    Highly recommend!!!

    Carlos was so great to work with for our wedding in Santa Cruz in November 2025 and engagement photoshoot! He is a great photographer. We loved his style of photography- candid, natural and sentimental. He is extremely professional and communicative. He set expectations from the start and followed established timelines so there was no second guessing of when we would receive our photos. We appreciated his laid back, yet direct and efficient style which worked well with our big wedding party and families and especially for me, as a camera-shy bride. I highly recommend his services!

    10/10 Everyone loves our wedding photos

    Carlos took both our engagement and wedding photos and we couldn’t be happier with how they turned out. Not only did he perfectly capture the moments we had discussed, he also has such a great eye for encapsulating the quite, loud, and sweet candid moments too. Not to mention, he has been so responsive and had such a fast turnaround time! We would highly recommend working with Carlos! And in case my review isn't enough to help you make your decision, here are some actual quotes from our wedding party when we shares the online album: "They took sooo many too like this is the most comprehensive wedding album I’ve ever seen” and “I can’t believe how good this is” and “This looks like it’s straight out of a movie scene ”

    Perfectly Captured Our Love

    Carlos did such a beautiful job as our wedding photographer. I feel he truly captured the essence of who we are as a couple, and it showed through the moments he captured. His photographic timing was impecable. I can’t stop looking through the gallery and smiling! He captured the raw emotions and perfectly unfiltered moments in time that will serve as the best memories. Thank you Carlos for the truly beautiful work of art you have produced. You are so greatly appreciated!

    Loved Our Wedding Photos!

    Carlos was our wedding reception photographer. He was straight to the point about his photography/editing style and made sure to ask us what we wanted to capture on our special day beforehand. My partner and I are beyond happy with the results. He paid lots of attention to detail and the pictures came out beautiful. I must say I am usually not all good angles, but he worked his magic and I am in love with our pictures. The images are timeless and very beautiful, definitely captured the many interactions and emotions of the day. Very quick turnaround as well. Very professional, communicative, reliable, accommodating and overall it was a great experience working with him. We 100% recommend Carlos for your next event. He will not disappoint.

    Exceptional and Timeless

    My now husband and I have hired Carlos multiple times and have been amazed by his work each time. We have had the please of working with Carlos for our engagement, wedding and graduation pictures. The images are captured in a manner that feels so raw and special, exactly as they feel in the moment. Would 100% recommend hiring Carlos for your next event!
