la vie means life
Anything in life can be beautiful, interesting or meaningful. Our goal on your wedding day is to capture those aspects of life through strong compositions that create unique images showcasing your special moments.
You know how everyone has that friend that can fix things? Well that's me! I'm a girl with a plan and I'm not afraid to get in there. People don't realize how crazy a wedding day can get with the heightened emotions and coordinating the finely planned details. My strength is to take in the scene and dissect what's going on by playing with juxtapositions to create meaningful images. But enough fancy talk.
I'm a dog whisperer and proud #DogMom. Don't worry, I don't dress my dogs...all the time. Just for holiday photos ;) You'll always find me creating something with my hands or throwing random movie references into conversation not limited to anything Jim Carrey, Fight Club, or Princess Diaries. How about that for variety?

I’m the social butterfly who hates social media. Can I get an “Amen”? Yes I said butterfly and tough guys wear pink - moving on. I am most likely the one you’ll be talking to when you hit us up. As your main point of contact, brace yourself - the GIFs and memes are coming.
When I’m not photographing weddings I’m usually in Disney with Cat, my fiancé, out enjoying nature, or playing basketball. You’ll see my inner fangirl whenever I’m getting out-of-the-box portraits or conceptual photos. By the time your wedding ends I’ll probably have a few inside jokes with your guests, you will have seen plenty of my funny faces, and you’ll probably catch me at your dessert table because #SweetTooth.

Funny story. I was born in Boston, but lived my entire life in Venezuela, so Spanish is my first language ;) I've been working in the film industry for more than 10 years directing music videos, tv commercials, documentaries and short films for amazing artists, brands and people in USA, Venezuela, Colombia and the Caribbean Islands.
A few years ago I discovered how passionate I was about documenting weddings in a way that is full of personality and showcases the uniqueness of every couple.

They say perfect doesn’t exist; well I be damned if I didn’t at least try! There isn’t a fence I haven’t stood on, ugly furniture I haven’t moved, or tree I haven’t climbed to get the shot. They call me lil’ T. but I have a huge heart and nothing but passion to fuel this energized soul. As intense as that sounds, I have a soft side too. #hopelessromantic I live for the romance, but don’t worry, I can contain my tears during your adorable vows as my heart turns to mush.
Outside of photography, I hope for rainy days and love focus feature films. I’m slightly addicted to my Nespresso machine but even more obsessed with my cat Poe (for Edgar Allen Poe). Yes I’m a cat lover, but puppies get love too! #FurBabyLife

"I am soooo happy with my wedding photos! If you are just as awkward as me and not use to taking photos FEAR NOT! Jose will come to your rescue and make you feel comfortable. All of my guests and people that have seen the photos are in AWE!"
"Our pictures look like works of art and action shots instead of only portraits which was exactly what we were looking for. The pictures perfectly bring back all the memories and emotions and I could rant and rave about how they are the best in the business all day long!

"After talking to Jose, I knew this was the team we wanted at our wedding.We loved how much fun the whole team was - they were out on the dance floor, dancing while taking pictures/videos (my dad is still talking about how much he loved this)!
