Natanael & Luara
Partners in Crime. Photographer couples who work together
Natanael and Luara met just like in a movie: band rehearsal, he plays the guitar, she comes to watch her friends. It was love at first sight. They hold quite an unpopular opinion about the wedding industry, considering they're wedding photographers. But it's one worth taking notice of. The interview is short but interesting, check out their instagram to meet them closer through their work.
— How did you two meet?
We met in an reggae band rehearsal. Natanael was playing the bass guitar, He was freelancing for the band, and Luara was watching the rehearsal! Bum, we fell in love that time hahahah.
— Anything in your work you're not comfortable with?
We don't really like the extreme trade that is done over weddings in our region. We believe that weddings should be free, real and not like robots, as something mechanical and always "commercial"
— Is it important to separate work and private lives or do you see one as an extension of another?
We do not believe that there should be a separation of professional and private life. It is who we are, and that who we will be at any time and any place.

However, we believe that there is a need to separate some moments where we disconnect our mind from work and focus only on our life as a couple. That's what maters for us.
— What's the tip you'd give to other couples considering a business together?
Our work is supported by the measure of love we have for each other and for what we do. If we could give a tip to the couple who intend to work together it would be: make sure you love each other and love what you are doing. Only love can support, nothing more.
— How do clients usually react when they learn you’re a couple?
The couple is super happy, and feels more at ease. Especially the bride knows that in the team there is a woman who will understand her hahahaha.
— Fav top 3 photographers
We don’t watch wedding photographers Instagram very often. We like to create our own stuff without being influenced by anyone. You know?
