When a Wedding Photographer and Cinematographer Tie the Knot

When you are a wedding photographer + cinematographer like this Bride and Groom, finding just the perfect person to capture your own big day is no easy feat. But with the help of Darya Kamalova, stepping out from behind the lens and celebrating their love went off without a hitch. From insanely beautiful portraits to a crazy cool reception at an industrial loft, see what happens when wedding vendors throw their own beautiful day.

From the Bride... In 2008, we met each other at a comedy festival in Hamburg, and we never would have imagined that we were going to spend the next five years together on the road between Karlsruhe and Cologne. After both of us finished school, we decided to study design in Cologne together and at the same time, we found our first flat. While studying, we did an exchange semester in Budapest, traveled around, and started to work as a filmmaker and photographer on weddings. We have seen so many weddings and have been really inspired by them. After eight years and the proposal in Prague, we knew immediately what we wanted. The challenge was to find the right team, so we looked up not only local vendors in Germany, but also abroad. For example, we found our main photographer in Italy. We did many things by ourselves from the invitations to the wedding gown. But we are also happy that we had such great professionals on our side.
