The studio.
Two people, two cameras, one standard.
The principal
Calla Reyes.
Calla opened the studio in 2012 with one camera bag and a rented scanner. Fourteen years and two hundred weddings later, the bag is bigger and the scanner is ours, but the practice is the same: photograph the truth of the day, then edit until it speaks.
She shoots film and digital side by side on every wedding, trusts natural light before any lamp, and never lets a gallery leave half-edited.
"We take fewer photos and keep the true ones. You will never wait 90 days for a gallery, because we have never let one."
Calla Reyes, principal photographer
The workroom
Contact sheets, film, and one way to deliver.
We shoot film and digital; we deliver one way: edited.
Contact sheets dry by the window. The scanner runs before lunch and again at dusk. Every gallery is edited frame by frame, never batched, and nothing ships until the whole set agrees.
The second camera
Ren Alvarado.
Ren runs the film scans and keeps the delivery clock. The second camera at every wedding stands for one promise: the light that dies while one of us changes memory cards is caught by the other.
