Incredible!

Where do I begin? Josephina is such an artist, and was such a pleasure to work with and her photos so perfectly captured the day - all of it's joy and intimacy. It was very important to me that I get good pictures, but I wanted them to look and feel like us, not some heavily editorialized instagram version of us. I wanted to be able to enjoy the day and not feel like I was being pulled out of it for lengthy pictures. And Josephina really delivered - cocktail hour pictures went quick "yep we're done now get back to your party!" The candids she captured were incredible and she was able to do without getting in the way or making anyone feel like they were 'on set'. Her and her partner Josephina (same name) have such a sweet and warm energy, it felt like they were a part of the party and truly enjoying themselves which warmed my heart. Her rates were much more competitive that I expected given the quality of her work, and she was flexible with the packages and customized the time to meet our needs and really maximized her time. We didn't have a vidoegrapher, but she took it upon herself in the moent to get some videos from her iphone during the dance party which we really cherish.

While organizing our wedding we were offered an incredible amount of photography services, with different packages and price ranges. But with each photographer we saw, we found all the cliches (some you want, some you don't), but the essence was always the same. When we found Rwanda Studio, we saw that all her photo shoots told a story. The pictures showed in a beautiful and poetic way different stories. Whether it was an engagement shoot, a wedding shoot or a trash the dress you were able to feel what the people in the pictures were feeling and you felt part of their day and most importantly their story.
When we got in contact with Josefina, she immediately made us feel comfortable (specially since we were planning a wedding overseas). She understood exactly what we were looking for and provided us different packages to choose from.
The day of our wedding was perfect, not because everything came out exactly as we expected but because it was our special day, and Rwanda Studios was there to capture every second of it.
Our biggest concern while organizing our wedding, was that everything was going to pass by so fast and it did; that day passed by in a blink of an eye, but we have beautiful pictures that tell the story of that wonderful day!

Awesome work

Rwanda Studio's unique, rustic, and authentic style amazed us, having seen their previous work at a friend's wedding. A standout choice for Cancun weddings.

We were blown away by Rwanda Studios. Everyone was extremely amazing and our video and photos were beyond perfect. The best wedding video that I have ever seen in my entire life. Everyone on the staff was very friendly and they never made us feel rushed. It was the most memorable part of our entire wedding.

Such an artist! Amazing pictures!

Josefina was great to work with. She listened to my ideas and I was happy we could execute most of them. I would say that she's a true artist which you will see in the final results. She was very nice to my guests as well and flexible to our needs.

I loved my wedding photos!

Josefina and her team were fantastic to work with. She was responsive and made me feel comfortable leading up to the wedding. We went with her largest package that included 8 hours of photography, a teaser video and a 15 minute video and I am SO glad we did. The video exceeded all of my expectations! I love Josefina's photography style. She made my husband and I feel comfortable during photos, and the photos turned out romantic, natural, candid and captured the emotion between us. Can't recommend Josefina and her team enough!

We love Josefina!!

SO glad we chose Josefina to be our wedding photographer! She was so personable and easygoing, not to mention her photography style is gorgeous and genuine. We knew we wanted a more candid, romantic style of wedding photography and she truly exceeded expectations. During planning, she was also incredibly flexible despite multiple changes to our wedding location, which we were so grateful for. On the day of the wedding, she worked seamlessly with our videographers to capture our special day, and remained calm and collected despite some inevitable hiccups throughout the day. We loved working with her and would recommend her to anyone looking for a talented photographer!!

Excellent personalised service.

It’s been well over a year since we booked Josefina as our wedding photographer and I can safely say that time has in no way mellowed my appreciation for the fabulous work Josefina does! Every step of the way she was warm, fun, insightful and incredibly generous with their time and energy. Nothing about the service we got from her was generic --from the quirky password to access our proofs to the little notes and extras that accompany the fabulous photos themselves. All the extra flourishes show how much pride she has in her work and what a lovely, kind and thoughtful person she is! Having Jose is incredible; you get to relive your wedding from so many different perspectives, capturing the fun and love of your family and closest friends. Whenever I look at our photos (which is a lot…) it reminds me to be grateful and celebrate with the people I love, I’m not sure you could ask more from your wedding photographer!

La mejor elección

Después de comparar mucho fotógrafos Por internet, llegue conRwanda. Me enamore de su trabajo inmediatamente! Veo las fotos de mi boda y no son las típicas posadas que todos tienen. Mis fotos reflejan todas las emociones que vivimos ese día, las tradiciones, nuestra personalidad, el amor que nos rodeaba. Lloro y vuelvo a vivir el momento con esas fotografías y el video.
