Working with Luis
What it’s like to work with Luis
From our first conversation to the moment you unwrap your finished album, I keep the process clear, calm, and joy-filled, so you can focus on what matters: each other.
1. Listen & Learn
We start with a relaxed call where I get to know your story, style, and priorities. Whether you’re planning a mountain elopement or a 300-guest soirée, I tailor coverage to fit your vision and timeline.
2. Plan & Prepare
You’ll receive a custom photo timeline, vendor tips, and a quick questionnaire that ensures every must-have moment (and person) is on my radar. Need guidance? I’m an email or FaceTime away.
3. Capture with Care
On the day, I blend documentary observation with gentle direction. Expect candid laughter, artful portraits, and zero awkward posing, just natural, flattering guidance that lets you stay present.
4. Curate & Deliver
Within a week, a sneak-peek gallery lands in your inbox. The full, hand-edited collection follows soon after, delivered in a private online gallery with unlimited downloads and print-shop access.
5. Preserve & Relive
Choose from heirloom albums and museum-grade prints designed to outlast every Pinterest trend. I’ll handle layout, retouching, and ordering, so your memories are ready to pass down for generations.
My promise: thoughtful communication, effortless guidance, and images that feel exactly like your day—only better. Ready to make some magic? Let’s chat.

FAQ
How do we book you for the wedding?
To book your wedding, we begin by confirming the key details of your day, including the location, coverage time needed, whether any venue insurance is required, and the number of photographers or videographers needed. Once everything is outlined, I provide a final custom quote. Your date is then secured with a 50% retainer, and the remaining balance for larger weddings is due 30 days before the event, with final payment due no later than the wedding day. Zelle is always preferred for payment.
Do you travel for destination weddings?
Absolutely. I photograph weddings across the U.S. and abroad. Travel within the NYC metro area is included; for farther locations, I’ll create a custom travel quote covering airfare, lodging, and minimal per-diem expenses.
How do you handle family photos on the wedding day?
We build a streamlined shot list together before the wedding, grouping relatives logically to keep things efficient. On the day, I’ll guide everyone with clear, friendly direction—so we capture every must-have portrait in about 20–30 minutes and get you back to the celebration.
Do you offer engagement sessions?
Yes! A complimentary engagement session is included with my Classic and Signature collections. It’s a relaxed, one-hour shoot at a location meaningful to you—perfect for save-the-dates and for getting comfortable in front of the camera before the big day.
