Maybe  your  wedding

doesn’t need more

tradition.

Maybe it needs a little

revolution.

Hey, I’m Bruno Costa



I photograph people, places and whatever happens in between.


After nearly fifteen years as a documentary wedding photographer, I care less about what weddings are supposed to look like. I’m more interested in the conditions they happen in and in your own mindset.



Cinema and music have probably influenced my photography more than photography itself.


I travel a lot. I get too close. I stay too late.
