“I love being a Hispanic wedding photographer because I am bilingual and it helps speaking English and Spanish. Especially, for my Latin couples that speak Spanish because I am able to speak to them and also understand the traditions of their weddings.”

We are extremely hard-working, resourceful, and imaginative (because we have had to be as immigrants). It was so important for me to give back to my culture and community and it’s proven to inspire and benefit my clients in such a special way.”

“Love to work with all my Hispanic wedding vendors. It's more of a family relationship when I work with them. We get to share our heritage and background to help our clients the best way. In many cases, our clients have family that flies over from their country. It's a day where they bring 1, 2, 3, or more Hispanic backgrounds in one night. As Latin/Hispanic vendors we get to bring the best experience for them. Each wedding brings a different vibe and traditional touch. It's more work on our part because of the research to learn about each heritage and background but at the end of the night, seeing the level of satisfaction from both families and the bride and groom, as vendors, it makes our night all worthwhile,”

“We are very dedicated and very giving. We have a lot of beautiful traditions. We just sometimes need and want to elevate our business to the next level, appreciate what it is like to protect our culture, and share it with others. I love helping couples to incorporate their culture with a modern twist, those small details are the ones that will make a wedding unique and meaningful. I'm very proud to be a Mexican Wedding Planner”

“My clients benefit from hiring me, a bilingual photographer who understands the importance of communicating with vendors, family, and guests the day of the wedding. If they choose to incorporate a Latin American tradition, they don’t have to take the time to explain them to me and they appreciate that. Couples already have a lot to plan for and I don’t want to be the wedding vendor who adds yet another thing on their plate to do.”

“Our company ethos is to celebrate inclusivity. Being based in Miami we often get to witness the beautiful traditions and culture of Latin America during our weddings. It’s helpful to understand the nuances of those traditions and to be a native Spanish speaker. Also, it’s so fun at weddings when they play the songs I grew up listening to! Oscar De Leon can always get the crowd going.”
