MEET LEO

Photographer, Editor, Creative Director

Leo was born in the Philippines and raised in a home where old photographs filled every drawer and album. These candid snapshots — some cherished, some forgotten — sparked his deep love for nostalgia and the fleeting nature of moments.

That quiet fascination led him to photography, where he found a way to preserve emotion, movement, and memory. In 2010, alongside his wife, Kat, he co-founded a wedding photograph studio rooted in story telling and real connection. Together, the'y’ve documented love stories from the golden coast of Santa Barbara to the vibrant streets of Brooklyn.

As a creative, Leo draws inspiration from films, music, architecture and interior design. On quiet days, you’ll find him playing guitar, cooking alongside Kat, or out walking with Ringo Star,
