2019. Through multiple venue changes, last minute texts, emails and phone calls his team was there with a smile on ready to work. You made our day even more special. We will be using HapaFilms for all of our events to come. Thank you infinity times.”
