Our life has always been a balance of family and art. Today, we work in perfect synergy. Klára brings the intuition and empathy to find the quiet, emotional moments, while I focus on the cinematic composition and the technical soul of our 35mm cameras. Together, we ensure your wedding is captured from two perspectives, but with one heartbeat.

FROM ATOMIC PHYSICS TO ANALOG FILM


Meet Marek & Klára



Dedicated to the art of storytelling since 2010.


I met Klára in 1999 while filming a friend's wedding. Eleven years later, at that same friend’s second wedding, we decided to turn photography into our profession. By then, we had already been a couple for 10 years. For years, I worked as an atomic physicist in a nuclear power plant and later as a financial analyst in global corporations. These worlds taught me extreme precision and how to anticipate the next move. We left the corporate world behind to document stories that truly matter.

THE VALUE OF EXPERIENCE


Investment in Memories



We take on a limited number of weddings  in Austria each year to ensure every couple receives our full creative energy.  To ensure the highest quality of our work, we prioritize full-day bookings during the peak wedding season. For shorter celebrations or elopements, custom rates are available primarily on weekdays or off-season dates.



• SINGLE STORY (8h Photo or Film) starts at €2,400
• SIGNATURE STORY (12h Photo + Film) starts at €4,900


Most of our couples invest between €3,600 – €6,500 for their bespoke collection.
Unique stories require a unique approach. Let’s build a custom collection for your destination wedding, elopement, or multi—day celebration.

THE EXPERIENCE: FROM FIRST HELLO TO LASTING LEGACY

The Process



• THE CONNECTION

 

— The Human Touch:


It all begins with a conversation. We want to know your story, your vision, and the things that make your heart beat faster. Whether it's a coffee in Vienna or a video call from across the globe, this is where we become your allies, not just your photographers.

• THE DAY

— The Invisible Documentarians:


On your wedding day, we are quiet observers. We don’t direct your life; we document it as it unfolds. While Marek captures the cinematic motion and large—scale emotions, Klára focuses on the intimate details and the raw soul of analog film. We blend into the crowd to ensure every smile, tear, and dance move is authentic and undisturbed.

• THE LEGACY

— The Art of Preservation:


Within 48 hours, you’ll receive a 'sneak peek' to relive the initial spark. Then, we carefully curate and hand-edit your story, matching the digital tones with the organic texture of your film frames. The result is an online gallery and a cinematic film—a visual legacy ready to be shared with generations to come.

CLARITY IN EVERY DETAIL

FAQ | Wedding Photo & Video | AT, SK, EU



Q:

 

What if we are not "photogenic"?


A:

"Most of our couples feel exactly the same way. Our documentary approach means you don’t have to perform or pose. We focus on real interactions and the energy between you two. Your only job is to be present; we will find the light and the moments that make you look and feel beautiful."

Q: How easy is the process for destination couples?


A:
"Completely hands-off and stress-free. Once you share your location and plans with us, we take it from there. We are fully self-sufficient—we handle our own travel logistics, scouting, and coordination. Whether it’s an intimate elopement or a grand celebration, we show up ready to work. Once you book us, a huge part of your planning stress disappears."


Q: What would you describe as your signature style?


A:
"The intersection of truth and art. Our philosophy is rooted in a photojournalistic approach—capturing the raw, unscripted energy of your day. However, when the time is right, we pivot into a "natural editorial" style, creating high-end portraits that feel effortless rather than staged. We document your story as it naturally unfolds."


Q: What is the advantage of hiring a husband-and-wife duo?


A:

"One vision, two perspectives. As a married team, we operate with a level of synergy that only years of living and working together can produce. We don’t compete for the same shot; we coordinate seamlessly. This ensures your film and photography are perfectly synchronized in style, color palette, and emotional depth."


Q: How do you balance technology with artistic soul?


A:

"We use high-end tools to serve your story. For photography, we combine digital precision with the organic, nostalgic grain of 35mm Analog Film (available upon request). For cinema, we provide 4K cinematic standard as a baseline, with 8K production available for those seeking ultimate, future-proof detail."


Q: How long until we receive our memories?


A:
"Masterpieces take time, but we don’t make you wait. We provide a curated Sneak Peek within 48 hours so you can share your joy immediately. Your full, hand-edited gallery and cinematic film are delivered within 2–3 weeks, ensuring every frame is treated with the focus it deserves."

Q: How do we secure our date from abroad?
A: "Simple and secure. After a video consultation to ensure our "vibes" align, your date is officially secured via a digital contract and a retainer fee. We accept secure international transfers through Wise or  via bank account (Wire transfer), making the booking process easy regardless of your home currency."
