We're partners in business and in life and we've been documenting love stories for amazing couples together since 2016. We believe in fostering a real friendship with our couples that enables us to break down those walls and capture genuine emotion throughout your wedding day. Ariel is your director, gently instructing and choreographing, while Alex is there providing comedic relief to bring out those authentic smiles. Together we'll capture all those belly laughs and those sweeter, calmer moments in between.

Ariel + Alex

About 

A creative artist with a studious background. Ariel was a scientist for several years, working with DNA, RNA, and viruses in various labs. As mentally fulfilling as researching was, Ariel craved creating genuine connections with those around. A curiosity for photography turned into a deep love for celebrating couples on one of their happiest days!

Our Approach

To be completely honest, we're not like all the rest.

A technical mind with an extroverted personality. Alex is an engineer by day and the best second shooter around. What started out as an excuse to see Ariel more often turned into an exciting way to meet couples and celebrate joyous occasions. He can't wait to bring the bad dad jokes and eat some cake!
