Hey! We’re the Montejos.
Hey guys, Dania and Luis here and we’re excited to tell you OUR story. We’ve been married for about 4 years (November will be our 4th anniversary) and we have a beautiful daughter that we are obsessed with, Leona Rose. We are both in the creative/marketing industries but we finally came to a point to step out in faith and do something we’re both passionate about, together.
The first time I (Luis) met Dania, I immediately knew in my heart of hearts that she would be the woman I married. I remember a few weeks after us starting to hang out, she bought a Nikon camera and started to take tons of pictures. As we grew together, we became inseparable. She ended up teaching me how to use the camera, along with other things like Photoshop, how to eat tacos - the right way - and how to take pictures. This new skill quickly turned from fascination to passion and then into the start of my career in the creative field. Thanks to my wonderful wife, I have been able to build a career on the arts and I am eternally grateful for that.
Fast forward to this year, we’ve always had it in our hearts to start our own business, we just didn’t know what. At the time, Dania and I were taking pictures for friends and family as favors but to our amazement, people actually loved our photos. It wasn’t until then that it all clicked for us - we should take pictures for people! And alas, here we are.
I’m Luis
Hey guys, I’m Luis - 1 of 2 Montejos. I’ve been in the creative space for about 5 years now but I’ve been creating ever since I could remember. I started as a graphic designer and then found myself leading creative teams for a few organizations.
I’m versed in everything from graphic design to merchandising, video editing to photography, even a little podcasting - mostly anything media related. But of these all, taking pictures has had a very distinct and unique effect on me.
As I’ve grown older, I find myself appreciating things differently. I find myself more in touch with who I am and what is truly important to me. I have become fascinated with memories and how to preserve them. It’s almost like taking a picture makes a moment in time immortal.
I’m Dania
Hey! I’m Dania, and what a pleasure! I’m the other Montejo! I’ve been doing the creative thing for a number of years and I’ve been incredibly blessed to be able to help others bring that image in their mind to life.
Whether I’m taking a photo, designing a graphic, or creating a video, I love bring those ideas to life! But out of all the creative work I do, photos are definitely my favorite. Being able to capture a moment that disappears in a second is such a rewarding feeling but helping others create those memories is by far the greatest reward.
