The Wit Hotel Wedding: Nichole + Randy

February 23, 2019

Each wedding has its difficulties and in this one the ceremony was the tricky part of all. Being a ceremony in the afternoon with the sun reflecting in the city buildings, the warm tones, the shadows and the changing light was hard to control, but as we always say, we are there to offer solutions and overcome obstacles… #1 requirement to be a wedding photographer ;)

Now that we look back, what it was the “less ideal situation” became the highlight of the day. This ceremony in the rooftop of the Wit Hotel had its own charm! It was perfection from every angle: from Nichole walking down the aisle, the moment his father handed it to Randy, Nichole and Randy’s looks during the ceremony, those sunset colors reflecting on the guests, the smoke from the buildings as the backdrop, and the sun positioned perfectly behind the beautiful couple while walking out as husband and wife for the first time.

This reaffirms once again that everything happens in the right place and time and that emotions and happiness will never be overshadowed by any kind of obstacle… in the end the universe always conspires! Happy Anniversary Nichole and Randy, thanks again for all the love.

BEHIND THE LENS

MEET
Juancho + Johana

We’re Johana and Juancho — partners in life, creativity, and capturing love stories across the globe. Juancho’s journey began with bold determination: he moved from Colombia to the U.S. with nothing but vision, passion, and a deep love for people’s stories. He bought the best lens on the market before even owning a camera, and after his first engagement session with friends, he came home glowing. That spark turned into a decade-long career rooted in emotion, connection, and purpose. Juancho has a magnetic personality — the kind that makes fast friends with strangers on planes, in grocery aisles, and even with our UPS guy. Weddings, with all their energy, humanity, and beautiful chaos, are his favorite kind of playground.

I bring a different kind of energy to the team. With a background in modeling and a career as a radio and TV host, I’ve always lived in creative spaces — and now I channel that into editorial work and wedding storytelling. Juancho likes to call my eye “the girly point of view,” but really it’s about noticing what often goes unseen: the softness, the glances, the stillness in between the big moments. Maybe it’s the journalist in me, but I’m always drawn to the why behind the image. Together, we balance each other — and we love creating with people who value that harmony of heart and art.
