Hi, I’m Marlyn Garcia.

The cinematographer, photographer, and storyteller behind M5 Studios. inspired by the beauty of real moments.

My journey began in Los Angeles, where I worked in the film industry and discovered my love for bringing stories to life through a camera. Being surrounded by filmmaking, creativity, and unforgettable stories inspired me to see everyday moments differently, as scenes from a movie waiting to be captured.

With 16 years of experience in photography, I’ve learned that the most meaningful memories are often found in the in-between moments: the genuine laughter, the quiet glances, the emotions that happen naturally. My goal is to preserve those moments in a way that feels timeless and true to you.

I found my passion for wedding filmmaking through my love for storytelling. Every couple has a unique story, and I believe your wedding day deserves to be captured like a film filled with emotion, personality, and all the little moments you’ll want to relive for years to come.

As a creative, my inspiration also comes from traveling and experiencing different cultures around the world. Every place, person, and story I encounter continues to shape the way I see life and create art.

I’m here to capture your story… not just how it looked, but how it felt.
