ABOUT US

Behind the Lens

We are hopeless romantics who finds great joy in creating and capturing connection and beauty wherever we go.

about us

We are
Melissa & Arturo

We are so THRILLED you are here! We whole-heartedly believe in cultivating MEANINGFUL relationships with our clients, so we are excited for you to get to know us! Just think of us as a FRIEND capturing your special moments!

We're Melissa and Arturo Gonzalez. We are college sweethearts that love to travel, could eat pizza everyday, and love celebrating our marriage, our couples marriages, and creating a LEGACY for your future family & friends! 

our favorite things:

01

places we've been

We’re always up for adventure—whether it’s somewhere totally new or a place that already feels like home from the streets of New York to the sands of Hawaii! 

02

Making memories

Each year, we skip the gifts and choose the getaway. It’s our favorite tradition—celebrating another year of marriage by discovering somewhere beautiful together and capturing it with an anniversary session. Because the best thing we’ve collected over the years isn’t stuff—it’s memories.

03

our family

Meet Bella—our sweet, spirited sidekick.
She’s a German Shepherd + Corgi mix with the biggest heart and the shortest little legs, and somehow she manages to keep up with everything. Bella brings energy, cuddles, and comic relief to our everyday—and let’s just say, she’s fully claimed her spot as head of morale around here.
We didn’t know how much we needed her until we had her… and now we couldn’t imagine life without our girl.

04

meal

Our version of the perfect night? A slice (or three) of NY-style pizza and a chilled glass of Riesling. We fell in love with it on our first anniversary trip to NYC, and it’s been our go-to ever since. It’s the kind of meal that feels like home—whether we’re celebrating big or just winding down midweek.

05

Superpower

We’re Melissa and Arturo—partners in life and in business.

Arturo is our resident historian and perfectionist. He’s all about precision, details, and honoring every piece of your day (yes, even the perfectly placed pocket square).
Melissa is our people-first planner and loyalist. She’s the calm in the chaos, building trust through thoughtful preparation so you feel fully cared for from the first email to the final exit.

Together, we’re the kind of duo who loves a well-built timeline and an even better love story. Your wedding isn’t just a day to us—it’s history in the making.


06

OUR FAVORITE PART

One of our favorite parts of a wedding day is when the bride and groom pause—just for a second—to take it all in. It’s something we did at our own wedding, and we’ll never forget that feeling.
Looking out and realizing… everyone we love was right there, just for us. It felt surreal—in the best way. And now, we always try to create space for our couples to have that same moment. Because those are the memories that last forever.
