In the heart of Los Cabos, Mexico, where the desert meets the sea, LA76 Photography emerges as a distinctive force in the realm of wedding photography. The creative force behind the camera, Romana and Mariano, a wife and husband team, have been harmonizing their skills for over 17 years. Their journey began with a shared passion for architecture and lifestyle photography, which eventually melded into their unique style.
Their style of photography merges their background in editorial and lifestyle photography and architecture design with wedding destinations, expanding anywhere from stunning luxury resorts to unique adventurous locations. They are known for their passion and creativity in capturing beautiful details, documentary-style raw emotions, and editorial-like portraits fit for magazine covers. LA76 is honored to work with couples across the globe and help them capture all the beautiful moments and emotions in photographs so that they can cherish them forever.
This blend of backgrounds results in a photography style that is deeply passionate and creative. "We are inspired by love, light, and architecture & landscapes," they add. Their dedication to capturing intricate details, spontaneous emotions, and magazine-worthy portraits has not only defined their style but has also caught the attention of major publications.
LA76 Photography is not confined by geography. Their work spans luxurious resorts and adventurous locations across the globe. "We do destination weddings and travel worldwide," they share with enthusiasm. "We are based in Mexico and we photograph all over Mexico, as well as in Italy, Europe, Japan. We love all destinations where our couples in love take us." Their favorite projects are those that challenge them to adapt and innovate, creating bespoke memories that reflect the spirit of each place.
They emphasize the joy of capturing diverse wedding traditions. Each destination brings its own unique flavor and rituals, and capturing these moments allows them to continuously grow and evolve as photographers. Whether set against the backdrop of a European castle or a beachfront in Mexico, their photographs are a testament to their ability to weave the essence of a location with the personal story of each couple.
What truly distinguishes LA76 Photography is their collaborative approach with clients. They believe that the best photographs are a result of mutual trust and understanding between the photographer and the subject. "We love talking together about photography on their wedding day, what moments are most important to them, how and what do they want to feel when they see the photos," they say. "We work together on moodboards, and rely on the couple trusting us to capture all other moments as well that they might not even know are happening, but we know they will be happy to have them captured on photos." By fostering this deep connection, they ensure that every photograph reflects the true essence of the couple's most joyous moments.
For LA76 Photography, the act of taking a photograph is just the beginning. "We love being part of someone's celebration of love," Romana remarks, expressing the emotional depth of their work. Their process extends beyond the camera, involving detailed post-processing to enhance and preserve the beauty of each moment captured. Their goal is for couples to look back at their photos and feel every emotion all over again.
Their work is not just about creating images but crafting legacies of love that endure well beyond the wedding day. With up to 40 weddings a year, each carefully chosen to ensure they can give their full creative energy, LA76 manages to keep their passion alive and their portfolio fresh. Each wedding is a new adventure, a new story to tell.
