WEDDINGS & ELOPEMENTS
SOUL OVER BUSINESS
Your story is more than that. It’s your vibe, your chaos, your soul - shot like a short film, but real.

Hey Lovers!
I'm Bruno—photographer, cinematographer, and founder of The Storytellers.
Originally from Europe, I’ll be in Joshua Tree and Palm Springs from fall 2025, bringing my cinematic wedding videography and documentary-style photography to intimate weddings and elopements across the desert.
After years capturing weddings all over Europe—long days, road trips, intense emotions—I’ve developed a sharp eye for raw, human moments. I’m emotional, curious, and I genuinely connect with the people I shoot. I’m not about counting hours — I’m about wedding day coverage that feels honest and true.
My style? 50% pure documentary, and 50% intuitive direction. I’ll shoot quietly when needed, or step into the room when the energy’s high. Think of it like a mix between wedding filmmaker and close friend.
If you’re planning something real, romantic or a little wild — looking for cinematic elopement films or authentic wedding photos — let’s talk.
Let’s ditch the ordinary — and shoot for the stars.
No extra hours charged. Just heart.

WILD
STORIES

Coming from an alternative background,
I can easily slide between the romantic and the wild.
Whether you’re more traditional or rebel at heart, I’ve got the guts to follow your lead.
Your call.
Cinematic. Raw. Built Around Your Story.
We won’t ask you to pose.
Instead, we’ll guide you through honest moments shaped by your story.
Using our background in cinematography and fashion-inspired art direction to make every story feel intentional, genuine - and never a template.
Why hire me?
Because I get it. You don’t want fake poses or a wedding film that feels like someone else’s.
The real advantage? I’m a foreigner with an international background — someone who’s choosing the desert on purpose (my crush), not by chance.
I’m here to mix chaos with love, capturing your story with zero stress, no awkward moments — just good vibes, friendly connection, and honest storytelling.
Let’s make something raw, real, and cinematic — whether it’s a full wedding or elopement in Palm Springs


It’s not about the typical wedding path - it’s about having the guts & attitude to feel things differently.

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.

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 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.
