I   Meet Vanja

Hi! I'm Vanja,

the heart behind The Frame Fatale.

The Frame Fatale is an alternative and moody wedding photography and videography team based in Phoenix, with over 14 years of experience capturing weddings. My style is rich color, deep shadows, and real emotion over stiff poses.

I believe every wedding is a unique and precious moment in time, and I take pride in creating images that hold onto those memories for a lifetime. I'm known for my attention to detail. Every part of your day, from the dress to the decor, was chosen for a reason, and I make sure it's captured so you can relive it for years to come.

On your wedding day, I direct the whole experience alongside a dedicated video team, so your photos and film tell one seamless story. I'm fun, easygoing, and professional, and I approach every wedding with a smile and a sense of humor, so you feel at ease and your true personalities shine through in every frame.

If you want artistry, a little edge, and a lot of heart on your day, I'd love to tell your story.

Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to book your consultation!

V   Love Notes

Kind words

We wanted a darker and moodier vibe to our photos… Vanja and Gabriel have the exact style we were searching for… These photos are more than I ever could have imagined and I will cherish them for the rest of our lives.
Sara 2024
Vanja captured beautiful pictures when we weren't even expecting it… Vanja captures the most precious moments of our wedding.
Cierra 2025
Vanja and Gabriel really blew me away with their creative talent and professionalism… I interviewed several photographers and [The Frame Fatale]'s final work and commitment to our day was worth every penny spent.
Shannon 2024
They were professional but friendly and easy to get along with… I couldnt have asked for two better people who it feel like just best friends were taking our photos and video!
Candice 2025
Vanja and Gabriel were the absolute best and not only were they professional, but they are funny, relatable and personable… We will forever love them as family!
Mayra 2024
From the getting ready to the sparkler exit Vanja was there catching every moment. She was there for me right before I walked down the aisle helping me breathe through an almost panic attack.
Samantha 2021
Vanja went above and beyond her photographer duties even giving me the back of her earring to fix my own earring…
Crystal 2023
Vanja & Gabriel Montaño not only made our beautiful day fun and bright but they were able to capture every moment in our wedding.
