Meet the team behind the lens
WE WANT YOU TO
Look back at your photos, and feel it all over again.
With a team of fellow photographers and videographers, we share a passion for photography and a dedication to providing a flawless experience for our clients.
Our aim is to make them feel comfortable in front of the camera and to guide them throughout the entire process.
When we are not photographing weddings...
...We love to meet new people, travel together, cook, and spend time outdoors canoeing, hiking, biking and fishing. We brew IPA beer, always DIY our home, and play with our bossy cat. We are excited that you found us! We can’t wait to meet you and create something special together.
We don’t take the same “cookie cutter” wedding photos.
We describe our signature style as the perfect balance between editorial and candid. We aim to capture all the fleeting moments in a classic and cinematic style, creating timeless photography and videography.
Planning our own wedding has helped us understand our couples on a new level.
It's important for us to hear your vision and understand your specific desires. We aim to support you by capturing every single moment of your wedding day, enabling you to reminisce about your favorite moments and those you may have missed amidst the busyness of the day. It was only after our wedding, when we saw our photos, that we even recalled the details of our venue decor and cake! We laughed and teared up as we witnessed our families interacting in dancing and silly games. We were so overwhelmed that we didn't fully remember these moments until we looked back at our photos. Therefore, we truly understand the significance of capturing these precious moments.
We got your back every step of the way.
The Team
Natalia
Creator of Lilac Studios, Lead Photographer and Videographer | Customer Happiness Guru
Natalia’s creative path started as soon as she could hold a pencil. Her mom had to travel to larger cities to buy countless coloring books and signed her up for art classes at the age of 4. Although she tried many things, it was when she got her first camera that she knew it was her way of capturing the beauty of the world, people, and finally, love stories.
Natalia’s superpower is putting her couples and their closest ones at ease and radiating calm energy throughout the chaos of a wedding day.
Most clients describe her as a down-to-earth, kind, and detail-oriented person.
Matt
Creator of Lilac Studios, Lead Videographer and Photographer | Tech Wizard | Expert of Operations
Having a hobbyist photographer dad, who would convert the kitchen into a darkroom on a daily basis, Matt was surrounded by photographic paper, film, and red bulbs since early childhood. His natural curiosity for the technical process and artsy mind led him to pursue Vision and Sound Engineering Studies, where he could combine both worlds, filming short documentary films and exploring the technical aspects of the film industry simultaneously. It didn't take him long to realize that what he loved most was capturing the emotional stories of people.
Our clients describe him as an easy-going person. It is evident that his jokes, huge smile, and deep laugh make people so comfortable around him.
Tom
Lead Editor & Social Media/Marketing Specialist
As Matt’s younger brother, Tom has been surrounded by photography and art since he can remember. Starting as a content creator in times when YouTube wasn’t owned by Google, he developed a great understanding and knowledge about film, editing, and storytelling. His first creations were sports documentaries, as he is still a huge fan of the NBA and soccer (YNWA!). You can see some of those influences in his creations.
His expert knowledge and great attention to detail make him the perfect person to translate your story into an edited film.
Amr
Associate Photographer
Amr’s photography journey began as a Flight Attendant at Emirates Airlines, where he developed a passion for capturing high-quality images of the destinations he visited. Over time, his passion grew, along with his skills in photography and editing. He started focusing on portrait and event photography before finding his true calling in weddings. Documenting one of the most important days in people’s lives became incredibly rewarding.
His superpower is storytelling through photography—capturing everything from the classic kiss at the altar to the in-between moments. He strives to create images that reflect the authenticity of each moment, allowing couples to relive their special day.
Clients often describe Amr as approachable, calm, and engaging. They frequently mention how comfortable he makes them feel in front of the camera and how enjoyable he makes their day.
Keyur
Associate Photographer & Videographer
From childhood, Keyur was fascinated by cameras and motion graphics. With a background in visual effects compositing, he honed his skills in visual storytelling for TV and film. His passion for capturing genuine emotions led him to photography and videography, especially for life’s most meaningful moments.After gaining experience with family events, he transitioned into wedding photography and videography. His first English Christian wedding, second shooting with Natalia and Matt, sparked his love for the process—the emotions, the celebrations, and the flow of the day.
As a hybrid shooter, Keyur excels in both photo and video, with a keen eye for detail.
Clients describe him as enthusiastic and dedicated, always going the extra mile to capture each moment beautifully.
Frank
Associate Photographer
Frank’s journey into wedding photography started with his love for capturing people’s emotions and real, unscripted moments. He was already shooting portraits and events when friends began asking him to photograph their weddings. After his first wedding gig, he was hooked—the mix of storytelling, emotion, and creativity was exactly what he loved.
His superpower is making people feel at ease in front of the camera. Whether calming a nervous couple or bringing energy to a wedding party, he creates a relaxed, natural atmosphere where real moments shine.
Clients describe Frank as easygoing yet professional, seamlessly blending into the day while offering direction when needed. With a keen eye for detail and emotion, he ensures every shot feels meaningful.
Noah
Associate Videographer
In 2024, he had the chance to film a family friend’s wedding — an experience that sparked a genuine love for capturing weddings. Since then, he’s had the opportunity to work alongside Matt and Natalia at Lilac Studios, learning and growing with every story he helps tell.
His superpower as a wedding videographer is his calm presence and cinematic eye. He stays relaxed and focused throughout the day, with a passion and stamina that keep him fully present from the first look to the final dance.
