About Us
Our Love Story
Although originally from São Paulo, Brazil, Fernando called many places home, including Austria, Belgium, and Switzerland, before making his way to NYC to study photography at the School of Visual Arts. Hanna, on the other hand, only called one small town in the mountains of Colorado home until she also moved to NYC to study at the same university. It didn't take long for our paths to cross and thus began a love that has celebrated 13 happy years!
We got married in Central Park on a beautiful Spring day, and loved the wedding environment so much that we began photographing weddings soon after, starting our joint venture that brings together everything we adore about photography and life.
In 2024, we found ourselves ready to trade the busy city for a more quiet life in nature, so we made the move back to Hanna's home town of Paonia, Colorado. When not photographing weddings, you can find us spending time with our pup, hiking, mountain biking, gardening, soaking up the sun, and being with family.
OUR Approach
Fernando has a background in documentary and street photography, and at weddings, uses this style to capture the candid action in the environment as it naturally unfolds. Hanna has a background in fine-art photography, and loves to find the intimate details and special in-between moments. We cover all weddings together, combining our eyes and sensibilities as one, and employ our unique, fine-art approach and technical expertise to tell the unique story of every wedding and couple we photograph.
Having gone through the process of getting married, we know that the wedding day can sometimes feel overwhelming, especially when there are also cameras present. That is why we like to blend in and document the events of your day while interfering as little as possible. This allows space for the real, unscripted, fun and candid moments to happen and for you to be fully present with each other.

our process:
I. Book the date
Reach out to us with information about yourselves and your wedding date and we'll respond within 24 hours! If we're available on your date, we'll schedule an online video meet and greet so we can all get to know each other more and learn about your wedding day plans.
II. Meet in person
If you live in or are visiting Colorado, we'll meet up in person either to take your engagement photos or go on a coffee date (or both!). Getting to know you both is important to us so that on your wedding day, we can all be more relaxed and comfortable around each other, leading to a fun experience for all and better, more intimate photos.
III. Wedding day
This day is all about celebrating you as a couple and being with your friends and loved ones! We'll be there to capture your memories and can't wait to celebrate right along with you.
IV. Deliver memories
Within one week of your wedding, we send you a sneak peek of 20-30 photos. The full set of images will be sent via a private online gallery 5-8 weeks later.
Testimonials

“Hanna and Fernando were LOVELY and just what we needed for our tiny, low-key COVID wedding. They made us feel completely at ease while also making sure to get a variety of great shots. They struck a perfect balance between being friendly and professional. They also easily accommodated our request for some black & white shots on film, as well as taking many digital pictures (they even took a few polaroids of the day that we put up on the fridge and may never take down - we love them!)”
