Slatana Studio

Slatana Studio is the wedding film business of Slatana, a wedding videographer from Zurich who says she has more than 20 years of experience in the wedding industry and works with a team. The site says the studio produces wedding videos in Zurich and across Switzerland, with wedding photography available as an optional extra for couples who want everything from one source. The places it names are "Zürich | Luzern | Interlaken | Zermatt | Destination Weddings."

Who Slatana is

In her introduction, Slatana describes herself as a wedding videographer from Zurich with over 20 years in the wedding industry who, together with her team, accompanies couples "mit Ruhe, Feingefühl und einem Blick für echte Momente" (with calm, sensitivity and an eye for real moments). A second passage lower on the page mentions over 15 years of experience in film, editing and storytelling. Her stated aim is to record weddings as cinematic films that show not just how the day looked but how it felt, with the small, often overlooked moments (a nervous smile, a hug with family, wild dancing) becoming witnesses of the couple's love. She sums up her style as "modern, emotional & zeitlos, unaufdringlich gefilmt, ehrlich erzählt" (modern, emotional and timeless, filmed unobtrusively, told honestly).

The site states: "Über 327 Hochzeiten & 118 Elopements weltweit in den letzten 20 Jahren" (over 327 weddings and 118 elopements worldwide in the last 20 years). Slatana says she is a member of Fearless Photographers and that her wedding films and images have been published several times in the magazine "Hochzeit", in Swiss Wedding and in Mery's Couture Magazin, as well as on wedding blogs including Wezoree, Amber & Muse Fine Art Wedding Inspirations, Weddingbible and Boudoir Collective.

Venues and places

The site gives a clear sense of the settings the studio works in. It speaks of intimate elopements, destination weddings in the Swiss Alps, civil weddings in Zurich, and weddings at Schloss Rapperswil, the Hotel Château Gütsch in Lucerne, on a mountaintop at Villa Honegg and at the Hotel Dolder Grand. The featured films include two from Villa Honegg and one from Villa Michels in Andernach, Germany. The footer adds Rapperswil SG and St. Moritz to the list of places the team works.

For Zurich, the site describes six favorite locations for couple scenes: the old town and Lindenhof for city atmosphere and golden-hour light; the lake and Bürkliplatz for wide horizons and soft evening light; The Dolder Grand for sunset and a panoramic view over the city and lake; the Uetliberg for a sunset view, where the team says it plans arrival, light and a weather window with a Plan B; Rieterpark for quiet, timeless portraits; and the Prime Tower and Harderbrücke area for a modern, urban-industrial look.

The studio's journal carries a post dated 14 February 2026 about a horse wedding in Aarau, described as rustic and elegant, with an alternative cinematic cut focused on the couple, the horses, the details and the mood, filmed with calm camera moves, natural light and filmic color.

What the studio offers

Under "Warum Paare uns wählen?" (why couples choose us), the site lists what a booking brings: a team focused on wedding film with photography optional from one source; emotional reportage instead of posed shots; professional sound, editing and music; a drone and modern technology "wo erlaubt & sinnvoll" (where permitted and sensible); quick highlight reels with first impressions a few days after the wedding; and secure data storage with multiple backups and archiving.

Photography is offered as a complement or with established photo teams. The site says many couples choose both the video and professional wedding photography, and that on request the studio works with photo teams it knows well so that both fit together, with the photos made in the same style as the film. Beyond weddings, the studio makes selected brand and business videos, with a separate portfolio being built at businessfilm.ch.

What couples say

The testimonials are in German and English. One couple, signing J & M, writes that they are "überglücklich" (overjoyed) to have chosen Slatana, that she has the gift of catching "die natürlichen Momente" (the natural moments) and that her film tells a love story "die man sich 1000 Mal anschauen kann" (that you can watch 1000 times). They add that she takes time for the couple's ideas and gives tips to make the day even better. An English review calls her videos "like pieces of artwork" and the finished film "the video of our dreams." A third couple, who booked on a recommendation, says she was very professional from the first conversation and that the result is simply perfect. The site links to further reviews on Google.

Languages and booking

For couples from abroad, the languages are clearly stated: "Ich spreche Deutsch, Englisch, Französisch, Italienisch und Russisch" (I speak German, English, French, Italian and Russian). The site has an English version, reached through the ENG link in the menu.

The inquiry form asks for name, email, venue, estimated number of guests, how the couple found the studio and a message. Slatana adds that if couples get no answer within 24 hours, they should check their spam folder. The contact details are +41 78 681 14 74 and hello.slatana@gmail.com, and the imprint gives the business as Slatana Photography & Videography, Neuhofstr. 2, 8645 Jona.

What the site does not settle

The site publishes no prices and no packages; it invites couples to ask for a no-obligation quote. It does not say how long the full wedding film runs, how many hours of coverage a booking includes, or how long the full edit takes, only that highlight reels arrive within a few days. It does not say how many people the team sends to a wedding, or how travel to venues such as Zermatt or St. Moritz is charged. Drone use depends on local rules, and the site's own wording, where permitted and sensible, means couples should ask whether flying is possible at their venue.

Who it suits

Slatana Studio suits couples who want an emotional, cinematic film at a high-end Swiss venue, from the Dolder Grand to Villa Honegg, and couples planning an elopement in the Alps. Its stated languages suit international and multilingual families well. The caveats are the lack of published prices and the need to confirm film length, team size and travel costs in the quote.
