And everything I do is humbly focused on that.
I don’t photograph weddings to make them look perfect.
I photograph them so they feel true.
For me, photography is more than a chance to create art or build a portfolio. It is a chance to use my talent and expertise to create something lasting and meaningful for you.
Capturing Elegant Weddings with Impeccable Style
LUXURY WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY IN PANAMA AND WORLDWIDE
I don’t photograph weddings to make them look perfect.
I photograph them so they feel true.
For me, photography is more than creating beautiful images or building a portfolio.
It’s about using my talent and experience to create something lasting and meaningful for you.
My work lives at the intersection of fine art and photojournalism — guided by observation, intuition, and a deep respect for what is actually happening, not what’s being staged.

GET TO KNOW
- DAVID VISCOTT
THE PURPOSE OF LIFE IS TO discover your gift. THE WORK OF LIFE IS TO develop it. THE MEANING OF LIFE IS TO give your gift away.
I capture stories in an elegant and timeless way, with emotion, yet stylish, refined, and genuine. Your images will not only allow you to relive your wedding day, but they will also endure, preserving your legacy and love for future generations
TAKES you back in time and TRANSCEND generations
Images that:
My role is not to direct your day, it’s to protect it.
I communicate and work well with just about anyone. I know how to blend in and feel the flow of your day. And I use that feeling to tell me how to photograph it.
intentional PRESENCE
When you feel at ease, everything else falls into place.
Rather than making the day feel like a photo shoot with overly directed, scripted moments, I unobtrusively capture honest moments— that naturally look like a photo shoot.
natural DIRECTION
With me by your side to guide you, you'll not only feel comfortable, but you'll look stunning - no matter what.
effortless COMFORT
Working with me means working with someone who understands rhythm, timing, and emotional nuance.
For my couples, this translates into confidence. You can relax knowing your story is being held with care — even in moments that are fast, complex, or emotionally charged.
A meaningful connection with you is the key to understanding your vision and capturing the essence of your story and your day.
personal CONNECTION
- Andrea
Ruben seemed so intellectual and gave me an ease of mind that everything was going to be perfect. The passion and effort he invested in making sure he would capture absolutely every detail was so impressive!
- María
Despite the fact that I insisted that I did not know how to pose or that I did not feel so comfortable with the cameras, he managed to make me feel super comfortable on my wedding day and my husband too.
- Carol R.
My husband and I were nervous and had anxiety thinking about knowing how to "pose," not knowing what would look good and what wouldn't, etc., and he took every one of those worries away.
- Milagro
The important thing is to be able to trust the person who will do the work for you, and we did with him. Working with Ruben was very special.
What sets my work apart is not just how the images look — but how the day feels while they’re being made.
Many of my couples tell me they forgot the camera was there. And when they see their photographs later, they recognize themselves, not a version they were asked to perform.
Traveling and exploring various cultures is such a joy. I've had the privilege of photographing weddings in Panama, New York City, Miami, and across Latin America. Where to next?
LOVE
I’m always up for an adventure — whether that means hopping on a plane, chasing a sunset, or finding beauty in unexpected places. Every new journey adds depth and magic to the stories I capture.
NEW ADVENTURES
I believe gratitude cures a lot of things. When I feel grateful, I feel energized. And I'm thankful for the opportunity to bring that energy to your experience.
