Melissa & Arturo

Hey there friends! We wanted to do a Friday intro since we have some new friends join.

We are Melissa & Arturo, an electrical engineer and tax consultant turned photography & films duo. We are dog parents to the sweetest German shepherd Corgi named Bella! No idea how that mix happened but she’s the cutest!

This month we celebrate 15 years together, dating and marriage. We never would have imagined being in this industry when we first started dating but we are here for it!

It's all about the lines!
We can help but get excited when we see lines, whether it be on a building or landscaping, etc. We just love to use them in our work!

What gives you the feels when you see it!

One of our favorite parts of a wedding is hearing about our brides engagement ring!

How our groom knew it was the perfect right for his bride
How it fits their personality
If there is anything special about the cut

Learning about the rings can show just how unique each couple is in their own way!

How are we already starting a new year?

Looking back on 2022, there were some goals we fell short of and some goals that we met with flying colors! We were surprised and so happy to accomplish a few much needed things this last year especially since 2021 threw us for a loop!

2023 felt like so far away and now that it’s here, we are excited to build and improve for ourselves, and our clients!

This month marks 5 years since we shot our first wedding! We shot our first wedding before we even started our business. Even before we had a full frame DSLR camera.

We had no idea that shooting that first wedding would lead us on this adventure of owning our own Wedding Photography & Films business. If someone had told us when we got married that we would be serving so many sweet couples, learn our craft from so many amazing mentors and friends, and traveling to so many beautiful locations…I don’t know what we would say!

While the journey hasn’t always been easy, it has been worth doing, and we are grateful for all of our experiences that our business has given us! Including all the couples and friends that we have made!
