I am Gaetano Mallardo, the founder of Feelmage Films.
As an Italian wedding videographer based near the stunning Amalfi Coast, my passion for storytelling through moving images runs deep. Growing up, I was surrounded by movie cameras and the comforting sound of film rolling on an old projector.
My father, who shared this wonderful profession, passed down to me the art of capturing love stories.
My goal is to create wedding videos that are authentic, emotional, and perfectly reflect the unique personalities and styles of the couples I work with. I like to describe myself as a minimalist wedding videographer because my approach is natural and unobtrusive. I strive to capture the most special moments of the day as they unfold, without interfering in the flow of the event.
I believe a wedding video is a timeless keepsake—a treasure that couples can cherish for a lifetime and share with future generations. My mission is to craft videos that authentically convey the emotions of that day, ensuring the memories remain vivid and lasting.
Rock music, with its raw energy, emotion, and creativity, can inspire the way I approach capturing weddings. Just like in a rock performance, every wedding is a dynamic experience, filled with spontaneous moments, passion, and energy. I aim to capture these moments with a sense of authenticity, much like a rock song that conveys powerful emotions. The soundtrack of a wedding video can even incorporate rock music to highlight the excitement and depth of the celebration.
Modern art, with its focus on innovation, expression, and unique perspectives, influences how I visualize and frame shots. Weddings, like modern art, are full of diverse expressions, and my job as a videographer is to interpret those moments through a creative lens. I aim to present the wedding in an artistic way, emphasizing the beauty in every detail, whether through unusual angles, lighting, or visual storytelling. This creative approach allows me to transform the wedding day into a work of art, much like a modern piece that challenges conventions while still conveying deep emotion and meaning.
