THE experience

You've spent months, maybe years, imagining this day. The outfits, the light, the people, the feeling of it all coming together. You don't need someone to just take photos. You need someone who understand the strength of the story that needs to be told generations later.

We work with every couple from booking to delivery — coordinating, collaborating, and crafting a visual story that is as intentional as the day itself. Editorial in eye. True to life in execution. Completely yours in every frame.

Photography experience

An unlimited gallery, edited and colorized in the Black Iris signature style. Built around an editorial eye and a documentary instinct — the portrait you'll frame above your bed and the in-between moments you didn't know were happening. Every gallery is reviewed by Zahra before it leaves the studio, so a three-day, multi-city celebration arrives in your inbox as one cohesive collection.

Filmmaking experience

A wedding film should hold up on a screen larger than a phone. Our team of filmmakers approach every wedding with the same editorial eye and true to life philosophy, capturing not just the moments, but the feeling underneath them. Every cut is deliberate, every frame intentional, so that when you press play, it doesn’t just show you what happened. It puts you back inside it. Whether you choose a cinematic highlight film or a full documentary of your day, your story is told artfully.

The combined experience

For couples who want their celebration fully documented, our combined coverage brings photography and videography together under one creative vision — the same visual language, the same editorial instincts, the same standard across both mediums.

The result is a cohesive archive where your gallery and your film feel like they were seen by the same witness. Every image and every frame, telling one unbroken story.

our signature process

Our process is rooted in intention, not transaction. Each phase is carefully designed to bring clarity, build trust, and ensure your story is told with the cultural depth and emotional authenticity it deserves.

01

THE FOUNDATION

A video consultation about your wedding events and how you actually envision them being documented. If we are good match, a signed agreement and a 25% retainer will secure your date on the studio calendar.

04

the archive

You will receive sneak peeks after the wedding, and then your complete gallery and films will arrive — colorized, sequenced, and built to be part of your family's archive, not just your camera roll.

02

the creative build

Our creative director will design your unique coverage plan. Over time, we will prepare an internal call sheet built from your event timeline, inspo photos, preferred music, and other insights. You will recieve personalized recommendations for offsite portrait locations, timing adjustments and more to curate your archive.

03

The celebration

Your only job on your wedding day is to be fully present with your loved ones and each other. On our end, every question has already been answered, so there’s no problem-solving in real time. We are tuned in, and focused entirely on what is unfolding in front of us.

begin your story

From our first conversation to the moment you receive your gallery, every step is designed with care. We believe in thoughtful collaboration, cultural understanding, and creating space for you to be fully present on your wedding day.
