SOUL OVER BUSINESS
Your story is more than that. It’s your vibe, your chaos, your soul - shot like a short film, but real.
Two Stories. One Eye. Same Soul
My goal is to bring emotion into the chaos, with a filmmaker´s eye, whether your wedding is wild, romantic or something in between.
Hey Lovers!
I'm Bruno—photographer, cinematographer, and founder of The Storytellers.
I’m based in Europe, and I’ll be in Joshua Tree starting Fall 2025, creating wedding films and photos with raw emotion and a filmmaker’s eye — all across the desert.
After years capturing weddings across Europe — long days, intense road trips, real tears and wild love — I’ve built a style that’s half documentary, half improvised chaos.
Zero posing. 100% energy and instinct.
I shoot both video and photo, switching between formats with one mission:
to make you feel your story when you watch it back.
Whether your day is intimate or insane, romantic or rebellious — I’m here for it.
If it’s real, I’m in.
Let’s ditch the ordinary — and shoot for the stars.
No extra hours charged. Just heart.
WILD
STORIES
rebel
hearts
Some couples want wild stories. Others want something quiet and real.
I can do both — or something in between.
Traditional or rebellious, I’ll follow your lead with a feel.
Your call.
Cinematic. Raw. Built Around Your Story.
We won’t stage you.
We’ll tune into your vibe — and build something honest around it.
Your wedding or elopement isn´t a template - it Should feel like you.
I’m a Joshua Tree wedding filmmaker and photographer blending documentary, spontaneous & cinematic storytelling - from Portugal to the California desert.
Why hire me?
Because I get it. You don’t want fake poses or a wedding film that feels like someone else’s.
You want zero stress, good vibes, and something real.
I’m a European wedding filmmaker and photographer, soon to be based in Joshua Tree. I shoot both photo and video — always with a cinematic, documentary feel.
From elopements to weddings, I shoot stories with heart and instinct.
Palm Springs, San Diego, Joshua Tree — I’m here!
The Messy Bits. The Magic Bits.
This Is How I Work – Unscripted, Cinematic, Personal
The energy I bring to elopements and wedding stories — raw, real, and never boring.
It’s not about the typical wedding path - it’s about having the guts & attitude to feel things differently.

Testimonials
"Bruno is an amazing photographer. He’s friendly and professional. When I searched for wedding photos at The Yeatman Hotel, his work stood out - it was unique and full of story. We loved it. He has a great talent for capturing true emotions. It was wonderful to create memories in Porto during our honeymoon. Just one week later, we received the photos, and they touched our hearts. Highly recommend him!”

FAQ
What types of wedding photography and videography services do you offer?
I capture elopements, intimate weddings, engagement shoots, and cinematic wedding films - in Joshua Tree and worldwide.
Can we choose the location for our elopement or couple shoot?
Absolutely. I’ll help you pick a spot that matches your vibe -for sure we can work together to bring up your storytelling around Joshua Tree.
How long does a typical photo or video session last?
There’s no strict limit. I shoot until the story feels complete. Some take 1 or 2 hours, others half a day. It’s about the energy and what you´re looking for.
How long does it take to receive the final edited photos?
We understand the anticipation of seeing your final photos. Our editing process typically takes around 60 business days, depending on the volume of images and the complexity of editing required. Can be sooner either.
We focus on quality and detail to provide images that honestly show your day in our style.
What happens if the weather sucks on the day of our shoot?
We have 2 choices: We embrace it. Rain, wind, clouds — it’s all part of the vibe. Some of my most cinematic work happened under crazy skies. Or we postpone. You decide.
Do you live in Joshua Tree?
I’m based in Europe, but from fall 2025 onwards I’ll be regularly working from Joshua Tree for the season - no travel fees for you.
Do you offer both wedding photo and video packages?
Yes. I’m a photographer and filmmaker - so you can book just one or both. It’s all about telling your story fully.
What’s your videography and photography style?
Unscripted, cinematic, and emotionally raw. It’s part documentary, part improvised based on human connections- nothing fake, nothing staged.
