Our inspiration for picking up the camera has and always will be our couples. Katrina and I have been fortunate enough to not only have these people accept us to document the most important day of their lives, but also to accept us to be their friends and family. Your stories are our life.

Brandon started his photography career in college when he joined the school newspaper. A passion for capturing real moments and telling the story led him to become the photography editor and win several awards for his coverage within only a year. Shortly afterwards he began shooting weddings with Katrina using this same style. The rest is history.

Lisa + Patrick

Photographed by Brandon Wong and Katrina Santos. Written by Katrina Santos

During our first meeting with Lisa and Patrick, Brandon and I realized we that had many things in common. Both Lisa, Brandon, and I had attended the same college, worked at the same newspaper, and all four of us recently purchased new homes in the same neighborhood. With all these things in common, we had an instant connection and became friends immediately.

Since then we had eagerly been anticipating their wedding day and when it came it did not disappoint. Instead of a traditional father-daughter dance, Lisa and her dad got down to hip hop music which was actually suggested by her parents. On top of that they gave us plenty of portrait time at one of our favorite venues Black Gold.

Lisa and Patrick, thank you so much for letting us be a part of your special day and declaring us your “life photographers.” We will always be ready with our cameras to photograph the next step of your life.
