From our very first consultation call, Ruben impressed us with his professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine passion for his craft. He took the time to understand our vision and made us feel completely confident that he would capture every important moment of our wedding day, memories we’ll be able to relive for years to come through his lens.
On the day of the wedding, both Ruben and his videographer, Guillermo (“Memo”), were incredibly punctual, professional, and supportive. My wife and I are not natural in front of a camera, we never know how to pose or even what to do with our hands, but Ruben made the entire experience feel effortless. He guided us with confidence and helped us feel comfortable.
He made sure we got every shot we wanted with our family and friends, while also capturing so many beautiful candid and intimate moments throughout the day. Looking through the photos and footage, it’s clear how much care and thought went into preserving our memories.
If you're looking for a wedding photographer who truly cares about his clients, is passionate about his work, and goes above and beyond to deliver exceptional results, Ruben is the person to hire. Huge thanks as well to Memo for helping capture our day so perfectly.
We couldn't be happier with our experience. 10 out of 10 HIGHLY recommended! ❤️

Ruben was amazing. We interviewed about four different photographers before speaking with him, and as soon as we did, we knew he would be the perfect fit.
He is incredibly detail-oriented, stayed right on schedule throughout the entire day, and remained so calm and steady even when I wasn’t. That kind of presence made a huge difference.
Many of my friends who have recently gotten married have shared that photographers often leave shortly after the dance floor opens, but Ruben and his videographer stayed until the very end. I truly appreciate that commitment, and I can’t wait to see all the incredible memories they captured for us.
Almost every single guest commented on his kindness, attentiveness, and how available he was throughout the night. At one point, a friend even lost her wedding ring in the grass, and Ruben immediately stepped in, pulled out his light, and helped us search until we found it.
It honestly felt like we had a friend photographing our wedding. I’m so grateful for the entire experience and cannot recommend him highly enough.

The photos are absolutely stunning and reflect all emotions that we had during the day and atmosphere of our wedding. Looking through them allows us to relive every special moment all over again.
We are incredibly grateful for the memories and we recommend him to any couple!

From the very first conversation with Rubén, we knew we had made the right choice. He brings an incredible energy that made us feel comfortable and at ease even before the big day, his communication was crystal clear and he came full of ideas and proposals throughout the entire planning process.
We had never organized an event of this scale before, so we honestly didn't know what to expect. His experience became a constant guide that allowed us to be fully present and enjoy every single moment without a worry. His style is a beautiful blend of two worlds: directed photography and documentary photography capturing not just the moments, but the real emotions behind them.
During the couple session, he helped us relax and flow naturally, and the results were simply spectacular. The day we received our photos, we were overwhelmed with joy reliving that beautiful day through his images far exceeded anything we could have imagined. We recommend him without hesitation! Thank you for everything, Rubén.

Ruben was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. His photos are beyond beautiful, but what sets him apart is the experience he creates. He brought such a calm, steady presence to a day that can easily feel overwhelming, and because of that, we were actually able to be present and enjoy it.
He completely understood our vision and captured it perfectly, without making anything feel staged or unnatural. Every photo feels like us.
On top of that, Ruben is incredibly honest and thoughtful. He helped guide us to the right package for our needs and even saved us money along the way. You can tell he genuinely cares about his clients and the work he delivers.
We couldn’t recommend him more.

We had the absolute best experience with our wedding videographer and photographer in Mexico. From the very beginning, they created such a calm, low-pressure environment that made it easy to just be present and enjoy the day. They made me feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, which is not something that comes naturally to me at all.
Their ability to capture genuine moments without making anything feel forced was incredible. It felt more like we were just living in the moment rather than being directed all day. And the results… truly beyond anything we could have imagined. Every photo and video feels so natural, emotional, and beautifully put together.
If you’re looking for a team that is professional, easygoing, and insanely talented, I cannot recommend them enough. They made our wedding memories feel even more special than we remembered them.

Ruben is a true professional with an incredible eye for detail. He did an amazing job capturing the essence of our wedding day without ever making the photography the main focus. We never felt 'directed' or over-posed; instead, he captured the natural flow of the day beautifully. The final photos are breathtaking and truly reflect the joy of the occasion. Highly recommend Ruben for any couple who wants great photos while staying present in the moment!

Ruben was nothing short of amazing. From our initial FaceTime interview to our final "Adios," he made us feel welcomed, comfortable, and truly like part of his family.
On the wedding day, he kept our vision at the forefront and made us feel incredibly special. His timing was impeccable, and the photos he captured are unforgettable—he is worth every penny. Ruben’s ability to understand the connection between a couple makes the entire experience feel so natural. We would recommend him a thousand times over and can't wait to see him again on our next trip to Riviera Maya!
With Love,
