I have over ten years of videography, photography, and content creation experience.
It may not surprise you to learn that I am passionate about the art and craft of photography and filmmaking. You will find me frequently attending my local cinema to watch the latest Hollywood movie or indie film. Though I'll happily enjoy Netflix and HBO any night of the week. I'm also really into 'the gear': the cameras, lenses, and tools of the trade, all the things needed to get that gorgeous shot.
Unlike some of the larger service providers out there, I don't outsource the creative work. I handle the email and phone line. On the day of your wedding, I'm out there behind the camera. Afterwards, I'm in the studio doing the editing, crafting you what I know will be a beautiful wedding photo gallery or video.
A little about me
I'm Gonzalo,
Hello,
I'm a visual storyteller for loved-up souls
What truly inspires me is the unique narrative that each couple weaves - the distinctive love that binds them together. I find joy in translating these authentic emotions into timeless visual stories that will be cherished for generations to come. From the tender whispers to the exuberant celebrations, every frame is a testament to the love that defines your special day.
"It's the genuine, unscripted moments, the shared laughter, and the subtle glances that fuel my passion for wedding photography and videography."
Cinema, filmmaking, and storytelling serve as profound motivators in my approach to wedding photography and videography. Drawing inspiration from the artistry of cinematic storytelling, I see each wedding as a unique narrative waiting to be unfolded. The power of cinema lies in its ability to capture not just events but the emotions, the nuances, and the unspoken moments that define a story. In my work, I strive to emulate this cinematic quality, transforming each wedding into a visual masterpiece.
Cinema inspires me to push the boundaries of traditional wedding documentation, urging me to experiment with angles, lighting, and visual aesthetics to create a truly cinematic experience. The goal is not just to capture moments but to evoke emotions, transporting couples back to the beauty and magic of their special day.
“Every wedding, every shoot, I see the world through a whole new lens. Your story will be different from the last, and this ignites my passion all over again.”
Art has no rules, just the desire to transcend the ordinary.
The service I provide is the same that I would like to receive on my wedding day: communication, creativity, and commitment are the values that underpin my service.
I practice effective communication with my couples, ensuring I understand their needs and expectations, but that they also understand what I need from them too. I strive to create a collaborative and communicative journey, where clients feel empowered to articulate their desires and trust that their vision is being heard. This commitment to effective communication not only facilitates a smooth and stress-free experience but also results in a final product that resonates authentically with the couple's story
While I practice documentary-style photography and videography throughout your wedding day, I also embrace a creative and artistic lens. Sometimes this is a subtle approach, such as composition, lighting, or colour grading. Other times it can be more explicit, like unique angles, long exposures, or silhouettes. Art has no rules, just the desire to transcend the ordinary. I strive to provide my clients with a visual legacy that not only mirrors the authenticity of their celebration but also adds an element of enchantment, making their wedding memories truly unforgettable.
Commitment is the unwavering cornerstone that underpins every aspect of my work. It goes beyond the click of a camera or the recording of a moment; I am committed to investing the time and effort into truly making your wedding a special day. I not only want to be proud of the work I do, but I want all my couple's to burst with happiness with the photos and videos I deliver. My commitment is to capturing your unique love and presenting a collection of images that will be cherished for a lifetime.
"Rain, hail or shine, I won’t miss a beat."
To best serve my clients, I go above and beyond the traditional role of a photographer and videographer. I become a storyteller, an observer, and a trusted friend, ensuring that every detail is meticulously captured. My goal is not just to provide you with stunning visuals but to craft a visual narrative that mirrors the depth of your emotions.
I am dedicated to making your experience enjoyable and stress-free, allowing you to focus on the joy of the moment. I recognise that being in front of the camera can be a daunting experience for some, and my approach is centred around making you feel at ease. I strive to build a connection with my clients, fostering an atmosphere of trust and comfort. This connection is the secret ingredient that allows me to capture the most authentic and beautiful moments, as you relax and simply enjoy the magic of the day.
Through a blend of creativity, technical expertise, and a genuine passion for storytelling, I promise to deliver a collection of images and videos that encapsulate the essence of your love story. Your satisfaction is my priority, and I am committed to exceeding your expectations, ensuring that you not only love the photos but also relive the magic of your wedding day with each glance.
