Let’s work together
Our Story
Two creatives. One story worth telling.
We’re Josue and Maria — a couple, creative partners, and the team behind Verano Studios.
Photography has been a part of Josue’s life for years, from commercial productions and editorial work to photographing people, brands, and the moments that happen behind the scenes. Maria brings her own creative eye, energy, and perspective to everything we create together.
Eventually, we realized something:
The same things that drew us to photography are the things that make weddings so meaningful to us.
It’s not just the big moments.
It’s the way a bride looks at herself before walking down the aisle.
The nerves before the ceremony.
A father seeing his daughter in her dress for the first time.
The little glance between two people when nobody else is watching.
The laughter that happens when the timeline gets a little chaotic.
The people who traveled across the country just to be there.
Those are the pieces of a wedding day that become priceless later.
We want to tell the whole story.
Our approach combines the intentionality of professional photography with the feeling of being there.
We create timeless photographs while also looking for the candid moments, details, personalities, and in-between memories that make your wedding uniquely yours.
And because we work as a couple, there’s something special about the way we experience a wedding day together. One of us can be focused on the larger story while the other catches the moments happening just outside the frame.
We’re not there to turn your wedding into a photoshoot.
We’re there to experience it with you — and make sure you get to remember it.
Your wedding should feel like your wedding.
Every couple is different. Every family is different. Every celebration has its own energy.
That’s why we don’t believe in forcing every wedding into the same formula.
We want to know your story, understand what matters to you, and create photographs and content that actually feel like you.
From the quiet moments getting ready to the last dance of the night, our goal is simple:
Create something you’ll still feel when you look at it years from now.
We’re Josue & Maria.
And we’d love to tell your story.

WHAT WEDDING-DAY COVERAGE MEANS
Wedding-day coverage refers to continuous photography coverage during the contracted coverage period.
Coverage begins at the agreed start time and ends at the agreed end time.
Coverage does not include time outside the contracted coverage period, transportation between separately located venues unless specifically included, or services not listed in the selected collection.
We photograph the events and moments that occur during the contracted coverage period but cannot guarantee specific photographs, people, moments, weather conditions, lighting conditions, or images prevented by circumstances outside our control.
RETAINER & BOOKING
Your Dallas wedding date is not officially reserved until:
1. A signed agreement is received.
2. A 30% non-refundable retainer is paid.
The retainer is applied toward the total collection price.
The remaining balance is due 30 days before the wedding date.
Your date remains subject to availability until both the signed agreement and retainer have been received.
RESCHEDULING & CANCELLATION
Because your wedding date is reserved exclusively for you, the retainer is non-refundable.
If you need to change your wedding date, we will make reasonable efforts to accommodate the new date based on our availability.
A date change is not guaranteed.
Cancellation, postponement, force majeure, and other circumstances are governed by the signed agreement.
IMAGE DELIVERY
Your final photographs are professionally selected and edited by Verano Studios.
Final photographs are delivered through a private online gallery.
Typical delivery: 6–10 weeks after the wedding.
Sneak previews may be delivered earlier at our discretion.
