Experience
Authentic moments, Artfully captured
The Approach
My approach is artful and authentic. I love to creatively collaborate with my clients to make your wedding photo dreams a reality.
Process
Image Delivery
My process is easygoing and natural. I want you to feel comfortable and carefree while we make the wedding photos of your imagination. From our first email until the gallery delivery I will guide you every step of the way.
Your entire wedding day will be meticulously edited and presented in a digital gallery to reminisce and share.
I am based out of Los Angeles, CA. I frequently photograph weddings all over Southern California, but I can travel anywhere in the world!
Both! I work as a hybrid photographer, seamlessly blending the realms of film and digital photography. Over the years, I've consistently captured moments using both formats in tandem. While I do utilize contemporary professional digital camera bodies, my artistic identity is firmly rooted in the distinctive aesthetics of film.
It usually depends on the time of year and how busy I am in any given season. I deliver an edited preview in 24-72 hours and my typical turnaround time for a fully edited gallery is around 8 weeks.
Instead of fixating on rigid poses, a skilled photographer should prioritize capturing genuine connections, making subtle adjustments as the narrative unfolds. Often, the most enchanting images arise spontaneously from those unplanned moments. I still offer direction for portraits but let the rest of the day unfold naturally.
As your photographer, my aim is to create a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere while we make beautiful photos you will treasure for a lifetime. I follow a laid-back and natural process, offering guidance and support at every stage to make the experience seamless for you.
My photographic style is artistic, modern, and romantic.
I approach each wedding with the personal touch as if a cherished family member is celebrating their special day. My commitment goes beyond a mere professional relationship—I offer every client an exceptional level of care and unwavering attention to artistic detail. This distinctive approach ensures that each moment captured reflects not only technical expertise but also a genuine connection and commitment to creating timeless memories.

"Fernando is an incredibly skilled, patient, and driven photographer.
Probably the most driven person I’ve ever met and that instilled a lot of confidence in us when we asked him to shoot our wedding. He did an amazing job in capturing all of the beautiful moments that came and went so quickly and we are so lucky to have those to look back on. He is such an attentive photographer with a great eye and really takes a lot pride in everything he creates from behind his lens. Fernando, thank you so much!”
"Fernando made me completely comfortable.
He accepted the challenge of taking photos in a chaotic train station with the same grace as the photos he took at an old Mission garden. With an eye for light and shadow play, he is wonderful at capturing fleeting, intimate moments that have a nostalgic and tad melancholic (but in a good way) feeling. Bravo!”
