Meet the Team
Andrea Yriarte
Founder / Creative DirectorHi, I’m Andrea.
I’m the filmmaker, editor, creative director, strategist, producer, coffee-fueled brainstormer, and usually the one replying to your emails at midnight because an idea randomly appeared in my head.
I’ve always been deeply drawn to stories. Not the polished highlight reel version of people, but the real ones. The quiet moments. The emotional moments. The behind-the-scenes moments people usually overlook.
That’s what eventually became the foundation of ARKYVS.
A lot of my creative inspiration comes from documentary filmmaking, founder stories, community culture, cinema, music, and everyday life. I love visuals that feel emotional and intentional instead of overly staged or disconnected.
I care deeply about making people feel seen through our work.
Whether we’re filming a crowded community event, documenting a founder’s story, capturing a wedding, or creating content for a growing brand, I want the final result to feel personal to the people involved. Not generic. Not copy-pasted. Not something that could belong to anyone else.
Outside of work, I’m usually collecting way too many creative ideas at once, editing late into the night, studying branding and storytelling psychology, reorganizing our Notion pages for the hundredth time, or romanticizing simple moments that probably don’t need to be cinematic but somehow become cinematic anyway.
Fun Fact:
I physically cannot “just film one thing.” Every idea somehow turns into a full creative direction within minutes!
Production AssistantAngeline Dee
Hi, I’m Angeline.
I support ARKYVS behind the scenes during productions, events, and creative shoots, helping keep things organized, smooth, and running efficiently while the team focuses on capturing the moments that matter most.
From assisting during live events to helping manage details on shoot days, I love being part of the creative energy that comes with storytelling and community-centered work.
One of my favorite parts about working with ARKYVS is seeing how intentional every project is. There’s always heart behind what the team creates, and it’s inspiring watching stories come together in real time through film, people, and shared experiences.
Outside of productions, I enjoy creative spaces, community events, discovering new coffee spots, and supporting projects that bring people together.
Fun Fact:
I’m usually somewhere nearby making sure things stay calm, organized, and on schedule while everyone else is deep in creative mode.
Aldric Yriarte
Co-Founder / Production & OperationsHi, I’m Aldric.
I’m the calm half of ARKYVS. I help lead production, operations, logistics, filming support, gear management, and the overall flow behind our shoots and projects.
While Andrea is usually deep in the creative vision, I’m the one helping make sure everything comes together smoothly behind the scenes.
What I love most about this work is the human side of it all.
Meeting passionate founders.
Watching artists interact with people who genuinely love their work.
Seeing communities gather together.
Capturing moments that people will look back on years from now.
There’s something really meaningful about being trusted to document those experiences.
I also genuinely enjoy the teamwork behind what we do. Building this together as husband and wife has made every project feel personal to us, no matter the size.
Outside of ARKYVS, I’m usually studying real estate, organizing gear, researching ways to improve our systems, supporting Andrea’s latest creative idea, or making sure we actually eat during edit days.
Fun Fact:
I’m usually the one reminding Andrea to stop filming and enjoy the event too.
