What we've been thinking

Notes on weddings, on looking, and on this craft. We write rarely and without rushing — the same way we work.

What to wear for your pre-wedding: the complete guide

The two combinations that always work (classic elegant and casual chic), the colours that do, the ones that don't, and why. With examples.

A pre-wedding at the Belmond das Cataratas (the Falls with no one there)

The only hotel inside Iguaçu National Park: three sessions in one place, what to wear, and why guests get the Falls to themselves.

Mitchell Ortiz, the filmmaker behind every wedding

From quinceañeras to weddings in Tulum and Fernando de Noronha. Who's behind the camera, how he got there, and why he films from a distance.

Our wedding packages, explained plainly

Four packages, and it's not always easy to see the difference. What each one covers, who it's for, and how they differ. No prices — those go in your quote.

How much does a wedding photographer cost in Paraguay?

The question everyone asks and almost nobody answers in public: the market's real ranges, what moves the price, and what a serious quote has to say.

What time to set your ceremony (the decision that changes the photographs most)

In Paraguay the sun sets up to an hour and a half apart depending on the month. What happens at 3, at 5 and at 8 pm, and the 30 minutes we always ask for.

Photography, film, or both

What each one does, which to choose if the budget only stretches to one, and why together they give you more than hiring separately.

Getting married in Hernandarias and Ciudad del Este

The heat, the rain, the green and the border next door. What's different from Asunción, and the four things to settle before booking the venue.

Marrying abroad: what changes at a destination wedding

Fewer guests come and they stay longer, the day compresses and there's no second chance. What we learned in Tulum and Fernando de Noronha.

Is the civil ceremony worth photographing?

It's the day you actually get married, it lasts under an hour, and it's the most affordable coverage there is. How we work it even when the room is plain.

A pre-wedding at the Palmaroga (where rain ruins nothing)

A building from 1901 in Asunción's historic centre. The kind of session it gives you, and why it's the one place that doesn't depend on the weather.

Where to shoot your pre-wedding (the places we already know)

Hotels, green spaces, the Falls, and two options almost nobody considers. What each place gives you, and what to ask beforehand.
