About Tino

Fausto Sicha aka Tino

Since his early years, Tino led an organized and disciplined life. His aspirations are big and he was never afraid to confront the challenges that life presented.

 

In a quest to find his true calling, and after only eight years in the country, Tino earned a Bachelor’s and Master’s Degree in International Politics from The City University of New York in New York City as the first step toward Law School.

In 2011, Tino fell in love with the first wedding he photographed, and aspirations of a lawyer quickly dissipated once his true calling was realized. Finally, Tino’s real journey began. Through the hundreds of weddings he has photographed, Tino has met many extraordinary people who have taken him to different places and exposed Tino Photography to vibrant cultures and new religions. All of the multicultural and ethnic weddings have helped shape the man and wedding photographer that Tino is today. Tino says that there are two special moments in his life: The moment that he left his country looking for new opportunities and the moment that he changed careers to follow his passion that was unexpectedly discovered, photography.

In 2017, Tino met the love of his life, Ericka Morales, and they quickly became an inseparable team. Their passion for photography results in the creation of masterful images. Photography isn’t merely a job for them. Because of their love for each other, they understand the beautiful moments in a relationship that are essential to capture on camera. Tino and Ericka’s love for wedding photography is born from and sustained by all that inspires them – their passion for a great story, desire to create beauty and the joy of two families coming together.

Tino and Ericka introduce a refreshing take on photography. After consulting with brides in a bridal boutique for 15+ years, Ericka’s key attention to detail and feminine touch introduce a dynamic perspective to the Tino Photography team. Working alongside Tino, Ericka’s love of photography blossomed and led her to open her own photography business in complement to Tino Photography by shooting maternity, newborn, toddlers, and family portraits.

The team extends beyond this husband and wife duo. Tino Photography is a team of professional photographers and cinematographers. They are family, not workers, and often get together for BBQs, drinks, or dinner at Tino’s. The crew has been trained to shoot in the same style that Tino does, to ensure that your entire event is captured impeccably and cohesively. Team members have years of professional experience. They are dedicated to shooting weddings for a living, and do not do any other job.

The Tino Photography experience starts well before your wedding day. It begins when you meet us in our office. During the free personal consultation, you meet with us, the actual photographers—no representatives or faces you’ll never see again. We offer a free engagement shoot with all of our packages so you can see how we work before your big day. We commit to a full day of coverage from getting ready to ceremony to reception. There is no need to keep checking the clock or pay fees for extra hours.

Our Style

At Tino Photography, our style is a combination of photojournalism (candid), portrait and editorial photography. Our hope is that the images we create will speak volumes – about who our clients are as people, about relationships between newly married couples and about the subtle nuances of everyday life. Our goal is to provide you with a documentary-based illustration of your wedding day with guiding or posing when necessary. It’s not our intention to just “make pretty pictures”, but to truly make images that capture the relationship between two people in love.

YOUR INVESTMENT

The best part is, you get to decide how much to invest. We don’t offer set packages or prices, giving you the freedom to create a package that truly fits your needs. If you hire Tino Photography as your wedding photographer, we promise to cultivate beautiful images that will live in your family for untold generations.
