About Pura Vida Media Co

Pura Vida Media Co

Versatil and Creative Filmmaker

At Pura Vida Media, I am passionate about creating cinematic pieces of art that beautifully capture the essence of my clients' most special day. Being part of a wedding is something I truly cherish the emotions, happy tears, joy, laughter, and surprises that unfold make each celebration uniquely unforgettable. I adapt to the needs of each couple, whether shooting solo for more intimate weddings or working with a second shooter for larger gatherings or events spanning multiple locations. My goal is to ensure every moment, big or small, is preserved in a way that allows you to relive the magic of your wedding day for years to come.

It’s not just about showing up on your wedding day, it’s about taking the time to truly get to know your love story, your vision, and your personality. Our goal is to create a piece of art that beautifully reflects the essence of your celebration and the love you share with those closest to you.

We are so incredibly grateful to have worked with Marcelo and Pura Vida Media for our wedding. From the very beginning, Marcelo was kind, patient, and genuinely collaborative. He listened closely to what mattered to us and made us feel completely at ease throughout the entire process. On the wedding day, he was calm, professional, and seamlessly present — never intrusive, yet somehow capturing everything that mattered. Our native ceremony carries many cultural nuances and traditions that can be difficult to navigate, especially for someone unfamiliar with them. Marcelo handled it with such respect, attentiveness, and adaptability. He was cooperative, open to learning, and intentional about honoring the meaning behind each moment. That level of care meant more to us than we can adequately express. And the final film… it’s not just a wedding video. It’s something we can truly relive. The emotions, the energy, the small in-between moments — all preserved in a way that feels authentic and timeless. Every time we watch it, we’re transported right back. If you want more than just documentation — if you want a beautifully crafted film that allows you to keep reliving one of the most important days of your life — Marcelo is absolutely the person to go with. We cannot recommend him highly enough.

We could not have been happier with our experience and decision to choose Pura Vida Media to capture our wedding day! From our first emails and conversations to the day of our wedding they made us feel heard amd seen and valued. They were wonderful PEOPLE to work with as well as very talented photographers. Our wedding and setup was a bit unconventional but they accommodated our requests at every step. Their photography style, adventurous but laid back spirit and photography packages were what first drew us to contact them and we are so glad we did. They always responded promptly to emails, communicated well through the planning process and got our pictures back in a timely manner as promised. We would highly recommend them to any couple looking for a photographer for their special day!

Pura Vida Media Co. was an outstanding choice for our wedding videography. From our very first interaction, their communication was detailed, quick, and easy going, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly top-notch - you can tell they take great pride in their craft and are confident in their skills. They captured every special moment we wanted, even micing up the groom so we could hear all the heartfelt vows and reactions. Unfortunately, Karlie and Marcelo were unable to film our wedding in person due to personal reasons, but they ensured a trustworthy and experienced videographer stepped in seamlessly to deliver amazing results that we will cherish forever. We highly recommend Pura Vida Media Co. to any couple looking for skilled, professional videographers who will go above and beyond to make your wedding day perfect.
