Pranav Volety
co-founder, Digital Director
Hi! My name is Pranav and I’ve been working on creative projects of all scopes and spheres since 2020. What began as a passion for visual storytelling has grown into a career that spans weddings, events, and large-scale productions. I’ve directed and managed content for national campaigns, music performances, and fashion shows, while also pouring my heart into wedding work: capturing the small details and big emotions that make each celebration unique. Over the years, I’ve worked with many couples to document their day with artistry, care, and professionalism. My approach blends creative direction with a personal touch, making sure every couple feels comfortable and every memory is preserved beautifully. If you’re looking for someone who combines experience, creativity, and genuine passion for weddings, I’d be honored to be part of your day!
Luke Pierce
co-founder, Lead Videographer
Hi, I’m Luke and I’m the lead videographer here. I’ve spent years filming in dynamic, fast-paced settings—everything from concerts to national campaigns—and that experience helps me capture weddings with energy, precision, and creativity. I’ve filmed dozens of weddings, each with its own story and rhythm. My goal is always the same: to make couples feel comfortable and to deliver films that reflect the joy and emotion of their day. Along with filming, I manage our videography team to ensure every angle, detail, and moment is covered. Whether it’s the big walk down the aisle or the small candid laughs in between, I love creating films that couples can revisit for a lifetime.
Ben Westin
Videographer
Hi, I’m Ben. I'm a videographer with a background in creative technology and media production. I’ve spent time helping schools and city communities share their stories in ways that inform, inspire, and bring people closer together. I bring that same dedication to meaningful storytelling to every wedding I film. To me, weddings are about connection. This connection is not just between two people, but also between families, friends, and entire communities. My goal is to capture those big, once-in-a-lifetime moments, along with the small, candid ones that make your day truly yours. With a blend of technical skill and a focus on authentic moments, I aim to capture the joy, emotion, and personality of your wedding day. The timeless moments you can return to forever.

Hiring Studio Agape was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. They didn’t just take photos; they told the story of our day in a way we’ll treasure forever. From the quiet moments before the ceremony to the last song of the night, every image feels vibrant. They blend in effortlessly, so instead of stiff or posed shots, we got genuine, emotional glimpses of our friends and family. The laughter, the tears, the little moments in between. It was all captured with great care. The photos look fantastic. The outdoor shots look bright and dreamy, while the indoor reception pictures are lively without being overexposed or blurry. You can tell that this team has a tremendous eye for composition and lighting, regardless of the setting. On top of the photos, the video they created is incredible. Watching it feels like stepping back into the day. The way they blended the vows, the laughter during speeches, and the energy of the dance floor makes it feel cinematic while still being completely authentic. It’s something we will cherish for years, and it perfectly complements the photo gallery. Another aspect of this experience that stood out was how easy it was to work with them. Calm, organized, and thoughtful, they made the whole process enjoyable. We never felt rushed or directed in a way that pulled us out of the moment, yet he still produced a collection of images we didn’t even know he was there to capture. Now, weeks later, we keep looking back at the photos and reliving the entire day. They’re not just pictures to us, they’re memories frozen in time, and they’re priceless. We can’t recommend Studio Agape enough to anyone looking for a group that will go the extra mile.

We could not be happier with our wedding video! From start to finish, the experience of working with Luke and the team was seamless. He captured all of the most important moments of our day while also weaving in the small, candid details that made it so special. I appreciate how flexible they were and willing to adjust the video to our preference/style. If you’re looking for someone who cares deeply about capturing your day in a meaningful way, we can’t recommend AGAPE enough. We’ll treasure this video for the rest of our lives.
