Hi I'm Rubén! your photographer and videographer

I’m a wedding storyteller based in Montréal, also serving Ottawa, Kingston, Québec City & beyond for several years. From the intimate glances to the wildest dance-floor fires, I craft visual narratives that stand the test of time and feel genuine in every frame. Whether you're planning an intimate celebration or a full-day event, I work in both English and French and will walk alongside you from planning to delivery, with care, creativity, and heart.

This is what my happy couples say...

Your memories deserve a stress-free experience

01

Before the Wedding

From our first conversation, my goal is to give you all the information you need to make a confident and informed decision. We’ll go over the options together so you can choose the wedding package that fits you best. Once everything feels right, you’ll sign a clear and detailed contract that protects you and outlines every part of the service.

Whether we connect by message, phone, video, or even over coffee, I’m here to guide you through the process and make the planning feel simple and stress-free.

02

On Your Wedding Day

I’ll be there to capture every heartfelt moment and joyful laugh with creativity and precision. My goal is to make you feel comfortable and relaxed, so your authentic love story shines through in every shot.

03

After your Wedding day

Once the confetti settles, I’ll begin curating, sequencing, and perfecting your story, every image, every heartfelt glance, every frame of video. You’ll receive a secure private online gallery for downloading and sharing all your high-resolution photos and a beautifully edited video highlight (or full film), depending on your package. Your memories will be preserved for a lifetime, not just another folder in your inbox.

Wedding Collections & Storytelling Options

More Than Just a Wedding Day Coverage

Your investment covers so much more than the time I spend taking photos or videos. It includes all the care and preparation that happens before the big day, being fully present to capture every real moment as it unfolds, and the time and attention that goes into editing, colour grading, and putting everything together so your story feels just like you remember it.

 

Every couple’s day is different, and that’s what makes this work so special. Whether you’re planning a small and intimate ceremony or a full-day celebration from morning prep to the last dance, each collection is designed to reflect your story the way it deserves to be told, with flexibility to make it truly yours.

 

Photography + Video

All photography collections include fast digital delivery within 21 business days, so you can relive your day quickly without waiting months. An online gallery with all your best moments (around 50 photos per hour), and complimentary video clips captured by the same professional during your wedding day.

As a hybrid photographer and videographer, I document both photo and video seamlessly, so you can relive not only how everything looked, but also how it felt. This approach allows you to enjoy beautifully crafted photos and meaningful video moments in one cohesive experience, offering exceptional value without the need to hire a separate videography team.

"Full-day Documentary"

  • up to 9-hour photography coverage

  • Full wedding ceremony video

Starting at $2899 

Let me show you a few examples of the wedding ceremony video I'll include in your package

Are you eloping or hosting an intimate wedding with fewer than 20 guests? Perhaps your event requires less than 4 hours of coverage or is happening on a weekday. 

 

Let me create a custom package just for you

Only Videography collections

All videography collections include fast delivery within 21 business days (you won't wait 5 months) and a private online gallery where you can easily watch, download, and share your highlight film. Each video is thoughtfully crafted with storytelling in mind, blending cinematic visuals and music with crystal-clear audio captured through professional microphones, so your vows, speeches, and laughter are preserved exactly as they happened.

 

Many couples book their photographer first and then spend months wondering whether to add video, only to realize later how much they wish they could hear their vows again, see their parents’ smiles, and feel the emotions of the day as they truly unfolded. Now is the perfect time to make sure those moments live on, beautifully told and forever remembered.

 

If you’ve already booked your photographer, I can seamlessly capture your wedding story on video, bringing your memories to life with movement, emotion, and sound. It’s a choice you’ll cherish every time you press play.

"The hybrid-shooter"
photo & video experience
What is it?

Add a dynamic touch to your wedding memories with both photos and video, seamlessly captured by a single professional. As a hybrid photographer and videographer, I effortlessly work in both worlds, so you can relive not only how everything looked, but also how it felt.

This service can be added to any photography package and offers incredible value. It’s ideal for couples who want to preserve their wedding ceremony, the reception, and/or enjoy a short highlights reel of the entire day, without the higher cost of hiring a full videography team. I can do both!

What my couples are saying

Before booking, you might wonder what it’s really like to work with me, and I believe my clients say it best!

Each of them once stood exactly where you are now, searching for the right photographer and videographer hoping to feel in good hands. Today, they’re enjoying their beautiful memories, knowing every emotion and detail was captured forever. I’m proud to share their stories and kind words, they’re the heart of what I do.

Ruben knows how to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera! 😁
We hired him for our engagement shoot (which helped us make a first connection and feel at ease on the wedding day!), our wedding day, and later for a family/maternity session during my second pregnancy with our son, who was just under a year old! 😊

Each time, the same result: an enjoyable session, good vibes, professionalism, and smiles! Ruben’s photos are beautiful and professional; the colors, poses, locations, and camera angles are perfect!

What I also really appreciate is how natural everything feels; nothing is forced, just genuine and spontaneous moments captured at the perfect time!

In short, I highly recommend working with him; you won’t be disappointed! ;)
