From almost nothing to a wedding studio: the story of a passion that refused to fade.
It all begins with JP. Passionate to the core, an image purist who looked at the world through his lens — not for fame or likes, but for the raw beauty of things. On his own, armed with creativity and quiet ambition, he films, creates and dreams.
One trip. Two friends. One bold idea. In Lanzarote, JP suggests creating a different kind of vlog together: authentic and alive. They cross the island, capture breathtaking images and stop on one of its striking black-sand beaches. A ritual takes shape: film, photograph, take it all in — then pack the equipment away, hearts light.
When they return, shock. JP's equipment has disappeared — stolen. In an instant, months of sacrifice, savings and dreams vanish. For JP, it is far more than a material loss; it is a genuine wound. He gives up. Passion, it seems, is not always enough when reality hits.
But his two friends have not forgotten what he taught them to see. Refusing to let the flame go out, they make a simple, decisive gesture: a small €200 camera and an entry-level drone. Almost nothing. Yet the greatest stories often begin with almost nothing.
A few weeks later, the three friends test the drone in a park — probably one of the worst flying machines ever built — and laugh until it hurts. Between two crashes and three fits of laughter, they have the conversation that changes everything: passion, projects and what they truly want to build.
‘What do we call it?’ They need a name that feels like them, something that evokes light, brilliance and the instant everything illuminates. ‘LUMOS!’ they say together, as if it were obvious. A nod to the spell that brings forth light, Lumos Production is born that day — not in an office or with investors, but in a park with a broken drone and an unshakeable belief.
Because we know better than most what it means to lose your equipment, we have since invested more than €30,000 in premium tools: cinema cameras, professional drones, high-end lenses, stabilisers and sound gear. Every wedding entrusted to us benefits from equipment worthy of your ambitions — and standards that never compromise on quality.
What began with €200 and a dream has become a fully fledged professional studio. Beyond the tools, however, this story is what makes Lumos: resilience, and a refusal to let an obstacle have the final word. We do more than film — we tell what matters.
