MEET THE HUMAN BEHIND THE LENS

Hey hey! Ignacio here. For me, photography is more than taking pictures, it is about capturing a story in the making. I believe the photoshoot process should be an experience while enjoying the process and cracking jokes in between. Let’s cherish the moments in the present so we can relive them in the future and celebrate the past.

I am genuinely excited to meet yoooou!

Kind Words

His photography style was exactly what I was looking for. I reached out to him, to take the photos for my daughter's wedding. He helped them get a timeline, and schedule different events throughout the night. I would definitely hire him again..

Ignacio was amazing to work with. He assisted me setting up a timeline for my elopement with my husband and the photos were incredible. He was pleasant with our families, and as a bride, made me feel like the most beautiful person while I was in front of the camera. His communication, professionalism and kind personality was so impressive on top of his impressive talent to make memories last a lifetime.

Ignacio’s work as a photographer is beyond words, his work is mixed with great communication, friendliness, and positive vibes. We hired him for our wedding day and my husband and I are obsessed with the pictures.

From the beginning of our experience, Ignacio provided several times to meet and was very accommodating. These meetings allowed us to collaborate on a detailed timeline (which was completely accurate). On our big day, Iggy provided the best experience possible. From being punctual to helping us stick to our timeline. He immediately connected with both family parties to capture every amazing moment. He continuously provided his creative talents to create photos that will amaze our future children and grandchildren. Iggy is a photographer that will capture the world. A must-have photographer.

"...Very friendly, very professional..."

Was just an all-around amazing experience. My wife and I  weren’t too sure how getting wedding photos is done and he took time to explain the whole process and helped us come up with a timeline for events that was extremely helpful. Very friendly, very professional

"..He was kind and thorough... I would definitely hire him again."




I found Ignacio on the internet, I loved his website. His photography style was exactly what I was looking for. I reached out to him, to take the photos for my daughters wedding. He made an initial consultation with her and her fiance. They had meetings over the last several months before the big day. He helped them get a time line, schedule different event throughout the night. He took so many beautiful bridal and wedding party photos, but also he was generous enough to take the time and take family photos as well. He was kind, thorough and I would definitely hire him again.
