Amar
We believe in the power of unconventional art when blended with idiosyncratic passion. Our mission is simple: to inspire and empower filmmakers to elevate their craft, infuse their work with authenticity, and create films that resonate deeply with the heart. Whether that’s a sappy film or an unapologetic banger. Transform your career by revolutionizing your craft.
In doing so, you forget that thing that makes you f*cking tick.
The thing that ignites a fire in you.
That thing that sets you apart from the thousands of other filmmakers out there.
“Amar” is not for everyone. Here’s the thing - in an industry that’s clouded with the hottest trends or what’s “in”, it’s easier than ever to just “ride the wave” and “hope that something sticks”..

Medellín’s lush green vibe sets the tone for a lux, ethereal level feel at one of the city’s top wedding venues. Styled by Andrés Cardona, Colombia’s premier luxury wedding planner - this shoot is the perfect contrast to the gritty street vibes of Comuna 13. A full-circle moment that blends elegance with edge.

Capture the raw energy of Comuna 13 - once gripped by groups loyal to Pablo Escobar - this urban neighborhood has transformed into a hub of street art, live performances, and bold graffiti that screams color. It’s a must-see in Medellín and the perfect backdrop for a “day-before” run-and-gun shoot with our couples.
