Moments,made cinematic.
Films and photographs for bar and bat mitzvahs, weddings and the events that define a family, crafted by one team for over 35 years.
The studio
For more than thirty-five years and over ten thousand families, we have been the calm presence in the room. We catch the glance before the hora, the tremble in a speech, the last song of the night, and turn them into films and photographs you will one day hand down.

Our story
A name thatmeans something.
Luria Visuals is named for the late wife of our founder. That is the spirit we bring to every event: we photograph your family the way we would want ours remembered.
Every photographer, cinematographer and editor on our team was trained by Michael and Russ. We do not book strangers for the day. We have worked side by side for years, so the crew at your event moves as one, and your finished films and albums carry one point of view.
And everything is custom. Before your date we learn what you want to see and hear, then we shoot and edit with exactly that in mind.

How it works
Before, during,and long after.
- Before
We get to know you.
A conversation about the moments that matter, the people who must be in frame, and the look you love. We build your package around that, not the other way around.
- During
We disappear into the day.
Traditional portraits and candid storytelling, multiple camera angles and professional lighting that flatters without taking over your décor.
- After
We craft the heirloom.
Our editors shape every film and image to the style you chose, so what you receive feels like your day and nobody else's.
