Anniversary wedding photography was one of the first things my wife and I talked about. We decided to hire Roberto. Based on his work alone, I knew there was no way we could have anyone else. He has a unique, photo-artistic style with an eye for catching things that other photographers seem to miss. Roberto communication was great. We planned the anniversary wedding ourselves, so my wife and I had lots of questions for him as far as the day-of goes. We had to change the ceremony date a few times and he was totally flexible and helpful. We appreciated his fast responses and easy-going nature. My favorite part of working with Roberto was on the wedding day. He got along so well with everyone. He wasn't afraid to recommend the best places for us to stand, sit, or dance. His suggestions helped make the photos much more beautiful and put us at ease. Most of all, he was easy going in a way that made everyone comfortable. Everyone STILL talks about how wonderful Roberto was. He had our photos ready within the promised time and they turned out to be nice. Roberto really does know how to capture moments. Every time, I look at our photos, I can't help but smile because he captured just how happy we were on that day. The price was totally reasonable. With photographers, I believe you get what you pay for. My wife and I are very satisfied and pleased with the quality of the service we paid for. Roberto is worth every penny we paid. I wouldn't bat an eye to hire him again if I had an event that needed a photographer. Since the moment our photos have been online, we haven't stopped hearing guests tell us how amazing his photography was and how well he captured the essence of the day. Several people commented to me that the photographer was amazing. I can't say enough wonderful things about Roberto. If you are looking for an out-of-the-box photographer with excellent people skills, look no further. Roberto is your guy. read more

My husband and I got married on 5/28/2017 and Roberto was our photographer. Not only did he do our wedding, but beforehand he had done our engagement pictures. All I can say is Roberto is truly amazing! He went to whatever location we wanted for both sets of pictures and was down for whatever we wanted to do! He had great ideas to do with places, lighting, poses etc. He captured all moments of our big day including stressful ones, happy ones, and tearful ones - but this will help us remember ever single bit of that special day. He also helped calm me down as my nerves were through the roof! He always knew what to say and how to make everything seem like it was going to be okay. I was so happy to have him as part of our wedding and at the end it felt like he was family! He was with us from sun up to sun down! Thank you so much Roberto we could not have done it without you! Oh and did I mention our pictures are absolutely gorgeous and several of our vendors want to feature them on their social media sites???? :-) read more

My wife and I were married 10/1/2016. We chose Roberto to be our photographer for our big day, I was extremely impressed! Roberto was great from start to finish! He did a great job helping us to plan the day and schedule time for all the pictures we wanted to capture. My wife found many pictures online and we asked Roberto to re-create them for us. Not only did he get the pictures we really wanted but he also got a ton of other very cool pictures! You can tell he takes pride in his craft with the way he sets you up in each shot. The pictures came out incredible! We are receiving so many compliments on them. Roberto was very reasonably priced versus some of the other photographers we met with before our wedding. I would recommend him for wedding and engagement photos to all my friends and family. Thank you for capturing our special day! We will be able to relive the day through these pictures for the rest of our lives. read more

We got married on 5/27/17 and could not have been more pleased with Roberto as our photographer. He was communicative throughout the entire process and was prompt and professional the day of. Roberto was great at taking command of our bridal party and organizing everyone for posed shots as well as capturing the sweet/touching candid shots - he really has an eye for photography. I'm sure Roberto is packed throughout wedding season and his timelines for delivering final photos would vary, but he was extremely fast with delivering our final photos!
