MEET THE CREW

FOCUSED JOURNEY MEDIA

As long time friends that share a common interest for travel, photography,and filmmaking, we have combined all our passions of visual storytelling and love to create Focused Journey Media. We bring a unique perspective to each wedding we capture, as we have all been friends for years and share a deep bond that translates into our work. Our chemistry and camaraderie allow us to seamlessly work together, capturing every moment, all while having fun with our couples in the process.

Work never really feels like work when we're together and that's something that we've cherished over the years. Our bond goes beyond just being colleagues – we're like family. We want to bring that same energy to you - our clients, but more importantly, our friends.

Hello, friends! I’m Aaron, a photographer and filmmaker passionate about telling stories that actually mean something. My love for this craft grew out of traveling with friends and exploring nature, chasing light and moments that felt too good not to capture.

When it comes to weddings, my goal is simple: tell a story that genuinely reflects your love journey, one that becomes a cherished family heirloom for generations to come. I want you to feel fully present, knowing the moments that matter most are being documented with care and intention. I create an experience that feels less like a photoshoot and more like hanging out with a close friend.

A few things about me: I’m fueled by oat milk cortados and iced americanos, I’ll probably hum or sing something while we work together, and I take my cooking just as seriously as I take my craft. Adventure, good food, and great people, that’s my jam.

Whatsup everyone, I’m David! I’m a filmmaker and photographer with a focus on weddings, music, and travel. I’ve been creating videos since I was a kid, starting way back in elementary school, and it still blows my mind how powerful those early memories can feel years later. There’s something special about revisiting moments you forgot existed, whether it’s an old home video or a clip that suddenly brings you right back to a feeling, a place, or a person.

Friends always joke that I’m the historian of the group. I’m always the one holding onto moments that might otherwise slip by or even the most embarassing ones. That love for memory is what shapes my creative approach. I shoot in a documentary style, prioritizing real interactions, honest emotion, and moments that unfold naturally. 

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll usually find me traveling, going to live-events, watching shows with my wife, or grabbing a double double at In-N-Out. 

Victorio here! I photograph love in a way that feels like you. I didn’t start with weddings. A trip to Paris changed everything when I was asked to capture a surprise proposal, and I saw how one moment could live on through a photo.

What I bring is intention. Before I pick up the camera, I want to understand what makes your connection yours. Not just the surface, but the reasons you chose each other. I direct with purpose, then pull back so nothing feels forced. I focus on composition, movement, and the energy between you so the images feel natural and elevated.

I split my time between New York and San Francisco. You’ll usually find me at a coffee shop, chatting with strangers and finding inspiration wherever I go.

When I'm not behind the camera, you can find me splitting my time between New York and San Francisco. You'll find me indulging in dim sum, at a coffee shop, or growing my love for fashion. I draw inspiration from the world of style to add an extra flair to your photographs. I feel privileged to serve as your personal storyteller

Hey y’all! I’m Mark, your Bay Area wedding photographer with a love for real moments, incredible light, and photos that feel like you.

I believe the best images often happen in the in-between: the quiet hand squeeze, the unplanned laugh, the look you give each other when no one else is paying attention. My style blends documentary storytelling with an artistic eye, so your photos feel natural, intimate, and true to who you are.

When you work with me, I’m not just capturing your best side. I’m creating space for you to feel comfortable, confident, and fully yourself. Whether it’s your wedding day, engagement session, or portraits just because, I want the experience to feel easy, fun, and unforgettable. Less stiff posing, more first-date energy.

When I’m not behind the camera, I’m your local Bay Area DJ playing at your favorite bars, clubs, and weddings with the crew. You can learn more about that here.

Hello, friends! My name is Aaron! I’m a photographer and filmmaker on a mission to tell stories that matter – especially the ones wrapped in love and sprinkled with happy tears. When I'm not snapping photos or crafting films, you can find me kicking back with a cup of coffee (oat milk cortado, please!), exploring the local food scene, or planning my next adventure to some far-off destination with the homies.

I'm a firm believer in living life to the fullest, and that means enjoying every moment and making the most of every opportunity. My goal is to tell a story that genuinely reflects your love journey, keeping in mind that these photos and videos will become cherished family heirlooms for generations to come. I also aim to create an experience that feels just like hanging out with homies. I foster an atmosphere of comfort and fun, making our time together a cherished memory in itself. I can't wait to be part of your special day and celebrate the incredible love you share.

Greetings, I'm Victorio! I am a dedicated and passionate photographer who specializes in capturing life's most special moments - weddings, couples, and graduates. I am deeply committed to preserving your special moments and creating memories that profoundly resonate with your hearts. I am here to make your experience truly exceptional, crafting an unforgettable visual journey that beautifully reflects your unique story of love and celebration. Now, a little bit about myself! I have been a dedicated fan of Taylor Swift since 2008, and my love for her music brings an extra touch of magic to my work.

When I'm not behind the camera, you can find me indulging dim sum with my grandparents, and growing my love for fashion. I draw inspiration from the world of style to add an extra flair to your photographs. I feel privileged to serve as your personal storyteller

Hey there, I'm Mark - your adventure and lifestyle wedding photographer. My friends would say that I'm outgoing and imaginative - a lover of the arts, people, and storytelling. I believe that life is about the little moments that pass by so fast, and capturing those moments is what brings me joy. I strive to create an experience during your session that is unforgettable, so much so that it feels like we're just hanging out as old friends.

Outside of my work, I have a gazillion interests and hobbies that keep life exciting. I’ve spent years breakdancing (and even competed at the collegiate level), I enjoy DJ-ing, rock climbing, working out, and traveling whenever I get the chance. That said, as much as I love staying busy, I’m just as happy slowing things down and spending time at home. No matter how full life gets, my loved ones will always come first, and that value carries into the way I approach both my work and the relationships I build along the way.
