How We Work in Placencia

Your wedding location’s relaxing ambience paired with our photography style make for a well-designed wedding experience. With the use of fast lens and creative lighting, your big day will be photographed with a documentary-slash-photojournalistic approach.

Katharine & Charlie’s wedding ceremony was photographed at Naïa, Placencia. They wanted their priceless moments, especially their emotional responses during the ceremony, clearly captured.
Rachel & Orlin’s wedding ceremony was captured at Tipsy Tuna, Placencia. They wanted every genuine and real moment, especially their first look, captured as candidly as possible. So they chose to have that particular moment in the presence of family and friends as they met at the beachfront to exchange vows.
Our Style, Your Wedding

We’ll all be at the right place at the right time. Each of your photos will capture an emotion, tell a story or portray a mood or feeling. And you, your partner, and your guests will be able to bond, communicate, laugh, love and be yourselves – all uninterrupted.
