What began as a personal interest slowly transformed into something much deeper. Photography, at first, was simply a way to explore visual expression — a hobby guided by curiosity rather than expectation. Over time, that curiosity evolved into a discipline, and eventually into a passion that now defines the identity of Alcides AG.
“I began as a personal hobby, and over time it grew into the craft and passion that now defines our work.”
With seven years of experience behind the lens, the journey has been shaped by intention, patience, and a steady commitment to refining both vision and technique. Each year added clarity — not only in how images should look, but in how they should feel.
The visual language of Alcides AG is rooted in elegance and restraint. There’s a cinematic quality to the work, but never at the expense of authenticity. Every frame is art-driven, carefully composed, and designed to remain relevant long after trends fade.
“Our style is elegant, cinematic and art-driven, crafted to feel luxurious and intentionally timeless.”
This approach allows weddings to be documented as visual stories rather than collections of moments — stories that feel cohesive, elevated, and emotionally grounded.
Technology plays a supporting role, never the main character. Alcides AG works with Canon R6 and Sony FX3 lineups for video, choosing equipment that delivers reliability, flexibility, and cinematic depth without disrupting the natural flow of the day.
In post-production, the philosophy remains the same: refinement over excess.
We apply a clean, refined edit focused on color harmony, art-driven aesthetic.
The result is imagery that feels polished yet effortless, where tones feel intentional and visual balance is carefully preserved.
At the heart of the work lies a deep appreciation for fleeting moments. Weddings are filled with instances that happen once — a look, a pause, a breath before emotion takes over.
“I love being present for moments that will never happen again.”
That awareness shapes the way Alcides AG observes and documents. Rather than forcing moments, there’s a quiet attentiveness that allows stories to unfold naturally, with honesty and depth.
Working with couples is rooted in clarity and simplicity. The process begins with listening — truly understanding what matters most to each couple — and then guiding them with calm direction throughout the experience.
“I keep everything simple, clear and intentional. We listen first, understand what truly matters to them and guide the process with calm direction.”
That balance between communication and artistry ensures the final result feels aligned with the couple’s vision — elegant, effortless, and deeply personal.
For those with unique needs, custom packages are always an option, designed to maintain the same level of quality and refinement while adapting to individual expectations.
“Yes, we can tailor a custom package to fit their specific needs while maintaining the elegance and quality of our experience.”
Looking back to the early days of building a creative business, the advice is refreshingly straightforward.
“Keep working, stay consistent and trust your own vision.”
Consistency, patience, and self-belief have been essential in shaping both the brand and the work — a reminder that growth is rarely instant, but always intentional.
For couples getting ready for a shoot or wedding day, the guidance is simple and reassuring.
Keep everything simple and intentional. Choose outfits that feel elegant and true to you, stay on time, and trust the process.
When couples feel relaxed and present, the images naturally reflect that ease — resulting in photographs that feel authentic, graceful, and quietly powerful.
Alcides AG embraces destination weddings, especially in environments that add visual depth to the story. Places defined by strong light and artistic energy hold a special appeal.
“Our favorite destinations are places with hard light and an artistic atmosphere — settings that add character and elevate the story in a cinematic way.”
These settings become more than backdrops; they actively shape the mood and narrative of each wedding day.
