About Us
The One Film Co.
The One Film Co., based in Cape Town, is where love stories meet the art of filmmaking. Founded by Ru, who has been in the film, videography, and photography game since 2018, our focus is on capturing the real, raw moments that make weddings unforgettable. With a background in commercial work, including collaborations with brands, athletes, and musicians, Ru’s journey into wedding filmmaking was sparked by his first gig as a second shooter in 2019. That experience—full of emotions, anticipation, and love—left him hooked on capturing the fleeting, yet endlessly precious moments that weddings are all about. Ru’s training under the world-renowned stock photographer Yuri Arcurs shaped his eye for composition, lighting, and the kind of artistic motivation that elevates every shot. This deep understanding, combined with his love for romance, allows The One Film Co. to produce wedding films that couples will cherish for years to come.
We’re not here to dazzle you with flashy edits or over-the-top productions. Our aim is to be in the right place at the right time, capturing the authentic moments that define your day. Then, we weave those moments into a cinematic film that stands the test of time. Whether you’re camera-shy or ready to shine, we work with you to create something true to who you are, without invading your space on such a special day. And now, we’re excited to introduce Anthony, our new Co-owner and face of The One Film Co. Anthony brings a unique perspective as a young pastor with a deep passion for filmmaking. His gentle, authentic energy is perfect for capturing the love stories that unfold on a wedding day. Together, Ru and Anthony are committed to creating films that are not just a reflection of your wedding day, but a timeless keepsake you’ll cherish forever.
Meet Anthony
The New Face of The one Film Co.
Hi, I’m Anthony Wayne Steel, and I’m deeply passionate about capturing weddings because of the meaningful connection they represent between two people. Weddings are a celebration of love, commitment, and unity—a reflection of the powerful bond that forms when two individuals come together to share their lives.
What makes weddings so special to me is the symbolism of two people becoming one, forming a partnership built on love, trust, and mutual respect. Whether you see marriage as a spiritual journey or simply a personal commitment, it is an intimate experience that deserves to be beautifully captured and remembered.
As a filmmaker, I’m fascinated by the artistry involved in storytelling through visuals. From the intentionality behind every shot—whether it’s a close-up to capture an emotional moment or a wide shot to convey the grandeur of the day—to the pacing and rhythm of the editing, my goal is to create a wedding film that reflects the unique essence of your love story.
I also believe in approaching every wedding with care, not only to document the special moments but to celebrate the beauty of the journey. My passion for filmmaking goes hand in hand with my love for bringing people’s stories to life. It’s about crafting something that will last forever—capturing the essence of your day in a way that feels authentic and timeless.
Thank you for considering me to be part of your journey. I look forward to making your special day even more memorable through the art of storytelling.
