About Carolina
Hi, I'm Carolina Mosquera, Located in the beautiful romantic city of Bruges i fell in love with photography. So i decided to open a photography studio which is called Lux Visual Storytellers, that is serving all over the world... My photos are taken in a spontaneous way, i love to visualise the connection between the couple in a beautiful and honest way. We also love the little details that make the day, rings / flowers / table setting / snacks and drinks… And of course we should not forget the uncles who take a nap on the sofa, or the kids who make a celebration funny, love them!

Katie Velasquez
The United States 🇺🇸
TOP5 photographer in 2021
Founder and lead photographer of Windy City Production. What began as a passion project back in 2012 with her husband has since grown into a full-time career capturing weddings throughout Chicago and beyond.
Over the years, she has been blessed to receive recognition from the wedding photography community, including dozens of industry awards and even being ranked among the top five photographers in the U.S. in 2021. At the heart of it all, however, her greatest joy is creating wedding photos and films that couples can look back on decades from now—images that bring the emotions of their day rushing back as if it had just happened yesterday.
She has always believed that wedding photography is about more than just pretty pictures; it is about storytelling, emotion, and honoring the love and the people who mean the most. That is what drives her every time she picks up the camera.

Jan Van De Maat
Netherlands 🇳🇱
TOP3 photographer in 2023
His style of wedding photography is classy, timeless, elegant, and fairytale-like. Jan loves to play with light and am drawn to classic architecture like old towns, castles, cathedrals and monasteries. But he also loves to photograph in natural scenery like forests with tree lanes. His favorite season is autumn because of the colors and the chance of fog, which creates beautiful rays of light.
Over the last 15 years Jan has photographed over 750 weddings and received many national and international awards during his career as a professional wedding photographer.
"The next step for me is already here: becoming a jury member of Wedisson Awards! I love to see the work of other photographers and help them grow by recognizing their best work."
