Our Story
98 Wedding Co. was founded in 2017 as a result of a serendipitous love story between Gui & his boyfriend Joe. This story started a year earlier in Brooklyn, NY.
At a time when Gui felt his love of art and photography was stagnant in Brazil, Joe was on the other side of the world in Colorado contemplating his next move into fashion design. Simultaneously, they both took their leap of faith and moved to NYC. At this time, Gui embarked on his journey into wedding photography while Joe began his career in fashion design. Unbeknownst to one another, their soulmate was just a floor away at 98 Clay Street. Yet, as many modern love stories do, Gui and Joe met online, and quickly discovered that, just as their budding relationship, their passion for design, art, and fashion were perfectly in sync.
One evening, after inspiring conversation (and maybe a few drinks) the idea for a modern wedding photography company was born. A wedding photography company that encompasses all of their joint passions and skills. As Gui and Joe were walking home form dinner that evening, they were discussing potential names for their new company. Their breakthrough came as they approached their building, at 98 Clay Street. 98 Wedding Co., the perfect way to pay homage to this love story that started there just one floor apart.
