my journey
Hi, I’m Fernando De La Cruz and this is my story!
Embarking on the journey of wedding cinematography and photography in the Pittsburgh, PA and outside the area has been a deeply fulfilling adventure for me. From the moment I picked up my first camera, I was captivated by the power of visuals to freeze life’s most precious moments in time.
Weddings, with their blend of raw emotion, love, and celebration, drew me in as the perfect canvas for storytelling. I began by capturing intimate ceremonies around Pittsburgh, discovering how a single image or film clip can preserve laughter, tears, and the most genuine emotions forever.
Over time, my passion evolved into a dedicated pursuit, and that’s when My Only Visuals truly came to life. I believe every couple in Pittsburgh and beyond has a love story worth cherishing a story that deserves to be told in a cinematic, heartfelt way. Through artistic flair, technical expertise, and a commitment to excellence, I aim to craft wedding films and photos that go beyond the ordinary and transform each celebration into an unforgettable visual masterpiece.
For me, this is more than a job it’s a calling. When passion meets purpose, the result is not just a series of images or video clips; it’s a living, breathing record of one of the most significant days in a couple’s life. I invite you to join me on this journey, where every frame tells a story and every photograph captures the essence of love.
how the name began
Every love story has a moment that defines it, a spark that changes everything. For me, that moment came with Olivia, the love of my life. From the very beginning, she had a way of making me feel like I was her entire world, often calling me her “only.” It was a simple, heartfelt phrase, but it carried so much meaning—it was about being her one and only, her partner, her everything.
As our relationship grew, so did my passion for capturing the beauty of love stories. When it came time to name my wedding photography and cinematography business, I wanted something that reflected not just the work I do but the emotion behind it. That’s when it hit me: My Only Visuals.
The name is a tribute to Olivia and the love we share a reminder that every couple deserves to feel like their story is one of a kind. Just as she inspired me, I strive to create visuals that capture the unique essence of every couple’s journey, preserving the magic of their once-in-a-lifetime moments.
At My Only Visuals, we believe love is worth celebrating, and your story deserves to be told beautifully. Let us be the ones to capture the moments that will remind you of your “only” for years to come.
