Rafael and his wife Alexa were the best people my husband and I could’ve had capture our wedding day in Yosemite National Park. From the consultation call all the way to our wedding day, they have been nothing short of amazing. They take the time to listen to what you want, delivered a quality beyond our expectations, were so helpful and flexible, and made the entire time feel so fun and natural. Their knowledge of the park and the small details was so appreciated. I am so grateful to them both for making my special day that much more special. Thank you so much for everything, we are over the moon."

"They take the time to listen to what you want

Hey y'all!

Hey y'all!

The fact that you’re thinking about telling your love story through photo and video already says so much about you.

Hey there, I'm Rafael! A Dallas wedding photographer with a love for documenting genuine moments, meaningful connections, and a little adventure along the way.

While Dallas is home, I've had the opportunity to document weddings and elopements across the country and beyond, from Yosemite and Colorado to Mexico and the Caribbean.

My approach blends natural storytelling with intentional creativity. I believe the best photographs are the ones that take you right back to how a moment felt, not just how it looked.

Whether you're celebrating with all your favorite people or exchanging vows somewhere breathtaking, my goal is to capture your day as it naturally unfolds, creating images that feel authentic, timeless, and true to you.

How exactly does this work?

We've made things pretty easy for you! So here's the 3 steps to take towards your elopement!

1. Reach out and let's talk about things

2. lets work together on your dream day

3. have your celebration

The very first step is to get on a call to go over all of your ideas whether they are fully formed or just a date! The whole point of the call is to hear exactly what you have dreamed up and for us to meet each other as well! Then we can jump into creating your day your way.

This is where get to work! We begin designing your wedding day that completely represents the two of you! We will begin creating your timeline, finding the perfect locations, sharing my inside knowledge, my go-to vendors in your area and securing those permits if we need to. Everything we do together is specifically designed around you.

What else is there to say? The day is going to come and I make it my mission to make this as fun as possible! The adventure is the fun part and saying your "I do's" is an amazing bonus inside of it. I am going to be there to make sure you are as relaxed and confident as you can be. Because this is your elopement and you deserve it.

Reach out here and let's talk about your dream day!
